If I re- mained here I must seek amnesty of the government’ for the P it and I must ask its protection for the future; if it yielded me that I was bound in honor to return to my allegiance and make a good citizen if 1 could, (Cries of “Good” and cheers) Hence I have — advocated every measure from that ‘hime till this for reconstruction, (Applause.) Wuen the President of the United States proposed his plan I advised our people to accept it, because we hud fallen, and we had no other power to ne- gotiate with but with him. He did not call Congress touether. When Congress, which had the legitimate couirol of this question—(cheers and prolonged ay Plause)—proposed the constitutioual amendment to the Southern States | advised such friends as sought ly Option on the question that it was better to ac- cept it; but the feeling was se overwhelming against it Mat no voice could sustain it, Then there was the constitutional amendment, There was but one issue ia it, aud that was the suf- trace question, and that Congress Jeft with the States to settle for themseives. If we voted jor it with the black race we might count thom in our representation; if we refused to vote w.tit them we could not count them. That was right. (Cheers, great applause and crics of “Right.”) With ence to the federal debt there was no question, e Was bit One other important question, and ‘that was Lae sand aa that disqualified me and oth- ere with me from holding office. That was no living issue. J, and others like me, will soon pass from the stage, and if we do there are other and betier men to take our piace. Therefore, in my judg- ment, we acted very injudictousiy. What followed? ‘the Supplementary Keconstruction acts. I advised on the passage of the first of these that we suould accept it. Ai that time !t would have been easy for me to live. Without vanity I may say I had some popularity in my State, and had fowr tines been eected its Executive, and 1 might have re- tained and courted popularity; but duty dic- tated @ different course. I followed it, and have received the hearty denunciation of my vople, or @ iarge proportion of them, for ving done so, I have been denounced as an enemy of my race and @ traitor to the cause which has wrought s0 much. I-do not think so, I think my course more honorable than that of the man who was 4 rebel and sought the same amnesty that J recetve and the same protection from the govern- ment I receive, and then stays in its bosom Pee w sting it When opportunity offers, (Cries of “Good | v* and applause.)

The Vir- — and Kentucky resolutions, as. I anderstand ein, have always been the very platiorm upon which the democracy had stood; but when tuat piatform was knocked from under my party I had nothing left to take hoid on. As I understood the doctrines of democracy—they were State sovereignty and the right of secession. The sword has esia'- lished a different doctrine, and hence it ts that 1 am no longer und by allegiance to the democratic . The Hamiftonian and Webs‘erian construction of the constitution has been established by the sword, and I have acquiesced in that, and I find the republican standing on the platform to-day that has been al loned by the democratic party. That naturally ieads me into the republican party. (Cheers.) I Know that is a very unpopular 4 ctrine in the South, but 1 believe it ietrue. But jet me tell you, ir. President and gentie- men, that there are many eae te in the ‘Bout, theré are large num of origi- thal democrats, there are large numbers of orginal seccssiontstein the South, who to-day stand ‘as firmly by the republican par and will support the great Captain of tle eral Grant.

THE PENNSYLVANIA DELEGATION, Gen. Ler, of Loulatana, chairman of the Committee on Credentiais, reported the names of delegates from the several States. In reference to Pennaylvania he said there appeared fifty-nine delegates, whereas that State was entitied to only fifty-two votes, The committee recommended that the fifty-nine delegates be admitted to seats upon the floor of the Convention, and that they be authorized to cast the Aifty-two votes to which the State is entitied, such vetng the wish of the Pennsylvania delegation.

(Cries of “No! no!) If the Conven- tion desire to annul my motion of course that ts in order, I will confine it, however, to the Presidency. Mr. Tuompson, of Indiana—I fear the Convention may be led to act under misapprehension. I think I am authorized to say, as Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, that you may reasonably expect a report from us very early to-morrow morning. There is no reason why we should be engaged until to-morrow afternoon. It is right, therefore, and proper that you should understand how we stand before we vote on that proposition, Mr. BARTHOLEMEW, of Pennsylvania—I move to amend the moion of the gentleman from Rhode Island br ovine that this Conventton do now pro- ceed to the nomination of candidates for President -~ Viee-t resident of the United States. (Cries of “No, no”) Mr. Coes, of North Carolina—I move to lay the motion and the amendment on the table. He with- drew it on learning from the Chair that this wouid table the entire report of the committee, Mr. Van Zandt’s amendment was then rejected. The question recurred on the adoption of the report. Mr. VAN ZANpT moved to strike out the words “the national Union party” and substitute in their stead ‘national republican party.” (Cries of “Good.”) He sald—We fought under that flag for many years. Our brothers, our sons and our fathers have died under it. We have achieved yictory under it; we elected Abraham Lincoln under it, and we buried him under it; and I hope, gir, that we will not call this @ national Union party; that means nothing at all. The Union is restored; the Union is entire; and ours is @ national republican party. J trust the Convention will allow me—(ap- rete mrad Sy I represent one of the males States in the Union, and one with a very limited number of electoral votes, to propose this to one very important and desirable amendment—one sir, 11 which | believe a'l the New England States will con- cur heart and soul, and one in which Isincerely hope the gieat and almost boundless West and South will join. ‘The PRvstpENT—In the call for this Convention the title is ‘‘National Union Republican Party.’ Mr. LOGAN suggested that the name be the “Na- tional Union Republican Party.” ir.

Mr. Van Zandt’s amendment as thus modified was carried and the report adopted, It was moved that when the Convention adjourn it adjourn to this place to-morrow at ten o'clock. President announced that copies of a cam- paign song had been left on the stage for distribu- tion among tae delegates. (Cries of “Song, song."’) Bat the President announced that those who pro- posed to sing preferred not todo so until after the nominations are made. Thereupon the Convention adjourned until ten o'clock to-morrow iorning. THE DEMOCRACY AND CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE, Movements in His Favor—Opinions of a Prominent Democratic Politician—Chase and Hancock the Ticket for the Fourth of July Convention. WASHINGTON, May 20, 1968, Nothing strikes the uninitiated in Washington with greater surprise than the extraordinary spirit mani- fested within the past few days among democratic politiclans to push prominently into the foreground the claims and advantages of Chief Justice Chase as the Presidential candidate of the conservative masses, ‘The astonishment arises from the apparent sudden- ness of the movement, but there are those who are weil aware that Chief Justice Chase and the demo- cratic party have been drawing by slow but cer- fore acted with the radical party, and even one of the prominent candidates for chairman of the Con- vention was In the days of the party an active and conspicuous Know Nothing. ‘The eight hundred or one thousand delegates com- posing the Convention was called to order by Mr. Joseph M. Wightman, one of the State Central Com- mittee. In putting the question as to who should be the presiding oMfcer of the Convention Colonel Charles G. Greene, of Boston, was nominated. There ‘Was some opposition and a desire was expressed that a ballot should be had. This feeling was in the minority, however, and Colonel Greene was chosen President a moment later by @ unanimous vote and amid h cheering. Colonel Greene, in taking the chair, said he was happy ‘to see 80 Many smi indicating that the heart of the democracy does not despgir s0 long ‘as there is the power of action. For somé years the democrats have labored under misrepresentation; but they have labored in the hope that their true conduct would be known aud that would be triumphant. ‘They had always labored to vindicate the constitu- tion—never to sustain slavery or secession—and in this they had been steadfast ‘and faithful, notwith- at opponents had misrepresented them. ‘The fact, he added, ie still on record that even the democrats of Massachusetts have sent more men to the war than the radicals, and the same may be sald ‘of the whole country. The democrats of the East, of the North and of the West were the men who filled democratic graves. He added then, in con- clusion, that he would not dwell upon such matters, for everything indicated that the democracy of the country was advancing on to victory, and they would soon clear out those who have fastened upon the Capone gee only for the purpose of sucking out its Ife blood. Some preliminary business was then transacted, after which a motion was made to appoint a Com- mittee on Resolutions. It was evident that about a third of the Convention was 0} to making any declarations, but the other two-thirds, believing in sending gome resolutions abroad, voted and carried their scheme. There subsequently followed some degultory discussion in which the minority succeeded in making the majority believe that it was more pru- dent to work than to pass resolutions, and the whole rad was then negatived by being laid on the table, A committee to collect and count ballots for dele- gates at large was then chosen, and while they were erforming their duties a call was made for Mr. John Soimey Adams, the defeated democratic eandidate for Governor last year. Mr. Adams took tite plat- form and returned his thanks for the support he had at the hands of Massachusetts democrats last year, but declined to make any remarks upon the topic of ae day for the reason that it was inexpedient at this time. The committee being further delayed in counting, Mr. McIntosh, of Haverhill, improved the moments of sence by offering the following Pendleton reso- lution:— . Resolved, That the democracy of Massachuastts, feeling the fullest confidence in the ability, integrity and statesmansbip of George H. Pendleton, of ‘Ohio, and it larger number of votes can be concentr: any other man in the party, we therefore first choice for President of the United States. ‘The resolution evidently did not touch the popular chord of the Convention; for it was received with hisses and immediately laid upon the table by an almost unantmous vote, The following resolution, which also came from a acleense not of the majority, met with the same fate Resolved, That the delegation from Massachusetts tothe National Democratic Convention be instructed to cast the Votes of the whole delegation in accordance with the vote of A majority of the delegates. tain stages nearer to each other ever since the time Andrew Johnson took his stand against a reve- lutionary Congress.

The Fourth district delegates made choice of Peter Harvey, off Boston, and Thomas Whittemore, of Cambridge, and as alter- nates E. C. Barnes, of Chelsea, and A. 0. Brewster, of Boston.

The following is an abstract of a lengthy article published April 20 in the Nacional of Lima: In May, 1867, Don J. Arnaldo Marquez was sent from Peru as Consul General for New York. He ar- rived about the time that the news was announced of Spanish squadrons having sailed from Cuba and Spain for Rig Janeiro and Montevideo, The appro- priations made by the Spanish Cortés for a second expedition to the Pacific authorized the presumption that these squadrons were to go round the Horn eventually. A few days thereafter the New York papers published a list of iron-clads which the United States government was about to offer for sale, There were only two of these fit for Peruvian service—the Oneota and Ca- tawba. Consul Marquez at once proposed to his government the purchase of both, en the Chileno- Peruvian navy could make some bye a the Spanish squadron, which included sev iron- olads. ‘Fhe Peruvian Congress at once authorized the use of from five to six millions by Marquez for the purchase of those war vessels and material. Marquez Neo set about ascertaining whether the American government had become cold towards Peruvian interests on account of the refusal of Mr. Seward's offers to mediate, He then addressed the New York agent of the builders of said monitors and learned that the vessels were for sale under circumstances similar to those of the Dunderburg. The American government fae thismode of procedure. The firm of Alex. wift & Co. claimed over $200,000 of the United States on the ground that the value of the paper money for which they had contracted to build the Oneota and Catawba had depreciated to that amount since the siguing of their contract. After having become satisted of the right and authority of the agent to sell the vessels Marquez sought to ascertain their fitness for service. Ample proofs of this were forwarded by Marquez to the Peruvian government. At the same time he made the following proposition:— That the two monitors be sent to Havana, whose fortifications could not keep ,them from entering the harbor, aa they are mounted with only a few 200-pounders; that they should capture or destroy the Spanish "wooden fleet there; that the commander should issue an ultimatum — ing Spain to return the three millions ol lars extorted from Peru, Janunty 27) to9g, Ulreateh mevana with thé fate Of Valparaiso. returning from Cuba they were to release the Rayo at Carthagena and capture the Spanish frigate Gerona that was watching her, The only serious resistance that could be offered to the two monitors at Havana wou.d come froin a half-dozen 200-pound- ers at the foot of Morre Castie, Marquez Contracted for the monitors on the follow- ing terms:—Each vessel was to cost $1,000,000 in picenbacks , the équivalent to $700,000 in specie. They kal cost the United States $600,000 in gold each. Each vessel's armament and ammunition (500 pro- Jectties), provisions for six months and about 2,000 tons coal were to cost $175,000 In greenbacks. The sellers were to get them ready for sea at @ cost to themselves of about $50,000 in gold. ‘The sellers were to give security from the three lead- ing banks in New York. Payments were to be made in two instaiments—one at sixty days’ sight, the other at four months, without interest. The contract was to be ratified by Peru and sixty days were al- lowed for the purpose. Marquez was to give 200, in greenbacks, cash down, to indemnify the sellers in cane by a refusal of Peru they should lose the chance of selling to other governments the two monitors, a8 several were bargaining for their purchase, To close the aifair Marquez and Mr, Gustave Ricker, one of the partners in the house of Alexander Swift & Co, went to Lima. ‘The amount for indemnification tiads President Prado refuse to sanction the contract. Thep Marquez presented Ricker to Prado to see if a mofe advantageous contract could be made. Marquez refused to act as intérpreter be- tween the parties, and Don Antonio Gar. cia sy | Garcla was summoned. Minister Hovey refused to have Sm fe to do with the matter until Prado explained that it was as @ per. sonal friend he wished to consult with him, and stated that he considered the contract an onerous one, Hovey expressed his surprise that the vessels could be gol on 80 favorable terms, but stated that he had no doubt another contract could be made ‘with Ricker and that he believed the contract of Marquez was of advantage to Peru. ‘The following bases for @ new contract were then drawn up:—Ricker was to receive $200,000 in advance; the balance to be paid in bills on England accept by Thomas Lachambre, Sescan Vaideavellano, the National Company and the Bunk of Gibbs at twelve and eighteen months’ time. These bills were to bear mx per cent interest. In case the vessels were to be delivered outside of the United States’ jarisdiction, $200,000 on the price were to be paid down. The of Prado to Hloveg tat Marquez had exceed- ed his authority made the latter resign his Consulate. On. the balance of hia accounts $175 were due him by Peru, which has not yet been paid. some reement took piace shortly after be- tween the parties owing to the fact that $350,000 were paid on the new contract, the treasury was opened at eleven P. M. to make the payment, and the entry in the books Was for $200,000 to tie initials of Go Ricker, the fail name not appearing. The only at the payment were the Minister Pas Soidan, Garcia y Garcia, Ricker, the Trea- surer, and the Cashier. Garcia took letters to the United States for £200,000 sterling; and last Janu- ary or February Captain Moore took £100,000 ‘ so that Peru has spent two and @ third miliions o! dollara, and has not yet got the monitors, 80 that It seems that the new contract has cost Pert about as much tm epecte as Marquez would bave in green backs.
