It was, in fact, all random talk—a boisterous and ineffectual waste of time and words—a simoon of straws showing @ concentration of political breezes from every direc- tion. ,At the rooms of the different State dele- gations was more moderation of utterance and dignity of caucusing for to-day’s pre- ceedings im the Convention, Some trouble is apprehended on the subject of a permanent organization, but this is looked upon as a mere trifle to the grand tug of war to follow. Chase, Pendleton and Hendricks are unquestionably re- ge as the strongest candidates now in the field. it is the general conviction, from the diversity ot sentiment on candidates pervading the delegates, that a stormy and exciting contest may be looked for. Somme taik about States bolting unless things go to suit them, and it taking several days to accomplish @ nomination; but there 1s a strong paci- ficatory clement who believe that the present pollti- cal crisis of the country, the great and vital issues at stake aud the necessity of harmonious action in the party to msure fts success In the coming Presidential contest will Induce prompt and harmonious action in the Convention—a speedy agreeing upon the can- didate, to be followed by prompt and energetic ac- lion of the consolidated democracy of the country to Win in the coming race and defeat Grant and radi- caleam. Convention Gossip. Most of the editors of the provincial papers are in town, Lat their issues are about the same old two- ani-sixpences as when they were at home. Johnson stock is looking up. Alabama goes for him; while Doolittle, Cooper, Parsons and others of the President's most intimate friends are working vealously in his behalf. The President’s amnesty proclamation does not create much sensation among the delegates. Most ef them were prepared for it. John. Breckinridge, who is expected from Canada, has not yet taken a seat in the Convention. Dependence and trust are placed by the Southern- ers upon the action of the New York delegation. Among the “solid men of Boston” in the delega- tion from that city is Peter Harvey, an able and in- Auential representaffve of the commercial intsrests of New England and the confidential! friend of Dan- fel Webster. : Several of the most active and energetic young men in the republican party of New Engiand are here zealously working for Chase. Colone) George W: McCook, chairman of the Ohio delegation, was a strong friend of Douglas, but, says “Occasional,’’ he is the leader of those who are ®worp to support Pendleton, the sympathizer with that rebellion denounced by Douglas every hour he lived after Sumter fell. Colonel Thomas B. Florence, Major Jo. Severns, of Pennsylvania; Colonel James M. Cavanagh, of Mon- tana; Colonel Briggs, of Massachusetts, and a num- ber of other delegates are at the Westminster. Sanford E. Church has many strong triends in the Convention. Mr. Vallandigham telegraphs from New York to hie paper, the Dayton Ledger, that “the prospects of harmony as to the platform and candidates are g0o0d;’. that the Pendleton men are bitter on Hen- @ricks and Seymour, and that the South will ac- % quiesce in the nominee, whoever he may be; that Pendieton’s chances seem the best, and that at a meeting of the Ohio delegation the declination of Mr. Hendricks was officially announced. The latter statement needs confirmation. The Pendietonians were in higher spirits last even- ‘ng. They feel that by introducing Judge Thurman, Mr. Pugh, Mr. Vallandigham and twoor three others of ability and political adroitness into their delega- tion, in lieu of men of jess note, their strength will be enhanced. But is there not danger of going down on one side as well as up on the other? Whether they like it or not Vallandigham’s addition to the @elegation will be taken as evidence that he and Pendleton are in the same boat and urged along upon the same unpopular anti-war current. There- fore the harder will it be for Pendleton to work him- eelf up on the war tide. Chase has undoubtedly nine-tenths of the members ef anumber of delegations; but they have been so canvassed, manipulated and humbugged that it is doubtful whether he will make much of a show in the early ballotings. The idea of a majority of the Eastern delegations is that with Chase they can carry a number of Congressional districts and re- deem several State governmems—even radical-ridden Massachusetts. The idea of most of the Western delegations is that Chase cannot carry a single State ‘West of the Alleghanies and will be an incubus to ‘their cause. The Church movement produced some sensation yesterday, but as the democrats have always been opposed to the alliance of Church and State itis doubéful whether it will end successfully. The Old and the New School brimstone Presbyterians have been so long discussing, unsuccessfully, the subject of aMiation that a similar effort on the part of such oid political sinners as tne hard shell and soft shell Gemocracy is a problem not easily solved, Some of the delegates declare that the New York and Pennsylvania delegations mean to put up the Convention at auction and sell it out to the highest bidder. Several active Chase men have retired from the fleld temporarily, possibly to recuperate. General Frank Blair, Jr., gathers all the strength 80 far as the labor or eight hour mover ment i concerned. That movement should not be Gespised or ignored by the Convention. If it is it will endanger the success of the democratic ticket io more than one State. Blair will have Missowri and Maryland to start with and more in prospect. Kentucky pronounces for Pendleton; #0 does lowa, With a squint towards Hendricks, Several wicked democrats, wnused to such a thing, actually went to church yesterday. ‘The Connecticut delegation is mostly quartered at the Worth House, with Eaton as the grand high cockalorum, Eaton thinks the change im the Ohio delegation means work. That's what le himself likes, ‘With his coat off. English, of Connecticut, is modestiy talked of in some quarters as the third or fourth choice. ‘The question i# gradually assuming this shape:— Not so much whether Chase, Pendieton Hendricks or anybody else shall be the candidate; but whether greenbacks, the bondholders or the ploughholders shall rule the day. The penhoiders are not taken inte account. It i# thought the ballotings will occupy two or three days; therefore a good many delegates will probably not be #o flush as they have been for several daye paet, Hote! living in New York is rather costive. Kmportant Letter From Chief Justice Chase— Hie Views on the Suffrage Question. The following letter from a distinguished states- man of Ohio, addressed to a gentieman in this city, ‘was rent to Chief Justice Chase last week There is a growing disposition among the dem cracy of the West to accept Chief Justice Chase aa theif candidate. If cordially received by the party his election will be certain, and it t# the safest and best we can do. | see the Commercial doubts his consenting to leave the question of suffrage, without distinction of race, to the States and considers {t a departure from his long avowed principles, do not perceive. Chase is in favor of two things— the constitution of tie United States and the rights of the States under it and suffrage without distinction of race; and I think he has never sald he would vio late the first in order to secure the last, and it ts not Ab inconsistency or & departure from principle to refuse the attainment of an end, however desirabie, by an assumption of ungranted powers.

We desire cordial relations and ternal constitutional union between the North and the South, and as one of the best means of accomplishing this object we propose ap immediate and unive! ‘amnesty. 2. That the questions of slavery and secession hav- ing for all time to come by the war and by the voluntary action of the Southern States in Constitutional Convention assembled, these issues are never to be renewed or reagitated. 8.

No State can withdraw from the Union nor can it be dissolved by Congress, No State ever was out of the Union, and the Southern States, of their people, a8 ‘was the fight having 0 their State governments in 1864 and 1865, those constitutions truly represent the mu of the people and must be restored and acknowl- edged. 4. That the people must be relieved from oppres- sive taxation by a great diminution of expenditures, by reducing the army and navy to a peace establish- ment and by remodeiiing the tariff so as, while af- Sording ample incidental aid to all industrial pur- suits and restoring them to prosperity as before the war, it would, by yielding much more revenue, enable us to disband the large army of taxgath- erers and repeal the whole system of internal taxa- tion, except upon whiskey, tobacco and a just and reasonable income tax on the national banks and bonds, so that taxation may fall upon wealth and capital and not upon labor. That while we desire as soon as practicable a currency fully equivalent everywhere to specie, in which labor should be paid, we object to the present monopoly in favor of the national banks as most unequal, oppressive and unjust, and insist that the same privileges which they enjoy should be opened to all who will comply with the provisions of the law. 5, That the public faith must be preserved by the payment of the national bonds; in exact accordance with the Jaw; and, in case of any controversy as to the law, which Congress may not have settled, the courts are open for its interpretation, including the supreme judicial tribunal. 6. That the democratic party now, as under the auspices of Mr. Jefferson in 1800, 1s 0} to alien and sedition laws, and in-favor of the liberty of speech and of the press; that they ardently desire, and would aid by homestead and pre-emption law: and all proper and constitutional means, a large an bom immigration here of Germans, Irish and all other European races, and would defend, at home and abroad, even by war if necessal rights, without distinction, of atl Amer! native or adopted. 7. That every addition made to the territory of the Union has been effected by the democratic early, under the democratic administrations of Jefferson, Monroe, Polk and Pierce, quadrupling power, wealth and area, carrying our flag ane boundaries to the Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico.

That the lation of the right of suffrage under the federal constitution belongs exclusively to the States of this Union, each of them providing for itself such rules as it may prefer, as they have always heretofore done; and any discrimination on this su) ject by Congress taking this vital power from some ‘tates and leaving it with others is a most dangerous infraction of the constitution and subversive of the reserved rights and equality of the States and of the liberties of the people; that Northern States which Teject ne suffrage at home whiie foi through their members of Cor States, violate every principle of justice and of the constitution and establish a fat recedent; that if ngress can sav Who shall and who shall not vote in any one State they can in all, and thus, by con- pate —— extinguish the States or force them all into provincial dependence. 9, That the effort of Congress to govern the Sonth by the bayqnet, by universal negro suffrage, accom- panied by the disfranchisement of hundreds of ——— of the Paeen — — as Remo —~ millions of negroes 5 ‘and control ei millions of our white brethren of the South, 4 a policy wholly unwarranted by the constitution and would destroy all hope of a cordial reunion of all the States. 10, That the recent conflict of arms, after a fearful and gallant st on both sides, having been de- cl in favor of the North, we should now pursue a magnanimous policy towards the People of the South, so as to re-establish cordial and fraternal relations, enable the South, whose homes have been laid waste and desolate, in time to restore their fortunes, and, above all, by a just and = course, to induce them, in war and in peace, in all time to come, to rall: round the old flag, with the same devotion whic their fathers did under those great Southern and na- tional leaders— Washington and Jackson, Scott and lor.

An elective despotism was nos the government we fought for, but one in which the powers of the government should be so divid and bal- anced among several bodies of magistracy that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” T views of Mr. Jefferson were thoroughly endorsed by Washington in his Farewell Address, in which he says:—"The neces. sity of reciprocal cheks in the exercise of political power by dividing and distributéng it into disferent departments and constituting each the guardian of the public weal from invasion by the otner has been evinced by necessity, ancient and modern) and he adda, ‘The constitution which at any time exets, till changed by an explicitand authentic act of the people, ly obligatory on all.

Instead of restoring the Union it has, ao fi as in ite powes, dissolved it, and sub- jected ten States, in time of ‘profound peace, to military despotiam and wuegro supremacy.

The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes under date July 3, a8 follows:— Some prominent citizens of New York recently ad- dressed a letter to President Johnson, asking if he would consent to become a candidate for the Presi- dency betore the New York Convention. The Prest- dent replied in a long letter yesterday, reviewing some of the acts of his administration, and indicat- ing very clearly his views and the intentions which have actuated his movements, in the past. He al- ludes to the divisions which have oocurred between Congress and the Executive, and the embarrass- ments of his position. He will impose no barrier to the desire of the people, whose servant he is, and he trusts that the Democratic Convention, in the forma- tion of ‘aoe and the choice of a candidate, will be actuated more for the common good of the people and the country than the supremacy of the party.
