With the mercury at ninety, the national democracy on Saturday last commenced in the new Tammany Hall their labors of Her- cules, In the proceedings of the day, limited to the preliminary organization of the Con- vention, there was nothing very startling or extraordinary, with the exception of the com- mittee appoint “on resolutions and plat- form.” This committee of thirty-six members, one from each State of the Union, embraces such men as Charles C. Langdon, of Alabama; James B.‘ Eustis, of Louisiana; M. E. Barks- dale, of Mississippi; Robert Strange, of North Carolina; General Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, and Thomas. S. Bocock, of Virginia, late Speaker of the House of Representatives of the rebel Congress. Shining lights of the Southern Confederate church and the Northern copperhead school, with perhaps an exception or two, make up' the committee. We are pre- pared, therefore, for a democratic platform of the most decided complexion in opposition to negro suffrage and negro equality, and tor such declarations on the national bonds and the national debt as will make the bondhold- ing aristocracy of the New York democracy shake in their shoes, From the early announcement of this com- mittee we infer that the party platform is to be reported and adopted in advance of the ticket.

Chief Justice Chase on Suffrage. Another letter from Chief Justice Chase will be found in our columns this morning. He puts his foot dewn very decisively and firmly in favor of what he calls his old State rights doctrine—the practical disposition of the suffrage question by the people of the States themselves. He reiterates his desire to see all disfranchisements and disabilities removed, and closes his letter with the following terse sentence, which should be as good as a whole sermon in show- ing old fogy and old copperhead democrats the error of their ways:—‘‘It is an intense desire with me to see the democratic party meeting the questions of the day in the spirit of the day, and assuring to itself a long duration of ascendancy. It can do so if it will.” This letter of the Chief Justice is called forth by an epistle from an eminent Ohio statesman, who calls his attention to a West- -ern newspaper article arguing that such a view of the suffrage question on the part of Chief Justice Chase would be @ departure from his long avowed principles. The Ohio gentleman says in his {etter that there is a growing disposition among the democrats West to accept the Chief Justice as their candidate, as his election will be certain if he is cordially received by the party. PROBABLE PLATFORM OF THE Demooraoy. — matio news; political news, news of the courts, commercial and financial news, news, news of the markets, police city news, brief extracts from other newspapers offering the condensed spirit of the American and Euro- pean press, advertisements which are of indis- pensable utility to the public, and which alon® would enable the future historian, centuries hence, to reconstruct the New York of to-day, together with editorial comments on the news and the various questions that actually {nterest the public mind, In addition to all this we published a corres- pondence which of itself illustrates the pro- digious scope and variety of the modern journal. This correspondence included tele- graphic despatches from London and Havana, from Washington, Boston, Poughkeepsie, Buf- falo and other points in this country, some of them from so great a distance as Omaha and Fort Bridger, via St. Louis, It included also the lengthy and detailed accounts by our special reporters of the celebration of the ninety-second anniversary of our national inde- pendence, of the dedication of the new Tam- many Hall, the first day's proceedings of the Democratic National Convention in Tammany Hall, the Soldiers and Sailors’ Convention at Cooper Institute, the Schiitzenfest at Jones’ Wood, the racing at Paterson, tho trotting at the Union Course, the excursion of the Brook- lyn Yacht Club, the “national game” as played by several base ball clubs, together with numerous notes, letters and communications. Among the latter we may specify elaborate disquisitions on the finances of Europe, apropos of the tax on government We publish in another column this morning @ covers a deep intrigue of the Pendletom men to rule out Chase and head off Seymour, and it ha's @ good show of success. On the other hand, it will be remarked that in the adoption of tie temporary rules of the Convention the platform of principles presented by Mr. Henry C. Murphy to the Committee on Resolutions of the Democratic National Convention. In substance the platform demands the restora- tion of all the States and of civil govern- bonds, and on China arm the Chinese, setting forth the philosophy and organization of the view. Unification of the coinage of the world, or even of the coinage of the chief commercial nations, would be very good, and would facili- tate exohange if thie and all other countries were on s specie basis and the exchanges could be kept evenly balanced ; but it would do us 20 good while we have a paper or mixed our- reney and gold at a high premium; and it is doubtful if it would not prove injurious to us | after resuming specie payments, as long as the balance of trade and exchange remains against us and in favor of Europe. There is generally too great « drain of specie fromt this country to | Europe, and this is more likely to be aug- mented than diminished through increasing importations and the payment of interest on the debt held abroad, Unification would rather facilitate the flow of specie from the | United States and tend to keep us poor in the | precious metals, Besides, if there is to bea unification, we maintain that the decimal system and coinage of the United States are the best in the world, that this country is soon to be the financial centre of the world, and that if any change be made the nations of Europe and CITY INTELLIGENCE.
