He asked why Was that? (Cries of “Tnat’s true,”) General Nagle, after the commotion had somewhat subsided, satd he would not be present If he was not Setisied that: Mr. Train was @ candidate. (Chee! and a voice “Go into him, Nagie.”) He would anawer Mr. Waters by saying he was entirely in favor of Sey- mour and Biair—(cries of three cheers for them)which were given with a will.) General Nagle then con- tnued to speak of his early acquaintance with Mr. Seymoar, This somewhat molified Mr. Waters and When the General conciuded Mr. Waters declared he Would support Mr, frain if he was nominated. A motion was here made to appoint a committee to pass resoluwons expressive of the sense of the meeting, which brought Mr. Brady to his heel again and he remarked, “If Mr. Train 1s nominated tn this here district [ will support him—that ts, if he gets the regular nomination.

There were present gentlemen from all the Northern States, most of whom have participated actively in the campaign and accumalated data upon which to base opitiions for which they claim the merit of tolerable'accuracy. From this interchange of eenti- ment there i¢ a noticeable contrast with that Promulgated through the partissn papers and the speeches of the partisan orators.

They apprehend the possibility of overthrow from the combustible material of which the party is composed in the South, and they realize the & ponsequences of arousing the preveatoes of the Northern people by the sudden an timed eleva- tion of their colored political allies. From the half dozen democrats who were here but little could be gathered as to their estimate of the bay oe of Seymour and Biair. They go to the ex- nt of predicting that should they carry Ohl» and Pennsylvania in October they could safely count on Wisconsin, Iinois and enough other states to elect their candidates in November. The Indiana men are contident of their ability to elect Hendricks Governor, put they are not so posi- tive of carrying the Legislature. “All the hopes of the democrats are placed upon the intermediate elections, and should tuese result adversely the con- test will in their opinion be decided. The radicais appear to realize very sensibly that | the democrats are at work with spirit, and that they | give strong indications of thetr confidence in the | result. ‘tus circuinstance, coupied with tue consci- | ousness that they have committed many errors that they are now encountering in the form of hage obatructions that seem to act as stumoling-blocks im | the way of the honest masses, gives them great canse for anxiety and distrust, and has sent them from the capital impressed with the idea that they have no alternative but to use every avaliable advantage, to labor with mereased ardor, and to expend ail the | energy and money atthelr command. And this will be thé result of the coniidentiat conferences held here by the leading repubiican politicians. More money will be expentled, more speeches will be made, and @ thorongh augmeniation of force inaugurated, The other party may expect it and prepare for it. Mr. Uidridge, the sanguine and solicary democratic member of the House from Wisconsin, brought a. good account from his State, both as to the Congres- sional nominations and the spirit in which the democrats are carrying on the canvass. In the Mil- waukee-district they have for once tu a long time made a judicious nomination, Alexander Mitchell, the choice of the democrats against General Halbert E. Paine, the present radical representative from that district, is the president of the First National Bank of Milwaukee, is immensely wealthy, and for his financla! success is "ded as the Jay Cooke of the Northwest. ie oldest citizens of the having commenced business in Milwaukee asa private banker when that prosperous and ions city was’ only a Western Village.

It cannot be coi that latterly a conservative; never @ democrat in the | strict sense of the term. His opponeat won most of his reputation—which is exclusively ynilitary—in the war, in which he had the misfortune to lose a leg. His fame a8 @ statesman, which is not remarkable for brilliancy, is available to all who choose to investigate the Congressional record of the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth Congresses. In his previous contests he has not encountered a can- didate of the formidable proportions of Mr. Mitchell, in whose nomination the democrats have attested their sagacity and given strength enough to their ticket to carry the district for their local nominee and for Seymour and Blair as well. Jn the northern part of the State, in the district ad- joining that of Mr, Eldridge, the democrats have nominated Joseph Vilas, @ successful merchant and manufacturer and @ very popular man, of the war- democratic persuasion. Mr. Vilas was born near Og- . Y.,and is a gentleman of education and intelligence. His competitor, Mr. Sawyer, is now serving his third term in the House; is a plain, unassuming ian, and owes lils political elevation to his success in the lumber trade. By choosing avail- able men the democrats have strengthened them- | selves in Wisconsin, and inspired Mr. Eldridge with | the hope that he will have congeptal aid in repre- | sentlug the Badger State in the next Congress. Surv the political Geld by the light given us by our frets, ‘the Congressmen, we can only ‘nfer that it is a mere toss Mig for the game, and that soth parties are suffering all the tortures of suspense tm- | posed by the uncertainty of precarious fortune. | LOUISIANA. | Important Contemplated Action of the Stace | Democratic Committee—Ceontinued Excite. | ment and Alarm in New Orleans—The In- cendiary’s Torch Applied tn the Suburbse— Sensible Speech of the Negro Licutenaat Governor. , New ORLEANS, Sept. 26, 1668.

To Tue Epirox or Tas HERALD:— ‘The Americans are justly supposed to be the most practical people of the earth; the object alone inte- rests them, not the means of attaining it. It is an- perior appreciation of practical means and the Little attention paid to theoretical obstacles that have made America, {n less than a century, one of the most ad- mirabie, rich and progressive countrica. But this Tare quality that constitutes its force and which in- sures success When applied af home becomes fre- quently an obstacle and even a danger when brought to bear on international rights and duties, We should have preferred consigning the question raised by Mr. Kelley in Congress concerning the free pas- sage of the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus to oblivion were it not that the Springfleld Paty Ke- pubdlican once more refers to that matter, seemingly reproaching us for understanding it better than itself and knowing how to appreciate it in its true light. ‘We do not profess to defend the Turks, but simpiy Justice ana equity—the principles of liberty as well for ourselves as for others—that is, when they are compatible with the good right; and if Mr. Keliey had carefully sifted the object of his motion before submitting it to Congress, and with as little good sense. as that Representative possesses we sincerely hope that he is not want ing in that respect), we feel assured that he would have abstained from the act. But in that Mr. Kelley, who had probably private reasons for making such @ proposition ex abrupto, is not More guilty than many of our fellow citizens who complaisantly echo the doctrine; and we can affirm that at the present moment there is not @ political men hor an American writer who has given bimsetf the trouble to enlighten himself on the elements of as tt is to proclaim the independence of Orete, when we are sware that tt ts already by the Sultan's troops; but to what end will these pts tend ff tt ts not toeprove that we are & people, without ang ides of the laws that: rule international relations, and We demand, iit fact? The papers that took wp ervation more | | ality of the rights of consular jurisdiction, tensiuns admissible by Turkey and Western Tope, in the name of our commercial interests, and, above all, in the name of the friendly ties that unite us to Russia, Buteven then itis well to remind those who | ignore the fact, without except the Springfeld Daily Republican or Mr. Kelley, that it is precisely the non-participation of the United States in the stipulations that rule the passage of the Straits u render any exclusive pretensions out of place, reality what is our positton in Tur- key In refereng§ to the international principles and the privileges conferred by the capitulations con- firmed by these same treaties that we have not signed, and the solidity of which we 80 hanghtil decline? In ‘Turkey we occupy the same politt position as Beigiuin, Holland, Denmark, Greece and all the second class Powers that enjoy by tolerance the immunities formerly granted to some of the ped States of Europe by the conquering Sultans. hhese exorbitant immunities, without parallel even in such barbarous countries as “Japan Abyssinia, constitute such advantages that we, 43 Atericuus, would never tolerate to strangers iif our country, not even if we were forced to it by a disastrous war. For instance, they include the right of consular Jurisdiction for our own subjects, exemption from taxes and li- censes, the uniformity of duties on our merchan- dise that only pays six per cent on entry, and nu- merous other privileves that secure to American citizens resident tn Turkey @ material and political existence, an ‘ndependence and liberty of action totally unknown to us at home, although we con- sider this the most liberal of all nations, t is quite evident that when Turkey made those enormous concessions to England and France and afterwards to Austria and Russia she was more or less forced, because it was precisely at the period of her most brilliant conquests that she so awk- wardly disposed of her prerogatives in favor of strangers, without even confronting the dire conse- quences that might eventually befall her tndepend- ence through such an act of condescendence, or rather of weakness, But Turkey then placed such restrictions on her favors that no person dreamed of challenging, for the simple reason that she gave more than she demanded, and at that period it was policy tO arrange with a Power that was about to in- vade ail Europe. Those restrictions consisted merely in the closing of the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus to all foreign vessels of war and the right of levying toll, or firman, on merchant vessels. Furthermore, no Euro} were allowed to possess or acquire territorial property on Turkish soll; but this latter reatriction, a8 we are aware, has lately been re- moved. These reciprocal conceasions, which to all appearance favored the Western Powers, and with good reason, once admitted and adopted by the so- called instrument of capitulations, were ards embodied in all political treaties entered upon by the contracting parties, Itistrue that the govern- ment of the United States has no treaty with the Ottoman empire; it has only a commercial treaty, revised in 1862, by the tenor of which it is placed on the same footing and inthe same conditions as the European Powers. The benefits of these capitula- tions and the incalculable advantages they bestowed were nevertheless accorded by the Turks, actuated by a spirit of tolerance and a just feel- ing of condescendence, to a country which they, and with good reason, had always considered as friendly. Whatever may be the resources and quickness of imagination of Mr. Kelley and of our fellow citizens in general, and however strong may be our desire to remove all restrictions from our commerce and facilitate our friendly relations with Russia, to whom doubtless we wish to lend a hand if neceasary, even to the middie of the Black Sea, can we in conscience and without giviag umbrage to all civilized nations suddenly raise the exorbitant pretension to be benevolently treated by the Turks on the same footing as the Powers who entered upon the Crimean war to save their empire, and not sub- mit ourselves to the same obilgations accepted and admitted by those Powers’ It would be madness; and we cannot believe that any intelligeut person in the United States would continue to sustain such an argument. Naturally the government of the United ts at liberty spontaneously renounce the ive privileges and immunities enjoyed by its citizens In Turkey, by favor of the conventions that it has not signed, and that stipulate the exception- The gov- ernment of the United States is at liverty to abandon all invaluable benefits that accrue to our citizens, to eur commercé and to the development of our politi- cal infuence, to the liberal spirit in which the Turks are pleased to treat us, whereby we are placed on the same footing with their best friends and allies, It is at liberty to reject those advantages, and at the same time to decline the obligation of submutting to any restrictions that may ensue; but in that case the oan of the United States ought to take the initiative by formally declaring its non-particl tion, in any manner whatever, in the benefits of the capittilations, to consider Turkey in the same light as France or Switzerland—a country absolutely Independent; to treat with her on conditions of the strictest reciprocity in matters of ctvil and criminal jeune of,commerce, duties, navigation, consu- Jar immunities—in one word, in all mattera of pollti- caland international right; in fact, to remove, ac- cording to its convenience, af obstacles caused b: those same capitulations and which are in oppose tion to the free and intefnal administration of the country. Then, and only then, the government of the United States can demand of the Porte, in the hope of being listened to, the overthrow of the barriers that at this moment prevent Admira! Farragut and not get, his squadron from visit! the ruins of Sebastopol and eveu those of Sinope, without hindraace. THE NATIONAL GAME. : Cincinnati vs. Mutual. ‘The “red stockings” put in their second appear- ance in this vicinity yesterday afternoon at the Union grounds, having for their opponents the Mutaals, of this city. The day was somewhat better for a game than Thuraday was, and the players on both sides seemed to appreciate that fact and worked as if they Wanted to have as much play as possible. To speak of the game tersely and traly, it wasa first class muMn match on both sides. To attempt to enumer- ate the flies missed, wild throws, genuine “mufts’’ and poor judgment exhibited by the play- era on either side would be a heavy task. The gooa plays were #0 few and so far between that the recorders could scarcely make up their minds to note them before some outrageous speci- men of muMuism appeared to obliterate the knowl- edge of the slight, good movements. The Mutuals, as may be seen from the score, were at one time in advance of the visitors three to one, then again two to one, when by some One hitting, aided very much by some superior muffing, they Re te passed the Mutuals, winning the game by one run. The game was tedious, by no means scientific, and a most uncreditable display by both parties, although the Cincinnatis fougit well up hil, Hatteld and Waterman, the lat es} ly, were both so extremely anxious to show that they wanted to win — me that they ofien made some wonderful anders, Wright played nicely at second base, as he sige 4 does, and Hatfeld, notwithstanding his anxtety, did some very nice fly catching, The Mutuals bit Wright so heavily at the start that Brainerd was sent in to pitch, with what result may be seen be!ow, Milla played first base for the Mutuals, and did it, of course, very well, although the throwing to that base generally was magnificently poor. Swandell played behind in good style. Dockney did there was for him to do. Woiters pitched well, but toward the close of the game the “red stockings” got on a streak of batting, and the Matuals, not supporting in the field, allowed the figures to go on until the game ended with the following score:— MUTUAL.
