THE NATIONAL DEMOCRACY.
About tho only thing of real importance
done up to last night by the Democracy sit
ting in convention in New York, is the adop
tion of the two-thirds rule. There has been
considerable mutual admiration whioh
is of no account; there has been a com
plimentary resolution to Chief Justice Chase
■which would not have been passed had the
Chief Justice preserved himself free from the
taint of having allowed himself to be used
for the purpose of shielding a traitor, and
there was an endorsement of the Amnesty
Proclamation, which would have been en
dorsed with ten-fold enthusiasm had Mr.
, Johnßon gone farther and bad not only par
, doned traitors but declared that they never
had committed any crimes against God and
their country.
But the re-enactment of the two-thirds
rule is important. This rule was adopted in
1832, but as there was but little or no oppo
sition to the leading candidates who became
the Democratic nominees,the rule then attract
ed little attention. Jackson, Vanßuren and
Richard M. Johnson having been nominated
under the rule just as they would have bee n
nominated had no such rule existed. In 1811’
the Texas question having come upon the
carpet and raised new issues, the case became
.' different In that year Mr. Van Buren had
with him a large majority of the convention;
but the friends of Annexation and Nullifica
tion defeated his nomination under thd two
thirds rule and James K. Polk, George M.
Dallas,the Mexican war and the tariff of ’46
, were the consequence.
j| In the Convention of 1848 General Cass
t \received the nomination under the operation
U o f the two-thirds rule, and the result was the
■election of General Tayldr, the Whig candi
■date. ~ln 1852 the two-thirds rule defeated
■the aspirations of Buchanan, Mardy and
■ Cass, and the nomination of “Poor,fierce,"
■an unknown man, was forced through as a
compromise. Everybody knows what a
pitiable failure his administration was. In
1856 Mr. Buchanan had a majority in the
convention, and the friends of Pierce threw
into the scale sufficient votes to give him the
necessary two-thirds. In 1860 the nomina
tion of Douglaß by a united convention was
< defeated under the two-thirds rule, and
i through its working the Southern faction
■Psucceeded in their scheme of splitting the
f Democratic party, forcing the election of
Mr. Lincoln, and thus “firing the Southern
art" for rebellion.
The nomination of McClellan in 1864 was not
affected by the operation of the rule. The re
sult would have been the same had the rule no l
existed. The rule has worked disastrously for
l the interests of the party in every instance
I,,..'where it has been practically operative. U
has always been a favorite weapoa in the
V hands of the Southern managers for the ac
| complishing of their purpose s, and through
bv it they brought about the Annexation of
! Texas, the acquistion of new slave territory,
the Mexican war, the splitting up of the
l||kjJ)emocratic party in iB6O, and the War of
Xho Rebellion. Its re-enactment yesterday,
that the majority of the present
Convention still cling to their old idols, and
that they are willing to continue to submit
to the thraldom that brought misery upon
the country and disaster to the party,
It is’useless to speculate at this time upon
the effect of the passage of the rule by the
Convention, yesterday, when the wires may
V set all our surmises at nought before this
article meets the public eye. We can only
wait for more light than has been vouchsafed
us by the assembled Democracy up to the
time of the present writing.
DEIUOCKATIC BATTLE (LAOS.
The Associated Press reporter waxes even
•warmer than the weather warrants over the
■“SoldierB 1 Convention” in New York. He
grows ecstatic over the scenes at the Cooper
Institute, where certain ex-soldiers have as
sembled to make their formal surrender to
their enemies. Among the many touching
. sights at this New Y T ork Appomattox Court
House, we are told that battle-flags from
, almost every field of the war were displayed.
Supposing this flight of Democratic imagina
tion ■to be true, what “ a singular
incongruity is presented by the spec
tacle. America battle-flags waving over such
a crowd, gathered for such a purpose, remind
one' of nothing but the sacred vessels
ofjjernsalem defiled by the wild debauch Of
yjßelshazzsj’s feast. Those battle-flags, al
■ wayß supposing that they were Union, and
■not rebel battle-flags, were never before so
■Strangely misplaced. There are but three
reflags that belong to this “Soldiers’ Conven-
Von.” The “Stars and Bars” might well
«|Wave over it, for it has formally declared that
Kt sympathizes with none but those who
B| r ympathized with the “Lost Cause.” The
■black flag of Beauregard and Forrest
■would BOt be out of place, where the hero of
■Fort Pillow iB welcomed with open arms.
■And the white flag of unconditional surren-
Her would be most befitting an assemblage of
Hnaien who. still calling themselves soldiers,
■have, in good set terms, set their feet upon
r the good old. flag of the Union, and humbly
f begged that the vanquished rebels, North and
l'. South, will patron;. and their
I masters.
This Democratic “Soldiers’ Conven
tion" has betrayed its true character,
and proved itself a frightful sham.
’-.Among its prominent members are
A few men who were good soldiers under
Spter.r
: 'T *
ihe McClellan dynasty.; Alas I. that their
good record in the earlydays of the Rebellion
must bo re-read In the light of-the proceed
ings with Which they have now connected
themselves! Beside them, there is a motley
group of unknown names, of some of whom
may have seen sendee and many of whom
the service saw little and had better have seen
less. A riotouß, disorderly crowd, collected
by the crafty New York managers to supply
a military enthusiasm to the party which, so
constantly cries down all things military.
This Convention, in its material and in its
measures has missed its mark, and yesterday,
when it made its formal submission to the
Convention whose tool it is, it proposed to
surrender upon terms so grossly abject that it
has turned itself mto a most formidable
weapon in the bands of the loyal Republican
parly.
The speech which General Thomas Ewing,
Jr., made yesterday in behalf of these “sol
diers and sailors” is one of the best Republi
can campaign documents that can well be
published. It has the advantage of an official
character. General Ewing speaks for
his Convention, and the pitiful sur
render which he makes of his
own manhood mnst be taken as including
all those whom he represents. If he has/
overstepped the bounds of good policy in his
declarations of love for the rebellion and
hatred for the Union cause, it is the fault or the
Convention in not selecting a more plausible
mouth-piece. In almost all capitulations the
vanquished are permitted to retain their side
arms and preserve some of ,the emblems of an
honorable self-respect; bat this doughty
general claims no such privilege. All he
asks is forgiveness for ever having fought
against such magnanimous, such honorable,
such worthy Christian gentlemen and pa
triots, and permission to serve them faithfully
„ hereafter, all the dayß Of his life.
There is not a particle of exaggeration in
this definition of General Ewing’s speech.
He confesses that/the soldiers of the country
and , the Democracy have been traveling
“widely-separated paths in the past.”. He
declares an earnest desire to associate only
with those against whom he fought
during the war, and who “felt
coldly in the North toward the
Union cause while the war went on." He
descants with unfeigned delight upon the
privilege of “friendly intercourse with
many of the most prominent generals of
the Confederate army.” He finds himself
in perfect unity with them, and is thankful to
know that “their views as to the present and
future policy of the Government coincide.”
He recognizes no political enemies but the
Republican party, and no political friends
but those that are sworn to overthrow its
work.
The Republican party gladly takes up this
issue. It gladly parts company with men
who, calling themselves soldiers, thus de
nounce the only party that preserved the
Union and sustained the army during the
rebellion. It willingly goes before
the country upon the question which this
Convention raises. While this “Soldiers’
Convention” declares itself the humble ser
vant of Wade Hampton and Forrest, of Buck
ner and Hill, and of all and everybody who
ever £Wore hostility to the Union and fought
for its overthrow, the great loyal heart of the
country swells up indignantly against the
dastardly confession, and rallies again around
the standard of the Union. That standard is
still upborne by Grant and Sheridan and
Meade and Howard and Thomas, and all
the noble host of officers and men who
honestly believed during the war, and be
lieve it now, that the party North and South,
■which sustained what Andrew Johnson used
to call “the infernal rebellion,” had and has
nothing in common with the truly honorable
and loyal soldier. The Republican party
wants nothing better than the action of this
Convention for the great issue of the cam
paign. General Ewing told nothing but the
truth when he said ycßterday that his views
and those of Wafie Hampton coincide.
Hampton has been at no pains to conceal his
views. He has steadfastly held to
the doctrine that the rebel cause
was ultimately to triumph, and the
Convention for which General Ewing
speke yesterday avows its desire to aid that
triumph. Every rebel battle-flag would wave
in celebration of such a victory as the Demo
cratic Conventions in New York are laboring
to organize. But the people who are to do
the voting are true to the principles which
sustained the country and the army through
the war, and they will carry the Presidential
election as an overwhelming testimonial to
that true soldier of the Republic, Ulysseß 8.
Grant, and the brave men who, like him,
will never surrender into the hands of their
known and confessed enemies the hard-won
fruits of Union victory.
JOHN*)ON VERSUS JOHNSON.
Andrew Johnson, President, in his zeal to
restore rebels to power, is singularly obliv
ious to the testimony and arguments of An
drew Johnson, Senator, as to the true policy
to be pursued in the treatment of traitors.
In hiß famous speech on the expulsion of Jesse
D. Blight, he quoted at length from the re
port of John Quincy Adams, in the case of
Senator Smith, expelled for complicity with
the treason of Aaron Burr. The earnest
truth of Mr. Adams' argument suited Mr.
Johnson well when he was building up that
reputation for extraordinary patriotism which
has since been so completely forfeited. In
that report Mr. Adams used this language,
which returns to plague Andrew Johnson
for his total repudiation of its sen
timents in his amnesty proclamation:
“Ib it conceivable that a traitor to that country
■which has loaded him with favors, guilty to the
co bid on understanding of all mankind, should
be Buffered to return unquestioned to that post
of honor and confidence where, in the zenith of
his good fame, he had been placed by the esteem
of bis countrymen, and in defiance of, their
wishes, in mockery of their fears, surrounded by
tbe public indignation, but inaccessible to its
I bolt, pursue the purposes of treason In the heart
|of the National connclls? Mast the assembled
I rulers of the land listen with calmness and indif-
I ferenee, session after session, to the voice of no
tations infamy, until the sluggard stop of muni
cipal justice can overtake his enormities ? Must
'’ they tamely see the lives and fortunes of mil
i lions, tbe safety of present and future ages, de
pending upon his vote, .recorded with theirs,
merely because tbo abußed benignity of general
maxims may have remitted to him tho forfeiture
| of his life?”
[ A few years ago, Andrew Johnson re
garded these searching questions as unanswer-
THBDmT EVENING BUttEW-^-FHI
able, and he judged lightly nof them. No w'■
be practically gives them the: lie, and bonds
everypowerwhichthe ExecutivecarL.ustJrp,
to the work of forcing 'such men as John"
Quincy Adams describes into, the seats/bf
honor and power in the Federal Government.
There have been few men, if any, who have,
written and spoken their own' condemnation
so tolly and strongly as Andrew Jonnson did
when he caused his speeches as Senator, Vice
President and President to be/collected and
printed. They stand to-day/opposing their
crushing testimony to his present record, car
rying the conviction of W perfidy on every
line. /
Mr. N. G. Taylor/Commissibner of Indian
Affairs,has addressed a letter to Senator Hen
derson complaining, in what we think an im
pertinent manner, of the action of the House
of Representatives in the case of the attempted
purchase ofthe lands of the Osage Indians by
a railroatPcompany. The House very pro
perly passed a resolution condemning the
scheme aB an outrageous swindle,designed for
the able benefit of a private corporation and a
few individuals, intimating at the same time
that the Indians had been bullied into signing
/the treaty. Mr. Commissioner Taylor, who
is one of the interested parties, grows vir
tuously indignant at these accusations; and
makes the following assertions: That threats
were not used against the Indians; that they
were eager to give their consent; that the
State of Kansas will be benefltted by the
transferor the lands; that the settlers are
satisfied with the arrangement, and that the
public interests of the United States will be
advanced by the ratification of the treaty.
To .all these allegations we take decided
exception. We positively deny the truth of
all but one, and that is at least doubtful.
The toll report ofthe interview ofthe Indians
with these Commissioners was published in
several of the Kansas papers, and the
speeches of the chiefs thUB given demonstrate
very clearly that so far from their expressing
any anxiety to effect the sale, they hesitated
for a long time about it, and the majority of
them yielded at last very reluctantly. These
reports had every appearance of truth, and
we, in common with the whole Kansas press,
believe them. Whether threats were
or were not used, may perhaps remain
an open question, bnt it was generally so
asserted throughout the Slate, and it is diffi
cult to perceive, if such was not the cash,
why the Indians should consent to sell their
property for about one-fifth the price offered
by other and less powerful parties. That the
people of Kansas are opposed to the transac
tion is evident from the earnest opposition of
the newspapers, from the action of their rep
resentatives in Congress, and from the fact,
also, that so far from the State deriving any
benefit from it, it actually loses in two direc
tions; by receiving nothing, contrary to cus
tom, for its school fund, and by having one
sixth of its whole territory held by specu
lators, who will -ask such exorbitant prices,
that rapid settlement will be prevented. No
sane man can be made to believe that the
people are anxious to give 800,000- acres of
splendid land to the corporators of a
miserable railroad, which has already been
richly endowed by the State, and which
will not, touch the land at any point if it is
ever built, which does not seem by any
means an assured fact. If we had no other
evidence that the settlers in the territory did
not favor the scheme, it would be amply suf
ficient to know that the railway company has
already fixed a price upon their established
homes, much greater than they would have
had to pay either the Indians or the govern
ment. But we have other evidence of their
disapprobation, by the violent denunciation
of the scheme in the papers which represent
these settlers, and give expression to their
sentiments. How the United States as a
whole will gain anything by an oppressive
and iniquitous fraud perpetrated upon a part
of it, would puzzle even ingenious Comrnis
-1 sioner Taylor to demonstrate.
The fact is Mr. Taylor’s letter is a bold
i but miserably insufficient defence of a wicked
1 transaction in which he is interested. That
! a Government officer, holding a responsible
: and important position should be found to be
I implicated in such a transaction is scan
; dalous. Mr. Taylor, so far from having
1 cleared himgelf and his scheme from suspi
cion, has more forcibly
; than ew the necessity for the immediate
1 transfer of Indian affairs to the War De
-1 partment, and this! we hope Congress will do
■ before it adjourns. 1 7
An intensely Democratic paper in Paris,
France, contains tire following paragraph in
a late number:
“ If the United States wants to pay off any old
grudges which it may have against the continen
tal despots, just let itß head, the President, make
a trip to Europe. Great Heavens, what shouts, what
applause, what demonstrations there would be!
and the beauty of it would be that the despots*
and their tools would have to treat the unwel
come visitor with as much politeness and kind
ness as if he were one of their own class,”
We sincerely hope President Johnson will
not act upon thiß advice. He would be a sorry
representative of the American people in any
position, but if he went to Europe, and
“swung round the circle ” of the kingdoms
as he did in our States, he would not only dis
gust and dishearten the masses from whom
he boasts to have sprang, but he would con
firm the “despots” and the aristocracy in
their opinion that the very best thing in the
world to do with a plebian, is to keep him in
his originally humble position.

Democratic convention.
New York, July 7.—The police arrangements
this morning on Fourteenth street are excellent.
All crowding at the doors of Tammany Hall Is
prevented by aline of police,who permit none bnt
holders of tickets to the Convention to approach
the trallding.
At 10 o’clock the delegates were generally on
hand, and the galleries were filled with specta
tors, as also were all the Beats appropriated to
the ladles. Prior to calling the Convention to
order the hall was filled with rumors. Some of
Penilleton’B friends say that combinations have
been mode which render his defeat certain.
The Committee on Resolutions has agreed
tmanimonaly on the platform, and are ready to
report promptly.
The Convention was called to order by its
President at 10.40. Prayer „was offered by the
3Rev. Mr. Plummer, who referred with' appropri
ate feeling to the audden death of Peter Cagger,
o delegate to the Convention from the State of
New York.
On motion of Mr. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, the
reading of yesterdoy’B journal was dispensed
with.
Mr. Wright, of Delaware, submitted a series ol
resolutions from Alexander H. Stephens,of Geor
gia, which he asked to have read and referred.
The name of Stephens was loudly cheered.
The resolutions were read by the Secretary.
TJie resolutions declare adherence to the Union;
that the Union under the Constitution Is a
union of States, and that the doctrines of Jef
ferson should be reaffirmed, and the ne
cessity of bringing the Government back
to their observance; that the Democratic
parly, in sustaining the Federal Government
during the late war did so in good iaith to sus
tain the Constitution, to preserve the rights and
dignities of ■ all the States unimpaired; that the
highest meed of patriotism is due to all who
perilled iife and fortune for the maintenance of
the Union, but we have no thanks for those who
carried on the war for the subjugation of the
States or to subject the white to the black race.
Mr. Richardson (111.) moved that all resolu
tions hereafter submitted be referred without
reading. If •, the Convention took any pther
course it would make some mistake, and commit
itself to something It would not maintain on the
stomp.
A delegate moved to amend so as to confine the
motion to all resolutions relating to the plat
form.
Mr. Cox said the Committee on Besolntions
was now ready to report, and he hoped that Mr.
Richardson would withdraw his motion.
A delegate from California sent up the resolu
tions of the labor convention of .California
against negro nominations; in favor of the
eight hour rule as Democratic doctrine.
Mr. Richardson Insisted on his motion to refer
all resolutions.
Mr. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, moved to lay on
the table, which was rejected.
The question was then taken on Mr. Riehard
son’s motion referring all resolutions without
reading. .
Mr. Price, of Missouri, here took the choir.
Before tho vote was token on Mr. Richardson’s
motion,
Mr. Murphy, of New York, rose to report from
the Committee on Resolutions tho Platform
agreed upon, and which ho sent to the Chair,
where they were read by Mr. Murphy. They de
clare that tho Democratic party, reposing trust
in the intelligence and justice of the people,
standing upon tha. Constitution, recognizing
slavery . and secession as settled by the
lots war or voluntary action of the South
ern States, never to be renewed, do demand
the Immediate restoration of all the States.
| Cheers. J Amnesty for aH political offenders

ment of the public debt, where the obligations do
not expressly'statc on their face, or thelaw under"
which issued does not provide for payment in
coin, should be paid in lawfal money of the

dency.
Whisky—Prices are nominal.
The Sew Yorlt money siaruet.
Jnr 6-—The week has opened on an easier money
market than we had in the beginning of the month, and
Se general rate for loans on call was four per cent. Cnm
erclal paper continues very scarce, and the beet grade is
in request at 5(36 per cent. The quarterly statements of
all the national banks having now been made np, cur
rency will return to this centre, whero tho supply promises
to be superabundant until October, when an advance in
the rate of interest to seven per cent will probably
take Diace; hot no stringency need be apprehended in
in view or all tho conditions afiect-ng the market, the
government having ceased to be a borrower, the contrac
tion of the currency having been stopped and the trade
being quiet and on a legitimate cash Laajs throughout tho
country, tinder these circumstances the supply of money
in all tho large cities is likely to be fully equafto the do
mabd. not only during theiemalnder of theycar, but so
long as contraction is suspended and the 'treasury is not a
borrower.
The stock market was on the whole steady throughout
the day but rather dull. The speculative feeling of the
street continues bullish and the tendency of prices is np
ward. The settlement of the difficulties formerly exist
ing between the Erie directors and the Vanderbilt party
bee not yet been responded to by the stock, but thero is
probably no significance in this circumstance. The crop
prospects continue unusually good in all sections of the
country, and tho current earniogß of all the railways ars
so large that the bears are discouraged from eelling their
stocks, while the bulls axe emboldened to extend their
operations.
'i he gold market has been stroDg to-day and moderately
active,;* liile the current of speculation was mainly for a
rise. The fluctuations were, however, limited to hi per
cent— mainly from 140)4 to 140)4. with the closing trane
actions at HO?;. The borrowing demand for coin was
well supplied, owing to the Treasury disbursements
and loans were made at 2@3 per cenr. for carrying. Tho
gross clearings amounted to $28,806 000, the gold bal
ances to 81.809,085. and ths currency balances to
31,833,553. The conversions of seven-thirty notes during
the day at the Hub-Treasury amounted to 8365 970. The
imports of specie at the port last week from foreign
poitß were valued at $197,188. making a total of $4,100,484
since the Ist of January. American silver iB quoted at
6>4@7M.per ant. below gold,and Mexican dollars are
duli at 1031{C310oM in gold. The firnmeßsof the rates of
foreign exchange at the present high point, the steady
outward drain of specie during the last three months and
the correspondingly large reduction of the amount of gold
in the country give an upward tendency to the premium
based on commercial grounds, and in the event ol tho
nominationof Mr. Pendleton, or any one committed to
his peculiar financial views, political influence would
operate in thesame direction.
fFrom to-day's New York World.]
July 6th.—’1 he money market is more active, and call
loans range from 4to 5 per cent Bißconnta of sixty days
paper are made at 6 percent, but longer dates are dlfli
cnlt to pass under 7 per cent
The Governmcntbond market was dull throughout the
day. hut tho investment demand of small purchasers is
steady, lbo foreign bonds are firmer than ithe domestic.
The gold market opened and closed at HO?;, at 3 P. M,
ranging from lt«J4 to lttiK- The rates paid for carrying
were 2,3, 3)4 per cent. After the boArd adjourned tho
quotations were 140)4 to 140Ji-

It denounces the usurpation and tyranny of the
Radical party in its violation of the pledge In the
conduet of the war, that it was only for the pre
servation of the Union; having subjugated the
States, overthrown the freedom of speech and of
the press, established a system of espionage, dis
regarded the habeas corpus, made of the national
capital a baatile, and threatened to destroy the
original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, and
maligned the Chief Justice because of his integ
rity fit the trial of the President.
The report , continues at considerable
length to recite these abuses, and In conclusion,
declares that tho privilege and trust of suffrage
belongs exclusively to the control of each State,
and that Congress has usurped it In violation of
the constitution.
It specifically denounces the Reconstruction acta
as tisurpatory, unconstitutional and void. The.
soldiers' and sailors’ pensions are to be faithfully
paid. The public lands Bhonld be reserved for
homesteads; and thanks Andrew Johnson lor re
sisting the aggressions of. Congress. In conclu
sion, the report invites men of all parties in,the
past to unite on this platform.
Mr. Morphy moved the previous question,
which was ordered with few dissenting votes.
A delegate called for the reading— |cries of
“Question, question!”]—which was put and
adopted with few dissenting voices, and the Con
vention rose to its feet, wildly cheering.
Mr. Bigler (Pa.) offered a resolution that the
Convention do now proceed to nominate a can
didate for President of the Unlted States. Some
confusion ensued here, but the Chair put the
question at once and it was decided in the affirma
uyp. '
Mr. Seymonr here resumed the Chair. Mr.
Vallandigham moved to reconsider the vote just
taken, and that the motion to reconsider lie on
the table. Agreed to.
Mr. Seymonr eald it was very important that
the Convention, before proceeding to ballot,
should clearly understand what the two-thirds
role was. Bto was very anxious that no misap
prehension should arise after a ballot shall have
been taken, and called npon the Secretary
to 'read a the decision of previous Demo
cratic conventions in regard to that role,
and eald if there ehonld be any doubt upon the
true operation and effect of eald rule, be invited
discussion and some form .of resolution by the
Convention which Bhonld determine whether
-two-thirds of the entire Convention, or. If the
vote ehonld not be fall, two-thirds of all those
voting, ehonld determine .the ballot.
Mr. Richardson moved that two-thirds of all
the delegates voting upon any ballot shall decide
a nomination, and added a few remarks de
nouncing the two-thirds' role as a mischievous
one.
Mr. Kiernan, New York, hoped and believed,
that no eerlons question wonld arize here, for the
sake of the country. We want not only to nom
inate, bht to win, und he hoped no man wonld
be nominated here who was not voted lor by two
tblrds of all the delegates. He hoped there
wonld be no change or the rule as heretofore ob
served, and that the Richardson resolution
wonld not be adopted. (Cheers.] He wanted a
nomination made only by the concurrent judg
ment of two-thirds oi all the delegates from all
the States. [Applause.]
Mr. Richardson rose to reply, but gave way to
Mr. Clymer, of Pennsylvania, who as Chair
man of the Committee on Permanent Organiza
tion, said the committee unanimously supposed,
in reporting the two-thirds role, that it required
two-thirds of all the delegates to effect a nomina
tion.
Mr. Hoyt, of Maryland, attempted to offer an
amendment to Mr, Richardson’s resolution, but
the latter withdrew his resolution, and the
amendment fell with it.
The chair announced that os the resolution
had been withdrawn, he would rule as was ruled
at the Baltimore and Charleston Conventions,
that two-thirds of the entire number of delegate!
shall be necessary to a nomination. The decision
os rendered at Baltimore was read by the Becre-
tary.
He then urged the audience to be quiet and
repress any manifestations to influence tne result
of tho deliberations of the Convention. Alter
some unimportant discussion of points of order,
Mr. Bigler moved that the Secretaries of the Con
vention act os tellers. Agreed to.
A Nevada delegate inquired whether after the
nominations are closed to-day, any new candi
dates can be brought forward.
The Chair replied that the Convention could at
any time bring forward new candidates. Subse
quently he said it was in order, nnder tho resolu
tion already adopted, for any State to. now bring
forward its candidates.
The Secretary, proceeded to call the roll in
order to give an opportunity lor States • to pre
sent their candidates.
Mr. Eaton, of Connecticut, referred- ti> the
gloom-wbich hung over the Democratic parly at
the close of the war, and reminded the conven
tion that Connecticut was the first State to pierce
the gloom by the election of a Democratic Gover
nor, James E. English, whom Connecticut now
preeents as her candidate.
Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, said he would vote
for Mr. Pendleton, bat would leave Ohio to make
the nomination. 7
Mr. Anderson, of Maine, eloquently eulogized
and presented tne name of General Winfield S.
Hancock. [Cheers.]
Mr. Emory, of Maine, on behalf of the minority
of the Maine delegation, and in behalf of the la
boring masses, nominated .Geoige H. Pendleton.
| Great cheering in. the gallery.]
New Jersey nominated Ex-Governor Joel
Parker, for whom she claimed a national reputa
tion, stating that while/ he earnestly supported
the national government throughout the war, he
never consented to any usurpation of the rights
of the citizens.
Mr. Tilden, of New York, by a unanimous
voto of the delegation, nominated Sanford E.
Church,whom he eulogized as a statesman ef en
larged experience, and a man who has always
achieved Bnccess before the people.
General McCook, of Ohio, by the unanimous
voice of her convention, placed in nomination
George H. Pendleton. [Cheers.]
Mr. Woodward, of Pennsylvania,by unanimous
vote of the delegation, nominated Hon. Asa
Packer. He declared that this nomination vtas
not intended as a mere compliment. The delega
tion presented him in earnest good faith, thongh
in great defferenee to the views of the Convention.
They intended to stand by him as long os should
seem necessary to give the Convention time
enough to rally to his support. The Speaker
proceeded at some length to present the candi
date’s public and private merits, and had not
concluded when the.five minutes allotted to each
epeitker expired. Time was called, but by unani
mous consent Mr. Woodward was permitted to
go on. Mr. Packer’s name was greeted with ap
plause, mingled' with a few cheers.
Mr. Nelson, of Tennessee, rose to present the
name of one whose claims and qualifications he
set forth in a few earnest and forcible remarks,
concluding by nominating Andrew Johnson.
[Great cheering both among the delegates odd
spectators, renewed and.long continued. ]
Mr. Smith, of Vermont, nominated the only
Democratic Governor of New England, James E.
English. '
A delegate from. Virginia endorsed as its first
and only choice tho nominee of this Convention,
[Cbeefs.] ■ '
Mr. Clark,of Wisconsin; in behalf of a majority

Washington, July 7.—At a quarter after 12
Mr. Stevens got the floor, and moved resolutions
that a committee be appointed to prepare addi
tional articles, substantially as follows:
Article let charges the President with official
usurpations and ■ removal of officers with a view
to his own advantage, to establish a party de
voted to his personal ends. Second, usurpations
and illegally establishing State governments in
the South, appointment of provisional gover
nors, &c., and with violation of the Reconstruc
tion acts, perjury, appointment of officers who
could not take the test oath, and corruption in
appointments. ,
Mr. Stevens said he did not caro to occupy the
time qf tho House with articles, nor with the evi
dence taken before the Judiciary Committee at
their former investigation.
He would ask to have them printed, and would
only read what he had to say in support of his
resolution.
Mr. Beck (Ky.) demanded that tho articles
should be read, which Mr. Stevens began to do in
a feeble voice.
He shortly gave way to Mr. McPherson, who
finished it for him.
Very little attention was paid to the reading by
the members on tho floor; and there was so
much noise and conversation that it was impos
sible in the gallery to hear much, either of the
articles or the speech. Mr. Stevens said ho did
not intend to ask action on the subject at this
time. /

XI.UI Congress—second Session.
Washington, July 7.
Senate.— Mr. Morgan (N. Y.) presented a pe
tition from citizens of New York protesting
against any cession of the Yo-Semite Valley to
private parties. Referred to the Committee on
Public Lands.
Mr. Wilson (Mass.) called up the joint resolu
tion in relation to the settlement of accounts of
certain officers and agents, who have disbursed
public money under direction of the Chief of
Engineers, which was passed.
The money In question was expended in the
erection of fortifications in Massachusetts, Maine
and New Hampshire.
Mr. Trumbull (HI.) called up the bill to revive
and continue in force the act of the 29th of July,
1850, and the acts amendatory thereof. He ex
plained that a year ago the Binaries of most of the
district judges were increased fro.m $2,000 to
$3,500, and at that time the law author
izing the payment of the expenses of
District Judges called out of their Districts by
Judges of the Supreme Court was repealed; that
some of the Justices of the Supremo Court
doubted whether their authority to call District
Judges out of their Districts was not also thereby
repealed by implication, and desired this declar
ation that that provision was now in force.
Mr. Williams (Oregon) contended that the ex
penses ought to be paid notwithstanding the in
crease of pay, citing the case of the District
Judge of Oregon, Judge Dedy, who was fre
quently called into California to hold a circuit
court, because of the large amount of business
there.
Messrs. Conncss, Cole and Corbett testified to
the same state of facts, and
Mr. Williams moved to amend, by providing
that the District Judge of Oregon receive his ex
penses for holding a Circuit Court in San Fran
cisco.
Mr. Trumbull reminded the Senate that the in
crease of salary had been made for the very pur
pose of compensation for expenses thus incurred.
He opposed the amendment
Mr. Conkling (N. Y.),as having been a member
of the Committee ot Conference on the bill
making the increase last year, corroborated tho
statement of Mr. Trumbull. He produced a let
ter from District Judge Hoffman, of California,
denying that the business of the District Court
there was overburthening him.
Mr. Conness (Cal.) said if the letter had been,
written to affect the pending bill for tho creation
of a second District Court In California, it was
very strange that it had not been sent to one of
the Benators frpm California. He reiterated .his
statement in regard to the business of the Cali
fornia District Coutt. .
Mr. Conkling, as a personal frlond of Judge
Hoffman, saidms character was too well known
to require any defence of his veracity here.
After a few further remarks from Mr. Conness,
the amendment was rejected, and the bill passed.
Whereupon, the morning hour having expired,
the consideration of the Tax bill was resumed.
House.—Mr. Delano (Ohio) introduced a bill
to provide for the payment of a certain demand
for stores and articles used by tho engineer de
partment in the army of the United States. Re
ferred to Committee on Claims.
Mr. Boutwell (Mass.) introduced a bill to fix
tho time for holding the terms of tho United
States District Court in Virginia. Referred to
the Judiciary Committee.
Mr. Van Horn (N. V.) asked leave to offer a re
solution making the Niagara ship canal bill a
special order for the 10th of December next.
Mr. Holman (Ind.) objected.
Mr. Julian (Ind.) offered a-pronmble and reso
lution reciting the fact of a so-called treaty be
tween the Potowattomie Indians and the Atchi
son, Topeka and BantaFe Railroad Company, by
which 342,000 acres of Indian lands, were trans
ferred at the rate of one dollar an acre, mon
strously disproportionate to their value, and in
structing the Committee on Indian Affairs to in
quire into the facts, with power to send for ' per
sons and papers. Adopted.
Mr. Btevens (Pa.)—l rise to a question of privi
lege. I desire to introduce a resolution, and to
follow it with some remarks, but will not ask
any further action.

[Bpeelal Despatch to tha Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.)
New Yobk, July 7.—Chase lias not yet been
nominated. The friends of Pendleton few that
this delay In nomination' bodes them no good
and begin to charge that there is a conspiracy
between the Chase men and the advocates of
Hancock, whose prospects are brightening every
minute. : The Chaisepeople are very reticent, and
thosd who we 'supposed and known to favbr
Hancock do not hesitate to express their opinion ;
that on the' 6th ballot his; strength will have
greatly increased. The Indiana delegation are
now holding a secret meeting, at which the name
of will be presented, strongly, backed by
speeches from former Pendlotoniana.
The Southern delegates will probably withdraw
their support from Pendleton, and oblte upon .
Packer, of Pennsylvania, or English, of Con- "
neeticut. They say that Chase cannot stand upon
a Democratic platform, and they will not sup
port him nnless he expresses himself more fully
ibis afternoon. Chnreh'hos a strong party, bat
will not stand long.
Hancock's followers are active. They count
upon the undivided support of the Southern del
egations on the seventh or eighth ballot. A.
strong effort Is now being made to effect and ad
journment, but the result was yet doubtful.

' Election*
[Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, j
Washington, July 7.—A letter to the Con*
gresslonal Executive Committee from the Chair
man of the Bepnblican Committee in'Mississippi,'
dated Vicksburg, July 3, says the indications are
that the rebel party .has carried the State.
It says enormoas frauds have been perpetrated;
and many loyal men and negroes have been kept
from the polls by violence. He deplores the re
moval of McDowell, who, he says wfas the only
good military man they ever had.
The river counties, where the most soldiers are
and where the voters were protected, give fifteen
thousand majority for the Constitution. The
other letters give some hopes. They say the
telegraph is entirely in the control of the rebels,
and Associated Frees repor's are unreliable.
Doings in the Senate*
[Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evenljfi.Bnltetlo.l
Washington, July 7, 3.20 P. M —The Senate,
at three o’clock, reached the Bank Sections of
the Tax bll, and carried.a motion to strike them
out. ;
The Finance Committee’s amendments to the
House bill have been uniformly agreed to, and
tho bill stands very nearly as printed.
The Senate is now acting on some farther
amendments moved by the committee, none of
which affect the general character of tho bill.
From tho progress already made, it looks as if
the Senate and the House would both get through
with it, and tho bill will be in tho hands of the
Conference Committee by tho close of tho week.
Tho Bridge Bill.
[Bpecial Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. 1
Washington, July 7th.—Tho Senate Commit-,
tee on Post Offices and Post Roads will probably

is to have the length of the span of each bridge
fixed by a Board of Engineers from the War De

looking after their interests in tSis matter:
