Among the. many signs of Democratic hopelessness as to any success in the Presi dential campaign, none are more unmistaka ble than the reckiessimpudeneewith which the rebel soldiers blustered and flourished in the Tammany Convention, and the promi nence Which waß given them in constructing the Seymour and Blair ticket. If the De mocracy had the slightest hope of success it would have kept up some outward show of decent regard for the loyal sentiment of the people. But, as it is, there is no pretence of any. distinction between patriotism and trea son, except such as is in favor of the rebellion and opposed tp all true loyalty. It is well for the people everywhere to read the closing proceedings of the Democratic Convention, , and to see an ex-Union soldier in the embraces of the very worst types of the'rebel gray backs. Preston, Fort Pillow Forrest and Hampton, all deep-dyed traitors to their country, were put forward as Blair’s chief endorsers. With an impudent assump tion ot magnanimity, these men extend a free pardon to the North. In their months the rebellion was a mere ‘differ ence of opinion.” North Carolina graciously avowed that She had no prejudice against Blair, (especially as he has pledged himself in favor of a second rebellion). A delegate, iTnrfipA'el soldier of Alabama,” cast his vote Vihglair. And to all this glorification of I ellion tbt neople in the galleries cried , 1 i!" Hofi ihe country believe in none of this. ]m < country at large, the rebellion was a l?e crime, not a mere “difference of Ton.” This crime was wrought' during the years of war, amid ■‘ars and sorrow and blood. At a fearful ;ost of treasure and of precious human lives, - -'the rebellion was crushed out; and while it / is in the nature of the American people to be | generous toward a conquered foe, they ought '• not and will hot forget the enormity of the crime, nor the price paid for' the ransom of the nation’s life. The Convention has grossly 'insulted the /American people by its ■ ognition -jp: f the traitors and rebels -yo controlled its action, and the Aople/tfill resent the insult. The Demo .«! /ratio party sympathized heartily with ' /the rebellion during all its progress, and it is J not strange that it should now welcome its S J representatives with open arms. But a thou j sand amnesty proclamations, or a thousand / Democratic Conventions cannot reverse the >' judgment of this great people, and it will be a sad day for the cause of human freedom when such degrading scenes as were recently enacted at Tammany Hall, between con ' jfesßed rebels and traitors, and men who call Themselves Union soldiers, receive the en dorsement of the majority of the American people. Between loyalty and treason,—between the men who were for the Union and those who were against it, there is a great gulf fixed, and • every attempt to close it up or bridge it over -must fail. Upon the one side of it stands the s,. • quiet, steadfast, prudent, resolute Grant and • the great army of soldiers and civilians who counted no sacrifice too great for the salva - lion of the Union. On the other, these Hamptons and Forrestß and all their com rades must’ stand forever, and find their fellowship in fraternizing with the Copper head Seymours of the North, and the strag gling military who, like Blair, have wandered over to their camp. The Democracy it Tammany Hall, speak , <*“■ Jug for its whole party, has openly declared for the rebellion, and it must bear the brunt * ofits reckless folly in the coming campaign. - A party that has -voluntarily weighted itself ' : down with each a load, mußt sink by its own . gravitation; into depths of disgraceful defeat which have not yet been fathomed. It pro claims that it has no choice between the soldier who fought for, and the soldier that Jought againsc his country. The issue is simple, and the wayfaring man, though a ' fool, cannot err therein. a woßs or caution. If Governor Seymour has the slightest fear ■that he will he elected to the Presidency, the best thing he can do is to get his life well in sured. Mi. Seymour is a servile tool of the xebel power as he was before and ttuough ■ont the war; l!rat i_s Associate upon the ticket Stands so clear upon the record that the ten ure of lifeand office of the principal candidate very precarious. Sevmonr talks prettily about constitutional right* and all die accustomed rigmarole of the pituclble Cop perhead politician who endeavors to reconcile jjjfl conscience with his practices and his n ir poseß; but he does not come out with the boldneßh. of a. Biair and urge the trampling of the reconstruction laws under Presiden •rtni font-and other revolutionary measnrea. If such a calamity should thj country as the election of Seymour and Blair, Seymour would go. to a certain length »t rebel dictation, and while talking about constitutional rights, he would no doubt en deavor to manipulate the army and navy to *uit revolutionary ends, precisely as he fo jnebted violent opposition to the dratt in New York just id season Iciaid Lea in his marcii into Pennsylvania.; /. Bat Blair, according to hie own showing, would act the dictator if he .were President, and selling the reiaa of absol utejpo wer, he would openly use the army and navy for the purpose of . destroying Con gress, nullifying Its' : acts and re-establishing Southern rule. Bis letter to Colonel Broad ■ head gives no uncertain sound, and in the event of the success of tin ticket it may proye the death-waiTant of Horatio Sey mour. Let the ex-Governor look back at the. his tory .of Presidential administrations and tako what comfort he can from them. -. Harrison, Taylor and Lincoln all fell, and their suc cessors were the men who best suited the purposes of the wily and desperate politicians who so long ruled the Democratic party and the country. Buchhnan barely escaped the National Hotel wholesale poisoning that was 'intended to make Breckinridge President and enable the South to take a more direct cat to the accomplishing of. their ends' than .that which they subsequently adopted. , Senator Nye used plain language in the Sen ate yesterday, when he'declared that theob. ject of the wire-workers in and out of the Democratic Convention was to make food for poison ojf the pistol of the Presidential candi date after hia election, and thus secure for their purposes a President who has in ad vance declared his treasonable intents in lan guage that cannot be misunderstood. Let Horatio Seymour take heed. He has put himself in the hands of “Mends” who are less coarse and ignorant, but who are no les* unscrupulous, cruel and wicked than those other “Mends” of his whom he addressed in New Yorkin IBG3 by the murky glare of burning orphan asylums, and over the dead bodies of butchered men and women. DEMOCRATIC GENERALS. The material out of which the Democracy proposes to manufacture its' military enthu siasm is of .a. very inferior quality. The element of fsifl, loyal Union soldiers at its command extremely small that it has been compelled to draw largely, almost ex clusively, upon its rebel soldiery, and accord ingly we find General Blair supported right and left by outspoken rebels who still sport the military titles conferred by Jefferson Davis. Added to them we find such military failures as John A. McClernand figuring large ly in the Democratic Convention and doing cheap little bits of melo-drama, by “ crossing the bail and taking Hampton by the hand, amid vociferous cheering.” it is worth while to revive the record of some of these wonderful Union generals who' figure in the escort of Seymour and Blair. Of McClernand, General Grant spoke in this wise : • '' “He 1b entirely unfit for the position of Corps commander, both on the march and on the bat tjft-ffcld. Looking after his corps gives me more ■iiibor and Infinitely more uneasiness than all the remainder of my department.”— Grant to Halleck, May 22,1863. Referring to McClernand’s removal from his command, General Badeau, in his biog raphy of General Grant, says: “McClornand early developed the qualities which afterward Insured hia downfall. At first he had been willing to learn from men versed In their profession and experienced In war; but he soon set about accomplishing his advance ment by political means. His efforts, partially successful, to obtain a high command; his pro tracted machinations to supersede Grant, which were only defeated by the wise counsels of tho Commander-in-Chief, and the practical good sense of the administration; his insubordination, incompetency and restless ambition, displayed on bo many occasions during the Vicksburg cam paign, gave Grant the only real embarrassment proceidlng from the conduct of his subordinates, that be experienced for more than a year. “The Commander was long suffering Indeed. Though repeatedly urged to relieve McClernand, when that officerwrotelottors such as no soldier 6bould receive from a subordinate ; or when, with intolerable assumption, he claimed the credit of operations which his own inefficiency bad near ly marred, Grant’s Only answer was ‘I cannol af ford to quarrel triih a man whom I am obliged to command.' Finally, about the 14th of May, he received ‘authority to relieve any person who, from ignorance In notion, "Or for any cause, inter fered with or delayed hiß operations.’-” General Sherman's opinion of this Tam many hero was Ithus expressed officially to General Grant. Teferring to the “congratula tory order” for which McClernand was re lieved “It gives me no pleasure tb notice such a cata logue of nonsense, sueh an effusion of vain glory and hypocrisy. I know too well that the brave and intelligent soldiers and officers who compose that corps will not be humbugged by such stuff It perverts the truth to the ends of flattery and self-glorification, and contains many untrnths, among which is one monstrous falsehood. * * * * With these remarks I leavo tho matter where it properly belongs, in TheJiands of the command ing general, who kupwß his plan 3 and orders, sees with an eye single to success and his country's honor , and not from the narrow and contracted circle of a subordinate commander, who exaggerates the importance of the events that fall under his im mediate notice, and is fllled with an itching desire for ’fame not earned.’ ” The gallant McPherson was also assailed by this fugleman of the renegade Blair, and thus wrote to Gen. Grant: “There Is a vain-glorlonsness about tho order, an ingenious attempt to write himself down tho hero, the master-mind, inconsistent with the high-toned principle of the soldier sdns peur et sans reproche. Though ‘born o warrior, as he himself stated, he has evidently forgotten one of the most essential qualities, Viz., that eieivated, refined sense of honor, which, while guarding his owt rights with jealous care, at all tunes renders justice to others.” This is the style ofthe Union general that the Democracy relies upon to lead its forlorn hope against Grant and Colfax, and McCler nand is only one specimen. The record of these military abortions should be kept before the people, that they may not he misled by high sounding military titles into the idea that the real soldiers of General Grant will be found anywhere in the coming campaign save under the standard of their tried and trusted chief The Democracy is welcome to all the McGler nands that it can Take and scrape from the Unio.. ranks. The more of such dead wood that it accumulates the heavier will be the load it will have to carry. THE ABUT REDUCTION. It is to be hoped that Congress will proceed carefully in the proposed reduction of the army, not only because it is not easy to see 1 how mneh of the present force can be safely dispensed with, but because there should be no removal of good soldiers for political reasons, except under the moßt extreme cir cumstances. Mr. Butler’s amendment of yesterday is evidently aimed at General Han cock. This is a very short-sighted mode of attack. - General Hancock’s military record is a very fine one, and although he has des troyed much of its prestige by bis SHIS tiAILY EVEMG SATURPAV; JULYH, 18681/ foolish adminiSfraUbh of the Fifth Milk- I tary District, where he so manifestly commencedjhla deliberate •: combinations for the Bresidencyj iris hot necessary to“ punish .him by retiring, him from the army. He should not be rated with a manlike Blair, for example who haa gone Into a Presidential cam paign on a platform of his 6win framing, the one idea ofwhich is revolution as the chief hopeof the Democracy! Although nolonger entitled to the same cpnfldence as before, in positions where polltibal consideratfbnk are prominent, Hancock would doubtless prove bimSelt as gallant a cprps commander under Grant, in another war, as” he' did at any time during the rebellion. As an execu live officer at the head of a Southern Military District he was a great disappointment; but beeause he was weak enough to “sell oat” to Andrew Johnson in DoUisiana, is not, of itself, a good reason for dropping him from the army rolls. Nor would it be a gracious office to bestow upon General Grant, to com pel him to designate what Major-Generals should be dropped.'Between Thomas, Meade, Sheridan, Hancock and Halleck, General Grant would have no choice but to drop the last two: nained. Such a duty would be a most disagreeable one and we are very sure that General Grant would not thank Congress for imppsing it upon him. The mischievous effects of the so-called eight-hour law, which went into operation on the Ist'of July, are already showing them selves in a general strike among the miners of the Lehigh and Schuylkill regions. The coal operators, for a long time, have been making little or nothing, and the redaction of the hours of labor, without a correspond ing reduction of wages, will be ruinona to them, or compel them to cease mining alto gether. The strike of the miners will stop the supply of coal, of course, and hence furnaces, factories, machine shops and other establishments must cease work, and they are stopping already throughout the mining country. In this way many thousands of men will be thrown out of work, and they and their families will be reduced to poverty. Besides this, the price of coal will rise, and this will be even more severely felt by the poor than the rich. The coal operators cannot be expected to submit to the dictation of the miners and go on mining at an absolute loss on every ton ef coal mined, as they must do if they pay for eight hours’ work the same price they have paid for ten. They can better afford to let their mineß stand idle. If the miners become riotous, as is threatened, the Governor will have to call out the military,and this will not be the smallest or least expensive evil brought upon the State by tbe injudicious act of the last legislature.

[From theßiiringSeld Republican, July A] Hie persons drowned while crossing the ferry at Bomh Holyoke to Williamanset, Monday, wets, .asdlcst reported, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel C. Davis, and eon, of this city. On Monday afternoon Mr. Davis hired a horse and carriage and took his •wife and son to ride. 'They, by the steam ferry, •crested the Connecticut River toßouth Holyoke. After 'being gone a brief time they returned to the fenry to recross. When they were near the centre of the channel, Mr. Davis,asked Mr. Smith for the pail that was used for watering horses. Mr. Smith pointed it oat to trim, and stepped into the.engine room. On dom ing dnt he discovered .that Mr. Davis had let down the forward ehaln, and taken off the bridle, and was giving the horse some water from the pail. He told him it was very careless, bnt Davls sald the horse would not drink with bis bit in, and at the -came moment started for another pall of water, leaving the horse standing, with his bridle off. Davis had gone but a few feet when the horse started for the front of the boat Mr. Smith caught him by the nose and foretop, but In spite of his, exertions was carried over with him, Mr. Davis going off at the same time. One of tbe horse’s feet struck Mr. ..Smith, who was somewhat hart in the hip. After going down twiee ho came to the surface just forward of one of the paddle-wheels,' and with -the utmost exertion cleared them, caught hold of the stern of the boat and got aboard. -It was a most extraordinary escape. ■ ' The carriage meanwhile hung by one wheel to the forward end of the-hoati and Mr-r Smith’s Idea Was to extricate it, if possible so as to let the horse rise and swim to the shore. To accomplish this be ordered the engineers to awing the boat round, and that proving ineffectual, the steam was reversed and the boat started back, when tbe From Kansas, carrisgeeunk entirely from -view.- -The efforts wire meteAS, asdoubtiet» all vrero drowned .be fore be bed time to do this, and probably tbe father and mother .before Mr. Smith .had got Upon' we?- boat. He saw the boy -riso to'the «u riscc after getthigpn, but was so exhausted that be could not spring' ttf’save him.' The people gathered, in crowds.. on ; tho. shores,-and n search fortes Bodies /-The body of tbe woman was drawn out In the carriage, and her hoop-skirt was fonnd somuch on tangled in it that It was found necessary,, to ent it off. Mr. Davis was 43 years of age, and married his wife, whose maiden tuuno was Harriet Rider,' in Dover, foetog at that time residents of Ports mouth. -' ! THE COURTS. Quarter Sessions— Judge Peirce.—Arthur Goldsmith, a farmer, chaiged . with receiving stolen goods, was heard on a Writ Of habeas cor pus. The prosecutor alleged that his step-sou took from him a horse and wagoh under pre tencoof using It to servo customers with bread. Instead of doing (bis, he .took : the team to the Wm. Penn Hotel yards, where he met the defen dant 'and offered to sell the borso and wagon. After come negotiation, the defendant bought for $llO, while the prosecutor alleged that the team wos worth $275. The defendant in argument referred to tho absence of any proof of the guilty knowledge of the fact that the team'had been stolen. It was an ordinary occurrence to have sales In the hotel yards, and on Ibis, occasion the defendant gave the full value of the team'and subsequently made no concealment of the transaction, bat at once admitted to the prosecutor that he had purchased the team. ;The Judge concludedtosend the casetoajuty.

Little or nothing is known of the antecedents of the forger, but it is fair to eay that he was not a member of either the reg. ular or the open board and that no member of cither or ganization is involved with him in tbe perpetra. tion of these frauds, snd that nothing nos been beard of him eince the discovery of the three altered Fort Wayne certificates. Whether he has succeeded in similat ly alte* ing and uttering any of the other certifi cates bought by him has not yet transpired, but broken and others handling the securities which be is known to h' ve secured potsevsi n of should ecr dinize the num *>ere carefully. There in no occasion for apprvhen&ion arising from tbe present frauds, as their unsoat extent is already ascertained, and the amount involved i* not very, largo; but the i oesihility of such forgeries calls for a remedv.

Although the financial portions of the Republican and the Democratic platforms are substantially alike when they are critically ex amintd, the wording of the Democratic ono has had a dlstutbirg effectupon the public mind, because It speaks of redemption in lawful money wherethe promise to pay in coin is not dlriinctlv specified in tbe authorizing act, or on tbe face of the bona. But there is literally nothing better than this In thn Chicago platform, although th« hhpreksion meant to be conveyed is that all payments wilrben adeincoin.

Evcnln* BuUstir,] WAsmsGTOji, Jnly 11.—Tho first; regular Old Dominion ratification meeting which has been held In Alexandria, Vai, since 1861,' came off last night. Enthusiastic in tho hope of seeing Frank Blair’s programme carried out, the rebels were in high spirits, and the negroes, in general, pru dently kept out of their way. • Tire tvamlilngtoii t ire Department, rSpectol Despatch to the Philadelphia Brenlna HulletliL Washington, D.

Washington, JulylL House Mr. Bontweli (Ujbb ), from the Judi ciary Committeo.reported the bill to fix tho times for holding terms of the United Status District Courts in Virginia. Passed. It provides that tho terms at Richmond and Noriolk shall be held, as heretofore, at Stannton the second Tuesday in April and October, at Wjtbeville the Tuesday in April and October. ' Mr. Wilson (Iowa), from {be same committee, reported the joint resolution to extend the pro visions oi the act of Jnly 4. 1864, restricting the jurisdiction of tbe Court of Claims to tho loyal citizens of the 1 State of Arkansas. Passed. On motidn of Mr. Clarke (Kan.) the Senate bill authorizing tho construction of a bridge across the Missouri river at Port Leavenworth was taken from the Speaker’s table for action; Mr. Logan (Hi.) offered an amendment autho rizing the construction of a bridge across the Missouri river, at St. Joseph, by the St. Joseph and Denver City Railroad Company. The amendment was agreed to and the bill passed. Mr. Axtell (Cal.), from the Committee of Commeice, reported a bill anthorizlog the Secre tary of the Treasmy to grant an American regis ter to the Hawaian brig victoria, owned in San Francisco, California. Passed. Mr. Phelps (Md.) presented a resolution to carry Into effect the stn section of the act of Feb ruary 25th, 1862, relative to the sinking fnnd, which, on his motion, was laid on the table and ordered to be printed. The Honse proceeded to tbe unfinished busi ness of yesterday, being the bill to rednee and fix the military peace establishment, the ques tion being on Mr Paine’s amendment to the sth section, modified by him so that there shall, after the 31st of March, 1869, be only six brigadier generals, to be designated by the President within ten days preceding that date, without regard to seniority; the beßteix brigadier generals to re main in* commission. Mr. Garfield (Ohio) opposed the amendment on the ground that the selection of six Brigadier Generals as the best,-wonld place a stain on the name and honor of every man mustered out. Mr. BuUer (Mass.) said tbut the question was whether the army was or was not to bo reduced. The bill provided that the nnmber of generals should not be reduced except by death,or resig nation, or dismissal for canse. He was very anxious that there should bo a rednetion of tbe army, and be wanted to begin by redneing tbe generals.- Every one of them cost about $20,000 u year, with his retinue. It wos said that this was a bill to reduce the armv.and if it were passed iu lts present form it would be passed In his judgment os an electioneering dodge, nothing else. The simple question was whether members were earnest in the matter. If they were not, then the bill should be passed as reported. Mr. Paine (Wis.) defended his amendment from tbe attack made by Mr. Garfield, and hoped that it would be sustained as coming nearer to meet the views of members on both sides, and secur ing the objects of the Committee on Military Af fairs. Without disposing of the amendment to the sth section, respecting brigadier-generals, gthe House reconsidered its action of last night in adopting the amendment of Mr. Bntler to tho 4th section, respecting major-generals, and Mr. Paine moved as a substitute for Mr. Sailer's amend ment the following: After the 31st day of March, 1839, there shall be only three Major-Generals, and the President shall,within ten days preceding said date, desig nate, without regard to seniority, the best three Major-Generals to remain in commission, and the others shall be mastered out of the service of tho United States, on said date, or within ten days thereafter. ; The substitute was agreed to, and then . the 4th section was struck out, and Mr. Paine’s amendment substituted for it Teas, 79 ; nays 44. the Democrats voting generally In the nffirmia tive. v , A similar amendment was agreed to as a sub stitute for the sth section, providing for six Brigadier Generals. The sixth section refers to vacancies in the office of Adjutant-General, Quartermaster-Gene ral, Commiesarv-General of Subsistence, Chief of Ordnance, Chief of Engineers, Paymaster- General, Surgeon-General and Bnrean of Military Justice,- directing that they shall be Ailed by .the appointment or assignment of an officer Who shall have the rank, pay and emoluments of a Colonel of cavalry. This section gave rise to discussion between Messrs. Garfield, Bntler, Paine and Logan. Mr. Logan declared that a mere pretext to reduce th 6 army was not the way to deal with the people. This bill did not reanco the army, although it pretended .to do bo. It did not redace It either In numbers or dollars. , He was in favor of reducing tbe army by reducing generals, colonels and other officers in tbe same ratio as the men: ; Mr. Garfield said therewere now In the army 2,858 commissioned officers; the bill proposed to place 7851 of Ihem-rmore than one-fourth—on half-pay, which was precisely the same thing as ceasing to pay nearly 400 officers. He conld not understand the reason for saying that' was no re duction. 'There were now 46,000 enlisted men in the army, and-it was proposed to reduce that number to 25,000. - Fire.— This morning about quarter past nine o'clock a fire broke out In the kitchen of the bonse of John Reifsny der;Npi 2UB Master street.

XLth Congress-—second session. Benate. — Mr. Cragin introduced a bill author izing the apppointment of a commission to ex amine the claim of Montana for the en rollment of volunteers daring the late Indian war. Referred to the Committee on Territories. Mr. Connees (Cal.) offered a resolution, which was adopted,' asking the President whether a commission has been Issued to James E. Coey, as Collector of Internal Hevenuo for Saif Fran cisco, California, and if not, for what reason it has not been Issued. Mr. Morgan (N.

It authorizes (he registration or enrollment of fifteen Canadian built vessels owned by citizens of the . United States, and having at all times been employed on Ibe Lakes, provided there shall be paid a tax upon them equal to the internal revenue tax npon the material and construction of similar vessels of American build. Mr. Wilson (Mass ) called np the bill relative to the Freedmen’e Bureau, and providing for its discontinuance. Mr. Davis (Ky.) opposed the bill,as interfering with the President's right ot ad interim, appoint ments, and moved to strike ont the clause after tbc words “In case of vacancy in the office of Commissioner happening during the recess of the Senate,” and inserting the words “such office shall thereafter cease and determine.” Mr. Conness—lf yon press that it would be a premium on taking the life of the Commissioner. On motion of Mb Howard (Mich.) the words “agents, clerks and assistants” were added after words “assistant commlssipner.” The bill was then passed. fHouse— Continued from the Third Edition. It was proposed to reduce the forty-five regi ments of infantry to thirty, the ten regiments of cavalry to eeven,and the five regiments of artillery to four. In the face of these facts he conld not understand how it conld be charged that the Committee of Military Affairs hod bronght in a bill which pretended to reduce, but did not reduce the army and its expenditures. Mr. Pile (Mo.) remarked that tho Secretary of War had told him, this merning, that at the rate at which officers were now dismissed from the service for incompetence, drunkenness and im morality, one-fourth of till the officers in the army would be got rid of in 12 months. Tbe debate on the section was closed, and the House proceeded to vote on an amendment, offered by Mr. Butler (Mass.), reducing the pre sent incumbents of tbe offices described in ft to the rank and pay of Colonel of cavalry. The amendment was agreed to—yeas, 81; nays, 25. Mr. Butler moved an additional amendment, modified by Mr. Paine, to reduce by one grade all the staff officers. Agreed to. Mr. Garfield reported from the Committee an amendment reducing the staff on the Quarter Master's and the Ordnance Department as fol lows: Quartermaster General's with the rank of Colonel, six: Deputy/Quarter Master Generals with the rank of Lieut.

Henry Ward Beecher: ] I left Brooklyn on Monday, ,Tnly 6, but not be-J fore the World had 'pnblished that I had. on San day morning,in a political sermon, come out for Chase Presidency, and against Grant; ahd i I have steh the stoiy every day since racing through the papers. There is not a word of j truth In it. The sermon was not political, and it S made no allnslon either to Grant or to Chase. The application of some of its paragraphs; in j either direction, was the work of the reporter of the World, not mine. I have never been a Chase man. I have for years, as a leader In public affairs deemed him, like his greenbacks,ob promising more on the face then they are worth in gold. While the New Fork IndependentWßß landing him as a demigod, and th* New York Tribune was using his name to obscure the prospects of Grant, I heartily and openly dis agreed with both of them, for I thoroughly liked Grant and thoroughly distrusted Chose. He 1b a splendid man to look upon, bnt a poor man to lean npon. Ambition lifts some men towards things noble ond good—makes them large and generous. Other men’s ambition blurs the sharp, lines and distinctions between right and wrong, and leaves them, in the eagerness of over-selfißti desires, to become a prey of bad men. I have for years felt that Mr. Chase’s ambition was coil- ' Burning tbe better elements of his nature. I have liked Grant from the first. Solid, un pretentious, straightforward; apt to succeed an& not spoiled by success, wise in discerning men, skillful Su using them, with the rare gift (Thick: Washington had In an eminent degreejof wisdom : In getting wisdom from other men’s councils—l! confidently anticipate, that, great as his military success has been,he will hereafter be known even, more favorably for the wisdom of hisclvibadmin istratiou. cJy The seven-fold humiliations and recantations' through which Chaee was required to go for a Democratic nomination only to sea the smiling Seymour looking benignly bis lost - estate, has no parallel except In the Immortal history of ReinekeFuchs.
