down, tolhe respective claims of GuariT,
CnAsE nd :WADE, with the probabilities
strongly against the first and in favor of
nominating OnesE, ''proilded impeachment
will be carried.". We are also informed
that "thp case is a desperate one for tlie Re
publicsnam 'Cis hardly- necessary , to add
that the Dispatch: "does not profe.ss . to be a
genuine Republican newspaper."
Dr-
.Jormrs are expressed as to the 'ability of
Republican Smators to carry the bills for
the admission of the new States by majori-
ties sufficient to overide a Presidential veto.
But it is intimated from Washington that
the President - will not veto the Arkansas bill,
suffering it, when passed, to become a law
without his legal assent, and also that the
newly-formed pcditical cabal will not oppose
the admisilon of the Southern Statesf in fact,
they prefer _them admitted immediately.
They say that Mr. Chase will carry a very
large part of the colored vote.

of the last'session is to be submitted to the

no objection to this, in any quarter, and if
a proper case can be made up to bring the
constitutionality of the Act before that tri

privilege of any„penions interested to do so.
The law has'essential merits, and the Cop

NATIONAL CONVENTION.
The Republicans met in quadrennialcinm

territories were fully. represented. : An-or
ganization was quietly zuulprompily effected
at the usual hour, the preliminary Commit.

five o'clock. The brief addresses of - GOV.
WAan, Chairman of- the ,E;ectuive

appointed temporary Chalmum of the Con

publicanlim, and the vital lmportance of its
mission. The dimgere ur, from
within and without, were .fitly alluded to,
and the delegates were reminded of the just
expectations with which their countrymen
wait upon their action.

proposed the,Constltotional amendment 'to

as sought my opinion on the question that
it was better to accept it; but the feeling was
utoverwheltnitig against it that no voice
could sustain It._ Then what ivastheConsti-
tutlortalAintmdme n t ? There was but one: :1

to' 'settle for thernselven. If we voted the

we could not count them. That was right. 1
:[Cheers and great applause. and cries of i

not think so. I think my course more

"Good," and. I applause.) When fought,
I I fought you openly and boldly; when I
i surrendered, I surrendered in good filth;
i and when I took the oath, I took it with I
. a purpose religiously to observe it. '
By my theory, and I had
r taught that it was the true one, my p been ri-
I mazy allegiance was to the State. W hen I
had formerly taken an oath to support the
Constithtlon.of the United States, I under
!
stood it to bind me only while thy State re
mained In the Union; but if she withdrew,
i which I believed she had a right to do for
• just cause, according to the necessity of the
case, of which she must be the judge, I did
not feel that I- had violated that oath when
I went with my State. But the oath - to
which the President of the United States
bound me was very different. I wassworn
now to support not only the Constitution.
but the Union of the States.[Applause.]
IWhen I did that, I abandoned the doctrine
of secession, for I cannot supportrage the Union
, the th io
of o States and encou seces.sion from
I, Unn. [Cheers.] The Virginia and
Kentucky , resolutions that included that
doctrine, as I understood them, had
always been the platform upon which
the Democracy had stood. But when that
platform was knocked from under my
party, I had nothing loft, to take hold on.
As I tuiderstood the doctrines ,of the -De
mocracy, they were State sovereignty and
right of secession. The sword has 'estab
lished a different doctrine, and henft it is
that I am no longer bound_ by allegiance to
the Democratic party. The Hamiltonian
and Websterlan construction of the Consti
tution has-been established by. the, sword.
I have acquiesced in that, and I find the
Republican party standing on the platform
to-day that has been almndoned by the
Democratic party. That naturally lead me'
into tb e Republican party. (Cheers) I know
In to is a very unpopular doctrine in the
South, but I believe It Is the true doctrine.
But let-me - tell - you, Mr.- • President,
and gentlemen '
that there are many
white men in the South; there are
large numbers of . original Democrats;
there are large numbers of original seces
sionists in the south who to-day stand
firmly by the Republieau party, and will
support the great Captain of the age, Gob.
Grant. [Great applause.l Out Democrat
ic friends there have opposed negro suf
frage, and denounded it as an outrage upon
manhood and upon society, and yet, In ;the
late`elections there, the negro, who Voted'
the Democratic ticket was really a very re l
spectable fellow, (laughter,) and the white'
man who vbfed the Republican ticket
was ascallawag and a traitor. (Cheers and
laughter.) ' They tell no there you estab
lish negro supremacy in the South. Not
. so, not so. While we grant to colored
pie all their righta, , civil and political,peo
we
do not expect them to be our masters.

The Pennsylvania delegation was in ses
sion all last night. The resolution previous
/lyitdopted'providing fbr unity . wits iescrnd
ed and the delegates will be privileged to
vote as they may individually prefer. It Is
highly probable that Ctintrs will receive .
the full complimentary vote of the State; as
a compromise on first ballot, after which
Wade will receive a solid vote. Our Stute
will have fifty-nine delegates in Convention
but will only be Privileged to cast fiftY-two
fotes. •
Grtmix will be nominated by acclamation.
The platform will view the band question
in a light adverse to the seductive policy of
rePtullation; will urge a speedy return to
specie basis, heartily endorse - the Congres
sional plan of reconstruction and expressly
rebuke those in high places who have, de,
stroyed the confidence of their loyal con- I
stituents, but will not read the recreants out
of the party.
The Convention will probably conclude
its labors to-day. Thus far the proceedings
have been marked witic harmony and good
feeling, giving full cvidenee that the people
I have sent fitting representatives to perforni
a work involving the destiny free goveni
meat and free institutions. The name of
our great political organization, as pre.
scribed by the proper committee, will hence
forward be the NATioNAL Tjarrox

TEE ASTEROIDS.
We receive. the intelligem of the dis
covery of another Asteroid at Marseilles,
Temple, making the ninety-seventh of these
bodies. The century of these minor planets
is now so nearly reached, that a brief reca
pitulation of the results' in this - field of As
tronomical research may not be unintereg
lug.
The first Asteroid' was 'found on the. lint
day of the first year of the nineteenth cen
tury, by Piarri, at Palemio. Pallas, Juno,
and Vesta shortly followed, and there the
progress of discovery was stayed for nearly
forty years.
In the end of 1845 Astrdewail discovered
by llencke, who also found Reba in 1847,
and since then no year has elapsed without
adding one to their number.
Of these ninety-seven planets fifteen have
been discovered in the Unite& States. Of
the remainder Prance has twenty-nine, Ger
_ many twenty-three, England fifteen, Italy
eleven, India two; 'Denmark one, and Ire.
land one.
Two have been found sit:teethe commence
ment of the present year, both in Prance.
There is great emulation among observers
!in this branch of discovery, and the sur
,prising results reached are due less to the
ease of the research (which is abundantly
tedious and difficult) than to the number
' and zeal ot those engaged _in ohservation.
The amount of labor bestowed on , the
amputation of orbits`of these distant
and invisible, bodies- 'lnpiense,- apdAer
'gathered results are published yearly in 4‘
volume, underlie charge of the Director of
the Royal Observatory at Berlin.:
It is a curious reflection that such a body
otmen can exist as that of these who rite
associated by this common pursuit, n a
little community, scattered from 'Michigan .
to India. yet united; known to each other,
passing theft lives in laborioue'observittion;

be impossible for them to report before to
necessarilyorrowoon nomination that will
defer th for Presi
dent. lam led to the vinion, from what
I have seen this afternoon, that the Conven
tion is somewhat impatient to proceed to
'that nomination. I therefore -hope that
the rules may be so - far ' modified as to
strike out that portion of them which pro
vides that the report of the Committee on.
Resolutions shall be disposed of before the
Convention proceeds to the nomination of
candidates. - [Cheers of, ',tiro " ' "no." ] If
the Convention desire totunerid My motion,
of course that is In order. I' will= confine
it, however, sir, to the Presidency. ,-
Mr. Ttionmson,, of Indiana—l fear the
Convention may be led to act under a MlS
apprehension. I think lam authorized to
say, as chairman of the Committee on lieso.
lutions, that you may reasonably expect a
report from ns very early to-morrowmorrt
ing. There Is no reason why we should be
engaged till to afternoon. It is
right, therefore, and proper, that you
should understand how we stand before we
vote on that proposition.
Mr. llartholomew, Pa.—l move to amend
the motion of the gentleman from Rhode
Island by moving that this Convention do
now proceed to the nomination of a candi
date for President and Vice President of
the trhit'43d Stateti. [Cries of igno to feno."
Mr. Coles, North Carolina—l ' Move to
lay the motion and the amendment on the
table. He withdrew this on'learning from
the Chair that this would table the entire
report of the Committee.
Mr. Van Zandt's amendment was then re.
jetted. -
The question recurred on the adoption of
the report. '

Specials of Tuesday state: The Impeach
ment Managers were in session this morn
ing, and had a number of witnesses in at
tendance, among whom was Ed. Cooper,
and
•
formerly the President's priWitis Secretary,
Acting Assistrult Secretary of the Treas
ury, and J. C Dunleavy, of Cincinnati:
•
The investtgatiOn of the disposition made of
Wooley's twenty five thousand dollars de-1
veloped the fact that Wooley had sent 1.6,-
000 to Peter Swaub, of Cincinnati. • Further
qnestioning, however made it appear that
this . was not the $25,000 in question, but
other fands,'and that part of the $25,000 wart •
sent to one Shooks, in New York. It is said
all these persons belong to what is known
as the "Whisky Ring." The same line of
investigation was followed up to-day. Thad • J
Stevens is better, and, as in attendance at
the session of the Committee. Among the
Witnesses sumindned by the managers to
div; was Montgomery Blair.
The N. Y. Tributie'a dispidek states that
Mr. J. C. Dunlavy, of Dayton, Ohio, yaester
vouch
day test Med before Managers tht he
Vouched for Wooley the
at the hank, and that
he (Dunisivy) had been sent by Wooley,to
Judge Blackman, of Ohio, offering him
$25,000 if he (Blackman) would use his in
fluence to defeat the cohviction of the Pres
ident, which Blackman declined. Woolev
testified to spending money in the interest
of Ids client in giving dinners •to parties,
at which Everts, Groesbeck and S. S. Cox
were present. • He accounted for $9,000 out
of the $25,000, but declined answering as
to the remainder. On being placed in cus
tody he stated that he had sent money to
Sheridan Shook, in New York, which was
a contradiction of his former statement,
that he had sent it •to Peter Schwaun of
Cincinnati. It is stated that a dispatch was
received from Mr. Shook stating that
Wooley's story is a sheer fabrication.
Senator Henderson has failed to meet the
committee investigating the case of, the
Missouri delegation.
Senator Ross has endeavored to prove to
Wade that by voting for a cq uittal he saved
the Republican party, but Wade cast him
off and told him never to speak to him
again as a friend.
j_lt reported to-day that thirty-six Sena-
Mrs will vote "guilty" on the second arti
cle,:but I think the vote on all the articles
on Monday will stand about thirty-fonr to
twenty.

, —At Lancaster, N. Y., Tuesday night, at
a hotel, Captain Beatty, formerly an•offmer
in one of the Vermont regiments, became
enraged at George - Hillard; because the lat
ter would not unlock the bar-room for him.
•He threatened tdcut his heart out, and in
Pursuance of the threat went to his room
got a dirk, and coming unobserved by Hil
lard, plunged the weapon in his throat. A
scuffle ensued, in the confusion of which
the Captain succeeded in stabbing him
again, the knife entering his side, and the
point breaking off on :one of his ribs.
Then Hillard. with what strength remain
ed, attacked Captain Beatty and beat hint
insensible, and almost to a jelly, after
which be sank fainting to the - floor. The
situation of both Is precarious,- although
the Captain is likely to recover.
