The ChfoniO Convention. The diricordant cliques of what was once a great political party, met in conclave to-day in Chicago. Goodoisen :all over the land, have! long suspected tbafrthis meeting was designed still further to distract the nation and afford aid and comfort to its ene mies. Timb alone ..can, establish or dispel these suspicions. At this time, it is hard to tell who will be selected for sacrifice at the ballot-box in November next. The latest suggestion we have heard relative to -the ohoice of a Presidential ticket', by' the Chicago Convention, is to the effect that the first bal lots will be close between the cliques already operating for-prominent candidates, and that then finding it impossible 'to choose, they will unite, is in'the case of Polk and Pierce, on some new man. In that case Don Carlos Buell is tiipoken'of with Seymour of Connect:: lout, as the next on the ticket.

Letter from General Seymour, Lately a Prisoner of War. Nxw Yonn, Friday, August 19, 1864. To the Editor of the New York Times : I have just received the following most in teresting letter from Gen. Seymour, lately re leased from " under fire" at Charleston. As an old West Point Officer, with General An derson at Sumter, .and iitatiotted many years in the South; he knows the t3outhern people well. Be isal4braioa, tsue soldier, devofed to the Uniqii ,and, p[ at the time of the unfortunate ttlit/11 Florida, ie was accused' of lufewarmness - brthose ignorant of his character, •he has proved, by his action on: many a battle-field, as well as by his plucky talk to the rebels at Gordonsville, when cap tured in May last, that he was every inch loyal to the old flag. Yours, &c., W. E. D. ' 'Jr. • WlLlzusts.rowN, leisss., Aug. 15, 1864. My Dear Sirt:—You ask for my impression: 'of the present Condition of the Southern Con federacy, and you shall have them. For the benefit of our cause I wish they might be im pressed upon every soul in the land, that the confidence begotten of my three - months' observations in the interior of the South might be shared by every man who has the least connection with the responsibilities of this struggle. And lam sure that these opinions are not peouliar to myself. Every one of the fifty officers just exchanged will ex press the same—every one of them, whether from the jails of Charleston, or the pens of Macon and AnderSonpllo.• will oo)ilidently tell the same story. The rebel cause is fast failing from exhaus tion. Their two grand armies have been re inforced this summer from the last resources of the South. From every corner of the land, every. old man and every,boy capable of bear ing a rifle has been impressed, willingly or un willingly, and hurried the front. Lee's army was the: first so strengthened : It was at the expense of Hood's. " Governor Brown told the truth with a plainness that was very bit ter, but, it, ,the; leas the truth.. Let me extract a few prominent . etatements from his proclamation of July 9, addressed to the ;;Reserved Militia of Georgiaf'•*; •-• • - "A ]ate correspondence with the President of the Confederate States, satiefled my mind. that Georgia is to be left to herawn tb.loutdes to supply the reinforcements to General John ston's army, which are a ndispertsablc - ,to•the ;protection of Atlanta, and preient the State from being overrun by the overwhelming numbers now-under command of the Federal General upon our soil. ' 'But there is need Of farther reinforce ments, as will •be seen by the accompanying letter of General Johnston, * *- And it becomes My duty to , call forth every man in 'the State able to bear arms, as fast as they can be armed, to aid in the defenee of our home's, our altars, and the grave' 1' our ancestors: "If :the Confederate Governnient will not send the large cavalry force (now, engaged in raiding and repelling raids) to destroy the long line of railroads over which General Sherman brings his supplies from Nashville, and thus compel him.to retreat with •the loss of most of :his army, the people of Georgia, 2oXO haffe dlready been drawn upon more heavityinpreper tion tom:Motion than those of any other gtate Os the Confederacy, must at-all hazarcli, and iit any sacrifice, rusla to the front. • • EMIE MEE "If .General Johnston's army is destroyed; the Gulf States are thrown open-to the enema and we; are ruined."

The. following is from. a letter written , by qne Rebel to another, that aCcidentally fell into the hands of one of my fellow, pris oners and for the tiuthentieity - of Which I vouch: Very few persons are preparing to obey the late call of the Governor. His summons will meet with no, response here. The peo ple are soul-sick, and heartily tired of this hateful, hopeless strife. They would end it if 'they could'; _but our ' 'Would"-be rulers will take good mire that no Oflortunity'le given the pe!?ple .to vote against ir.. By lies, by fraud and.by' Chicanery this revolution was him:al/Milted"; by force, by 'tyranny and the Suppression of truth it is sustained. It is nearly time that it should end, and of sheer depletion it must end before long. We have had enough of want and woe,, enough of cruelty and carnage, enough of cripples and' ecirpses.

To every intelligent soldier who has fought through all these indecisive campaigns on al most numberless indecisive fields, the ques tion constantly arises, with toucbThg force, why we do not,overwhelm our enemies? Tens of thousands of lives are lost because murarray of strength is so disproportionately lesallian - that against which we battle.

What folly, then, - to struggle on in thie way, when we can send fo the field five times the force already there. What weakness to think we cannot conquer the South. Behind the James only boys and old men are to be Been, while here men buy and sell as in the olden days of quiet, and regiments of able-bodied citizens crowd the streets of our cities.

Peace for the South will be 'sweet indeed, for us, except through Southern stitjugation, but anarchy and war forever.— 'Vhe Pacific, the Western, the 'Eastern States would at once fall asunder. The South' would be — derail:unit, and the people of the North would deserve to be driven a-field under negro overseers, to hoe corn and cotton for Southern masters.

Our total loss in the fight of .Thursday will not, it is said, exceed 2000, while that of the enemy is supposed to be about 5,000. We still hold about four miles of the Weldon rail road and the portion abandoned by the 211 corps was effectually destroyed. • Deserters who came in yesterday say that Gen. A. P. Hill's corps, two divisions of Longstreet's corps, and the Jeff Davis Legion, were the rebel troops engaged on Thursday. They also state that since the Weldon rail road fell into our, possession pork has ad vanced_to six and beef to eight dollars a pound in Richmond, and their officers declare that the road Must be recaptured at all hazards. Army of the Potomac ALL . QII I E T. MoVemen& of Our Troops. WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. A letter received from the Army of the Po tomac, dated August 28th, says that.all was quiet excepting the usual picket firing in front of the 9th corps. The fighting on our right on Thursday, was occasioned by a move ment of our troops from one position to another, which the enemy evidently did not understand, .and were perhaps fearful that it meant another attack.on the right at Reams' S ation; on the Weldon railroad. From Europe. Arrival of the New-I.'orlt. The London Times on American Affairs IMPORTANT EUROPEAN ITEMS MOVEMENTS .OF BLOCKADE RUNNERS NEW Yosx, Aug. 29. The steamship New York,from South Framp ton on the 17th inst., arrived this morning. The steamers Europa and Marathon arrived out on the 15th, and the Belgian on the 17th. The Times espresses astonishment at the manner in which the Federal bonds are ab sorbed at Frankfort, adding that each suc cessive fall is regarded by the existing bond holders with gratification instead of dismay. The Times believes that the campaign in America will continue unless the danger to Washington is so great as to demand the re turn of the main body of Grant's army. The capture of Richmond will be a test of the ability of the North to make a permanent impression on the Confederacy. The Confederate loan advanced 3 per cent. on the news of Grant's repulse before Peters burg—the quotation being 77®79. A further diminution of specie to the ex tent of four millions of francs from the bank of France causes uneasiness. The Prussian Government has prohibited the export from Jutland of cattle and grain 'during the armistice. Saxony intends proposing the fallowing to the German diet : That an explanation be de manded of Austria. and Prusia, with reference to their having permitted the King of Denmark to Cl* rights to them to which the King had no title. The frigate Niagara had sailed from Lisbon. Her destination' was unknown. A - powerful three funnelled steamer anchored off Fogres, Ireland, on the 13th, and sailed again in the evening. She is supposed to be a blockade runner. A warlike party, with one of the. Alabama's lieutenants landed at that point. It is be •lieved that she is to carry an immense supply of clothing to the Confederate States. The U.. S. slow of war Sacramento arrived at Plymouth on the 6th. She came in colli sion with the Norweigan bark Ceres, and sunk her. The crew were saved. The Sacramento was uninjured. , Wrecking of a Rail w ay ' Train by the Recent Tornado at the West—Several Persons Severely Insured ) .&e CIIWINNATI, August 28. An accident occurred on the Indianapolis and Cincinnati railroad on Friday. About thirty persons were injured, one or two proba bly fatally. None were killed. The' train consisted of one baggage and three passenger cars, which were completely wrecked. The accident was caused by a hurricane. 'The engineer of the train saw it coming, and just as the train reached Weitzel's bridge he put on all the steam he could raise in order to clear the bridge and gain the shelter of an embankment just ahead of it. The tornado, however ] struck the train, and with such force as to lift the,cars from the track. Two of the passenger carp made two complete revolutions and then landed, with their wheels upper most, in a ravine. Stone walls were lev_elled by the force of the wind, and the massive roof of a large stone house vas lifted into tbe air and carried a con siderable distance. - - - Kentucky.
