ATTENDANCE DAILY.

dom of Minnesota, Lincoln of New York, and num-
bers of others, have been superseded by new candi-
dates. * * * In four New England States,
New Jersey, Wisconsin, and perhaps other States,
nominations have not been made, and New York
and Pennsylvania have still about thirty to
make. In these States there is no guessing
how many old members may yet decline, or be
slaughtered by rotation' and love of novelty.
It appeals for the return of such faithful men as
Boutwell, Dawes, Ames and Baldwin, Jenekes and
Dixon, Stevens and Eta, of New England ; Van
Wyck, Kelsey, Marvin, Cornel, Ketcham and
Selye, of New York ; Allison of lowa, Judd of
Illinois ; Washburne, Paine, and Sawyer, of Wis-
consin. Young men ought to have a fair chance,
and where clearly better than present members let
them come in. But why rashly experiment ? Re-
construction is threatened, finances are unsettled,
and—whether Grant or Seymour be President—
this is no time to fill the house, with recruits and
run the risk of finding them bad or indifferent."
General Van Wyck has absolutely declined a nomi-
nation, and the Hon. E. M. Madden, of Orange
County, will be selected as candidate for the Re-
publican party. The elections in Vermont have
been bailed with great rejoicing by the Re-
publicans, which the result in Maine will con-
siderably increase. Returns from the Governor's
vote in Vermont have 'been received from 208
towns, with the following results :—Page (Rep.)
39,698, Edwards (Dem.) 13,725, Page's majority,
25,973. Thirty-three towns remained to be heard
from. Reports from 194 towns show that 185 Re-
publicans and 7 Democrats have been chosen to the
Legislature, while in four cases there is no choice.
The National Intelligencer gives the following
figures :
Democrats. Radicals.
1867 11,576 31,986
1868 15,552 42,000
1864 13,321 42,412
—announcing this to be" truly a small victory to brag
of. The real victory is with the Democracy, who,
without any effort have gained in greater proportion
than the Radicals, who put forth every pos-
sible effort to make some sort of a set-off for
the splendid Democratic achievement in Kentucky."
The Spring field Republican says :—" In regard to
the Presidential canvass the news from all parts of
the North and West is in the highest degree cheer-
ing. The good feeling induced by the Vermont
election will be deepened by the result in Maine."
Mr. Greeley says the country counties in New York
will give Grant and Colfax 100,000 majority, which
New York city cannot overcome ; Pennsylvania
and Ohio are sure to go right ; and there is even a
chance that Grant and Colfax may carry New
Jersey and Delaware. At Wilmington, in the
latter State, the Republicans have just elected
municipal officers by a majority increased 100 over
last year." "In the last few days of the can-
vass," observes the Nation, " the Republicans
in Vermont began to hope that their last year's
majority could be increased by five or six
thousand. Outsiders supposed them mistaken. The
election comes in a busy time of the year for a
rural population ; the weather has been hot ; the
Democrats had not a ghost of a chance of carrying
the State ; and, altogether, it seemed likely that
Republican carelessness would give " gains" for the
World, and " Behold, how brightly breaks the
morning !" would be in capitals in all the Demo-
cratic papers. But every Republican was out ;
in the heaviest vote ever cast the gain on last
year's vote is probably nine thousand. This is be-
cause Hampton and Vallandigham were permitted
to make themselves the present leaders of the Demo-
cratic party. Practically the people are asked to
say that we ought to give the negro back to his old
owner, and substitute a South Carolina Black Code
for the Civil Rights Bill. On that issue Vermont
at any rate seems to have its mind made up. The
effect will no doubt be good in Maine, and we
dare say there are more Republican voters in
Pennsylvania this morning than two days ago."
Nothing official has been heard from the recent
Idaho election, but the whole Democratic ticket
has undoubtedly been chosen. The State election
in Tennessee will occur on the sth of November,
having been changed from August 10 by the pre-
sent Legislature. Speaker Colfax and Governor
Bross were to address the people on the politics of
the day at the following 'places in Colorado :
Fairplay, Thursday, August 27 ; Oro City, Fri-
day, August 28 ; Granite, Saturday, August 29 ;
Canon City, Tuesday, September 1; Pueblo,
Wednesday, September 2 ; Colorado City, Thurs-
day, September 3 ; Denver, Monday, September 7.
General Grant remains at Galena, where the re-
port now is that he will stay for five or six weeks.
Seymour follows his example, being quietly settled
upon his dairy farm at Utica. Senator Fessenden
made a great speech at Portland, Maine, on the
31st August. He there came out strongly for the
Republican ticket, and made no uncertain sound
on the financial question. "The payment of inte-
rest," he said, " upon our bonds in coin was re-
solved upon, because it was evident that the price
of paper must fluctuate greatly during the war ;•
payment of interest in coin is plain proof of the
intention of the creators of the bonds to pay princi-
pal in coin. Nobody," he said, " ever dreamed that
the principal of this debt was to be paid in promises.
No court nor any living man, to my knowledge,
supposed so." The greater weight is given to these
words as Senator Fessenden was Secretary of the
Treasury when some of the bonds were issued, and
he remembered advising to use the word gold, so
that no doubts could hereafter arise ; but it was
not considered necessary by others; the language of
the law being such that everybody inferred from it
that the principal was to be paid in coin. lie thus
concluded his able speech Discharge at once
and for ever all idea of tampering with your obli-
gations. If anybody advises you to repudiate,
repudiate the repudiator." Henry W. Beecher, in
correcting a statement of his which had been gar-
bled in a Democratic paper of Ohio, wrote the
following endorsement to the Republican candi-
date :

Peekskill, August 13, 1868.
Dear Sir,—You ask me whether I wrote the following
sentence :

"The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in the closing sen-
tence of a letter to the editor of the Boston Daily Adver-
tiser, utters an honest sentiment in the following:—
"'There will be no third candidate between Grant and
Seymour. It will be a fair fight between rugged (Demo-
cratic) honesty and plausible craft. "—Coshocton Democrat.
I did not. The word (Democratic) was interpolated by
the editor of the paper from which it comes, on purpose to
deceive his readers. I regard Grant as an upright, honest
man, of good administrative skill—the very man to be Pre-
sident in times which require steadiness, clear sense, kind-
ness, and tried patriotism. I not only believe that he will
be President, but that his civil administration will be as
remarkable as his military career. Since all the men who
sought to destroy this Government are rallying around
Seymour, it is fit that all the men who stood up for the
Union should gather about Grant. It is an honour that
will not happen twice in a man's lifetime to have a chance
to vote for such a man as Grant. No young man can well
afford to th-ow away his chance. Even if done, it ought
to be in favour of some better man than he who, trough
all the years from 1860 to IE6B, studied how to help
Southern treason without incurring the risks and pains of
overt and courageous treasonable acts.—l am very truly
yours, IIENRY WARD BEECHER.

_ .
A Washington correspondent of a Democratic paper
has cheery news from Missouri, which he says is
sure to go for Seymour and Blair. That party has
nominated Gen. Jas. Shields, formerly United States
Senator from Illinois and Minnesota, for the district
now represented by the Republican Iran Horn. Re-
garding Alabama he calculates the entire vote at
180,000, of which his party will poll 75,000 whites
and 30,000 blacks, and the Radicals 10,000 whites
and 55,000 blacks; adding that the Honourable W.
B. Jones had declined to serve oa the Republican
ticket, and had taken to the " stump" for Seymour
and Blair. Of Pennsylvania a thoroughly posted
and well-informed friend told him that the Demo-
,orata were working like beayera aad were lansine

of success, while the Radicals of Philadelphia were
split up by local issues, and throughout the State a
war rages between the Curtin-Kelly-Forney fac-
tion and that of Cameron. A strong controversy
has been carried on touching the Generals, and
some very bitter things have been said, but the New
York Citizen gives this as the probable way in which
they will divide : -

The New York Democratic Convention, assem-
bled Sept. 2, completing its work next day as follows :
—For Canal Commissioner, Oliver Bascom of
Washington county ; for Inspector of State Prisons,
David B. M'Neil of Cayugy ; for Judge of the
Court of Appeals, E. 0. Perrin of Queens. Among
the names on the ticket for Presidential electors
are Gen. H. W. Slocum, Justice Dowling, Oswald
Ottenberger, Emanuel B. Hart, Charles F. Loew,
and William G. Fargo. The resolutions, which
were adopted with cheers, reaffirm the principles of
the National Democratic platform ; demand the
immediate restoration of all the States to their rights
in the Union, amnesty for all past political offences,
and that the elective franchise be regulated in all
the States by the people thereof, without the inter-
ference of the general Government ; the pay-
ment of all Government liabilities in gold only when
gold is nominated in the bond and in lawful currency
of the country, when coin is not specified ; equal
taxation of every species of property, including
Government Bonds. They reaffirm the principle of
one currency for Government and one currency for
office-holders, pensioners, soldiers, and bondholders ;
favour for the reform of abuses in the Administra-
tion ; the reduction of the standing army and navy;
the abolishing of the Freedmen's Bureau and all
political instrumentalities designed to secure sec-
tional supremacy ; favour equal rights and protec-
tion for naturalized and native-born citizens ; en-
courage people struggling for national integrity
and constitutional liberty ; thank the soldiers and
sailors who imperilled their lives in the defence of
the Republic ; assert that the nation is under deep
and lasting obligation to President Johnson, who,
deserted by his party, has respected his oath to
maintain the Constitution, and to Chief Justice
Cha.e, who, in the Impeachment Trial, proved
faithful to his high trust; endorse and eulogize
Seymour and Blair, and lay down a line of policy
in regard to canals and other property of the State,
and in regard to the excise laws and other local
matters.

The Massachusetts Democratic State Convention
assembled also on the 2d, when Colonel Greene's
motion was carried, that the nominees of 1867 for
State officers be re-nominated by acclamation, as
follows :—For Governor, John Quincy Adams ;
for Lieutenant-Governor, George M. Stearns ; Sec-
retary of State, Charles Brimbleton ; Treasurer,
Henry Arnold ; Auditor, Arthur F. Devereux ;
Attorney-General, William C. Endicott. The fol-
lowing were among the principal resolutions :
" Resolved,—That while we deprecate all attempts
to detract from the military fame or blacken the
private character of Gen. Grant, we feel that when
arms exert an undue and abnormal power in a free
Government in a time of peace, and its constitutional
functions are greatly deranged and partially sus-
pended by partisan violence, a people jealous of their
liberties should not lift higher yet the hand which
holds the sword. The nation needs now not the
successful soldier, skilled only in the arts of war
and prone to rule by the swift methods of the
camp, but the wise and thoughtful statesman,
trained in the patent process of conciliation and
kindness, and relying alone upon the united and
firm sway of law and justice.
" Resolved,—That while we recognize the neces-
sity of a tax on imports, we renew our adhesion to
the doctrine of a tariff solely for revenue."
" Resolved,—That gold and silver coin is the
only constitutional Legal-Tender, and while we
would have but one currency for all, the Democracy
of Massachusetts, now as in the past, are true to
their old faith in hard money, and demand that it
be restored to the people at the earliest moment
consistent with the interests of the business and
labour of the country."
It is a singular fact that John Quincy Adams
never showed on the occasion, and was shouted for
in vain.

The Maryland Democrats, in Convention, also
on the 2d instant, nominated for electors at large
Judge Carmichael, of Queen Anne county, and
John Thomson Mason, of Anne Arundel county ;
and by districts, in their numerizal order, Albert
Constable, Walter T. Allengier, H. C. Dalton,
Charles G. Roberts, and George Peters.
