"One Of the gentlemen at my room had left
Washington only few hours previous. He

He reported the chief calm and collected
not at oil nervous about the Presidential
nomination. He (Douglas) said that he was
not at all anxious to be nominated at Charles

Democrat stands the remotest chance OF be-
ing elected, il nominated. He does not re-
gard his own chances OF election - BY any
means dattering. The evident bitter, per-
sonal, malignant hatred Of the President,
who has said, en- several occasions, that be
