hnd many excellent Republicans exercised in

lie is sound and true, and saeacious. Thirty years
of public life and remarkable tellhis story.
He vas right on KaDsss and the Missouri Compro
mice right on LecomPtOn. His Senatorial associates
failed when the emergency came. John Bell did
not. Not a shadow Tests on his fame Or hs
name. He never shifked q responsibility
never fed, and ntyer nmched before storm. He
has a weakness NJ q candidate. John Bells wife
owns higgers. But it is alleged lie can carry Ten

Missouri, or Helper. North Carolioa.
Another thing is said, namely, that there is
great row brewing at Chicago. Eager men wild

tiles, but antag9nistic IDEAS II will be urged that
TIE extreme Free-Soil element Of tbe Repu6l ,an
party uust have representative man, or that elc-
ment will bolt; on the other hand, that unless q
very moderate man s taken, the more conservative
portion OF the Pennsylvania and New jersey Oppo-
sltioD, as well as The class elsewhere, will bolt
for that reason. TIE Convention is thus held TO
be threatened by the rocks OF Scylla on one side
and the waters of Chary bJis on the otner These

be greatly intensified by The heats and pertinacity Of
rival interests that will 10 10 ,be Convention, ea5h
with determination TO succeed, and determined
to be uneppeafaby disappointed il they do not.
It il well to understand t1is in ad lance. There
seems to be no other way to avert the untoward
consequences anticipated. IL any men are 20
bound up in the success of their candidates or their
peculiar ideas that they cannot yield caaerfal &C.
quiescepce in the result Of the Convention, what
ever that may be, they had better stay away.
The Republican party is o first rate party, and
immensely powerful. Bot il should pever be for-
gotten that it is just strong enough to get soaadly
tra he'd in certain indispensable localities if it fails
to act cautiously and wisely. This may not be
consideration of importance with some ardent
minda who love the probationary state and haze

From q Special Correspondent.

If some newspaper, through slip OF pen or type,
were to say that certain members OF the House Of
Representatives were net smplstons, we presume
those certain members, at the earliest practicable
moment, would be fools enough torse, in the House,
to personal explanations" and prove that the
newspaper was mistaken.
Your correspondent, in THE TRIBUNE Of yes
terdoy through slip Of pen or type, is made to say
that Mr.. John b. Clark of Missouri asked to BIO
placed on the Territorial Committee, of which Mr..
Grow is Chairman; whereas what he meant to say
and did say, was-and it was The sole point Of bis
reference to Clark-that Clark now ssrred upon
Committee whose Chairman was one OF the two
men whom bis Helper resolution condemned as unit

To-day, Clark rose in the House to "perst nal
explanation" and got Mr.. Pennington TO say that
lie did not put Clark upon the COMMITTEES at his
(Cark's) request
Now, your correspondent ia not 80 demented as
TO have said that Mr.. Pennington did anything OIL
