Foreign News.

1t is becoming daily more doubtful wheth-
er the European Congress will assemble.
The Prussian ministerial organ gives up all
hopes of the restoration Of the Grand Duke
of Italy, and says annexation to Sardinia is
the next best thing. t
Genoa letters speak of the possibility of
the resumption Of hostiliies in Italy. 1t
was believed that the Papal troops, support
ed by the Austrians would enter the Lega
tions, in which case Sardinia would send a
force to aid the Roman insurgents.
The appointment Of Marshal Mcmahon to
the command of the army in Italy, number
ing fifty thousand, was regarded as warlike
indication.

The Republicans at their convention in Chi
cago on last Friday nominated as their candi-
date for the Presidency, Abrsham Lincoln, o
Illinois, and for Vice President, Hannibal Ham
lin, ofMaine. As Mr.. Lincoln is comparatively
unknown, we copy the following biography of
him from the Chicago Demo,rat, a paper that
advocated his nomination, and the leading Re.
publican paper Of Illnos:-
He was born in Hardin county, KY, Febru-
ary 1909; received limited education; adopted
The profession Of the law; was a captain OF vol
unteers, in the Black Hawk war; at a one time
postmaster of small village; four times elect.
ed to the Illinois Legislature; and a representa-
tive in Congress, from Illinois, from 1847 to
1S49. He was the opposition candidate for the
United States Senate when Stephen A. Doug
las vas elected to that body.
Mr.. Hamln is at preseat U. S. Senator from
he State Of Maine. In point of intellect and
capacity he is far superior to MIR. Lincoln, al
though he is not troubled with very much o
either of those important essentials in cnndi
dates for President and Vice President.
| We give Il e proceedings Of the Convention
az copied from the exclusive dispatches of the
Cincinnati Commercial, the leading and ables
republican organ in the west.
The candidates suit us very we'll five hat
had the naming of them, they would have beer
cur first choice. Mr.. Lincoln was badly beat
en- two years ago when he was foolish enough
to think he was capable Of being U. s. Senator
and as his vanity is still increasing, tho bea
he received in 1858 will be no comparison t,
the one he will receive in 1860

CHICAGO. Thursday Evening, May II
There was music by the full band in the Con
vention to day. A splendid fight was got up
on the Platform. Giddings wanted the initial
words of the Declaration Of Independence to be
prefxed to the first resolution, and moved an
amendment to that effect, to the Platform as
reported by the Committee. The Convention
voted Giddings down. because the Declaration
Of Independence was already endorsed in the
second resolution.
Giddlngs retired from the Convention in sor-
row and anger. Howadji Curtis, ofNew York
moved to add Gidding's extract from the Dec
laration as an amendment to the second clause
and his motion prevailed, thus mitigating the
asperties of the rrepressibles, and restoring
harmony.

slavery in the Territories. It will be observed
that the duty Of Congress to intervene ageins

is not asseted; such affirmation is signally omit

lion Of volunteers from tine party.
