WasHrGr0N, d G., April 10, 1860
The remark Of Senator sImML today to the ef-
feet. that il case Of the nomination Of Senator
DOUGLAS for the Presidency, by the Charleston
Convention, six Southern States were already
pledged to withdraw and bolt the ticket excites un-
usual comment Those who oppose Mr.. DoUeLAs
are now emphatic in their statements concerning his
defeat, while those who have been in pivotal posi-
ton, expressing no preferences and ready to turn
either way, for against him. come out boldly and
say that ne is BY no means our strongest man, and
that if nominated we shall surely lose the election.
Republicans here often remark that, in their opin-
ion, the nominationof DoUGLAs viii secure the nom
hatiOn Of SEWARD BY the Chicago Convention, and
for this reasOn-they know that Mr.. DOUGLAS, in re-
atty, possesses no strength in the free States, not
held IN the same ratio by any other prominent
member in the Democratic party, and that his
strength at the South is infinitely less His nOmina-
ton would, CT course, embolden the Republicans to
bring forward their ablest and the one who Is
everywhere regarded as the truest representative
Of their political creed.
Senator JOHNSON to-day, in reply to Senator Ma
son on the Homestead BILL denied that it was party
measure and showed from abundant proof that the
Homestead bill has been sustained and advocated by
majority Of the ablest statesmen, North and South.
1t is question rising above, or one entirely uncon-
nected with that Of slavery 1t is one directly and
Immediately affecting the people.
The friends Of Mr.. SEWARD are every day growing
more desperate. His chances for the nomination
are evidently rapidly declining. while those of ST.
MON CAMERON are growing better. 1t is broadly
limited by many Of Mr.. SEwARDs friends that in case
he is not nominated, he will give the cold shoulder
to the Republican cause. ARGYLE.

A correspondent of the Milwaukee Nars who
was one Of an excursion party TO the South in
letter giving an account of their reception at Jack

similar purport made in the Louisville Delocyf

error Such a report has been ndustrousl, cirrr-
lated in the political circles at Washington This
has been done IN many instances we have no dopb+
for the express purpose of diminishing the chances
Of Gov. JOHNSON for success. The currency Of This
report has occasioned a good deal of feeling and
comment in this State. and among the Tennessee De
mocracv at Washington. We cannot believe there
is q particle of truth in the rumor. From what We
know of the gentlemen of the Tennessee Delegation
and from what we have heard ofani from them, we
are satisfied that they viii give Gov JoINsoN a cor
dial support only long they believe he has
any prospects of success, butI.ntl they can contr
butte l1h certainly TO the nomination Of some accept
able man. The changing of the vote from one to
another of the aspirants would certainly have
tendency to lessen the influence of the State. The
Delegation IN act with sufficient discretion to- at
least cast their vote for their man until they
can determine the contest by giving some one else
If their vote is to be thrown away better to throw
it away on the choice of State than on any one
else 1t Is not for US to lecture delegates as to
the duties they have 20 perform in their representa-
tive capacity. We have every confidence that they
will discharge those duties faithfully and satsfac
torily.

Gov. Johnson.

Capt j. c. VAUGHN of Monroe County one Of the
most influential of the East Tennessee Democracy, in
a recent letter to the Cleveland Banner says:
The gallant and gifted son Of Tennessee, Gov,
Andrew Johnson will be the nominee of the Charles
ten Convention. from all the information that can
BIS gained and If ne Is the constitutional party will
again triumph over all opposition. johnson Is the
strongest man in the United States among the masses
and voters. He is a sound, National, man and can
carry the entire Slave States and more Northern
aud Western States than any man living South of
Mason and DiXOns line.
have Travelled some through the north and west.
and johnson is more tOlked of than any man we
have Let us nominate him and success is certain
He is the father of the Homestead law that popular
measure which is being denounced by some of the
Democratic papers in Tennessee, espepecially the
Knoxville Register, which is young paper IN the
cause lust started at that place. know nothing of
its editor he may be very much Of gentleman, but
he Is pursuing very poor course to make himself
popular with the Democracy Of Tennessee. We
have no objection his advocating the claims Of his
friend Hunter who is good man. but his thrusts
and cuts at Gov. johnson are uncalled for and out
ofplace. The voters OfEast Tennessee know John
son and the course of the Register will read itself
out of the Democratic party and into the arms OF
the opposition in Tennessee if he persists IN It.

GREELEY CALCULATES THE CHANCEs.-HORACE GREE
LEY is practical man as well as philosopher. He
is calculating very closely the Republican chances
Do win the Presidency Here is his calculation;
I. We shall with determined and united effort
carry all the States which Fremont did, thus giving
us ia electoral votes to start with.
, We shall not get an electoral vote south Of Ma
son and DiXons line.
3. We shall not carry either California or Oregon.
They must be abandoned to the Democrats who
start with I27 electoral votes.
4. Kansas will not be admitted as a State by the
present Congress
.. All the chances we have of electng President
will be before the people. If the election Is thrown
into the House of Representatives, we cannot pos
Sblv expect more than fifteen States and seventeen
wall be necessary.
The whole number Of electoral votes will be 303.
Necessary 10 choice, lj2 In 1886 we carried
neither Pennsylvania New Jersey. Indiana, Illinois,
or Minnesota. With New Jersey, a. Pennsylvania,
N-'l and Minnesota. a. we shall have the required
number and not one ID spare. If We carry New
Jersey. o. Indiana. ll5) Illinois, (li,) and Mime
Sg'' ID they Will give 2i9 only and we lose the
C'etNgn by three votes. If Kansas is admitted
men the whole number viii be 500; necessary 20 a
Nnolte lJ4; and lwltiout Pennsylvania we lose the
Sluoh by mo votes. II is quite evident therefore
mat me great battle-ground will be New Jersey
