TIE Cincinnati Commercial expresses the
opinion that Seward will be the Chicago
nominee. 1t says:
The three strong candidates in the New
England States nre Seward, Chase and
Banks. Banks is not a possible candidate,
but he wishes to show his power, and is
anxious to cut Stewards jugu-
lar. After he is withdrawn Mt Chicago,
his influence will probably De thrown for
Chase, hut the chances are that on the
test ballots the greater portion of the New
England vote will be for Seward, who will
have New York of course. the votes
from Delaware. Maryland, Virginia and
Kentucky, will be for Cash. Clay first, and
Seward next. Minnesota has already de-
clared for Seward, which is an Indication
of the drift of matters in the Northwest,
though there is reason to believe that
Chase will receive considerable support
from that quarter. The indications are
that Kansas will be for Seward. Calfor-
MIA and Oregon will be for him. In Illi-
nois, after Abe. Lincoln, Chase will be the
man. In Pennsylvania, after Simon CAM
cron comes Seward. New Jersey will pro-
badly go the same way.
There is abundant evidence that the
"Bates movement" within the Republican
party, is dead, or thereabouts. There are
no indications that he will have material
strength from any quarter. He will have
the vote of Missouri, a few votes from In-
diana, and u few from Ohio; but it will
only be by long cypEering that his nomina-
ton at Chicago can be figured out The
fict cf his presentation, will, in all probo-
biIity, give some strength to Frank Blair,
for Vice President, and that will be the
end of it.

The Examiner, in a recent Issue, makes

Wing Convention, assembled in Richmond
AS an example,, we extract the following
.ruuisite passage, intended, no doubt, to
ezcite the public visibility. Speaking OF
the prominent members of that Gonyen-
ton, It erultiugly says: NEARLY all OF
them have stamped upon them that brand
of popular displeasure, an tex" something
or other"
ton. It suits eractly. 1t was an eztraor-
tlinary body of excellent meu-sound err
pouuders Of the ConstituuonEamen OF q.
nerieace and expanded views, assembled
for the express purpose of opposing the er-
cesses and e-travagances of ezecrable par

country from the extreme danger to which
thew have erposed it. And obi how they
did ercoriate themI Neither Black Repub-

These er-gentIemen were opponents of

nally failed. The power of the Democra-

evil still Exists, and 1t remnins for the

Address to the Pope.


~-F-N---~
We publish in another place the address
of the Catholics of Cincinnati to his Holt
ness the Pope, which is to be forwarded to
him accompanied by "substantial symPa-
thy" His Holiness is informed that the
Catholic people of Cincinnati have been
full of the deepest anxiety concerning him
"sincc the day when the Republic was
proclaimed in the Eternal City by the So
ciulistic Couspirators." He is further iu-
formed that the hearts of the Catholic
people OF Cincinnati followed him in his
retreat from the chair of the Apostle, and
'igrutefuliy admired the providence of God,
which, by means the most unexpected, re-
turned you in triumph to the VGtican."-
That is, the Catholic people of Cincinnati
were happy to sec the soldiers of the
Republic Of Rome driven from that
city by the armies OF France. They
gratefully admired the Providence of
God that crushed the aspirations of the
people of Italy to govern themselves
They rejoiced to see the Pope carried back
to his throne on foreign bayonets, over the
trampicd liberties of the people of Italy.
They are not content that the Pope should
rule in his spiritual Kingdom. They insist
that he must be a temporal prince and be
perplexed and harrassed endlessiy by be-
ing placed by outside power to rule over q
people who would prefer some other form
of government. The address eloquently
euEmerates the triumphs of PoPes over
the powers of this world, and predicts the
speedy victory OF the most Holy Ta'her
from the troubles that now surround him.
The Great Napoleon is pronounced a more
terrible antagonist "than the schcmer who
now plots your humiliation" 1t might,
however, be remembered with advantage
by our Catholic fellow-citizens, that the
Napoleon of to-day is in the habit of ac-
complishing his purposes, and thatall he
has to do in this case is to see that the
people of Central Italy have fair play.
