q sUPREIR JUDeRsHIP.
Amongthe rdmors concerning the Judge
ship made vacant by the demise of the great
MCLEAS, is one to the sHsctfkst Il viii be
rendered to Secretary CHASE. This pro-
gramme c~ontemplates the promotion OF SINoN
CAMERON to the Treasury, and the appoint
ment Of Hon. BoB ScHENcK of Ohio to the
War Department REN WApE j. also men
toned in connection with the latter place.
This whole programme, however, probably
exists more in the breach tHaa IN the 6bset-
vance; and is given for exactly what it IS
worth. Another rumor assigns the vacant

SEVEN GOVERNORS.
There were no less than seven Governors
of Northern States in town yesterday; in
Guiding Washburne Of Main, Curtin of Penn
s~ylvania, Dennison Of Ohio, Morton ofIndiana,
and thrssDthaa. What thsEfE Business was
is conjectural; but it is believed to have had
reference to the " State of the Country"
b, s.THR VIRGINIA GONnuTTER. m
q The Committee Of three from the EirgiRia
Secession Convention is expected here to-day.
Their visit bids fair to eOmplicate matter
S16ssdiAgly andnore than ever endanger the
peace of the country. The preservation of
peaceable relations with the Confederate
States, depends wholly upon the action Ofthe
Montgomery Cabal; of one thing, the country
may rest entirely assured and that is, that
the property of the government will be
defended at all hazards. The larceny BUSH
ness in which JsG. lDEvis's brigsnds have
been so largely engaged lately, is about being
brought to an end. sAa oAth4a e9i

lNoS the least Interesting o citizens Of
Washington are the fears entertained of IA
attack by the Virginia traitors upon the city.
Ben. Mccullough has been here within a day

Koa win be panied and frightened 10 learn
that JEFF. Daviss Commissioners, who have
been here for som weeks, have become in
digndhtR at fhe Administration, and threaten
direful things. Mr.. Seward, yesterday, in-
formed them that he could hold no official
intercourse with them which accounts for
their indignation and bluster.A They expect

AAAAIo SIGNIFICANT FACT.
zIteannot have escaped fhs1 zotios q ths
the people Of the North that while the Ad.
ministradon Of Mr.. Lincoln has been called
upon to initiate no hostile measures, the same
class of men have no condemnation for the
murdsrous preparations Of Jsa. Davis. Z The
concentration of troops, and the erection Of
offensive batteries have beenrsgArdsd Al -nO
crime, while the announced intention of the
Federal Government to sustain its authority
and protect its possessions, has been denounc-

the least prominent among those engaged in
this nefarious business, has been Judge Doug

JUDGE DOUGLAS IN TRAVAIL AGAIN.
Mr., Douglas, of Illinois, is againin travail.
He has been reading in some Of the neWspa-
pers about the way in which the customs are
collected in the German States, BY means OF
I uniform rates between them, and through
officers representing the States collectively.
Douglas has seized upon this idea, and is
now engagedlin psrfecting II, With s-tiew to
introduce it amOng the States Of this Cont
nent. The rates of customs to be uniform
everywhere in Americaan d all the Govern
ments on the Dominant 10 be partners in this
grand scheme, are notions about IS practical
as Judge Douglas IS capable Of e~oneeiving.
Prodigious statesman is that man Douglasl
