The views Of the secessonisss here ap'
pear to be moderating somewhat. While
no direct confession is made, still they
are evidently getting ready to let down
easily, a little. The 6rmness and
soolness Of nearly all tie Republicaus,and
tho manly stand Of many Northern Dem
ocrats in favor Of maintaining the integ
rily and honor Of the Government, is
having wholesome effect. Still more OF
the same sort is produced by the post
ponement Of actual collision. Altogether
the Rrs eating cause has cooled OF some
what.
shorman's speech is still the theme o.
universal talk. His selection as Secreta
~ Of Troas'y, would strengthen Lincoln''
Cabinet materially, 1t Is recommended
by some that should Chase accept thu
Secretaryship, Sherman should be Sena

of the Republicans here, for Senator o
