Chase versus Lincoln.

The Presidential contest is waxing
warm. and Mr.. Lincoln will not have mat
tiers all his own way. 1t is the right OF
every Republican to advocate the claims
of his favorite candidate until the nomi-
nation is made, and all attempts to fore
stall public opinion must fail
Secretary Chase has been the sheet
anchor of the Administration, that at
tached it to the principles upon which it
was elected. His counsels saved the
Administration more than once from
falling into the hands OF the ultra con
scrvatives, and there are vast numbers of
men, particularly the old anti slavery
men, who prefer him to Mr.. Lincoln in
the coming contest.
Mr.. Lincoln has been excused for the
committal of blunders which would have
sunk any other man, because the people
recognized his mental weakness, and the
substitution of greater man will result
to the advantage of the Republic.
Washington Correspondent Of the Randolph County
Journal.
We had been previously admonished
from private sources, that Geo. W. JUL
an, the member Of Congress from this
District, had pledged Indiana delegates
to the next National Convention, to the
support Of Mr.. CHASE as the successor
to Mr.. LINCOLN.
The foregoing extract from the cor
respondent of the journal" which none
will fail to recognize as being from the
pen of Mr.. Julian, opens the Ball and
will, we think, open the. eyes of the 10y

the extract given above, is worthy Of the
bitterest copperhead in the land, and

DESERVED NoTICE.-We find the fol
of the True fJulian) Republican, towards
Gen'l MEREDITH, in the CaB.5riage Jour
nal of the 5th
This INSCRIPTIONS paper is down on
General Meredith, in a manner not at all
consistent with decency or common hon
esty. II seems to be opposed to the an
nouncement of the General name a. q
candidate for Congress. In this the
Republican sees.'a hand writing on the
wall" 1t learns that the. General IS in
excellent health, and is traversing the
County, with al his old activity, ardor
and impetuosity in the business of elect
ioneering and office seeking In al this
we see cold and malignant attack upon
a wounded and suffering soldier. The
most eminent physicians of Washington,
Cincinnati and Cambridge City, have de-
clared that the Generals wounds render
him incapable for field service, and that
quietudc is essential to his recovery. He
has frequent attacks of hemorrIiage of the
lungs, occasioned by his wound in the
side. and other causes, and the wound he
received in the head by shell. has
materially deranged his nervous system.
lie has been ut home nearly four months,
in that time he has visited one or two
families by invitation. He went to In
dianaplis to meet the glorious Nineteenth
of his Iron Brigade" and since that time
he has been at home waiting upon and bu-
rying his soldier son, 1t. Samuel H. Mere
dith, who died on the 22d Of last month
Since that he has been most of the time
confined to his room with fever and ex-
haustion from splitting quantities ofblood
Now is the house of General Meredith
one of deep mourning. Under these
circumstances the wretch who can malion
the brave soldier must be destitute alike
Of patriotism and humanity, and deserves
the castigation which an indignant public
can inHict for wrongs done one who has
and is suffering for his country.
The General however, is getting bet
ter, and we hope he may be able in a few
days to be on our streets again

Julian's Likes and Disiikes.

The last True Julian Republicans gets it's
back up hugely over the historical sketch
of Gen. Meredith published by us. The
Republicans says, The thing is wretched
in STYLE and recklessly false in statement
and gives the following extract rs evil
dence:
1.-THE personal appearance of General
Meredith tells its own story. That tall.
commanding body, six feet, six inches in
height those strong marked features;
those clear, penetrating, yet amiahle ewes
that resolute mouth, and affable but self
reliant and independent bearing denote
exactly the sort of soul which animates
them. No one can look on Gen'l Mere
dith and read the word faH America is
written upon him. He is a specimen.
fit representative of the genius of our
country"
Now we submit that the style of this
extract is far above any thing that has
ever emanated from the Republican and
instead of being '.recklessly FALSE its
truth is acknowledged by all who know
Gen. Meredith
But there is smother point in this case
which Indicates that chap In a glass
house should not commence a stonino

follows:
Hon. G.. W. Julian procured the pub

that it was the first and last Document.

The reader will bear in mind that this

colorings furnished by the Hon NJ c.
We copy from the Physiological Jour

large brain and an cNcitable. nervous tenn

forward to consequences and compre-
bend remote relations"
1t was the ..PscTL2t" alone that show
