gLieut. Arthur L. Chase, q cousin
of Secretary Chase, died in Washington
on the morning of the Sth inst, in the
Armory Square Hospital, and after his
death memorandum was found in one
of his pockets, in his own handwriting,
which states that he had been wounded,
disabled, and had fallen on the battle
field, and that while in his helpless state
he was approached by four rebel soldiers,
who shot him through the neck, chest
and thigh, placing the muzzle of their
guns so near him that his clothing and
flesh were burned by their discharge,
and are now the witnesses of the truth
of this memorandum, which he had the
strength to make after suffering from
the atrociouS act.

Cor. FRANK A. HAsKRLL.-The an
nouncement of the death of Col. Frank
A. Haskell of the seth Wisconsin regi-
ment, was contained in war bulletin OF
Secretary Stanton, some days ago. Col.
Haskell was native of Vermont, but a
resident of Madison, Wisconsin, at the
outbreak OF the rebellion. He entered
the service as Adjutant of the 9th Wis
consin, and by his faithfulness, profcien-
cy and gallantry won the high regard Of
Gen. Gibbons, on whose staff he served
for long time, and of Gen. Hancock, at
whose solicitation Col. Haskell was
granted permission to raise new regi-
ment in Wisconsin, of which he took
command. 1t was but few weeks be-
fore he fell in a fight near Richmond,
that his regiment left Wisconsin and
joined Hancock's corps.
Col Haskell was graduate of Dart
mouth College, and was about thirty
years of age. He had many friends in
Vermont, who deeply mourn his loss.
The Madison Wis State Journal says
of him:
CATER graduating at Dartmouth Col
lege, ne came west, studied law and en-
tered on the practice Of his profession
here. A gentleman of fine literary taste
truthful, brave, modest, the soul Of hon
| or, social and genial among his init,
mates, he has displayed since his en-
trance into the service qualities that
promised him brilliant future if his
| life had been spared"

PoLIrIcAL.-A Washington dispatch
states that Fernando Wood of New York,
Samuel 8. Cox of Ohio, and Senator
Richardson of Illinois, unite In saying
that the Chicago convention will not be
postponed. 1t seems to be generally
understood that Gen. Grant will not
have any strength in the convention as
candidate for the presidency, unless ne
should take Richmond before the 4th OF
July. Gen. McClellan's chances are still
considered good.
In regard to the postponement, about
which the democrats are in great
perplexity and perturbation, the Boston
Post comes to the definite ~ conclusion
that the 4th of July is a good time, but
that September might answer If 1t could
be shown to be more expedient. The
New York Daily News recommends a
very earnestly, IN order
to "watch their (the Union men's) ma
| nnuyres, search for their strong points
| and their weak points, and profit as well
by their errors as by q knowledge OF
their advantages" The New York Ex-
press learns that a majority of the Dem
ocratic members of Congress favor the
postponement to period near the cleo
| ton. The Journal of Commerce, on the
other hand says:
| The proposal to postpone the con
vention has caught the minds OF FEW
editors, chiefly of papers belonging to
what is called the peace democracy. Ii
will not do. A nomination is now abso
lutely needed Cohesion is wanted more
than anything Union of action is re
ouired The delay of NOMINATION
would weaken the opposition day by day
and inure to the benefit of the republi
cans, who would be securing the doubt
fsl, hesitating, faint hearted men con
stantly, as the summer progresses"
A large and enthusiastic Lincoln rati
fication meeting was held at Indianapo
lis last Saturday evening. Governor
Morton, who was one of the speakers
referring TO Fremonts letter accepting thu
nomination of the Cleveland convention
said the silence of Fremont in regard t(
the prosecution of the war and the sup
preston of the rebellion gave rise to The
most painful apprehension of his tru'
position. Omitting one or two senten
ces, there is nothing in it that might no
