We have no idea that our suggestions
will influence the President in selecting
q successor to Chief Justice fancy. a
Chicago contemporary has named the
Hon. S. P. Chaee for the high position.
While we admire Mr.. Chase, the APP
pointment of no man in the nation
would give us so much satisfaction as
that of CHARLES SUMNER. Not on ac-
count OF his political opinions, nor of
great sympathy for humanity He
would prove a fit follower OF Marshall
and Jay. Occupying the position OF the
most learned jurist of our times, the ac-
cession of Mr.. Sumner to the Supreme
Bench, would be honorable to the ma
ton and reflect greater lustre upon
American Jurisprudence. The man
who with no title of honor or nobility
could be invited to sit upon the bench
of the highest judicial tribunals of Eng
land and France, in consideration of his
legal lore and classical attainments,
would reflect no dishonor upon the
the highest tribunal of our own country.
We hazard nothing in saying that
Charles Sumner is the peer OF any
!. American lawyer, past or present.
Were we to select Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court, we should chose
Charles Sumner, above and before al

In recent issue we insisted that as
the Chicago Convention declared this
war failure on the part of the Union,
the logical conclusion of that proposition
was that the rebellion is success.
The London Times, the English organ
of American rebels and friend of
peace, continues sanguine as to the Chi
cago movement leading to peace between
the North and South. In the number
received by the last steamer, the Times
says:
1--WE trust the public will admit that they
have not been misguided by our comments on
this obstinate contest The great fact which we
asserted from the first is now placed beyond the
reach of all controversy. We said the North
could never subdue the South, and the North
has now proclaimed the same conclusions"
The Democratic party of the North
has proclaimed that the North could
never subdue the South. Do you belong
to that party and claim to be loyal
man? Are you ready to admit the
North to contain race of towards?
