Arrest OF the VIce-President OF the North
River Bank of HObOken.

G. W. Chadwick, Vice. President of the
North River Bank of Hoboken, was arraigned
before Judge Brady, in the Common Pleas,
to-day, on the complaint of Horace Partridge;
The prosecutor sets forth that about the end
of May, 1866, stranger called at the plaintiffs
store for the, purpose OF buying some gold
watches valued at one thousand dollars; that
in payment therefor complainant was rendered
a draft on the North River Bank of Hoboken.
signed by T. Williams, and countersigned by
G. w. Chadwick, Vice-President of the bank.
Before delivering the watches and accepting
the draft, the complainant sent George Fritz to
Chadwick to learn whether the said draft was
good, and whether the North River Bank of
Hoboken would be responsible for its payment
Chadwick represented to Fritz that the draft
was good, and would be paid at maturity, it
being drawn against deposits in said bank :
Believing these representations, Partridge de-
iyered the watches, and accepted the draft in
payment. Al the maturity of the paper it was
presented to the bank, but no part OF it was
paid. The complainant therefore charges that
Chadwick was in colluson with the person who
presented the draft. Partridge says that the
suit is brought for the purpose of recovering the
damages sustained by him by reason OF sale

SOUTHERN ~UNION" CONVENTION.

A call has been issued, by the northern
radicals, at Washington, for a convention, at
Philadelphia, on the Sd of September next.to
devise means for keeping the south out of the
Union. The append to it the name of poor
drunken Jack Hamilton, of Tsxaa, and few
other tools of Thad. Stevens, Sumner Go.
The New York Times Il republican paper
says:
A proper estimate may be formed of the
character and weight to be attached to the
call of convention of southern radicals, or
so-cailsd union men Of the south, when the
fact is known that the whole thing is gotten
I'D by Gov. Hamilton under the immediate
direction Of the extreme radicals OF the north.
As disafscted and disappointed or offended
southsrnsrs happen along, the names are So
Looted to the call for a convention. There Is
no pretense that these signers are to be Sc
lected by the action of the people in the south
in their local conventions or by other popular
expressions of the voice Of the southern peo-
pie as it 10 well known that any attempt to &c
up local convention for such purpose in the
south would prove an utter failure in Its
results, and that not oorporaPs guard of
| radicals could be got together in any one OF
the gulf states.

Congressional Convention.

Our friend Danforth, of the Rock Island
Ar0us, suggests that the democratic congress
sional convention be held at Oquawka, and
that we be empowered to fix the time and call
the invention, the chairman OF the commit
tee, MIR. Brooks, having moved TO Hannibal,
Mo.
We are perfectly willing 10 abide the de-
cisIon Of the Majority of the committee, but
we are satisfied that Monmouth is the most
central and convenient part of the district
and is easy of access by rail. We have good
hotel accomm odations and good halls, and the
southern counties can reach here quicker by
rail than they can Oquswka by water. We
hope our friend of the Argus will sgive il"
and let the convention be held in Monmouth,
where we can beard the old lion in his den, F"
and carry the war into the heart of Africa."
The democracy of Monmouth will make all
the necessary arrangements tor the comfort
and convenience of the delegates. And they
need not necessarily be away from home
more than 4S hours. What say the commit
tee to holding the convention in Monmouth
Monmouth RerieW.
We did not mean to be understood tina,
Mr.. Swain should Il z the time and place, bu,
that be should correspond with the Other
members OF the committee and with the poo
pie of Adams and after having got opinions
as to tune and place, issue the call, being
governed by the majority. giving each coun
ty its groper voice on the committee.
As to place our people prefer Oquswks, bu
of course the majority must govern, and oul
people will oheerfully acquissce in that, at al
times.
