w WASHINGTON, July rs, 1866.
Some Of the appointments Of delegates to the
national Union convention cause the Presidents
friends toInake WY faces But I suppose they
win have 70 take things as they find them. 1t Is
very difficult if not impossible, to manipulate a
big affair, like one could a vestry meeting. It is
clear the administration desired such compost
ionof the convention as would give the radicals
The minimum amount Of capital on account Of the
personnel Of the convention.
The radicals make regular business of crying
out revolution against the President. The
last instance Is the case Of Maryland The pros
peet of the regeneration Of that State is brilliant
The test oath administered to voters it is thought

break the force Of their expected fan there, and
20 add to the flames of dscord, the cry IL raised
shat the President will sustain his friends in vio-
lence at the Maryland polls.
The radicals pretend to be reioiced at the adj
+ mission Of Tennessee. The conservatives are re-
joieea at this event. al parties therefore unite ia
The expression Of pleasure. The Presidents friends
think that il is point gained to have the Tennes-
zee delegation il their seats. II is breaking the
ice, and according to the French proverb, it is
the first step that costs. There is very little
doubt but that the radical leaders would have been
well pleased at a veto of the Tennessee resolution
of Naillissien- Rut The President had no idea Of
setting the chance slip of getting Tennessee in,
though the circumstances under which itwas done
were quite distastefuI.
The impression in well informed circles here Is
that there Is great danger Of an extension Of the
g war in Europe. IL is thought France and Russia
cannot consent to PRusaid3s strengthening herself
too much at the expense Of Austria. Prussia Is
bent on establishing her supremacy in Germany
