OVERLAND DISPATCHES
DATES TO THE 2STM,
President johnson md the Adop-
ton OF the constitutional Amend

posed by Congress. The Herald says, in
that way Johnson will check-mate the
Radicals O
Raymond. Henry J..
Raymond publishes a long communica-
ton in response to a request made by sew
eral persons, that he would become a
candidate for Congress. He reviews his
course during the past ten years, and de-
plores the breach between the Executive
and Congress, which he declares might
have been easily prevented by concessions
on both sides. He says he has nothing
In common with the Democratic party,
and concludes in these words:
"My past position does not command
the appreciation Of a large body among
those who originally gave me their votes;
and apart from such approval, so far as it
can be had consistently with proper indie
pendence Of personal opinion, q seat in
Congress ceases to have for me any attrac-
ton, or to offer any opportunity for useful
public service; and l shall best consult
my own self-respect, as we'll as the senti-
ment of my constituents and the interests
of the Union cause, by Withdrawing my
name from the canvass altogether"
Pressure on the P~rcsident.
The President continues under the pres
sure Of a multitude of applications from
all quarters, to make appointments and
removals, daily. Many of these have not
yet been published-there being no dis
position to make them public at present.
Spirit Of the N. Y. Press.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2sth.-Following are
leaders from the New York papers of
Wednesday, 26th. The Times says:
ave have urged upon the Country the
adoption Of the Constitutional Amend
ment, because we believe it to be just, and
one that ought to be made. We support
ed it long before the Tribune did, and we
shall continue to urge its adoption without
reference TO the action of Congress in re-
gard to the Southern States. But we
should like to know that its ratification
by the South would be received in a
friendly spirit by Congress, and that it
would do something to allay the bitterness
| Of political feeling which now seems to
pervade the country. The Tribune can
do a great deal toward satisfying the pub
| lie anxiety on this subject"

The Erening Post says:
"It is now evident, that the people Of
the Northern States mean to insist upon
the adoption of the Amendment proposed
by Congress. 1t is useless to discuss the
causes which have brought them totthis
conclusion. The fact is undeniable; and
it is the part Of practical craftsmanship
everywhere, in all parts Of the country, to
be guided by it. The President would
do wisely TO use his influence with the
leaders Of public opinion in the Southern

minds, and to counsel them to wise and
statesmanlike action. The shortest way
to peaceful reorganization now, is to adopt
