On the North side Of the river, IN

he had lost his registration certificate
applied 10 vote, and that one Of the

although his name was not on the

Shortly afterwards, a rhhc mar who
had lost his certificate, but whose

Of the Registrar not allowing him to

Chief Justice Chase.

A large amount Of trash ie aaoat-
"hood wood" we call it as the river rises
or falls-about Judge Chase. He is charg-
ed with seeking democratic support for
the presidency and with beng bribed in
various ways. The little note below, from
Republican editor of Ohio will indicate
how the Judge stands on the great ques-
ton. He cannot afford to lose his reputa-
ton as jurist to oblise such political
pettifossers as Butler, Bingham and Bout
we'll From the fastest evidence, it seems
that the most sensible senators were not
in "the ring" of conspiracy against the
Judicial and the Executive branches Of
the Government.
Mr.. w. n. Hudson, editor Of the
Czeapeland Leader, spent morning hour
with Mr.. Chase and thus speaks Of the
interview:
"The .alk with the Chief Justice was
mainly upon current political topics. It
was remarked that his name had been Of
late urged by Democrats in connection
with the Presidency, on which Mr.. Chase
said: Il wish that all men OF all parties
would leave my name alone in connection
with Presidential nomination. do not
seek the Presidency He went on to say
that, as Justice OF the Supreme Court Of
the United States, he had necessarily to
assume an obligation, recognized in his
oath, but anterior and superior to it, to do
impartial justice under the Constitution
and laws Of the United States. He could
not be party Judge, or allo~ himself to
be swayed by partisan feeling, without
violating that OATH And he regretted
that newspapers of b; tn parties had con-
nccted some Of his recent actions with
party or perverse feeling A few words on
personal topics closed the conversation"

II this 10 true, then We fear for
the peacs Of the State in Texas. In

tnry commission is an exercise of un.

Taught with the direst of civil dis

are hut the excesses of their many

served long enough among them, both
before and since the war to know
this people thoroughly, As soldier
he mus, respect their high personal
courage, even il ut times it has about
it the ensanguined dash Of the des.
perado, ard he must know, or ought
to know, that letting loose rowing
military commission with its abhor-
red parphernelia of despotism, among
such quick spirited asserters Of per-
sonal liberty, is tamperins with civil
war. We hope earnestly that he
will dismiss the evil, corrupt, aud
resklessly ambitious councillors that
urge to such desperate ventures
Their aims are wholly selfish and as
utterly regardless of the public veal
as can well be with men who are
identified neither by interests nor
sympathy with the people whom they
seek to rule or ruin. Let Gen. Rey.
nolds remember that should the
State be plunged into civil or servile
war, not the Ilamiltons, nor Peascs,
nor Caljwells, but he, and he alone,
will be held rcsponsible.-N .. PIC.
