Sumner Worried sbOaf the Hnreiia-
BIes-PendIefOn and EngIish-CoIfax
the SmiIer, aad wade the Swearer.
"Mack's' last has the following gossip:
The Honorable Charles Sumner is in a
condition Of mental worriment over state
ment originating in the Commercials Wash
ington correspondence, TO the effect that he
was seen and heard rushing up and down
Pennsylvania avenue inquiring for some
body who had 'inhuence" over Fowler, Of
Tennessee-such influence as would secure
that gentleman's vote for the conviction of
the President. / can substantiste the
statement by dozen witnesses i can prove
that he named six men whom he consid-
cred unreliable" and upon whom he
prayed for influence. Since he has made
so much fuss about it, permit me TO refresh
his memory with the names of the unre-
liable men. He mentioned them aloud in
a street car, to Mr.. Stokes, of Tennessee,
and was overheard by gentleman who is
my informant. The unreliables were :
Anthony, of Rhode Island Ferry, Of Con-
necticut; Fowler of Tennessee; Edmunds,
of Vermont; Patterson, of New Hamp-
shire and Sprague, of Rhode Island. In
the same conversation he denounced Chief
Justice Chase as one who had betrayed the
cause" He was overheard BY dozen
others beside my informant. If any of the
high court doubt the statement, let them
call Mr.. Stokes, of Tennessee, as a witness.
II can then be settled whether Mr.. Sumner
did or did not go all over the streets of
Washington to find ''infiuence" to bring 10
bear upon his doubtful associates. 1t
can also be made TO appear what "inan'
ences" have been brought to bear upon
other Senators to make them vote for
impeachment. The country ought to have
the facts. Witnesses will be found plenty
enough,

pENDLEroN's Prospects.

the factS. witnesses VIII be I0und plenty
enough.
PENDLEToN's PROSPECTS,.
Pendleton's prospects for the Democratic
nomination are improving every day.
There seems TO be very little doubt among
leading politicians here that he will be the
man. The West is for him with the exception
of some Missourians, who want Frank Blair,
and few others who think Gen. Hancock
would be the best selection. Blair has not
strength outside of Missouri, and as for
Hancock, it is the worst folly to talk Of
running him. Grant can't be beaten by a
military candidate, because if two military
candidates are in the field, the contest will
be one Of comparative records, and Grant
will certainly win. With such man as
Pendleton as the candidate the fight would
take quite another shape, and become one
OF principle backed by living issues which
must be ignored in contest between two
military officers, neither of whom are COM
mitted one way or the other on any politi-
cal question. Some talk of putting Blair
on the ticket for Vice President with Pen
dleton, but the Eastern politicians wonld
probably object on geographical grounds TO
such a combination. / think it extremely
probable that Governor English will be the
nominee of the New York Convention
for Vice President. He wants it-he is
wealthy and able TO contribute to the ex-
penses of the campaign if necessary, and
his personal popularity has been seen re-
Gently, in his election as Governor of Con-
necticut His record is unexceptionable
for patriotism. He supported the war from
first to last, and as a member of the House
voted for the abolition of slavery IN the
District of Columbia. .
THE RADICAL VICE PREsIDEECY.
Notwithstanding the almost certainty
that Ben. Wade will soon be master of the
White House, sturdy old Ben's chances for
the Vice Presidential nomination at Chi
cago are steadily diminishing. II is hard
10 say whose chances are increasing the
most. Mr.. Colfax has just closed a vigor-
oas campaign, conducted in the form Of
receptions. He has more ability TO shake
hands, and more statesmanship TO smile
and tell the ladies he hopes they are well,
| than any man in America. | told Senator
| Wilson long ago that if he wanted to beat
| the Hon. Schuyler at Chicago he must keep
! house and give receptions. But he didn't
! take my advice, and | fear he will be de-
feated. The Hon. Schuyler's brains all
run into smiles and dhand-shakings-whi
are the most dangerous rivals a political
aspirant can have. 1t is some consolation
to know that the country will be saved the
| inhction Of sturdy old Ben in the next
quadrennal period. Take any shape but
that at Chicago and there may be cause tC
] COMPLAIN hut not so much To swear lie
has one essential requisite for the office, a
any rate, and that is, he is not bear. This
may look like a triling qualification, anC
negative at that, but in these degenerate
days the American people have TO put NJ
with short commons in the matter of states
! manship.

A correspondent OF one of the London
papers gives the following account of q
singular occurrence at Chamounix, Sa-
voy, on July 2Sd:
" At ten minutes TO five dark cloud
overshsdowed the valley of ChamOunix,
q peal OF thunder was heard, and then 8
continuous roar that awakened every
soul in the village and caused every eye to
strain itsslf in the direction CT the
Aiguille Bsitiere. At this moment no
sign could be seen of the cause Of so much
commOtion. Presently puff Of smoke,
as it so appeared on the crest of the
mountain that supports the Glacier des
Pelerins, raised cry that the glacier had
burst, bringing with it part of the mo-
rsine that had kept it within bounds.
The peasants of the valley were rushing
to and fro, driving the cattle into safe
quarters, and then all eyes were watch
ing one of the most glorious and over
whelming sights the visitors to ChsmOu-
nix could desire to see. My pen is too
weak to describe the commotion this
mighty avalanche created, every mo-
ment adding fuel to its course, tossing
up clouds of spray, bringing with it pine
trees, huge bOWlders, rude bridges and
deserted chslets, until it reached the
pretty Cascade du Dard, when the noise
was most deaiening. The falling mass
here, filling the gully and gaining speed
at every exertiOn, left the course the
stream usually takes, and, tearing down
pine trees, opened an immense track and
overfowed the meadows and gardens Of
the Hotel Royal, destroying whole fields
Of barley and potatoes, and, after spend
ing Its fury for twenty minutes on
meadow and peasant land, this muddy
mass formed itself into a large lake,
which will remain some time to be re-
garded by tourists as sn event that Is
very rare in the valley of Chsmounix." !"

A correspondent writing from the
gambling bells of Weisbaden, Hamburg
and Bsden-baden, says:
Every morning at sunrise there is a
squad of men seen searching the forests
that adioin the famous gambling resorts.
They are appointed by the Government
to hunt out the bodies of suicides.
Scarcely 3 morning passes that several
are not found. A short time since, at
Weisbaden, young English noblemsn
lost his all at the table. He blew out
his brains there and then with revol-
yer. His body was carried away; the
gamblers wiped off the blood from the
table with their bandkerchisfs, and re-
marked, Gentlemen, we will not delay
the game ~ The play went on as usual.
The ladies did not fsint-they were too
absorbed in the cliDck of the gold.
