RECOMMENDATION.

"Mack" writes from Chicago on the
18th inst to the Cincinnati Commercial
as follows:
"a dispatch from Alliance, Ohio, to-day,
says that a special train Of fifteen cars is on
the way, call pledged 10 Grant, Wade and
vengeance" The last named parry figures
conspieuously in the proceedings here.
There is likely to be some trouble on the
course 70 be taken toward Fessenden,
Trumbull, Grimes, and their Republican
associates in the Impeachment vote. For
ney insists on reading them out Of the party
by formal declaration Of the convention.
Others prefer to let them alone and say no.
thing about them" ..-.- =.
Mack states that Logan and Judd,
the latter the Representative in Congress
from the Chicago district, are very bitter
in their deuunciation Of Senator Trum-
bull "as a traitor to his party and his
pledges Logan scorns all efforts to
persuade him not TO mention the subject
in the convention. "Mack insinuates
that mach Of Logan's bitterness is caused
by the remembrance that he was candi-

wear and a half ago Mac" adds:
"From the present aspect Of affairs it is
evident that one Of the big struggles OF the
convention will be 10 prevent the ebulliiion
and efirrvesence Of men who have come
here, like Logan, to crafty personal malice
under the guise Of party zeal"

its excitemenis, that il is impossible to find
a delegate or an outsider. with word to say
in defense or apology for any one Of the
erring seven. They are named only 10 be
literally damned"
The correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette, writing on the same day, (the
18th, says - e-.ls
"The outside feeling runs strongly in
favor Of a movement TO read out of the
party all the Republican Senators who
voted TO acquit the President. All the
speeches made on the subject at the meet
ings in the rooms Of the several delegations
to-day looked in that direction. General
Logan and Norman b. judd, of Illinois,
were particularly bitter in their denuncia-
ten of Trumbull. They sneered at men
who paraded their consciences on ques-
ton like this, and Inquired where their con-
sciences were when they voted for the Sen
ate resolution declaring that johnson had
violated the law in removing Stanton.
"Gen. Sickles, in addressing the New
York delegation, was less personal in his
remarks, but the tenor of his speech was
that impeachment had been defeated by
treason that treason had done its best to
break up the Republican party, and had
only succeeded in running the traitors.
"Col. Forney is very active in pressing
the idea that the convention should, by
resolution, read the anti-impeachment
Senators out Of the party. So far as known,
however, he is :he only conspicuous dele
gate who has taken open ground in favor
of 30 extreme a measure. The cool heads
Of the party seem TO be in favor either Of
passing over the impeachment business as
a dead issue that ought not to be thrust
into the Presidential campaign, or Of pass
ing a resolution that shall indOrse Congress
and condemn the course Of the President,
while leaving the Senators TO be dealt with
by their respective States. Those who
were earliest on the ground are less vehe-
ment now than yesterday in the demand
for the prosecution Of the anu-impeach-
ment Senators, but the fresh arrivals, es-
pecially from The heated atmosphere of
Washington, keep up the feeling. 1t is
very evident that 4 strong effort viii be
made 10 secure decisive action on the sub
ect in the convention, and that the bulk of
the outside pressure will be in favor of it.
The Soldiers Convention, which meets
tomorrow, will be hampered by no ideas of
party expediency, and it will denOunce the
Senators in set terms. The seven walls of |
its wrath are held in especial reserve for
Ross whom the soldiers all denoGnce as a
traitor 20 the cause for which ne fought"
