Pendleton and Ohasc.

From the Cincinnati Commercial
The Endorsement Of Pendleton BY
blythe Illinois Democratic Convention
secures his nomination at New York,
beyond any reasonable doubt, notwith-
standing the efforts that are being
made to get up feeling in favor Of
Hancock, Dix, Blair, or some other
gentlemen. There is not now and
has never been any life in the Han
Geek, or the Blair movement, or the
D K orany other Democratic movement
except the Pendleton movement. Ex-
cept few who are personally in-
terested in Pendleton's defeat at New
York, there is not Western Demo
crat who is not in Els favor. Some
thing has been said recently about
nominating Mr.. Chase on such
platform as would secure the support
from Mr.. Chase himself, who is not
Presidential candidate, though he
would like very much to be Presi-
deut. There is not the least doubt
that if the Democrats would give
their support to Mr.. Chase be would
carry every Northern State, or very
nearly every one. But the project n
visionary one, viewed in the light Of
party ties and party prejudicss. Mr..
Chase neither asks nor expects the
Democratic party to support him,
however gratifed he might be tossee
them do so. Nor is it much Of q
secret in Washington that IS be-
tween Grant and Wade and Pendle%
ton and whoever else may be nomi-
mated at New York, Mr.. Chases
preferences will not be for the for
mer. ue would be much less human
and more divine than men generally
are in this world, if he we're inclined
to give his influence or his support to
men who have done their best to
slander and malign him in the exer-
else Of his highest Judicial functions,
and to bring diseredit on him as a
man because he acted uprightlY and
cOnscientiOusly as a judge. So il
need not astonish any one TO hnd
many of Mr.. Chase's Warmest per-
, sonal friends actively and earnestly
! supporting the Democratic nominee
next fall, and that nominee wii be
! Mr., PendletOn, beyond all doubt.

The demand for Government stocks continues TO
increase and the transactions are upon larger
scale than ever The preference is given by invest
ing parties to the 6s of 1867 which, in addition TO
their greater cheapness the longest to run For
all issues there is a good inquiry. For the lOwprced
State stocks there is an investment demand, and no
large amount could be had at quotations. Railway
shares we're strong except Erie which sold down to
IS! and closed at Cog. Fort Wayne sold at 49, and
Michigan Southern at so; the latter was freely
taken by strong buyers The offeFde 4 of
stocks were small, holders taking theeoS,!ound
that. under the present glut of money
a substantial advance is secure during the Summer
months. At the close the market was firm. New
York Central sold at 1854; Michigan Southern 9Os;
North Western Preferred, s1I; Fort Wayne, 1l64:
North Western Common, 6S3; Erie, 20. The balance
of the market was without special interest The
total amount Of conversions of SevenThirtes at the
New-York Office for May were Fifty-nine Millions,
and the purchases Twelve Millions, making total
of Seventy-one Millions. At the close Government
bonds we're rampant, and at the advance the demand
was very heavy and the market closed strong, with
small lots offered at quotations. The EIve-Iwentles
of 1861 continue the favotes and at the prices are
the lowest the list and late in the day there were
heavy sales at 49,; 62s were also in demand, and
