Chase, to the effect that the latter did not seek

Chases organ, adds:-"Mr. Chase entered into
negotiations with the managers of the Demo.
cratic party for the nomination to the Presi-
part, with great activity, and he had all his
pert onal followers at work at it. The world

Democratic party TO carry all the elections,
national and local; and on the other part that
the Democratic party should nominate him for
the Presidency. These were the terms OF the
coalition. They were as fully expressed when
Mr.. Chase made the first overtuIes for the
Democratic nomination as if he had written
them out.n

On Wednesday night in one of the cars of
the train from Portland, quite an amusing in
cident occurred. The train was heavily load
ee with visitors returning from the Fair, and
moved slowly, affordng ample opportunity for
lively conversation In said car was an Alder
man OF the city of Lewiston, who was a val
liant and boistrous supporter of Seymour and
Blair. A warm discussion on the politics of
the day, arising, the entire compsnv-wboh
was largely composed of ladies' became mrob
interested. At last one of the party suo gestad
that the sense of the car be taken. To this ,bo
Alderman--his face glowing with satisfaction
at the supposed points be had made-readilv
assented. All those in favor of Seymour and
Blair's election were asked to stand up. ST.
lence reigned moment, then in solitary beau
ty arose the form of the editor of the Bruns-
wick Telegraph. A few others, encouraged by
the example, also stood up. The Grant men
were called for and it was six to one in favor of
Grant and Colfax Then the ladies, who wish
ed Gen. Grant to be President, were requested
to arise and every lady in the car-includinp

arose. "There is no need" said the gentleman
"of calling the opposition, for see that every
lady has arisen but one.
The ladies know which side is right. and the
incident was illustrative of how they would all
vote If they had the right. So believe the
women should vote. Then there might be
some hope even for Kentucky.
