him to speak freely. But in public or
private, when be has anything to utter
by tongue or pen. be says it with ex-
treme rapidly and clearness, in terse,
marrow, idlomatic English. Even then
be clothes his thoughts in no flowers Of

The Washington correspondent of the

that Chief Justice Chase was seriously
being pressed for the Democratic nom
nation, have been compelled to change
their minds by the appearance this NOR
ming, ID the telegrapaic~ dispatches furn
ished to various Democratic papers by
The official stenographer at the White
House, of an article commencing Mr.
Chase to the New York Convention as the
strongest candidate. The idea put forth
and which is undoubtedly approved, if not
inspired. by the President, is that there
is a general feeling. in consequence of
the strength of the Republican nominal
tons. that the most available candidates
must be chosen by the Conservatives F;
that those most prominently urged for
the nomination unite in this view; that
there is quite a general concurrence in
the idea that the Chief Justice could I'M
tie all factions among the Conservatives;
could carry seventy Southern electoral
votes, and would command more Con-
servative Republicans and disaffected
Radicals than any other man that could
ba nominated.
1t is needless to say that the publica-
ton of this remarkable dispatch, coming
from the source it does, eXcites much
comment. 1t is regarded as a corrobo-
ration of the statements which have hith-
