NEW YORK, July 2, 1868.
The general political situation to-day
retnains unchanged, but there Is q
marked increase in the amount of out
aide brnR and bluff for PendletOn. So
far as the talk of the crowd is concern
ed, his friends have 1t almost all their
own way. The Fifth Avenue swarms
with them, and the mob of Pendleton-
ties has OveTdowed INTO all the adjacent
hotels There are not less than q thou.

enue, betting, swearing aud drinking

The admiration of their fellow western:
eTs of whatever political faith, and to
ment and apprehension among New
Workers. They had no expectation OF
being out crowed so completely on
their own dung hill, !gg
After all tho bluRter, however, 1t Is
impossible to see where Pendleton has
made any positive gains; Inc only
marked improvement In bis position
to-day is In the fact that even his bit
ierest antagonists are now forced to adj
nit that be is the only candidate in the
field with an organization behind him.
The moral effect is thus in bis favor,
aud the Southern delegates, whose only
umbiuon is to be on the winning side,
grow hourly more favorably inclined
to him,
John Morrissey yesterday openly
joined the Pendleton party in speech
10 the New York delegation. John told
them that he was the only man In the
delegation who knew where he was;
that they did not know whether they
were for Seymour or for Chase or for

own report other delegates assured him

day over great detection in the New

above are its precise proportions.
In their eagerness to put their best
foot foremost, the Pendleton men are
| boRstinR that Hendricks has positively
withdrawn from the contest, and that
IIhisletIer received yesterday peEempto-
| riIy forbade the use Of his name. This
Is an exaggeration. What Mr.. Hem
! bricks wrote was that he did not desire
| to have his name used as means OF
iniurinE Pendleton, or as a cause of di-
| vision, and that aB the Indiana Con-
vention had passed resolution of pre-
ference for Pendlston, he must insist
that till some developmentsi in the Con-
ton should seem to warrant the change
thew must vote for Pendleton. Those
who advocate Hendricks insist that he
Is very far from withdrawal.
Notwithstanding Gov. Seymour's
positive speech of declensiOn yesterday,
there are still plenty OF New Yorkers
who think he can be prevailed upon,
To a couple of gentlemen who, this
moruiuS, pressed upon him the spe-
cific question whether, IL the other
States should insist upon his nomfna-

he replied that that question presented
different state aof affairs from what
he had in contemplation when he made
his speech yesterday. 1 '-.A r+
The Chase movement makes no show
around the hotels, but among the. peo-
pie OF New York It remains strong.
Most OF the Western delegates scout at

among the probabilities, though they
all admit they would go for him if
nominated. Elk Congressman LIE

the Western Democrats: cd d--n

and d--n him I'm afraid he'll get
us in such a fix as to force us to help
