The Washington correspondent
of the New York Times, writer
whose statements may be relied on,
writes on the same day:
judge Chase is open in his OPP
position to Gen. Grant and snecrs
Mt the disposition of the Republican
party 10 take up small men rs he
calls them. There is more move.
mcnt ON his behalf than appears on
the surface.
Correspondent of the Tribune says;
So far us Mr.. Chase is concerned,
it is known-for he does not hest.
tate to say-that he holds that tho
Republican party has been led in n
wrong direction, and that he has
always bccl opposed to Impeach-
mcnt. lie has not abandoned those
principles which he claims to be
republican. He believes in impair
tial suffrage and in universal am
ncsty. Within the last few days
Mr.. Chase has said that if the Re-
publican party should persist in its
present course, a new party must
inevitably be organized. That the
Republican party is unlikely in the
extreme to modify its policy while
Andrew Johnson is in power, must
be plain to every one who knows
the feeling Of the people and of Con-
gress. 1t is logical, then, to believe
that the new organization will be
effected. Besides, it is certain that
Trumbull, Fcssenden, Henderson,
and their followers, can never again
be trusted by the party which they
have betrayed. The Chicago Con
vention will deal with them as de-
sertcrs. These gentlemen, having
been turned out of the Republican
party with little hope of getting in
to the Democratic organization, will
naturally desire to make political
purgatory Of their own. They will
cheerfully unite with any effort to
make Conservative party which
shall be in the control Of the old es-
tablished office holders. The young
aspiring souls of the Republican
party, the leaders who within few
years have sprung from the people,
arc to be driven from power. The
new party will not oppose the adj
mission Of the Southern States; in
fact, they prefer their admission i'm
mediately, on the theory that Mr..
Chase will draw a very large part
of the colored vote.
The Tribune correspondent adds
that in his opinion the new party
is simply halfway house at which
Mr.. Chase may meet the Democratic
party, democrats of influence
have declared in his favor, and have
given it as their opinion that the
Democratic party would accept i'm
partial suffrage if coupled with uni
versal amnesty"
The weight of the evidence is de-
cidedly in favor of the proposition
that the active and aspiring
genius of Chase does not intend
to remain shclved in the Supreme
Court. "Quiet to quick bosoms is
hell" and Chase possesses the most
vigorous and eruptive intellect
IN this country. The Supreme
Court to him is a mere gildcd |
cage to an eagle. Political strife is
his glory, and to be its great moving
spirit his ambition. 1t hardly looks
within the Bounds of even a remote
probability that he can receive tho
Democratic nomination; but these
are very fast times, and it is more
than q month yet before the Demo-
