IRtiOn.
Special to the Louisville Courier.
WASHINGTON, July I3-The President,
10 conversation to-day with several promi
nent Democrats, spoke in high terms of
Seymour, of his purity of character and
integrity. He thought the nomination Of
Hancock would have possibly pOlled a
greater number of Conservatives, but that
the liberties of the country were at stake,
and the duty of all was 10 give a hearty
aubpOTt to the nominees of the conyen
ton. There was no halfway ground So
far from bel ng chagrined at the result, the
President, with characteristic mOdesty, de-
clared that he had received more public
honors than he deserved, and now all that
remained 10 him was to look TO the inter
eats of the country. Sims
The President il evidently disposed to
give material support to the ticket, but it
is rumored that some Of his Cabinet differ
with him, Seward among the number. y
Gen. Craig, OF Missouri, publishes letter
denouncing Buffers report on lmpeach
ment, 80 far "a his testimony is concerned.
He pleasantly adds that Butler IL a thief,
aud a puppy, a great liar and dirty dog.
The Radicals are afraid Of the election
in Virginia, and will attempt TO amend the
House bill in the Senate, 50 as 10 prevent
further registration. This will cut of
twenty 1--WE thousand Conservative votes.
The House killed the bill to-day allow
ing Hon. }. ID. Young, of Kentucky, two
thousand dollars to pay his expen ses in
contesting the election with Mckee.
Romero, eX-Mexican Minister, will
marry Miss Allen, of this city, on the 18th
instant, and leave forthwith for Mexio.
Congress will not adjourn until August
|. The Radicals claim a fraud in the Mis-
sissippi election, and are arranging to cheat
the Conservatives out Of the fruits of their
victory. Several carpet-baggers have ar
rived Ia swear the thing through.
Special to the Louisville Journal. s.E
WASHINGTON, July Is, IS6S.-The de-
bate in the Senate to-day on the funding
bill ives significant. The Radicals took
the greenback side Of the argument, and il
is generally believed the demonstration is
the forerunner of s general party move
ment in that direction. The more astute
of the Radical leaders say that the New
York Convention, by its nomination OF
Seymour, leave them a chance 10 out-Pen-
dleton abe Pendletonians, and this they in
tend TO do, Jay Cooke or no Jay Cooke.
Mureton, Of Indiana, is at the head Of this
idea.
Many Of the New York delegates are
sill here. Some noisy johnson men, with
the hope, no doubt, Of commencing them
selves 10 the President, are talking about
getting up another Philadelphia Conyen-
ton. They will receive no general coun-
tenance. Andrew johnson himself, as 1
learn from one Of his most confidential
Tennessee friends, is reconciled 10 Seymour,
and says the hope OF the country rests Hpon
the sucesss OF the Democratic ticket. A
variety Of opinions are expressed about the
ticket. Some Of our friends are afraid that
Seymour cannot be elected. II he cannot,
God help the country. He is the ablest
man in The Democratic party, and one OF
the purest. If any protested Conservative
votes for Grant, iG will be conclusive evil
