In the Presidential Stock Market-
Prospects of ali the Candidates Re
fore the Convention.
Special to the Louisville Journal.
New YORK, July cit is probable that
large number of ballots will be taken,
aud that the nominations may not be ef-
feeted before Wednesday or Thursday.
There will probably be not less than
eight or ten candidates balloted for, and it
is broadly limited now that, failing to numi-
nate from the prominent names now men
toned, the convention may fall back on
Andy Johnson as Il compromise candidate.
Andrew johnson is gaining ground de-
cidedly. His letter, which has lust been
published here adds to his strength. His
friends have Issued a pamphlet, which
closes thus Revolution threatens us. Il
is boldly proposed by Radical leaders to
depOse the President and inducl Grant into
the White House a. his successor. These
plots can only be met successfully by An
drew Johnson, backed by the Democratic
party of the nation, aud if the party gives
him the support he needs, we pledge our
faith that he will 20 "a far as the farlhest
toward the overthrow and punishment of
the traitors" ...
The story about money being used 10 buy
up delegations is a Radical invention.
Nothing of the kind is prabable Nor ia
the story that John c. Breckenridge IS in
the city in disguise even possible. I have
seen a letter from him, only two days old,
in which he makes no allusion to politics,
but says: shall spend the balance Of
the summer in Canada"
Horace Greeley says thus is more
rousing convention than ever assembled,
except tina. which dominated Henry Clay
in 1914 The Radicals here generally adj
NIT that il is a wonderful success.
The Pendleton men still express great
deal Of confidence, but il is found thai he
has good many secret enemies among
those who profess TO be lis friends These
may combine with Wall street to secure his
defeat
Special to the Louisville Courier.
Nav York, July G.-Tha presentation
OF the name of Samuel Church by New
York Is feint, as was that of Chase. All
the movements Of these Willy politicians az
to this night has been a ruse and intendel
to damage Pendleton. Tonight they must
resort 10 Seymour, but a. contingencies
may not arise when either of those named
can be presented, they are casting about
for another. 1t has not transpired who
that is, but the name Of Judge Field, Of
California, is limited at, bat another may
be chosen. ras EBF
PendleioR's friends are still defiant and
nnWavsring. They adhere as staunchiy 10
him as Douglas force did At Charleston.
They claim $50 votes on the FIRST ballot,
and declare they can get as many as $50
votes, bus these figures are said by eNpe-
rienced politicians 10 be unreliable
The adveTsaries OF Pendleton deny that
he will, ia any contingency, get the aoces-
sions claimed from the South, and ! am
constrained 10 believe, from indications,
that his nomination is Improbable.
Bot upon whom will his strength fall ,
Not upon Hendricks. Fendleton's friends,
excepting Indiana, prefer any one else.
