STEWART HOUSE, NEW YoRK.-We invite
the attention of our readers to the card OF
the above named hotel, which appears in the
CRESCENT this morning. Mr.. Wheeler was
formerly of the LaFarge House, New York,
and Mr.. Stewart is well and very favorably
known to many of our citizens as having
been, for many years before the war, of the
steamer Creole running between this city and
Mobile. Visitors may be assured that they

The New York Sun of recent date says
" General Beauregard, who is now stopping al
the New York Hotel, says, IA reference to the
prot able course of the Southern delegations in
the Democratic National Convention, that it is ex
tremely improbable that the vote of a single
Southern State can be cast for the Democratic
candidates, and therefore the Southern Demo
crazy have no right TO advise, much less to insist
upon the adoption of any special nominee by their
Northern allies. The duty of the South is this
Accepting its situation, il will do its utmost TO
sustain whatever candidate shall appear most
available and most likely to secure success in the
judgment Of the Northern delegations. For Gen
Hancock all the white men in the South would
turn out and work with great zeal, If he should
happen TO be the nominee. But if, 10 the judg.
ment Of the Northern delegations. success could
only be secured by the nomination of Salmon p.
Chase, upon any other platform than absolute
negro suffrage. then the Southern white Demo.
Gratis would gladly work for his election also. But
if, unfortunately the Northern delegations should
put up such platform as the Pendlet0n people
Of the West propose, out Heroding that of the
Republicans on the negro suffrage question, then
the whites of the South would stay at home and
let their Northern brethren take the chance of
success or defeat without their assistance. Such
are the views of General Beauregard and those
whom he represents"

At meeting of the executive committee of the

ton OF Theodore Tilton that Miss susan B. An

The New York Tribune regrets that Gov.
Fenton has made up his mind not to accept
a nomination for reelection as governor of
New York. There are, perhaps, two reasons
for this determination on the part of the
governor-the certainty Of defeat in Noyem-
Der, and the deficiency in his bank account
caused by his unfortunate financial operations
at Chicago. The radicals don't want a man
who will not spend money in the cause, and
Coy. Fenton, it is very likely, has no more
money to spend. 1t is true that the Louisi-
ana delegation went off cheaply enough, but
it is understood that the travelling expenses
of the Mississippi delegates were very heavy.

night, but did not effect a permanent organi-

business, should be adjourned to next Tues
day. This is very proper There are several
members who cannot qualify under General
Buchanan's order, but who will be able to

those gentlemen to transact any important

The New York Tribune insists, after all,
that Wooley's mysterious 500, 900 was in
tended to be used as bride for senator's in
the impeachment affair. The Tribune seems
to be fatuously oblivious of the discredit
which this theory casts on its party. The
Republican party must have touched the
lowest depths of degradation, in popular
opinion, when its leading men are made the
objects of speculation and barter and sale,
by venal politicians and whisky-Ting manipu-
lators. Nobody, we imagine, really believes
that any of the seven recusant senators were
bribed, because they are known to be the
purest men of their party. But it seems to
have been considered quite matter of course
that the votes of some of the most violent i'm
peachers were in the market. In the end it
seemed to be only question of price, as to
Pomeroy and Others, who voted to convict the
President.

In 1865 the soldiers in Cook county, feel
ing that they had not been fairly treated by
the republicans, in the matter denominations
for Office, got up what was called "soldiers
ticket" for county officers, against the regu
lar republican ticket. On that ticket they
placed the name of Bob Smith, for county
Judge. The democrats made no nomina-
tons, but generally supported the Soldiers
ticket"
Certain prominent republicans of Chicago
then wrote to US asking extracts from our
files in relation to Bob, when he was a can
didate, here, for the legislature. We fur
nished them, and they were published in al
the Chicago republican papers, English and
German, all of which, then, spoke very ap
provingly of the ARGUS. All the 'soldiers
ticket candidates were defeated, Bob be-
ing the worst beaten man on the ticket
We received letters of thanks, from the
best republicans in Chicago, for furnishing
the extracts from our files-but as they are
private letters it is not proper for us to pub
fish them.
Then, the Chicago republican papers used
Bob's record with approval, and with effect
against him, and thanked US for furnishing
it. srs-
Now, they declare that record false and
abuse US for furnishing it.
Thus we see that it makes great differ
ence whose OK is gored by the bull.

THE VERDICT OF CHICAGO

The "pizen" little radical Chicago Post
on Monday evening, the evening before the
city election there, speaking of Bob Smith
the radical candidate for judge of the record
er's court, said:
"The welcome given by Chicago to Smith the
soldier will be the welcome given by Chicago to
Grant the soldier. The same act which arrays
Chicago against Smith arrays it against Grant,
who will be nominated for president in Chicago
in thirty days from Tomorrow Shall the wires
tell Grant tomorrow night that majority of the
citizens Of Chicago are against him, and prefer
Pendleton for president? That depends the
republicans of Chicago"
Well, Chicago has given her answer. She
don't welcome Smith the soldier" to any
alarming extent. She decides, by about
thousand majority, that she don't want him,
and, according to your logic, that she
don't want Grant either. How do you like
the answer?
The same little "pizen" Post, on the same
evening, said:
"lf we 1.-THE Bob Smith partly are defeated to-
morrow it will be the result of fair strand N,
fight. IF such bitter stay t-home nartisanu az
MeAllister and O. Hsra can be elected in Chico no
over the soldier, Robert w. Smith Chicago nav
as well be set down as a eopperhead city.5
Well, McAllister and O'Hara were e,ac,-
ed, on "a fair stand-up fight" We hope
you are pleased with the result.

The American Central Railroad,

Judge Thompson returned home las
Wednesday night. From q conversation
with him We learn that the Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago railroad have agreed to
purchase $l,500,000 of the LIST. mortgage
bonds of the company. This amount, with
iron secured, and liberal local subscriptions
along the route, will complete the road tc
New Boston, if not farther. Messrs Folsch
Il Co., have not yet been ordered to com.
monce shipping iron and they are impatient
that they have not been 80 ordered. They
are ready to furnish the iron as fast as il
shall be asked for. Mr.. Harbaugh is also
ready to furnish iron if needed. He is one OIL
the directors in the consolidated company, a
director also in the Fort Wayne Road, aad a
wealthy iron master in Pittsburg. We omit
ted last week to state that in addition to
those then named as directors in the consol-
dated company is Gen. g. W. Cass, presi.
dent of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chica-
60 Railroad.
Propositions of favorable character have
been received by Judge Thompson, from re-
sponsible contractors for the building of the
whole road, but nothing of the kind can be
acted upon until after the permanent organi-
cation of the new company. The directors
elected at Fort Wayne, are merely provision.
al These directors have called a meeting
at Chicago the first week in May for the pur.
pose OF efeettng a permanent organization.
After the work of that meeting has been dis
charged matters will progress rapidly.
Judge thompson Expresses the greatest
commence IN the belief that the road viii be
buh through this county this summer if the
people encourage the enterprise. What the
people are expected to do, cannot now be
stated, but after the meeting in MAY our
share of the work will be appartioned to us.
The greatest interest is felt and expressed,
concerning the road, by the people along the
whole line. Mr.. Hemmenway, the chief en-
gineer, states that it will require $2s4,00O
70 complete the road between New Boston
ana Galva, not including .iron.-Nercer
