The DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES FOR PRE-
sIDEST AND VICE PREs1DENT-SUGGEs -
TIoNs OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AP-
poINTMENT.- Washington, October 49,
Quite stir has been created here among
the Democrats by the information received
here to-day Of what appears to be sponta-
neous action on the part of the leading
Democrats in the northern cities looking to
the withdrawal of Seymour and Blair and
the nomination in their stead Of Chase,
Johnson, Hancock, or some other of the
prominent persons who have been named
as Conservative candidates for the Presi-
dency. It appears, upon inquiry, that the
movement started yesterday had its rise in
private dispatches from leading Democrats
in the West to others in New York and this
city suggesting the calling together of the
National Democratic Executive Committee
ead the withdrawal Of Seymour and Blair
and the nomination of others in their place.
Dispatches have been received here to-
day that there is very general coincidence
of opinion on the subject among the leaders
of the Democracy, and this fact, and the
other that the New York World has an edi-
torial suggestive of the same plan, is taken
as sort of judgment pro confesso against
the present nominees of the Democratic
party, and an acknowledgment of the abb
solute necessity, therefore, of the nomina-
ton of new candidates. The Intelligencer
will have an editorial in the morning giving
reflex of the views entertained by Demo-
Gratis here.
The Secretary of the Treasury to-day ap-
pointed Thomas R. Laird to be supervisor of
Virginia and West NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Sun.
An evening Democratic paper has Wash
ington dispatch that says:
&c The political excitement here is unpre-
cedented. The doubt about the result Of
the elections on Tuesday has revived all
the want of confidence in Seymour's ability
to carry the people with him. A delega-
ton of politicians have gone to confer with
him about the expediency of his withdrawal
from the canvass.
at is known that his preference is for
Chase, and it is argued that if Chase was
the candidate the monied power which
has hitherto held aloof would at once rally
to his support. On the other hand, it is
claimed that the only man who will under
the circumstances be Immediately avail
able is General Hancock, who received in
the New York Convention the highest vote
given previous to the springing of Sey
mour's name upon the Convention" -BaI-

FoREPAUGH's MAMMOTH MENAGE-
RTE AND CmoUs, which is advertised
in another column, will open out It's
colossal pavilion, said to contain
ten thousand feet of canvass, in
Washington, Monday, October 9th
Weare not aware ofthe exact events
the advent Of this monster exhibi-
ton shadows forth, but Judging
from what we learn through the
medium of the local press, it must
be Of decidedly sensational char
acter According to common re-
port, it must be the largest and most
extensive collection ofanimals ever
brought together under one canvass
in the United States. Twenty-Five
massive cages and dens are required
to contain the multiplied specimens
placed on exhibition, while the ele'
plants, camels and dromedaries are
led as external appendages, to swell
the vast procession, which is said to
extend more than solid mile in
length, whenever the full resources
of the great geological and eques-
trian aggregation are brought into
reouisition, We doubt very much
whether any thing like it has ever
been witnessed before in this coun-
try, while we have got to learn of
an instance in which the slightest
objection has ever been raised
against it, or any person having
been dissatisfied with the character
or merits of this great exposition
1t will be observed that the caravan,
or geological departments entirely
separate and distinct from that OF
the equestrian, although one ticket
admits to both, BY this modified
arrangement, parties naturally op-
posed to a circus may visit the col
lection Of animals without coming
in contact with the brilliant scenes
of the arena, and quietly retire with
impunity. No person should fail
to 90 and witness this grand aggre-
facetiously styled the "a
PAW MAsToDoN. "

TONI the importance Of protective
fnediealion weremore generally appreciated,
our mortuary statistics would soon show a
wonderful decrease in the number of fatal re-
suits of disease. Millions Of people are crowd
ed together in districts where they are con-
stahtly exposed to the miasmatic virus which
produces ague jaundiee, fever and ague, and
dihdrcd complaints; snd millions more are
continually visiting or travelling through
those parts Of the country where febrile dis
eases infest the entire atmosphere for miles
in every direction. These classes are environ
ed with danger which cannot be overestima-
TED. They require a sure protective medicine
like MNHLER's HERB BFFfERS, which is
