The leading rebel papers, in the interest of

at loss to determine when this difference
took place between Mr.. Chase and the Re
publican party. His friends powerfully
urged him as the candidate for the Repubi,

were supported by some Of the most nfu-

before the Chicago Convention when it be-
came so apparent that General GRANT was
the universal choice of the people that all

and the bitterest enemy of the colored race.

change whatever in the status Of the party
