CoLFAX Al HOME.-A letter from
Northern Indiana thus describes the
manner in which the nomination OF
Mr.. ColfaX for the Vice Presidency
was received there:
AS soon as the news ofthe Speak
er's nomination for the Vice PreSl-
dency had been flashed over the
wires. there TRANSFERRED III all the
towns and villages Oh the railroads.
in northern Indiana scenes which
our people will remember for long
wears to come. Business was gen
orally suspended, and there was
every where shaking of hands, and
jubilant cheers rent the air, as if the
gladest tidings that ever reached
northern Indiana had been reached.
1t is 10 wonder that Schuyler Col
fax should be so exceeding popular
with his own people.
There are few men among them
who have not shaken hands with
him. looked in his genial, kind-hcart-
cd face, and exchanged a pleasant
word with him. The very Demo
Gratis are proud of him, and it is Z
we'll known fact that every Con
grcssional election for the past
twelve years he ran III every town
ship OF his very large district con
siderably ahead of his ticket, an,
that the ablcSt and most popula
Democratic leaders were unable t,
defeat him under the most tavora5l
circumstances. | asked, on Satul
day, a gentleman from Northern
Indiana how Grant and ColfaX WoulC
run i'll that part of the State, and h
replied that no matter who WOulI
be the Democratic nominees, Gran
and ColfaX would sweep the tw,
northern districts by between cigh
and nine thousand majority; tina
untll'electi0n day, every Republlca
there would consider himselfa econ
mittce of one" and work with Ill
tagging zeal for the success of til
ticket; and that a great many Den
ocratS would vote Tor it.

Mr.. CHASE AMONG THE NEW
yopK nEuoCRACY.-The New York |
correspondent OF the Charleston
Gov Ter represents that the Chase I
movement has grown to great pow
err among the Democrats OF that
CITY in fact ut the hour of writing
this. | believe that Chief Justice
Chase is the most popular name III
the city. How soon that sentiment
NAV change it is difficult to tell, but
nobody can deny that it exists Just
now. and were he at this moment to
present himself on Change at the
Astor, or on the steps OF the CITY
Hall. he would receive an ovation
such as Grant has never met with
in this city, Among the dlStln-
ouished Democrats who have pro
nounced for Chase are given the
names Of Peter Ca%gcr, Vanderbilt,
John Morri>Scy, 5. ). Cox. formerly
/ of Ohio. Dan voorhees, OF Indiana,
/ w. NJ. Tweed, Charles q. Cornell,
and most OF the old Tammany lead
ers. We quote some of the reasons
that are thus driving the Democrats
over to the great Republican leader
for a candidate against Grant:
1t is urged on all hands that in
so far as it appears to he a ioregone
conclusion that the Southern States
are TO participate III the election, 1t
is inn ortant that the negro vote
should bG'dividcd. Mr.. Chase Will
certainly receive many OftherNOteS
if not IpOIe than Gen. Grant. MI
/ Chase is Il free trader, and what IS
considered of the greatest moment
is that he has the entire banking i'll
crest of the country at his back,
and would really be the best man
to straiehteu out the finances OF tho
country, which first became mud
died under his administration of tn,
Treasury. Another argument pu
forth 0y the Democrats IS that i
would be almost useless to have
one OF their own men i'll the Press
dental chair. while the Senate IS
for the next -four years at least, t
remain in its present political com
complexion. With Mr.. Chase in tn
White House, it is quite likely tina
a working majority can hc obtainc'
: along with the conservative RcpuO
lcans, and that an adminiStratio
thus inaugurated would prove ell
cicnt, and tend to reconcile the Y;
riouS conflicting interest Of the coun
try. These are the arguments ON
hears now all around the city, an
. they cannot fail to have their citcc
upon the delegates shortly to arrlv
III this city.

TIE RESULT OF THE lMpEAClI.
MENT TRIAL.-Mr. Boutwell, of
Massachusetts,, in speech at Lowell
last week, said:
The great question Of impeachment
has been tried and settled by the
proper tribunal, and while that judg
mcnt might not meet with his views,
as a good citizen he bowed TO the
decision. nor should he bring any
charges here that improper means
were used to influence the judg-
mcnt. The President had Il fair
trial aud waS acquitted on technical
questions. The lesson hc ought TO
learn from it is that he should en-
force and obey the laws.
Senator Trumbull, Of Illinois, has
written a letter in which he says:
| think | am right in coming to
the conclusion that no crime or mis-
dcmcanor iustlNiug impeachment
/ was made out III the case; but if
mistaken in this, ] must, of course,
