EASTERN DISPATCHES.


From the Tre>pass Of yesterday.
WASHINGTON, July H.-House-The Sen
ate went into Executive session.
Edmund's Electoral College resolutions,
which exclude States not represented March,
1867, was agreed to, and the bill goes to the
President.
The bill to bridge the Mississippi River, at
Rock Island, passed. The expenses are not
to exceed 81 10000
The bill for the distribution Of awards to
the captors of Jeff. Davis passed.
The President has issued a proclamation
that North Carolina, having ratified the
Fourteenth amendment, is now admitted to
all the rights belonging to one of the States
Of the Union.
The House and Senate spent much time
in matters concerning taxation, tariff, and
reduction of the military force.
New YoRK, July l0.-The Herald says
the Democratic party has decided that Grant
shall be President; and that Seymour against
Grant amounts to the surrender or disband-
ing OF the party.
The Times says the ticket will not bring
out the full vote of the p ,rty, and that moth
ing but miracle can save it.
The World thinks Seymour stronger than
Chase.
The Chase Club of this city has determin-
ed to support Grant.

THE TENDER-ToED DENoCRACY.-The
New York World having suggested that the
Democratic platform contain plank declar-
ing "that the late civil war was, Itself, ne
cessary exercise of Constitutional Govern
ment to put down a rebellion" the Cincin-
natl Enquirer protests, and says: There
are thousands CT Democrats-very homes,
men-men whose faith has been tried in fire
who do not, will not, cannot adopt the de-
cision. The party cannOt-at least as we
conceive it-atford to bid adieu to these Demo-
Gratis; to invite them to leave the ranks,
drum them out of its camp, and inscribe
upon its banners a sentence which condemns
their opinions, and places them in the light
of traitors and criminals. We do not I'M
oerstand how a Democratic candidate can
hope to be elected without the assistance of
that body of sincere men who opposed the
war from conviction, and whose conviction
have been rather confirmed than unsettled
by the everts Of the times and the prosecu-
tons they have undergone. Loose talk,
boasting, and ante-election gasconade is one
thing and facts another. Presidents have to
be elected by votes; and to ask men to sus-
tain proposition which is .bhorrent alike to
their convictions and their feelings, is not the
way to secure their assistance"

PEDEsTRIANIsM IN ENGLAND.-A won
derful feat Of pedestrianism is reported by
the London Morning Star to have been
achieved by man named Woodhouse, who
undertook, for bet of f20, to run forty
miles in five hours. The course selected
was the high road from Newington to Croy-
don, distance Of ten miles. Woodhouse
ran from Newington to Croydon and back in
two hours and fifteen minutes. The next
ten miles. from Newinaton to Coydon. he
performed in one hour and twelve minutes,
and completed the whole distance By 9:53 A.
NJ, having seven minutes to spare, without
exhibiting any distress.

worse and more dangerous than Val

were more dangerous.
Some words uttered by the Copper
head speakers who held forth here on
last Saturday night let us know that
the old Hunker purpose and the old
Hunker style Of electioneering are still
cherished, still in vogue. Men who
sympathized with the rebels by reason
OF being Southern born, State Rights
men, like Mr.. Billy Anderson, are plau-
sible enough to talk glibly of the
" glorious Union and the dear old
flag" and recount the giories of a
" white mans Government" old Bour-
bon Wings, like Bob Taylor who were
poisoned III their youth with knicker-
booker tea, and who followed Seymour
into the bunker revival of 1868, re-
cite some touching illusions to the con
clusion of L" this cruel war" and beg
of the "War Democrats to help
them to reestablish the Satanic maj
ssty of IIunkerism and abandon the
steam car of Progress for the jolly old
% jerk water - of the days before the
war
Where is the " War Democrat who
is to be seduced by these specious ap-
peals? What patriotic American who
loves country above party and reveres
the great deeds which rebound TO her
glory will cast his vote in favor of ele-
waiting Horatio Seymour above Ulysses
S. Grant? Can any man who was in
dead earnest when he cheered for the
victories at vicksburg, Gettysburg
and Appomatox cry up with Sey
mour and down with Grant,
Some Copperheads, in the true spirit
Of Hankerism, will tell you : Well,
Grant is not so bad, but he is in bad
We heard Hunker talk
