WASHINGTON. Dec r. 1869.
The trouble regarding Circuit Judges is deepening
and the present indications that unless some OF the
names are withdrawn from Senate by the President
xhey Will be rejected The opposton is mostly confined
20 three namely George II. YeamaH for the ONO Cir
Quit; George A. Pearre, for the Maryland Circuit, and
william McKennan. for the Pennsylvania circuit ana is
developing with great vgOr. The most OpecuohaDle Oh
Ahe non nees Yeaman and the burden OF the charges
gainst him Is that he In full accordance with the
bsepub.iean party Already remonstrances are pouring
5p mon the Senate Judiciary Committee One member
of the committee alone has received more
than A dozen protests, numerOusly signed, from
Kentual,y and others have TO hand
from Oho One OF the Supreme Court Justices has said
thar to President IS already considering the propriey
II recalling Yeaman's nomination. The objections to
cKounau that ne incompetent Pearre Is opposed
on several accounts and Is TumOred that his record IS
not quite satisfactory in regard to some Internal Revenue
matters ira his district IL appears that large number
OF Senators are dissatisfied with the nominees IN ther
districts because their own recommendations ana Inose
OF the Icuresehtatpes we're wholly dlsregarded.
The friends of initiation not to DO discouraged at
Che of the House yesterday, by which lngersoAs
bill To issue $4OOGCO) additional currency was reierieu
10 the Committee on Banking and Currency, although
majority Of that Committee record against any
FURTHER initiation They thought the bill would have had
better chance Of favorable report had 1t gone 10 the
WAYS and Means Committee. But should the GntinRa-
fOnss attempt 10 smother 10 in Committee, and make
Ho report they claim they carry majority OF the
House compelling the Committee to make report so
THAT the ggestion may be debated open House niger

a reasonable time for report from Gen Garhelds Com

opinion prevails that it viii pass Gen. Garfield who has

regard To the increased representative proposition, and
Il is tc1ved the Senate viii delay the BILL and adjourn
pver the holidays without passing upon IT, In such an
ayent tho BID Will be iTevocaby lost as by law the CEN
aus will be taken under the provisions OF the act
sf Congress passed inl1s50.
I N the opinion OF prominent Senators that the case
af Georgia viii be disposed ef by the Senate before the
adjournment for the holidays and that the State Will be
admitted In view Of the different interests from that
Btate which developing here and which are at var
Auce with each other and the elaboration on the case
(which seems to be demanded, the above result appears
Do be hardly warranted.
The Importance Of ratifyinc the Fifteenth Amendment
Chase n a novel and interesting form, lately. 1t is
asserted by influential Democrats who favor the nom
nation Of Judge Chase for President by the Democratic
convention OF 1872 that the ratification Of the Amend
ment viii be Of infinite service to the Democratic par
ss or the ChofJustce, nasmuch as he can bring to ms
support negro vote which no bona J'de mem
Der OF party do Pendeton, Hendricks, Hoffman
Gen Hancock. and others, being al record against
Negro suffrage, cannot II is urged, receive the nomina
zion the Fifteenth Amendment adopted by the
required number Of States; and it is further urged by
these friends Mr. Chase that the Democrats cannot
hope TO beat the Republicans except with the aid Of the
uegto vote. The Chef,Justce having always been on
abe side OF the eOOred it is CLAIMED that be has
Ehcr sympathy and confidence 20 greater extent than
any the country. In this view Of the case II Is
not improbable that many Of the Democrats VIII
regret see the Amendment become a part Of the
,CoustitutOu.

elections in their state.
