"Hon. c. L. Vallandigham-My Dear
Sir: have just read the resolutions of
the Montgomery county (Ohio) Demo-
cratic Convention, reported by your
self, together with your remarks and
those of Mr.. Hawk. You have rendered
a great service to your country and the
party, at least such is my judgment.
May God bless you for it. Nothing
can be truer than your declaration that
the movement contemplated by the
resolutions is the restoration of the
Democratic party of it's ancient plat
form of progress and reform.
81 know you too well to doubt your
courage or your fidelity to your con-
victions. Very truly yours,
"SALMoN P. CHASE"

LONDON, June 23.-There is no pro-
liability of a speedy solution of the
monarchical question. As yet the
French people have scarcely so re
covered from the effects of either the
Prussian invasion or-of the civil war
as to enable them to come to a satisfac
tory conclusion or to summon resolu-
ton enough to attempt it.
Theirs cannot be expected to favor
the return of the Bonapartes to power,
and the only ground for supposing that
he favors the Orleanists is that he was
Minister under Louis Philippe
Notwithstanding his age and bitter
experience of the vanity of ambition,
he may be inclined to cling to the love
OF power, in concluding that more time
is necessary to assertion the real
wishes of the French people as to their
future Government.
The final determination of the cues
ton will, however, be made by the
Legislative Assembly, probably at the
next session, provided the military
leaders can be so managed as to alb
stain from interfering in matters
which they may suppose would not
comport with their interests.
1t is rumored that combination
will be attempted to be effected
through the Count de Chambord with
Marshal Mcmahon and the Count of
Paris, the Duke d'Aumale, and Prince
de Joinville.
