The Covernorship.

It seems to be we'll understood that Governor Jewell wili perenptorily refuse to be again a candidate for Governor, al- though in the absence of his declination he would doubtless be re-nominated by exclamation.
 Various names are presented for the succession. Hon. Henry B. Harrison is brought forward by New Haven and his claims are favorably regarded by many throughout the State. He is gentleman of the first ability and of high character, and would make an excellent Governor. He probably will not work for his nomi- nation or election-but will make a good run on his merits, universally acknowl- edged.
 Hon. John T. Wait has also been named for the position, by his friends in various parts of the State, and will doubtless have large support in the coming convention. He also is we'll known in all parts of the State, and is one of the ablest as well as one of the most popular republicans in Connecticut. He will be Governor, some time; and if the choice falls upon him this year the chief magestracy of the State will be in excellent hands,.
 In the Western wart of Connecticut no candidate has been put forward; but in due time it will appear that Litchfeld, and Fairfield conties will have something to say. Litchfeld is generally modest and backward in presenting her claims, al- though she has several gentlemen of ability who would consent to be candidates. Hon. Amos s. Treat, of Bridgeport, the Speak CT of the House-an able, upright jurist and legislator-would be, perhaps. as ac- ceptable candidate as can be named from the Fourth Congressional district He is one of the best speakers the house has ever had, and would make first rate Judge or Governor. MT. Treat is native of Litchfeld county, was born ill New Milford, and resided there until he con- menced the practice of his profession, when he removed to Fairfield county. His career has been a most honorable one, in every regard, and his devotion to the principles of the Republican party has at all times been faithful and unswerving

 Christmas week was g terrific one for accidents. A car was thrown from 8 trestle work on the Prospect R. R. near Mayville, N. Y., on Tdssday of last week, containing forty-two passengers, twenty of whom were killed outright or have since died, and nearly all were more or less hurt. The car caught fire after up- setting, and several persons wedged into the wreck were burned alive. On Christ mas night 20 persons were killed and 40 or 50 wounded by the fall of church at Williamsport, Penn. Besides this there was the loss, it is supposed, of seven lives by the burning of the Center St. printing house in New York, and an unusual allowance of homicides resulting from the freer use of whiskey during the holli- days.

THE JIRGINL4 REPUBLICAN.S.

The republicans of Virginia have made
their nominations and taken their position
upon matters affecting the political welfare
of the State. How they stand may be
learned from the speech made by their
candidate accepting the nomination, which
is bold and unequivocal. The republican
party he declared to be national party.
while the party opposed to it is sectional.
The relations of the white and black races
bave been wisely settled by the repubi-
cans, but in Virginia there is a party which
seeks to undo that settlement and array
themselves in hostility to the blacks and
the will of the nation. Their plan Of cam
paign is to set the whites against the
blacks. This he denounced as unchristian.
lie also defended the personnel as well
as the principles of the republicans.
The party is made up" said he accord
ing to the conservatives, 'of ignorant ne
groes, carpet-baggers, and Scalawags.
The cry against carpet baggers may have
had some justification in the days of re-
construction, but now those who remain
among us have been acclimated and DOM
iciliated, and they can plead the Statute
of Limitations against the charge of va
grancy. Besides. where are greater car
pct-baggers than Viginians themselves
They have sought and found Office in ey-
cry quarter of the Union--one audacious
fellow coming to Congress from the very
precincts of Faneuil Hail. But the ne
groes. they are poor and ignorant it is
true, but where in the wide world will
you find more peaceable, we'll disposed,
and trustworthy laboring class? 1t is the
glory OF Republicanism that the poor and
humble seek its aid and protection, and
find it friend and benefactor. The Re-
publican party has not oppressed Virginia,
but has been her benefactor, even when
lniiicting necessary pain in the process of
reconstruction. The curse of Virginia is
and has been the same sectionalism which
now seeks to keep control of her. The
Republican party gave equal rights to all
in Virginia; gave her the Homestead law
the Bankrupt law, the Common Schoo
system, the prohibition against any in
crease of the State debt. and equal ant
uniform taxation"
The address was received with grea
applause. and the indications are that tn,
republicans will make a spirited cam
paign.

it will never become 2 peoples party. The
managers through their platform propose
nothing that cannot be obtaiaed through the

now as but an instruction among quarter
masters and contractors of the Democratic

against that organization, but it will rise SUI

that the founders of the new party ask no
utilization or cooperation with the democrat
&c party. Let us see TO it, then, that they do
not receive any. The Democracy on the 9th
OF August can nominate a good ticket, and
adopt platform which will be Endorsed by
every true reformer in the State. With our
consent, the ticket nominated on that day will
contain the name of 10 man nominated at Col

TIE CINCINNATI PRESS on IUk
NEW PARTY

1he new party meets rather cool re-
ception by the Press of Cincinnati. 1t is
too soon after the new party defeat Of last
November to repeat the experiment. The
reform papers are afraid to endorse the
convention heartily, showing by their
timid language that they have no faith in
its success, while the democratic paners
denounce it as an "insurrecton amono
the quartermasters and contractors of the
democratic party" and charge that the
whole movement is instigated by the re-
publicans. Regarding it as scheme by
Ewing to defeat Thurman's reelection tC
the Senate, the friends of the latter are
considerably frightened as well as indig
nant. and will show no quarter. The
Cincinnati Commercial republiean) re
marks upon the convention as follows:
"A chapter of political history of mpor
lance to the nation was made at Columbu!
yesterday. Free and full expression was
given to the profound public dissatisfaction
with the Democratic Party as the opposition
and third party was in good faith put in the
field. The stroke of business done was of the
most serious character. A platform contain
ing great deal that was excellent was adop-
ted. and ticket that was strong was nomina-
ted. No negotiations were carried on the
trading politicians were left out in the cold. >"
Not so respectfully, however, does the
Enquirer. the democratic organ Of Cncin-
matt, treat the new party. Ii is not so en-
amored with it as democratic papers out

SENATOR MORTON.

Senator Morton is now in Washington in
greatly improved health and appearance. The
Washington Chronicle, says: ellis hair which
was always of jct-black color, has gained
glossy hue, and his eyes sparkle and inten-
sity that speak volumes for the recuperative
powers of the hot springs of Arkansas, where
he resided as patient for several weeks. The
paralysis of his lower limbs, once so pain
fully apparent, has been conquered to such
All extent that, while there is a perceptible
halt in his gait, the locality of the trouble is
confined almost wholly to the right foot. This
regeneration of his physical system seems to
have affected his general spirits in CORES
ponding degree, and he conversos with an
ease ard dash that would be strangers to
anything but healthy physique.
The business that has brought him to Wash
ington is evoked hv the actibn of the last
Congress, in requiring the Senate Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections to inquire into
the manner of electing Presidents and Vice
Presidents The Chronicle also says: cit IS
whispered among some of the political busy
bodies that the visit Of Mr. Morton has a sec
ond object in yiew-none less than the hold
ing Of a quiet caucus of some of the most in
iluential leaders Of the Republican party in
the West, with the view Of forming a pro-
gramme for their guidance in treating the
oranges movement, now assuming such for-
midable dimen.ons in that section Of the

little sign of paralysis, except in his face,
