The Republicans OF Michigan have decided
to renominate Gov. Bacey at their Convention on Aug
g. They confident Of rejecting him. notwthstand
ing the independent movement
Col. John Forsyth is prominently mentioned
as the Conservative candidate for Congressmau-at-
Large from Alabama. His political disabilities having
been removed by the last Congress, he Is eligible,
and 1t is announced that be is willing to accept the
lndtlOn.
The Syracuse Standard incidentally learns
that private meeting OF the Democrats from all
tons of the State be held at Saratoga to-day for
consultation In relation the political situation and the
prospects for carrying the State tins Fall Only the
faithful are TO be admitted - the conolaye.
Mr.. Fred. w. Horn of Milwaukee seems to
be a man Of frankness aud discrimination. He
asked be a candidate for Congress- but declined with
this unaus argument; II have money left
for eeconeering purposes, and this alone would make
me impossible especially in the City or Milwaukee"
A report is in circulation in Minnesota that
Gen. c. G. Andrews, U. {. Minister TO Stockholm pro
poses resign and return home for the purpose Of
entering the field for the U s. Senate, In opposition to
Senator Ramsey. The ST. Paul Pioneer hopes the report
is true and thus It's admiration for tho
man: "we need him. His well remembered aud ele-
CANT form has been missed, To- these rany days, from
his favore loung place IN froRt Of his hotel with
his fingers his arnhoes, his toothpick IN his mouth
his heels tattoong the sidewalk he wont raise
himself upon his toes In happy token OF the
with which he acknowledged his consequence, he pre-
sented au appearance for gods and men TO admire.
Hence II Ia natural that the scenes which knew him
those glorious days should De excessively aDxiols
know him more III he 10 not the biggest man Of
his me he Is certainly the biggest noodle OF his time
and that IL % boast OF which, in the absence OF auy
othoT, the General would be painfully proud"
The Washington organ of the Administra-
ton, The National Republican, is out de
Tense OF a third term IL argues that II continuous
service IN Congress enhances tho usefulness OF
hat ia "A fnrr
ing Hr TO- 90 or even q years, the services Of Ex-
ecutive who may have each successive term Of his
service proven efficient, who is st In tho fun
prime Of life aud yigor OF manhood and Intellect whose
int gritty spoess whose patriotism is ardent and
ggp whose fitness for the position has been In every
way INCREASED by the experience OF the past, who still
cherishes the profound respect for the popular
will aud bows to Its behests with the abne CATION
Of self as when first chosen 20 administer the gov
ernment." II then continues in this significant way :
Iu short, when We take o nse view OF this
socaed' third-term business, Is not the objection OF
tradition raised against II tho merest and clap
logici These observations are not made in behalf OF
Gen Giant any other man. The simple object no W
Ia to discuss the question In tho abstract Dvesed Of
all personal considerations IL appcars us that the
true interests OF this country are utterly opposed
