A NEW POLITICAL PARTY.-The initi-
alive step was taken in Boston, ON Satur-
day last, towards forming what is desig-
mated as the National Union party, with
General N. P. Banks for the Presidential
candidate and possibly L. Q. G. Lamar, of
Mississippi, as Vice President. A State
Central Committee was formed, and a
platform and resolutions were adopted.
No prominent men OF either party took
part in the proceedings. The resolutions
pronounce Republican or Democratic par
tisan organizations dangerous, and call for
Il new party of peace, etc.
They further condemn the enormous
frauds on the Government, dishonest pub
lie officials, great monopolies and corpora
tions as tending to Cypress the people
Sudden imitation orcontraction of currency
is declared dangerous, and the only way tc
specie redemption is to make the promise
of the nation as valuable as private notes
No encouragement should be given to sec
tional enmity.

| for President, and did not desire his name
to stand in the way of that governmental
reform which four-fifths of the people de

Ga, and John A. Kernochan, of Massa-

ested in q case involving q large amount
of property, before Judge Schley, which
was decided adversely to him. Kernochan
became very angry, first at his lawyers and
then at Judge Schley, and it is supposed
came to Saratoga to chastise him. On
Thursday last he met the Judge at the
door of the main Office, on the north pi-
azza, and after accosting him roughly,
struck him a heavy blow in the face, sea t.
terlng his spectacles on the pavement.
The Judge soon recovered, and severe
struggle commenced, and although Ker-
nochan is only So years old, the Judge was
Furnishing him terribly when they were
parted. Afterwards Kernochan approached
