Argument.
CHICAGO, July 4th. - The IateT. Oceans
Washington special says: A gentleman just
from Don Cameron's cottage at the Springs
says that nothing could be more malicious
than the charge that Cameron, dissatisfied
with the nomination of Garfield, made pre-
tense of sickness to refuse the chairmanship
of the National Committee. He says the
friends of Cameron are seriously concerned
about his health.
Don Piatt argues in the Ssadag Capitol to
day that Garfield cannot be elected, because
the American people never have elevated and
never will elevate, man of brains TO the
Presidency. He cites Webster, Calhoun and
Corwin as examples to prove his conclusions.

Bank Cashier in Trouble.
New YORK, July 4th.-James A. Hedden,
Cashier OF the First National Bank in New
ark, n. j., now in the hands of Receiver,
was arrested yesterday on board the steam
ship Germania, as the vessel was entering
this harbor from Liverpool. Hedden says he
knew when he left New York that the bank
was a little weak, but everything seemed to
be going nicely, and he only went to Europe
at the urgent request of his phyieians. When
bank had closed he was thunGerstruck, and
decided to return on the 18th, ten days after
his arrival, but he was taken sick just before
leaving Liverpool. He saw in the American
papers that he was charged with embezzling
S225, 900, and the accusation not only drove
him crazy, but he would show that he was
honest.
