of Illinois, would be inaugurated President
if elected.-General Beatty IS off for Chi
cago Beatty is not exactly delegate, but
he is maa who is likely to have good
deal to say.-Owing to Charley Farwell's
large importations of influence for use
at the Convention at Chicago, the other

Columbus Journal nominated Uncle
Richard for Consul General at Frankfort
on-the- Kentucky. That reminds us. Your
Consul General at Frankfort.on-th the Main

in the. event that there should be more
candidates for Vice President than can be
ccommodated?-Mr.B B. J. Loomis is going
to Chicago in the interest of Sherman.
Loomis is solemn man, and very useful at
funeral.-Colonel Wilson, of Indiana,
makes statement to our correspondent
Jayhawker, which offers boundless oppor-
tunities for reflection to those Republicans
who are assailing Grant on the alleged

Ex-Governor Bishop, we fear. has started

contains nearly page of matter describing
the invincible qualities of the Ex-Governor
as a candidate; how he has never yet been
beaten; how he always carries Hamilton

clamoring for him for Vice President all
