At the meeting OF the Democratic Cen

Springfield, ILL.,, on Saturday, Senator PAL
Mxa said that II was true that the news
papers and some public men" had spoken
of hun az candidate for the presidency.
and that he supposed he was mot at lib
erty to overlook the fact that it is within
the range Of mere possibilities that the
nomination" might reach him. lie
further said that " Illinois is a Democratic
State, and being a Democratic state
IL has become q force in politics IN
the United States" and I'VE need not de-
pend upon New York alone TO furnish can
didates." Oh, yes, heIs possibility, and
with his free consent.
Ex-Governor CAMPBELL. OF Ohio, has
announced that he would not accept the
nomination for the vice-presldency, on the
Democratic ticket if 1t were offered him.
lie declares that he is not a candidate Tor
the presidency. but adds that no man
would be likely to refuse the nomination
if rendered 10 him."
An Indianapolis special to the New York
Times reports a scheme on foot to nominate
Mr.. GRAY tor Governor, " he believing that
this recognition would give him great

The Eailrra of the PrGfaSfarS.


The opponents Of the early convention and OF
Hillism In the Democracy have made their pro-
test, but 1t was foredoomed TO fall on the deaf
est kind OF deaf ears-Sew York tribune.
1t is 10 Mr.. CLEvELAsDs credit that he
has not favored the Syracuse convention.
For him to do so would be equivalent to
declining to be candidate before the Chi
sago convention. He has large number
OF friends in the various States. particu-
larry northern Republican States, but he
could not hope to carry those friends with
him were he inclined to bolt, as We are
sure he is not. As the Tribune says, the
complaints of boilers, though made TO the
general public, fall on the deafest kind OF
ears. FAfBoHILD. ANDERSON, and the rest
of the leaders of the boiling movement in
New York might rs well withdraw the call
for the Syracuse convention. Perhaps
they can evolve from their inner con-
seriousness some greater humbug.

In the Federal Senate yesterday Dir.
Stanford introduced d bill to determine
the value OF legal-tender dollar. LAID
on the table tor the present. 1t provides
that the value of 20 $40 grains of gold shall
be the standard by which shall be deter
mined the value of dollar; that all dol
lars shall be received and paid out IN dis
charge Of debts. both public and private,
at par, measured by that standard, whether
the stamp of the government making the
dollar be on gold, silver. paper, or any
other material also. that the legal-tender
value of each dollar issued by the United
States shall depend alone on the stamp OF
the government; and that there shall be
an obligation on the part Of the govern
ment to exchange one dollar for another.
Mr.. Voorhees,, in presenting petition
from Stillwell Post. Grand Army OF the
Republic. for the defeat of the free coin
age Of silver. made some remarks as 10 bis
personal position on that question. Ii was
the first communication of the kind, he
said, which he had ever received from
Indiana He had traced the petition,
however, to one Michael ID. Harter." who
sought to alarm the soldiers of the war for
the Union on the subject of their PEN
slons. Representative Harter, OF Ohio.)
Mr.. Voorhees, then proceeded TO make a
free-sllver coinage speech. When he had
tANNhtoAA NN'S 'N1
again taken up, and Mr.. Claggett, the
claimant, resumed his argument (begun
on Friday) in support Of his claim to the
seat. He spoke for little over an hour,
and was followed by Mr.. Dubois, the sit
ting member.
Mr.. Pugh. who had signed the majority
report in favor of Mr.. Dubois, made an
argument in defence of II. While he was
speaking the chair of Mr.. Vance, who sat
close 10 him, broke down. letting the North
Carolina senator tall TO the floor with some
force and much noise. As Mr.. Vance
picked himself up, apparently unhurt, he
said, with laugh: Il beg your pardon
for interrupting you; to which Mr.. Pugh
rejoined that he had not supposed that his
argument would be so overpowering.
Mr.. Mitchell gave notice that he would
ask the Senate TO SIT out" the Idaho case
to-day.
In the House Mr.. Catchings, from the
Committee on Rules, reported resolution
providing that on Tuesday, March 22d,
Immediately after the morning hour, the
House shall proceed to the consideration
of the silver bill; and that should said
bill be not sooner disposed of the House
shall continue the consideration thereof
during Wednesday the Esd and Thursday

that he would ask the House to consider
it on Monday next.
