Opinions Of the Newspaper Press On the


Chase Movement.


From the Observation-Disclosures -polltico radical


There can be no doubt that Mr.. Chase and his In
innate personal friends think that his chances are
excellent for the democratic nomination for the
Presidency One Of his best friends said Yesterday.
Ellis chance for the nomination is better than that
OF any person yet named" That is, his prospects
are better than those OF Hancock, PendletOn, or
Hendricks few prominent democrats here favor
his nomination. When questioned closely, they ad-
NIT that their object is Ito beat Grant, They also
insist that once Mr.. Chase gets upon the track he
will lose his old prejudces against negro haters and
OppressOrs, and become good democrat, which
means friend to everything bad.


From the Chicago Republican-radical.l


For some time Pendleton has been very anxious to
doctor the public debt, and now Belmont is very
him off in New York, about the Fourth Of July, in
the house Of his own friends, with dose OF his own
neutrality-suspicious.. The story Is that the Chase
interest has raised bribery and corruption fund OF
81, 100000. This cannot fail to prove very cogent
argument In fact, it has kicked up very extensive
bobbery in Pendletonian circles IL such statement
had been made relative to influencing the nOnina-
ton by republican convention, 1t would have been
received with a smile of incredulity contempt
But spoken of the New York cOnvocatOn 1t engenders
the most lively apprehensons.


The same paper furnishes the following


Our advlces from New York that the Chase
movement is hourly gaining strength IN the city
that the Manhattan Club, comprising the aristocracy
of Tammany, are harmOnZing with the Empire Club,
the Dead rabbits and other democrats, and that ere
the Democratic National Convention meets all the
clans VIII make common cause in favor or the n0m
nation of the Chief Justice.


from the Philadelphia Teegraph-radica.l
There has probably never been more disgraceGli
exhibition Of sacrifice Of principle to love OF office
than that unholy union between the Chief Justice and
the democrats. There is in ii, to mind, some
thing peculiarly revolving for Mr.. Chase, who has
ever been the most decided opponent Of the demo-
Gratis, who has seen them throughout the war
battling openly or cOvertly for the success OF
rebellion, who has had rare opportunities OF seeing
the bitter maevoence OF the rebel element, to now
clasp hands with these men, and for love OF office,
for such union causes us TO doubt all virtue.
! While for the democrats with the battle cry OF
white mans government, and the hatred OF all
thought Of negroes participating in the Offices or the
themselves 10 gain offlces, is equally unblushing.
But it seems to us that If the platform quoted be the
true one, then they give up but little while Chase
this declaration It is left to the States exclusively.
This is concession. All recognized that fact be-
fore. The States can, they want TO, give suffrage
to the blacks; but will they want toS Certainly not.
rhe union formed is one IN which Mr. Chase receives
nothing but the chance OF Office, while he sacrifices
principles and honor to gain an end.

coincide with Chase's idea OF specie payment and
accept negro suffrage not as principle but fact
