The Candidates—Hancock, Pendle-
i tod. and Chase.
We copy the following speculations from
the New York and Washington.correspon
dence of ‘.he Charleston Courier. A9 the day
for the nomination approaches all thoughts
are intent upon the great question:
Washington, June 5.
President-making is now the principal
pursuit of Congress and of politicians of all
parties. Every act ot Congress will have
diytji C/.ererOO'tfr this object. The Radicals
begin to consider the appearance of a Chase
party is the Democratic ranks as a serious
obstacle to their success at the Presidential
election. We hear from every quarter that
Democratic and Conservative leaders avow
their preference for Justice Chase, both on
the score of principle and of policy. The
opposition to Chase from the Vallandigham-
Pendleton party will be earnest and -ob
stinate.
For Mr. Pendleton, as the Democratic can
didate, there are no less than thirteen State
delegations already committed. Other State
delegations are yet uninstructed. After meet-
ing in New York, the Chase and Hancock
leadars will present their views in regard to
the availability of their respective candi
dates, It is urged that Gen. Hancock can
carry a large portion of the Union soldiery
with him, who would otherwise goforGrant.
They would probably vote for Grant as
against Pendleton. But the soldiers’ vote is
overestimated. It is supposed that the pop
ulation of the United States is now near lorty
millions, and that the number of voters at
the Presidential election will be four millions.
Of thw number it is computed there will be
but half a million of soldiers who took
part in- the war on the side of the Union.
Nearly all these men^bave fixed political pre-
ferencea, and those who are Democrats will
be as likely to vote for Chase as Hancock.—
But that few of them only will vote for Pen
dleton, iq generally agreed.
Letters have been received hero inquiring
whether Mr. Chase will accept the platform
declaring that every State in the Union shall
have the right to regulate the matter ot suf
frage for itself, and it has been promptly and
positively replied that he will. But one of
the main arguments in favor of Chase’s nom
ination is, that it will place a civilian in com-
petion with a soldier, and oppose a civil
government to milstary domination.
New York, June 5.
The more we are approaching the day ap
pointed for .holding the National Democratic
Convention, die more apparent does it be
come that Goo. H. Pendleton will not receive
the nomination. ASide from the fact, that
all Eastern delegations are opposed to him,
we now hear from the West that the Minnes
ota and even the Illinois delegations are di-
BDd thatalmc.^ every d»~abo is losing
iCfig-tjiT"men, who,ITaiiy, ought to
pnsli bis claims Iteforethe Convention. 1 do
Dot mean to say that Mr. Pendleton is unpop
ular ont West. On the contrary, I do not
think there is a statesman in that section of
the country who has a larger number of ad
mirers among the people than Mr. Pendleton.
His greenback policy is an.attractive, though
poisonous policy, and Western people not
possessing many bonds care little whether
they are paid in gold, coin or paper. But.
the men charged by the party witli casting
the voje of the State for a Democratic candi
date far the Presidency have heard the voice
of tlie lEast, which tells them to beware, be
fore tliey vote for semi-repudiation. These
men hive listened to arguments, and now
comenpe to see the error of their ways—
and hence not all Western delegations will
come here determined to vote for PeDdletou.
As many delegates will reach here in prin
ciple opposed to him as will be the number
of those who will stick to him to the last.—
Of course, according to all reports, the Pen
dleton clubs from the West will come herein
great numbers, with their bands and ban
ners, and make a great noise. Bat by tbe
time these gentlemen are well quartered here,
they will ascertain that the Presidential Con
vention in the metropolis will, unlike its pre
decessors in other places, not be controlled
by a mob. It will be a deliberative body,
where law and order will preside, and no
outside pressure will be permitted to inter
fere with the regular proceedings of a Con
vention; .where none bnt duly accredited
delegates will have the pianagement of the
important business to be gone through with.
The Chase movement continues to increase
in volume, and has now spread to the neigh
boring States to an extent that really aston
ishes the old-school politicians. It is expected
that little New Jersey, in its State Conven
tion, to be held next Wednesday, when na
tional delegates are to be elected, will in
struct them to cast the vote of the State as a
unit for Salmon P. Chase. The talk in favor
of the Chief Justice has wonderfully increased
of late at all the public places, clubs, political
headquarters, etc., and whether he will be
nominated or not, that talk alone thus far has
scared the Radicals. They fear Chase’s pop
ularity more than that of any other mau
spoken of in connection with the nomination,
well knowing that_ not only many free-
tT»de TRpnmican3"wiU desert Grant, and
join their fortunes to a life-long free-trader,
but they also perceive that the very novelty
of the Chase nomination by the Democratic
party is sufficient to create great enthusiasm
among active young men, besides the fact
that his great talents end firmness of charac
ter shine in noble contrast to the mediocre
capacity and confessed vaccilation on the
part of General Grant.
With Chase and English as the Democratic
ticket, the Republicans are ready to confess
judgment; and well may they do it, unless,
indeed, the present revolutionary Congress
hits upon some scheme to manipulate the
electoral votes when it comes to the counting
of them in December next. These revolu
tionists, now iL Congress, are bold enough to
do anything, and our worst fears in that re
gard may unfortunately be realized when it
shall appear that General Grant has been de
feated by the people.
Hon. Geo. H. Pendleton.—We find this
statement in the Nashville Press and Times
(Rad.) of Thursday, and trust that it is cor
rect, as it would convey an assurance of en
tire harmony in the National Democratic
Convention and a hearty support of its nom
inees by the party in all sections:
A letter has been received in Washington
by his friends from the Hon. George H. Pen
dleton, in which he authorizes the withdrawal
of his name as a candidate for the Presidency
whenever, in their judgment, another candi
date evinces greater strength. General Han
cock’s friends have determined to pursue the
same policy, thereby securing perfect har
mony in the National Democratic Conven
tion.
Can Negroes Hold Office in Georgia ?
Neither the Reconstruction acts, original
or supplementary, nor the proposed Consti
tutional amendment, require it. These do
give to the negro the right of suffrage, but
they do not confer upon him the additional
and higher right of eligibility to office.—
Such is the argument of Joseph E. Brown—
thus he argues in an address to the Atlanta
Convention; and in this address, he de
clared that if the Convention should go be
yond the requirements of Congress, and give
to the negro the right of holding office, that
he would oppose the ratification of the Con
stitution, which the Convention was then
framing. Hence it was, the Convention
struck from the report of the Committee on
Franchise, that section, which expressly de-,
clared the negro eligible to office; and hence
it was that Joseph E. Brown, and his disciples
did, on various occasions, in public addresses,
during the recent campaign, and he more re-,
cently at Chicago, declared that the negro
could not hold office in Georgia, under the
new Constitution. •
By such assurances, many good men were,
no doubt, induced to vote for the Constitu
tion, who would otherwise have voted
against it.
To these men, who were influenced by
such assurances, made by the ex-Governor
and his coadjutors, and indeed to tbe whole
people of Georgia, to whom these assurances
were given, ex-Gov. Brown is obligated to
contest the ,f qualification” of every negro.,
who has been elected to office in Georgia.—
Will he doit? Every consideration of honor,
justice and consistency require of him this
service.—Mobile Advertiser.
Coffee as a loafer.
Our friend of the Monroe Advertiser, who
says something good every week, has the fol
lowing upon Cuffee as a loafer :
For instance, Cuffee weuld fall below medi
ocrity as a statesman—though the odds are
that h<T would make a model Congressman.
As a husband and father, he is indifferently
bad, and as a Christian we are bound to say
he is careless. But if you wish to see the native
genius of tho race crop ont, set Cuffee to
doing nothing. The amount of energy and
perseverance which he displays in doing it is
wonderful. He is perfectly at home in this
occupation, and follows it up with a certain
suaviter in modo (so to speak) that is posi
tively charming in this child of nature. He
ix a professional loafer, in short, exceiling in
this regard every other person of every other
race.
His manner of doing nothing is perfectly
artistic; it is his instinct, his nature, his forte.
In his rollicking humor, he laughs to scorn
the cool axioms of Benny Franklin. Ralph
the Raven might choke himself with his cheap
platitudes ere Cuffee heeded them. “Early
to rise” indeed 1 Not if he knows himself.—
Freedom that means work is no freedom at
all, argues this sable philosopher. He re
sembles Diogones in one important particu
lar : he goes in rags. There is only a slight
difference between Cuffee and Plato; the lat
ter preached immortality, and the former
practices immorality. So much for Cuffee.
He is a vagabond and he is free. We hope
lie is able to live at it, but we have our doubts.
There are probably five millions of these pro
fessional vagabonds in the South. The next
century will doubtless find them in pace.
Tbe Negro Disturbances at Washington.
The riotous and murderous conduct of the
blacks at Washington after tlie charter elec
tion had resu IteiLin-aJteiJiBSl victory may
vAll alarm tbe’country. It matters but‘little -
whether the first blow, which was the proxi
mate, accidental cause of the riot, was struck
by a white or by a black hand. All accounts
seem to agree, however, that an inoffensive
white man, a soldier, was the first victim of
negro violence. Cat across the ribs with- a
razor.' he died in a short time. Another
white man was killed by a negro, who cut
him across the wrist with a razor, severing
an artery.
The house of a conservative judge of elec
tion was entered and gutted by a negro
mob, which was prevented only by the
strategy of a policeman from demolishing
the office of the National Intelligencer. Res
taurants were stoned, forcibly entered and
robbed. The windows of other buildings
were broken, and the wife of a police officer
was struck on the shoulder by one of the
missiles. Throughout the city a large num
ber of negroes were arrested, most of whom
were found to be armed with muskets, clubs
and pistols, but, as if indicating tbe savage
ferocity of the infuriated blacks, their favor
ite weapon was found to be the razor.
What strikes us, however, as a still more
horrible detail is the incendiary speech ad
dressed to the negro mob by Mr. Forney.—
Our correspondent, in his letter which we
published yesterday, states that tho ex-Secre-
tary of the Senate told his mob that there
were two regiments of Lee’s rebel army in the
city with hostile intent against the colored
people.
No language can be too strong in reproba
tion of such a direct appeal to the worst pas
sions of an ignorant and excitable race. Its
tendency to provoke dangerous, if not fatal,
collisions between whites and blacks is inev
itable. Yet this is the tendency of the entire
policy of the Jacobin leaders of the dominant
Radical party.
What Charles Lamb would have classed
among the imperfect sympathies between the
two races these blind leaders of the blind arc
trying their utmost to convert into cruel an
tipathies. An infinity of painful consequen
ces must ensue, culminating, if not providen
tially cheeked, in a repetition on a grander
scale of the horrors of the St. Domingo mas
sacre.
We firmly believe that both the former
slaveholders of tho South and their emanci
pated slaves would gradully have adopted
themselves to their new relation to each other
reaping mutual advantages from it, if fanati
cal intermeddlers had not wickedly sown the
seeds of a dreadful conflict of races. The first
fruits of this conflict are visible in the recent
deplorable scenes at Washington. A full
harvest of destruction will be the final and
terrible result.—New TorTc Herald.
The Republican Party DaguerreotypeUby a j
Radical and “Loyal” Pen.
From tho New York ''devolution."}
Republicans elected Andrew Johnson for
party success; they impeached him for party
success; and since the sceptre of power came
into their hands, they have worked for party
success rather than the nation’s life.
While they have deceived the people with
the cry of constitutional amendments, loyal
ty, negro suffrage, impeachment, they have
shown themselves disloyal to vile grand prin
ciples ot our government, by their attempts
to drag down the Federal Constitution to
their low platform; to force negro suffrage
on the South while repudiating it in the
Northern States; and after proving the Pres
ident guilty of high crimes and misdemean
ors, strangling impeachment with their own
hands.
And now the handwriting on the wall warns
them that they are “weighed in the balance
and found wanting.” The Republican party
stands to-day with its ranks broken, divi
ded, distracted,; blasted, and the scepter of
power has passed from it forever. But this
is no cause of sorrow, for the sooner this party
is scattered to. the four winds of heaven, the
sooner will the scales fall tram the eyes of the
people, and they will see that their leaders
have been but blind leaders of the blind.
Jeremy Bentham says, “the people cannot
be too distrustful of their rulers.” When
the American people learn that men and
parties are nothing unless based on principle,
and that whether under a Republican or
Democratic dynasty, we have the same re
sults. they will awake to the responsibility
of self-government.
As we turn over tlie pages of history we
can see how other nations, groaning under
taxation, ignorance and poverty, have been
deluded, blinded and destroyed, without
dreaming that we, ourselves, are to-day the
thoughtless victims of selfish and crazy rulers
who think only of their own aggrandizement.
Just as Rome, with fetes and feasts with holi
days and deadly combats between man and
beasts, with gladiatorial exhibitions in crow
ded amphitheatres, ' turned the people’s
thought from their wrongs—so do our rulers
to-day, with caucuses, conventions, cam
paigns, impeachment trials and the coarse
brutality ot the press and politicians amuse
the people, degrade the public taste, aud
destroy the virtue of tlie nation.
Unthinking leaders inflame the North
against rebeldom, and damn every man who
dares: put in a plea.for justice and mercy to
the South, with the unmeaning name of “cop
perhead.” To rouse the peoples wrath they
point them to the bones of their brave sires
and sons bleaching on all those Southern
plains, forgetting that with their own hands
they built that sepulchre where our "brave
dead now sleep. The chain that held the
black boy in tlie everglades of Florida and
the slave girl in a New Orleans market was
fastened round their neck by New England's
sons and daughters. Through our avarice
and selfishness the land of orange groves and
flowers lies bleeding and desolate to-day.—•
Blame not tbe South, bat oar own constitu
tions, creeds and codes. -
But while we ended with the sword a
slavery of brute force, and overturned the
Southern oligarchy, by cunning legislation
we bave substituted another form ot slavery,
in our own system of finance. In our nation
al debt and taxation, we have placed the
whole labor of the country at the mercy of a
monied aristocracy of banks, bondholders
and land monopolists. Having just escaped
from the yoke of 400,000 slaveholders, we are
about to bow our necks to the yoke of 400,-
000 bondholders; Flushed wAii .

Atlanta Prisoners from Columbus.
Mr. S. A. Bacon writes as follow to the
C.olumbus Sun:
hum Bedell, Cliff Grimes, Dud Chipley and
Dr. Ihirkscey arc confined in seperato cells,
and no communication with them. This
morning I called in company with Capt. Dan
Callahan, upon Lieut. Hosmer, who readily
granted me permission to carry out such
things as were needed for the comfort of the
boys: such as towels, bed clothes, paper, pens,
etc., which were soon collected by Messrs.
Redwine & Fox, Rhode Hill, Bill Carroll,
Reub Shorter, Col. Irwin, and myself. Car-
roll and myself, upon reaching the barracks,
were politely escorted to the prison by Maj.
Von Blucher and Lieut. QuintOD, and saw
the articles carried to tho cells. Maj. Ed
wards and •'Dr. Johnson had carried some
articles to Chipley just before our arrival.—
The boys arc well, and did not need anything
else at present.
The sympathies of the entire community
are with them, and every effort to alleviate
their condition will be made. Iam in hopes
that upon General Meade’s return, we will
be allowed to see the prisoners.
"We were permitted to see Joe Clarke, (col’d)
and as he was also a prisoner, an outfit was
given to him. It will bo several days before
the trial commences.
And now in conclusion, let me state that
in conversation with Lieut. Hosmer this morn
ing, ho denied most positively having any
thing to do with the examination of wit
nesses in Columbus, and appeared to feel hurt
that such charges should he made against
him as appeared in your paper yesterday
morning. He says \ our informant was en
tirely mistaken; and his conduct towards
me this day shows that he sympathizes with
our friends now in durance, and is willing to
do all in his power to alleviate their condi
tion.
Female Suffrage in England.—A de
termined effort was recently made in Man
chester to enforce the right of women to
vote, claimed under Disraeli’s reform bill on
the ground that the word “ man” in the bill
included “ woman,” according to the rule of
interpreting an act. Mis Lydia Becker, and
others waited on the Board of Overseers, to
request them Co place on the registry of voters
all women*who had paid their rates under
the provisions of the reform act of 1807.
Miss Becker made a speech, and asserted that
7,000 women in Manchester alone paid poor
rates. In addition, a petition lately in favor
of woman suffrage received 21,757 signatures,
which included some notable names. At the
head of the list stood Mrs. Somerville and
Miss Florence Nightingale.
Contracts Payable in Coin.—The Sen.
ate has passed the following bill:
“Be it enacted, &c., That any contract
hereafter made specifically payable in coin
shall be legal and valid, and may be enforced
according to its terms, anything in the sevc
ral nets relating to United States notes to the
contrary notwithstanding.”

THE AlAXUH.
From the Savannah Neics and Herald.}
The alarm, like a “ fire-bell at midnight,”
is sounding in the ears of the American peo
ple, and from every quarter of the land we
have unmistakable assurances that the friends
of liberty and of republican government are
rallying to the rescue.
“The time has come,” says Chief Justice
Chase, the head of the Judiciary, “ for all
who love their country to band together
against the JacobiDS.”
“ It is time,” reiterates the Boston Post, the
organ of the Massachusetts Democracy, “ it
is time for those opposed to the Jacobins to
be organizing for the contest in November.
In one month our candidates for the two
highest national offices will be nominated,
and the Democracy and Conservatives should
be ready to commence the campaign the mo
ment the standard-bearers are announced
The duties will bo arduous,but success will
reward their faithful performance. The abuse
of power by the ruling party has aroused
the people to a sense of tlieir danger—the
peril of the Government—and inspired them
with a resolution to evince their capacity for
self-gcvernment by placingauthority in hands
worthy of exercising it. The disgraceful
■wrangling in Congress—tho gross invasion
of personal rights—the insolent tyranny of
the majority and total disregard of national
interests in seeking the gratification of low,
personal antipathies, have become too evi
dent and intolerable to be patiently borne,
and will soon receive such rebuke as will
stand as a warning to all fnthre demagogues

rpHESE DIFFERENT MEDICINES REPRESENT
-A the most recent medical discoveries, founded on
e principles of Chemistry and therapeutics. They
must not be confounded with secret or quack medi
cines. as their names sufficiently indicate their com
position; a circumstance which has caused them to be
appreciated and prescribed by tho faculty in tho
whole world. They widely differ from those numer
ous medicines advertised in tho publio papers as able
to euro every possible disease, as they are applicable
only to but a very few complaints. Tho most strings
ent laws exist, in France, with regard to tho sale of
medical preparations, and only those, which have un-^
dergone an examination by the Academy of Medicine,
and have been provod efficacious, cither in tho Hospi
tals, or in tho practice of the first medical men, are
authorized by the Goverment. This fact must bo
guarantee, for the excellency of Mess. Grimaults ct

of, they will bo discussed on tho principles of the po
litical party of which tho Review is tbe acknowledged
ergan. Tho great majority, however, of the articles
In ail these Reviews are addressed to tho world in gen
eral, and not to party. The Tory reads tho Edinburgh
Review for its literature and science, omitting or not
its political portions, according to tho humor of the
moment; and is not regarded as any the less, a Tory
bccauso a Whig periodical. And so with tho others.
Even the reader of tho Westminster would not con
sider that he forfeited his fame as an advocate of free-
thought by subscribing to the more orthodox >iorth
British. , _
We therefore present our publications to men of ail
parties, as a common literary ground on which they
may meet; and though wo cannot aver that the theo-
' rian, tho lawyer, the physician, or any learned or
entific man, will have all his wants satisfied in his
particular department, yet he will undoubtedly ac
quire a very correct idea of what is going on in all those
branches of human knowledge unconnected with his
own province, which ho has no time to study in de
tail, But to which it it very important for every man
of education to possess some general ideas.

PREPARE HIS
RHEUMATIC POWDERS .
FOR SALE.
Tho unprecedented success of this Medicine in tho
cure of of this disease is best attested by the following
CERTIFICATES;
I do hereby certify that after suffering for thirty-
threo years, with tho most excruciating pain from
Chronic Rheumatism, and finding no permanent relief
from any of the many prescriptions given by different
physicians, I am now entirely well, not only of Rheu
matism itself, but likewiso of its effects. This euro
was effected by a preparation styled “Lincho’s Anti-
Rheumatio Powders.” Of these Powders I took two
dozen, and have not had any symptoms of my old
pains for three years. Tho effect upon mo was like
mngic. Within three days after I had taken tho first
powder, my pains disappeared, and I have been en
tirely clear of them up to tho present time.
To all suffering from Rheumatism I do heartily re
commend thc-e Powder.-', confidently believing th;it
you have only to give them a trial to secure a lasting
euro. Most respectfully, . JOHN LYNCH.
