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 . Special Notices.

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.” 52fThe importance of one vote is pro verbial.

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 1868.

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 Co. medicines. X> R.. X.ER.AS’ (Doctor of Medicine.)

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.

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.
