Karlzen is still in custody at Christiana, waiting his trial. The Norwegian captain made the statement In the most positive mariner, and it wss generally credited. THE COMING CAMPAIGN. It is understood to be the purpose of the managers of the Democratic party in Ohio to place Mr. Pendleton in the next National Democratic Convention in the capacity of Senatorial delegate. He is to be the great leader of the jamboree.—[Ciu clnnati Cammerciai (Inti.) The New York Herald notices that some of the Western Republican papers suggest “Morton and Blaine” as the ticket, and says: Mr. Blaine's friends ought to warn him that that is about as far as he can get on that line. If he chaoses the *bloody shirt' policy he must play second to Sena tor Mortoo, and he must make up his mind to give all his own strength to the Morton side ; for if that policy L to rule i.i the Cincinnati Convention it will take Morton and Blaine both to beat General Grant. Somewhere out in the wilds of Minne sota, there is a paper published, rejoicing in the title of “The Centennial Third-Termer.” In his salutatory the editor shrieks: “Cry ns down small fry newspaperdom and belligerent critics! We mean business! We have buckled on the armor of a free American citizen, aud a a re say what we think Is right And if any man desires to interview ns, we are ready, it is pure, unadulteiated third-term —Centennial and Grant; and if we swim, we will carry it with as ; if we sink, the bubble that marks our resting place on the bottom of the sea of dif fer will be pregnant with utterings of it.” “Six sweetatora” scan the political liori- aoa and report the result of their observation to the Boston Journal, as follows: “Governor Hendricks seems to have the best chance for the nomination, because be can best compromise the radical differ anoea which divide the Democratic party. If Ohio could unite with Senator Thurman he would stand about an equal chance. Either of them could ob tain more votes in the convention, from North and Month together, than any other candidate yet named. Senator Bayard appears to stand third on the list of probabilities. If well supported at first, he will receive a large support in the South, many scattering votes in the West, and divide the Pacific coast States with Governor Tilden We conclude that Governor Tildtn cannot be nominated, since if be should receive a majority of the votes he would be defeated by the two- thi rda rule. The bitter oppo sition to him in the West and South on the finance question, and because of the dictatorial manners of his supporters, render it almost certain that be can not receive two-thirds of the convention. Giving him the whole of New England, New York, New Jersey, and all ef the Pacific coast States, he would have still less than one third of the convention. By combining with the Southern States it might be pos sible to obtain a majority, but the chances are against even this and we can not find the least jus tfflcatiou for hope that he could obtain two-third*, owing to the uncompromising hostility which would not cease even with hie nomination. The New York Tribune makes itself merry over the religions question In our enrren politics. It says: “ Blaine Is now fairly launched a*a Presidential candidate. With Grant tannins as a Methodist and BlaineaaaPnsbyterian, we may Consider the denommalioual canvass fairly under way. Will anybody lead ns oat now a Baptist?

Leaves of absence were granted Messrs state - hat the privates of the League dis obeyed orders and voted differently. ; The last point which the gentleman makes against me, is unworthy of him. He states that I have only been in my seat six days since the session of the Legisla ture. Now, 1 assert that the gentleman well knows that I have been compelled from sickness to be absent from my teat— and knowing this fact, thus to attempt to make it appear that I was negligent, is cer tainly unworthy to say the least—and the noble people of Jackson county will be ashamed of this unfair and unjust act of their representative. Mr. Potts says “My idea has always been that when the peo ple elect a man to the Legislature, they expect him to stay about the Capitol and look after their business.” I do not controvert this opinion of the gente- man, but will state a greater truth for his study and digestion. My opinion has always been that when the people elect a Legislator, they expect him to correctly represent their sentiments, and to speak them in the House of Representatives— the proper place for their utterance, and not to publish in newspapers what he would have said for them, if he had bad the opportunity. In conclusion, I will put to Mr. Potts this query, which he can answer when we re turn home: Why did he not deliver his speech, when he was recognized by the sjieaker for the purpose, instead of taking his seat without a work, and afterwards complain about the want of opportunity 7 I thank you, Mr. Editor, for your valua ble space, and promise that I shall not again trespass upon yonr kindness.

On motion of Mr. Henderson the House then adjourned until 3 o’clock this after noon MR. DUKE AGAIN. Mr. He 4'omes Back at His Colleagnc, Potts. To the Editor of the Herald : I am greatly surprised that my commu nication in Wednesday’s Herald in reply to tiie unspoken speech of my colleague, the Hon. J. M. Potts, should have drawn from him such an acrimonious rejoinder. My. article was merely intended, without reflecting upon the character of the gen- ' ieman, to place the people whom I have .he honor to represent, in their true light before the country on the subject of a Con stitutional Convention. Mr. Potts stated in the aole address which he did not have an opportunity of delivering in the House of Representatives, that the people of Jackson county were in favor of convention at present—and that the ques tion was made an issue in his election and that he was the mouth-piece of eleven hundred and one whites, who called with one voice for a convention. These were the only two statements tiie gentleman made in the eloquent speech, with which he vainly (?) sought an occasion to elec trify the House. What; a loss was there my countrymen, you who have never lis tened to the burning words as they flow ft om the inspired lips of tiie golden tongued orator of the mountains, can never know Your loss is his eternal gain. Because I knew these statements to be utterly incorrect, and did not reflect the sen timents of the people of Jackson county I deemed it to be my duty to correct them Tiie gentleman, notwithstanding a brilliant imagination, failed to answer either one of my assertions. He knew they were facts, and as he does not deal in facts, hut fan cies, lie could not successfully refute them Of the eleven hundred and one witnesses, he fails to bring forward one. Tiie honor able gentleman, like a great many other men, when caught and cornered, flies the track, and attempts to change the issue. He by such conduct very readily admits his own weakness, but just to honor him I will follow him in his new field, and see if he has at all bettered his condition The word “consistency” seems to trouble the gentleman. I did not say or insinuate that he was inconsistent. I said, and re iterate, that he was incorrect. Oh! it the same old feeling of human nat ure crop ping out. It is the guilty conscience which makes him defend when no one attacks. But since the gentleman has himself in troduced the subject, let us look into his record on this question of “consistency.” The gentleman states that his people were ali in favor of a convention. Then why did be vote to take the question from them altogether? He states that his people favor the convention now. Then why did hevote to postpone tiie question until next year 7 Oh, consistency! thou art indeed a precious jewel, and how it sparkles and glitterson the handsome brow of my colleague. In reply to the gentla- mrtii's insinuation that I did not vote for General Gordon for Governor, and against the present Constitution, because at that time I belonged to the Loyal League, have merely this to say. I do not deny that I did belong to this organization In fact I was Vice President, and as such did vote and labor for the election of Gor don and against the Constitution. In jus tice to the gentleman, however, I will CENTENNIAL SCHEDULES. KEMNESAW ROUTE. WESTERN AND ATLANTIC RAILROAD. Kennraaw Route.
