FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 19,1868 Interview With Mr. Pendleton. A BAFFLED COKRF.SFONDF.NT. The New York Herald recently sent a correspondent to Cincinnati to have a “ talk ” with Mr. Pendleton. He sent the following account of his reception and of the information elicited: “ Mr. Pendleton?” “That's my name, sir. Walk in. Take a seat.” The Inquiry was mine. The response was that of Mr. George ll' Pendleton, De mocratic candidate for the Vice-Presiden cy in 1864, and an aspirant for the Demo cratic nomination tor President at the New York Convention next month. He was seated at his desk, and had suspended wri ting a letter to answer the inquiry which I addressed him from the threshold of his law office, a plainly but suostantlaliy fur nished apartment, about twelve by twelve in size, sit lated in a Jauncy court of law chambers on Third street, In this city. — Waving me to the proffered seat with a ge nial smile which made me fed at home with him, on the Instant he wished to know what he could do for me.— The brief interval which had elapsed to this moment was sufficient to give me an opportunity of perceiving that he is a man of about forty-two years of age and possessed of a manner which readily accounts for his personal popularity. His face seemed not at all strange ; it was even familiar, though I had never seen him before. Tue person who makes his ac quaintance hereafter will recognize the trath of this observation; his face is one of the kind that haunts the mind with the im pression that it has been somewhere seen before, though for what reason the specta tor will be at a loss to conceive. In height 'Mr. PetKlletoji is a little above the itfedturti, the excess U-rlig unnoticeablc from a very slight tendency to embonpoint. Not that he is stout or portly. The best description of him would be to say that he is very hearty, with a full, robust figure. He is propor tionately well built, and by the ladies would be deemed a handsome inan ; dark (though not black) hair covers a large, finely formed head; mustache and wuiskers, worn in the prevailing style (Hie latter slightly sprinkled with gray, both inclined to be curly, and with a fineness and silki ness indicative of elegance of temperament.,) surround a face which seems to perpetually wear the winning smile above referred to. A suit of black and dark blue completes the. picture of the candidate whom the West is pressing so strenuously for the Democratic nomination. Despite tile public notoriety which Mr. Pendletou has achieved he is steadily and earnestly devoted to the business of his pro fession, and it is a wonder how he has con trived to get time from his private duties to transact the public business which lias made him so famous in the West. He re sides in the country outside the city of Cin cinnati, coming in every morning to his office and desk, where, or in court, lie labors industriously all day until the hour for his return to his suburban home. No doubt a great deal ofhis success Is due to the efforts of his friends, whose number Is legion, and whom he has united to himself by the pecn liar magnetism of his character. What lie has been quick to conceive in politics they have been as quick to execute in his interest They are bound to Him by a tie which it would seem impossible to sever. Their de votion to him is of the warmest kind, and he has become their leader without any ap parent efforts on his part. The details ol any policy of his origination they have de lighted to carry out. The understanding between man and party is of the most har monious kind. I give these particulars con cerning Mr. Pendleton because he is not known At the East, and especially as he will doubtless prove one of the most prominent candidates in the convention of July 4. I made known my business without any circumlocution. The smile of interest changed to one of surprise. That a person should travel nedriy nine hundred miles tc hold a conversation with him was some thing a little out of the routine of matters coming within the range of his daily obser vatlon. Had I been a politician even from New York to make a bargain regarding the nomination it would have been surpris ing enough, particularly as the object might be attained just as well by letter. He had no objection—none whatever, he said—to talk with me upon political topics, but “did I want to print the conversation?” 1 explained that such was ray wish, as thi natural sequence of the interview and as a part of the business which had brought me to see him. Had Mr. Pendleton been a tortoise I have no doubt that at this moment Be would have rendered himself totally invisible to me excepting his shell. As he is not a tor toise, such a piece of zoological strategy was impossible. He did something ap proaching to it in the human way, how ever. The smile of welcome, which had changed to one of surprise, as I told ray mission, had now changed to one of star tled apprehension. “ Asa friend, sir, I shall be happy to con verse freely with you on any and all politi cal subjects, but I will not do so for tin sake of having it printed. These conversa tlons between correspondents and public men are very ridiculous—very ridiculous.’ And move him from this determination J could not. It was in vain that I plied every argument I was capable of. He was unalterable in his decision. “No. sir, I could not think of it Such a thing would do no good. Not that I have anything to conceal. My sentiments are well known. There is nothing I have to conceal- I will tell you everything in a private way, If you promise not to print it.’ Os coarse such a promise was out of the question. Not despairing yet, I exerted every artifice within my capacity, and em Sri-Ulcckln Constitutionalist ployed every weapon in my reportorial store house to induce a change of his de cision. It was of no avail. “ I have no objection to telling you all I think,” he continued, “ but I do not wish to have a conversation with three or four hundred thousand readers of the Herald before breakfast.” The old smile came back to his face, and the conversation turned upon the weather or some equally interesting and important topic. This record of the interview, while serving to show Mr. Pendleton’s sensitive ness and his deep-rooted conviction of the ridiculousness! of holding a conversation on political subjects for the benefit of the community, will also illustrate the difficul ties under which a correspondent some times labors, and will convince the read ers that a correspondent’s duties are not al ways coleur de rose. (From the St. Louie Abendzeitung, June 10. Remarkable Cowardice of the Grant Press of St. Louis- It Is a strange fact that those St. Louis papers that have chosen a soldier for their candidate display such uncommon coward ice. New proof for this assertion is furnish ed by their conduct in regard to the protest of the Israelitic citizens against Grant. On the 6th of June, the protest appeared in the columns of the St. Louis Ahendzei iung. On the 7th it was copied bp the De mocratic journals, but on the Bth neither the Democrat nor the Westliche Post seemed to be conscious of the fact, that such a pro test, signed by more than two hundred re spected inhabitants and business men of St. Louis, had been published, both the Grant organs affecting to be deaf, dumb and blind. On the 9th of June, the rumor spread that the Democrat had taken notice, of the mat ter. True, three days had already elapsed before it reached this point, but that paper was to be excused, the thing having affect ed its constitution too much. The Demo crat “felt like that amphibium,” described in the German student’s song: •* 1 liri e days the tr< g was sick, ’tie true. To l eaveu thanks : now sicckcs anew.” Aye ! It smoked its pipe again, but the weed was ol a miserable kind. Half hid den away in a corner of its columns, the Democrat published a brief communication, by which an alleged “ Hebrew ” expressed his regrets to see h.s fellow-believers ma king so much fuss about Grant’s order,and protested against the Jews opposing Grant ns a class, tiiough Grant had proscribed the Jews as a class ! The Democrat had no edi torial remarks to make. It displayed its usual cowardice. The Westliche Post has been sick four days, and to-day brought its medicine from the drug store of the Democrat. The nice remedy consisted In a translation of that communication, to which the Post (an hcro ical effort for its cowardice) added the fol lowing : “ Yesterday’s Democrat contains a pro test, signed ‘ Hebrew,’ which we publisii in literal translation, without any commen tary, the protest speaking for itsell.” How nice ! The Post, being too lazy and too cowardly to write an editorial about the matter, contents itself to copy the Demo crat's communication without the. sligiitCSt commetytary. To believe, however, that by such pro ceeding the Grant press had readied the cli max ot their cowardice would be a mistake. To a reply to that communication admission was refused by the Democrat, and the reply, as well as another communication, had to be published in the Republican. Whetc, is hidden the sense of honor in such a press ? We were certainly right when we said, quite recently : It, has til e inclinations of the criminal, but minus his courage. British ('omm Tits upon N adoleon’s Past and Present Position —The Policy of Eng land. | From tile London Times M:ry 20. The Emperor Napoleon well understood the duties of his position when he pro claimed that not a cannon should be tired m Europe without the consent of the Tuile rics. Asa keeper of the European peace the French Monarch justly felt that he was omnipotent. The Crimean expedition, as well as the campaign of Lombardy, had they been undertaken solely in fulfillment of a pacific mission—had they been wars truly waged for an idea—would have won him the blessings of humanity. Had he satisfied the world of his uprightness and disinterestedness, “ the mere lifting of his little finger” would have been sufficient to prevent both the invasion of Denmark and the Austro-Prussian war in Germany.— Unfortunately, however, he did not come out of Italy with clean hands, and he had all but sold his neutrality in Germany by bis premature demands for territorial com pensation. The would-be mediator and ar biter appeared not untainted with selfish partisanship. The volunteer policeman was no safer than the suspicious characters lie had set himself to watch and control.— Indeed, since the formation of a United Italy and of a Confederated Germany has smoothed over the greatest difficulties with which the treaties of 1815 has tram meled modern diplomacy, the greatest danger to European tranquility lias arisen from the so-called “susceptibilities” of tie French people, and irom the hesitation md inconsistency of their Imperial ruler. Hie necessity for a return to the principles of 1815 is, therefore, all the more urgently felt; a return to the ideas of that European compact which made the independence of each State the object of the common solici tude, and denounced any attempt at a breach of the peace against one as tanta mount to a declaration of war against all. Where the high preponderance, and, as it were, the protectorate of one Power falls short, there the co-operation of great and small should step in. No one mn be omnip otent against ail. There always was, and is, and must be a majority of nations and Governments in Europe interested in the preservation of peace, and it can only be from improvidence and want of organiza tion that the many nllow themselves to be disquieted by the threatening preparations or the secret designs of the few. An insa tiable promoter- of “ bloated, armaments" map •ome to be considered as great a public enemy is a •perpetual quarrel-seeker. The author of the anonymous pamphlet reckons on the neutrality of England as a matter of course. He might with great confidence rely on England being invariably found on the side of the peace-lovers and peace-makers. Eng land is at this very moment giving proofs of a disinterestedness which appeared fab ulous to most of her neighbors. She is spontaneously retreating from a c >untry which an easy, though not inglorious vic tory, had laid at her discretion. Many years have not passed since she paid her homage to the principle of nationality by withdraw ing from the protectorate of the lonian Is lands. Even more recently she testified her readiness to accede to tlie doctrine of non intervention, by abandoning all reversion ary claims to the Grown of Hanover. But by these very acts, by which England has given such tangible proofs that she re nounces all Ideas of conquest and aggran dizement, she has also proved what store she sets by the blessings of peace.
