SALMON 1'. CIT ASK.
As I was on my wav to th,e New
York Democratic Convention, I
stopped in Washington a dav or
two, fc the purpose ot seeing the
President and others. Mr. Long,
ot Ohio, kindly invited me to visit
the Chief Justice, and have a Conversation
with him in reference to
his political views an-, opinions.?
The name of Chiet Justice Chase
had been prominently brought be
tore the public us a candidate tor
the Presidential nomination by the
New York Convention. Governor
Ron hum. ? ot Smith f1a.r..is..??
and Col. Jones, of Kentucky, nc
companied us. The Chief Justice
received us very kindly, mid we
discussed the politics of the day
for some time. In reference to
himself, he said, that he had always
adhered to the Democratic princi
ples^and a wan States Rights man.
I mentioned that. I remembered,
on one occasion, he and Mr. Barnwell
Rhett, of South Carolina,
voted together in the Senato on a
very important States Rights qncstio..
as to the rendition of fugitive
slaves. lie replied, that, on that
occasion vaft or expressing his views
in reference to tlio fugitive slave
hill, Mr. Rliett came over to his
seat, and said. I agree with you in
the views you have expressed, they
are the true State* Rights doctrine
The Chief Justice contended, in
that debate, tfiat Congress had no
constitutional power to pass the
fugitive 6lave hill, but that the
constitution required the Stares to
do so. I remember thinking at
the time, that Mr. Chase knew
very well the Northern States
would pass no law on the subject,
and that it Congress did not, no
fugitives would be sutrendered. I
thought, likewise, that Mr. Rhett
entertained the same opinion, and
that this refusal on the part of the
Northern States would greatly increase
the excitement at the South,
and prove the way to disunion.?
The Southern States could sav the
North has broken the Federal
compact, and we are no longer
bound by it. In thinking this. I
may have done both, the Chief Justice
and Mr. Rliett, injustice. But
iiaicn uj inu ucuiocruiic piwty.
Hut it would Ihj stiango indeed, u?
1 wrote General Hampton, to see
the Democratic party going into
the camp ot the enemy to select a
General to Command their force*
in battle. Mf. Cliaae would have
been the noibinee ??# the Radical
partv, but tor the military reputation
of General Grant
There was a strong feeling in
the convention to bring forward
I tho Chief Justice, and lie would
1 have been nominated by the New
Yofk delegation'* had iiutTIoiatto
Seyinore's name been presented,
[wLett it was^by tlm Ohio dwlega
uon. ui? nomination would have
been a hiMer pill tor Sou therm
Dei not ots to wekioine, as lie had
Always been the fiercest of Abolitionists,
and one ot' the bitterest
opponents of tho South.
WJMpIKUJ SCOTT liA.NCOCK.
I saw General Hancock, tor the
first time, in the ladies* parlor, at
tho Metropolitan Hotel, in Wash
ington,jets I was on my wpy.to the
Democratic Gonvgption,Jn New
York. I admired very much his
appearance and manners. He is
a tall, stout gentleman, with a fine
face and head. lie left his card
for me at the office of the hotel,
and I called to see him next,
day, in company with several oth
ers, and amongst them, General
Bonham, whose Adjutant^ General
Hancock had-hnon in M?*ioon
war. lie talked v.ery freely about
the Presidential nomination, and
seemed very willing to be selected
as the standard bearer of the Democracy.
lie has all the frank,,
itess of a soldier, with the polish
ami cordiality of-a well bred gen*
tleman. lie is . a man ot great
good sense and ability, and 1
' should say possesses a good heart.
IIis administration in Louisiana
and Texas, rendered hfin very
popular with alio Democracy everywhere
North, as well as South
IIis conduct was in striking contrast
with, that of all the military
satraps, who had Jpeen appointed
in ttie Southern States, lie show
ed, in every,act of lii^ government,
a love of Republican principles,
and a devotion to civil and consti-,
tutional liberty. His letters, in
detence of his conduct, and his instructions
to civil officers, are admirable.
lie has a very happy
way of expressing himself* in his
letters and writings.
South Carolina, and most of the
C il n. ? -?
omuuern cmhics, casi their votes
tor him after President Johnson
was withdrawn. Independent of
the high appreciation of his wise,
just and liberal administration, the
South wished to show the world,
that 6he could honor and respect
a brave General, who, in the discharge
of his duty, had waged war
against her, and after the war was
over, had been disposed to treat
her with the magnanimity ot an
honorable victor.
After the convention adjourned,
General llancock came on to New
1 ork, where 1 had the pleasure of
meeting him again, lie seemed a
little dispirited at his defeat, but
very grateful to the South lor her
support. I witnessed the introduct
ion between him and General
Wade Hampton. They fought a
terrible battle in Virginia, where
Hampton had captured twenty
three hundred of his troops, and
would have captured him, if he
had been allowed to pursue his vie
tory. Immediately on their inlro
duct ion, General llancock said to
Hampton, u we have met before.
General." "Yes, 6ir," replied
Hampton. " we met once before in
Virginia, I know." They commenced
lighting over their- battle
again, and had quite an interest
it was rather strange to see two
Senators the antipodes of each oth
er on slavery, voting together on
60 vital a question.
In reference to the right of suffrage,
the Chief Justice said it was
for the States to regulate 'his mat
ter, and that Congress had no dower
to legislate on the subject, lie
thought there wonhl oe no difficulty
in controlling the negro vote
in the Southern States. " Property
and brains,"said he, "will always
contiol labor." I thought to mysejt,
why are you, then, in favor of
negroes voting, when you admit
they mayYbe always controlled by
their employers? It is nothing
more or less, than giving additional
sutlrage to property and brains,
I replied to the Chief Justice, that
carpet-baggers from the North had
the negroes under their control in
the Southern States, and ihat they
would not he influenced by their
former owners and true friends.
lib said this could not continue
long. The carpet baggers would
have to leave the country pretty
booh, or become identified with the
people in interest and feeling.
I was very much impressed
with the Chief Justice as a'innn of
talents ai d ability. lie is derlain
!y one of the ablest men in A erica.
lie is a noble looking gentleman,
and his manners are very
p!ea.-ant and agreeable. Ue con
verses extremely well. I thought
he seet/ted very willing tobenomw..
.1... ?
ing conversation.
In the convention, whilst the
States were ballotting, I expressed
some surprise to Col. Patterson, of
Phiadel]>hra, tiiat Pennsylvania
did not vote for General Hancock,
n citizen of that State. He replied
that Hancock was horn in Pennsvlvatiia.
sew early in life to West
Point, there graduated, and then
(Married in Missouri, and had not
been a citizen of Pennsylvania
since. I enquired it he was of
the Massachusetts*family of Hancock's.
Ho said, 44 No, the General's
father was a foundling, and
named Benjamin Franklin Ilan
cock, at a time when Revolntiona
ry names were very popular ull
over the country."
General Hancock is in the prime
of life, and may ye', live to be
President. His letter* after the
nomination, to a friend in Missouri,
who informed him that it was
reported he would not support the
nomination, is a manly and admirable
one. TlteGeneral says in this
letter, that he was thought of only
on oecoun-t of his principles, and
that it \vonM' be-strange-indeed I1
for him to abandon his principles,
because another had been selected
to cayry them out. The record of
General Hancock, in the history of
the w^'o is equal to that of any of1
his distinguished compeers in the
Federal army.

Mr Editor : Knowing you to be a friend i
to the development of our agricultural re I
sources, and the readers of the Enterpri?e to 1
be all good farmers ami gardens ra, let me I
say to you, lhai I have a bunch of Mustard
that iu-:asiired two feet and ten inches j
across on the las* of March, and by this j
time no doubt, goes three feet?a good t
yard stick. This Mustard was " found j
growing in my garden," and if ooi.e of your "]
readers can pro luce a larger one. I will ,
have llie seed put up, provided I can get t
somebody lo count them, and sold for less t
than ten cants apiece. It has yellow blooms ,
in the morning and yellow blooms at, night,
and for the want of a more appropriate
name, I will call it the Yard Stick Mustard. (
I cali this pretty good Mustard lor our pine
ridges^ and is evidence that there is no
need for emigrating to Texas, when such
development can be made. In the meantime,
if larger Mustard Can ba produced for
the time of year, my aeed will not be for
sale PINE RIDGE.
