Oar politicians do not agree in their opinions oh this subject. Scrtne predict that there will not be ijrore-than four ballots. "If Arthur Jlilt! Blaine are to be beaten," they say, ,;'tl^work"rau3t be done on the second or third baiiofc, for unless there shaH be in one of those ballots a formidable inovemenf toward some other hi an, one" of these two leaders will surely . secure the nomination by drawing v<?tes from the other and from Logan and Edmunds.77 Un tne otner nana, f those who believe that Arthur's men' will stand by him and that Blaine's men will not desert their favorite say that this will be" the longest cquveuV Son on record. Tfeev are probably in error. THE COLORED CONTINGENT. The early appearance ot a tew colort^delegatcs from the South has ex-:, 'cited'strai.ire comments. The Arthur -for.

Starting with the i\ecepted feet tbat Logan cannot hope to be nominated for President, they ; conclode thai.he \vocld transfer his supporters to Blaine'in return for the Tatter's help to the nomination for Vice-President, or, failing in that, for the office of Secretary of War under the Blaine Administration. The authors of this pretty-theefryiprofess to believe that bait of this kind has been <?tifc tn t.hf? Tfliivois' Senator bv Blaine's managers. They add that Illinois has so many ambitions citizens who would like to succeed Logan in the Senate that he would have a hard iund uncertain struggle to be re-elected and,.therefore, he would be willing to consider the question of another position after next.March. ' 'Senator Sherman's presence in the alleged alliance Is accounted for by the^ititical gossips by slating him for his old place at the head of the Treas- ' ury Department. The Senator, they sav. loves to wield power ai d in fluence, and has not been gratified in this respect by the Arthur administration. He is represented as tired of an administration which does not rely upon hini for guidance, and is therefore in a proper frame of mind to treat with men who promise better things. The earnest efforts which the Sherman men are making, with hi?. consent and help, to induce delegates to ; give him their support itg' -against " Blaine, Arthur, or' any other- candidate, are not calculated" to create a belief that the Senator has locked arms with the man from Maine. Sherman ?e <if wort... >*?siv?fciallv. amotio" , Southern delegates, and reports of accessions to his ranks are frequent, and- lie is- steadily going to the front among the dark horses, ih.the opinion" of many close observers in Washington. * A delegation .of the Senator's friends left here to-day to intercept snch of the Southern delegates as go . to Chicago without calling at the capital. They will meet these delegates at various points, travel on the same' trains with them to Chicago, and will * 1 ' endeavor propeny to impress mem with the desirability of nominating Sherman before they are approached by the wire-pullers in Chicago. " ; A Blaine estimate of the first ballot at the convention, which is being circulated to-night, gives the Maine statesman 377 votes. Virginia is excluded from the list, because of the doubt as ' to which delegation will be admitted, and Vermont, New Hampshire, Alabama^ Louisiana, Arkansas "and Mississippi are put down as not likely to give "Blaine any votes. The accuracy of these figures is emphatically denied by the Arthur henchmen, who sneer at the claitn of 57 votes for Blaine in the Southern States not named above. In the list Blaine is given 80 from New York,> 46 from Pennsylvania,^ from Connecticut, 6 from- Massachusetts, 80 from Ohio, 2 from Illinois, 2*6 :from Iowa and 18 from Michigan. Blaine Seems Bent on Winning: With a Whoop. Chicago. June 1.?To-day was not prolific of results in the preiiminafy work ofthe cocain? National Republican Convention. The Blaine men made more demonstration than others, paying visits in entire delegations, and moving their headquarters' from the two small rooms heretofore occupied to the large ladies' ordinary at the , Grand Pacific Hotel. Colorado's foil ; df>]p_yation arrived in a bodv this after noon, openly declaring for Blaine. They bore attheir head as they moved from the depot a live eagle, which was deposited in- the Blaine headquarters.

The Illinois delegation were quiescent to-day, with the exception of an early morning: visit of a 'portion of them to the California headquarters. Col. Clarke Carr headed the Illinois party, and after presenting them to the Californians made a short" address, in which he stated that while Illinois sympathized with California in her local (Chinese) issue she was following thjin thft LIIV^ iVi IUUVO VI w man whose cause California had espoused in the present contest. " He closed by expressing the belief that California would see it to her interest to come over and join Illinois before the present fight ended. Col. Morrow replied on behalf of his State. He said, that the slope people had come withtheir wives and children and*were provisioned for a siege. They proposed to remain on the ground and fight it oat to the finish, whether their leader conquered or fell.' A prominent member of the Vermont delegation, who has been here two days, assured an Associated Press correspondent to-day ' that Edmunds was fast gaining- groiind-iimd would have at least one hundred votes on the first ballot.

It is said that a warrant-is out for.his arrest. Tlifs afternoon Colonel Buruside was formally arrested upon a warrant charging him with the- embezzlement of $15,000 and was brought into Police Court for examination. After a short consultation between his counsel, Tore "Wilson, and the D; strict Attorney, 'the latter stated that the defendent would waive examination and give bail.for his apper.ranee befnrp thp nriminal Court. and that the Government would ask for bail to be 'fixed at $45,000, the'amount of the defalcation. Wilson contended that the bail demanded was excessive, bnt after some argument the Court decided on the araouut named by the District Attorney and said that counsel could petition the Criminal Court for an abatement.

CERTAINTY OF A BOLT IN CASE OF BLAINE'S NOMINATION AT CHICAGO* Carl Schurz's Views on the General Situation-He Says the Democrats WiH Be Defeated, "Old Ticket" or some Other Ttrlfpt. New York, May 26.?"It seems to mc from latest indications," said Mr. Carl Sclmrz to a Herald reporter yesterday, "that the Blaine bubble has nearly burst. I now think it quite improbable that he can be nominated at Chicago. The reaction from an overestimate of his strength has already ' set in, The power he was supposed to wield in Pennsylvania two weeks ago is slowly disappearing and a rrumbir of Western props are criv'i?<y wav. The inflation oeriod is over &nd and we are getting- down now to a solrd basis," r uJlow do:YOU account for this?" "Chiefly because the sagacity of the party has been coming (o the front. It is.now being recognized as an actual fact that - the nomination of Blaine would be disastrously obnoxious to quite a large and strong element-in the party which it would be simply -folly to ignore in a probably close canvass. The State of New York, which is conceded to be of vital importance to each side, contains 12,000 school districts. Suppose now that in each one of these districts it could be shown that one republican would refuse to vote for Blaine if lie were nominated. In a battle ground State this would be a hazardous risk to run. But the average is so far above this, as reported to the independent Clu,b that it would be idle to count on pla<3ng New York in the republican-column.- This point" is derided by "the Blaine organs, but; they will find out the melancholy truth when it is too late. STRENGTH OF THE INDEPENDENTS,., "What regular organization "Have 41iU >" "None whatever outside of New York, and ^Massachusetts, bat it is; determined and vigorous, and their opposition in these" States would be quite enough to* insure defeat. Then it must be considered that any1 in-' flnence of tins kind radiating from Massachusetts would be certain to have its weight in New* Hampshire, where the tepublican majority is never large, while the influence from New York would, to an equal extent, pervade Connecticut and.New Jersey, We have the most reliable advices, from Massachusetts about the growth; of an independent' sentiment In every direction over the State. The simple truth is that party shackles are loosely , worn by a vast number of so-calted republicans,. whose prejudices fead' tliom intrt tKo lvnnhliAfti) finmn if tJVfcVt find-the.right sort -of a. commander and the right principles, of welfare, bnt who care so little for the regular stock slogans of the republican party that they arc ready at any minute to fight under another flag in order to!: obtain what they demand in the shape of reform..:? ! V"' ~ "These men will all argue that if the republican party in Conve ntio'n assembled can-, nominate for the Presidency a man.of BJaine's antecedents it is no longer safe to be intrusted with the control of the government. It should alsb be borne in mind that a democratic yiclory in this campaign vnll'.not only mean the defeat, ;bdt*tfao' ntter disintegration of " what is now known as-'the. republican part)'. The ranks one broken by such a national disaster it Will be impossible to reform them." - ^-i AU'isiy; j "Will the independents take any farther step before' the Chicago Convention 7* ':"No%. It would be decidedly bad fnefp. Ail of us who are in this move nieut sincerely desire to co-operate i for the success of the. republican party. We have no 'special canjjidate to urge or suggest.

We, on the other hand, haye made it our business to study the case Of the enemy, ana ate aTarmed. at theoutlook. We meant our recent manifesto as a respectfnl notice^as to our independent convictions, which ttffc. delegates miggit use as partsofthe situation.

' it! THE DEMOCRATS' "WILY POLICT. "There is another important circumstance," Mr. Schnrz continued, "which does not seem to strike tne iijaine cohorts with sufBcient force. I refer to the "warmth and unanimity of the democratic press'in urging fhe cause of Blaine. They ring the changes on his popularity and the poetic justice of. his - claims. What- ages all this' meaur to: wy ralitnial mind? Wliyr they, want h'ira nominated, because i they believe he won Id be the easiest candidate to unhorse."
