Mr. Springer, of Springfield, opposed the motion, and said : "Again, I am frank to say that I do not know whether Mr.1 Pendlctou is the " proper man to nominate or not. Aside funn the ques tion of his Unavailability in ?omo of the States, I have another quest ion that I would propound to him before I should favor his nomination for the Presidency.' I sliould want to know of Mr. PotfdleibW/'Wlielher, in the event of his constitutional election*, counting out the negro voters of the negro State governments of the South, he moans to be President, oven if he has to ho sworn in at homo, and fight his way to Washington at the head of an organize.! Democratic army ? j I fear it is coming to thu. The Radicals mean to count the negro vote* of ten negro governments, which have ???> niorlj right to ho counted than have an equal numbe of votes in Hayti or Liberia, in order to elec their man. If we are going to submit to thi outrage, wo may as well quit now. For i tel you we cauuot carry enough States at th North to overcome tho negro votes of th South. Hence I am for no man for Presidcn who is not willing. to stako hu property, hi life, his nil, for the cause; and if constitution I ally elected he willing to draw his sword, cal| the Democratic hosts to arms, and claim th| Presidential office at all hazards !

If wo moan 'business,' let u| understand ourselves, and act accordingly, child's play I want to bo counted out." ? i i, &r~4m' An interesting caso was ^concluded in thej District Court yesterday. It will bo remember ed that on the twelfth of December last a fire occurred on tho premises 345 King-street, then occupied by John Madden as a dry goods and shoo stove, the circumstances of.which sugges ted tho probability, of its being of an incondjnry origin. An examination was conducted.by M. II. Nathans, Esq., Chief of the Firo Depart ment, aided by ono or more members of tho Roard of Firo Masters, Lieutenant II end ricks, Chief of tho Dotcotivo force, and somo exports, tho result of which pointed the finger of suspicion at Madden, who was shortly after wards indicted by Attornoy-Gcncral Hay no for an attempt to. commit arson. This suspicion was strengthened by tho fact that Madden had Iuh stock of goods insured for an amount very much larger than its value, as appraised im mediately after the firo, and tho odditional cir cumstance that tho lire began beneath tho flooring of the store, and in a loonlity to which access could only bo obtained by teariug it up. Madden and his wifo wore indicted, upon the strength of these facts and suspicions, at' the January term of tho District Couat, but when tho caso was called he came into court, ^rdd represcntirig.tho abscuco of witnetsiea who were material to his defcuco, obtained a traverse and wua released upon giving a. bond of one thousand dollars for bis apr^irVauc? at j Ctoe tjrosonl, term with Messrs. James Oimtweli isttd jPrnrip Fpgnrtie ats sureties. . ' Whon the case was commenced on Thursday, it was ascertained that Maddon and his wife bad fied^ the Dlstriot, and wero, of course, beyond1 the jurisdiction of the Court. Tho Issue was tried howovcr, as r.gaiuot his sureties ond'the testimony fully established tho facts rcpreaeh* ted, nnd* lofmihatdd in the conviotion of ad den, but a verdict of acquittal as to his wife. Tho result is'that bts sureties are mrdcted >fivo hundred dollars each, and tho Company in which ho iuBurcd enjoys an exoneration for their liability for the amount of his policy. Courier 25th. '- ?
