There id an exciting race between the vari? ous aspirante for the Democratic nomination for Governor of Pennsylvania. The leading candidates are George W. Casa, Asa Packer and General Hancock. The friends of the first two are anxious to keep Hancock ont of the field, tbecause lt is believed he will be the most popular man before the nominating' con? vention. They have asked the friends of Gen? eral Hancock to haye him write a letter ia, ad? vance declining the nomination on the ground that bc trishes tc rctaia Ino place in l?e regu? lar army. Hancock's friends refuse to do this, believing as they do that he stands a good chanoe not only of being nominated but oleo ted. A Washington letter to the Baltimore Gazette says: The intention to bring forward General Hau* cook as a candidate for the nomination for Governor of Pennsylvania, in the Democratic Convention of that State, has given rise to much discussion here concerning the next Presidency. It is understood th it General Grant desires a re-election. Boutwell'a friends1 are scheming with a view to securing the Re? publican nomination for him, and lt is said that Bout well and Delano are a'oting in con? cert in the matter, and making their appoint? ments accordingly. ; Witta. an army of officials, subservient to their wishes, they can un? doubtedly wield a vast influence. Chief Jus? tice Chase has been accused of intriguing, during lus recent visit ?-outb. to secure a nomination for the Presidency, but he bas de? nied tho charge. There is a strong fooling among Dem ocr tic pohticiai s boro m favor of the nomiuation of General HanoocK. Hts elec? tion as Governor or Penney!" ima, if be con? sents to run, is considered certain, and it is believed thai at the end of his gubernatorial term he would be installed in the White House by an overwhelming m < jon tv over any man the Radicals cai bring out. "Hid New Orleans record proves bim to be a statesman as well as a soldier, and no better Democratic platf rm could be desired thau his well-known letter to Governor Pease, of Texas. One thing is cer? ta m. it one may judge from the feeling here, there will be no more conventions held in New York City, and a tew Mew York politicians will not be Buffered to ruin the prospecta of the Democracy, as they did in '68. The New Kork World is also denounced here as unworthy of the confidence of the D irty. THE li LACK DOUGLASS. The Kow Among the Washington Ty? pos- * he Radical Faction and their Opponents. A Washington letter of Monday, to tbe Bair timbre Sun, Bays: The printers employed at the government printing office, and Who compose a maj irity ox Columbia Tvyto7ra.phioal Union, No 101. have issued an address u> the National Union, whioh is intended to- counteract, tho address agreed upon by the city printers. Thia address pro? tests against the taking away of the charter. They say the city printers haye manifested much enmity towards the printers employed at the government printing office, and tba' this animosity armes in part from political dif? ferences.! They th?n charge those opposing the government printers with having served in thc rebel army or sympathized with the rebel-' lion, and thus try- to make political capital and create a feeling against the city printers. They then give a history of the D -ngh-tsa imbroglio, and deny most emphatically that he is on avow? ed rat, or that the term rat is in any manne. applicable to bis case. They admit that if the vote bad been taken on Douglass' admission at the June meeting he would have boen rejected, and give that as an excuse for carrying the ad? journment at that time. The address says that the rej action of any number of applicants for membership in the Typographical Union ia a small matter, bot that Douglass' rejection would be at the s i ori? fice of a great principle, underlying: the fouu dations of the government. They say they ask no especial favors of the National Onion, but demand and insist that there shall bo no interference in the exercise of their constitu? tional rights and privileges. The address says: 4'If, however, the officers of the National Union shall so far outrage law, courtesy, and com? mon usage, aa to act upon the suggest io a of the minority of bur members, and declare bur charter forfeited, and grant a new charter to the said minority, we shall be driven to the ne csasi y of appealing to our fellow-craftsmen throughout the country to withdraw from the : National Union, and to organise a new National Typographical Society, which shall be founded upon the principles of justice to all men, re? gardless of race or color." Accompanying. the address- are letters from the Denver Union, and from parties for whom Douglass bas worked. The address exoites the derision of tb*e*"<mtv printers, who do nob be? lieve it will have the least effect upon the Na? tional Union, lt contains too much which looks like an attempt to prejudice them on political grounds, and besides tho threat of the form? ation of another,Union* founded, as they say, "upon principles of justice to all men," amounts to .nothing, as it was demonstrated at the Albany Conv -ntion that ' the printers from the North were far more bitter toward the admission of Douglass than were tbe del? egates from this District and further South. THE CHINESE AS LABORERS. What Old Ben Wade Thinks about Them-The Men tor the South, Senator Wade, we see, expresses himself a little astonished with the Chinese laborers on the Pacific, and particularly with the novelties of thia labor, r ' i* . , Mr. Wade states that he had visited many factories in various parts ot the world, but bad never seen any class of men as weil adapted for tbe m an tl fue ture of woollen fabrics as the Chinese, They aro patient, ing?nions and re? liable, and have their minda to tittle attracted by outside matters that they appear to ba as mechanical in their'movement?'as the machin? ery t.iev attend. Both . tbe. senator and bis party thought the people of California were standing ?fetheirowl? light by;rejecting this very useful labor. He thought other States in the Union, as soon as (bey understand the oharaoter of this intelligent, patient and indus? trious race, would expend minions of dollars m obtaining them. He expressed the remark that before ten years would pass the people of California would be framing laws to prevent the deportation or the Chinase, with far more zeal than they now sought to prevent them 'coming here. He stated that he did not con? sider the snhjeot of their i nmigration to this State as of a local character, suob as its Letris? la tu re could control. It was a national question, which since the emancipation of the negroes and the g roving desire to extend^honie manufactures, was of more importance than almost any other subject, be ouuso these men came bore to perform labor almost exclusively, while the immigra-ta fiom ether coon tries continued as laborer* only long enough to obtain means to procure land or set up in business for themselves. He stat ed that be had appointed to meet the heads of the six Chinese companies' in this city on friday next>, when be would endeavor to obtain certain in? formation from them direct. Ho thought if California would adopt loe national currency, and treat tbe Chinese liberally, to a few years lt might become tbe greatest manufacturing State tn the Union. Eastern capitalists, man? ufacturers and artisans preferred the currency of ibo Union to the cumbersome mon y ot Cal? ifornia. He thought California committed a great error in not accepting the national cur? rency wbe^ first im reduced--su opinion which was endoised oy all th > company present, sev< ?rai of whom were prominent citizens of San Francisco.

W Til ti C MINESE ZN AMERICA. Interview Between tine Committee of Wat ya ?nd Mean? ?md JProaninent Chl mese Merchants ot ?mn. KraneSaco, In San Francisco, Jone 25, Senator s Wade and Conkling and the House Committee ol Ways and Heans met with the representatives of the t x Chinese companies of the city and several of the leading merchants and bankers. There was an interchange of compliment and sentiment, and one of the Chinese represen . stives, Fung Tang, delivered the following speech : Gentlemen-It gives me, and all Chinese merobantsof Ban Francisco, great pleasure to meet honorable senators and members of Con? gress ot tbs? United-States. We are made very happy by seeing you here, for we can explain to yon our wishes and tho wants of our people. Our government took pleasure in appointing an American Ambtasador to make treaties with foreign powers, and we are satisfied with your treaty with our nation, but want the just protection it promises. America ls probably better known to the Chinese people, than any other country, because ma ly of oar people have lived here, and written home faithful ac? counts of the country. China is a very old na? tion, bot our people have learned many new things from the Americans. The population of China is very large, aud intercourse between our countries will be very intimate, if we have just laws'to protect us. Ton probably know that we have Very rich merchants and bankers in China, but we cannot advise them to risk their capital here when their agent cannot testify In your courts, for Uko your own capitalists they wish to know that their property is protected sod secure .to them before parting with it. Much gold and silver is hoarded m China which might be used.profitably here, if the Chinese felt Suie we had full and proper protection. Wo mer? chants have tried to bo honest and fair, in our dealings With your mer shanta here, and have paid our debts to. Americans -as ? scrupulously as to our own people. The manager J of some of your largest Han Francisco firms, engaged in trade with China, who have trusted us for hundreds of thousands of doiiajra at a time without security, are here to prove the;truth of wu at 1 say. We have in trounced your gram and other American produce into China, arid , labored to estsblish a trade, which, if properly 1 encouraged, must prove of great value to this country. "We-tf^ ? law donb i ling the Government pay to > our line of China t-tearners, and oblige them'to ruo each way twice a month; for,we feel certain that the cost , will be sm ?ll, when compared to the benefits j your country will receive.. Captain Eldridge ! will tell you how much of their freight and passage luonoy is paid by our people now-and should vou increase your number of trips, we will doall in our power to support this line, and thus insure ns. success. At the banquet given in this city before the sailing of the first American steamship fo Cuina, 1 made a speech full of congratulations on the commencement of this great enterprise. All Chinese felt very happy',, because we thought it would make our nations bettor ac? quainted, and we hoped yon would, by knowing us, learn to like us, and be willing to protect ns from some evils we now Buffer, an i which we think unjust. We think -your special tax, collected only from Chinese miners, is not ac? cording to our treaty with your government. We are willing to pay taxes cheerfully when taxed equally with 'Others. We also think the tax of five dollars collected from each China? man for coming into-this Stato ia not right, if this IB a free count rv. Cut most of all we feel the want ofprotection to life and prop? erty when courts of jnsuee retuee our testi? mony, and thus leave us defenceless and un? able to obtain just oe tor ourselves, and often for others. The Chinese who come to Califor? nia to labor are poor men, so our companies, which are formed to assist them, ?nd not to oppress them, advance money to bring them herc; but no slavery exists at all anions oar people, for every man receives wages tor hia labor and works voluntarily. Some people m California have said we had slaves here, but it is not true,,> We make men contribute from their ' earnings enough to pay their debts, if money bas been advanced td bring them to this country. China can furnish you good, faithful, industrious men to cultivate rice and cotton in your South eird States if, lou wish to employ them; dr to rai so tea and silk in California, if you will make haws to protect and make them feel safe. ??<? insure them equal Justice with other nations, according to their treaty with your government. Aa? people, we wish to db right and treat all people well. If yon will converse with my count* y i men here tordav, i they will answer any ques? tions you wish to ask, and we hone, on y oui return to Washington, you will speak favorablj of na to tho United *tt*tes Government. Foi all Chinese in California and the Chinese mer chants of San Francisco, we welcome yo? here, and thank you kindly for thinking of ul and houoriDg us with a visit. -We-have receiv? ed much Kindness from mady excellent peopU in California, all of which we appreciate, and for whioh we gratefully render our thanks. -*,f. ?rn? ?. ? THE CHANCES , EOE, CUBA. The Seisaves of Mern ?md Monitions is New York-Thc Policy or the Adm im? S stratton. A New York letter of Friday evening says : Still another filibuster tug boat, the "Chase,1 was captured in Long Island Sound and brough to the Brooklyn Navy Yard this morning. Be sides the crew, there were but few "troops" oi board but the United States Marshal learnint that tileir former companions, nuder cnn mane of Colonel Byan in person, had debarked a Gardiner's leland, he dispatched an armec cutter with instructions to capture them. The men on the tug desoribe Byan's men at behaving very badly on the island. Cows, hog! and sheep were slaughtered for their ?ubsia tenoe, without any compensation to the own era, and a quarrel having occurred arnon* themselves, three ot their number are said h have been killed, with several dangeroual; wounded. It remains to be seen, however whether these statement*are correct. o The aggrege to value of the munitions of wai and other property seized on thia expedition i estimated ai $150 003.

Senor Altero Dr. Bassora-the fermer Secretary of War o the Cuban Junta, and the latter ft contribute of funds to the expeditions-Were brought ove to Ludlow-street jail this evening. I may add, that leading Cubana here seem ti be taking a less hopeful view of the situation in the face of the moral certainty now'that n? further aid can be forwarded to the insurgent from the United States. They say ii that Byai regiment could have ,oeen lauded in Cuba, i would have been Worth inore to the cause thai five times the number at some future time. A Washington telegram saye : lt is ascertained from the best sonrcss nf in formation that the administration will not tali action looking to a recognition of the Cuba: insurgents. * First, it is questionable how far tho Execu tive may go in that direction without author! ty. from or co-operation? oj Congress; next there is a delicate^ question about commit tin our government, to ?propositions that ?ire m volved iu the controversy with the British dov cr?ment when the latter government may hav been premature in conceding belligerent right to tho Confederates: finaliv, it is ascertaine that the administration finds the most accep* ftblo solution of the difficulty in a propositio to the Spanish Government for too purchase 1 Cuba, and to that end our. minister, Genera Sickles is instructed to proceed at the earlie* practicable moment after bis arrival ia Mad ri i, to negotiate a treaty for tbe purchase c the Island of Cuba The income to the Sp itrish Government trot Cabs ls between Murty and forty millions, bt it ia certain that the expenses of warfare wit the Cubans will exe sed that amount per au num. It is therefore argued that tue spams Government will be disposed ?o get rsl of Out Sin m ?re reasonable terms' than ever bereu dre suggested, sud that our administrate (should take advantage of the opportunity thi presented, and by purchase on reasonab terms avoid a passible eoUistbh or unpleasai con'royeaxy with Spain, and at the same tm steer clear of the probable complications of ii teroational law involved in tho Alabama dam controversy with Euglami so tar as by ana og y these questions may ba .pphc&ble io tl recognition of belligerent rghta to Coban ii aurgente.

Tho Negro Postmaster of Macon Impli? cated In Circulating Counterfeit Money -Intereslinet Particulars. One of the lights of the Radical party in Georgia ia in a tight place. On Saturday morn? ing last, Turner, the negro postmaster of Ma? con, was arrested in connection with the circu? lation ot counterfeit bille on the Fourth Nation? al Bank of New Jejeey, stolen from the Treas? ury Department at Washington. Tho facts are as follows : On thc 19th. of last mouth, a mulatto woman, trom Hancock County, named Manan Harris, Btoppedtn thia oity on her way from Washing? ton, and succeeded in passing about $490 un the merchant s of Augusta in bills on the First National Bank of Jersey City, which had been stolen from the Treasury in Washington while unsigned, and the president's and cashier's signatures forged. On the Wednesday suc? ceeding Mr. Mullarky found thal the bills wore worthless, and, pur JU i mr tue woman to Atlan? ta, had her arrested. At the time of her ar? rest there was found on ber person $950 of the bad b.ilB and $467 of good currency. She baa ' since made a clean breast of tue whole trans? action. Bhe states that some time since she ? went North with a lady from Macon, whom she left soon after her arrival in Philadol Shia. Bhe said that she formerly knew H. M. 'urner intimately when they both lived in Hancock County, and meeting bim North the intimacy was resumed. She travelled a good deal between Washington and Philadelphia, and often saw Turner in the former etty. On a day between the first and the fifth oz Jone, Turner gave co her in Washington between $1600 and $170t) of this spurious currency which she had been passing, instructed her how to get rid of it, a id made her promise, to divide with him the goo l money sho received. Bhe then returned to Philadelphia, and from that time to the tenth was in constant corres? pondence with rurner ou the subject. Ou the tenth of the .LOU th she started to Georsria. She passed $100 of the money m Wilmington,, where she stopped several days; $100 at ahother place, and finally $150 in this city, as stated above. . After au examination, before United States Commissioner Smith, at which the woman still testified against Turner, a warrant , was issued for the arrest ot the latter, and th? authorities in Macon telegraphed to secure him. This warrant-wa? pJaaed in tue hand? o? Lieutenant Purcell and one ot the Deputy Uni<ed States Marshals, an 1 the party immediately left for Macon, arriving there on Saturday evening." The officers found Turner .seated in the post office, and at once arreste, i and handcuffed him. The sarde evening be was-placed in the cars, carried to Atlanta and placed in confine? ment m the military barracks. Turner seemed much dejected when arrested, and manifested a good deal of trepidation. The examination of the two prisoners com? menced on Monday morning in Atlanta before the United States Commissioner, but ?be pro? ceedings are as yet kept secret, aa other par? ties may be implicated Who hive not yet been arrested. The evidence against Turner is rep? resented to td of the strongest possible char? acter, and there in said to be no doubt that his guilt can be established. j ,. -? 11 mm ? ?, ? , j A EAST PRINCE.

Daring the ague season of 1865-0, I could not keep a sufficient stock on hand to supply my customers. In fact, your Bitters was aa staple as quinine. I learn that phy? sicians pres ribo it all over tho western country. Indeed, a' great many families thiak they are not aafe without your Invaluable tonic." . J. K.
