CHASE MEETING IN PHILADELPHIA. On "Wednesday, a meeting of citizens of all political parties throuhout tho country, favorable to the nomination of Chief Justice Chase as President of the United States by the Democratic Convention, which meets in New York on the 4th of July next, was held at the Continental Hotel, in Philadelphia. The ^l^re says: On motion of John Welsh, Hon. Frederick P. Stanton, of Virginia, was called to the Chair. A committee of three was appointed to select permanent officers, who reported for President, Hon. William S. Price, of Pennsylvania; "Vice-Presidents, John J. Cisco, New York; Chas. D. Free? man, Pennsylvania; Enoch T. Car? son, Ohio; William Prescott Smith, Maryland; Hon. Frederick P. Stan? ton, Virginia; John Paul, M. D., Illinois; Amasa Sprague, Rhode Is? land; T. H. Sweetzcr, Massachusetts; Hon. James R. Doolittle, Wisconsin ; General Arah L. Jeffries, District Columbia; Edward T. Latham, New Jersey; Hon. James Dixon, Connec? ticut; General S. W. Crawford, Ken? tucky. Secretaries-John W. Fra? zier, Philadelphia; William Howard, Philadelphia; John J. O'Brien, New York; William J. Hawley, New York; John Oberly, Illinois. A committee of nine was appointed on resolutions, consisting of Charles D. Freeman, David "W. Sellers, Alexander Long, Frederick P. Stanton William How? ard, J. P. Tucker, Edward T. Latham, Frederick Sehley and Wil? liam S. Hawley, who reported the following, which wore adopted unani? mously : "Whereas, wo as citizens of the several States, irrespective of our political affiliation, believe that the learning, experience, ability and purity of Chief Justice Chnso aro an assurance of an administration con? formable to thc Constitution, if he should bo chosen President; and that wo believe, if presented to the peo? ple of our country for their suffrage, they would cordially unite upon him as one in whom they might hope for a happy reconciliation of the people of all the States under tho just and benign provisions of our Federal Constitution ; therefore "Resolved, That we dosi re Chief Justice Chase for the next President of tho Union, as the man best en? titled to our confidence and support, und that a committee of 101) be ap? pointed to promote his nomination by the Democratic Convention, which meets in New York on the4th of July next." After which, a committee of 100, with Charles G. Hulpineus Chairman, was appointed to convey the proceed? ings to tho Democratic Convention in New York. Tho meeting thou ad? journed. THE NEW YORK WOULD.-Tho World, in an elaborate leader, on Monday last, surprised its leaders'by an ingenious argument in favor of a change of base by tho Democratic party, abandoning in a moment the doctrines for which it has so ably contended since the close of thc war. It acknowledges the validity of the Reconstruction Acts, and nccepts ne? gro sv.ffr;;g? ad au accomplished fact. It labors to show that the Democra? tic party, even if it carry tho next Presidential election, aud secure a majority in both Houses of Congress, cannot consistently, with its funda? mental doctrines, interiore with ne? gro suffrage in tho States, as estab? lished by the Reconstruction Acts. The World seems to have forgotten, what it has so often maintained here? tofore, that the constitutionality of these Acts has never been acknow? ledged by either the Executive or the Supremo Court; und that the entire Democratic party has, during the past fifteen months, patiently looked for tho action of the Supreme Court in regard to this matter, never for a moment doubting, that when this tribunal shall bo at liberty to give a decision, that decision will bo averse to tho action of the POth and 40th Congress, on the subject of recon? struction.-CliarlcstoH Mercury. Tho following advertisement ap? pears in a Loudon paper: To medci cal men-A lady of title will give ?100 a year to have a favorite spaniel dog taken cure of whilst sho is abroad. A preference given where there aro no children or other ani? mals. References required. Address by letter iu first instance-. Attempted Rescue? A collision between the civil au? thorities and thc negroes took place at Orangeburg, on Thursday, but owing to the firmness shown by the officer assailed, and by tho citizens, no general outbreak occurred. During the afternoon, the Sheriff sent his deputy into the interior to arrest three negro men, against whom warrants had been issued for stealing goods from a store in Orange burg. The deputy found the ne? groes, arrested them, and *. out on his return. On his way li?, was met by a crowd of negroes, most of whom he knew to be from the vicinity of the place in which ho had made his arrests. As he rode up, one of the negroes came forward and demanded that the prisoners bc released. The Sheriff asked him very quietly what was his authority? The negro drew a pistol, cocked it, presented it at tho Sheriff, and said, "This is my au? thority." Without further parley, the Sheriff fired, wounding tho ne? gro mortally. The rest of tho ne? groes made a rush forward, and the prisoners made their escape; but the Sheriff stood his ground like a mau, and did not attempt to make his escape until he had fired every barrol of his pistol, wounding one negro slightly and a second very badly. When the Sheriff reached Orange burg he collected his posse and re? turned. At the place where the at? tack had been made, he found the negro first wounded in the caro of a colored man. Both were urrested and left in charge of a citizen named Izlar, while tho Sheriff went on and recaptured his escaped prisoners. Soon after the Sheriff left air. ]/dar's, ono of tho negroes in Mr. Izlar's custody, asked permission to go to tho spring for water. Mr. Izlar went with him, und as they approach? ed the spriug the negro seized a stick and struck at Mr. Izlar. The blow was parried, and tho two had a des? perate fight, in which tho rammer of Mr. Izlar's pistol wns broken off. The negro, seeing ho could do no better, broke away and ran off. Mr. Izlar halted him three times and then fired, wounding him in the neck and body. When tho news of these events reached tho town there was great ex? citement, and tho citizens did not hesitate to charge tho negro "Sena? tor" elect, Ii. P. Randolph, with hav? ing instigated the attempted rescue. Randolph had around him a largo number of negroes, whom he then told to go homo and h? quiet. Thoro was soiuo fear of a rising in thc night, and arrangements were made that tho citizens should assemble when a gun was fired or tho boll tolled. Late nt night a rapid dis? charge of fire-arms was heard. Thc citizens tumbled out on all sides, but found that it was ouly the entree of Herr Leugel into tho lion's den dur? ing the performance of Ames' circus. Yesterday troops were sent for to Columbia, and a detachment of in? fantry arrived at Orangebnrg, and was marched to tho Sheriff's office. All was then quiet, and tho danger appeared to bo past.

THE PEABODY MEDAL-.-The medal ordered hy Congress to testify na? tional approval of Mr. Peabody's munificent generosity in aid of edu? cation in the South has been com? pleted, and is in the temporary cus? tody of the State Department. It is a work of great beauty. The front dise presents a faithful portrait, in bas-relief, of Mr. Peabody, and is supported on the right by a figure of benevolence leaning affectionately over the medal, and having in her right hand a wreath of laurel. On tho left, in which direction thc head of the philanthropist is lookiug, rises the Palmetto, very beautifully pro traced, at tho foot of which aro two children, indicating, respectively, tho white and colored races, in graceful attitudes of thankfulness.

Tho Haytian dollar is now said to bo worth only two cents in coin. THE SPECTRUM.-One of the most | interesting discoveries of modern sci? ence is the invention of the Spec? troscope-interesting in itself, and of | incalculable advantage in tho assist? ance it affords to other branches of scientific investigation. By means of its refracting sprisms, it is enabled to separate and exhibit the spectra | or rays of light which different sub? stances reflect, each in its own char? acteristic system of bands and lines of color. By this means the atmos? pheres pf tho sun and many of the planets have been analyzed, and it has been discovered of what material those bodies are composed. By its use the human blood can be analyzed and recognized under all conditions, whether in the secretions of disease, or in dried stains upon other materials. The coloring mattor of the blood shows a spectrum en? tirely different from other substances, which in general appearance and co? lor, are undistinguishable from it, even by tho most powerful micro? scope. Tho spectroscope will detect the one thousandth of a grain of dried human blood on the door, or on tho blade of a knife, or in any other condition, and thus becomes of immense importance to the science of medicine, and also, of no small value to that of the law. j Yorkvilie Enquirer. Tho military gazette of Austria, tho Camarade, argues that Austria must arm, because North Germany maiutuins a force of 1,028,000 mon; | South Germany, 200,000; France, 1,350,000; Prussia, 1,466,000; Italy, 480,000. Austria needs, therefore, about 1,053,000. This terrible array of figures is a rather striking com? mentary on tho Christian civilization of the nineteenth century. It would astonish Tamerlane, or Zenghis, or I any other of the Pagan homicides of | former times. Hamburg is so be? wildered by the spectacle that it tries to joke, just as people laugh hysteri? cally in fright.
