Janax. Ee 22, 1868. —a UNION TICKET. FOR PRESIDENT, GENERAL ULYS3ES 8. GRANT. SPSS, Tue NEXT Presipext.—We ‘place at the head of our colamns theename of Ulysses 8. Grant, the next President of the United States. The Convention yesterday, by a Vote of 650, formally ratified a nomination which had already been made by the loyal masses of the country with a unanimity unparalleled in the history of party politics. The history of General Grant is fresh in the memories of the people, and no man could so well unite the loyal masses of every section of the country as he. We are confident that the news of his nomination will. be everywhere received with joy by those who wish . for the future welfare of the country. Spode & Cd, Hans & Co, and Dahl. gain & Go. Dan causdl great excite ment in Virginia City. That paper and the whole sidewalk in front, and men were seen leaving in every direction with arms full of clothing—same as though there was a big fire. A crowd of extra clerks were at work in the stores and watchmen had to be stationed to prevent thieves from carrying off goods. Some men bought two or three suits. If the war keeps on we expect to see every Piute in a new suit and every male inhabitant in broad cloth.”— The rush has just been about the same in this city and clothing can now be bought here cheaper than in San Francisco, THERE is a remarkable troupe of East India magicians at the Sydenham Palace, near London—six women and twelve men—who do astounding things with swords, bamboos, ropes, buffalo horns, balls, and things in general.— Also, at the Holborn Amphitheater, a Tue Sovursern Stratres.—Under the Congressional plan, except in a few points where the strong arm of the military could not protect, the people of the South have been protected in the free expression of their opinions, and as ® consequence a great revolution in sentiment has taken place.—. The pro-slavery confederate elements, no longer able to maintain the supremacy by force is gradually losing ground and more liberal ideas of government are beginning to prevail. The old ruling classes are making a hard fight, encouraged by the acts of the President, but proscription and oppression has not succeeded and the party of freedom are getting control of State organizations. Several of the States have already or ganized new State governments, to haa dab ataSeai ents 0o madeor lor al men and Congress will soon admit their representatives to sedis, These new Congressmen and Senators will enter the field under the banner: of Liberty and for the first time in years New England and South Carolina will work together in the same cause. The Democrats of the South, finding the sentiment of the States changing so rapidly are endeavoring to take the tide and have far outstripped their party friends of the North in their declaration of liberal sentiments. These changes in Democratic tactics are the best evidence of the revolution which is going on. The South is being reconstructed in sentiment and soon will be in entire harmony with the loyal North. This end accomplished, the complete Union of the country is attained. There will be no antagonistic interest or in. harmonious elements left, out of which digeord and civil war can come. United upon the broad basis of the principles enunciated in the Declaration of independence, the country will turn back to the teachings of the govern. ment founders, and a new era of ‘prosperity will dawn upon the land. The Southern States, possessing all the natural advantages that.they do, when freed from the curse, of slavery, will eon become as wealthy and prosperous es their Northern sisters. At the next miceting of the San Francisco Pioneer Association the question comes up for debate, whether persons may become members. who were in the State prior to its admission into the Union.

Cincinnati Gazette answers the question, “Who are the bondholders?” by pub lishing a list of all the private individuals holding United States securities in that city, with the amounts held by them respectively. The entire number is seven hundred and twenty-eight, of whom only ninety-four hold sums of over one thousand.dollars each, and only four over ten thousand each. The highest single amount is $17,420 belonging to the estate of A. Harkness.— Six hundred-and thirty persons hold: sums of less than one thousand dollars each. The names of a large number of these “bloated aristocrats” ‘indicate that they are of German and Irish extraction.
