The Presidency in West Virginia.

--A meeting in West Virginia has declared for Chase. One of the resolutions says: ‘ "We believe either Hon. S. P. Chase, Major Gen. Fremont, Major Gen. Butler, Major Gen. Banks, or Major Gen. Grant to be far preferable as a Presidential candidate to Mr. Lincoln; but our Judgment is in favor of a civilian rather than a soldier."’ Another of the series declares explicitly for Chase.
