Cor.—""Which answer finplies a support of Satnuel J. Tilden should the Convention renomi- nate bliin?” Kelly—"No; Ispoat not only for mysolf, but for hundreds—nay, thousands—of the truvst and best Democrats !n the State of New York. We will nover support Mr. Tilden at tho polls, We come hero representing a vital question, and shall contest it before tho Committee on Credentials, 1f defeated there, wo shall contest it in the Convention; if defeated there by the machinationsof Tilden's frionds, I say, again, wo will CONTEST IT AT THE POLLS. Thore were two Conventions at Symicuse, ono of which wo clalm was regular, honest, and in accordauce with the customs of tho Democratio party.

Juno ‘18.—Ths Suprema Court, bya vote of 3. to 2, rendorod a docision this morning declaring tho adoption bf. tho con- stitutional amendmonts invalid. As tho nows of ‘the docision flashed’ from moiith. to mouth, mon, frrespective of party, burned with indigna- ton that auch a result could be concealed under so thin a cover of law. Yut tht ‘wns nota surprise, It bas been, the ‘first that State offictals werd opposed amendments, and that those who bad ‘tte car of the Court would exert tholr influoace to secure such u decision. A reporter of tho News says that while he was in tho Supreme Court library this morning talking with James H. Rico, Bec- retary of the Stute Central Committee, and two other. Democrats, Judgo Worden entered tho room and, addrussing Bico, sald. “Well, Jim, I guess you bad better telegraph’ to the boys that we overthrow, the amendments this, morning by-avoteof 3 to %. .Thoy will, be glad to know aboutit." “As soon as Rico could recover from the sonsation;” continucs tho. roparter, ‘ho~ quickly shut up the Judgo with tho ‘ information” A REPORTER PRESENT." . Tho Judgo sald uo more in rogard.ta thd caso, but, turning tmmediately to the roporter, asked: “Aro you on the Sentinel?” “No, alr, I’m not on the Sentinel, but on the ewe, and havo Just been Inoking ufter the case.” The’ answer. was Very unploagant to the entire party, and the News mun was immediately snd carnestly so- Melted to auy nothing about the deolajon. ‘This incidout shows that the political offect of it was upon the mind of at least ono Judgo of the Court. Tho decision comes, tov, at a tima to by most helpful to ex-Gov, Handrioks at Cin- clunnti, By tneaus of it Indiana will still hold its election In Ovtobor, nn additional! reason to bo urged why Gov, fHendricks should’ be nom- inuted.
