New, chairman of tne republi- can state central committee of Indiana, left for New York this morning. Before leaving he | again expressed the utmost confidence tn the success of the republican ticket in that state, and gave some of his reasons, He says Indiana has heen thoroughly canvassed; that, the re | publicans have sion of lists of all the doubtful voters in every county and fn every | Young precinct, and that the campaign com- mittees, have furnished to these doubtful voters the kind of literature best calculated to secure republican votes. Moreover, Mr. New says that while the republican ficket is more popular perhaps than any that has been nominated for years, English is not at all popular. He thinks Uhat it would have been possible for Hendricks or McDonald to have carried the state on ac- count of their large personal popularity, but he considers it practically an established ‘fact already that English cannot carry tt. THE WAR AGainst GEN. Erra HUNTON has broken out again in the Sth congresstonal dis- trict of Virginia. For four terms Gen. Hunton has ably represented that district. Last year he had fora rival Chapman Neale, of Alexan- dria. The contest, though spirited, was con- ducted in good tem; al ton Was nominat would not again be a candidate. 80 far as Gen. Hunton 1s concerned he stands ready to abide by that promise, but his friends in the eighth district are quite anxious that he shall again be the nominee. To secure him the nomination they have already set actively to work, but without the co-operation of Gen. Hunton, who will take no part in the fight, one way or the other. The result of this is to stir up antazonisms ip Several countes among those who desire the bomination, and so fleree 1s the war upon as- Pirants tbat it is probable they will kill one another off, and Gen. Bunton wiil be re- turned. The record of Gen. Hunton as a public servant is procugscstty excellent. He is not only a fait! resentative of his people, but a good Iriend to the people of this District, who Would like to see him re-elected.

CHAIRMANSHIP OF THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE. While there is an apathetic feeling among the old machine leaders touching the chairmanship ofthe national republican committee, the re- verse is the case with the democrats. Senator Bernum, of Connecticut, has long been chatr- man Of the national democratic committee, and he §s not adverse to being continued at that pest. There will be a rivalry for the honor Unough, inasmuch as Senator Wallace, of Penn- sylvania, is being urged as Barnum’s successor. ‘Those who push Wallace to the front say that the Senator was an original Hancock man at Cimeinnati, and that he is the personal friend of the democratic nominee, Against the retention of Barnum, the argument fs used that he belon; to the Tilden wing of the party, and while he assumes to be “enthused” over the result at Cineinnati that he 1s not so heartily inaccord with the nominees as is Senator Wallace. UNHAPPY O10 MEN. ‘The Cincinnatt convention has, after al, left behind it several sores. Tilden, by betraying Payne as he did, has not stirred up the kindltest emotions in the breast of the Cleveland states- man, while away down in the other corner of Obio Thurman sulks because Payne was pushed at all, It having been to his (Thurman’s) detri- ment. He ts also grievously sore because the Vayne men slaughtered John G. Thompson and selected a Payne follower in his place as a mem- ber of the national democratic committee. Bishop, too, another of Ohio’s sons, was most unbgraciously snubbed, his own state refusing to second Iowa in placing him in nomtration for the vice presidency. Gen. Durbin Ward, of Ohio.{s also in the dumps because Ohio promisea to place him in nomination for the vice presi- dency, but did not. THE SORES IN INDIANA, too, are as grievious as those in Ohio, Hen- dricks thinks he was handicapped by McDon- ald, and McDonald thinks Hendricks instigated the newspaper attacks which were made upon him. While McDonald had an idea that he was a possibility for the first piace, he felt reasona- bly sure that the second would be dumped into his lap, Hence the fact that he was dropped tor English will not be calculated to add to his enthusiasm or zeal for the success of the ticket. ACHING HEARTS IN NEW YORK. In New York there are also aching hearts. After the services which Tilden has rendered the party and the money he has spent in its behalf, it{s not belleved he feels supremely contented. Political Notes. It is thought now that ff it had been general- ly known in advance how big Judge Field's bar’l was, and how easy the bung started, he would have had a much better show at Cincin- Bat. It seems to have been clearly a case of want of information. The Ion, Benjamin F. Marsh has been noml- nated for re-election to Congress by the repub- licans of the 10th district of Tilinois. Governor's Island {s a great democratic sum- mer resort this year. . Register Scofield, of the Treasury, opened the campalgn in western Pennsylvanta last ‘Thursday evening by a speech at Warren on “The Purposes of the Confederacy.” There are three candidates who want to suc- ceed Col, Jos, Blackburn as the Representative in Congress from the 7th Kentucky district. After the nomination of Hancock had been been made at Cincinnati, Senator Bayard’s friends on the ground telegraphed him “nothing has been done here which can fail to meet your cordial approval.” ‘The facts that Gen. Grant didn’t congratulate Garticld, and that so far Gen, Hancock hasn’t heard from Goy. Hendricks, are widely com- mented on. It is also noted that August Bel- mont, the manager of the Bayard boom, forgot to send a telegram to Governor's Island. The republicans of Boston are to ratify the Presidential nominations In Faneuil Hall on Wednesday evening, and the democrats in the same place on Thursday evening. Capt. A. S. McClure, editor of the Wooster Republican has been nominated for representa- tive in Congress by the republicans of the Isih district of Ohio, the Hon. James Monroe yolua- tarily retiring after ten years’ continuous ser- Vice. Capt. McClure fs a gallant soldier, a fo cible writer, an eloquent speaker and a clever fellow, who can carry iis district If any repub- lcan can, Gen. Hancock's campaign badge will be a shamrock-shaped emblem, made of red, white and blue silk. They say now that Col. Forney 13 beginning to fear he may have flopped too soon, An enthusiastic democratic ratification meet- ing was held at Martinsburg, W. Va., last even- ing, at which Hon. Charles J. Faulkner spoke and a Hancock and English club was formed. As THE Star showed yesterday that the nom- ination of Gen. Hancock cost his friends at Cin- cinnati only about seven hundred dollars, it seems only fair to say that the nomination’ of Gen. Garfield at Chicago was accomplished without the expenditure of astngle cent. These are signs of which intending candidates in 1ss4 Should not fail to take notice. While it cannot be doubted that Hancock’s nomination was wg) received generally by his Party, it must be admitted on the otner hand that'so far all efforts at ratification meetings in different parts of the country have been morti- fying failures, The same thing is measurably tue of the republican party and its nominee. Things may get- more lively after awhile, bat the probabilities now are that while the cam- raign may me an earnest one, it 1s not goibg to be of the powder-burning, troat-split- Ubg order on elther side. Deacon Richard Smith, who is Mr. Dana’s beau ideal of wisdom and goodness, says: “Gar- fleld’s soldier part 1s equal to the soldier part of Hiancock, and there 1s a great deal of Garfield beside the soldier division.” ‘This is the dispatch that ex-Supervising Arch- itect Mullett sent to General Hancock: “As a Republican who hates fraud, treachery and lying, [thank God for your nomination, and predict your triumphant election.” ‘The chairman of the Congressional demo- cratic campaign committee has {ssued a call for a meeting of the committee at 12 o'clock noon es 12th at the Hoffman House, in New York city. After his nomination, Gen. Hancock, when asked as to his policy, said: ‘ Democratic, of course. Whether in or out of the high oftice of President, I believe that honest self-government is the highest gift a people can have, and that is In a nutshell what I belfeve to be the spirit of democracy and the Cincinnati convention.” The Mississippi Star, however, lays down this as the spirit of the party to be shown in that State: “Inaugurate social ostracism against every white man North or South that gives his support to the building up of the republican party; discountenance any man who will £2, on or assist in making the bond of any man elected on the republican ticket; refuse to have deal- ings of aby sort with the republican party, and show to the world that you are in truth and eed a true democrat.” ARMY ORDBRS.—The following general court- Martial is appointed to meet at the cavalry depot, Jefferson Barracks, Mo., on the 6th day of July, 1880, or as soon thereafter as practi- cable, for the trial of such prisoners as may be brought before it: Lleut.

Bradlaugh’s Anti-Christian Views, Lonpon, June 29.—A letter to the Stania Signed by the secretary of a London soctety, States that a writer, having a large Indian offti- clal correspondence, says letters from many parts of India show that of late Mr. Bradlaugh abd certain London secularist societies have been actively importing into India pseudo- philesophical and quast sclentitic pamphlets, apparently written 2 ee scepticism, and they are also translated into Hindoostan. The result of their eirculation has been to give rise to the Idea among the natives that England is giving up her views as to the christian religion. The recent notoriety gained by Mr. Bradlaugh in England and Ameriea has also given him a fictiUous importance in the eyes of many per- sons in India, and his election to parliament has added thereto.
