Many democrats were in- slived to make the ight tor Western States. aod these wow say that ‘the tickes substantially surrenders the West aud stakes the issue on New York, which has long been regarded vy politicians as a “To lose it now would be fatal to us,’ Southern demerat, ‘and it was hardly wise to set so much upon a single state; but, it is, atver all, a strong ticket, apd for my part, 1f we can elect Mr. Tilden, 1 would rather bave fim juan any other man.’? One thing gives general’ satisiaction to the rea! aem- ocrats. “Tilden is a democrat. Ho never was spything else, He was raised in that camp, and if we can win ‘with him we sbull havea democratic party on democratic Principles once more, Our party has been cursed vy the rule of old whigs, Now thero is a chance of getling Away jrom them.’’ So spoke & genuine democrat to-day. In this aspect the nomination of Mr. Tilven gives real satsiuciion to that large number of men who would have accepted Sndge Davis or General Hancock, if either of these bad been vominated, with a sort of despair at not, after ail, being allowed to make the fight under their own ban, “per, ‘Thesd now feel and say that even if they are ‘Deaten they will have areal democratic party and nut ‘@ mixtare. Is is ® little curious that among Southern republi- ans the came thing is said, but with a different view, These men are in the main whigs, and they know the Birength of the old whig feeling and traditions «n the Bouth. They are giad that the St. Louis Convention ‘owimated an out and out democrat, for they believe that im such States as Virginia, North Carolina, Louisiana and, perhaps, Arkansas, it will nuw be casior than be- tore to draw away the whig vote from the democrauc Yanks, and to divide the white vote of those and other Biates, This matter is not yet openly discussed, but it is the subjectof a good deal oi private coaversation, and if the republicam leaders know how to take advantage of the old whig prejudice in the Southern States aguinat tbe name, principles and traditions of the democratic party, they may boable to effect a split down there, which, even if it did not materially heip them in this election, would be of great service to tho couutry Colonel Mosby is understood to say that in Virginia the old whigs can be brought into the support of Hayes aud Wheeler, end he means himselt to stump the State for that ticket, North Caroiina is a whig Siate, and it is already said bere that it will be carried by the whigs for Hayes. In Louisiana, Warmouth, 1t is as- sorted will be able, if he is nominated, to carry at least 30,000 white voters to the republican side, At the last election less than 5,000 yoted that ticket, It would be an odd, but also a happy circumstance, if the pomina- tions now made, Tilden a very decided democrat, and Hayes Just as decided a whig, should result in a re- “arrangement of parties upon the old and true basis, the one struggling for non-interference by the govera- ment, the other holding, as whigs, to interial improve- s m nts and a g°nerally parental system, There have been signs in the House all winter that the democratic leaders who bave the courage of their Opinion+, and who stand by their principles, were once m0 © graspiog the reinx, and if Speaker Kerr had uot ved an invalid those who hold with him would have 2@-D even more forward in asserting their leadership ‘han they have been, In such a redivision, if it should come about, certain of the Southern States would naturally turn to the whig or republican side, a8 Louisiana, which desires protection for her sugar srop, and the States which demand large appropriations from tbe general government ior their levees, At the Cincinnati Convention it was commonly said by dele- gates and others trom the Lower Mississippi States, “We must nomipate a man we can eicct, because the. democrats, if they get in, will never give us any lovee appropriations,” A few words spoken by Governor Hayes at the Athens University Commencement, the other day, are pleasantly appreciated here, and especially by Southern Gemocrats, He urged that the canvass should be car- ried on in akind and candid spirit and without bitter- , Ress or excitement. Such words, coming from the head of the party, lead to the hope that there will be 20 blondy sbirt raised, this time, and thoogh the hope ». (4s probably vain, there being a large number of old war horses inthe party who would be condemned to silence {f they could not howl about the bloody spirt. ihe feneral beliol that Governor Hayes is averse to such a ‘pourse bas: civsed an expectation among Southern mon “that they will not be held up to execra- won im) this campaign, as in previous ones, «8 rebels and monsters, The wiser republicans are in- slined to discourage such a policy of abuse in the com- ing campaign. They are no more certain about New ‘Yo. ktban their oppunents, and they know that they may lowe some of the Western States Indiana and Wiscon- wn, for instance. It would make them very comtorta- aie if they could carry two or: three Southern States, and experience has (aught them that the bloody shirt, while jt has lost most of its efficacy in the North, is sure to drive the whole white population of the South ‘Mio the Lemocratic Trunks, nnd to make those States, 2xcept South Caroliva, hopelessly democratic. There ‘@w general desire among the republicans here that Governor Hayes shall write a siroug and decided letter Dt ucceptance, emphasizing those parts of the Ciucin- gati platiorm which they ail feel ww be woak. Such a letter would be useful, itis thought, both as giving the country some more definite conceptivn of Governor Hiyes' own ideas ana policy than it now has, and of wirongtheniug by his utterances the position of the purty bolore the country. ‘Tue nomimation % Governor Tilden was spoken of to day by leaving democrats as a most astonishing!y Sucovssiul piece of political engincerng. “The old (0.0 bad bis agents all tirough our country,” said « Southern democrat. ‘I canie uj on their wacks every- where, and they just captured our people He had Dr, Gwyn, the old Duke of Sonora, to help him, and did not tailanywhere, He 1s certainly a great manager.’) “He bad good helpers at St. Louis, asJohn Kelly and Tammany Hall,’ said another, “it was very surewd of tbe oid man to quarre! with Tammany as he did. ‘The opposition of Kelly just made him shoals of friends; for the Southerh and Western men don’t like Tammany Hail, avd when it came to Si. Louis to beat Tilden we jast knew he was the might man, It made him lots of friends, sir, that opposition of Tammany.” “Tilden was uot really popuiar,’’ said another, “We would just as soun have bad Hendricks, ind wo would ever £0 much rather pave had Seymour or Tom Bayard or Tharman. In tact, almost ali of us ielt that we would prefer aman who had seen more public service than Ti den and had more of the kind of experience in ted- tral affairs that Tourman and Bayard have; but the old t man worked his case up so completely that when the” UUme catwe there was nobody but he that had a chance.” Thix is not a very high kind of praive from one’s ,triewas; bat the conviction is general and openly spoken.of among the democrats hero that Mr. Tien got tho nomination, not because bo was wanted, but be. c@ise, by the most adroit aud skilfal generaiship, captured It, “He ts evidently a determined manager of men, and if he is elected he will manage Congre-s," said one, “1 should not Jear if be found himself confronted by a soft money majority be would make himsel! their master and make them do his bidding. Andas his idoas are sound I am giad that he was nominated, He will rule the country, for he evidently likes to have bis own way.” This js afair picture of the gossip uf the day here in Washington. Neither party 1s enthusiastic Both are . hopeful, ana both own that the struggle will be ardu- ous. Put one conclarion 1 universal, and affords per- Yaps tho mont general satistaction to all. Both tickets are good, and the country is safe, whiebever side wins. Phe Henatp’s leader to-day, which gave expression to this feehng, was generally praised as having bit tho 4 most impostant and satisiactory point in the political situation.

Mr. Seymour was found suflering from a iow fever which has contlued him to his place for the Jast ten days, His physicians prescribe resi and object to his reading or writing or any physical exertion. In answer to in- quiries about the action of the St, Louis Convention i idhe knew less than most men, for during its sesaions and for some days belore he had been cut off from intercourse with others an! the usual sources of mielligence, Of course he knew less about other States than those who had met their deiegates at Si Louis As regards the State of New York, trom his familiarity with its postical affairs, he could repeat waat he had said at all times that it is A DEMOCRATIC STATE, and roady to support the acuions of the St. Louis Con- sVention; Uhatyt Would give its electoral vote to any one presentod’by that body. He said that previous to euch of the two late Conventions the friends of cand: dates in tueir excitement had made claims tor their favorites or had raised objections to those to whom the; were oppossd Which were somewhat exaggerated. It was dujusttoall of the cmiment men named at St Louts or the office of President to say that certain in- aividuaig only could carry the Siate of New York, as that raised an uniounded douvt as to the ability ol any democrat to commund its vole, As to the excitements which now exist it wust be borne iu mind (that tuey die away as all thé State and local candidates are brougut into the field, dn this State, with its 5,000,000 of people and its great cities, THE PRESIDENTIAL CANVABS docs not excite wS much interest wily Lue mass of the voters as the local tick ilus interest before the Clone of te cauvass aiwavs bring> the voters to act in accord with the political orgauzation to which whey belong, even if they are discontented with # particel candidute, Their auxiety for the success of the great pumber of other candidates leads them to act in har- mony with the party, The interest tor State aud county, city and town nominatious will, after a hule time, absorb the feelings with regard tn the Presiden- tial candidate, aod both parties will be brought to the test of the relative strenzth of their organizations. Mr. Seymour concluded by adding, emphatically :— ‘*You may say I thunk wo are going tu carry the Stave of New York, because it is naturally a demo- cratic State. '? Mr. Svymour says that by and by, when he has re- covered his bealth, he will give his views at length on the political situation. GOVERNOR PARKER'S VIEWS. HE BELIEVES TILDEN WILL CARRY THE COUN- TRY ON THE REFORM ISSUE—A HEARTY SUP- PORT PROMISED IN NEW JERSEY. Frernoip, N J., June 29, 1876. In the cosy library of his comfortavle residence at Freebold, N. J., ex-Govervor Parker sat yesterday tor half ao hour and chatted with a HéRatp represenia- tive on the result of tho St. Louis Convention and the prospects of the now fairly opened campaign, For a man who stood nearly, if not quite as fair, a chance of securing the nomination of bis party forthe Presidency as did Governor Hayes at one time, but bad seen his hopes melt into thin air, be presented an appearance of Compozed resignation, if not of gayety. plain to be seen, -owever, thata tingo of d: tment coursed beneath the smiling surtace of the Gov- ernor’s gvod natured face. He was entirely satistied with the re alt, he said. For himseli bh: bad no regrets, though he must confess for Is trrencs’ sake—those who had now and always stood by him 60 warmly and handsome y—be would like to bave eucceided. He beheved, Lowever, that Providence controlled these things, and therefore he was entirely resigned. As regards the nominution of Governor Tilden, nothing, it seemed to him, could be fuirer or more strictly in accordance with time-honored democratic practice. It was quite c.ecr that the great issue upon which Mr. Tilden was nominated was THE REFORM 1S8UK. It was not to be denied that on that point Governor Tilaen had a splendid chance to show his mettle, Newer was it to be denied that he had used bi- o,,por- tuuity 1m a manver that vave assurance to the people of his sincerity and bis lteariessness in the work of reiorm. “I know Governor Tilden,” contmued Mr. Parker, “to be a man of gre.t ability, and to be possessed of all the neces ary executive experictee aud firmucss to fuily qualify bim tor the réce of a teal reformer, 1 believe the desire of the people for a change 13 so great that any fair man nominaud a Louis would elected.

Governor Hayes is doubue: a very exce.ient man, but he lacks that firmucss which the emergency demanus, He 18 not strong enough In character to carry the odtam of Graniism through the present contest.” The foui record of bis party is tore than he can carry. Therefore I feel the utmost conil- dence that Goveraor Triden, known and tried as he 1s as 4 than Who can fay the Kuile to the cancer ot cor- Tuption, wherev:r ‘ound, can carry the cquntry om tho retorm issue. 1 can suy for mysell, and for my friends also, that we will give him AN ENTAUSIASTIC SUPPORT. “The electoral vote uf New Jerscy may be surely counted for bim. This year i will be dilerent froin former years with the opposition. They will hot have the lavish sopport formerly assured to them by the whiskey and other rings, We shall bave a tairer fight tn New Jersey. As regards New York, I see no reuson why Mr. Tilden should not carry 1 this year as he did two years ago. I lanty that now the nominations are made the focal troubles wiit disappear and barmuay set im. The nomination of Hendricks tor Vice President greatly strengthens the ticket, Iam confident it will win.

Couemava, June 29, 1876, The nomination ot Hendricks tor second place on the St. Louis ticket bad done much to remove the bad feeling that existed Jast night among the democrats here, and it is now likely that the ticket will receive about the usual vote, unless, perbaps, In some of the mining districts, where the ultra inflation idea pre- vails, While the republicans concede that the ticket hag been somewhat sirengtheved by the addition of Hendricks, yet the Repnblican State Committee to- he “i ~~ Hayes’ majority in Ohio will be very large. . 8, Robinson, canaidate on the republican ticket for Lieutenant Governor of Indiana, 1s here calling on Governor Hayes to-night. THe states that Hendricks’ nomination will not strengt the democratic ticket 80 much in Indiana as was expected by the Conven- tion, Ho says Hendricks’ course on the temperance question bas displexsed both ulira temperauce and the saloon element. Robinson estimates the repuvlicans will carry Indiana in October avywhere from 6,000 up ard, The Indiana campaign will commence July 20 bh meetings in all of the principal cities of the State, PRESS COMMENTS., The Boston J’o.¢ thus comments on the pomina tion :— tn Now wo can catch a glimpse of better times.
