POLITICAL NOTES.

Gen, Joseph f.. Johnston is spoken of, with
about 100 Others, as a good man to DO Governor OF
Georgia
The Hon. Samuel +. Hunt of Cincinnati has
consented to make speech for the Ohio Democrats
and will deliver it Cleveland Sept. IL. Mr. Hunt
believes honest money and will be pretty likely to say
so without fear or favor Senator Thurnans fate ought
to convince him Of the folly OF any other course.
Gov. Tilden's recent speeches and their en-
thusastc reception by the people have convinced some
OF the Republican papers that the way to popular favor
does not le through disparagement OF the Governors
efforts at reform The Albany Express has hitherto been
very prominent in calling all Of the Governors actions
mere promises put forth for political capital but it seems
t. have seen light for says: IL Gov Tilden Is
honestly and sincerely pushing his reform measures
without nice political distinction he will have the hearty
and earnest support OF the Republicans In this state who
feel that he has great opportunity AZ psse 10 ree'e
the state OF o dangerous and an insldiOus enemy.
This startling inquiry is made by The Nation !:
II ought to be- said that Mr. PierrepOnt assumed
the Attorney Gencralshp accounts OF outragcs have
entirely ceased in from the South-an extraor
binary circumstance TO which Mr. Dawes pays too little
attention As the slaughter OF the coored man Ia going
on steadily by what internal device the reports OF
prevented from reaching Washington The Presidents
Washington organ has noticed this dearth of Admins
tration campaign capital, and has already made
the.c appeal to the faithful in the South to publish the
necessary news in those local papers which are in favor
total silence, and not an outrage
ANY one who predicts what the Massachusetts,
Republican state Convention will do six seven weeks
hence will do So The Boston Advertiser thinks in the face
Of great ncertai II adds: Other things remain
ing the same Gov CASTOR will be quite as strong can
dlate for them this year no was last year. The
ofonse he may given TO few pacehunters OF his
own party aud liquor dealers Of the baser sort will be
more than offset by the general approval OF his admins
tration. 1t will be for the Republicans to say whether
his constituency OF last year can be- held together for
lean fairy representing the Republican party and per-
sonally cpionable and Democrat Ike Gov iss
,ar tbon there was i'm war time before voters began
To cultivate habit Of rebellion
The Democrats of this State are fully con-
WINGED Of the necessity OF standing firmly by Gov Tilden
In his attack tho Canal Ring. Thus Inc Syracuse
Courier simply retchoes the sentiment OF the entire
party press when 1t says: "The great leader Of the
people in this warfare for the people against the Rings il
Gov Tilden Him they are bound to follow, bound to
sustain Not for the mans. but for the causes sake. The
has thrown himself into the breach and bids us
follow. The party (which placed him in the Exccu-
tive chair purpose to open tho ball against abuses
cannot now hesitate 1t must press forward where its
chosen leader marks the way until the victory Of \
purified Government shall have been made complete.
The people with s year ago becase they trusted
pledges. The people will be with as again II we show
no lack Of zeal carry them out. That is the sign by
which to conquer; and by none other need We
hope for victory
The Hon. George II. Pendleton has been
nominated the Presidency 1t was done by The Coz
ington Nc,cs, a Kentucky newspaper which loves soft
money The Necs says Mr.. Pendeton il beyond all dis
pue the popular candidate with the Democracy Of
Kentucky. William Allen" it adds should be resent
to Columbus but Pendleton Is the man for the White
House. There is a strong undercurrent in his favor"
The Louisville Ledgsris OF similar view, saying We
believe Covingon ncighbor does not Ovcrestimate
is undoubtedly the favortc OF the great majority OF the
Kentucky Democracy as the for tho White House ;
and his popularity has not been lessened by the
general prevalence Of belief that there has been per
sistent effort TO undermine II by misrepresenting his
opinions Kentucky has doubt II the sterling genu
iIencss Of Pendleton's Democracy"
