POLITICAL NOTES.

Unless the political prophets are wOefully
astray. Gov Allen of OHIO the day after election viii
think political ambition like specie resumption, Is pro
fame Z" barren idcalty"
The Hon. -. w. voorhees, is of the opinion
that President Grant will he candidate for third term
Mr. Voorhees, believes i'll abundance OF -oft money,
and doubtless thinks the Third Term questoIswoud he
helm to the imitation causo II would be pretty hard to
tell which would he the worst-Granti'm or il faton
Rather than chOOse either the people might dcnanu
third candidate
Senator Morton's speech as a Presidential
bid WAS not success 1t wa speech which would
the soft money party great deal either but The
Cincinnati Enquirer does not diminish its influence by
calling its authOr political renegade ana IegeSs
liar" Abuse OF that kind is getting to h. the only kind
OF the money advocates are making 10 thcir
adyersaries' arguments.
The Ohio "rag baby" has not captivated the
Pennsylvania Democracy if The Easton Dispatch is cor
recty informed 1t there Is no stery in the posi-
ton OF party OF tho state on the money Question: and
adds What they want il the 25t grains dollar. The
only mysteries the Democrats are anxious about AZ pres
ent are those ~ Macky's disposition OF the state funds
and HaItranfts expensive administrations
Gov. Tildens fight against the Canal Ring ~
appreciated outside OF tins State rs well as inside
The Phiiadeiphia Times thus cOmmehds his Buffalo
speech 10 PENNSYLVANIA officials He has proven what
an honest able, and fearless Executive ran accomplish
for a Commonwealth and he puts TO shame the passive
submission OF Gov Hartr,nft and Mayor st0kley when
iawlessness and profgacy run riot about them. Gov
Tilden didn't stop to inquire how many Democratic
officials would suffer by the publication OF the depart
ments but he applied the knife meciics,ly 81 the
corruption AM lie tells how grand were The ris OF
his efforts we have lifted standard of public AMI
official morality in thc country are his words and they
weave q chaplet OF unfadins honor for ms idmnistla
lion. When WIN Penn,yiyan'a or philadelphia Chiai
Magistrate he able t. come before the people and sam up
the iiiumpbs OF his rule by such a drclaT,t.0A
The Democratic press of this State appears
TO be in favor of giving the Speakershp OF the next
House Mr.. Kerr few Of the journals favor Mr. Cox
but majority take about the view expressed in
the following extract from The Troy Press The con-
test narrows down to Messrs Cox and Kerr. and 1t il
especially crodabe the party that the contestants for
this both worthy and deserving To neither
of these gentlemen there lie personal exceptions
taken But think the whole that Mr.. Kerr will be
the successful candidate. He is sound ali matters af
fectng the public and the party and unquestionaby
suited the nice and cxactng position Of Speaker His
candidacy seems to have been spontaneously ard
widely responded to than Mr.. Coxs OWING to his
locality he Il likely to be stronger III the caucus
The East looks viii furnish the next President tbs
West will not be satisfied without the sltaker az least
Besides this it strikes that Mr. COXs gifts III HIM FOR
duty on the floor OF the House better than for The chair
Next to Mr. Kerr there IL no aspran whose election
would better satisfy the party and the nation But Mr.
Kerr is mdniesty the coming man
Gen. Harris NJ. Plaisted, whom the Repub-
leans of the WITH Maine District have nominated for
Congress- unable to realize that the Is over
