NEW YORK DEMOCRACY.

The recalled democratic state con-
vention held at Albany, week before last,
proved itself submissive to the last.
There was strict obedience to the will
and wish of Governor Tilden. The cum
ming scheme for eonstraining Governor
Seymour to allow himself to be used
without accepting the nomination was
Tilden's scheme. He evidently thought
1t would be a clover operation TO use
SeymOur's name in the canvass, and then
have DOrsheimer for the actual Cover
nor. But Mr.. Seymour crushed his
scheme by resOlutely forbidding the use
of his name. Next, it was intended that
the state committee should fill the va
cancy; but the expression of feeling
against this course was so strong that
the committee was obliged to call the
convention together again. 1t re-assem-
bled on Wednesday of week before last,
and, had it been left to itself. would
have nominated Judge Amasa J. Park
err; but Mr.. Tilden's order had gone
forth, and LucIus Robinson was nOmina-
ted. He is not strong man ne Is not
a man who could have been nominated
By the free will of convention of New
York democrats Doubtless the nomin-
alton of Judge Parker would have been
more satisfactory to the democratic par
ty generally, but Tilden preferred Rob-
inson, and that was enough.
Mr.. Robinson is an old Republican,
who came into the democratic party
through the Greeley movement of foul
years ago. His was one of the name:
put on the democratic ticket last yea
which excited so much resentment. HI
was twice elected comptroller on the Re
publican ticket in opposition to the de
mOcracy. and has ever been regarded a
an interlOper by no small proportion o
his present political associates.
After the enormous blunder perpetra
ted at the first Saratoga convention, ant
in the face of the manifest Republica
uprising throughout the land, it matter
ed very little what Mr.. Tilden and hi
managers did at the second convention
But even the little they might have don
