Slate Pride.

The nomination OF Mr.. TnDrN, n citizen
and a native Of New York. will bring into
play in his favor the feeling of State pride.
That sentiment is particularly strong in
this state. IL was always manifested
strongly toward JoHN VAN buren,, causing
his follies to be viewed with lenency, and
regarding all the meritorious acts of his
life with the fondness and pride of parental
affection. II JOIN VAN BUREN had stuck
TO his free soil principles he could have
swept his native State as II candidate for
President like whirlwind
This feeling will constantly grow through
the canvass toward Mr.. TILDEN. We sup
pose he will be hercely assaled; and we
believe there will he an instructive feeling
on the part of the people among whom he
was born TO vindicate him from unjust
assaults and to protect him against untrue
accusations.
New York may he depended upon to
take care OF her own favorite son In the
Presidential election.

Hayes Represents Grantism.

All the developments since the Cincin-
natl Convention make il plain that the
combination OF influences through which
Gov. HAYES was nominated was simply
| seeking to prolong the corrupt and de
moralizing system, now known as Grant
ism. Gov. HAYES was adopted because OF
his pliable and plastic nature, his medioo-
rity. and his dependence on superior minds
to guide him in public AFFAIRS.
GRANT naturally seeks TO perpetuate his
power through weak successor. There
fore he not only promises all the aid his
Administration eau give, but presents
himself ut n ratification meeting with
Brother NEWMAN, his conscience Keeper,
rs IL to serve notice OH the army of office
holders that every one of them is expect
ed to be active, and to initiate the Presi-
dents example.
Mr.. CoNKLrSG applauds the nomination
ms good, and claims for New York the
credit of making IT. Mr. MORTON declares
the ticket unexceptionable, and says he
will work for IL with zeal, MS his friends
did ut Cincinnati when they dropped his
name aud went over In II body to HAYES.
BLAINE of course is quite satisfied, Tor has

of those Railroad Rings which 20 eagerly
bore his banner into the front Of the

SIMON CAMERON openly asserts that

with the ticket, and calls it inspired.
BEN BUTLER was one OF the foremost rati-
fiers at Washington. WILLIAM ID. KELLEY
rejoces at the financial plank of the plat
form as sound and an end of resumption.
Boss SHEPHERD is stirred with new activity
for the cause, and welcomes HAYES us
worthy To step into GRANTS shoes. Nc
DONALD. MCKEE, JOYCE, and Others who
are on the retired list OF Republican
leaders have not yet spoken ont. hut they
are known to approve the nominations
All the Rings thar have dominated the
councils and shaped the legislation of the
party for the last twelve years are enlisted
for HAYES with a. cordial zeal ~ they
would have exhibited for GRANT or BLAINE
under changed circumstances. Tue whole
party machinery is to be driven NJ double
speed under the guidance of ZAcn CuAND-
LER and his man EDMUNns. the Postnias ter
at Washington.
Gov. HAYES has nothing in his character
or his career which separates HIM from
the crowd OF Republican politicians. His
record in Congress would be n blank, ex-
cept that he pocketed the back pay in 1866.
He never raised IA fuger or lifted his
voice for any real reform. and during the
controversies of these recent year. he has
| been dumb. while to the extent of ms iniiu-
cnce he has exerted himself u q champion
of the Administration. RUTHERFoRD b.

~. Louis-TiIden the Candidate.

IL was on the second ballot that Mr..
TILDEN was nominated as the Demo-
cratic candidate for President at st.
Louis last night. The first ballot had
given him majority of nearly one
hundred over the combined vote of the
other Ave nominees: and on the second
ballot, after there had been number OF
changes in his favor his vote was thirty
nine ahead of the requisite two-thirds
majority. The result corresponded almost
precisely with that foreshadowed in the
table of estimates published in these
columns on Tuesday last.
The balloting did not begin till after
right o'clock in the evening. and very
short time sufficed for its completion.
The New York adversaries OF the success
full candidate kept up their opposition till
the last moment. and JOHN KELLY went
even SO far as TO make speech against
Mr..TILDEN after his nomination; but all
these efforts were not only unavailing, but
failed TO produce any effect whatever.
There had been Il severe struggle in the
Committee on Resolutions, which lasted
from Tuesday afternoon till yesterday
after noon. over the financial plank of the
platform. But an agreement was brought
about satisfactory 10 all parties and when
the platform was reported TO the Conven-
ton 1t was adopted by vote not far from
unanimous. The financial plank, as IL
stands, is at least as satisfactory as
that of the Republican Convention. But,
from first to last, the watchword of the
plaiform-which we should say was alto
gether too long if il were not SO full of
pungent truths-is Reform. In every para
graph ii demands reform reform i'm every
department of the Government and every
branch OF the public service. This meets
tho great public demand. and is the funda-
mental necessity of the times.
The ~. Louis Convention did n good
days work when II gave us SAMUEL J.
TILDEN rs the Democratic reform caudi-
date Tor President.

ina Arabe, the other walachian peasants croes-
Ina ford. We have seen much better pictures
ofSchreyer's m ounted Arabs than this specimen,
at all events as far az color goes. 1t seems as II
In this canvas the colors have somewnt faded
away. The " Wallachiln Peasants Is a much
more interesting picture; but there is one capi-
tai mistake In II. The middle one OF the three
horses Is made 20 carry an srched yoke over its
head, which the wallachiaus never use, and
which is a strictly Russian piece OF harness.
In the line of landscapes the collection OF Mr..
Johnston Is very rich. II comprises the names
Of Daubigny, Acnenbach, Koek-koek, Diaz,
Church, and Kensett. or all these, a piece OF
forest painting by Diaz is decidedly the most
charming. although most Of the American WIS.,
itors will probably attach greater value to the
Twilight in the wilderness" and the "Niaea-
rs," by Mr.. Church, both OF which In the eyes OF
European art criticism partake great deal OF the
nature OF stage scenery painting, as far as the
effects Of the composition 40. The subjects
which MIR. Church selects always too large to
be produced on tho limited canvas OF a parlUr
picture. The consequence is that while "A
Secluded Brook" by MFR. Kensett or piece OF
the Forest Of Fontaineb leau," by Diaz. appeals
both to the feelings and the Imagination.
Church's production leaves the SPECTATOR almost
cold would the solution OF complicated
arithmetical problem.
The English painters are represented by Mr..
Boughton (who IL rather an American), Holman
Hunt, and Turner. To the picture Of the last
named, The Slave Ship." great prominence Is
given; but we must decline expressing any
opinion about It, for the reason that do not
understand the picture. To our mind 1t Is an
absurd sllegory, very finely painted in most i'm
probable colors. 1t Is a common fault with tho
Englishmen who attempt to ideslze things or
set them in allegorical shape, to put upon
Nature meaning which Nature does not put
upon herself. Holman Hunts Z" Isabella and
the Pot Of Basil is known from the engraving,
in which, truly speaking. IL appears to better
advantage than In the original.
There are many more pictures which deserve
mention. There Is a head Nv Couture, several
excellent cattle pieces, one or two Worms and
Freres, a Descamps, ana many other valuable
canvases; but II would he impossible to speak
Of all OF them without leaving out OF view the
number Of excellent specimens Astounding IN
other collections. OF these we shall take an
early occasion to say word.

Maine was confirmed Secretary Of the Treasury,
and he has not yet seen Ht to signify whether
he will accept the ONCE or not. The true
inwardness OF the situation, so far as MORRILL,

expires next March. and he will be a candidate
for reelection in January. II he vacates his seat
now for place In the Cabinet, and Brother
BLAINE chooses TO escape further investigation
by going into the Senate for the unexplred
term, the latter will have ali the advantages Of

TO say that for many weeks there have really
been no such gains or losses. The views and

before It's meeting, and when the Convention
assembled they proceeded with calmness and
dignity to carry them out In the most positive
manner. 1t was long ago determined that Mr..
