New Jersey ut Cincinnati.

We print this morning another contribu-
ton to the series of interviews with the
delegates to Cincinnati with which we have
been enriching our pages, the opinions of
the New Jersey delegation forming the sub
ject of the present chapter. A perusal of
these opinions will show that while Mr.
Blaine was at tho outset the favorite with
majority Of the New Jersey delegation his
friends are beginning to break away from
him. Some of those who were his most
ardent advocates few weeks ago are not SO
sure now that they will support him in the
light of recent exposures. This, we take it,
is the beginning of disintegration in his
phalanx of supporters. One by one his ad-
mirers are losing their esteem for him, and
in the week which remains before the Con-
yention meets his strength will be greatly
diminished. A week ago he could conf
IDENTIFY have counted upon fourteen out of
the eighteen delegates from New Jersey.
Now it is doubtful if he can control q
majority of the delegation. The same
thing must prove true in other States,
and it follows as consequence that no cam
not obtain the nomination at Cincinnati.
Accessions to his strength were necessary
even before this Mulligan exposure, whereas
nccessions now are not only impossible, but
he will be deprived of much of the support
he had already secured. The sentiments of
many Of the Blaine men in the New Jersey
delegation clearly prove this and demon
strate what we had already assumed-that
he is practically out of the race. 1t is not
likely that the votes which Blaine loses will
60 either to Bristow or to Hayes, because of
a feeling in favor of candidate long familiar
with public life and thoroughly trained in
public affairs, and 40 either Conkling or
Washburne must secure them. None of the
other candidates meet the requirements of
the republican party, and as all previous
calculations of strength will have to be re-
vised because of Blaine's unexpected weak
ness there is no reason why a statesman
like Conkling should not commend himself
by his character, abilities and services to the
Convention, or that Washburne should not
come as welcome relief to the embarrassed
delegations.

Tho Yellow Man ~ . Citizen and
= Brother.

The Chinese question has assumed such q
shape rs will compel Congress to take it in
hand unless Congress is willing to bear the
odium of Sinking a plain duty. We refer
to the San Francisco memorial, printed in
other columns, for vigorous statement Of
the grounds of complaint against the de-
based and corrupting Cinnamon. This me-
mortal may be thought to bear marks Of pas
sion and exaggeration; but the extravaganza,
if there be any. merely proves how deeply
our citizens in the Pacific States arc moved
by this gigantic and revolving evil. There
is abundant evidence, quite apart from the
memorial, that the facts it recites are true in
substance. This is not party question.
There is no difference of opinion on it among
the white inhabitants of the Pacific States
The able speech made by Senator Sargent on
the LIST of May abounds with authentic and
incontcstablc evidence Of the truth of what
has been so often related Of the beastliness
the filth, squalor, leprosy, venereal diseases;
the lawlessncss, perjury and violence; the
corruption of youth and the injury to the
labor;ng classes that make the Chinese quar-
ter Of San Francisco q huge fostering ulcer
which is eating into the morals of the COM
muni;y. Referring our readers to the me-
mortal for the loathsome details, we will
merely add few remarks on the question of
remedies and the duty Of the federal gov
eminent to lose no time in applying them,
cauterizing this filthy pagan sore if it cannot
be dicsected out.
The necessity for immediate action can be
made very apparent Everybody rccollccts

LIGHTS on VEHICLES AT NIGHT In city
SO large as New York it should undoubtedly
be the law for all vehicles using the streets
after dark to be provided with lights. The
city ordinances provide for this with horse
cars and public hacks. but to mako the
streets safe it should apply impartially to
all The dangers from unl:ghted vehicles
arc as great to those driving other vehicles
as to the pedestrian who must hesitate to
cross the street at certain Of the dark hours
unless he can trust to his ears for judging
distances. Where tho chances of n smash
up in the one case or Of being run over in
the other are all on the side of no lights, we
do not think it should take the authorities
long to decide how they will deal with the
matter The objection to lighting private
carriages is an affectation, and entitled to
about rs much respect as would be tho de-
sire Of the owners 70 start private burying
grounds in their back gardens.

Ir Will BE GRANT CONVENTION. George
William Curtis, the eloquent and steadfast
antagonist Of Roscoe Conkling, gives as one
reason for his course that the most faith
full friends of the President and the present
system of administration are in favor of his
nomination. Conceding the truth of this
proposition, why should it be an objection
to the nomination Of Mr. Conkling by the re-
publican Convention This Convention will
DO composed Of the faithful friends" Of
Grant and his system. If Mr.. Curtis has
any doubt on the subject let him offer res
olution embodying contrary views. This
Convention will not nominate a man who is
the enemy, or even tho critic, of Grant. So
far as Grantism is concerned, no candidate
Blaine, Morton or Conkling will be free
from it. We cannot kill republican candi-
date in the Cincinnati Convention by crying
.'Grantism.' 1t will be Grnnt Convention.

cold frosty breezes came up nom North
Carolina. from Maine and New Hampshire,
his canvass withersd. so Il would be with
Mr. Blaine. No amount Of personal mag
netism or rhetorical power can swsy the
conscience of a great people who feel that in
choosing their Chief Magistrate they are
performing the highest function given
to frecmen- Douglas, who was the
master OF Blaine in every art Of political
address and eloquence, tried it and died
from the effort as Greeley died eleven years
later The canvass Of Douglas was opposed
to the moral sense of tho country on the
question Of slavery, aud it failed. The can
yass of Greeley was opposed to the moral
sense of the country on the question of
amnesty and the restoration Of the South to
power, and it failed. The canvass CT Blaine
would be opposed to the moral sense of the
country on the infamous railway legislation
OF ten years ago, and it would fail rs dis
astrously as that Of other and greater men.
We should not even argue this question,
it is so plain, but for the effort Of many Of
the friends of the ex-Speaker TO have the
country believe that his speech il vindica-
ton. 1t is in no sense yindication. It
releases the Speaker from many of the grave
rumors that were in circulation, and it
shows that he is not as bad as his enemies
were trying to make MS believe. But it
shows familiarity with tho operations of
the railway ring, a moneyed association
with the members OF it, desire to please
as we'll known jobber as Caldwell by shap-
ing decisions to suit his interests, altogether
incompatible with successful canvass of the
country. Nor will the argument be admitted
for a moment that Mr.. Blaine had a right to
attend to his own business in his own way
and that his being member of Congress did
not make his transactions in bonds sin.
Mr. Chief Justice Waite would have as much
right to send a letter commanding one of his
decisions on the Bench to railway operator
as Mr.. Blaine to commend one Of his own
decisions as Speaker If such q letter could be
found in the writing of Mr.. Waite he would
be impeached and removed from the Bench.
The Speakership is as exalted an Office in
some senses rs that of the Chief Justice, and
far more important in others; and what
would be high crime and misdemeanor on
the part of the Chief Justice must certainly
be bar to the advancement of the Speaker
to the Presidency.
The only question about Mr.. Blaine Isl
"Can he hold his forces at Cincinnati ; and,
if SO, what will he do with his power?" 1t
is too soon to answer that question now. In

of Blaine as a leader. Nothing remains Of
him as candidate for the Presidency, and
all he can do is to take up Washburne or

great local interest here in New York, be-
cause it annulled law Of the State which
gave authority to the Commissioners Of Emil
grafton to collect head tax and deprived
that important commission of its sources of
revenue It then became the duty of
Congress to supply federal legislation
to take the place of the State legis-
lation which the Supreme Court had de-
clared void. But that decision affected CAL
ifornia more seriously than it did New York.
1t deprived California of the ability to make
any regulations for mitigating the evils of o
great influx of vile paganism, and Congress
will deserve the indignant rebuke not only
of New York and California, but of the
whole country, if it does not replace the
dixie erected by the States and swept away
by the Supreme Court. To this extent, at
least, the further neglect of Congress to deal
with this question will be utterly mex
cusable
But merely to restore the slight barriers
which have broken down is but a small part
of the duty of the government We have o
treaty with China which permits boundless
immigration. This treaty must be either
modified or abrogated. 1t might be better
to modify it with the consent of China, be-
cause it is desirable to retain the advantages
it gives to our own citizens in that
country. But it would be better to
cast aside the whole treaty than to
leave things as they are. The best remedy
is perhaps that suggested by Ex-Governor
Seymour, of this State, alluded to by SEN
ator Sargent in his speech. Nj. Seymour
thinks it would be expedient for Congress to
pass law forbidding the landing of more
than ten Chinese passengers from any one
ship. Ten may or may not be too small o
number, but law framed on that basis
would certainly be effectual. 1t would pre-
vent the wholesale shipments of coolies,
which is forbidden by our laws but is prac-
tised in spite of them, nothing being easier
to evade the law when the contracts for SER
vice and contracts for prostitution are drawn
up in the Chinese language which our off,

Governor Tilden and Rapid Transit.
OF far more Importance than the appoint
ment of extraordinary circuits to prosecute
bankrupt canalers, of infinitely more i'm
portance than the converting of special
circuits for the purpose Of enforcing judy
ments of restitution against the thieves who
have carried away from New York more
property than verres carried away from
Sicily, is the question of rapid transit in
this imperial city. The horse railroads have
been awarded judgment by our municipal
tribunals, a judgment which, if confirmed by
the much-abused Court Of Appeals, will cause
feelings of anguish in oil hearts that love
New York. The Court of Appeals, which at
this time all true citizens must look to as the
''last refuge Of justice" has decreed that the
'fee" of the streets Of this city is vested in
the State, and that the States title is abso-
Lutte. If this august tribunal is to regard its
own recorded judgments it is difficult to
perceive that nervous Ninth Avenue Railroad
horses have rights that our courts are bound
to respect.
Let Governor Tilden appoint On extra
ordinary term Of the Court that has absolute
power to right wronged city. And we
would here suggest to all the enemies of
rapid transit the Scriptural admonition,
"Resist not against the face of the mighty.
and do not strive against the stream of the
river"

No One QUESTIONS THE FACT that Mr..
Blaine was horribly used by Mulligan, and
his fight was calculated to excite tho admira-
ton Of al who like ncrvc and dash. But in
week all that would be forgotten, and
people would begin to read The letters and
wonder whether Mr.. Blaine as President
would be rs anxious to do a favor to q great
railway jobber like Caldwell as he was when
Speaker.

BLAINE AND CoLFAx.-If the friends of Mr.

This would make an intelligent canvass.

The Cincinnsti Outlook-Washburne
% the Front.
The falling away of Blaine and the oppo-
sition to Senator Conkling by the friends Of
Bristow and reform in this city look more
and more favorable to Mr.. Washburne. In
the event of the railroad influences. that
owned Blaine when he was Speaker, as they
owned Colfax, and that have been actively
in his favor for the nomination, opposing
Mr.. Washburne successfully. the next choice
will be Hayes, who has no such record as
Washburne not having opposed subsidies.
We consider the railroad men as powerful in
both conventions, and we can understand
why they would under no circumstances
consent to the nomination Of q man who
would oppose all Legislation in their interest
If the railroad influences can defeat WASH
burne it will be gain to Hayes. If the
Bristow men and the reformers can defeat
Conkling it will be gain for Hayes. It
looks now as if the jobbers who oppose
Washburne and tho saints who are afraid of
Conkling might unite and give rs Hayes a.
the Great Unknown. That would be pecu-
liar alliance; but all is fair in politics, espe-
cially if one wins.
Bristow would make good run but for
the fact that plain people object to his fond
ness for detectives. That is not high
qualify in President, whatever it may be in
Secretary of the Treasury.
The canvass grows moro interesting as the
hour for the Convention approaches. 1t is
hard to see how Conkling can keep the pace,
which, we should judge from these reform
movements, begins to tell on him. All will
depend upon the sincerity of his friends,
the support he receives from the admins
tration and whether the administration can
control its following
