TILDEN's STRENGTH UNsRAKEN.

WHAT THE SOUTH WANTS.
There IL, however, one essential requisite
which the candidate who receives the hulk OF
tue southern vote must have. lie must be alto
Rrther uccept ible To IN j'rty OF the North
ern Democrats. The Southern. men sly that
| heir hrst and only ouject is to nominate a man
who can secure the largest support from
the North. The un ,nimity wi which
| New England ana the Northwest supports til-
den mas undoubtedly produced a great effect on
tue Southern delegates. The opposition in New
York. as has already been snown, does not
weigh much In any qu 'tter. IL has made but
| little II any impression a. yet Oh the southern
delegates. The very decided hostility to Tilden
| on the part OF the Ohio delegates mas been felt
to a certain extent The old NOTION about
the necessity Of carl yng the october states pre-
however, reacts AGAINST tue Hendricks men. ! {

that he can carry Indiana great Ia his p-rs ons
popularity with the people OF that State. Il
turn the Iilden men say II Is doubtful II CA
carry New YORK. but they ere wiling TO max max
bricks the second place. THIS Is geneielly AZ
ceptable to MIR. HendrIckss friends out ,ide hi
accept tue second place, but OF course that
preposterous. He docs not come he''e askin

ticians has not been felt anywhere 5 o far as
