Our Washington Letter.


WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. A, '76
Neither nlden nor his advisers
appear able to extricate the "refortn.
er" from the ugly position in which
he has been placed by the revelations
of the New York Times. Indeed the
leading Democratic papers touch the
matter of his alleged perjury in the
most gingerly manner, and with mark
ed SYMPTOMS of distress, while the coun-
try press is generally silent, as though
waiting to be led out of the difficult
ties by which environed. Absolutely
nothing has yet been offered invalida-
ting the charges of perjury made by
the Times; and its disclosures have
been made known and discussed every
where, throughout the country. Si.
lence, under theAcircumstances, must
and will be accepted as confession of
guilt.
From many sections of the South
there come evidences of a revival of
the traditional hostility always exist
ing between the Whig and Democrat
ic, parties. Former Wings who have
acted with the Democrats since the
disruption of their own party, because
they had no where else to go, have
always been more or less uncomforta.
bic and restless in their abortive effort
to form a union with an incompatible
element. This feeling Of dissatisfac-
tion has been augmented by the meni-
al position always assigned them in
this coalition, and has now become
painfully apparent to the Democracy.
and it now attempts to accomplish by
soft words and sycophancy what it
has failed to bring about-a perfect
union-by kicks and cuffs. There is
no question but that the Republican
ranks are being strengthened by re-
crults Of this character. Whether the
desert:ons from the Ku Klux Democ.
racy will be sufficiently numerous to
materially effect the result in Novem.
ber, is a matter that cannot yet be
definitely stated. But these old
Wings constitute an element in South
ern politics that must be taken into
account in all subsequent predictions,
touching the future status Of polite
al parties south of Mason and Dixon's
line.
Reports from the Centennial are
gratifying to all friends of that enter

with appears to be at its best; and
the increased number of visitors has
made the hearts Of the Commissioners
to rejoice. The great int ernational
regattas on the Sehuylkill attract great
interest among the Centen NAL visitors.
The four cared scull race between the
London crew and the Yale crew was
hotly contested, and it may be, and
was, considered a sort of Bunker Hill
victory, for the Britishers. Itappears
to be conceded that had the English
Fcrew started with no odds, the Yale
crew would have come off victorious.
The distance was one and halfmiles,

1yA A short time ago the N. Y. Times,
In desperate strait for something to
say against TiIden, charged that he
had made an incorrect income return
some years ago; whereupon the Sun
and other leading journals in the in
terest of truth took the pains to-
thoroughly investigate the matter, and
proved the charge utterly groundless..
Consequently the Times has since had
the prudence to withdraw the false
and slanderous accusation with as
good grace as possible; but the Ad-
ministration echoers in the interior
having caught up the yelp, are still
thowling Fraud and Perjury r.
Forest Press.
Consequently the Times has had the
prudence to withdraw no word of its
accusations, which fact the editor
of the Press undoubtedly knew when
he produced the above. A cause is
pretty frail when it has to be supper
ted by that kind Of "whole' cloth"
stuff. How in the name of "reform"
could the Times withdraw an accusa-
ton founded on two affidavits of
Tilden's. Further: beside reiterating
ats charges which the Press says it has
chad the prudence to withdraw" the
9sanNSSsiapdS ready to furnish proof
acceptable in any court that the
$4,000 of railroad fees formed but a
small part Of his income the year he
swore it to be but $7,11S. This illus
trates the Stiffness of those papers
which try to lift Tilden up and give
him decent character in the face of
his confieting afidavits. Says the
Times on this subject: "Save here and
there some needless or shameless
country organ, the Democratic press
has abandoned the attempt to explain
away Mr.. Tilden's perjury and fraud.
As for the candidate himself, he seems
quite willing to abide by the lame
excuse of his secretary, that as the
$4,000 fee from the Alton and Terre
Haute Railroad was partly earned
before 1862, therefore it could not all
be included in the tax return for that
year. We have shown, however, that,
even accepting this theory, the accusa-
tion of perjury remains untouched. AT
Ieast 81 300 of the fee ia question
was earned in 1862, according to Mr..
Tilden's own statement, end not
dollar of that amount paid income
tax. We shall, one of these days,
show with some detail the chief source
of Mr.. Tilden's income in 1862 and
subsequent years. Meanwhile, we
trust that our Democratic friends will
remember that it is a mere waste of
time to quibble over the $4,000 fee
in 1862, as if that were the sole item
of Mr. Tilden's income about which
we have any evidence. There are
abundant data on which to prove Mr..
Tilden a perjurer and a swiudler
without reference to this fee or the
time when it was earned ample as
the evidence is which it supplies with
ont reference to anything else"
