Tammany hall was closed Wednesday even

The Rochester Democrat solemnly warns
the country not to 'put its confidence in the
intoxicating or Sam Bowles."
There is some truth if not poetry in this:
sfWho stuck to Tweed through thick and thin?
Who counted John I. Hoffman, in?
Who thought the Union war sin?
Sam Tilden."
VIM. E. Dodge's despatch to the Demo-
cratic Convention asking it to pronounce
against whisky is the best joke of the season.
So the New York Herald thinks.
The Philadelphia independently Times
does not believe Tilden can carry either
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, or Indiana,

The Argus has declared against the st.
Louis ticket-the Brooklyn argus, the
brightest and ablest Democratic paper in that
region.
The Hartford Courant says that the two
tickets stand to each other about this way:
The more that is known of Hayes the strong
er is his hold on the people. Each new fact
about him gains for him respect, friends,
votes. The more that is known of Tiden,
the worse 1t is for him. Each new fact is a
revelation against him.
In connection with the Cincinnati Enquir.
er's wry faced acceptance of the situation,
this little paragraph from its issue of Mon
day last is interesting reading: "the nomina-
tion Of Tilden at st, Louis would mean the
shameful and cowardly abandonment of the
western states to the Republican party. In
such an event Democratic newspapers in this
section would have an easy time of it,"
The Worcester Spy has no patience with
those who cry "The Democrats have nomi-
mated their Bristow." "Merciful powers"
it says, "deal gently with the bIasphemer

Bristow! Tilden! who has never in his life
been anything but sharp railroad lawyer, or
a cunning unscrupulous politician; who has
never done anything in public life without a
careful calculation of its effect on his own po-
litical fortunes"

THE prediction of an enthusiastic Tildenite
that "Uncle Sam has bushels of money and
all the boys will get some," seems to be true.
In this city the Democratic leaders are re-
ported to have offered remarkable sums to Sc
cure the services of desirable men for their
organizations. Atthe rate they 60 on $780,
600 of Uncle Sam Tilden's money will be re-
quired in Maine. The fact is, Tilden was not
so desirable Democratic candidate, because
he is supposed to be hard money man, but
because he has barrels of money with which
to buy an election. Still, he is reformer.

VEGETINE
Will Cleanse ScrOfuIa from the
System.
HONEST OPINION.

Mr.. Fl, r. STEVENS
DEAR SIR-This is to show that my son was taken
sick in January 1864 with Scrofula which came out
in large sores and ulcers his leg and hip His leg
was swelled more than twice its natural size He
had several doctors Of high standing in their profess
sion-two from Boston and three from Charlestown-
without getting a bit better. He was obliged to lie
wherever he was placed, for he had no use of his
limbs whatever. When we had given up all hopes of
his living we we're told to try VEGETINE, the great
blood remedy; and he had taken it but short time
before we could see great change. The sores run SO
bad that we had to change the cloths four or five
times day. Still, he was getting better; for he
could move his limbs and help himself a little. He
was soon able to sit in bed and, by constant use
OF VEGETINE, it has cured him. He has lame
Leg which he will probably have for life; but we all
honestly believe, If we had used VEGETINE before
we had bothered with those doctors, it would have
saved the of his leg, and restored it to natural
health. hope all those troubled with Scrofula will
read this testimony of me and my son, who is now
well and able to speak for himself.
CATHERINE MAHONEY,
DANIEL MAHONEY

The above plain but honest statement conclusiyely
shows the quick and thorough cleansing effects of the
VEGETINE in Scrofua.
VEGETINE is acknowledged by all classes of people
to be the best and most reliable blood purifier in the
werld.

that decent men considered that voting was a
HUGE JOKE. Does any one believe that s. j.
Tilden, chairman of the Democratic State Com
mittee, the associate of Hoffman, Tweed,
Oakley Hall & Co., knew nothing about these
outrageous frauds? Impossible. He did know
of them, and if he did no more he consented to
them and allooced them his sanction byhis name.
Further, who does not believe that this sharp
speculator was. mot fully aware of the operations
of Boss Tweed's Ring, in plundering the city

ates when he could gain more credit thereby
than by defending them?

The InflatiOniSt Element.

1t is evident that the Democratic nomina-
tions will receive the hearty support of the
infationists. Indeed there is no reason lex
cept regard for their throats,) why the soft
money men should not shout themselves
hoarse over Tilden & Hendricks, for they
have been cast out by the Republicans and
adopted by the Democrats. At Cincinnati
they were recognized in neither nominations
nor platform. At st. Louis they were recog-
nized in both. Their demand for declara-
ton in favor of the repeal of the resump-
tion act is acceded to, and the most adroit
opponent of specie payments is put upon the
ticket.
The infationists plainly perceive that their
only hope of success is in the election of the
Democratic candidates. They do not care to
oppose Tilden, for they have little fear Of a
man who, while protesting to favor resump-
ton is willing to postpone it indefinitely.
They entertain no objections to that sort of
Financial reform" which begins by repudi-
ating the solemn pledge of the government
to pay its debts at a stated time, and which
has prominent infationist as its exponent
on the national ticket. So long as the posi-
tive advantage is with them they have no
reason to find fault with ambiguous declara-
tions which are made solely to mislead hard
money men. No matter what the platform
says so long an repudiation is in it and Hen
bricks upon it. That is enough for them.

THE Senate committee to investigate the
last election in Mississippi have returned to
Washington having had twenty sessions,
averaging nine hours each, at Jackson and
Aberdeen, in that state. They examined
over 120 witnesses, Mr.. Redpath, who ac-
companied the committee, says that the only
point on which the Republicans and Demo-
Gratis of the committee agree is, that not one
of them would live in Mississippi if they re-
ceived legal title to the whole state as an
inducement. He thinks that the reports of
the majority and minority, when made, will
be composed of two words "Thugs"
and "Thieves"- s"-majority, thugs, minority,
thieves. The evidence shows that the BOur-
bon Democracy who managed her last elec-
tions, the white vote of the state, the sane
men who drove Mississippi into secession
against the wishes of the better classes of the
state, now control its politics, and that they
hesitated neither at fraud nor assassination
and the wholesale massacre of negroes to
carry the last elections. 1t is aghastly record.
The outrages of Kansas which created
the Republican party, were mere boys quar-
rels in comparison to the acts of the Bour-
bon Democratic leaders in Mississippi. At
the same time Mr.. Redpath says the Repub-
lican party, as organized in Mississippi, de-
served to be peacefully defeated. Owing to
the incapacity and quarrels of the Republican
leaders and the ambition and incapacity of
the negro it was rapidly drifting to destruc-

Redpath adds that that the negroes are so
thoroughly intimidated that the State will
