The Heutenant-governor in his college
days wrote a brilliant essay for the At.
tdnttC Monthly, on Aaron Burr, and his
literary reputation was at once 1cknowI-
edged by the critics. During the war he
acted as military secretary to General
Fremont during the hundred days. al

He was taken in hand on his arrival
here by his cousin, Police Commissioner
Dorsheimer, with whom ne visited the
prominent points of interest in the CITY.
The ieutenat-governOr is a fine speci-
men, mentally and physically, and
comes from good stock, his father
many years ago filing the position of
state treasurer Of New York, with con-
ceded integrity and ability. Edward
Cooper, Of New York, is another dele
gate from that State registered at the
Lindell. He is the son of the honored
Peter Cooper, of New York, the founder
of the Cooper institute. Among the
distinguished New Workers now
here, few are better informed,
perhaps, in regard to the
political situation in the Empire
state than the lieutenant governor, and
as the exponent OF Governor Tilden's
claims to the Presidential nomination
his views possess special interest at
this time. A Rspu6lica'a reporter visit
ed him at his room yesterday evening,
and was received very courteously, and
in response to inquiries, particularly re-
gsrding the opposition to Governor Til
den in his own State, Of which some
handle is made, he remarked briefly as
follows:
There is no greater opposition than
usual in so large State before nOnni-
nation is made. The State Of New York
Is very large and populous commu-
nifty, with so many conflicting interests
that it Is out of the question to expect
harmony, and next to impossible that
such body OF men should not exhibit
considerable difference Of opinion with
reference to any proposed nomination.
He thought that there is much less op-
position to Governor Tilden among the
Democracy than there would have been
to any other gentleman who might
hsYe been brought forward. rhe party,
he thought, could not:haYe been better
united under Governor Seymour, as
most of the persons now opposing Gov

tgnsely hostile to Governor Sey-
mour, and il the latter had

posing him. The opposition, ne con-
tinued, among the Democracy consists
OF the corrupt men who have been ex-
posed ard punished through Governor
Tilden's efforts. They are the men who
now oppose him, and they constitute
the argest part Of the opposition. There
are others Influenced in great part by To-
cal considerations, by personal disap.
pointment and jeslousies. Governor
Tilden, il nominated on a sound plat
form, will, in his opinion, carry the
State by a large majority, snd if he
should not be nominated the result will
be great disappointment and discour-
agement among the Democracy Of New
Yolk. They will feel that the party has
failed to take up its reform leader, with
whom as its standard-bearsr it could
achieve Democratic victory. The lieu
tenant governor being gu astioned in re-
gard to the two-tbirds rule, said: The
Democracy of New York care nothing
about tie two thirds rule; they are in
different whether it should be sDrogated
or retained. They expect Governor Til
denis nomination without much diff.

senss and duty will draw the re-
quisite vote. This may be 8u.

A Times reporter called on Lieuten-
ant. Governor Dorsheimer, of New

vas cordially received by that distin-
