OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

1t has become evident within the
past week, that the Republican man
ayers are laboring to disseminate the
idea that the coming Presidential
election will hinge upon the October
election in Ohio. The Republican
Organs, under the immediate control
of the party managers here, announc-
ed Immediately after the Democratic
Convention in Ohio last week, that,
as Gov, Allen was defeated last fall,
the Republicans would be certain to
carry Ohio in October, and that that
would result in the defeat of the Dem
ocratic party in the general election
in November This assertion is a
shallow Republican trick, put forth
in the hope that it may discourage
weakened Democrats, Its utter
falsity is shown by the simplest cal
culation, Those Southern States
which we are certain to carry, with
New York, New Jcrsy and Connccti-
cut, will, with the addition of Cali
fornia and Oregon, give us u MAORI
ty in the Electoral College, and elect
u Democratic President, With u
candidate who can carry the States
named the Democratic party cannot be
dGfcatei. A reference to the figures
will show that if We carry Ohio and
Indiana, and iosc New York and New
Jersey, or New York and Connocti-
cut, we shall be defeated. But if we
carry tho last named States, and lose
Ohio and Indiana, wcshaNwin, We
don't intend to lose Ohioand Indiana,
We intend to carry them both, But

PHILADELPHIA, May 25th.
Dear Register
Since the opening day, there has
not been much of interest transpi-
ring owing to the unlucky press Of
time, being kept so very busy trying
to finish up entirely, The buildings
are all opened to the public, and the
displays on the inside are rich and
varied.
Goods are still arriving, and will
continue to arrive during the season,
The buildings thought large enough
to hold all, are not, and it has be-
come necessary to build additions to
most of them, Several hundred car
loads of goods arrived last week.
All the buildings arc pronounced
n success, except two, that of the Ia.
dies Pavilion and the Horticultural
Hall, The Horticultural has some
very fine Tropical plants, trees and
flowers, of every description, but
does not come up to what the visitor
expected to see, There is not enough
in this department to keep one in
tcrcstcd over couple of hours. As
to the Ladies' Pavilion, it is hard to
say whether it will be completed or
not. 1t seems as if there was lack
of energy in this building. What
displays have been made are very
nice.
They have now in the Agricultu-
raj Department many interesting
objects, Here we see all the vcgcta.
Bile productions of our own, as well
of foreign countries, and during the
summer will be the most visited

gust next. From the information
we have been able to gain, We be-
liove we arc safe in saying that Mr.
Hereford will receive the nomination,
as the choice of the Democracy of
this District. We do not claim that
the nomination is due to him, but
We do say that the interests of our
people, demand his denomination
and reelection. lie has now brought
the improvement of our rivers to the
attention of the Government, and
having received some aid for them,
by another two years he will have
received appropriations sufficient to
complete the improvement of the
Great Kanawha, We doubt very
much if q new man could do so, if he
were now elected, We do not OPP
pose the other gentlemen, and if it
should be determined to nominate
either of the others, we, will give the
nominee our undivided support,

We might say now that the can
yass has really opened, although the
candidates are not yet nominated.
We advise Democrats to make no
declarations prior to the nominations
that they may have to rctract. All
good Democrats who desire the sue
cess of their party principles, will
stand by the nominees of their party,
whoever they may be, and work for
their election, We do not like to
hear the remark "if you nominate
that man | will not vote for him."
or that he twill be beaten" These
declarations are made in the heat of
excitement, and puts u voter in an
awkward position, if one of these
men were to get the nomination in
Convention, and our enemies would
use it to our disadvantage We be-
lieyc in submitting to the will of
the party, as expressed through its
delegates in Convention, and we
should all stand by the Conventions
action, whether we get our choice or
not, This is good Democracy,

Congressional candidate-and upon
this matter the friends of the three
aspirants, Messrs Hereford, Walker
and Kenna, allowed themselves to be-

1t had been intended, and expected
that the Convention would unani-
mously cudorse the candidacy of Mr..
Eastman for Governor. Unfortu-
nately, but without any intention to
injure Mr.. Eastman, some of the
friends of Mr.. Walker, conceived it
to be u favorable time to attempt the
adoption of a resolution instructing
the delegates to the Congressional
Convention, to vote for his nomina-
ton for Congress. This was violent
ly opposed by the friends of Mcssrs.
Hereford and Kcnna, and for time
much feeling and turbulence was
manifested. But fortunately those
safeguards of Democratic success and
victory, a feeling of concession and
Cancellation prevailed, and the Con
vention decided to give no instruc-
tions at all.
This settled, the Convention adj
journed, with general feeling among
the delegates, that they had acted
wisely and for the best interests of
