Judge David Davis, Of Illinois, is
looming up as Presidential candidate.

A movement is on foot in New York
looking to pressing VIM. NJ. Eyarts for

Our first choice is James G.. Blaine, Of
Maine, who we regard as the ablest and
strongest candidate before the Ameri-
can people. Our choice for the Vice
President is the present Secretary Of the
Treasury, Gen. y. II. Bristow, Of Ken

The New York Uerntd having disCov-
cred that the Republican party mus
tered precisely thirteen candidates for
the Presidency, has now undertaken to
eonfine the list Of Democratic aspirants
to thirteen. II presents this list in the
order named Thomas y. Bayard, Of
Delaware; Samuel J. Tilden, Of New
York; Allen G. Thurman, Of Ohio;
Hendricks, Of Indiana; William Allen,
Of Ohio: Horatio Seymour. Of New
York Jeremiah Black, Of Pennsylvania
Sanford l.. Church, Of New York;
George Il. Mcclellan. Of New Jersey;
Michael G. Kerr. Of Indiana; Asa
Packer, OF Pennsylvania; james T..

The crowd Of Morton men from In
who are ut Columbus are 81
regular delegation. It was determined
in d Morton caucus at indianapolis, last
week, that committees should be sent to
the Republican State Conventions Of
Ohio and Illinois. A part of the clumsy
continuance was that this should not
seem to be pursuant to an arrangement
the Morton takers were to " casually
drop IN" Their work was to talk up
Morton as against Bristow, and espe-
cially to talk loud about the impossi-
bility that the Republican party could,
under any circumstances, trust Ken
tuckian.
ct would appear that the Republi-
cans Of Ohio are thoroughly in earnest
and very little less than unanimous in
presenting the name OF Gov. Hayes to
the Republican National Convention at
Cincinnati. At each Of the county con
ventions, held last week, resolutions in
behalf of his nomination were enthusi-
astically adopted. And if it will appear
at Cincinnati that neither Conkling, nor
Morton, nor either Of the busy BIS can
be nominated, who IL 40 apt to be
chosen as compromise candidate as

fear and without reproach, against
