Tn. Democratic Canvass for Governor.

Tho Democratic Canvass for Governor.
The fact that no democratic leader is
prominently named for Governor shows that
there is some ground for the statement that
a strong pressure will be brought upon
Horatio seymour to accept the nomination.
1t is known that Mr.. Seymour does not wish
this Office, that he has retired from politics,
that under ordinary circumstances he would
spurn tho offer. But Tilden's friends argue
that the romantic ideal prominence of Mr..
Seymour in the democracy would bind the
party like sheaf and draw out every vote.
So far rs Mr.. Seymour is concerned we ques-
tion If it is wise for any man, no matter
how renowned he may be, to permit himself
to be used as a political strengthening plas-
ter Nor is it altogether respectful to the
Empire State to have its chief Office forced
upon reluctant candidate who would re-
gard it as penance. The Office of Governor
lis only second in importance to that of the
Presidency, and the honor of New York de-
mands that it should be thus forced upon
no man, no matter how illustrious There are
twenty leaders in the party men of expe-
rience and gifts, who would do as we'll in
the Governorship as Mr.. Seymour, and to
whom it would be gracious honor not a
mere political expedient, to aid the national
campaign.
There is one democrat whom we should
all delight to honor, and whose nomination
for the Governorship would, in the end, do
Mr.. Tilden as much good rs that of Sey-
mour. We mean Manton Marble, the former
editor of the World, and for nearly fifteen
years the leading democratic journalist of
the country. AS journalist Mr.. Marble is
well known to the country, but better known
to his fellow journalists. The press of New
York, without distinction of party, will bear
witness to his ability, his patriotism, his
fine executive, business training, his clear
ness of mind, his integrity, his de-
votion to the best interests Of his party
and the Republic. These are the quail
ties we desire in Governor. There is
no man in the democratic party, not even
Mr.. Seymour, who would make better Gov
ernor than Mr.. Marble. We question
if any would make better canvass. 1t
would be a stroke of rare fortune if Uncle
Sammy were to put Mr.. Marble at the head
of the State ticket. If elected New York
would have Governor worthy ofthe name
man who would do well every duty that
the Office involved, and whose administra-
ton would rebound to the credit of the
Empire State.

The PuLpITs YESTERDAY. The noted faces
among the ministry of the city continue to
disappear from their pulpits for season Of
rest and recreation in the country or by the
sea, and if the churches are not closed alto
gether the country parson is heard raising
his voice to heaven. If the sermon Of the
latter lacks the beauty and polish of the
minister he replaces perhaps it tells the
old story of redemption little more directly
and with less stretching out of the fingers of
the mind to grasp up illustration from the
topics of the day. Our sermon reports else
where contain much of this plain, whole.
some soul food, which the Christian reader
can digest with benefit.

Presidency. The sagacious mind of Mr..
and attempts have been made, hitherto
without success, to apply the amendatory
power of the States to its correction. As,
however, one mode of correction is
in the power of every President,
and consequently in mine, it would
be useless and. perhaps, invidious,
to enumerate the evils and the bitter fruits
of this error of the sages who framed the
constitution" Il give my aid to the de-
sired object by renewing the pledge, here
tofore given, that under no circumstances
will l consent to serve second term"
1t may not be out of place to
subjoin to these precedents President

constitution giving the election of the Presi-
dent directly to the people "In connec-
ton with such an amendment" said Jack

Here, then, are the points which the Gov
ernor should make with due EMPHASIS
Reform, one term, protection to the South,
specie payment, pacifcation to the South
and repose to the country. This letter he
should write at once and in doing So take
command of his canvass. The impression
has gone abroad that between Hendricks and
himself there is an irreconcilable difference
which can only be settled by a juggle; that
Hendricks is pulling against him as Blair
pulled against Seymour, and thatin the end
the country will be deceived MS Polk de-
ceived it on the tariff question: The Gov
ernor must put an end to this, or it will
destroy his canvass. He must do so at
once, even if it is necessary to say to Hen

dency, the chosen leader of the party, that
as its leader he must be obeyed, and if Hen
bricks is dissatisfied he must 60 off the

PARKE GOODWIN ON TIIDEN. THE canvass
is becoming moony and shows the effect of
the warm weather An observer as cool and
experienced as Parke Goodwin has given
some reasons for his support of Tilden. "If
Tilden were President" says Mr.. Goodwin,
Sin less than three months we should see our
finances on their best feet, taxation reduced
n half and the currency in sure way to re-
covery by gentle and almost imperceptible
means. What is more, we should see tides
of Northern capital flowing into the South
to turn its rich natural resources into unex-
ampled prosperity If Mr.. Tilden can do
all of this he is the man to be made Presi-
dent for life, and the democrats are to be
congratulated upon having so mighty can
didate. We wish that Mr.. Goodwin would
tell us how the election of any one man to
an Office in which he is trammelled by con-
stitutional limitations will do for this coun-
try more than n Napoleon, with all of his
power. could do for France. If Mr.. Goodwin
can make this point clear he will benefit the
Tilden canvass.

BRIsTow AND GRANT. Tho position taken
by Bristow in refusing to testify to anything
that has ever taken place in the Cabinet be-
tween himself and the President would be
tenable but for one reason. He and his
friends, or, perhaps, to speak with precision,
his friends alone. havo filed the country
with the idea that the President was the OBJ
stacle to Bristow's suppressing the Whiskey
Ring, that the prosecution was distasteful to
him, and that in all of Bristows efforts to
reform the revenue the President was in his
way. This is certainly the impression that
was conveyed to the country. 1t was the
basis of the generous support which Bristow
received for the Presidency. If this is true
then the President was guilty of a crime for
which he should be impeached. If Mr..
Bristow knows it to be true and refuses TO
inform Congress then he condones the Pres

unteers.

There will not be any forward movement
against the defiant Sioux for at least two
weeks. The Fifth cavalry cannot reach
Crooks camp on Goose Creek before that
time. With the cavalry and friendly (O
Indians Crooks forces will not amount to
more than two thousand five hundred men.
We think that he should have at least five
thousand. Too much stress cannot be laid
upon the statement of Colonel Hughes
telegraphed us on Saturday from Bismarck,
that he doubts if the troops under Terry
as reinforced will be able to engage the
Indians Terry's force does not exceed
one thousand four hundred men. Here, then,
are two bodies of troops, each expected to
attack force of from five thousand to seven
thousand Indians posted in chosen places of
the greatest natural strength. 1t seems lit
tie short of madness. The difficulty of COM
munication between the two columns is con-
siderable, and such being the case con-
certed attack requiring great precision OF
movement is all but impracticable. There
fore nt least one of the columns-that is, the
should be equal if not superior
to the enemy, while the other column should
be strong enough to advance to certain
positions and hold them until the
main column had reached and struck the
body of the enemy. There is no good reason
why each of the columns should not number
five thousand men. Then not only victory
would be assured but escape rendered i'm
possible. Next to the all important neces-
sity of soundly whipping the Sioux is that
of preventing the defeated bands from scat
tering and returning to the agencies The
General and the Lieutenant General are
surely aware of this and cannot have any
confidence that the present forces in the
field can accomplish this double purpose.
This war should not be merely battue for
the purpose of killing some of the Indians
who may stand to fight our troops, but to
teach the Sioux and their allies for all time
that the warpath is the road to de-
struction The United States should
put at least five thousand additional
men in the field. We do not for moment
accept the excuse that soldiers enough are
not to be spared from the East and the
South. They remain idle in both sections.
But, supposing that the highest authority
in the land refuses to give the troops to
Sherman, are our troops to be led to slaugh-
ter and our frontier settlements to be
ravaged by the victorious Indians? Are our
arms to be again humbled and millions on
millions squandered in long and painful
war? If the President will not give the
troops let him call for volunteers from the
West. Five thousand men with just the
right experience could be raised west of the
Mississippi in ten days. There are officers
enough to spare.
The New York herald., 1876-07-24
A Feeble Prudential Canvass.

Governor Tildens menace in his little
speech at Albany, just after his nomination,
that the campaign would be aggressive"
seems an addition to the long catalogue of
instances in which the vigor of the war did
not come up to the pomp of the manifesto.
The canvass has been at dead halt since
the nomination of the candidates. Instead
of the vigorous aggressiveness which Mr.
Tilden was so prompt to threaten he and his
party are acting with the timidity which is
the natural consequence of divided counsels
We do not doubt Mr.. Tilden's disposition to
"move on the works of the republicans,
but he is threatened with a fire in the
rear from the soft money column of his
own party. His aggressive campaign"
reminds us of General McClellan's dila-
tory strategy in the first year of the
civil war, when the staple announce
ment on the bulletin boards of the
newspapers was, "All is quiet on the
Potomac" Governor Tilden dares not pub
lish his letter of acceptance, lest it should be
stultifed by the action Of the democratic
members Of Congress. He has evinced less
than his usual boldness in quailing before
such an obstacle. If he had come out in a
powerful letter. without waiting to consult
with Hendricks and without giving time for
the Hendricks intrigue with Western men,
bers of Congress to ripen, he might now be
master of the situation. When he had
formally promulgated his views no section
OF the democratic party would have put
itself in opposition to the democratic candi-
date; but his appearance of vacillation en-
boldens the bad elements of the party and
makes it more and more difficult for him to
prosecute an aggressive campaign" Imme-
diately after his great triumph at st. Louis he
should have taken the imitation bull
by the horns by publishing such
manifesto as would have compelled
the infationists to ..'hde their diminished
heads" His delay and the intirm;ty of
purpose it discloses give free scope to the
Hendricks intrigue, and it is possible the
soft money Congressman may put the party
in such position that Governor Tilden will
be compelled to speak with bated breath"
He could have foreclosed and shut off this
debilitating muddle in Congress had he
''taken time by the forelock" He could
have made it impossible for the soft money
democrats to carry on their intrigue without
placing themselves in direct opposition to
the democratic candidate The timid, dila-
tory course he is pursuing is making his men
ace of an aggressive campaign ridiculous.
If the democratic Samson dallies with the
perfdious Deilah until she cuts off his locks
there will be long farewell to all his hopes
of IAN aggressive campaign"
