In strong anti-Tilden letter the Washing

in the history of our politics there is not a
single example where party was successful
in the November elections which lost all the
great October States. Gas goes Pennsylvania,
so goes the Union," was party watchword,
and political truth that no man formerly
disputed. Pennsylvania now has shifted her
mantle to Ohio and Indiana, and they now
cast the political horoscope three weeks be-
fore election with unerring certainty The
writer admits, moreover, the moral certainty
that this State will go with the party that
carries both Ohio and Indiana in October; and
that with the loss to the Democracy column
in the South will be broken. This comedies
the whole fight. The Republicans will carry
every one of the States named

IT is very evident that Governor Tilden is
gaining strength in the South for the Demo
cratic Presidency. Some of the leading South
ern newspaper organs are coming out in
strong advocacy of him, and ''public senti.

section. The race for the control of the con-
troll of the St. Louis Convention seems to be
narrowing down to Tilden and David Davis.
