When Uncle Sam calls the yeas and nays,

All sorts OF puns have been made on
Hayes's name. And now an Ohio editor
declares that he Twill become the fodder

ply for an injunction and stop this wretched
business.

A FIGHT ABOUT MONEY.

There is likely to be fierce fight on the
money question, as prominent greenback
men like VOORHEES, of Indiana, and Ewing
OF Ohio, have been appointed on the Com
mittee on Resolutions. In the Ohio delega-
ton there was protracted fight, which re-
suited in the reelection OF Hon. Thomas
Ewing by twenty-three votes for that com
mittee. This question is so much feared
that number OF delegates are urging the
propriety Of saying nothing on the money
question in the platfarm.
OF the Territories, only Colorado will be
allowed to participate in the Convention.

NEW YORK GERMANS.

1t was stated that in New York Germans
arc for reform, and will be satisfied with
nothing else. They believe T'ilden TO be the
embodiment OF this principle, and favor
him. They care little for platforms or
promises. They are largely Republican,
but are not welded to that party, and are
with the man who had showed himself by
every act OF his official life to be reformer
at the head OF = party. The German vote,
with limited exceptions, will be cast for that
party.

PENNSYLVANIA FOR HANCOCK.

FENNS FaNI+A FUR HNNOVOhs
The hopes OF the opponents OF Tilden
now centre around Pennsylvania. This
State has resolved to vote solid for Han
cock, and to continue to vote for him with
no second choice. Behind this action they
think they will draw to their support enough
votes on the second ballot to prevent the
nomination OF Tilden, and then, William
Allen, OF Ohio, being out of the way, that
State would be added to the Hancock
column, and be followed later by the Hen
bricks supporters. This Is their plan, and
if it should succeed, Pennsylvania would
he able to give the second place to Hon.
Thomas Ewing

THE CRISIS WITH HENDRICKS

The friends OF Hendricks evidently see
the critical nature OF the situation, and are
aiding the effort to prevent two-thirds
vote for Tilden. That now is the only hope
left to the opponents OF the New York can-

miscellaneous Matters.


The Baltimore Gazette correspondent
telegraphing on Sunday, said: "There are
Il few vulgar fellows among the anti-Tilden'
crowd from New York who made them
selves conspicuous by their loud denuncia-
lions OF Tilden. but they invariably encoun-
tered some friend OF Tilden from another
State, and were driven to the WALL
Snowden, OF the Alexandria Gazette, says !:
"Should Hendricks be the lucky man, it is
not at all improbable that Governor Walker,
OF Virginia, may be placed second on the
ticket" s. a;
Also, that ssMr. Goode, OF Virginia, one
OF the National Executive Committee, did
not go out to st. Louis, having business to
detain him at home, and has desired that
the delegation will name his successor, as
he declines a reelection to the position that
he has held for the past eight years.
1t is now declared that Fitz Lee is not for
Hancock, but the winning man.
The statement is made by men who ought
to be well informed that il Thurman is
nominated the Cincinnati Enquirer viii sup
port Hayes or Peter Cooper. s..

delegation will move for o positive express

OLD POLITICIANS.

Old and experienced politicians, who are
seldom wrong in their calculations, but a
little shaken by their strong anti-Tilden
feeling, say they expect to sec in this Con-
vention an exact repetition OF that at Gin
cinnati. They look to see Governor Tilden
lead on the baloting Just as Mr.. Blaine did,
and to see the prize go to General Hancock
lust as at Cincinnati it went to Governor

The st. Louis Globe savagely says: Gen.
eral K. \. Pryor, OF varied and sensational
history, arrived yesterday. He represents
the highly patriotic and conciliatory element
in the New York delegation. He will vote
for Tilden, but admires Davis, Hendricks.
and Thurman, and thinks that any one OF
them could carry New York.
General Pryor is oaly forty-six years OF
age, yet for nearly twenty years he has been
q conspicuous figure in public life. In his
earlier days, when representing his district
in Virginia, he was brought prominently
into notice by the characteristic manner in
which James Gordon Bennett, OF the New
York Herald, revenged himself on him for
an attack made on his paper in the House of
by Mr.. Pryor. The yiru-
lent old Scotch editor, in his press dispatches
OF the proceedings OF the House, would in
terpolate between reported remarks,
speeches. and even after the chaplain's
prayer, the following:

TIE SOUTHERN DELEGATES.

The southern delegates seem to occupy
the same position they did three days ago.
They are willing to accept any man who
promises the best chance Of success at the
polls. Hendricks men profess to be hope
full, but many OF them express disappoint-
ment at the decrease OF his strength during
several weeks past. They cannot account
for this change in sentiment, but admit that
in the East and South especially his strength
has very materially diminished. Pcnnsyl-
vanans say the day after their Convention
was held Hendricks had q three-tifths ma
iority of their delegates: now he has not
