Tho Cincinnati Enquirer on Tildon's Nom
i0aliOn.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Enquirer, writing the night the
news of Tilden's nomination at St. Louis
was received in Washington, says:
All interest at the capital to-day has CEN
tered in the proceedings at the st. Louis
convention, although there has not been as
much excitement as over the Clncinnatl
convention. All indications here point to
the nomination of Tilden, and five out OF
nine Democrats of any prominence say TINS
would defeat the Democracy at the coming
election.
PAYNE, of Ohio, thinks the nomination is
a splendid one, and only needs Hendricks to
support the nomination. Hendricks friends
are telegraphipg him tonight to accept the
nomination for Vice President. There 10 no
doubt but that he will. Those who know him
best say he never declined any thing. SEN
ator Merton says he will accept. He says he
would accept anything. from spittOon
cleaner in the Indiana Legislature up to
the Presidency; but Senator Morton is pre-
iudiced against Governor Hendricks. Ham
ilton, of Maryland; Meade. OF New York,
and Lane, of Oregon, are about the only
Congresmsen who have gone wild over the
nomination. Savage, Neal, McMahOnj and
Sayl0r, of Ohio, are very sad.
When the nomination of Tilden was an
nOunced there was no cheering among the
crowd around the telegraph office: Men
looked at each other in mute ACCOMPLISHMENT
The only demonstration was the firing OF
five guns by the Jackson Association, when
powder gave out Some Congressman indOrse
the nomination, and think it the strongest
that could have been made, but they are
few. After the announcement that Iilden
was nominated you could have knocked
two-thirds of the Democrats in Washington
down with feather. Ohio men were dumb
founded when they learned that Ohio had
aided in Tilden's nomination.
The Enquirer says, editorially, IN its
issue of Thursday morning:
The nomination will fall heavily upon
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas and some
other Western States. There will be re-
vulsion all along the centre, for the party,
in its wisdom, has virtually abandoned
these States.
We have many sentiments in common
with Tilden. We have none in common
with HAYES. What we have said in OppOsi-
ton to Mr.. Tllden-Our arguments to prove
his unttness for the leadership in this great
struggle-must stand. the party, in its
wisdom, has overlooked these potent
reasons, and if they now serve the enemy
we can't help it. The Democrats of Ohio
feel resentful toward Mr.. Tilden and the
element Of the party which he represents.
They feel that they have cause to dislike
him, and it will be difficult matter to
bring the strength of the organization to
his support. We shall feel it our duty to
counsel harmony, for the organization of
the Democratic party must be preserved

A TOUCHING INCIDENT.

The struggle 10 keep up appearances Is
ono OF the sudcst things in the world it
has additional mourntulne.s whom child
is the actor in the usually hopeless en-
doavor:
just before the close Of last session OF
the public schools in st. Louis, M Incl
dem occurred, which MS an Illustration,
is more than touching. Az one Of tho
public schools numbers Of tho pupils
were in the habit OF bringing luncheon
with them, which at noon they nto to
gether.
Among those that did not 60 home for
dinner, the teacher in n particular room
noticed little girl who always sat look
ing wisttully at her paymates when they
went out with their luncheon, but who
never brought any herself. Tho child
was neatly bat plainly clad, and ono OF
the closest Of students when in school
This odd action of the child's lasted somo
Time, when one lny he had apparently
brought her dinner with her.
The noon hour came, and the childron
took their lunch rs usual and went out to
eat it, the little girl referred to alone re-
manning in the room with her dinner
wrapped mp in paper on the desk. Tho
tencher advanced to the child, and asked
her why she didn't 20 out to eat with the
rest, mt the same time putting her hand
toward the package on the desk. Quick
IA. thought, the girl cluspcd her hands
over il, and exclaimed, sobbing
"Don't touch it, tcacher and don't
tell, plea.c. Its only blocks"
And that was the nct. Having no
dinner To- bring, and being too proud to
reveal the poverty Of her family, the
child had carefully wrapped upa mum
Der Of small blocks in paper, aud brought
the package to present the appearance
ofa lunch. It was nothing nero ri-
dicuou- incident in school lie, but II
was sufficient To make fellow whl
heard the story feel bad.
