MONTGOMERY BLAIR
has created a very pcrccptible stirin
political circles in Washington, by
the publication of letter in favor Of
Tilden. The fact that Mr.. Blair is
not Tilden man from personal pref
erence, but from what he conceivcs
to be party necessity, gives more
weight to his views than they would
otherwise have. One thing is no
ticcable in connection with this sub
ject; there is growing disposition to
consider the interest Of the party as
a unit, rather than the interest of
any one section or faction. The man
who can carry the most States will
be the nominee, if these wise coun-
sells prevail; and, whoever he may be,
Hendricks, Thurman, Bayard, Til
den, Davis or Parker, he will receive
the united support of a party organ
lied for success, and not to be defeat
ed by internal dissension. And to
insure success beyond the chance of
failure, he must be the man who can
draw the largest support from the
ranks of the enemy. Mr.. Blair, who
was 4 member of Lincoln's Cabinet,
says that Tilden is the man, and Of
fers 4 strong argument to prove it,
There are men here to-day, bitterly
opposed to Tilden, because of his at
titude on the money question; but !
believe, from the tone of convcrsa-
ton here during the past few days,
that there is Il determination to do
nothing that will imperil our success
in the coming election,
A GOOD WORD FOR THE DEMOCRATIC
HOUSE.
The dissemination of news from
every portion of the civilized world
to every other portion, by telegraph,
has made the correspondent a COM
menter upon, rather than an an
nouncer Of, events. Just at this
time, Washington is the scene of rap
idly succeeding incidents of vital in
terest to the country; and to faithful
ly chronicle the details of each days
news would take more space than
many times the limits of Il letter.
Many things Of Importance occur to
which do not even alludG; because,
before my letter can reach you, your
readers will have become familiar
with the facts through the telegraph.
But the telegraph can do no more
than furnish brief outlines, and it is
still the province of the correspond
ent to supply the substance of such
information as may be of special in
tcrest to the reader, The correspond
ent whom you know, and upon whose
truthfulncss you can depend, is of
special Importance to your readers
at this time, when it is the univer-
sal complaint of our party that the
telegraph has been used against us
in an attempt to create public opin-
ion adverse TO the Democratic House.
No Congress has ever labored harder
or accomplished more in the same
length Of time, than has the present
one; yet the impression has gone
through the country that valuable
time has been wasted, and nothing
done. The work done has been,
much Of it, of u character that rem
ders secrecy II necessity. And, while
the House may have appeared to do
little, the committees have labored
necessarily, night and day In adj
dition to the necessary legislation, it
has dovolved upon the House to un.
