for the Presidency, and as this is the
main issue it is not worth while
to quarrel about minor matters
Let US have peace in the family.
Then if Mr.. Bayard should receive the
nomination at St. Louis, we will be all
the more ready and able to work har-
moniously together, to give him big
majority in his native State, as we'll as

OPPOSITION TO Gov. TILDEN. is
being developed that Gov. Tilden's
presidential aspirations have epcoun-
tered the opposition of a number Of
the leading New York DEM
ocrats, including Judge Sanford E.
Church and Mr.. Erastus Corning. In
an interview with World reporter
Judge Church declared that New York
bad no claims to the nomination, and
that in his Judgment no one should be
pressed from that State. Mr.. Corning
expressed the opinion that,if nominated.
Gov. Tilden could not command the
entire democratic vote of New York,
for the reason, as be said, that "the
Governor had alienated from him a
large portion of the best sentiment of
the democratic party in all parts of the
State of New York" A caucus Of
about forty prominent New York dem
ocrats was held at Albany on Wednes-
day evening. at which, it is said. a
comparison Of views demonstrated the
fact that every one present regarded
the nomination of Gov. Tilden for the
presidency as the most unfortunate
thing that could happen to the party.
Speeches to this purport were made BY
Hon. J. v L. Rruyn. ex-Gov John
T. Hoffman, Judge Amasa J. Parker
and ex-Speaker Littlejohn.

astonish his rivals.
The New York Tribune says Mr..
Blaine being the most versatile. adroit
and powerful in intellectual resources
Of all the candidates, whoever attempts
to count him out on the strength of re-
cent revelations only makes a mistake.
The worst thing we have heard about
Mr.. Kerr is that General Butler has
written him complimentary letter,
begging him not to be worried by an
Infamous conspiracy As though Kerr
hadn't trouble enough without Butler
chipping in.
1t puzzles the Boston Herald to see
how Blaine could have derived most of
bis wealth, as be says he did. from his
Monongahela coal lands. considering
that be paid $21 900 for the property
thirteen years ago, and has never de-
rived any income from it. as the coal
has not been worked. and that the prop

But perhaps the Herald doesn't know.
SENATOR BAYARp AHEAn.-Just now
Senator Bayard. says the Worcester
(Mass. Spy, seems to be ahead Of all
the other Democratic candidates for
nomination at St. Louis. He has all
along been the favorite candidate of the
southern wing of the party, and the
drift Of preference among the northern
Democrats seems now turning towards
him and if nothing shall OCCUR to change
or check it, it is not unlikely that he
will get the nomination.

THE CINCINNATI CoNvENTIoN-The
Republican National Convention will
meet at Cincinnati on Wednesday next
Among the many aspirants for the NOM
ination. at its hands, for the Presidency
the most prominent are Hon. James G
Blaine, Of Maine; Hon 0 P. Morton,
of Illinois; Hon. Roscoe Conkling, Of
New York. and probably Hon. Benz. H
Bristow. Of Kentucky, though at pre-
sent his prospects are not very bright.
Mr.. Blaine is at present the strongest
candidate. there being, it is said, some
three hundred and two delegates in his
favor. This is not, however, enough
to secure his nomination The whole
number Of delegates is 1856, majority
Of which is three hundred and eighty
nine, so that unless Mr.. Blaine can get
some votes from delegates who now
favor some one of the other candidates,
be cannot secure the nomination. But
in all probability he will get those votes
and will be the party's candidate in the
coming election. Mr.. Conkling's claims
are pressed upon the Convention on the
ground that he, and he alone, is be-
lieved to be sufficiently popular to carry
bis State, New York, and so large
State cannot well be dispensed with
But, then, he is President Grants can
lidate, and that plays the mischief with
bis aspirations The "bloody shirt" por-
lion of the party prefer Morton. He is
as bitter denouncer Of the South and
opposer Of peace as Blaine. and as he
has been at it longer they think he
ought to have the preference. Bristow
is the favorite of the more honest and
portion Of the party. and
therefore the weakest of all the candi-
lates. The deliberations Of the Gin
,innati Convention are looked forward
% with much interest.

FRATERNAL RELATIONS. Great events
are transpiring with such rapidity in
these times that the pen of the chroni-
cler can scarcely, even with the utmost
diligence. keep pace with them. Our
remarks last week in reference to the
action of the General Assemblies of
the two great branches Of the Presby-
terian church we're premature and, as
events have since shown, altogether
wrong. The overture of peace and
brotherly love made by the Northern
Assembly to their brethren Of the
South have been received by the latter
in the same spirit of amity. and fair
way is now opened for speedy reunion
of the two bodies. The feeling has
been extended from the Assemblies to
the presbyteries, and from them to the
people. and general and generous
sentiment seems to pervade the whole
church that the time has come for
christians to cease from their petty ami
mosities and join hearts and hands for
the spread Of christianity and the ex-
tention of their Masters kingdom.
We may confidently look forward to
q complete and more perfect union of
The two Presbyterian Churches at the
next annual meeting Of the General
Assemblies, if not before. Then
further advance must be made, and
gradually the Cumberland Presbyter-
ians, the Reformed Presbyterians, and
all other branches of that church, be
brought into the union. Then, as union
is strength. as one body, its power and
influence for good will be greatly en-
hanced, until no adversary will be able
to gainsay or withstand it.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH %.

The BLACK HILLs.-A Chicago interviewer
has obtained from an army officer of high rank,
who has Just returned from the Black Hills, an
interesting account of the state OF affairs 10
that region, coupled with good advice 10 those
who propose to emigrate to the new Eldorado.
He believes there is some gold to be found In
the district already opened, and that region
still further north and still more dangerous
probably contains richer mineral deposits, but
be says that such au idea as going gold
mining up there, with Swarms of hostile To-
dams to meet them, is the most preposterous
folly that too creduous people ever took into
their heads In the district already occupied
by miners, he says, they have no army protec-
ton, as it is within an acknowledged reserVa-
tioo, and although they are comparatively safe
from Indian attacks at present, on account OF
the fact that Gen. Crook is in pursuit OF the
hostile savages, the settlers are suffering many
privations for which they have thus lar re-
ceived but sorry recompense. tic says the
great majority of the poor, deluded people go
ing there are broken down city people, some
of them recruited from Philadelphia, who have
been swindled by the frontier sharpers who
provide outfits for such parties, and that they
find themselves ushered into new country,
into what is, for the most Of them, wholly
impossible life, and at their wits ends to pre-
serve themselves from starvation a number
of painful incidents and detaiis pointing TO the
same general conclusions We're described. :
There is uuhapplly dark eide to nearly all
frontier life, and 10 the Black Hills it probably
reaches its blacklist hues.-Phila. Record.
