Mr.. Manton Marble rttires from the editorship
of The World, which he has conducted ever since
it became democratic and successful newspaper.
The card in which his successor. Mr.. William
Henry 1furlburt announces the change, leaves the
reasons for it in doubt. But it seems fair 20 infer
that it has appeared undesirable for The Worli to
continue its warm support Of Gov. Tilden Tor the
Presidency, and that Mr.. Marble wa, unwilling to
make the change Mr.. lluiburt is one OF the
most experienced editorial writers in the country.
His brilliant ability is universally lecogLzcd, and
he has in his day been the mainstay of more than
one of the leading newspapers of New York. In
politics he is a iervent democrat, with warm per-
sonal regard for s. nator Bayard.- IribGhe.

BLAINE IN Ne W FORK.

"Burleigh" of the Boston Journal speaks in a
recent letter to that paper of the outlook in New
York for Mr.. Blaine as follows:
Politics are receiving general attention. Men
have no business and have ample leisure to apply
themselves to political matters. The leading no.
tells are full every night and prominent men dis
cuss the affairs Of the nation. This month so far
has been the dullest and most discouraging for
business that New York has known since 1860
Nobody hopes for better times till the Presden-
tial election is settled. The feeling favorable to
Mr.. Blaine has been on the rise for a month. A
large and influential Blaine Club has just been
founded in this city to favor his nomination at
Cincinnati. One is to be founded Immediately in
Brooklyn for the same purpose In Buffalo there
is an organization 700 strong, and they are spring
ing up all over the State. A committee of gen.
temen have secured from the Erie Railroad and
the Atlantic and Great Western favorable terms
of transportation to the Convention. A body of
solid New Workers, 1000 in number, are going to
the Convention to use all honest means to put Mr..
Blaine in nomination. The prominent points of
his character are discussed on the boats, in the
cars and where men most do congregate. His
ability is conceded. His craftsmanship is unques-
toned. He is outspoken and decided on all ques-
tons. His moral character is without stain, his
enemies being Judges. His surroundings will be
pure; and his habits and his company will neither
disgrace his country nor his friends.
There is no movement here that does not rcccg
nize loyalty to the National Convention. The
consummate folly of the democratic party and the
venom exhibited toward the National Government
by the sixty disloyal Confederate soldiers in Con-
gress satisfies the people that the democratic par
ty is not yet fit guardian for American lib.
erty. Conkling has many friends, but they are
not increasing. There is no enthusiasm in his
name lie is politician of the Van Buren, TEN
permanent, without any Jackson to help him along

There is good deal of discussion in
the papers about the recent appointments
by the President, especially that OF Sena.
tor Cameron's son to be Secretary of War,
it being regarded as made to advance the
interests of Senator Conkling as a candi-
date for the Presidency. The convention
at Cincinnati is near at hand, and will
show how much or how little truth there
is in this strained Interpretation of the
President action. 1t is argued that Mr.
Cameron is to hand over the Pennsyl-
vania delegation to Mr.. Conkling in re.
turn for the appointment. The power
which this implies in Mr.. Cameron to con-
troll the men and politics of Pennsylvania
is altogether too much to make the cacu-
lation or surmise worthy Of the attention

OSTRACISfNG ETEN THE LOTALTT
or THE DEMOCRATS.

or THE DEMOCRATS.
The democrats of the State of Texas
have been true to their instincts in the se-
lection of United States Senator. Gov
ernor Coke has succeeded in proving that
his Confederate record to destroy the Union
far outweighs in value the record OF his
opponent, Mr.. Hancock, whose service IN
the Federal army is highly creditable to
him. Mr.. Hancock represents his State
with honor and ability. Governor Coke
has shown himself to be otherwise con-
trolled. What he most relied upon was
his having fought against the Union and
the cause of freedom and although the
cause of the rebellion was lost he ciamored
for and secured his reward.
This is but a sample of what is being
enacted in all the States South under dem
ocratic control. Service in the Federal
army for the preservation OF the Republic
works an absolute disqualification. This
being the fact, how much nearer are we
10 that state of brotherhood which South
erners claim from Northern men? South
erners insist that they were right in the
rebellion and in waging war. In proof
that they were right they tolerate no dill
ference of opinion, and put aside even
men that reside in their section who look
upon the rebellion as wrong. The politl-
cal condition of the South. by this means,
can never be fairly ascertained. Oppon-
ents of the rebel democracy are simply
extingushed. But this extinction process
does not breed concord. There is enor-
nous discomfort existing in the South
which is being kept down by intimidation
or worse. And democrats desire that the
discomfort should not be known. Rebel
sympathzers with a Confederate record
are sent to Congress, who say they come
there by the free suffrage OF the people.
They are disloyal in their talk; and if
they speak in the House have the approval
of their democratic colleagues whenever
they charge the North with cruelty and
meanness. The speech which Mr.. Hill is
waiting to deliver will undertake to make
the North the seat of rebellion and North
ern men the rebels; while the South was
the home of patriotism and the slave own
ers patriots Mr.. Toombs complained
that as the result of the war, the colored
people, whom he detested as men and cit
liens, had been injected into the bowels
OF the body polite. He had no objection
to them as slaves; but as citizens he looked
upon them as beasts, and would always do
his best to prevent their exercising the
franchise Too close an examination
must not be made into the election of the
Legislature in Texas which elected Gov
ernor Coke. And it may be improper to
examine into the election of other Con-
federates. But if Mr. Toombs was justi-
fed in making the complaint he did, have
not the people who put down the rebel
lion a thousand times more cause for com
plant in that the South has let loose on
the floors of the National Legislature 4

The New York Tribune is of the opinion
that Conkling has been gaining slightly
recently and Tilden and Bristow have
been losing. The change of editors and
proprietors Of the New York World is a
circumstance very significant of Tilden' S
waning fortune. and Bristow has been in
iured by the action of the Fifth Avenue
Conference, and the course of indiscreet

woke hostility in quarters previously friend
