TILDEN'S TUMBLE.

On the smallest possible capital it was
announced, after a short struggle in
favor of railroads and against the canal
interests of New York, that Samuel J.
Tilden was reform Governor. He was
advertised as such, and all the more zeal
ously because it was difficult to see the
reason for such title. His administra-
ton so disguised the Democratic party
as to decrease the party vote by about
thirty thousand in the election subse-
quent to his own. But the ambition of
MI. Tilden did not fall off with the Demo-
cratic vote. As he became unpopular in
his State, he placed his eagle eye on the
White House. The Office of President
was not seeking the man Tilden, but the
man Tilden was seeking the Office. He is an
excellent business man and good adver-
tiser. He advertised himself as reform
Governor, and he has been advertising
himself for the White House. His cards
are not clouded with modesty. They
partake of the unblushing cheek of Bar
mum, who calls himself the greatest show
man on earth. It has been explained to
the satisfaction of the New York World
that Tilden did not directly employ the
advertising firm Of Bates & Locke to set
forth his merits to the country. As that
firm dealt with the papers of the South
and West, the World appears to have
had nothing to do with the matter.
The Cincinnati Enquirer is a better
Democratic paper than the World,
md it is severe and earnest in its castiga- |
ions Of the scheming Samuel. The En-
luirer gives 1.-THE circular Of Mr.. Tilden's |
agents and the kind of rascally matter |
hey propose to pay Western publishers
or examining down the throats Of unsus-
'ecting readers" Had the plan not been
xposed the name Of Mr.. Tilden would
ave been a. familiar 90 sewing machine

THE SKUaaLER AND THE POLITICIANS.
The abuses which may prevail in any
large establishment are well known.
Cashiers have sometimes absorbed the
whole capital of bank in their private
adventures. Partners transfer the entire
assets Of the concern to their own side Of
the ledger, and balance the account by
Ascending. The abuses which have
been practiced in places Of revenue col
lection are twolold-the patronage of
the appointments and the regulations on
the Office holders for political purposes
To this may b. added the gain Of paying

s6liaS Spohnkhe moo aesmsnIs Of either
u these interests Isl tho restoration Of
prosperity? Does not Democratic ascend
ency imply . continued political excite
ment and prescription for opinions sake7
VIII not this State fall from one political
paroxysm into another until she staggers
and falls into the epilsptic lethargy of ex-
hausted force?
+ 1t is, at least, as little as t'the gentle
men Of Louisiana" can do to tell ssthe
workingmen" how they mean to relieve
their necessities and afford them employ
ment To tell them that every Repub-
lican is an enemy whom they must first
prescribe in his business, expel or assassi-
nate, is no explanation. The workingmen
will require to know what the Democracy
can and will do, if such ruinous behest
shall have been executed. We have sup
posed Democratic ticket elected. We
will 60 further, and suppose every Repub-
lican annihilated, and the very word I'M
known. twill depend on the Democracy
to tell ''the workingmen" how such state
of industrial anarchy would afford them
bread OF wages?
The Democratic promise to relieve the
industrial wants in six months after being
put in possession of all the Offices, would
go to protest with other Democratic
pledges, and those unlucky indorsers,
''the workingmen," would have to take up
the obligations in toll and restitution.

dren Of The great VEST nd Ne unsus-
pecting South would have cried for him,
and no Democratic family voaA have
been without him. Il is useless to say the
advertisements were weak invention Of
the enemy; they were weak invention Of
Samuel. The unwashed ses through them
and him, and the so-called reformer is
put away on the shelf, with George Fran
els Train and Daniel Pratt, as man
whose merits do not come up to his own
estimation Of his fitness for position to
be filed by one invited by the people.
Being Democrat, Mr.. Tilden is defended
very family by few Democratic papers,
as if all means used were fair in the war
Of politics; but the advertiser is not now
looked upon as probable man. He had
worked himself up to dizzy height and
he has tumbled.
