The New York Herald of Yesterday,
which was issued simultaneously in New
York and Cincinnati, made q strenuous
fight in favor of the nomination of Senator
Conkling chiefly upon the ground that he
is the only candidate named who can carry
New York against Tilden, whom it says
the Democrats will certainly nominate at
st. Louis in the event of Mr.. Blaine's nom-
ination at Cincinnati, These points were
argued by the Herald with great force and
persistency in several editorials, coupled
with severe structures upon the record of
Mr.. Blaine as contrasted with that of Mr..
Conkling. 1t concludes its leading article
with the following ominous sentence {:
But in accepting or rejecting Mr.. Conk-
4" ling the convention must accept or reject
"the electoral vote of New York" With
out accepting the HerGId's conclusion that
Mr.. Conkling is the only candidate with
which the Republican party can carry
New York, we have no hesitation in agree
ing that he would be the strongest candi-
date that could be selected.

IS PINcHBAcKs cRAN1UM TENDER, I,

Mr.. Pinchback, in his zeal to subserTe
the interest of his especial friends, seems to
have allowed his judgment to get the better
of his discretion. The position assumed by
Mr.. Pinchback in his reputed remarks at
Cincinnati yesterday is altogether untena-
BILE. He declared that the colored race had
not been Justly dealt with, and as panacea
for their troubles he announced his inten-
ton to remain passive spectator in the
approaching political conflict. Mr.. Pinch
back may as well be taught the lesson now
that only as supporter of the general
principles Of the Republican party can he
hope to retain bis hold upon the colored
population of Louisiana. They will follow
his dictation when he is right, but it is rea-
sonably safe to assume that they will not be
guided by him whether right or wrong. 1t
will require but limited stretch of the
imagination to convince Mr.. Pinchbsck that
his threatened disafection to the Republ:-
!. can party will not be more damaging to the
same than was that Of Greeley and his Co
laborers 10 the campaign of 1872. More
over, there are striking instances in the
South where colored politicians of but slight
intellectual inferiority to Mr.. Pinchback
have ceased to be influential with their race
when they departed from the principles of
the party which did so much for them.
Conspicuous among this class is Mr.. Car
dozo, of South Carolina, whose Republi-
canism seems to have vanished as his purse
became full. We scarcely think, however,
that in his reflective mood Mr.. Pinchback
will endeavor to disaffect his race from the
party which transformed them from human
chattels into citizens of the United States.
His efforts in such an attempt will most
assuredly prove abortive. His failure to
get the seat to which we thought him enti-
tied in the Senate was greatly deplored by
us. His manly bearing during the trying
ordeal excited our admiration, and the
philosophy with which he accepted his de-
feat led us to expect better things of him
than are reported now from Cincinnati
We gave him credit for more hard sense
than the genus sorehead.

A VICTIM OF MAL-ApMIN1sTRATIoN.

The abuse of the pardoning power by the
Governor of South Carolina is bearing its
sad fruits all over that State. The assassin
is now in his glory, and even the marriage
altar il not spared from his hellish en-
croachments. Hitherto the sea-coast coun-
ties of South Carolina have enjoyed sin
gular immunity from crime. This was
attributable to the fact that in those local
it!es the school master was "at home"
besides, the denizens were descended from
the .Huguenots, and were in ell respects q
superior people 10 the residents of the upper
counties of the State. A sad, and in that
locality, an unprecedented tragedy recently
occurred at Grahamville, village in Beau
fort county. below Charleston. Col. ST.
Clair Dearing, highly esteemed gentle
man of Augusta, Ga, q member of one Of
the best known families of that city, had
wooed and won the belle of Grahamyille,
a sparkling brunette named Miss Julia
Gregory. whose beauty and accomplish.
ments were proverbisl in the neighboring
cities of Savannah and Charleston. The
happy pair had just been united at the
village church, and had repaired to the
depot preparatory to taking bridal tour.
In the midst of the pleasurable greetings
and fsrewells which were being bestowed
upon the bride, rejected suitor suddenly
appeared upon the scene, and discharged
The contents OF a gun into the side of the
groom, killing him instantly. This dia-
bolical act has thrown peaceful commu-
nifty into mourning, rs the bride was a
general favorite, aud highly esteemed by
all classes for her gentleness and worth.
There is no Disgusting the fact that the
mal-admInistration of Chamberlain has
greatly demoralized all classes in South

The Extradition Treaty with Englani

II rom the New i ork herald.I
From the Standard, the Cabinet organ in
the London press, we. have a curious utter
ance on the attitude of the English Govern
ment on the question of the extradition treaty
with this country. At the same time the
President has laid before the House of Repre-
sentatiyes brief report from Secretary Fish
on the matter, together with the correspond
ence, of which we have already given the
main points. The Standard, speaking semi
officially for MIR. Disraeli, comedies that the
American position on the Interpretation of the
treaty, and possibly, also, on the application,
or, rather want of application, ofthe act of1s7O
to the treaty, is technically right" but adds
unaccountably that our position is also 'fsub-
stantially wrong" Leaving such odd logic
to its self-destruction we meet with prop
osition in the same article which may
fairly be put as follows: The British
Government being technically wrong in the
position it has reluctantly" taken, we
must hope that the United States Gov
eminent will soon find itself in a position
to assent TO an Interpretation of the pres
ent treaty or the conclusion of q new
enc which will insure the objects
the two Governments have in view, for the
British Government cannot depart from Its
present position. There is a massive GOODNESS
about this, particularly that portion which
suggests that America should assent to an ad-
mittedly wrong Interpretation of document
which, from its very nature, must have tech
nical construction that is absolute. Mr.. Fish,
in his able correspondence, has left Earl Derby
| literally nothing tostand upon, except unli-
censed stubbornness. Hence, we cannot won
der that it should be as difficult for sp "organ"
TO find arguments for an official in such an at
titude as 1t was for the servant Goldsmith tells
| Of to give plausibility TO the story of his
lordly master, who said he shot buck through
| the right hind leg and ear with the same
bullet. The servant, after scratching his
| head, did 1t by saying that the buck was
scratching his ear; but he begged his master,
| in a whisper, "For Gods sake, don't make 4:
so hard to make both ends meet" The task
given the Standard was more difficult, or the
| writer less ready witted, for we find that he
can only wiggle into the difficulty and not out
of It.
Mr.. Fish in mis- report confines himself on
| the vexed question TO the simple but emphatic
statement that "Great Britain has declined to
I surrender the fugitiyes unless the Govern
! ment Of the United States would give certain
stipulatioDs or make certain guarantees not
contemplated or provided for by the treaty
between the two Governments" Since IL is
admitted on all hands that the treaty does
not contemplate or provide for the guarantees
the British Government demand, and that,
notwithstanding Earl Derby refuses TO sur

50 FAR all goes well at Cincinnati.
The proceedings of yesterday were
marked by the care and deliberation which
are the precursors of success. There was
nopellmell rushing to a conclusion, that
was feared by some and hoped for by
others, indicative Of higher regard for
men than for party; for personal prefer
ence than for the success of principles.
The convention adjourned early
for wise delberation upon questions of
vital importance. 1t was known that the
leading Democrats of New York had
counted with certainty upon the nomination
of Mr.. Blaine, and had laid their plans to
defeat his election. They will nominate
Tflden to beat him in New York, and the
latter has indicated his willingness to ex-
pend three millions of his princely fortune
to forward. the campaign. Can we
dispense with the vote of New
York? Dare we take the risk of
trying to get along without her thirty
five votes? Can We carry New York
with Blaine as strongly as for any other
candidate? As goes New York so goes
Connecticut and New Jersey. The votes
of these States, together with those of
the united South, will be sufficient to
elect Mr.. Tilden next President. These
are some of the facts which the chairmen
of the delegations in Cincinnati met to
consider last night. And it was a wise
thing to do. 1t had ceased entirely to
be question of persons and was trans
formed into question of policy, of svail-
ability, Of final triumph. On such occa-
sions mere men are obliged to take back
seats. Party exigencies and principles
come to the front and dictate terms as the
price of success. Mr.. Blaine is the last
person in the world to desire the sacrifice
of his party to crafty personal vanity or
ambition. He has no desire to run to GER
tain defeat. Therefore if the convention,
in its wisdom, shall determine that the party
cannot develop the same strength or
sufficient strength to insure success under
his candidacy that it can with that of an
other, we feel assured that Mr.. Blaine will
desire to have his name withdrawn and
that other substituted in its stead. With such
feeling prevailing in the Republican coun-
cils in Cincinnati last night, there need be
but little fear of the result of the balloting.
The men who, on the whole, shall be
deemed the strongest, will be chosen.
And this is the consummation most de-
youtly to be wished by US all.

TIE sham Reform Governor of South
Carolina offers a reward of $1,000 for his
friend McDevitt, runaway county treasurer
of Edgefeld county, and only $500 for the
men who took out of jail and murdered six
negroes merely suspected of murder 1t is
not easy to understand why the great diff
ference in the rewards, unless he wants
McDeVitt back for the State convention, as
it was his vote that sent Chamberlain to
Cincinnati as q delegate, and perhaps he
thinks his vote would nominate him in

The political prophet is not so bewildered
as he was. Yesterday the scenes about the
hotels and on the curbstones were that of in
tense excitement. The bulletin boards at
tracted crowds as the magnet attracts needles.
Early morning bets were being made about
even that Blaine would or would not receive
the nomination. AS the sun approached the
zenith a material change took place. The
bulletin indications were that Mr.. Blaine
would receive the nomination on the first or
second ballot. Private dispatches came food
ing in from Cincinnati, addressed to betting
men, assuring them that everything would be
safe that vas staked on Blaine. AS the shad-
ows Of twilight began to fall upon the city
men commenced betting 500 to $50 that the
gentleman from Maine would be chosen as the
Republican standard-bearer, and could find no
takers. This proves what we asserted before,
that the political prophet is not SO bewildered
as he was.

Reader, If 1t is ever your privilege to be in
the gallery of the House just take the pains to
cast glance at Benjamin Hill, of Georgia.
At the beginning of the present session this
mans friends predicted for him . brilliant
career, but unfortunately 1t flashed In the pan.
He made speech, and at the close of 1t when
he thought himself famous and his victory
complete Mr.. Blaine swooped down upon him
and nipped all his bright hopes and pretty
fancies in the bud. This is why we ask you
to look at him now. He looks SO sad and
strangely complaceut, so full of speech and
yet so curbed to utteraDce. With green and
yellow melancholy look he sits like patience
on sideboard mourning over split milk.
