FROM WASHINGTON.

aHFa uaIfa
MR.. TfLDEH AND TIiE EIxcToRAL coUN7
why HE DID NOT INsIsT UPoN ms
MeHrs-yIEwsoF Mr.. 1lLDEN.
wAsInNGfos, May 22-An. eminent
citizen Of Alabama, who passed through
Washington yesterday on his way back
from New York, had, while in that city
an interview with MIR. Tilden. He said
to Mr.. Tilden that the people of the South
were convinced that he had been fairly
and lawfully elected to the office OF Pres
ident of the Bnited States that the
people of that section, in common with
the great body of the people OF the whole
United States, thought that Mr.. Tilden,
rs the lawfully elected ruler of the coun-
try, should have taken early after the
election decided attitude and insisted
upon his rights /; that had he done so,
and the proper announcement of the vote
of the electoral colleges been prevented,
the House of Representatives would have
elected HIM according to the forms of
law, and made itself, responsible for his
induction into the office which belonged
TO him.
Mr.. Tilden listened intently to the re-
marks of his visitor, gentleman nearly
twenty years his senior. He replied that
he had thought carefully and most con-
scientiously over the subject in all its
possible phases that he had become con-
vinced that should he adopt the course
suggested 1t would be resisted by the
radical party to the extent of drenching
the land in blood that he shrank from
the responsibility Of precipitating another
terrible civil war upon his countrymeD,
and consented to the compromise which
averted 30 dread a disaster. He felt as
keenly as any one the impropriety of the
means by which the present result had
been brought about, but, for all that, he
did not regret his own action. As 1t was
the people of the United States under
stood 1t; the democratic party to-day
occupied such proud attitude before the
country as it had never occupied before,
and no mortal power could resist its tri-
umphal march TO success in 1880.

IMPRoviNe.-It appears to be the gen.
eral sentiment that the depression in
business has reached the bottom. We
have been long time in getting there
and we hope we are not mistaken in the
supposition. But it is quite evident that
there is more cheerfulness among bust
ness men ; and when we look after the
solid facts We find that there is more
work being done than formerly, and that
the prices and cost of production are in
such correspondence as to allow the pro-
ducer fair profit, although far below the
profits before the panic. Material and
labor have been so high that little build
ing could be done. But prices have fall
len very materially In neighboring cities,
and we have no doubt that there will soon
be more activity among our builders
here. This will certainly be the case as
soon as it is ascertalned that houses will
sell for what they cost. Some of our
active men in this branch would not hes
itate moment to build on their lots il
they could sell for the cost of the house
without the full price for the lot. They
are anxious to give employment to wor-
thy men, and take pleasure in keeping
trade moving. Whether they are made
richer by 1t or not they feel happier and
as though they had discharged duty in
doing what they could to make Others
comfortable. And those among us who
deal in materials for building sympathise
In this feeling and are ready to sell at
greatly reduced rates, or with the smallest
living profit to stimulate industry and
free the community from idlers. And it
is gratifying to know that there are COM
paratively very few men who really want
work and seek it that need be idle now.
In this matter the times have improved
and are still improving rapidly. That
we have lot of bummers prowling
around begging for food is true. But
many OF these people are young and
could get work if they would seek it, and
really deserve no charity. !. 1t would do
them service to drive them from your
kitchen doors if you could only discrimi-
nate between those whom you should
assist and those who deserve no assist
ance. But these people are not so nu-
merous as they were few months ago,
and it is hoped as the times improve they
will disappear entirely. Altogether there
is good cause for encouragement and to
hope that the panic will soon be forgot
ten amid the life and hustle of busy trade
that is slowly springing up in all direc-
tions.

Mr.. Levy, captain Of the nine in
this city, received u dispatch, yester.
day, which stated that the Panther
boys beat Weatherford at the national
game ly n score OF 10 to 10; that six
white.washes were made on one side
and five on the other, only two passed
balls on side, and one home run for
Fort Worth. And yet 1t took tWo
hours and forty minutes to play the
game, We beg leave to be u little in
oredulous. We don't doubt, for II mo-
ment that they were the length of
time they claim in playing tho game,
but 1t does look somewhat strange that
n club that the Texarkana bent two to
one, and they being beaten four to one
by Dallas, could suddenly perform
such work as Is seldom seen outside OF
professional nine. If the statement
Is correct, 1t is the best game ever
played in the northern part of the
state, and If the Fort Worth boys can
hold their grip, they will walk the log
of the Dallas nine with ease but we
doubt 1T.
