TILDEv YET TO Bg GlLr4NLzED.

" TLDEN YET TO BE- GALVANIZED.
Ii any weight is TO be attached to the
views Of men eminent in the counsels of
Mr.. TILDES, there can he no longer any
doubt that there is to he an attempt to get
through the next Congress DAVID DUDLEY
FIELDS quo rd,r"hto bill. providinga course
Of procedure to test the question of right
to the Office of President. and if successful in
this it is certain that such proceeding will
be instituted with view of oustiny Prc~i-
dent HAYES upon the evidence taken by the
Congressional committees sent to the doubtful
States, and now in the hands of the
great contestant. 1t will be remembered
that this hill was prepared by Mr.
FIELD in the last days Of
the last Congress, and that
frantic efforts We're then made to procure
its passage, but without avail 1t will also
be remembered that since the election of
the present Congress many futile attempts
have been made to induce some of the
members from New York city to retire. to
enable the friends of Mr.. FIELD to return
him to the work thus commenced. aud for
the accomplishment of which it is thought
he is the most competent man, not alone
on the score Of ability, but of perseverance
aswcll His unapproachcd and un.,pproach-
able impudence and indet;,tgahleness are
regarded as grand qualifications for the
task to which he is called. or will be. ii per.
suasion or money can secure vacancy
But in case il is not possible to find seat
for him in the House, the worl; will still
go on with him rs outside counsel, and be-
prosecuted to success or defeat in the mat
ter OF the passage of the bill and to final
Judgment on the merits in case the bill be-
comes a law.
1t is quite clear that there has been an
interchange of views during the recess be-
tween Mr.. TILDEN and his friends and the
disafiected leaders of the unregeneruted Re-
PuphCah party, WIN HON, lIlslt tHtlt OCtu-
patton is gone since the bloody shirt was
washed Of its stains, are fain to consort
with the enemies of those who gave it the
much needed ablution, and will hesitate ut
nothing which promises aid and comfort to
the former and discontinue to the latter
Some Of these have freely said that the PEG.
pie Of the United States would rapidly i'll
up petitions for the resignation OF
removal OF the President if they
were to be circulated, and that b,

when they say "the people" these rcviler
mean themselves, there is but little occasion
to be fearful OF their separate plottings. !
ONLY when there is a prospect that the.
may be bought up or prevailed upon by
humoring their hatred of the Administra
ton by the hackers of TuDES to do hi
bidding that they become formidable. How
ever, there is even then but small occasion 10
apprehension, inasmuch as the sensible mel
, of the South and patriots everywhere vii
steadily set their iaces against the mischie
of such absurd folly
