that one of the members had received ten

The Next President-"Gsth's' Ideas of
the Coming Man.

Writing from New York to the Philadel-
phia Times Gath" says:
The two items of interest learned at the
launch Saturday were from Secretary Schurz,
saying it was a fortunate thing for public
morals that old Granny Howe had taken the
role OF Balaam; and from Speaker Cooper,
expressing the belief that Don CamerOn's
re election was certain unless the democrats
got the legislature. The powers OF good and
evil are yet in their first fresh contention.
Hayes gaining in steadiness and anti-Hayes
dropping off very little in cussedness. The
latter now base all their hopes on running
Grant in 1880, but while they -coalesce on that
hope the multitude isantagonizingon Grant.
Dull as the times are, people feel that they
medicine us and behold in Grants return to
power the circliDg vultures flying lower.
Every day, while the politicians resolve on
Grant, the people, even those who apologized
fer him, grow cooler. 1t is not Grant, but
Grantism, which repels; not the wooden
Trojan horse, but the thieves in his belly.
While Hayes stifly resists the Grant puddle
at Washington, there is no great interest
about his successor. Everybody sees that he
is starving the politicians out. and that is
why the more hungry band, led by Conk-
ling and his pals, support Huntington and
Gould.
GRANT AND HENDRICKS.
BY present indications Thomas ~ Hen
uTlchS Will DC uOInlndleu on the urSb DdllOt
in 1880, unless the party organs and leaders
sell out for cash III hand and Tilden wins
again. Tilden and Hendricks may extin-
guish each other and Judge Thurman sue
coed. The vice president will be almost
certain to be a southerner. Tom Bayard hav-
ing chance, Gordon or Ransom the proba-
bility In this city Hendricks is the fayOrite
OF the Kelly wing, 20 which belongs Lieu
tenant Governor Dorsbeimer, and Bsyard
continues to be the pet of the Belmont wing;
the latter accounts for Belmont personally
aTraigniDg Hendricks on the money question.
There is no eastern candidate but Mcclellan,
and his possibilities are not above the vice
presidency. The certainty of democratic
success will make the next nomination hard
70 purchase. Ii was sold to Tilden before
because it was not thought to be worth
much. The presidency, as a sure thing, is
not priceable; in lottery it can be COM
puted. There are 1920, 000,0 900 to be spent by
the president and party every year, of which
one-half is in their absolute control. Mr..
Tilden would probably be as obnoxious to
the cormorants of his party as Hayes has
been to the republicans. Tilden, besides,
has shown an apparent disposition to treat
with the uneasy and spleen tortured Conk
ling, so that many think that Tilden would
be part of Grantism.

Evening Chronicle, DEM.

The republican party is responsible for
Hayes; it is responsible for the Florida and
Louisiana frauds; it is responsible for the
I'll warting of the will of the people; 1t is
responsible for the stealing of the electoral
votes of at least two sovereign states, and,
therefore, the country rightfuIly locks to it
for an explanation of Its conduct. Failing
to meet this requisition, ahey and the party
they represent must accept the popular
verdict of condemnation.
