4 PLAN TO SECURE THIS sTArE FOR THE
Ex>sovERSoR IN 1880.
A special from Washington to the New
York "Tribune" is as follows:
A prominent Democratic politician Of
Pennsylvania, who has heen In Washing e.
toa for several days in close conference
with the managers Of his party, reports
that Mr.. Tilden is actively engaged in
carrying out plans to secure the next
Democratic nomination for the Presidency
According TO this gentleman, Mr.. Tilden
ia convinced that he cannot secure the
solid support of the Gulf States, and is
therefore directing his attention ct pre sent
II Pennsylvania. In this be is said to
have the secret aid of Speaker Randall
and W. L. Scott, Of Erie. Mr. Scott will
bs recollected as having been instrumental
In company with Senator Barnum, in &C..
curing Mr. Tilden's nomination in 1875.
. de bas started paper in Erie in futher-
ancs Of this project, it is reported, and the
support of q Pittsburg paper has also been
secured. The effort seems to be to hold
Senator Wallace reponsible for the defeat
OF the Democrats in Pennsylvania, in
order to break his influence in the party.
The new combination is merely con-
tinnance Of the internal struggles of the
Democracy of Pennsylvsnia, begun at
HEie in 1876 and renewed at Pittsburs in
1873. Mr.. Wallace is determined in lis
opposition 10 Mr.. Tildeu, and in order to
carry out the new continuation effectively
I be effort will be mat, to destroy the
Senator.

LEAVING HIM FOR DEAD.

They only went q short distance when
the carriage stopped, and Vincent called
back TO him in order, it is supposed, to rest
assured that he was dead. Jones made
no answer, and the carriage rolled rapidly
away through th, mist and darkness.
As coon as the carriage was out of hear
ing the negro arose, and half dead, dragged
himself through the dreary forest for hours,
without knowing where he was. At last
he reached the house of Mr.. Jacob Van
Dyke, at the station of the same name, and
asked for assistance, telling them that he
was nearly dead. Seeing that he was a
negro, and believing that he was an impos.

UREY WoonsoY, Secretary,

The Democrats of the Southern and
Western States have adopted sufficient
greenback platforms in their organi-
cations, and we can see no good to
come of the attempt to organize a new
party at this critical time. Democrats
who allow themselves to I've enticed
into new party after few sOrehcnds
are doing themselves and their country
wrong. There are but two parties,
and there is room for but two parties.
The Democratic party is unit on
the grcenback principles, and there
fore nasty Democrats should not be
led astray, by unreasonable expec-
tations. The wrongs of the Repub-
lican party must be corrected by the
Democratic party or not at all. If
they are not corrected by that party
the people will be crushed under the
oppressive heel Of the Republicans.
and matters will have been so arranged
that a resort to the ballot box for a
correction Of the grievances will be a
thing numbered with the past before
a new one could be formed. We
advise patience and concert of action.
Unless we do have it we will never
be able to relieve ourselves of the
burden the Republicans have and are
putting on US Bowling Green Pan
tagraph.

For Congress.
James A. Mckenzie,
Of CHRISTIAN COUNTY.


The convention which assembled al
Greenville concluded its session by
nominating Hon. James A. Mckenzie
rs the standard bearer of the Democ.
racy for Congressional hOnors in this
District.
AS Is usual with our conventions,
there was the greatest harmony, and a
cheerful acguiesceDee by Mr.. Clay and
his friends. Mr.. Clay Is too honorable
10 demnr at the action Of his party,
and he is too sound a Democrat not to
understand his duty. We predict that
his eloquent voice will he heard for the
success Of Mckenzie at the November
election, and We urge the Democracy
all over the District to forget the un-
pleasantneSs engcndered in the heated
canvass for the success of the worthy
rivals and join with the noble Clay in
the reelection Of Mckenzie and the
triumph of the Greenback Democratic
platform adopted.
We find on the committee Of resolu-
tons at the convention, the name of
our distinguished Democratic citizen,
J. L. Fogle. The committee deserve
credit for producing such a true and
ful embediment Of the sentiments of
the whole Western Democracy.
1t is a source of pleasure to the peO-
PIE Of Ohio county to find that Senator
Hill was selected as chairman of this
large and respectable convention.
Probably a better choice could not
have BEEN made, rs his experience in
orderly bodies, with his ability and
prompt decisiveness, adapted him we'll
10 the position. During the absence
Of the committee on credentials, the
chairman introduced our venerable
citizen farmer w. D. Coleman, who
addressed the convention on the whole
s1me and sensible doctrines long and
worthily cherished in an honest heart.
He was applauded as the old apostle Of
the Democratic faith, an honorable
survivor of the old legion that followed
the fortunes of old Hickory.
Hon. +. ID. Walker, our distin-
guished citizen and prospective candi-
date for Governor, who, being at the
convention, was with great unanimity
called for. Taken UNEXPECTEDLY upon
the spSr Of the moment, We are in
termed he nevertheless delivered one
Of the ablest, sOundest and most elo-
quently telling political speeches that
has ever been made in this part of the
country. It's true his fame had gone
before him; they expected to hear from
the Email boy" of the once forest Hills,
and if they anticipated much, they
were not disappointed, for they were
electrified with rare eloquence and
charmed with his logic.
We feel proud of Ohio's gifted sons,
for they nObly sustain themselves in
whatever fields they may he called to
maintain the character of manliness
and talent. And now as the "ides of
November" approaches, and other por-
tons Of Kentucky are preparing to
achieve a glorious Democratic victory,
we see our mailed worrior chiefs leading
in the charge, and coming up in the
din Of battle are the soldiers of the old
legion Of honor that fought in the
bright days Of Democratic triumph,
and remained firm in the dark hours of
oppression, 10 wave the banner of vic
tory IN November and thunder their
triumph in 1880.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT !
FRANKToRT, KY, Sept. ., 1878.
A pestilence whose malignity is un-
precedented. continues its terrible hav-
oc among our friends and meighbors in
various parts of the South. | express
my profound gratitude to the citizens
of Kentucky for the noble and gener-
Gus efforts already made by them in be-
half of the stricken, suffering people.
The reports from the yellow fever dis
tricts show that the disease is extending
the area of its ravages, and the death
rate seems to be daily increasing. Sor-
row and suffering, mourning and mis-
cry, have taken possession of some of
the lovliest cities and towns of the
South, and the sad situation should
arouse the tenderest sympathies. OF
the abundance which our people have
in this health favored aud bOuntifnlly
blessed Commonwealth, much can vet
be spared. There should be no ceSra-
ton Ct the glorious work of CHARITY
while we are healthy and orr neigh
bors are sick and dying. God loves a
cheerful giver and "be that hath pity
upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord. y
| earnestly request every association,
society, church and individual to aid
in some way our stricken, despairlng
friends. Relief Associations should be
organized in every county, city and
town. When the dead are unburied
and the living can hardly be cared for
in the presence of the plague, there
should be no delay.
Already this pe>tilence has reached
further north in the Mississippi Valley
than ever before, and although ! can
not believe from the experience of the
past, and from the opinions of many of
our most learned physicians, that it
will prevail in Kentucky, yet
it now has a foothold on our extreme
border at Hickman, and while our peO-
pie are helping others, earnestly urge
them to help themselves by organizing
local boards of health in every town
and village, and by cleanliness, disin-
fectants, and every sanitary regulation
prevent, if possible, the further ad.
vance of this fell destroyer. The State
Board of Health and the authorities of
the Commonwealth will cooperate and
give all aid in their power.

On Monday night, DIR. Henderson
delivered a lecture upon Education 10

House was well filed with an appreci-
alive audience, who we're well repaid
for their attention. DIR. Henderson is
an able lecturer, especially upon this
subject, which ne understands proba.
bly, as well, if not better, than any
other educator in the State. His ex-
perience as Superintendent of Public
Instruction for many years in Ken
lucky. has afforded him an opportunity
of being well acquainted with the pres
ent system Of education in the State
and all its merits and defects.
He lectured yesterday before the
Institute, Of which We will notice next
week.
