POLITICAL NOTES.

Tie Tilden wave starts hard, but it starts.
David Davis has ceased to be even "a Vice-Presi-
Dental candidate.
Proctor KNOTS address is advertised as a sure
cure for insomnia.
If Coke is really hnffy enough to start party of
one Judge Davis can give him points.
The Worids obelisk will get here just about IN
time 10 serve as monument for the Democratic
party.
Voorhees, is as much opposed to Union soldiers
now AS he was when he wrote sympathetic letters
to the South during the war.
The Democratic party is never so impressive as
when il concentrates itself in favor of Civil Service
RefOrIn-fOr the other fellow.
Senator Gordon shonld be careful how he dllates
on Senator Bayards devotion to the Sonth during
the war. That isn't tho way to improve Bayards
Presidential chances.
There IS q good deal Of talk in Maine abOut select
ing Ex-Governor Arson T. Morrill, as the Republican
candidate for Governor He does not want the po-
stOn but It is thought he will accept if hls party
decides that II needs him. lie would certainly be
an admirable choice.
General Piatt the Grecnback candidate for Gov
ernor Of ohio, declares that he will not withdraw
in favor Of Ewing. He says the prospects of his
party were never better than at present. aud that
he Will enter at once upon an actiVe aua thorough
canvass OF the State. The troubles Of Ewing seem
to be multiplying.
Voorhees, roars that he viii die sooner than vote
TO permit the President to surround the baOt-bOXes
with troops on election day. Nobody asks him 10
vote for such thing, and 1t is entirely unnecessary
to vote against IT. there Is danger of the Presl-
dents doing anything of the kind All the "sur-
rounding" that has been seen for years has been
that done by The Ted-Slirted chiyarY of South Ca
roina but Voorhees, has no IDEA OF dying on account
of that.
Ii is noticeable that Hendricks has not been made
the subject OF a solitary interview since Ewings
nomination. The country Is, therefore, III ignorance
as 20 whether he is still candidate tor the Prcsl-
dency not The chances are hat even lac Is able
to perceive that he isn't. If Ewing succeeds in
ryng Ohio, he will himself monOpoze all the Pres
idcntial possibilities of the West. and Hendricks
Will have the exquisite pleasure Of walking ~ 10
the support OF some such ticket as Ewing anu But-
Ter. How keenlv the Eastern Democrats would en-
JOY dong that, TOO!
The squad of Grecnbackers in Ohio who are try
ing to turn their party over TO Ewing, have had
momentous accession. Muilett has joined them.
lie assures them that he will be present at their
conference on tuesday next, and will urge them to
ratify Ewings nomination. lie is very bitter
toward General Butier, whom he denOunccs rs the
friend and agent of Secretary sherman,
Judas waiting TO betray, ana, ike hls great pro
toype for pecunlary considerations" Hands OF
NJ
seem to be rival candidates Tor the sOlt-moIey
nomination Tor YIce-president in 1850.
Senator Coke has curious ideas Of what viii
benefit the South, and it in the estimation Of
the country, when he proposes TO substitute cheap
money for the sectional issue. Ii there Is one thing
about the South which rouSe5 more apprehension
than It's state Rights sentiments it Is Its attitude
toward cheap money and reputation. Perhaps
Mr.. Coke thinks the country can be carried by
union between the West and the South. IL he does
ms sagaclty is as bad as his principles. No party
can carry this country next year which does not
pledge its allegiance to the preservation Of the
National bligatlOns ana to the perpCtulty Of re-
sumption.
Daniel Magone, friend of Tilden, and former
chairman Of his State Committee, has turned up
unexpectedly IN San Francisco His Ostcnsible Oh
ject in visiting the Pacific Coast is a brother
who lives in Oregon. lie expresses himself freely
on the subject of Tldcn and Reform; hasn't par
ticle of doubt that Tilden will be renominated If
he lives and retains all his old strength. As for
Tilden's health, Mr. MagOne has every means for
knowing his physical condition." and has never
known him TO be in better condition than lac Is at
present. As Tor the opposition of Iammany, Mr.
Nagone THINKS that VIII not amount tO any more
than II did in 1876. The people are for hun be-
cause he represents reforms which are dear 10 their
hearts. Mr. MagOne talks like the devoted disciple
that he Is. and hc Is quietly dong his humble share
ia pushing the IlldeA wave mo motion again.
