POLITICAL NOTES.

There Is one happy Democrat-by name Tllden
Exhausted-tho man who is watching for Re-
sumption 10 taII.
Perhaps Ewing is assembling in order to conceal
his Iildeu cOparceny.
Butler will keep still till he hears from Maine
then he'll keep stlller yet.
Ewing can't charge his coming defeat to Thur
man. lie Is entitled to all the credit himself.
Governor Robinsou's denomination seems to be
pretty well settled now. Those World circulars
amazed the opposition into silence.
There are fears in Ohio that Uncle Dick will de-
cline to use his powers as handshaker or MIXER
for Ewing. No wonder the latter Is despondent
The attention of Coffeepot Wallace is once more
directed to the fact that crippled Union soldiers In
the service of the Senate continue to be suppanted
by healthy COntederates.
Mr. Ewing Is still wandering over the country in
search OF advice from leading Democrats. 1t Is no.
ticeable that invariably counsels with gentlemen
who have deep pockets.
It's once more announced that Senator Wallace
is gong to faaten his grapplers to John l. Dayen-
port and his methods and show up a tremendous
amount of fraud. Perhaps he will-but it will all
bear the Democratic tag. Don't forget that' Slf
Wallace.
Hendrick b. Wright, with a Congressional Com
mttee at his heels, has set ont on transcont-
mental tour to gate the causes OF the de-
preston OF labor cheerful spectacle thS OF the
people Toundly taxed for comic Contributions 10 eco
nOmical science!
The whole Democratic press is engaged at present
in pitching into Secretary Sherman. AS Presi-
Dental asprant. tins Is the best thing that could
happen to him. Resumption, compiled with Demo-
cratic abuse, will make him very formidable can
didatc Tor both VIII endear him TO the Republican
party.
If Pendleton is really laying pipe for 1884 he fur
nishcs a strong argument in favor of lengthening
the residential term. -Four years is long distance
to dip into the future, and Blk would be so long
that even a schemer as accomplished as Pendleton
would not attempt it. Considering Humans age
and his many political misfortunes, it looks like a
sheer waste of energy 10 try to secure his overthrow
By such elaborate means
Mr.. Jere HARRISON, an intelligent eolored man,
who was formerly Congressman from Alabama,
declares that the negro exodus has hardly begun
vet and predicts that 1t Will start anew tins Fan
with wholesale sweep not dreamed of. He says
that no less than 900 blacks will leave the list Dis
trict of Alabama alone. The negroes are infatuated
with the idea of going, and nothing will stop them
He is not much in favor Of the movement but he
finds il entirely useless to argue against II. lie
thinks there are enough negroes IN Kansas now ana
favOls some of them going to Southern Illinois, In
diana and Ohio. While they are eager TO 90 away,
tney would remain at home could they be sure OF
fair treatment.
Candidate Foster is having genuine triumphal
progress through Ohio. Wherever he goes crowds
and enthusiasm await him. He attended the Re-
publcan Convention of Coshocton County last
week, and the demonstration made III his honor was
something unprecedented in that Democratic strong
hold. There was procession, music, and a gayy
trimmed hall in which the Convention met aud
there was 10 limit to the crowd and its enthusiasm
Mr.. Foster made an admirable address to the Con-
yenton, and a speech in the evening in response to
n screuade. Many Democrats are said to have taken
mart in the exercises as there is good deal of dis
satisfaction with local Democratic rule. The whole
nrrformance furnishes striking contrast TO Ewing
who while it was in progress, was going
around the country between Ohio aud Washing ton,
complaining that he had no money and was to be
rulned by enemies In his own party
