"My feeling towards Mr.. Tildeu
therefore b not 20 much one of anger -
OF disgust ct the meanneM which could
take advantage of my confidence to do
me an injury. It was to me revelation
OF the character of the man. It showed
me the falseness and trickery Of which I
had been frequently warned, but of
which l had now my fnt experience.
This will explain my very decided inn
preston of Samuel ]. Tilden, and Why I
am obliged to regard him q something
else than san illustrious statesman." A
statesman should De . man mot only Of
broad political views, but Of delicate
sense of personal honor. Craft and trick
cry may make = politician, but not
statesman.
"Now Mr.. Tilden's chief power lies
in these very ignoble qualities. His
great success In life has been q q politi-
cal manager. His methods are those of
the politician, In which there II lsrre
mixture of plausibility and deceit. he
is . man who 10 always working in
the dark, and who h full Of secrets,
taking you In . corner and Whispering
to you - II you were his dearest friend
what he does not wiah the world to hear.
He does everything BY indirection. II
there are two wsys to . thing-one
frank and manly way and the other .
sly ana stealthyway-he will choose the
latter. This habit Of secresy invests
him with kind Of mystery and gives .
vague impression Of his great hidden
power, for Imagination always magnifes
.Aa. which is unseen. II to carry his
end it be necessary to break promise or
TO betray Q friend it does mot cost him 4
pang, but rather, if it be done neatly,
affords him . positive pleasure; for his
forte Ii In giving such surprises, and he
likes to show his skill. A reporter says
he fairly chuckles at the success of his
latest performance, which has Riven him
the double pleasure of betraying friend
and filling up his barrel for the next
campaign. II my expe-
rience, after . Close intimacy of tN0
years, is worth anything It II that he il

Considerable wrangling ensued on the fc.
emblin9 OF the New York Demoe-
instant, owing TO the free expressions OF
bitter opposition to the denomination OF
Gov. Robinson made by the Tammany dele
gates, coupled with threats to bolt should
he be named the candidate. After adopting
the customary resolutions the convention
proceeded to nominate ticket. During
great excitement and confusion John c.
Jacobs, of Brooklyn, was declared the
nominee for governor by acclamation. To
this number of delegates strenuously OBJ
jected, when the chairman (Jacobs) enter
tanned motion to the effect that each dele
gate name his choice for governor. This
virtually opened the question again. The
next ballot was declared in favor of Lucius
Robinson, the present incumbent The
Tammany delegates here Withdrew and or.
ganised in Shakespeare hall. After declar.
ing their unalterable opposition to Robinson
they nominated John Kelly for governor.
A committee of Is was appointed to decide
whether full ticket should be nominated,
but it was generally understood that all but
the head of the Robinson ticket would be
supported by Tammany. They are - fol.

The Democratic Split in New York.

It is natural that the attention of
he t.ey .hs ft L cSooSncssdsd thst her St
votes will determine the next presiden-
tial election. The outlook can be briefly
stated.
The New York Republican convention
was ruled by Conkling and he nominated,
A. B. Cornell for governor, to the great
of many Republican,,
but it was not followed by An open defec-
tion.
The New York Democratic convsn-
tion was ruled by Samuel J. Hlden, and
he nominated his trusted henchman,
Lucius Robinson, for Governor over
the threats and protests of the Tam
many delegates, 79 in number, who at
once withdrew from the convention and
then nominated their well-known chief,
John Kelly, for Governor. The Tam
mauyites really mean business. They
mot only intend to defeat Robinson for
Governor, but to prevent Tilden's presi'
Dental nomination. Their plan II z
large one, but can they carry It out3
Thst il the question. Dorsheimer
and Kelly claim 70, 900 votes q adher-
ents of the Tanmany party. II they can
carry 10000 they can do all the mischief
that they promise. But the extent OF
the seceasion il hereafter to be measured.
Mr.. Tilden has notorioualy big barl"
Of money, and he is willing to spend It
where IL will do the most good In secur.
ing his nomination. The Tammany
leaders are known to b - corrupt . ct
of scoundrels q ever existed; they wal.
low in and tester with corruption. and
Tilden's "barl" can be used with tell.
ing effect upon such crowd. So, not.
withstanding Tammany's rebellion, Til
denis money may carry In Robinson;
but the chances are three to one against
succees, and the probability II that A.
B. Cornell will be elected Governor BY
from fifteen to twenty thousand majority.
IL Robinson should be beaten BY 10
large . majority, It will certainly shelve
Tilden a 4 presidential candidate. But
he deliberately concluded to fight the
battle with Tsmmany now, In order to
test it, real strength At the pole, and, -
. shrewd politician, perhap: no has
Judged wisely, for, certainly, 1t he can
above in Robinson now, even By ono
thousand majority, the Democratic party
of New York IL essentially In this Willy

Kelly, Doraheimer, Courtney, and Dudley
