The East for Tilden.

[Bostou Correspondence Brooklyn Eaglel
Mr.. TiIdens prospects are improving.
Without doubt majority of the influential
Democrats here, those who are not looking
for office, are in favor of again electing Mr..
Tilden. There are men who, when spoken to
upon the subject, look wise but say nothing,
because they feel that they must not spoil
their own prospects by fav0rina a wrong can
didate. It is not conveying a wrong impress
sion to say that here in New England Mr.
Tilden's prospects are Frightening: The re-
cent Investigations show that Mr.. Tilden did
not purchase the presidential office after being
faily elected to it by the people. Probably
nine cut OF ten Of all the voters in the coun-
try are satisfied by this time that some one
else did purchase the office. have talked
with many Democrats from various parts OF
New England, and the general feeling is that
Mr. Thden has been deeply wronged, and
that the matter should be set right again by
eleeting him President, and seeing that he is
duly Indicted into Office.

tNatchitoches Vindicator, Conservative Organ. j
great deal is now being said in the va
rous papers about the bonded debt OF the
State; some favoring partial, others total
reputation. That the State cannot even pay
the interest Is q conceded and apparent fact.
We are not In favor of repudiating the debt in
toto, but advocate that 1t be scaled to such q
limit as to pay the interest promptly at ma
turity and absorb part OF the principal every
year. In order to do this we must eliminate
as an incubus the whole fraudulent bonds
now on the market and reduce the Outstand-
ing legal debt to one third It's present amount,
bearing not more than per cent interest
The ante-beIlum debt, amounting to the
neighborhood OF ten millions OF dollars, was
contracted in time of general prosperity, and
when the State was well able to meet its OBJ
legations; her citizens were plethoric OF funds
and could easily pay their taxes. But now
money is scarce, property has aStonlshlngly
deprecated in value, and state OF uncer-
tainty pervades the whole community.
The debt incurred while the Radical party
was In power was made with the view Of en-
riching Warmoth, Kellogg, and it's other
luminaries, and the TRUE citizens OF the
State, during the reign Of these cormorants,
warned the whole country that when they
came into power they would not endure and
pay such lavish expenditures.
Moreover, what has that party to show for
having incurred such debt? Have they
built railroads, canals, bridges or other i'm
provements? No! but they have enriched
themselves, and now welter in wealth wrung
from the honest people of the State, whom
they have traduced and villified, and are even
now chuckiing in their sleeves at the prosecu-
ton OF some OF our people now being tried In
New Orleans under certain laws of the United
States, which, were they brought before the
Supreme Court, would be adiudged unconsti-
tutional, and should now be expunged from
the statute books.
We say let the debt be scaled to an amount
that the people can pay.

THErREsIDENT AND CONGRESS.
The Coming Dead LOck-Hayes Better
mined to Veto the Repeal of the
SUPERVISOR Law,

WASHINGTON, March THE three bones OF
contention at the extra session OF Congress
will be, of course, the repeal OF the super,
visors OF election law. the repeal Of jurors
test oath law and the repeal of the section Of
the Revised Statutes authorizing the use OF
troops at polls. In the consideration Of at
least one of these measures the Democratic
party In the Forty-sixth Congress and the
President will be In direct conflict. The
President has made no secret to some gentle
men of bis opinions In regard to these three
measures. The jurors test oath laws and the
law authorizing the use of troops at the polls
he regards as remnants of war Legislation.
The first are now almost dead-letter. His
course since he has been Chief Magistrate OF
the country in regard to the use of troops in
elections can be taken as an Indication of how
he will act In future on that subject 1t Is
well known that he has always been opposed
to the army being used in an election. He
would not oppose Congress in bill repeating
the statute that authorizes the presence Of
troops at the polls.
OF the proposed repeal of the supervisors
law he takes a different view. He looks on
the law as a safeguard to the purity of The
ballot He does not consider the presence OF
supervisors of elections necessary only in
New York, but as equally SO In every State
In the United States. Thinking as he does, IT.
is evident that direct conflict between him
and Congress is inevitable.
One of the leaders of the Republican party
to-day said: The Democrats will never wipe
the Supervisors statutes OIL the DOCKS wnlle
there Is Republican President: that the
Democrats intend to make an effort in that
direction is well known, as It Is at present
understood that they will first pass q sepa-
rate bill repeating the supervisors law. They
can not pass this over o veto They will then
tack it on the Legislative bill then will come
the real fight, and one side or the other will
havesto recede.
There will be no money to carry on the ex-
ecutive, judicial and Legislative branches of
the government, which means, among other
things that members of Congress will have
to go without their salaries. All but sixty
members of the next House will be new men,
who will not look agreeably at the prospect
OF no money Several leading Democrats are
doubtful If they can keep the next House to-
gether to the bitter end on the repeal of the
Supervisors law

THE NEW ORLEANS ROAD.
Its Completion In Eight Months As

New Cars Ordered.
ISan Antonio Herald

[San Antonio Heraldl
The Texas and New Orleans road presents
scene OF activity and hustle. The recent
order of President Terry to place the road In
first class condition before November | Is
being carried out, and large force OF hands
are at work on different portions of the road,
raising the bed and improving the track
where needed. 1t Is contemplated TO have
the roadbed aised at leaRt three feet before
the above time and In few months the road
will be one of the best ballasted in the State.

road, Informed Telegram reporter yesterday
for three now locomotives and 100 new box
and Hat cars. Thirty-five of these cars are
to be made In the North and sixty-hve in this
city, This order is to be followed by an addi-
tional one Of $50. The gentleman estimates
that the business OF his road will increase
ten fold by the end of the year, at which time
two daily passenger trains from New Orleans
will reach this city. In answer to his opinion
as to what he believed would result from the
building Of the road to Houston, he said it
would prove of greater benefit than all the
other railroads combined This would be the
objective point Of emigration from the North,
South and East. The entire coast country
would be rapidly settled up. Factories and
business houses would spring up. and In a
short time Houston would have an immense
increase in population. The benefits Of the
road in his impartial Judgment, would be be-
yond the brightest expectations.
The road from Orange Is being pushed for
ward Steel rails for the entire gap have
been purchased and are being delivered at
Lake Charles. The right of way had been
secured. as most of the land belongs to the
government. The survey has been made and
the route agreed upon.
The road will be built In eight months, and
in that time the Crescent City and Bayou
