IL We're necessary to believe them OF course
Ii would follow that the country must prob
ably be lost in any event. 1t being i'm
possible to elect more than one candidate
out OF the five the chances would be four to
one against the salvation OF the country,
whichever should be chosen. Perhaps the
auditors might adopt the alternative OF
trusting that the country is reasonably
safe, whoever becomes Governor OF New
York.
Besides the five candidates for Governor
Mr.. Tilden also ought to take the stump for
his State ticket, Mr.. Conkling being actively
engaged in stamping for his own and the
venerable and excellent Peter Cooper hav-
ing already assisted in one public meeting
in behalf of Mr.. Lewis. Mr.. Tildon owes
every honorable service of which he is capa-
BILE to the ticket upon which he insisted at
the price OF split in the democratic party.
Nobody understands all the motives, public
and private, for that nomination better
than he, and therefore nobody is better
capable OF instructing tho people on the
subject. He is II pleasing speaker-to an
intellectual audience. Without possessing
the oratorical tervor OF Mr.. Conkling or Mr..
Cooper's close reasoning powers he would
make an effective campaigner We wodld
not recommend him for an open air speech
to miscellaneous multitude, but for
clear and convincing exposition, to small
audiences of intelligent politicians, OF the
side on which their advantage lies, it
would be hard to find his equal. Governor
Robinson's desire to limit the canvass to
State issues, to which desire, Of course, it
would be tho duty and the pleasure OF
Mr.. Tilden to conform in his campaign
speeches, would relieve him from any i'm
parchment of immodesty in thus taking an
open hand in the business BY all means,
therefore, let the Sage Of Greystone appear
from his seclusion and take the stump.

over to one party or the other mt every cleo
ton, and by this conveyance secure to your
self the mastery of the city. You fancy
that you can set up sort OF petty
feudal sovereignty here, and play the part
of one of those soldiers of fortune who in
the Middle Ages sold their support to which
ever side made the highest bid and kept
their troops together by sharing with them
the plumber they extorted. But this is
only wild dream. Mr.. Kelly; you have come
on the political stage q century too late;
you cannot succeed in any such desperate
and demoralizng game.
Failing that, however, what are you
going to do? Where will you lead the voters
of Tammany Hall after the elcctionY You
cannot expect to lead them back into the
party which, if they follow you, they will
attempt to destroy. DO you expect TO lead
them openly or secretly into the republic
can camp? They are hardly ready for
that. Do you hope to hold them together
as "a permanent John Kelly party, to be
sold out at every election rs mere
political Hessans? While you are going
about tho State your followers in Tammany
Hall are asking themselves these questions,
and wondering whether it is worth their
while to be dragged out of the democratic
party to crafty your spleen and ambition.
1t would be we'll for you to send them some
explanation, if you have any, OF your pur-
poses, and to tell them how you propose to
get them out of the mire into which you
now ask them to follow you.

TIE WEArnER.--The high pressure along the
South Atlantic coast has moved out into the
ocean. Another area of very high pressure is
now over the New England States, causing the
temperature to decline considerably in those
districts. The disturbance in the Northwest
ms moved northward into British Columbia,
IND the pressure is now pretty uniformly dis
Tibuted over the country. very rapid fall
temperature has taken place ia Minnesota
and Dakota, aud frosts have been experienced
those sections. The influence Of this rapid
Accommodated change is felt rs far eastward
as the lake region, where cooler weather pre-
sails Heavy rain has fallen in some of the
Western States elsewhere the weather was
fair. The winds have been generally fresh.
The weather in New York and its vicinity to-
day will be fair and cooler. Tomorrow the
same conditions likely to prevail.
