Ge". WIN. Curtis On Grant aod tie
Pres.dency.
NEW York, April 10.-Geo. Wm.
Curtis, in Harper's Weekly, con-
cerning the statement that Grant
is the only candidate who can be
elected, says: 1t is II confession of
II despair we do not share; and to
assert that he is the sole distinctive
representative of Republican prin.
ciples is to insult Republican intel
ligence. However probable the
nomination of Grant may be, it
seems likely that it would chill tie
sincere part Of the opposition to
the Democrats, would be accepted
with doubt aud regret by another
part, and would be really welcome
only to u third part.
The Ti,ds. Wave Booming.
New YORK, April IO.--The Tri-
6ane to-day says: The Tilden
wave is booming like Il cataract, in
spite of ciphers, feebleness and
Tammany. 1t received great
impetus yesterday. Governor Sey-
mour nipped the absurd Tammany-
Belmont conspiracy in the bud by
declaring, in advance of the Com.
mittee's visit, that he would have
nothing to do with them,
and would not be candi-
date for Governor under any cir
cumstances. This was great gain
for Tildeh, but the news from the
elections in Ohio and Michigan
was greater; for in those States
the Western idea of winning sue
cess by uniting Democrats and NJ
tionals was tried, and the result
was disastrous failure. OF course
this demonstrates more clearly than
ever the hopelessness Of Democratic
success without New York, and
there Is consequently sharp rise
in Tilden stock at once.
Panama Railroad and Pacifie taass

Thursday, when another meeting

agreement would not be made pub.
lie until then.
