Abusing Tilden,

1t is the fashion Of the Southern
papers to abuse Tildcn and declare
that the South will never support
MN. Some even take the ground that
his nomination would be an insult 10
the South. While it is perfectly
proper for every ono to manifest a
preference, it is injudicious to assail a
prominent candidate too violently.
should Mr.. Tildcn be nominated the
South is just as bound to flock to him
sohdiy, as to any one else. Little
.ove may be manifested, it is true, but
the storm logic of events compcls
the South to take any Democrat that
is offered. What the South most de-
sircs is Democratic victory. She
was not very deeply cnamorcd of Mr..
Tilden in 1876; but she voted for him
in tho ST. Louis Convention because
his friends showed that he could be
elected. So If 1t should be shown that
ne can carry New York and ono O,
two other Northern States IN 1880, she
VIII doubtless vote for him again on
the ground of availability. It is
therefore indiscreet to make any too
positive assertions regarding the old
man OF Gramcrcy Park. Bayard Is
the fayorito with thousands; but It is
said that the wire-pullers will prevent
ms nomination. Thurman is also

EX-GovERNoR WM. ALLEN, of Ohio

less district, he made such an ener-
getic canvass that he was elected by a
majority of one vote. At the age of
thirty ne was a United States Senator.
In lS49 he was suggested as a COM
promise candidate between Cass and
Van Buren, III the Democratic Prcsi-
dental Convention, but declined to
run as he had previously worked for
Cass. For nearly generation he was
Ill retirement, but in 1874 was elected
governor Of Ohio. His memorable
canvass against Hayes in 1875, when
ne pronounced resumption a e
barren idcality," is we'll remembered,
Ills defeat gave the Radicals hope and
enabled them to rally sufficiently in
1876 to get near enough the Presidency
to steal it. Tho Ohio Grccnbackcrs
were quite anxious to nominate Coy
ernor Allen this year, but he refused
to quit tho party in which he had
labored and become famous. Among
other distinguishing characteristics
was his phenomenal voice, said to be
the strongest in the United States. On
one OCCASION his political enemies
brought up steam tug near where he
was speaking, and cndcavored by
means of its whistle to silence him.
But Uncle William was equal to the
emergency. Taking a fresh breath,
ne raised his tones far above the noise
made by the steam, and actually
drowned it out. After that, he was
not molested. Governor Allen was an
uncle of Senator Thurman. But the
two stood in each others way politi-
cally of late years, and they were not
on the most cordial terms.

IIIE IMMENSELY OF LoNDON.-Of all
the great cities, London, OH the whole,
contains the most to interest and in
strucC Americans. 1t has doubled in
population in the memory Of men still
young. Most readers remember when
Macauley's history appeared. In his
first volume the author contrastcd the
grandeur of the modern city with the
London Of Charles II. and boastcd that
the number rofinhabitantsh had increased
from little more than five thousand to at
least one million nine hundred thous-
and. In the brief time that has passed
since Macauley wrote, the one million
nine hundred thousand has become four
million.
a few contrasts taken from the best
estimates will give some suggestions of
the immense magnitude Of the city.
1t is aptly described as a province
covered with houses. New York is
equal in population to the aggregate of
Maine and New Hampshire. London
equals Maine, New Hampshire, Ver-
mont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Mas
sachusetts and California all together.
10 equal the city Of London, here we
should have to bring together the people
OF the following cities: New York,
Philadelphia, Brooklyn, St. Louis,
Chicago, Boston, Baltimore, Cincin-
natl, New Orleans, Buffalo, San Fran
cisco, Washington, and Louisville.
The transient people in New York are
about thirty thousand; in London one
one hundred and sixty thousand. In
New York q baby is born every fifteen
minutes and death occurs every
seventeen minutes. In London a birth
occurs every six minutes and death
every eight. The drinking places in
Now York set in one street would
extend seventeen miles; those in Lon
don scyenty-threc miles.
