GOVERNOR HENDRICKS, who has
no more chance for the first place on
the Democratic Presidential ticket
than Henry Ward Beecher, relieved
himself thus to an Ex-senator in New
York the other day; "You may stack
the Bibles as high as you please, and
l will swear from the topmOst down
that | wont take the second place. "
1t is hard, but we suppose the country
will have TO worry through without
the valuable name of Mr.. Hendricks.
CALIFORNIA having elected four
Republican Congressman, the Demo.
cratic majority in the House is reduced
to eleven. aud concediDg that Repub-
licans will be elected to fill the vacan-
cies in the 9th Ohio and 18th New
York Districts, the majority will still
be nine; small, it is true. but enough
for all practical purposes, If our mem
bers will attend TO their duties and be
present to vote on all occasions.

TIE Cincinnati Enquirer says that
Republicans having been elected to
Congress from all the California Dis
tricts, it will be in the power Of DE
La Matyr, the Greenbaeker of Indiana,
to dictate the President of the United
States, provided the people should fail
to elect and the election should be
thrown into the House of Representa-
tives. In that event it will require
20 States to elect, each State being
entitled TO one vote. The Republic
cans now have 10 and the Democrats
IS. II De La Matyr votes with the
Republicans their candidate will have
the required number of States. Should
he vote with the Democrats there will
be tie, and consequently no election
by the House. The Senate, being
Democratic, would elect Democratic
Vice-President, who would, of course,
become the President. 1t is not like
ly, however, that all this power will
be delegated to one man, as the Demo-
Gratis will elect their nominee next
time by such a decisive majority that
all the Returning Boards and Com
mission conceived, or hereafter to be
conceived, can not count him out.
