Editors OF Dispatch Your paper OF yes
Eterday's date has q telegram to the effect
i That the Courier j Journal, OF Louisville,
KY. contains 4 conspicuous editorial attack
ling DIR. Thomas A. Hendricks and Dir. John
Kelley, of New York, as "his hacker"
1.-THE grayamen OF the attack is that these
two gentlemen g are engaged in an Intrigue
Ito lose New York to The Democrats this
falfo 1t has been said that eat may look
at king. And a Seylnnn might be written
upon the text in chat Mr. Watt erson'sfelISe
nature was never more com plete ~ displayed
than in this yirulent asack upon such real
kings OF men as exc overpcr Hendricks
and Com ptroller Kelley Mr.. Wattrrson-
with flourish of trunDeis, few weeks
ago announced sbatthe old ticket OF illden
and Hendricks mast be 7snoRsinated. Since
that announcement was made Dir. Waiter
son las discovered two facts-viz.:
First. Dir. Hendricks. will not take the
second place upon the presidential ticket.
Second t. has been shown conclu>lVely
that the State OF New York can be carried
without the aid OF Mr.. TildeB, and indeed,
THAT il is not unreasonable to suppDse That
the State win surely be lost to the Democracy
il Mr.. Tilden is renominated.
Hinc lilac laChrynde. Mir. Hendrlchs
cannot reasonably be expected to drop upon
every occasion a iaw-practice worth ut least
s3O, 600 n year to take part in campaign,
especially W hen asked to do so merely to
subserve purely selfish ends.
i Asa communication in the Charlotte IN.
lC.l Observer OF the Goth Instant states:
:. But we must remember that when Mr.
Hendricks was elected Governor he was the
hn la
State ticket who was elected, and that his
majority was, comparatively speahhS'
:. small
Ellis popularity as Governor. and his
continuous efforts, have SO strengthened
our party there that our majority is some
fifteen thousand votes. His scholarship,
elouuence. and overuastering power OF ar
, rument. and the vehcmence and lmpetu-
osty OF his repeated attacks in each cam
J paigu on the Republican perry, have en-
deared him to the Democracy OF Indiana.
"The purity OF his private life, bis I'M
J sullied integrity, and his kindness Of heart
have enueared him 10 large circle OF
/. friends, irrespective of politics. In our
! opinion, we cannot rely upon the vote of
Indiana If the friends OF MT. Hendricks are
| dissatisfied. Even he will not be able to
| control their indignation If his really para
mount claims are sighted"
2 The position oil VicCPrc>idcnt is less in
I huental than that OF Speaker Of the House.
AS presiding officer OF the Senate he is, COM
paralivcly speaking, almost nonentlv.
All the honor Of belonging to this body has
been had bv Mr.. Hendricks, and Tie South
9 cannot readily forget Mr.. Hendricks'S po-
siton rs the leader OF the minority during

Mr.. Hendricks himself is perfectly conscious
