TIE Chicago Tribune discourses
on the next Presidential ticket as
follows:
"Fhe present political outlook has
practically narrowed the contest for
the Presidential nomination by tho
Republicans, in the opinion Of many
persons, to Grant or Blaine. IF Grants
name be received by the Convention
with hurrah, there will be 10 con-
test. Ii, for any reason, the present
disposition to hurrah for Grant shall
abate, or if Gen. Grant himself shall
refuse to be candidate, then Blaine
will probably be found so strong as to
leave little chance for Ozark horse
Blaine's nomination would almost
certainly lead to the selection of a
Western man for Vice President, and
Illinois would be apt to come to the
front. Ohio might present the name
of Sherman, but it is probable that the
Secretary's higher ambition would
preclude his acceptance of the second
place. Michigan might bring forward
old Zach Chandler, whose name
would undoubtedly arouse consider

seat in the Senate, and to go further

accompany the civilian Blaine. In
diana could make good showing with
Gen. Ben Harrison. But Illinoi1
would have geographical and party
advantage in many respects. The
name of Elihu 3. Waehburne would

were nominated for President without
much of struggle, Mr.. Washburne
might possibly feel free to run for Vice
President. If it should be advisable
to give the soldiers special represen-
tation on the ticket, then the attention
of the Convention would be turDed to

THE question with the Democracy
to~day is, Scan Tilden carry New
York 2" A vote for Robinson next
Tuesday will be a vote for Tilden,
and Robinson's defeat is Iilden's
defeat. This fact is pretty gener-
ally recognized in political circles.
If Robinson carries New York, the
politicians of the Solid South, CORE
posing the brains and the backbone
of the Democratic party, will be
ready to fall down before the great
Reformer Of Cipher Alley and wor.
ship him. He will by common con,
sent be recognized as the golden
calf for Democratic worshipers
But if Robinson is defeated, Tilder
will have to take a back-seat in thu
Democratic synagogue.
But here comes in considera
ton which gives the Democrats
heart a great deal Of pain. Nev
York is in Tilden's hands, whethe
he can carry the State or not. I
he can not carry it, he has the pow
err to prevent any one else fror
carrying it. That he will use thi

A STAFF correspondent Of the
New York Times, who has been
giving special attention to the cam
paign in the Southern portion Of
that State, says of Kelley's
strength:
ut is only necessary TO say in re-
gard to it that, from one calse or al
other, all the elements which GO to
make up John KeIley's strength on
the Southern tier will continue faith
fully 10 support him until the end.
The charge that they are helping TO
elect Republican does not and will
not affect them. In word. it is not
possible to cry down the Kelly move
ment in Southern New York. 1t is q
most formidable one. It is made up
of most influential and determined
elements. Those who compose it can
not be reasoned with, and right OF
wrong, at all hazards, and no matter
what may be the result, they will cer>
tainly assert themselves at the polls -

THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE OHIO
ELECT ON.

A hardened sinner even, such as
is the editor of the Cincinnati I'm
quirer, recognizes the fact that the
Chisholm killings and the Yazoo
plans furnish arguments against
Democratic supremacy. It says:
"As we look over and into the
philosophy of the late election in
Ohio, we can not fell to see few facts
in it tt at are wholly outside of it.
The Chisholm killings and the Dixon
killings and the YszoO plans are too
good electioneering arguments for the
Republicans to be furnished by shy
but the enemy. Democrats cannot
afford to furnish them"
The Enquirer recognizes patent
truth. It does no good, and our
Democratic friends will find it out,
if they have not done so already, to
deny the truth about these Missis-
sippi outrages. The fact is, some
of the Southern people manifest too
much sensatiyeness in regard to
these outrages, and this
sensatiyeness sometimes places
them in false attitude.
We have no idea that a majority Of
the people of Mississippi endorsed
the Yazoo outrage or the brutal muir
der of Judge Chisolm and his chile
dren. But the fact that they die
not denounce these murders, and tht
additional fact that they manifested
good deal Of bad temper when
other people denounced them, makes
them appear as sympathizing with
the bulldozers. 10 make the matter
worse, some newspapers and politi-
clans Of more or less prominence
have defended the outlaws and hel(
that they had sufficient proVocatioI
for their fendish conduct. As ;
Southern man, we regret tina
there is any basis upon whicl
the people of the North
ern States can found an opin
ion such as is foreshadoWed in tn
extract from the Enquirer. But
exists, and no amount Of denia
without sufficient proof, will remoV
it. And it is most injurious i
every section of the South. |
East Tennessee we have the utmos
freedom of opinion, and no one
prescribed on account Of his polit
cal views, but every time the shot
gun is used as Barksdale used it
Yazoo county, Mississippi, or as tt
mob of savages did who murdere
Judge Chisolm and his children, {
as the Butler mob did at Hamburg
it hurts US and every other part
the South. And the Enquirer

ophy of the Ohio election and Sc

II consider one tongue enough, said the
committeeman. ''Wc bad better learn cur
own language thoroughly before we begin on
any other. For my part, pride myself on
my knowledge of English and on my accurate
pronunciation. There was a mischieyous
twinkle in the eschoOlmaster's dark eye MAY
l ask" he said, what dictionary you consid-
er the best authority"
Worcester, sir! Worcester's Unabridged ="
replied the committeeman, with an air of
authority. Il always have Worcester's I'm
abridged at my elbow, and consult it morn
ing, noon and night"
Pardon the liberty l take" said the
schoolmaster, modesty; your interest in
the English language emboldens me if you
consider Worcester's first pronunciation as
best you have mispronounced both 'accur-
ate and pronunciation
The committeeman was incredulous, and
some one suggested immediate reference to
Worcester's Dictionary, which proved the
statement TO be correct.
The schoolmaster had been undergoing ex-
animation previous to taking charge of the
boys grammar school in certain New Eng
land town which shall be nameless He had
answered all questions to the entire satisfac-
ton of the examining board, and had receiv-
ed his certificate. Then it was that the chair
man of the board, the committeeman above
mentioned, by dint of persistent questioning
had extracted from the schoolmaster that he
knew Greek, read Latin at sight, and was
deeply interested in the German language
and literature.
Then followed the bit of conversation al
ready given, which silenced the chairman
and was heartily enjoyed by the other mem
bers of the school board who did not profess
to be critical, and who were often taken to
task for some mispronunciation by their
chairman, a somewhat prosy and pompous
individual who was fond of displaying his
accurate" with u long, knowledge of Eng
lish on every OCCASION
The schoolmaster became one Of our home
circle, and we soon found that though he
knew Greek, read Latin and loved German,
he was none the less well versed in English
language and literature, and many valuable
and instructive hint he gave us as to the books
we should read, and how we should read
them.
He never set up as n critic, and it was only
after urgent entreaty that he would consent

How sadly true it is that boots will squeak

A little boy in a Sunday school put poser

A short time ago little boy went with his
father to see a colt. He patted the colts

The bishop was addressing the Sunday
school, and related to the children the story
of Jacobs dream of the ladder into heaven.
Closing his remarks he invited them to ask
any questions they had in mind. After a
few seconds pause, a little girl in piping
voice replied "If the angels had wings,
what did they want a ladder for to climb into
heaven?" This was puzzler for the bishop.
He cleared his throat several times, grew red
in the face and hesitated; but at last bright
thought struck him. Turning toward the
school he said 'As one little child has asked
this question, perhaps some other little child
can answer it. Now can any one tell me
why the angels wanted the ladder 2" Back
came the answer from a remote corner of the
room: Because they was moulting, sir!"
The good bishop sat down.
