GOV. TILDEa'S VIEWS.
In Hearty Accord with Gov, Ewing Demo
cratic Differences Merely Trans-
tory and Evanescent. @
LCineinnatl Enquirer Special Dispatch.

lCinGinnai Enquirer Special DtSpatch.l
New YORK, Aug. 49, called upon Gov
Iilden this afternoon at his city residence No
j. Gramcrcy Park, and was courteousy re-
cFiV%d by him, but SIS he Was just about t.
enter his carriage in order to catch q train, |
did not have as much of an opportunity to in
teryleW him as was Desirable. 1neXplanatioIl
Of me object Of my call, said:
Governor, the Enguuer would like to know
whether the statement Of the Hon. Mr..
Springer that you are earnestly In favor Of
the election OF Gen. Ewing as Governor is au-
thentc?'
Gov Tiden replied "Certalnly it Is" and
then he continued: II have Just received a
Latter from Mr.. Springer relative To the inter
view plrported to have been had with him by
81 correspondent, and quite extensively pub
Ished. Ia that letter Mr.. Springer says / do
not recognize any of the statements pub
li4hcd IS having been made by me, except.
that in references to Gen. Ewing election
Upon that point spoke freely.
Thin" said |, ION that point Mr.. Springer
was reported correctly Z"
II presume so, responded the Governor.
My opinions on that subject have been no
secret"
At this point endeavored to draw him into
an expression on general politics, but he was
very reticent, and would only say the DIFF
ferences in the Democratic party in the
United States are transitory and evanescent,
and will disappear in the presence OF inevita-
BE events. The principles upon which the
great mass OF Tie Dtn0CfaLlc party are
agreed on are fundamental and eternal. In
the contest Of 1876 the issue Was the restora-
tiOn OF the government. It's practical working
and administration, to the original ideas of its
founders The defeat of the popular will, az
declared in that election, has raised q vastly
greater issue-that is. the integrity Of the
system Of self-government through elections
by the people This issue transcends all 9TH
ers, and 1t would be Il betrayal OF the most sa-
cred duty to mankind to permit 1t to be sacri-
feed TO Inferior and transient questions"
ne Governor grasped me warmly by the
hand as he finished this sentence, and accept
Ing this az an evidence that his time was up,
| bade him gOod-by. AS we walked to the
carriage he turned and said: There is one
thing more that | wish you would say for ne
through the columns Of the Enquirer. daily
receive numerous letters from my friends
WGch woaid like to answer did time permit,
bnt take 50 much exercise now in the open
air that it Is impossible for me to respond to
a tenth OF them. Say 50 for me, aud God
bless you"
With that the Governor stepped into his
carriage, and the next moment he was driven
70 the depot. | was surprised to see how
hale and strong he appeared. His step Is
firm and quick, and, but for his palsied arm
and low-toned voice, he would readily pass
fol- fifty.

How E,ephants are Di.embark ed.

There has been much talk, lately, with
refence to the utilization Of the Indian ele-
phant in Africa, and as an experiment., the
King of the BeIgians went to the expense of
getting two males and two females brought
from the government OF Bofnbay. These,
with six manouts and a sergeant, reached the
nearest favored point OF the coast to which
the vessel could approach was 800 yards off,
and it was resolved to attempt to make the
elephants swim this distance The first ele-
phant to be disembarked was surrounded
with ropes to which chung two mahouts, At
the moment Of immersion the mahouts cling
ing to the back OF the animal, cut the ropes
around the elephant, which thus found Itself
at liberty in the water. The operation now
became particularly Interesting. Almost tor
pld by a months sojourn at the bottom Of the
hold, and surprised at finding itself SUDDENLY

A NEW PARTY.
Of Which Jas. Parton and Bob Ingersol
Are the Leaders The Free-Think-
ers' Convention.
Nv ashlngton Poat.l

81 was called to New York last Friday
week" said Col. Boo lngersoll to the Post
Monday night, sto meet a number OF Liber-
ais-Free tIf1nkers- consult as to whether
the Liberal League should meet this year. It
was determined to hold q convention in Gin
cinnati on the thirteenth and fourteenth Of
Septembe: next, to consider the propriety OF
taking some political action, or Of forming a
political association for self-protection. A
committee was appointed to prepare and
issue an address inviting all free thinkers to
meet with us in Cincinnati. The committee
Includes Jas. Parton, Jas. z. Mendnm, Horace
Seaver, Il. f. Underwood, t. +. Wakenan,
Col. Neyman and myself. Some Of the gen
tienen present at the New York meeting eX-
pressed the sentiments telegraphed by your
New York reporter, and | have no doubt
somebody told him | was among the num-
Der.
isn't this political chute something new
for your said the Post.
'sYe5 it Is new, but has been talked Of for
quite time. The immediate occasion, [ think
u calling the meeting in New York was the
recent conviction OF d. NJ. Bennett
"Is 1t proposed to organize National
party"
Eyes, or rather to consult as to whether we
shall or not. In many OF the States infidel5
are denied the civil rights of citizens they are
not allowed to testify or to hold office. In
most Of the States laws are enforced against
what are called violations Of the Sabbath, and
free-thnkerS are denied the right to use that
day as they desire. We want the schools freed
from the control OF superstition; we want
church property to bear its share Of public
burdens. We do not want to prevent any man
from wor5hiping God where and when he
pleases, nor will We interfere with any hu-
man right. We simply ask to be allowed to
think for ourselves without being discrtmin-
ated against on account of our religious or ir-
religious views. For my part, / hope the Re-
publican and Democratic parties both will be
wise enough to advocate these principles but
If neither Of them do, | hope the Liberals of
the United States will organize a party OF
their own"
"Will the Liberal organization support
either of the political parties3"
81 don't know; can t tell until after the con-
vention meets. So far as the Ohio Liberals
are concerned think they will take their own
course"
Colonel. the most interesting question is
what political party will you support in
future" #5zz
