HILLS IIILARITY.
The Democratic Candidate VIII be
Seated, Elected or Not


Chicago, Feb. 24.-The Times dis
patches intimates that Tilden is laid on
the shelf by the selection of Cincinnati
as the place for holding the democratic
convention, and that Randall's friends
are in high feather hoping that Tilden's
mantle will fall on him.
The Tribune on the contrary says
that Cincinnati was Tilden's choice.
The Times Washington dispatch says
a serenade was given to the Ohioans at
Wizards hotel last evening at which
speeches were made by Senator Pendle-
ton and several other prominent gen.
tlemen. Representative Hill, of Ohio,
caused good deal of dissatisfaction
among his political friends and consid-
cradle delight among his republican
hearers. He declared that the demo-
Gratis will inaugurate the candidate to
be nominated at Cincinnati whether
they elect him or not.
Jno. G. Thompson made feeble at
tempt TO mollify the effect of Hills re-
marks by saying the democrats intend
to inaugurate the Cincinnati nominee
because they will elect him by an over
whelming majority.
Other democrats who fear the repub-
licans will make capital out of Hills
indiscreet remarks, explain that lie had
no intention to say exactly what he
did; that he was feeling hilarious over
the victory won by his friends in secur-
ing the convention for Cincinnati AMI
had partaken too freely of wine, which
was literally dealt out at the Ohio head
quarters.

Assembling of the New York state
Convention-The Slate.
Utica, New York, Feb. 24.-The
largest number of people ever gathered
at state convention in this city are
now here. All the hotels are full to
overhowing, and guests are quartered
in other houses: An air of quietness
prevails among the delegates who are
for Grant. They say but little, and
show that they feel their strength.
The Blaine delegates exhibit more feel
ing, and evince determination to in
sist upon Il full recognition Of their
rights to be held in the convention.
They claim to be entirely ignorant of a
programme which the majority intend
to carry out. Good authority, how
ever, says it will be as follows Chatles
E. Smith, of Albany, will be temporary
chairman, and perhaps permanent
chairman also; Edwards Pierrepont,
chairman committee on resolutions; a
strong resolution in favor of the nom
ination of General Grant; the delega-
tion to Chicago to be named.by the del
egation from the congressional dis
tricts, and no resolution of instruction
to the delegation to Chicago to vote as
unit, that not being deemed necessary.

Lively scene in Congrea..

Chicago, Feb. 24.-The Journals
Washington special says: The routine
proceedings in the house to-day was
enlivened by personal explanation
by Mr.. Reagan, Speaker Randall and
others, regarding the alleged remark of
the first named, that the speaker had
packed the commerce committee against
the interstate commerce bill. Mr..
Reagan denied the correctness of the
story, and the speaker said he was sat
isfied that the statement had not been
made by him.
There was quite breezy passage be-
tween McLain and Reagan about what
the latter had said regarding the action
of the majority commerce committee.

CATION to the convention should go unin-
structed with the delegation appointed
in accordance with the views of con-
gressional districts, and left free to act
upon the latest. and best reflection of
popular opinion. Grants nomination
would be vindicated by his election
If, however, other and Objectionable
methods are obtained, the success of
our ticket would be hazarded.

New York, Feb. 24.-The Post, of
otica' says the republican convention
VIII oe so completely under the control
OF Grant men as to render discord prac-
tlcaiiy out of the question. Positive
Blaine men, however, do not propose to
eeep entirely still. Delegates arrive
slowly, trains bringing fewer than ex-
pected.
The weather was intensely cold last
night and this morning.. A good deal
OF grumbling was heard from delegates
ABOUT being called out this time of the
year. Senator Conkling will arrive in
the morning. 1t is proposed to appoint
new state committee, leaving no
doubtful Grant men on guard.

Dean Stanley and the Napoleon Mon
ument.

London, Feb. 2s.-Dean Stanley to-
day received an address with 5000 sig
natures, and gave audience to depu-
tation protesting against the proposed
erection of a monument in Westminster
abbey to the memory of the prince i'm
perial. Dean Stanley refused to alter
his decision in the matter, and said if
he were to give way in this instance it
would open the door for complaints
from every party against honors to
rivals. Relative to the supposed feel
ing in America against the erection of
a monument, he said, doubtless, If the
Orleans princes had fallen In the war
of the secession, their graves would be
heaped with all the honors the United
States could bestow.
