The remarkable statement is made, on
Democratic authority. that Mr.. Tilden is
to be rendered the Presidential nomination
of his party, with the understanding that
be is TO refuse it peremptorily. The ex-
PLANTATION of this proceeding is that Mr..
Tilden desires "vindication," and seeks
this method of obtaining it. 1t is conceded
that the slippery character Of the candid
ate makes it necessary that his formal and
irrevocable refusal to run shall be procured
before he is nominated. This is a species
Of tactics sometimes resOrted to by the
State Department, when it is desired to re-
ward man with an empty compliment, an
appointment being conferred after letter
declining It has been written by the party
Of the second part. But this is new va
riety Of ''yindication" to introduce into
national politics.

An old friend Of ours, now opposed to
US in politics, made the assertion the other
day, that there had been no decrease in
the public debt, but that the government
was suffering the same pecuniary burdens
that followed the war We notice that
this wild notion prevails in Congress, not
witbstanding the monthly reports Of the
Treasury Department showing reduction
in the Indebtedness in nearly every report.
Fernando Wood, chairman of the COM
mittee of ways and means-high authority
to be snre-made the rash assertion, that
the public debt of the country was greater
last year, than in any other year Of our
history. A little breeze followed on the
Republican side Of the house. The denial
and exposure was made by an admitted
Democrat-Mr. Morrison, of Illinois, who
emphatieally put down the unfortunate
Fernando in rather neat and prithy
speech, to the effect that Republican ad-
ministrations had reduced the debt $780,
600, OOO aud that the plain fact might as
well be acknowledged. Notwithstanding
this, denial, we suppose that there viii
be others of the Wood stripe who will go
right on and respeat assertions like that
which called for this emphatic denial from
an honorable and candid member Of his
own party.

the people are muttering aloud because
thus far this has been one of the tamest

Thorpe is now young man, and discard

The TELEGRAPH has a subscriber of some
dozen years continuance, who is in good and
regular standing in the Democratic fold,
who has been a eonsiderate reader for all
these years, and beeause-as he says-of
its differences of political faith and opln-
ions from his own. His chances for i'm
provement and information in political
science in reading a paper of his own views
are very restricted and tame. He prefers
to see the other side, with which eompari-
sons may be made and conclusions drawn.
For this purpose ne prefers papers with
positive opinions and which are positively
asserted. In his own language he feels an
after repugnanee for that type of dishwater
incongruities claiming independence while
they hardly have an opinion, unless it be
such as may be formed after due delibera-
ton and consultion with some Democratic
friend, and then submitted to Republi-
can dilution until so emasculated that any
thing like manly expression Of an opinion
is out of the question.

THE LEGISLATURE
seem more determined than ever to have
the session end 100 days from date" of
commencement and are pushing things
lively. With a view of reorganization
the Finance Committee of the Senate have
been visiting the several State Institutions.
At the Athens Asylum they found things
in a bad condition. The Superintendent
kept one set of books. and Steward
Bell, of notorious fame in hasty scandal
last Spring. another set, and neither SEEM
ed to agree. The Committee made their
report, and from what can be learned, this
place will receive a general oyerhauling,
much to the benefit of the State. One or
tRo other of the State institutions will in
all probabilities have some changes in the
management.
1t is safe to make the statement that at
least one fourth Of the bills introduced
this week in the Legislature have been for
the correction of the Code in which so
many gross errors have been found.
Some little trouble was anticipated IN
the matter of appointing the mine lnspec-
tor, but as neither Owens or Roy are Re
publicsns they have no special claims I'M
less it be the latter gentleman, who will
no doubt be appointed.
