ported as follows:
REPORTER: "whom will Mr.. Tilden sup
porti" ., oo,r,o ue
10 the strongest candidate and the pest na.,
and without doubt can carry New lork'
We don't take much stock in this Kind OF
talk. Mr.. SEYMOUR could carry New YORK
II Mr.. TnDEN and Mr.. KELLY were Doth
to oppose him.
A Springfield (Illinois) letter in the New
York Herald says
General Hunton's estimate OF Mr.. MOTIF
sons availability as a candidate mas become
household word in this part OF me stare
ne was asked what he thought OF Mr.. MOT
r,son for nominee, and replied:
ar Morrison was elected there wouid De
more honesty and bad manners In the White
House than was ever there before"
The story goes that Dir. Morrison heard
the remark, was dispIeased with 1t, and told
his wife what an unkind thing had been
said about him by fellow Democrat. Mrs.
Morrison is said to have confirmed General
Uunton's estimate, and that ended tue III
feeling between the Virginia and Illinois
congressman.
A wisconsin letter in the same paper
says:
MILWAUKEE, June 13.-Within the past
two days your correspondent has inter-
viewed the twenty delegates chosen TO rep
resent Wisconsin In the Cincinnati Conven-
ton regarding their presidential prefer
ences. The delegates have decided TO vote
unitedly for Seymour first, and 10 be gov
erned after the first ballot by the attitude OF
the New York, Connecticut, ana New Jer'
sew delegations. They believe that Mr..
Scvnour will be candidate before the
Convention, and that he will be nominated,
but all excepting Villas are prepared 10
suppo:t Tilden from the outset IL seymour
is not running and the former IS the cholce
OF the three States named.
A gentleman who has recently spent
some time in each Of the States OF Penn
sylyania, New York, Ohio, and Kentucky
tells us that he has come TO the conclusion
that the nominee of the Cincinnati Conven'
ton will be SEYMOUR, BAYARD, or HANCOCK.
The first, il be will accept; ii not, one OF
tue two latter.
JAMES JgFFREYs, delegate from the Fourth
Louisiana district, thinks SEYMOUR the only
man who can carry New York.
Florida's eight delegates are for BAYARD.
OMAHA, June IS, 1SS0.-The Nebraska
delegates to the Cincinnati Convention are
for Mr. Tilden to a man, ii he will accept
the nomination, otherwise they will follow
his lead, believing him to be statesman OF
sufficient Judgment to name man OF whom
the entire party can approve ard who viii
be elected. AS far as individual preferences
90 one OF the six delegates would like to see
Mr. Seymour nominated il he would accept.
The delegation is for Tilden or Tilden's
representative first, last, and all the time.
Colonel JOIN g. THOMPSON, the famous
leader OF the Ohio Democrats, says:
of Seymour consents to run there will
be no doubt about the success OF the Demo-
cracy, but If no equally strong man can be
had in the Bast it will be necessary TO 90
West to look for him, and Ohio is the place
to find him. Tilden won't answer, but the
Convention will have enough material TO
choose from when it meets"
