| ent points, the most noteworthy 0
which arc the chaotic condition of tn,
New York delegation and the attitude O
the Indiana delegation. It Is asserted
and not denied that letter of ex. Cover
nor Tilden IL in possession of his brothe
here, to be produced at the proper time
iG WHICH letter the recluse of Gramery
Park declines to allow his name to bt
placed in nomination for President. The
belief is that he has faint hope that IL
q spasm Of remorseful generosity the
/ Convention will then nominate him In
spite of himsclx. Of this there is nc
possible chance, and there is hard figh,
for the Tilden delegates. Speaker Ran
dali was promised these delegates by
Tilden in return for the work Randall
has done In the House of Representa-.
tivea, it Is said. But Payne, Of Ohio
is the happy ;'ossessor of similar pledge
for O different consideration, and to him
Tilden will trrn over as many delegates
as he can control. Randolph's friends
ale indignant that the breach of faith
should be against their favorite, and will
give Payne no quu.ter.
There is no telling where the New
York delegation will now go. and il il
quite likely that Randall and Payne
will cut each others throats. Neither
hes any chance of getting she first place
on the ticket as things stand, but until
they were th town into antagonism by
Tilden's duplicity they had some
strength, and Randall even now is spo-
ken Of for Vice President if Western
man takes the nomination for President.
Il ia conceded The. .he Democrats
must nominate O ticket that will carry
New York and Indiana and make Con-
necticut and New jersey safe. No man
has yet been named unless it be Randall,
to whom the two ilctions in New York
would have givea their whole votes.
This, ut least, is the New York view of
1t. 1t is urged also that no Western
man can carry New York, but the Indi.
ana delegation tell me that they cannot
undertake to carry their State unless
Hendricks be nominated for President,
and further that Hendrick. will take no
other nomination, nor will Indiana be
helped by the nomination of Mcdonald
and English for Vice.P President. To
insure Indiana in October and November
Hendricks must be the standard bearer.
Between the two stools, New York and
Indiana, the Democrats are in'n precari-
ous position; but am confident that
some means of accommodation will be
reached, !'' .-H G1'
Nothing can be said definitely Of the
actual voting strength of the leading
candidates. Field he's by far the best
workers and q complete organization, and
claims 168 votes on the first ballot. The
Field movement has neither confdouce
In nor affection for the candidate as its
foundation. tt is machine made and
expect 1t to fall to pieces.

CINcINNATI, June 2l.-The South

all the members being present, and elect
ed Wade Hampton Chairman of the
delegation, NJ. O. Butler vice. preaidenl
of the Convention from the State ot
South Carolina, and Samuel Dibble. T.

lima. The roll o. the delegates was
called and the whole were found to be In
favor Of Bayard. :e
The Hon. James II. Rion, membe,
of the National Democratic Executive
Committee, being prevented by orofess.
ional engagements from atten, .lg the
meeting, the committee have appointed
Gen. John Bratton to act in his stead.
1t is now pretty certain, n0twithstAnd.
ing the threatening attitude of the In.
diana delegation, that no Western man
ae such win be nominated. New York
with New jersey and Connecticut, and
the 1873 votes from the South, will elect
the Democratic candidate, or Connecti.
cut can be dispensed with, If Oregon be
won. There is no question, however
that the present purpooe is to give Mc.
Donald. of Indiana, the second place on
the ticket, and 1t is believed he can and
will carry his State. ,.
