frontery only equalled by their du-
plicity, when events compel them to sus-
tain General Hancock instead OF honestly
and frankly accepting the situation and
uniting on the ticket regularly nominated
by the May Convention, expressing some
compromise whereby some representation

Especial dispatch to the New York worid.l
N0sT0N.OS.THg-H HUDSON, July 20.-Mr.
Jay Gould last week visited bis former
home, In Delaware county, In this State, and
bon0red Kingston with his presence en-
route. While here he spoke bis mind freely
on the subject OF politics, prophesying the
certain election OF Hancock and English.
In conversation with Major Thomas Cor.
nell, the wealthy forwarder here--a Repub-
lican, by the wsy-Mr. Gould unhesitatingly
said that be anticipated the success OF the
Democratic presidential ticket this fall.
"How is thatf :" queried Major Cornell.
"WeIl," said Mr.. Gould, "tbe fact Is,
General Arthur loads down the Republican
ticket, and aside from that the Democrats
are thoroughly united on Hancock and
English. have no hope OF carving New
York. and believe that as goes New York
so will also 90 New Jersey at least, and
Connecticut probably"
Mfr. Gould also ventured the remark that
the Republican machineY bad already
practically abandoned the presidential fight
and would henceforb concentrate its efforts
upon carrying the various State Leglsla-
lures, with the obvious purpose OF con-
trolling the United States Senate.
Mr.. Gould's revelations are important
only as exhibiting the fact that what is cali
ed the money power does not seem to be as
much afraid OF the Democracy as some peO-
pie make out. and that the Iri6une'S lot In
thi, contest is not happy one.

rur WANT IN yIpCISII


There now seems to be no prospect that
the feud in "the white mans party" Of
Virginia Is soon to be healed. Even the
most sanguine Of the Democratic leaders
are beginning to admit as much. Thew
are evidently thoroughly alarmed, and
among themselves make no effort TO con-
ceaI the fact that they are most anxious
to make terms with the ReSdjusters. Two
months ago their tune was very differ
ent one. At that time they believed,
or at least affected to believe, that the
newly-elected United States senator, Gen.
eral Malone, aud his followers would
never carry what was called their betrayal
of the Democracy to the extent Of opposing
the regular electoral ticket OF that party. 1t
was argued most plausibly that while Ma.
hone might in State and local matters refuse
to support the machine candidates, he could
not decline to give all the weight
OF his influence in favor Of the nominees
OF the National Democratic Convention.
His whole political future they con-
tended was AZ stake, and depended upon
his fidelity to the organization. According
to their theory, he would not dare place
himself in opposition to the allied Democra-
cy OF the Union. The oyer.cOnfident gen.
tiemen who held this view did not fully I'M
derstand the character, aims, and motives OF
William Malone. They forgot, perhaps,
that he was before the war little better than
a poor white, that he never had any sympa-
thy with the Bourb0ur aristocracy. that be
owed absolutely nothing to the Democratic
party, had no fayors to ask from it, and
would receive none even though he aske d
them.
They seem to have forgotten, also, that
for whatever political power he has be is in
debted to combination OF negroes with a
number Of white men who were disguised
with the methods OF the leaders OF the De-
mocracy, and who were ambitious for Do
litieal preferment which they knew they
could not get in the old organization. Fur.
ther than this, In the same direction, they
seem to have forgotten that II the ReSdjust-
ers held their men together they are almost
certain 10 carry Virginia In the State election
q year hence. But to bring about this result
they know thstthey-the Rexdiusters-must
keep their men together, must preserve
their organization in the present campaign.
II they disband now, II they permit them
selves to be swallowed up by the Demo-
Gratis. they can Meier again hope to succeed.
Knowing all this, General Malone, who Is
beyond question the ablest political Dssip-
ulator In the South, has decided upon the
only sensible course which was open to him.
He has quietly allowed the Democrats TO
select their electoral ticket. and. not
In opposition, but In every way In
dependently Of 1t, he has named his
own set Of electors, who, while they are
pledged to the support OF Hancock aud
his partner, the Indiana bunker, are at
the same time about az bitterly opposed TO
the Democratic party OF Virginia as II is
possible for men 10 be. At 6rst the Bour-
bon leaders affected TO care nothing for this

A New York RumOr.
National Republican,


There is a rumor now that Collector Mer-
rift, OF New York, is in danger OF being
stepped down and out, but II Is probably
only rumor. II is said that he Is not SUI
fclently active in behalf of the Garfield and
Arthur ticket; but it would be new fea-
tire OF the civil-service policy OF this Ad-
ministration to find backwardness in COM
ing forward to the support Of any candidate
for ONCE an objection with the powers that
be. It's highly probable that Madam Rumor
Is on wrong scent, and hence her specu-
latiops are at fault. General Merritt has the
reputation OF being very capable and eff
cient collector, and this ought to insure him
against anything like an attack upon his
position, so far as the appointing power
is concerned. 1t is very probable, never
theless, that the placing OF his predecessor
on the ticket does not enthuse him TO bigh
degree, az those things work very queerly
sometimes. 1t Is not an uncommon thing
for a successful candidate for position 10
become rather unforgiving toward his prede'
cessor, and this may be a case OF that kind.
It is doubtful il the President will remove
for such a cause.

A BOILING REPUBLICAN READJUsTER.-
letter from Franklin, Va, In Suffolk
Herald. 1.-The Rev. Joseph Gregory, second
vice-president OF the late Readjuster Con.
veulioD, deeming himself misrepresented
by sundry persons who spoke or wrote OF
him as Democrat, posted in conspicuous
place In our streets day or two ago a
notice, In which he deEies the "soft i'm
parchment" aud says he is In no degree a
Democrat nor a convert to that political
faith that be went to Richmond With no
idea that the Rezdjusters would endorse
Hancock aud Engiish, and that after they
did so he only occupied his chair az q
{" looker.ou in venics," and promises to ex-
plain more fully Though the press and
bustings.
The champion Readjuster made bis APP
pearance on our streetslast Saturday from
Nansemond, and emphaticaIly denounced
the ticket, saying II was too Democratic for
MIN; that be would rather vote for Radi'
cal, and would do 1t before Ne would vote

We challenge the organ TO publish a list
OF the delegates to the late Readjuster Con-
venton, and predict that whenever such list
does appear 1t will be seen that the delegates
were frauds.
This county was represented by but one
delegate, as far rs We have been able to
ascertain-Carter Peterson, a negro Repub-
licau Of the deepest dye. who will as cer-
tally vote for Garfield as election-day comes.
An attempt was made TO manufacture an.

mond on business, and credentials. II IL

bur tue plan OF action had been
mapped out beforehand in the upper
story Of the Wing building, and no
delegate dared raise dissentient
voice against any Of its proceedings. The
delegates were there to catch inspiration

there was nothing for them to do. Even

While the thinking men OF inc party are
thus alarmed and conciIiatory, however,
the great masses OF the Democracy continue
TO talk loudly about having nothing TO do
with traitors, and about continuing the
contest to the end. While the Democrats
are specializing about the Malone move
ment, he and his followers are making one
of the most effective canyasses the State mas
ever known. They reject with much lndig-
nation the proposal that the National Demo
cratic Committee should decide the existing
differences, and declaring that they ave
thoroughly competent to take care OF their
own affairs without advice from outsiders,
adhere to their determination OF keeping
their electoral ticket in the field. Ii they
do so to the end-and there is no doubt that
they are thoroughly in earnest-the Demo

ginia carried and counted for the Republi-
can nominees.
