The N. z, Herald to-day says, that
the Palladium, of that State Of March
sist, falls page with the brief replies
Il had, received from the Democra ic
editors of the State in answer to its
interrogatory. as to the advisability Of
nominrting Mr.. Tilden. "They are
seventy in all, and of the seventy only
thirteen are for, while fifty-seven are
against, the advisability of nominating
Mr. Tilden. Quite proportion of the
negative answers express great respect
for Mr.. Tilden, and think his nomina-
tion inexpedient only because it is
quite impossible for him TO reunite the
Democratic party of the State and be-
cause the chances of any Democratic
candidate are staked on his ability to
carry New York. In the Judgment Of
ffty-seven of the seventy country edi-
tors Mr.. Tilden cannot unite the party
and carry the State. There are fifty
counties reported in the replies, and Of
these only six are in favor of Mr.. Til
denis nomination, two are doubtful
and forty-two counties think his NOM
ination would be unwise and ruin

THE ESTIMATE WHICH SECRETARY
STANTON PUT ON HIS SERVICES.
WASHINGTON, April 2.-During a
discussion IN the Senate to-day upon the
question of granting pension to q man
who served during the late war as a spy
Senator Carpenter told story Of what be
had seen and heard one day during the
war, when he went to the War Depart
ment to see Secretary Stanton. He said:
"a little boy came In and gaily said:
Good morning, Mr.. Stanton why,
Johnnie replied the Secretary, where
did you come from?' Those men YOU
gave me letter to have busted, ''answer-
Johnnie; 'and now / want TO get into
the printing ofide.' Mr.. Stanton turned
around and wrote letter TO the Public
Printer, telling him who the boy was,
and asking that he employ him. After
the boy went out Stanton told me that
he hau paid $l50,000 to spies and scouts
for Information, but that little boy, who
had been three times in Richmond dur
ing the war, had brought him more val
liable and reliable information than he
had got for the whole $l50,0O0.

Mr. TILDEN.-We publish in an
other part of the GAZETTE to-day a
sketch Of Hon. SAMUEL J. TILDEN,
from the Philadelphia Times. We do
not know whether it is entirely true in
every particular or not. The GAZETTE
has excluded all abuse of the great
men Of the Democratic party whose
names are connected with the caDdi.
dacy for the Presidency from its col
umns, while it admits of articles CON-
mandatory of any of them. The
GAZETTE has always gone for the
nominee Of the party and proposes to
adhere to its old custom.

In the clear water. A trout darted for

Iowed another ring, fastened 1t to the

THE GAZETTE did not advise or ad,

opposed the sale and removal Of the

Trustees of the Poor. The county
thus having been saved from incurring
any further debt the GAZETTE feels
