1ILDEN STILL LISGERs.

If the democrats really believed that TIL
DEN was cheated out of the Office of presi.
dent in 1876 they would put him to the
front now, at all hazards, and do their level
best TO vindcate him through e.eloCtion
Their readiness to accept his letter of as
sumed withdrawal from the canvass,
though it can be read rs well one way
as the other, and can be tortured
into q shape which represents almost any
intent on his part, aud the alacrity with
which they retire him from the canvass, go
to show that they are reluctant to revive
the issue with him as standard d-bearer at
this time. The action on their part
now either continues or takes TTLDEN
and the question of 1876 entirely ont of the
ring, and relieves the canvass of all that
sort of nonsense which has been stored for
this campaign. Without him it is damaged
ammunition, which must he left by the
wayside, though there is an apparent dis
position on the part of the democrats to use
it. The setting of TGLDEN aside now, no
matter what the pretext for it may be, ex-
punges him aud all the collateral ques-
tions connected with the canvass of
1876 from the pending contest and spikes
some of the heaviest guns of the democratic
armament TTLDEN alone can vitalize the
questions connected with the results of the
last presidential struggle by his personal
connection with the present, and when he
retreats and deserts the field he hears all
that sort of ammunition with him and de
prives his friends of their material resources.
The democrats, must now seek q new
issue to fill the hole TILDEN's hack-out has
created, unless they fill it with cipher dis
patches that form the debris of his political
estate. The cipher must be utilized as
democratic invention, aud it may as well
be used to represent the place made vacant
by the retirement of TILDEN, who,
his friends claim, has been grieyously
wronged by the award Of the electoral
commission, which, after deliberate adju-
dication of the case declared that he had
not been elected president of the United
States. However, the democratic party has
the matter of putting him right still in Its
hands. His egotistical letter is not an alb
solute refusal to be candidate. 1t init
mated that "BARKIs is willin" still to be
used, and if the party desires to keep the
TILDEN issue alive, it has only to nominate
him and see how it works

WHEN we saw HENRY B. PAYNE the
other day, on Superior street, in Cleveland,
he was tripping along as blithely as boy
of seventy, and was evidently trying to fool
old Father Time as to the number of years
that had been measured out to him. He
evidently doesn't think that an old man
should be candidate for the presidency.

Poor LYMAN TRUMBULL Once IN hon
ored republican United States senator now
a political renegade. Mad ambition, disap-
pointed hopes, and non-devotion to the
principles of the party which brought him
into prominence were the causes which led
to his downfall, and we much mistake the
temper of the people of Illinois if they do
not this fall bury the ox-senator's guber.
material aspirations in ditch so deep that
they will forever thereafter lie there in the
filth and gnominy of the traitor.
WE do not believe that the result Of the
partisan decision Of a majority of the SUI
premc court of Indiana will be as seryccable
to the democrats sis anticipated by the lead
ers Of that party, The dissenting opinion of
Judge NIDLACK, lifelong democrat, can
not fail to convince honest men of that
party, many Of whom voted for the amend
mens, that tho party procuring the aunul-
ment is not worthy Of further confidence.
We believe that several thousands of such
voters will be induced to vote for republi-
can state officers this fall in order to secure
a resabmittal Of the amendments, aud to
mark their disapprobation Of the methods
of those opposed to them. Should this be
the case, aud should Indiana join Ohio in

THE Richmond Commonwealth is worried
because we have failed to record southern

sincerely hope that it will not DO necessary
to record any during the canvass, but our
confidence is not great that we shall be

begun. The candidate of bulldozers has
not yet been selected There is no occa-
sion for the exhibition of democratic argu.
ments in the south. The crash young
men" have not yet been furnished with
their whisky money and the necessary
ammunition; the republicans have not begun
to hold meetings, aud consequently there are
none to break up. That the material is
still on hand, that the spirit is willing in
democratic breasts in Virginia, is evil
denced by the bulldozing and ostracism
practiced on democratic readjusters by the
democratic funders in the recent Richmond

their hands in even at the expense of white

LIE Otnef day the democratic organ be-
gan with mock pity for General GAR
FIELD and then opened its budget of de-
famations on DE GoLYER, Credit Moblicr
and the salary grab. If GARFIELD was
democrat it would see nothing in DE COL
YER but asimple retainer of distinguished
lawyer in the common course of professional
practice; in the Credit Mobilier, only an
ordinary business transact ion which every
business man would have a right to make
without blush, and in the salary grab,
simple piece of non partisan legislation; and
the fact of his being one of the first to turn
his salary into the treasury would be set
forth in the glowing colors of patriotism.
These accusations show the weakness, not
of the republican candidate, but of his po-
litical opponents, every one of whom would
jump at the chance of bcnefting them
selves by enjoying transactions far more
questionable. That such scurfs and scav-
engers should set themselves up rs censors
