presidency. he is not only not a candidate
for it, bat Ii Is by no means certain he would
accept il even if the nomination were ten
dered without his asking The editor OF
the Sentinel happens to know that Mr..
English has all the time been OF the opinion
that if Mr.. Tilden is nominated for presi-
dent, Mr.. Hendricks ought to be nominated
fer vice president. Neither is Senator
Mcdonald aspiring for the presidency, and
he certainly would prefer his present posi-
ton to the vice presidency. There Is, there
fore, not the slightest clsshing between these
gentlemen, and the Journal need not dis
tress itself about divisions in the Demo
cratic family. 1t will have. quite enough OF
that 90 look after in Its own household.
After March 4, 1851, Hendricks may be in
the presidential chair, Mcdonald In the
Ssnste, and English at the head of the treas
ury department, which would be quite sat
isfSctory to the Indiana Democracy. How
would the Journal like it?
