/ gjnia TO SURRENDER To the KeadJusters. one
organ says it is only matter of political ETH
auette anyway. OF course all that the party
wants is success, and no principle is to be al

tried to scale down the national debt by pay

advised by its organs to hesitate about sup
porting the repudiators' ticket in any State If
eleven electoral votes are to be gained there

Under date of June 18th, Judge jeremiah s..
Black writes from Paris to the Phla Times i:
81 have been General Garfield's devoted
/ friend for many years, and am resolved that
never will believe that be does not deserve
the affection have bestowed upon him. If
he would carry the principles which regulate
! his private life into his public conduct he
would make the best Chief Magistrate we
have ever had. But he will act for the inter
ests of his party, as he has acted all his life
time and that will require him to take the
advice which Stephens gave to Montpe-
lius in the buckshot war. do not know any
really CORD man who has done and assisted IN
doing so many bad things in politics as Gen.
Garfield /" The people viii give General Gar

That Solid South over which the Demo-
Gratis have felcitated themselves SO much
may yet prove to be nothing but broken
reed The action of the Virginia Readjusters
has carried confusion into the ranks ofsthe
| Bourbons.i The demands from the party or
gans that the two factions shall harmonize
are loud and peremptory The Richmond
journals admit that the course of the Malone
men has made the loss of the State probable,
The Commonwealth says. : The only pos
sble effect of putting third ticket in the
field will be to take off such a number of the
4 Democratic voters from the regular Demo-
cratic ticket as to make the Republican cleo
toral ticket receive plurality. 1t is u scheme
to assist IN the election of Garfield The
State does not try to conceal the danger, but
calls upon the opponents of the Readjusters
: to make no compromise. The cause for the
trepdatiou of the Democrats IL very apparent
when the vote cast in the State at the last
Presidential election is considered. The vote
for Tiden was 130,670; the vote for Hayes
05,55S. The Democrats are split into almost
exactly equal factions, aud will therefore poll
less than ~, 600 votes each. Should the Re-
publicans poll full vote they would have a
large plurality over either faction. Virginia
iwould seem to be pretty good missionary
ground for the Republican party to look for
eleven electoral votes.
