PHILADELPHIA Press: Any man who
claims to have been elected president of the
United States, yet, with greater philosophy
than Diogenes', has quietly remained in his
barrel without attempting to fill the seat
from which he has been kept out, ought, as
simple matter of justice, to receive asecond
nomination, so that the people can testify to
his fitness for filling the office. If the DEM
ocrats will only recognize this, and nominate
Mr.. Tilden, he will receive the grandest tes-
timonial to his fitness that man ever had,
as the election of General Garfield will

DoRMAN B. EATON, the well-known ad-
vocate of civil servics reform, says of Gen.
eral Arthur: HE is man amply quail
fed to discharge with dignity and honor the
duties of the Office for which he is nOmi-
mated. He is a well-balanced man. He has
patriotic spirit. He has maintained an un-
blemished private life. He has had large
experience in public affairs, and can be
trusted to do well anything that will ever be
put upon him. Therefore you may, without
qualification, indorse him as a man worthy
to fill the second highest place in the ma

No better evidence of the general feeling
of satisfaction over the work of the Chicago
convention can be found than the following
from the New York Evening Post: "The
harmonizing effect of the nomination of
Garfield and Arthur was demonstrated at
the Republican ratification meeting in Coop
er Institute last Saturday evening. The
machine and the Independents were both
represented, and for once peace and good
will prevailed between the two branches of
the party. AS the Republican party has not
gone into an election in this State in long
time without more or less dissatisfaction OH
the part of its members, the conspicuous ap-
pearance of harmony and union at the first
meeting of the canvass is of considerable
significance"

Cincinnati Gossip.

The impression has got about, and is very
generally entertained 10y the newspaper
correspondents who have already arrived at
Cincinnati, that Mr.. Tilden has written a
letter Withdrawing from the contest and
that the letter will be published before the
Convention meets. 1t is very evident that
he is not the choice of two-thrds of the
delegates and it is difficult to see how he
can bring enough votes to his support to
make his canvass success. Under these
circumstances letter of withdrawal would
have the appearance of magnanimity, and
perhaps would be the shrewdest thing the
defeated candidate could do.
1t was thought at the time the Chicago
nomination was made that no man from
Ohio would stand show at Cincinnati. 1t
is now intimated, however, that Mr.. Til
denis strength, such as it is, will be turned
over to Henry B. Payne, and that his pros
poets for securing the coveted honor are
good. tits understood that in case Mr..
Payne is nominated the Maine delegation
will present the Hon. Bion Bradbury of this
State as candidate for Vice President, max
ing the absurd claim that Maine is debate
able ground. There are those who refuse to
believe in the sincerity of Mr.. Seymour's
refusal to serve, and should he show any
signs of weakening he will undoubtedly
head the ticket. No man whose name has
been mentioned could carry the Convention
against him. If Gov. Seymour persists in
his declination Mr.. Payne stands as good a
chance perhaps as any other of the aspir-
ants. The Bayard men are making good
fight, and their assertion that Bayard and
Payne would make the most respectable tick
ct thatcoul be named meets with few denials.
But the impression is very general that Bay
ard cannot be nominated, the South fearing
that with him it would be put on its defense
Judge Field had considerable strength a
week ago, but it shows no signs of increase.
All that can be safely predicted is that un-
less Mr.. Tilden does withdraw the struggle
in the Convention will be long and bitter,
and that if he does the delegates will speed
lily settle upon choice.
