JOHN w. DANIEL, chairman of the Vlr.
ginia Democratic delegation to Cincin-
natl, has addressed fulsome letter to
Gen. HANCOCK, which has found lis way
into the public prints, communicating to
the General the congratulations of the
Virginia delegates, and their sense of sat-
isfaction upon the event Of his nomina-
ton. He represents that the nomination
has awakened enthusiasm, not only
among the delegates, "but throughout
the old commonwealth which they had
the honor to represent" In this dele.
gates judgment, ''no possible nomination
would have been welcomed with
such intense satisfaction or such
exultant JOY. 1t has suppressed faction,
inspired confidence, destroyed sectional
hate and revived in the hearts of the PEG.
pie that generous patriotism which be-
longed to the days of old" In view of
the fact that the Democratic party of the
Old Dominion is to-day rent in twain by
faction, this is moderately extravagant
statement. AS to sectional hate, the very
late exhibitions at Montgomery, Ala, in
the attempts to break up Republican
meetings, are not the best evidences that
it Is yet entirely destroyed. To this SICK
ishly adulatory letter, Gen. HANCOCK re-
plies, most cordially thanking DANIEL
for it, expressing the highest degree of
qualification that his nomination gives
satisfaction to the Virginia delegation,
and expressing his sense of Indebtedness,
"not only for the kindest feelings, but for
ardent and effective SERVICE" whatever
that may mean.

The PARTY WITH A BAD REC Ord
Judge TRUMBUGL, who is now the Demo.
cratic candidate for Governor Illinois,
is an original Democrat, but for some
years, commencing with the Democratic
shareholders rebellion, he acted with the
Republican party, and represented that
party for two terms in the United States
Senate. Here is his opinion of the Dem
ocratic party, pronounced in the Senate
in 1872 II was truthful portrait OF the
party, drawn by one who had had good
opportunities for making up a correct
judgment, and the party has done moth.
Ing since that time to change its correct
ness. Its record has only been changing
from bad to worse ever since. Hear VIII at
its old-time and present champion says
of it: "The Democratic party has never
yet done an act that would commend 1t
to the favorable consideration of the peo-
pie of the United States, but on the con.
trary, it's traditions and its acts are now
and ever have been standing menace to
the progress of the civilization of the
nineteen tn century"

THERE is trouble among the Democracy

THERE is trouble among the Democracy
of Indiana. Before the meeting of the
Cincinnati convention, there were in that
State three prominent candidates for
nomination for the Presidency, the most
conspicuous of whom was Mr.. HEN
bricks, and MCDONALD stood next in the
public estimation. The convention could
not see sufficient strength in any one OF
the three for the first place on the ticket
but gave the weakest the second place
This has caused such heart-burnings and
discomfort, that it is said that the Demo.
cratic leaders are seriously considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of requesting Mr.. ENG.
LIsH to withdraw from the ticket. The
National Committee are holding meet
ing in New York to-day, and this is to be
one of the subjects for discussion before
that body. Whatever may be their action
in the premises, it is too late for them to
devise anysmethod to carry Indiana. The
unpopulsrity of ENGLISH may be one
cause to help their defeat, but there are
other and more efficient causes which will
continue to act to their detriment and de-
feat.

\ WASHINGTON Bourbon organ ha

A WASHINGTON Bourbon organ has in
vented new project by which to raise
funds to carry on the HANCOCK and ENG.
LIsH campaign, and asks its Democratic
contemporaries to endorse Its suggestions.
It proposes that the Confederate SOL
diers be called upon to subscribe five
dollars each, for a campaign fund, and as
/" a tribute to the maintenance Of civil lib
erty and free government for their pos.
terity." It estimates the receipts from
this source at $1,5OO,0OO, and suggests
that 100000 more be raised in the
North, regarding the grand aggregate as
"amply sufficient for all legitimate pur.
poses" This seems eminently appropri-
ate, and would be an adequate substitute
for TILDEN's bar'l, but there Is yet some
doubt whether the ex.Confederates would
come up to man and cash the little as
sessment.

LAWRENCE r. JEROME, Jr., and ED
WARD III. PATcHELL, the young stock.
brokers of New York who appropriated
lost funds to their own use, are in bad
fix and seem to realize their situation.
Persons who have read only the reports
of the case furnished by the telegraph
may be at loss to conceive what posi-
BILE motive the young men had for such a
stupid theft. The true explanation prob.
ably is that they had been drinking and
were little "wild." They both confess
that after putting the securities away in
PATCHELL's safe they went on spree,
and were arrested in that condition.
None of the bonds were negotiated. 1t
Is an entirely reasonable conjecture that
they were holding them only for re-
ward. They have no case for defense.
The securities were in an envelope which
had printed on it the name of BRAYToN
IVES & Co., and below list of the con.
tents, with the par and market values of
the same written in parallel columns.
During the examination young JEROME
wept copiously. His father, LAWRENCE
JEROME, was overcome with grief, and
took to his bed. PATCHELL was the rep
resentative in this country of several i'm
portant financial houses OF England. The
whole sad affair should be warning to
young men who are disposed to indulge
In "larks."

Mr.. MCCABE, of Indiana, contestant
for the seat, in the National House of
Representatives, of Hon. G. S. ORTIZ,
whose case was supposed to have been
disposed of adversely to him, McCABE,
processes to have discovered, at this late
day, new evidence of bribery and corrup.
ton on the part of Mr.. OPTH, by which
he proposes still to do away with that
gentleman's majority and establish his
own claim to the seat. AS Indiana will
hold the balance of power, in the event
that the election OF President is thrown
into the House, it is easy to see the mo-
tive for this claim. The Congressional
delegation of the State stands at present
six Republicans, including Mr.. ORTIZ,
six Democrats, and one Greenbacker. It
is somewhat uncertain which way Mr.
De LAMATYR, the Greenbacker, who
would hold the casting vote, might de-
eide, though he is believed to be reason
ably liable to vote with the Democrats.
But to avoid all contingency, 1t is pro-
posed to GUST MIR. ORTH, upon false pre-
lenses, which act would leave the Demo.
Gratis clearly in the majority, without DE
LAMATYR, and would ensure the choice
of Democratic President in the event it
was left to the House to decide. The
party which proposes to effect this change
and consummate this gigantic fraud, for
strictly partisan purpose is the same party
that with mock honesty PIRATES about
fraud and fraudulent returning boards.

Character of Hon. PhIlo A. Orion.

The Milwaukee Sentinel, in noticing the
letter of Judge ORION, declaring himself
for Gen. GARFIELD, closes review of the
letter with the following paragraph, relat
ing to the general character and position
Of Mr. ORION in the Democratic party in
past years:
These are the expressions of high
minded honorable gentleman who has
been Democrat all his life. Judge Or.
ton has been resident of Wisconsin for
over thirty years, was at one time one of
tie most prominent of the lawyers of the
State, and is now banker at Darlington
In 1851 he was the Dem )cratic
candidate for Attorney General of the
State; in 1868 he was elected by the
Democrats as the prosecuting attorney
offs Lafayette County; in 1864 he was
delegate to the Nationals Demo-
cractic Convention, which nominated Nc
Clellan; in 1870 he was elected County
Judge by the Democrats; he was the
Democratic candidate for Circuit Judge
and in 1875 he was the Democratic candi
date for Congress. Nothing but keen
perception Of the danger that threatens
the nation could have comeplled him to
leave the Democratic party. The only
time he ever revolted against his party
was when 1t renominated Taylor for
Governor after the character of the man
was known, in which he was joined by
many other prominent Democrats. 10
his letter Judge Orion says what thou
sands OF Northern Democrats think; he
simply has greater courage than the aver.
age man. No decent Democrat will
throw stones at Judge Orton-he is right
and intelligent Democrats know 1t,
whether they dare follow his example or
not.
