Epson, n Democratic member of congress

Davis, of Texas, VINO is canvassing those
states for the Republicans. Wherever Davis
speaks Epson will reply to him. Mr., Upson
says Texas will certainly return five Demo-
cratic members of congress, probably a
solid delegation; that while Jones, Green
hacker, may be elected in the fifth district, a
good Democrat is against him, and the pop
ularity OF Hancock will probably carry the
district. The five other districts are securely
Democratic. The Greenbackers offer the only
real opposition to the Democrats, Mr. Epson
says, but their efforts to run an independent
state ticket, on which Republicans Green,
brokers and dissatisfied Democrats could
unite, have failed,
Congressman Ellis, who has been on the
stump in Virginia, is in the city. He thinks
Virginia safe for the regular party; that Gar.
fields vote will not exceed 10000 in the state;
that the Malone electoral ticket cannot pos.

A LITTLE OFF.

The man who would bulldozc himself
into power and place agains: the wishes
and will of the party INA oriiy, as Iilden
has done in New York, would not hest
tate to defy party demands if he were
once installed in the presidential chair.
Tildcn is such II trickster that he is new.
er To he depended upon.-Kansas City
Times.
While we are not disposed to question
the justice OF the foregoing observation
wrongs Mr.. Tilden so far rs his past,
present and future relations To his party
are concerned. Grant that lac is n trick
ster, and that his general methods arc OF
thut uncertain character which partake
largely Of the erratic tendencies Of the
Irishman's flea, and render it, mt times,
extremely difficult To put your finger up
on the evasiVe wizard of Cipher Alley.
Are not these the very qualitica tiOn
which have shade him indispensable TO
to his party in the past and
strengthens his claims upon
its support i'll the future? Have not Mr..
Tilden's crooked systems been freely en-
ploycd for even years prior to his nomi.
nation as Il presidential candidate in
1876, in canvassing the ends not only of
his own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but the success
of the Democratic party as we'll? Have
not his ample means purchased influ-
cncc, subsidized delegations, bought up
conventions and even sought To- buy en-
tire states, 10 the end that the scepter of
power might pass into Democratic
hands? 1t is doubtless true that in all
this he labored for his own personal in
tcrests, but how shall we divorce the
man from party whose policy
he has directed, to whose
platforms he has given tone
and with which he has become indis-
solubly incorporated? Mr.. Tilaen may
have been guilty of much to merit pub
lie censure, but he has never yet done
anything which entities him 10 the in
gratitude of the Democratic party. lie
has been its faithful servant as well rs
master in the past, and the cXigcncIes
into which il is drifting demand his fu
ture services. Ii the Democracy Goa
plate, rs the signs OF the times plainly
indicate, TO steal the presidency, Tilden
is their candidate. He has the ready
means TO operate the vast machinery
requisite TO the accomplishment of this
purpose; he alone is IN possession of the
! experience of a former experiment in
the same direction, and his ample
knowledge of the cipher dispatches, in
itself, makes him an indispensable factor
in the canvass of 1880.
Our contemporary of the Times i,
humbly invited to give this phase of the
question his prayerful attention, and not
allow his virtuOus Indignation TO achieve
any future triumphs over his better sense
of discretion.

HOW IT STANDS.

Our previous dispatches from the
Syracuse convention left matters in u
somewhat indefinite shape, but late adj.
vices of a general nature indicate that a
full line of Tilden delegates were chosen
for the Cincinnati convention, who will
be headed by ex-governor Robinson, and
instructed to vote as unit The dele
gates were not formally instructed, but
their rilden proclivities are well known
and there can be no doubt that they will
cast their votes for the great reform
apostle at the national convention. The
question, therefore, as to whether John
Kelly is bigger man than the sage of
cipher alley, is still q mooted point, and
Will not be definitely decided till the
gathering of tue faithful ut the Cincin-
natl circus. Meanwhile, inasmuch as
Mr.. Tilden has captured the New York
regulars, it would seem in accordance
with the eternal fitness of things that
some prominent Democrat" who enjoys
the confidence of the "great befrauded, -
should once more start on its familiar
round that exciting rumor that he has
concluded to withdraw.

A PARALLEL CASE.

The narrowing experience of senator
Voorhees, in connection with the exodus,
calls to mind the case of ncar-sighied
old gentleman in Iowa, who, in the
course OF n recent crusade against an nc.
emulation of winter rubbish, picked up
u wasp's nest, which had been thrown
into the yard from the attic, by an mad.
yertant servant girl. The venerable hero
of our episode ut first thought he had
picked up bunch of brambles by mis-
take, Then the forcible suspicion seiz,
cd him that he had probably run aioul
of "A hot Hat iron which the women had
set out in the yard to cool; and finally
it dawned upon his quickened faculties
that he had been enveigled into taking
to his bosom can of dynamite, left
within the precincts of his domestic
premises, by some predatory Nihilist
who, with internal craft, had thus laid
the plans for his destruction.
