Il Presidential Possibility.
lFlmirs IN w 4azetta

The name of Henry B. Payne, of Cleve-
land, Ohio, has been frequently mentioned
in connection with the Democratic nomina-
ton for the Presidency. While Judge Payne
has personally no Overweening desire for the
nomination and is not an acknowledged
candidate, yet he has many admirers
in all parts OF the Union who feel that he
could be safely trusted to bear the standard
of the Democracy in the coming campaign.
Personally a man of the most pure and
upright character, his political ideas are in
every sense those OF Jeffersonian Demo-
Graf, and he is uufinching in his advocacy
of them; yet in spite of his strong partizan-
ship, he possesses so great personal popu-
larity in the Republican stronghold of the
Western Reserve OF Ohio, on account OF his
ability, probity and honor, that be never
fails, when candidate for Office, to poll q
large Republican vote in addition to the uni
ted support of his party friends.
The fact that Ohio is the only State hold
ing az election in October makes it import
ant that the candidate of the party should
be able to poll large vote in that State,
which is naturally Republican by small
majority. If by any chance the Democrats
should csrry it in the October election the
SUCCESS of the party in the November con-
test would be sure and certain. Mr.. Payne
certainly would do as we'll in Ohio as any
man who could be named, and in making
the nomination at Cincinnati this fact
should receive careful attention at the
hands of the convention. In this connec-
ton a rece interview with ex-Congress-
man English, of Indiana, in which he de-
clines to allow his name to be presented at
Cincinnati and comes out In favor of MIR.
Payne, will be found inter esting. He says
"The Democratic candidate ought to be 8
man who can unite all the factions in New
York and carry the most doubtful States.
Indiana is looked upon as reliably Demo
cratic. The drift of sentiment is evidently
toward ard may centralize on the OHIO mar
who will be least Objectionable to New York
and Henry B. Payne presents more of the
essentials of strong candidate than any
other candidate presented by Ohio" Should
Mr.. Tilden decline to be a candidate, OF
should the convention deem it the wiser
course not to nominate him, the convention
would find great difficulty in choosing a can
didate who would combine all the qualities
of ability, honesty, popularity and availa
biIity in more marked degree than does
Mr. Pavne.
