If il Had Been Grant.

Now that the Chicago convention has COM
pleted It's work and the republican presidential
ticket Is tn the field, the democrats are speak
lag their honest sentiments In regard TO the
strength that Gen. Grant would have com.
manded had he been nominated instead of Gen
Garfield. Northern democrats. as rule. be-
neyed that Gen. Grant would have been weak
candidate. They based this opinion upon the
assumption that many republicans OF the north
would have voted against him because OF their
hostility TO third term for any man. But, on
the other hand, the southern democrats almost
uniformly say that Grant would undoubtedly
have disrupted the solid south; that with him
as the republican candidate It would have been
nearly impossible to hold the states OF Virginia
North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and
louisiana in the democratic column. Leading
members of Congress from those states declare
that thousands OF democrats throughout the
section where secession once prevailed had
openly avowed their Intention to vote and work
for Grant If nominated; that the class of demo-
Gratis most anxious TO support him comprised
The active business men, such as banker5 mer-
chants, and manufacturers, who honestly be.
neved that another election of the ex-President
would forever silence and settle the sectional
question.
1t may be accepted as true, therefore. that
senators Conkling and Cameron were better
Informed In regard to the support their candi-
date could command In the south than those
who opposed him The friendly sentiments
Cen Grant expressed for the south during his
visit through that section have made him very
popular among those who once were bitterly
opposed to him, and, from all accounts should
anything ever be asked In his behalf from the
American people. as such, the ex-confederateS
VIII support the request earnestly.

Exit SeyuOur.

Your candidate 1 cannot be- are the words
which the Sage of Deerfleld again addresses to
the democratic party. For some time past an
impression has been current that Ex-Governor
seymour had In a measure reconsidered his
former determination on the subject and might
now be induced, under certain contingencies
to accept the democratic nomination for the
presidency; and In the light Of that belief the
party complications Of that organization seemed
very mnch stmplffied. To-day, however, every.
thing Is at sea again. An editorial article In
last evenings Utica Observer gives the country
the explicit and positive assurance that Gov
ernor Seymour SIS not, and cannot be, candl-
date. and could not accept a nomination, even
III one were rendered him. AS the Observer Is
everywhere understood to closely represent Mr..
SeymourS views and wishes and as this an
nouncement is made not only by authority but
by request, it may be regarded, we presume, as
finally settling the matter
This conclusion but confirms what was
announced In this column some months ago
1T was known by the writer at that time that
MI. seymour fully realized the fact that the
state OF bis health was such that he dared not
risk assuming the responsibilities of any
oihce or the excitement Of a political campaign
ID which he had the slightest personal interest.
His physicians have, in fact, long since advised
EFFORT, either physics or mental would be the
loosing OF the silver cord This warning Mr..
seymour seems unalterably determined to heed.
1l spite Of all that may be said to the contrary.
He feels that there is no such crisis In public
Affairs at the present time as would require him
10 lay down his life for the sake OF a probable
party victory, and says SO In almost as MANY
words The democratic party may therefore as
ven accept the decision now made anew as final
ana lrrevocable. and look elsewhere for stand
afd-bearer In the coming contest.

Shen the census enumerator calls. In the

ttnth OF the population Of Washington Is scat

consequences,

The withdrawal of Tilder and de.
clination Of Seymour has given promi.
nenCe to- many unlocked for dark
horses at Cincinnati. Bayard appears
to have the largest following of any OF
the prominent candidates. He is the
favorite with Tamnany. and if that
organization is allowed a representation
in the convention, it will strengthen
his boom materially. The regular New
York delegation seems to favor Payne,
of Ohio, but as Thurman has the del
egation from that State, it is not prob
able that Payne's- candidacy will be
pressed without Humans consent.
New York, New Jersey and Connect
cut hold the key to the nomination,
and it is certain that whoever they may
agree upon will be the nominee. Many
of the Western delegates favor Sey-
nous. but unless he is the choice Of the
majority of the delegates from New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut, he
will not be given an opportunity to
decline. There is no doubt of his re-
ceiving the nomination by reclamation,
if he consent to have his name brought
before the convention, but it is not
likely thas he will do so.
