TILDEN AND-HES NEW YORK FOES
 Those who thought and said that the cleo
 ton in the State of New York last fall killed
 MT. Tildsn are now obliged to confess al least that the corpse is e very lively one.
 More able and skillful management before and
 during 8 State convention than his has been
 would be hard to find. The Tammany men set themselves at work to secure large num-
 Der of anti-Tilden Democrats as delegates to the convention, with the intention of using them to make trouble and g bolt if necessary. They did not have hundred out of the near ly four hundred members of the convention. Having the power, Tilden and his ieutenants ran the convention in their own way, which was a very adroit though uncompromising way. They admitted such delegates as they wanted, poured serene contempt upon the overtures for peace made by the Tammany faction, elected delegation favorable to Til den and adopted the unit rule. They gave the convention all the weight of regularity" and left Mir. Kelly and his followers In the dise- greeable position of workers against the har- mopy and best interests of the Democratic party.
 The Tammany convention did all that was left for it to do, and provided for continuing the contest with Mir. Tilden at Cincinnati. It is probable that Mir. Tilden will control the Cincinnati convention, and the Tammany delegates will be treated there according to his orders if they present themselves for ad- mission. The situation is very interesting If Tammauy cannot be conciliated it can prevent the Democrats carrying New York. So can MT. Tildep, unless he has his way. Tammany wants to get back into the party, but does not want to surrender to MT. Tilden. What will come out of the muddle remains to be seen, but it is extremely unlikely that NIT. Tilden will be the one beaten.
 The New York World, which has steadily and sometimes bitterly opposed Mr. Tilden, speaks it's mind about the convention. It says: "The committee Con contested seats) reduced the convention to such 6 condition that it really represented MT. Tilden. if not with as much accuracy as Mir. Tilden's con vention in 1870 represented Mir. Tweed, at least with as much accuracy as MT. Faulkner's un- derstanding of MT. Tildens intentions would permit, and it did not represent either the WI AHJOithJ OA ANC" AOiA DOLIO- crsts who care moro for the success of the Democratic party than they do for ths sue cess of MT. Tilden, or the smaller but still de- cisive majority of New York Democrats who are distinctly opposed to the nomination of MT. Tilden, or the active minority which is pledged to defeat Mr. Tilden in any event, and which has proved it's power to defeat him. But while the World does not like the convention, it thinks the condition of the Democratic party in New York is melancholy enough Ito lead all Democrats who care more for their party than they do for the interests or aspirations of any in it, and more for success in the elections next November than for the pleasure of spiting John Kelly or any body else, to consider seriously by what means the party can be reunited for the con- ing canvass" Unless Mir. Tilden's paralysis or some other of his numerous diseases incapaci- tates him for thought and action the necessi- ty of uniting the Nov York Democrats will become still plainer to the World.
