Colonel Cash, the South Carolinian of

atrociously cool and patronizing manner in which

The "Tribune" Buzzards.

The New York Tribune is very busy just
now in the work of directing public af-
fairs. One day it assumes that General
Arthur is soon to be President, and al
ternately begs and bullies, whines and
threatens on the question of who shall
have office under him. The next day it
seeks to trade upon the Presidents i'll
tive and patriotic Democratic Senators F"
for fusion by which the Senate can be
organized with Democrats in the minor
offices. The unseemly and indecent course
of the Tribune and others of its kind in
administering upon President Gariield's
official estate during his lifetime is in
strict harmony with the impudence which
makes it dare to print his name in its
columns at all after having vilitied him
as it did in 1878 by falsely accusing him
denying it. It's ravenous desire for the
election of Democrats over Republicans
to Senate offices is entirely consistent
with its publication of letter January
o, 1875, urging the assassination Of Presi-
dent Grant for having interfered with its
Bourbon friends who had been in in
surrection in Louisiana. Mr.. Gorham
is mentioned in the TriJune's article in
connection with an Office. He desires to
inform the Tribune that he is not con-
cerned on that subject, and does not feel
called upon TO engage in any wrangle
over it. The Senate will no doubt under

Ex-senator Tom Hendricks in recent
talk with that indefatigabc gathcrerofrot, "Gath,"
in referring to Tldens course after the election in
1876, said:
Had been the candidate at the head of the

would have been no contention either, because
the orderly portion Of the Republican party be-
lieved we were elected, and would not have re-
sisted our taking the offices, with Congress in our
favor.

had as much backbone as glue and molasses
