Mr.. TiIden in 1884.
The Chicago Times says:

The Chicago Times says:
"Mr. Tilden' is unable to convince
himself that the country is not yearning
for some of his evidently-celebrated re-
form, and he is preparing to satisfy
this craving in 1884.
This is only one of many circulating
paragraphs of similar purport that are
wholly meaningless, except as they be-
tray the holy fear concerning Mr.. Til
den's political purposes which animate
the uneasy souls OF his enemies. 1t
there is any one man whom these Re-
publican managers hate, because they
fear him, more than they do another.
that man is the New York statesman
who was elected to the Presidency
(Which was stolen by Hayes in 1876
BY 260, 900 majority.
There need be no doubt in the world
that Samuel j. Tilden would prove TO
be the most powerful leader and q tri-
umphant candidate If he could be in
the field in 1884. No candid and COM
potent judge can nationally question
that he would have beaten Garfield in
Indiana in October, and in New York
and Connecticut in November, 1880. if
he had consented to be q candidate at
Cincinnati. But Mr.. TiIden will never
again be q candidate for any Office.
Mr. Tilden would not undertake the
duties Of the Presidency for all the
power and honor which that position
could confer upon him. His resolution
was taken long ago to retire from active
politics and public life. and if it has
been at any time seriously shaken,
either by the demands of his party OF
the ardor of his friends, those who
know best have not been permitted to
have the least suspicion of it. - From a

In the elections of this year almost
the entire interest of the people will be
concentrated upon Virginia. Neither
in Ohio nor in any other State will the
election have anything like the signifi-
canoe that belongs to the Virginia con-
test The people of Virginia find them
selves engaged in a conflict in which
the honor and fame rs well as the well
fare and prosperity of the State are in
volved. In intensity and energy this
contest has no parallel since the men,
orable election in 1856 in which Vir-
ginia rolled back the tide of Know
Nothing fanaticism and infused new
life and hope into the National Democ-
racy. In the fall elections of 1854 the
Know Noth:ngs had swept nearly all
the Northern States, almost completely
absorbing in their organization what
remained of the old Wing party. Elatcd
by their victories the Know Nothings
threw off all mystery and disguise and
boldly proclaimed to the country their
proscriptive principles. The Wing
party was destroyed and the utmost
gloom pervaded the party OF the De-
mocracy in the presence of this tri-
umphant and VindiCtiye political orDan
ization.
In this situation the campaipn opened
in Virginia in the spring of 1873.

1t Is impossible to disguise the posi-
tive reluctance of the people to Mr..
Arthur's possible accession to the Pres
idency. Mr.. Arthur himself cannot but
see it, and il, unfortunately, he should
be called to the high station. he will
enter it with this popular feeling inn
pressed on him in way which cannot
be misinterpreted. And vet, it may be
founded on a miscalculation of what he
would do. 1t is no ones fault but his
own that the people would give him no
hearty welcome to the high Office. He
may thank himselffor it. In the event
of Mr.. Garfeld's death, no one could
succeed him but Mr.. Arthur. The Con-
stitution. defective as it is on some
other points of succession, is plain
enough on this. He is the undisputed
Vice. President, and the Vice President
is the undisputed successor to the Pres
idential vacancy. The country recog-
mixes this fact and acquiesces in it; II
Mr.. Garfield should die, Mr.. Arthur
would, OF his own volition, go before
some proper official and take the
oath, and. without further cere-
mony, assume the attitude and
functions of President-and the coun-
try would recognize him without oppo-
sition. But the country would the next
moment place itself in an attitude of
anxious, stern expectancy to see what
the new President would do. There
are apprehensions felt in some quar-
tiers that he would undo Mr.. Garfeld's
work, and traverse Mr.. Garields poll
cy. or to give shape to vague, popular
fear. that he would attempt to bring
Grantism again to the front, make his
friend, ex-senator Conkling, his chief
adviser, and shape his general policy
and appointments in the interest Of
General Grant. But it may be doubted
that Mr.. Arthur would, even if he had
the opportunity, start out on an enter
prise SO full of hazards as this. Even
admitting that he might desire to do it,
he has sagacity enough to see that
the mere attempt would end in over
whelming and disastrous discontinue.
Even the nominally irresponsible pow
ers that q President is invested with |
must be welded in strict account
ability to public opinion. and in this |
case If MIR. Arthur were to attempt |
to reverse the present policy and |
bring forward Grantism, he would |
encounter a storm of popular |
condemnation at every turn. The |
people would watch him with q vigil |
liant and. perhaps, intolerant suspicion. |
The Garfield policy in addition to being
cordially approved for it's manifest adj.
