THE PITFALLS IN OHIO POLITICS.

NEW YoRK, March 2.-"Gath" says: New
York State, according to the private talk
of ex-Lieutenant Governor VIM. Dorshelm-
er, will probably cast her vote for Mr.. NC
Donald. of Indiana. Mr.. Dorsheimer says
be is personally for Mcdonald and believe
from his acquaintance and observation,
that New York will be q Mcdonald State on
the first ballot. believe Mr.. McDolaid
has been written to from New York tothe
same effect.
The newspapers here will never give any
valuable information OF this kind. Among
some the suppressio veri is q regular Jesu'-
tical plan. If they see Mcdonald forging
ahead they will publish two or three turgid,
muddy columns at once, to show that Til
den is to be revived, and, to further
obscure the information, will affirm next
day that Conkling is going to assist Illden
to be revived. Knowing next to nothing
about national politics, having never hvea
in its centers among the public men, and
being without the political instinct, these
press Jesuits no sooner discover popular
movement started without their suggestion
than they strive to suppress 1t by steadily
ignoring 1t.

lieved, he will be easily nominated. New
York has no candidate Tilden is mere
combination of Dives and Lazarus, risen
from the grave and remandcd from Abra-
hams bosom, and it is the dogs un0er the
table, mindful of the old crumbs and the
old sores, who chiefly are taking up his
fortunes. Gov. Cleveland is a sensible, me-
diocre man, who knows he has not The au-
dacity and impostership to be happy OF

his little Buffalo end peace OF mind. Mean

the party, leaving out of il both Arthur

the Half Breed camp, and Cornell is to be
one OF the new Generalissimos.
