feet: Despite the many assertions said

consent 10 Dee the Presidential candidate
of the Democratic party in 1884, it may be
safely set down that a desperate effort
Will be made to nominate the old ticket,
with the fun knowledge and consent of
the two gentlemen most directly
interested. A short time ago Hendricks
made a quiet visit to Tilden and
effected an adjustment of the misunder-
standing which had existed between
them since the campaign of 1876. after
which he disclosed the real object of his
visit by trying to induce Tilden TO allow
his name TO 20 before the National Con-
VentIOu. After an extended cOnversa-
ton. IN the course Of which many Objec-
ti0ns advanced bv Tilden were met and
satisfactorily answered by Hendricks.
Filden said, well, | shouldn't mind it,
except for the labor of making another
campaign TO which Hendricks replied,
assuring Tilden that the campaign was
already made and he had only to speak
the word to secure the nomination. This
seemed to satisfy Tilden. and they parted
with the tull understanding that the old
people i'm 1851. Soon after Hen
bricks visit John Kelly made
journey to GreystOne on the
same business, presumably on Il hint
dropped by Hendricks. Kelly assured
,Tilden that he had buried the hatchet, and
was anxious To see the old ticket renomi-
mated. He said that he would work hard
and faithfully to accomplish that end, and
also TO secure their election. 1t is inti-
mated that Hendricks is actuated by the
fact that Tilden is an old man and de-
cidedly feeble. and that he Hendricks
would have much of the work OF the Presi-
Dental office to do. and would probably
become President before the end Of the
term by reason al Tilden's death or total
disability. Kelly wants Tilden nOmi-
mated so as to nay of old political debts,
and his nomination would retire CleVe-
land and others for whom he has a strong
dislike"
