In a recent interview MI. William II. Bar
nun, being asked concerning the Blrdsall rev.
Citations and what he knew as to Mr.. TIlden's
attitude toward General Hancock, expressed
the opinion that Mr.. Tilden could have no
motive of unfriendnes toward General Han
cock. but that he was honest 10 his support OF
him. Says Mr.. Barnum: "Not only was Mr..
sTilden free from any disappointment in not
sbeing nominated himself, but he WAS con-
suited beforehand in respect to General Han
acock nomination. l telegraphed to him on
Gtne subject and he answered that the choice OF
General Hancock would be agreeable to him."
This hardly touches the question. MIR. Bird
sails disclosures indicate not that Mr.. Tilden
was opposed to General HancOck's nomination,
but that he was very anxious that Hancocks
vote-particularly in this State-shoud fall
behind his own in 1876 50 that it could not
he said that Hancock was thu more popular
candidate. The feeling was not unnatural
one in a mind constituted as Mr.. Tilden's is
generally believed to De. 1t WAS not that he
loved Hancock less but Tilden more.
But there is further significance in Mr..
Barnum's remarks to which we beg the atten-
ton of the members of the County Democracy
and all other Democrats who think they are
honestly opposed to Bossism.' He says Mr.
Tilden was consulted beforehand by telegraph

and that he answered that the choice would Do

the National COMMITTEES had consulted Mr.
Tjlden and found that it would be agreeable

APE THE NEWSPAPERS TO BLAMEi

This ia the view that some people are taking
of the prevalence of suicide and other fDrms OF
violent crime-that the newspapers are partly
responsible. They give more or less space,
according to their character, to news OF this
kind. Persons of the lower grades of intelli-
pence especially read the criminal records,
conceptions of murder and self-muTder be-
rome familiar to them, and when some crisis
comes the mind turns more swiftly to the
Thought that ends with blow OF apistol-shot
than il would if it were not already saturated
with such ideas. And this is only part of the
general indictment which is often made-that
publicity is one of the crying evils of the age.
These critics say that nothing is sacred against
the inauisitiveness of the newspapers. Private
life is in yaded, and the fierce light of the press
beats into every home.
There are newspapers and newspapers, of
cenrse. and some of them have good deal &c
answer for Those that make a trade of sem
satlOnalism are not scrupul0us as to either
their matter or their manner of presenting It.
But little reflection will show any one that
these form comparatively small class among
the journals of the country. Charles Dudley
Warner, in speaking on the subject OF the press
two OF three years ago, said that the moral
tore of newspaper was usually higher than
that of the community III which it was printed.
There was no little truth in this observation.
Even the most sensational newspaper hardly
furnishes crime and scandal enough to satisfy
it's readers, and the respectable newspaper has
to make up its mind to do without the custom
of large portion of the community because II
will not pander to diseased appetite for de-
tails of revolving crimes or unclean gossip.
There is another point on which the newspa-
pers are liable to he misunderstood by the
public, through lack of information. The pub
lie does not see and therefore cannot appre-
ciate, the vigilance which is exercised in every
respectable newspaper Office to keep such news
out of its columns. More care and discretion
are needed in this matter than the average
reader realizes. The system of news collection
becomes more complete every year, and the
field is swept more thoroughly each time than
the time before. The wheat ana chat come III
together, and it is the province of the clean
newspaper to see that IA little of the latter is
used as possible. Probably the average reader
would be surprised il he could see the quantity
of news that Is thrown aside each day because.it

IL II had not been considered IN detail by one OF the
new standing committees. The same committee mas
been at work upon the Patents bill, and another
committee has reported Criminal Appeal bill, and
probably these measures still remain to be disposed
of by the Commons. The Irish Tramwsys bill ana
one or two minor are also to DO discussed
in committee, bat the work of tho session Is VIZ
tually completed. The Lords, after holding half
hour sessions week after week with no business to
occupy them, now have great number OF legisla-
tive measures to consider during single fortnight.
This would not be regarded IN republican COM
munity as q satisfactory division OF legislative
labor.
The suicidal mania now prevailing becomes more
methodical each day. Witness Farmer Peacocks
fate in Barnwell County, South Carolina. The
immediate agency of death was morphine but the
remote cause was melons 1t was not that he ate
too many and then sought to deaden the pangs Of
collie unwisey, but too well. He planted too
many, having engaged in truck farming on large
scale and Overestmated the capacity of the North
ern stomach. He met with heavy losses, grew de-
spondent, and resolved to end his life. But mark
the method in his madness. He went ont into his
melon patch cleared and staked oa small section Of
it for his grave made his wil took the cold poison
enough and to spare gave directions for his burial
to the expense of calling doctor. So was he gath
cred to his own melon vines in an orderly and ex-
peditous manner.
large number of distinguished EnglIshme2 have

these il Lord Coleridge who is to be the guest OF
the Bar Association. The Lord Chief Justice will
be accom- panied by Sir James Hammer. one of the

Radical Professor, James Bryce, the man who has

TILE STATE CONTENTION

The Renublican State Committee have mado
+, wise choice Doth in the time and place OF tho
State Convention. Richfeld Springs is grow
ing resort, which has come nearer 10 fN",iS
with Saratoga this year than ever BEFORE hs
situation is central, the hotel accommodations
ara good and are said to be adequate, ana the
neople promise to build a wigwam for the Con-
yention. Then, too, it has no unpleasant asso-
ciations. such as linger about Saratoga from
last years convention. 1t has been charged
that the Geographic facilities were not good at
Ricb6eld. Now at Saratoga last year they
were too good.
The Committee did we'll also in not making
the Convention too early. Beginning Sep
temher 10, there will be little over six weeks
for the work of the campaign. which will be
enough. The chief gain, however, is in the
opportunity it will give large class of Repub-
lcans in this city, who are now absent, to join
in the election of the delegates from New DIX
under the plan adopted by the Committee or
Eighteen and approved by the Central Com
mittee. That plan, as our readers know, puts
all Republicans on an equality in the primaries
and if the New York delegation to the Rlch-
field Convention is not the best that has gone
from this city in many years, it will be the
fault of the men who having heretofore COM
planned that they had no voice in the party
management, fail now, when they can have 1t.
The harmonious action of the Committee
points to Convention in which there VIII be
no quarrolling, and to close union OF the
party in the campaign, on a ticket on which
there will be no scratching.
