: The Democrats in 1880 were full Of the |
dee that Ga,Aeld's personal record and |
he scandals attaching to his name during
,is Congressional career would give them
~ easy victory. In that view they made
heir nominations, and resorted 10 even
greater lily in the preparation Of q plat
orm which has carried lis curse TO thii
very hour. At that time they had no! been
liyided by b long and bitter quarrel In
'hsir own rapkp, got up expressly 10 furth
got, though they did not carry the weight
and disadvantages they now do, the party
sas signally defeated. 1t starts now weak.

1t will be a very vain reliance 10 depend
npon.hs support OF such persons as Carl
Schu,z, Charles Francis Adams and George
William Curtis, who are probably at this
very moment taking the initial steps to
ward making peace with the auccessful
nominee from Maine. This Glars OF dud.
reiormers talk Aiprantly Of supporting thu

low them to dictate II. Their iavorites are
Cleveland and Bsyard. Two weeks sgo
they wern iot E5munds, Arthur, Lincoln
and HaYlsy. The rsforn, sentiment which
can Jump In two weeks from one oil these
men to the other Is not likely 10 receive

Governor Cleveland has made himself

In 1880 there was Senatorial cabal for
Biyad and one for Med maid. They
could not DO got to pull together, although
they combined In .decrying all other can
d,dates. This division continued up to a
recent period. y@'4.t
The CANA for Mcdonald was carefully
set up. Garland, i. OK, Jonas, Vest, Harris
aud other Senators were interviewed yeal
sgo, and declared for Mcdonald. The
country did not respond. The boom would
not boom. The ir q tent pilsrimaRes oil
Mcdonald to this city failed to stir the
waters The shadow OF "the old ticket
Hhriveled up the Mcdonald boom, and it Ia
now q thing of the past It exists only as
a "Reminiscences. z
The Senatorial advocates are now chant
ing for B.yard, aud offer him as the true
gospel as Justify as they echoed one short
year ago the gospel Of Mcdonald. The
Bayard Senatorial cSbal has inaugurated q
grand movement, aud II the boundaries OF
tho great Western Rspnblicwere limited to
the north wing OF the Capitol, and the pro-
nonnced del. gates about to. assemble at
Chicago had proper respect for the .ns.
torial loga. the whole STAIR would already
be over. The dude PRESS which is back,
ing Cleveland, would be elbowed from the
front RANK, and Cabinet could be con.
structed in the Senatorial cioak.room in
which the name Of Carl Schurz would ap.

In view Of The uncertainty Of human
affairs, and the disposition OF the Demo.
cratic delegates to do their own voting re-.
gardl.ss OF instructions from this city, it
will probably be deemed necessary for a
strong delegation Of Democratic Senator'S,
headed by Wade Hampton, to proceed to
Chicago aud occupy the town with their
augutspresence Up to this tins tbs Bayard
boom hsa not elected many delega,ea. 1t
has, perhaps, dozsn all told. It may pick
up few more in South and North Caro-
lima, but. uoneare to be had from the great
pivotal States OF the North, which are to
decidsths elections. liE!ttt549 ii55@5
< II Tilden's declination ia final and posi-.
tiye,Is is believed that the disposition Of
the delegates at Chicago will be to agree
upon come candidate who is favored by
the delegates from New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Ohio and Indiana, the States
in which the Presidential battle ia to be
fought and Won or lost. In such event the
nominee would DO one OF judgment, and
not Of wild enthusiasm and excitement,
Thera would BIS far less noise, shouting,
hurrahing aud excitement than there was
at Chicago lust week; but tho foundation
would be laid in isr suter manner for q
victory in November. The nominations
might LACK the roth that characteriz 4d the
nomination Of 1850, but the ticket would
wear well, and commend itself to those
who vote. II it nhould unite the Demo-
cratic party and carry no dead weight in
regard to the tariff or old war issues, 1t
would be apt to win.

tors are rot only pressing Bsyard, but are
