day after he had put away the woman who
was his lawful wife, and the mother of his
children he said: sin this sorrowful time it
was consolation to him to feel the deep
sympathy of his faithful people in the fate of
his family. This sympathy will be an en-
enlargement to him in the future to apply his
whole power for the welfare of his people. !"
Can brazeu, audacious, unblushing immo-
rality go further! Was it necessary to cast
off lawful wife, though, of humber BIRTH
and her children, to lustfully riot in the
charms of Queens daughter.
Did not the loathsome hypocrite, volun-
tarily produce the ''sorrowful time,n over
which he sheds maudlin tearss And what
can be said of Victoria, who in full view of
all this can place in his arms her youngest
daughter! She has already given him one
daughter, who had died, and now sanctions
the crushing out of morganatic family, to
give him another. The Queen mother must
have very obtuse moral sensibility to sane
ton such proceeding, and give another
daughter to an open and debased old rake.
And what can be said of the intelligence
and moral sensibility of people, to whom
the disgusting old debauchee can successfully
appeal for sympathy, Sin this sorrowful
times" Out upon royalty, if this is a
manifestation of its virtue and morality. In
view of all this, no wonder Queen Victoria
exhibits a capability of publicly showing her
passionate regard for the alleged Scotch SER
want, the deceased John Brown, to whom
some assert she was as morgan attic wife!

What Men at Washington Say.


WASHINGTON, July flowing to the whole
sale exodus of leading Democrats to Chicago, an
expression Of opinion in Washington concerning
the nomination Of Cleveland was mostly confined
to Republicans. Large crowds gathered at an
early hour at the Western Union telegraph office,
where bulletins OF events were displayed Pre-
dictions were made that Cleveland would be nom
mated on the second or third ballot to-day, but
his nomination the first ballot of to-day was
surprise
Adyices were received late last night from
trustworthy sources in Chicago, giving assur-
ances of Cleveland's nomination, and while
friends of Bayard, Mcdonald, Randall, Thurman
and others we're much depressed, they admitted
the impossibility Of efecting any combination to
defeat Cleveland. McDonalds supporters were
bitter in their denunciations at the manner in
which he was treated, charging that he had been
betrayed in the house OF his friends They
did not blame Clsyeland's supporters, but those
who were, as alleged, pledged to Mcdonald and
deserted his standard before the first gun was
fred. Republican officials at the several depart
rnents were in direct communication by wire with
the convention hall, and, therefore, received news
before bulletined at different telegraph stations.
The impression with the president and members
mated, and when word was received Of an effort
to make a boom for Hendricks, they predicted
its failure, saying # too late to bring relic
Of an old ticket forward for the first place when
New York had declared for a new man.
Sunset Cox was closeted in the private Office
of the manager Of the Western Union waiting
returns He did not believe Cleveland could be
nominated, but when rapid changes Of votes were
announced seized his hat and rushed out without
saying anything. He was seen later, however,
and declared his conviction that Cleveland would
sweep New York and be elected.
Representative Ellis, of Louisiana, said he wss
well pleased with the way things had gone. He
liked the platform and nomination. Cleveland
could certainly carry New York. Kelly's oppo-
sition would only strengthen him and he could
poll a larger independent vote than any other
man.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE outward trains
for the east were heavily loaded this after
noon, nearly vi the eastern marching organ
izations taking their departure. The .'Amer-
icus'' and ''RandalP' clubs of Philadelphia
paraded the streets before taking their leave,
bearing in addition to their club banners,
one inscribed with the name of Cleveland.
The Tammany braves, 600 strong, took a
special at O'Clock. Some of the members
took the outcome jocIlarly, but in the main
the crowd showed bitterness of spirit, and
some of the marchers displayed bits of Grape
in their button holes.
~ think the Democratic party has com
mitted han-kari," said one of the sachems.
A number of opinions are presented as
coming from John Kelly, but he declares
positively that he has not conversed with
any newspaper men, and that he has not
expressed any opinion on the situation, and
is not responsible for any statements coming
from Tammany members who may feel that
they have encountered a personal defeat.
Mr.. Manning, and the majority of the
New York delegation are exuberant, but
moderate in their speech Mr. Manning
says Cleveland win surely carry New York.
''By what majority!n
~ shall not predict majorities, but we shall
carry New York beyond any doubt. If the
other Democratic states do their duty, Mr.
Cleveland will occupy the White house after
next March. The party at large in the state
will give him as earnest support as it did Mr..
Tilden. ] am safe in promising victory in
New York state.
There were great crowds outside the con
ventien hall to hear the result of the ballot
ing, and heavy cheering followed the final
result. Cannons planted on the lake shore
took up the refrain and 100 rounds were
fired in rapid succession.
Gen. Butler was seen tonight but declined
to make any explicit statement in regard to

No MORE OF THE TAMW4NY. SC4LP
S4UCE

The Democracy have fooled long enough
with John Kelly and his Tammany following.
Concessions have been made to conciliate
him OF the most humiliating character, but
all to no purpose. He comes back with bitter
antagonism every time, with reckless hounds
like Grady, to breed confusion and disorgan-
ization. 1t began to look this year as if
Tammany would cooperate with the party
instead of fighting it, The expectation has
been disappointed. John Kelly fought Til
den at st. Louis in 1876, as he and his adj
herents have fought Cleveland at Chicago
this year But in 1876 Tilden was nominal
ed and elected in spite of Tammany's oppo-
stion, and Cleveland has been nomin-
ated and will be elected this year
in spite of the venal mercensry
Tammany crew led by John Kelly.
II is high time to disregard him, and his po
litical marauding band. The party should
cast them off utterly. Courted and attempted
to be conciliated, they are damaging mar
plot. Dsisregarded, stunned, defed, cast-out
they are not to be feared. Disown them as
a component part of the Democratic party,
following from the Philadelphia Times is COM
mended for its sensible view Of the unap-
peasable scalping knife, political bandit, and
its wild suggestions. Their Hi-yi-yi should
never again be heard in d Democratic con-
vention.
The Times says:
Gradually it is beginning to dawn on the minds
of intelligent Democrats that, whatever the re-
suit to the party, John Kelly mast be unoaded.
For years the pnrty's relation to Mr. Kelly has
been that of the unfortunate sutton who declared
he couldn't live without the woman he was
counting The result OF all this trucking and
| importantly is that the party has found out wha
the sutton found out after he married the woman
he wanted-t can't live with him. 1t has taken
some years to satisfy the party of this
fact, but there is no thoughtful man in the party
who is not convinced of it now.
John Kelly represents or rather owns his
personal property thirty forty thousand voters.
four and five million of voters Great as is the
disparity in point of numbers between the Tam
many forces and that of the main body of the
party there has not been a Democratic national
convention since the war in which there has not
been greater efforts made TO please John Kelly
than all the other millions of voters making up
the rank and file Of the purity And what has it
amounted to? Simply nothing at all. The party
has truckled to Kelly and Kelly has sold out the
party and one continuous succession of party
disasters has followed the efforts to pacify the
unpacifable chief Of Tammany.

An Iaterrie.c WiM Mr. Tilden.

l'PSNiti AOlSSitlili W tue OiODe.
New YORK, July 1I.-Your correspondent
paid visit to ex-Gov Tilden at his resi-
dence, Greystone, near YOnkers, to find out
how he liked the convention He sat in a
reclining attitude in big arm chair and his
right hand could be seen shaking with the
palsy which has troubled him for so long. A
pair of red slippers and blue smoking cap
gave the sage an oriental appearance in
keeping with the furnishing of the room.
''How do you do,' he said in a weak
voice, although his eyes glittered brightly.
He stretched out his shaking hand.
MIR. Tilden, how do you regard the nom
ination of Cleveland"' inquired the cores
pondent. Mr.. Tilden did not seem to be en-
thusiastic about it and replied somewhat
coldly:
ut is good nomination. Mr.. Cleveland
is very popular outside of his own state, and
think he will beat Blaine"
''You think he is not so popular in New
York;
The sage shut one eye and looked renec-
lively out upon the river as he answered:
well, there is great deal of opposition
likely to come from faction in New York
city, and | do not think his actions as COVER
nor have not met with general approval
among the wavering men of that city. Still,
have no doubt that he will carry the state"
'What do you think of the nomination of
Hendrcks?'
at is rather queer that Mr. Hendricks
should be put on the second place upon the
ticket. He will give it great strength, how
ever, especially in Indiana and the west Mr..
Hendricks is man who would sacrifice his
own ambition for the benefit of his party, and
of course will do all in his power to help his
own election. had an idea that he was not
so popular as the outbursts in his favor at the
convention proved. With hearty work all
around hope the ticket will pull through"
"Wil you take any part in the cam
paign!n
Mr.. Tilden smiled sadly as he replied,
"No, | have withdrawn from political life
forever. Still | want to see this great coun-
try in honest hands before dien
