pronosing to Rererse the Ticket.

1 proposing TO hefeTSe the ItCkets
The editor Of the Times, at Albany, New
I York. is satisfied with the Democratic
nominees, but he thinks that Hendricks
| name ought to be first and Cleveland's
| second. He proposes, therefore, to sup
! mort Cleveland and Hendricks, but viii, at
the same time, insist that if the Demo-
| Gratis are successful the electoral college
shall select Hendricks for President and
Cleveland for Vice President. He argues
at considerable length in favor of the
right Ofthe electoral college to choose any
body it desires within the party for Pres
| ident and Vice President. Without ques-
| tiOning his position with regard to the
power Of the electoral college, it may be
safe. perhaps. to assume that the Albany
1 editor is something Of a crank. Whatever
the electoral college may have done in
the early days Of the Republic, it
is certain that it would be a very extra
ordinary condition Of affairs that would
induce the country to acquiesee in any ac-
ton Of the electoral college that did not
fully carry out the viii of the people as
\ expressed at the polls. Probably the time
will never come when the electoral col
lege will undertake to choose any other
man President than the one indi-
Gated by the ballOt-bOx. Since
the adjournment Of the convention
numerous individuals of more or less
prominence have expressed the opinion
that the ticket was reversed, and that the
head was where the tail ought to be.
Doubtless these individuals are not
friends Of Cleveland. Every daY it is be-
coming more apparent that no mistake
was made, aud before the campaign is
closed the opinion will be about unani-
nous that the ticket is right as tits. Cleve-
land has the qualities which are needed
in a President in more marked degree
than Hendricks has. Hendricks may
have a wider knowledge than Cleveland
has OF national affairs, because he has
been in public life much longer, but he Is
certainly not his superior in those quail
ties which it is necessary chief magis-
trate should possess.

why the Bachelor Governor Never OBJ
tained Br1de-The Hero Of Many Az
fairs of the Heart-A Brunette Lady
who May Grace the White House Par
IOrs.
BUFFALO, July 13.-Gov. Cleveland has
had many love affairs, but not so much as
a bachelor Of his weight, politically and
socially, would be expected TO have. His
love affairs have all been Of the platonic
kind, and il is said by his friends that he has
been incapable Of falling deeply enough IN
love to propose to any girl since ne be-
came a lawyer in 1859. When he was
just able to support himself he became
enamored of a pretty and beautiful
Young woman who was q rela-
tive OF the late Judge Verplanck.
The girl was not disposed to look fayora-
bly, on his suit, and this made him love
her the more. She was quite a Hirt and
delighted 10 tantalize him by permitting
other young men to escort her home from
the old Eagle Street Theatre, which was
then the only place Of amusement Of any
account in the city. The girl was COM
parativeIy wealthy and looked down on
Grover, who was a poor lawyer. After
awhile she got to thinking fondly OF him,
and it is said that they were engaged to
fever and died.
Cleveland did not recover from the
shock for several months, and though he
has bachelors liking for pretty ladies
his friends say that he viii never marry.
One lady became so infatuated with him
that she proposed to him. He rejected
her advances, and it is said that she be-
came crazy and is now confined in an
asylum.

firing disposition, and most of his time
has been spent in his law library or in the
company Of bachelor friends.
His most frequent places of resort
were the City Club and the heightened
Buffalo Club on Delaware avenue. There
he was accustomed years ago to spend
most of his evenings playing cards and
telling or listening to stories told by a
coterie composed of the late Hon. Ham,
mon 5. Cutting, the late John Allen,
Vice President OF the Central and Hud-
son Railroad, and other unmarried gentle
men.
A friend of the Governor told the Jour
nal correspondent to-day romantic story
of how lady living near P0ughkeepsie
engaged in correspondence with the Gov
ernOr since he was elected Mayor, and
that tender feeling had sprung up be-
tween them. They have met but four

it was quite likely that the lady would be
married by Cleveland if elected President,

House parlors at his reception. The lady
is described as being a charming brunette,
about 80 years old, with pleasing man.
