w.smvcToN June 1O.-Tbe attitude of the lnde-
nenaents does not excite that apprehension among
Republican leaders which 1t was at first thousht
by Democrats it would. Indeed, there are few
people now who think that the movement will ex-
tend beyond certain portions of Massachusetts, the
larger cities principally, and the city OF
Even there it is confidently predicted it will die

and their nominations made, it is thought one VIII
find the "bolt,rsn back within the folds OF the
Republican party. The disaffecton is not beheVeu
to have spread among the rauk and hie oi inc
party On the contrary, there is every reason lor
believing that il is confined to a small number OF
self-styled leaders"
MASSACHUSETTS RECKoNED AS SAFE.
Especially true is this with reference to Massa-
chusetts There" prominent New-Englander
said to-day the masses are accustomed TO be
guided by few, often well-meaning, men.
1t would be folly, however, to suppose
that their influence extended so far as
TO be able to carry any considerable numbers of
voters over to the Democratic party. The good
sense of the people will assert ITSELF They are not
going to assist i'll placing the Democrats in power
il they stop to reflect that that party is committed
to a reduction of the present tariff rates whether
under the name of tariff for revenue only or
tariff for revenue with incidental protection
Would the Massachusetts, people, welded as
they to a protective policy, under whch
they prospered for twenty years and more, commit
folly and bring ruin upon themselves by putting
the pronounced enemies to their interests in piwerf
II is not likely"
SENATOR FRYE's CHEERFUL VIEWS.
Republican Senators and Congressman continue
to express their approval of the ticket chosen. Not
one discordant voice is raised against it. Senator
FRYE said to-day: "Of course Blaine is strong
in Name but so is Logan The latter is very pop
ular there. As to Massachusetts,, l have no
fear Blaine will carry the State by 10000 ma
iority Tho Independents may growl at trst but
they will come around after little while. Massa-
chusetts Independents are nearly all Democrats 1t
Is not that State which have to look out for,
but New-York New-York is the battle ground
The enthusiasm which Blaine will will carry
him through He will carry Ohio In October by
rousing majority, and that, together with the
enthusiasm his canvass will excite, VIII
save New-York. He will carry the whole of New
England have no fear to the result in any of
the New-England States. Blaine is as strong in
New-YOrk as any man the party could have noml-
mated, and ho is stronger than Others outside Of
New. York. Heis the choice of the Republicans OF
the Republican States"
Senator Pike felt no doubt as to Blaines ability
rather a narrow ono.
THE TICKET INyINCIBLE
Congressman Hiscock said If the making of
ticket had been left to referees and they had
searched the country over, they could not have
pitched upon any other two who would have
been so strong as Blaine and Logan. The ticket is
invincible."
Judge Poland tersely put it: 'As the nominee of
the party is Blaine, he will secure the usual num-
- I,,ob ale ~
One of Senator Mahone's most influential lieuten-
ants Colonel Brady, of Virginia, Is of the opinion
that his State by proper efforts be carried Tor
the Republican party. He does not entertain the
least doubt but that Malone will do everything IN
his power to support the ticket.
Colonel George Bliss, of New-l ork, remarked III the
SprluQer Committee room to-day as regards the at
titude of the New-York City press: The Times
will exert great influence. II has been hudlng
fault with everything and every body 1or some the
and has become common scoId'
I. NOT so WEAK AFTER ALI.
Democratic Congressmen, after reflection, have
generally reached the conclusion that the Repub-
Gcan ticket and platform are not weak after all.
Mr.. Randall aud Democrats who agree with him
undoubtedly fear disastrous defeat, If the dom
inant faction of their party is permitted to control
the platform. Mr.. Randall to-day said: The
Rentblican platform is Kaleidoscope 1t contains
somethinc which will meet with favor i'll every
county in the commonwealth OF Pennsylvanla ana
also in every county OF every other conohWeaitn' m
that nobody will agree to anything 1t contains
The tariff plank Mr.. Randall however; regards
as especially strong. SO does General Warner OF
Ohio. but he does not like the platform as whole
HThe convention that adopted such platform
should have nominated General Butter In order 10
be consistent" was his comment.
CARIsLE's CAUTIOUS EXPRESSION.
Sneaker Carlisle guardedly said: Both the
platform and the ticket possess elements of weak
pese, as well as of strength. l think we can
defeat that ticket if we could defeat any," From
the last sentence it might perhaps fairly be in
ferred that Mr.. Carlisle does not feel confident OF
Democratic success.
