Should Tilden Be Nominated.

Interview with Charles A. Dana
''Who was right about TildeR, you or those
who insisted he meant to have the nomination"
Il was right and they were wrong"
''How is he"
HE is very well for him, believe, though
have not seen him for some time
''Thereis no doubt that his nomination would
please thousands of Democrats. Do you oppose
it. and if so, why"
mo, do not oppose it 1 have never opposed
it. L have said that he would not take it, but it
is surprising how the people in all parts of the
country are insisting upon the old ticket. This
feeling has been much strengthened by the
rumpus about the tariff. Everybody feels that
if Mr.. Tilden could be nominated, the tariff bHsi
ness would be pushed by such nomination
into the obscnrity proper to theerescal abstrac-
lions. AS the case now stands, nothing seems
to me more probable than that the Democratic
convention Will nominate Mr.. Tilden and wait
for his reply before proceeding any further"

BRITISH POLITICS.

Gladstone Chides the Irish Party and De-
clines to Order the Maamtrasna Inquiry.
LONDON, Oct. 2S--In the Commons, Mr. Glad
stone spoke in strong disapprobation OF the Irish
members for their structures on Earl Spencer,
Lord Lieutenant Of Ireland. If the charges they
make could be proved Mr. Gladstone said, moth
ing less than impeachment of his Lordshp was
necessary. The Irish members interrupted
Mr.. Gladstone constantly during his
speech, and he expressed his regret
that they did not conduct their operations with
more prudence and right feeling. In the course
of his remarks he expressed the hope that the
House would vote against ordering an inquiry
into the Maamtrasna cases. In consequence, the
Irish party has determined to raise the home
rule question before the close Of the debate on
the address in reply to the speech from the
throne.
In the Commons, tonight, a vote was taken
upon the amendment to the address to the Queen
offered by Timothy Harrington, Home rule mem
Der for Westmeath, that the administration of
the laws in Ireland was unsatisfactory. and that
inquiry into the Maamstrana murder trials would
lead to greater contentment among the people.
The amendment was rejected-4l in favor to

amendment was the manner in which the Min
