Grant ia still ahead for the Chicago nomination. Nothing new about the Bills In Wmttaker's ears. It is understood that John Sherman Is opposed to Mrs. Jenks taking the stump for him. Tildes and Thurman is the latest Democratic combination to be projected into the political field. Leo ah and Eugene Hale are wrestling with the "trail lolal" of Illinois bat Logan ia roaring defiance. Women suffragists want to take part in the Chicago Republican Convention. Seventysix seats are required. Tnr. indications are that Indiana is getting sick: of Blaine. His followers are now called the "Mulligan Guards." V. P. Whekler has gone a lishing. He is afraid if he remains in Washington that he will be struck with paraljs's. Tee result in Illinois is just what might Lave been predicted any time in the last three months. Grant will have the State, the Blaine followers not even having a fighting chance. And cow it is surmised that the letters which have given the experts so much trouble in the Whitlaker cue were written by Whittaker himself in a disguised hand, at any rate the-sills remain unaccounted for. Senators Cokklikg and Cameron are determined that their followers shall stand up -to the rack, whether they like it or not. The revolt in Pennsylvania and New York is harmless to injure the third-term candidacy, as the protestants annoanoe their intention of voting for Blame, whose name, as appearances indicate now, will scarcely be presented to the Convention. So far, GraDt is first And the rest are nowhere. The primary elections held last Saturday in the several Wards of this city and in the several Townships of this County resulted in the choice of a solid delegation to the State Convention in favor of the nomination of Mr. Linder tor Governor. The 11,000 Democrats of Marion County have spoken as one man in favor of placing at the head of the Democratic ticket the man who in 1871 carTied their County for Congress, and took with him every man upon his ticket. They bslieve tbat what he did in 1371 he will do in 1SS0, should the Democracy of the State respond to the wishes of those who spoke in ach unequivocal tones on Saturday last. There is now no mistaking the action of the Chicago Republican Convention. Grant is so far ahead that his nomination may ai well be cod ceded; in act, it is regarded by the St. Louis Globe-Demeciat "as an absolute certainty." There will be 756 delegates in the Convention; 570 have already been chosen. It will require 379 to nominate; of these Grant is now credited with 321, Blaine 12G, Sherman 87, and Edmunds with 26. There are still seven Stales and two Territories yet to choose delegates 1SG in all of which, it is asserted by the G.-D., Grant is certain ot obtaining ninety; these, with those a' ready set down to the credit of the third term candidate', makes a sum total of 411 votes oa the first ballot, or thirty-two to tea more than are necessary to nominate. With tnch a Bhowing, Blaine, the Mulligan man; Sherman, of Mrs. Jenks notoriety, and Edmunds, the 8x7 perfidious pimp, can atford to fold np their booms and retire from the field. Grant and the Empire is to I e the Republican battle cry. Theebaw is to refgn, if he can get votes enough to begin on. Hon. Fraitk II crd, in his speech before the Democratic Convention of Ohio, said: The old watchwords and battle cries of the party must be heard again. Tue maintenance of the right and sovereignty of the States In- . violate ai the surest guarantee of the perpetuity of the Union ; no consolidation of po wer in the Federal Government; an Indestructible anion of ind-structlble States; opposition to monopolies; death to the National banking system; a currency as good as gold and silver and based upon them and issued under constitutional authority; the utmost liberty to the private citizen consistent with the public safety ; no sumptuary laws; the removal of embarasslng retriction upon trade; tariff for revenue only, with the ultimate view of free trade with all the world; the most for the man, tbeleastior the Government; the uplifting, the exalting of the Individual; the limiting, the rest ml u log of governmental power these were the battle cries of the Democratic party from 1798 ! They are hallowed by the immortal lip which uttered them I They were lncarcated in the administration of the Federal Government by .the Democratic party for nearly a eentary! They were hashed In the thunder of the civil strife, and stifled in its smoke; they were silenced In the despotism of the reconstruction era. Let them be revived In J8W0. Let them be shouted on every hillside

We like the roar of the Democratic guns. There wall be fighting all along the line in a few days. Democrats of Indiana, get ready.

The Cincinnati Gszstts his started a new boom. It is to put General Joieph E. Johneon on the tail of the Grant ticket. It says that 'no one thing would go so far to get the confidence of the Southern white party in General Grant's declarations of trust in their loyalty as the nomination with him of this distinguished Confederate soldier. No one would go so far to support their expectations of the time of complete reconciliation.and of the extinction of all sectional feeling, when the National and Confederate soldiers shall be put on the Bame fooling a? equally deserving their country's gratitude, and its care for those who were disabled in the service." Here is the biggest bid out Deacon Richard Smith himself favors pensioning Confederate soldiers. Now, if anybody down South had as much canfidencs in the Deacon as Democrats have in an average Louisiana liar, his bwm might be formidable. Ki.ECTioir day is beginning to have about the Bame effect on our colored brother as circus day. Richard Wells, another negro policeman, seems to have been riding quite as high a horse on election day as his colore 1 brother Thornton, whom we called attention to yesterday. He shed his blue clothes and brass buttons on election day, and arrayed himself in cltizsn'e dress in which dif guise he sallied forth, and put in the day in the interest of radicalism in the Four teenth Ward. What does Chief Travis mean by thus allowing hie policemen to do the dirty work of Republicanism? Does he tanker after a metropolitan police bill by State legislative enactment? The sort of antics cut by negro policemen at Tuesday's election will surely bring it. Tub Indianapolis Sentinel Is the only Democratic paper in the täte whlcn is unwilling to pledge itself to the support of the tiubernatonal nominee of tae täte Convention. Delphi Times. Such ta'k Is beneath the dignity ot our esteemed con tempo) a ry, the Delphi Times. The Indianapolis Sentinel does not regard it as courteous for its Democratic contemporaries to intimate tbat it will be disloyal to the action of the Democratic party in Convention, and it would be quite as proper for the Sentinel to fay that its esteemed contemporary, the Delphi Times, is the only Democratio paper in the State which is unwilling to pledge itself not to be guilty of a dishonorable action one that would subject it to the contempt of a'.l good Democrats. GENERAL NOTES. It is reported that Secretary Carl Schurz is engaged to a Miss Irish, of Washington. Bkwatok-S Ca mr box, Logan and Conkllng are now called "Grant's Syndicate of Senators." Governor McClellas's bobby is China, and his house on the top of Orange Mountain is made attractive by choice specimens from all parts of the world. A MAN of sanguine temperament is digging in a bank of earth it Hsgerstown, Ind., for a box containing SSO.ODO, which he claims to have reason to believe was buried there half a century ago. Dr. Olivfb Wendell. Holmes will "welcome the clergy" at the coming Unitarian festival in Boston, and the Rev. Dr. Bellows is expected to respond in behalf of the ministers and their wives. A wnrrs widower married a black widow a Cape Girardeau, Mo. He had four white child' ren, she had five black ones, and three yellow ones have been born to them since. The family presents a varied aspect. Professor W. H. Bxll, a leading colored man of Missouri, says the colored voters will demand the nomination of either Frederick Douglass or Senator Bruce lor Vice President by the Chicago Convention. BoOTOxPost: "flow would Colonel do for a delegate to Cincinnati ?" asked one Democrat of another yesterday. "He would do first rate to go to the depot to eee the others eff," was the prompt reply. In a vote of the Democrats of the Twentyfifth Senatorial DUtrictof Wisconsin, in Conventional Mjdison. Thursday, on Presidential preference, a decided majority was shown for Horatio Seymour, of New York. The Benton Review advises thus: "Nominate Hendricks for President. Neither powern, principalities, things present nor things to come, nor the colored exodus can carry the State against the Democratic ticket with Hendricks at the head." Of Captain Franls Sterling, of the missing Atlanta, it is stated that he was a near relative of Commander Sterling, who set .sail with his wife and children In the steamer City of Boston, from America for England, andwa" never heard of more. Mb. Morgan, of Alabama, has introduced in the Senate a bill providing that the President of the Senate shall submit to the Senate and House, when assembled to count the votes lor President and Vice President, all packages purporting to contain electoral votes. Four locomotives were stopped by a drift In a snow shed on the Union Pacific Railroad. Snow covered the roof completely, so that no air could get In and no smoke could get out. The engineers and fiemensoon became Insensible. Fifteen Chinamen went to the rescue, and were also overcome. All were nearly dead from suffocation when finally taken out. A horse biscuit is being manufactured in Russia to take the place of oats. It Is made of crushed oats and the flour of gray peas, mixed with herapseed oil and 6 Alt, and Is four Inches In diameter. A day's rations , weighs about four pounds, and is equal to ten pounds of oats. The horses like the biscuits when soaked In water, and If fed exclusively cn them, though they lo3e In flesh, are still fit for fatiguing work. Southern mocking birds well deserve the name. They Imitate not only the songs of other birds, but human whistlers as well. A lady of Macon, Oa., relates that her pet mocking bird often deceives a'l the Inmates of her house by its clever imitation of the postman's whistle. They go out to get the letters, and Und Jack on a spray near the fence, blowing his whistle and looking entirely innocent of any Invention to hoax the family. An old letter, in which Senator Thomas H. Benton announced his marrfage to his friend, the late Judge Wash, of St. Louis, Is still preserved in the la tier's family. "Long b store the drowsy and heedless post-boy shall transport to you this scrawl," writes young Benton "your trie nd Benedict will cease to belong to the order of bachelors. Time, which puts an end to everything, has now put an end to my endless courtship, and In the month of Mayl

To-morrow a Democratic Convention will be held In Wisconsin, and Republican Conventions In Florida, Michigan and West Virginia. The middle of each week will be given up to Conventions for some weeks jet. ' . - The Richmond (Va.) stale has discovered tnat Colonel A. D. Straight, who engineered the famous tunnel which let 109 Union prisoners out of LIbby Prison, is broadcasting a lecture of his on the subject through Indiana as bait for the Republican Gubernatorial nomination. The Danville (III.) Post thinks that William A. Morrison, ol Illinois, "Is one ot the ablest, purest and boldest members of Congress, and that. If nominated Tor the Presidency, he can command all of the German vote of the West, and poll more votes in the United States than any other man." The Cincinnati Commercial says: "If Mr. Wasaburne persists In sawing between himself and the tree by a conspicuous adherence to Grant, he will be picked up with a broken back and chucked into the Hospital about the 3d of June, when be might have been riding on the highest seat In the band wagon." Ex-President Woousiy, of Yale College, writes: "I should regard the nomination to a third term in itself to be highly undesirable, and that to break through an old habit of three generations for which the best reasons exist, without a most Imperious necessity, would be very unwise, and would deservedly expose these who would set it aside to defeat." Tnisis what ex-President Grant said in his annual message to Congress, December 5, 1S75: "With the present term of Congress my ofliclal llle terminates. It is not probable that public affairs will ever again receive attention from me further than as a citizen of the Republic, always taking a deep interest In the honor, integrity and prosperity of the whole land." Thk Chicago Tribune has advices from Indiana that there is a decided preference In Republican circles for the nomination of Congressman Orth for Governor, as a vindication of tbat gentleman from the aspersions on his character by Springer's Committee, and as a repartition of the injury done him four years ao in taking his name off the Republican State ticket. Mrs. Coventry Patmore has Just died. She was the second "Angel in the house," celebrated by the poet of whom Mr. Ruskin has written: "You cannot read him to often or too carefully ; as far as I know he is trie only living poet who always strengthens and purifies; the others sometimes darken, and nearly always depress and discourage, the Imagination they deeply seize."

Foreign Grain Cropn. New York Commercial Bulletin. The following are the latest mail adviees relating to the grain crops in foreign countries: FRANCE. The weather during the past se'nnlght has ben very favorable lor all trie cereai crops. Advices to band this ee'nnlgbt bearing upon the agricultural position are, however, of a somewhat less satisfactory nature. The eastern and southeastern departments do not appear to have been so well favored as last season. In the central, western and northwestern provinces loud complaints are heard of the loss of plant, and many fields have had tobe re ploughed In those region for sowing anew. Tlie south western, northern and nor Uieastern divisions appear up to the present to reckon upon a lair average crop. BELGIUM. The weather had of late been very fine and exceptionally favorable for the forthcoming cereal ciopi. At Antwerp very lttle chanw had t aken place In the corn market, the position ol values remaining about tlie same aa last week. HOLLAND. The weather had bten spring-like in character, and very favorable to ibe development ofthe young cereal plants. The colza crop Is In a satisfactory condition, the present weather being ail that could be desired. ITALY. The grain fields throughout the Italian Peninsula are in splendid condition, and everything gives promise of abundant crops. HUNGARY. At the opening of the week the weather was rather freth and unsettled, but subsequently a warmer perlol set In, the temperature being almost at summer range; a circumstance that might Inspire some uneasiness were It not known from experience that a southerly wind current is almost generally the precursor of rain, which would re-establish a normal equilibrium of temperature. Spring sowing has been pretty nearly completed, and everywhere tlie barley and oats are com in up well. The autumn sown crops are equally in fine condition, more especially the eany cultivated fields. GERMANY. Under the Influence of southerly winds the temperature bas risen materially, and warm rain showers had laiieu at Intervals, much to the gratification of agriculturists. At Berlin business in wheat on the pot had been almost at a standstill, but In forward delivery large speculative operations had taken place, which was the means of investing the market with a greater degree of firmness. At Stettin the corn market was dull In character, but an Improvement took p. ace In wheat prices toward the closs of the week. At Danzig wheat opened firm In tone, but closed easier uu2er lower American au vices. SPAIN. Advice from Santander agree in representing the Situation of the cereat crops us excellent. RO UM AS I A, According to an advice from Galatz, of the 15lh Inst., the weather was very dry and moisture much required. In the corn market trade was slow for all articles. RUSSIA. It is reported from Wasa, In Finland, that the winter wheat crop is much compromised, as the small quantity of snow enveloping the fields had prematurely melted In the spring, and the subsequent occurrence of night frosts had convened the fields into veritable plains of ice, which bad consequently acted most detrimentally upon the young plant. ALGERIA. We gather from an advice from Oran, of the 11th lust., that the weather had been very propitious lor the young cereal. Intelligent Party Harmony. Nashville American. In the selection of Democratic delegates throughout the United Suites a most catholic harmony and determinalion to go untrammelled, to consider the field and make the best selection for the coming canvass, is almost everywhere manifested. A party which meets in council in tbat spirit, determined to hear all Bides and to chcoee with one view, will not err. Some fearful persons have apprehended Democratio divisions and wraDglicg. It is majorities, parties in power, and not those in a minority and out of power, indulge in the luxnry of internal dissensions carried to disastrous extent In minorities there must be differences of opinion, carried to a certain extent, or the best policy will never be evolved. Discussion and the fullest light must be had in order that the party may act understanding. The party knows where its dangers are, and, enlightened, there is now no danger that it will err. . . . The Ketort Sarcastic. SL Louis Post-Dispatch. Great pains have been taken by the friends of Charles De Young, the murdered editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, to show that, while deficient in nearly all the reputable qualities, he was exceptional in bis devotion to his aged mother. At his funeral some demonstrative friend displayed a pillow of flowers bearing the inscription in violets, Died for His Mother." In anticipation of young Kalloch's execution, a floral pillow is being gotten np, which will bear the in scription, "Hanged for His Father."'

IIEND KICKS IN TUE EIST.

Earnest Sapport in Pennsylvania, New York and New England. Why Indiana' - "Favorite Bon" Strongest Candidate. is the Interview With Mr J. II. Iteall, of New Tork, by a Representative of the Sentinel A Powerful Argument. Niw Yore, Slay 5 Since the adjourn ment of the Syracuse Convention, politics in this city have been in a quiescent state. Both branches of the Democratic party are resting upon their oars, and since Senator Jacobs' memorable speech in the Senate, de fining his position with reference to Mr. Til den, the elements have been lees discordant. A third Convention, to Bend an Indepen dent delegation to Cincinnati, has been talked of, but it is not believed that any action will be taken in this direction. It ia not improbable that the party in this State will yet be united, at least before the close of the Cincinnati Convention. I find a strong undercurrent here in favor of the nomination of Thomas A. Hendricks. His friends have been working quietly but effectively for him, and the fact that his claims bae not been vigorously pushed before the public gives him a strong position. Many of the most careful observers of Tolitical currents consider that Mr. Hendricks chances for the nomination are second to none. One of Mr. Hendricks' warmest supporters, In this city, is Mr. J. H. Real I, formerly of Philadelphia, whom I have just interviewed with the following re sult: "Can you inform me, Mr. Reall, as to what is bemg done, in this city, toward the norm nation of Mr. Hendricks?" "Well." Mr. Reall replied, "his friends believe that he should be nominated, and are doiDg what they can to that end." "How many votes do you claim for him on the first ballot?" "We don't waste our time in that sort of speculation. It is folly for any one to say that any particular candidate will receive a certain number of votes, because no man at this hour can form any reasonable opinion of how the Convention will stand toward any one. Indiana will give her solid vote for Mr. Hendricks from first to last. Tbat State is most enthusiastic for him, and bas bad an organization of the most effective kind la his interest for many months." "Where else does Mr. Hendricks' strength lie?' "In Pennsylvania he bas hosts of friends. In 1S76 Mr. Hendricks was by all odds the favorite of the Lancaster Convention, which elected the delegates ti St. Louis, who, under the workicg of the unit rule, gave their complimentary vote to General Hancock, and Mr. Tilden's early nomination prevented its going into the natural channel. Mr. iienancks has a strong following in New York, Connecticut, and the other Eastern States, as I have ascer tained by personal intercourse with repre sentative Democrats. He is the natural choice of the West, and no man would be more acceptable to the South" "What do you think of the proposition to nominate Seymour and Hendricks?" "Well. I suppose it is meant in kindnets. but I am in a position to say that Mr. Sey mour can not be a candidate, and that Mr. Hendricks will not accept a second place with any one." "What are Mr. HendrickB' claims?" "He does not assert any that I am aware of. I am for him, es I have been for many year, and as I shall continue to be, because I believe in the beet man. If nominated and elected, his administration would give the country peace and rest, which are what her producing and commercial interests need. We want absolute quiet now, that we may recuperate our wasted energies and prolong the seat on ot prosperity upon which we have just entered. We have had enough of unrest and depression." "Please state then, Mr. Reall, the argument you make in favor of Mr. Hendricks' nomination." "It would take too much of your time and mine to do that in detail, but I will outline It to you as briefly as possible. I came away from the St. Louis Convention in 1876 impressed with the fact that Mr. Hendricks should be the candidate of the party in 1SS0, and all my experience and observation since have strengthened this conviction. It will be remembered, tbat next to Mr. Tilden, Mr. Hendricks was the strongest candidate at St. Loui?, and the unanimous vote he received for the second Discs on the ticket has not been forgotten. For the latter place he was not a candidate, and only after the most earnest and continued solicitation did ho accept, and then only to save his party. Those who eaw how faithfully and earnestly the men of Indiana supported Mr. Hendricks at St. Louis, witnessed a devotion almost unparalleled In political affairs. Long before this Convention, the laic Hon. M. C. Kerr, of Indiana, who was Speaker of the National House of Representatives at the time, wrote me, in reply to a newspaper letter I had published, suggesting SimuslJ. Tilden for President and M. C. Kerr for Vice President; tbat he, with bis brother Democrats, 'would unite in favor of Indiana's favorite son, Thomas A. Hendricks!' and they did. When, a year after the SL Louis Convention, I visited Indianapolis, and attended the Democratic State Convention and eaw 1,100 of Indiana's representative Democrats, comprising, judges, legislators, merchants, farmers and journalists, acting as delegates the finest body of men it has ever been my privilege to see I realized from whence this well of affection sprung. The ovation which Mr. Hendricks received from this vast assemblage, when he took the chair to preside, has never been surpassed in earnestness by any tendered to man. In his own State, amongst his own people, Thomas A. Hendricks is loved and respected by all. He occupies a position there, and in the West, similar to that of our own Horatio Seymour, the foremost citizen of the country. None stand higher with people of all parties than Mr. Hendricks, and none so well with the masses of the party to which he belongs. His worth is known and appre ciated. His ability and integrity are disputed by none. His purity of life and hia qualities as a statesman of the true Democratic stamp need no assertion. In thorough sympathy with our people, none have a stronger following. If the claims of any man for the nomination are influenced by the frauds perpetrated against the successful candidates in 1S76, those of Thomas A. Hendricks are second to none. "But there are other considerations to be weighed in this matter. The next President of the United States will be a Western man; there is no way of evading this fact. As between candidates representing different sections, interest, not politics, will decide the contest If cur party is wise, a Democrat will be elected. Between two Western men we can win with Hendricks es our candidate, and with him we can defeat arjy candidate the Republicans may name. Let them name the only Western candidate and we are beaten before we enter the field. Let both candidates be from the East, and a third party man will be nominated from the Wis', who will defeat both. This, to an Eastern man, might seem a strong exertion, but the West Is an empire of itself, and its ally is the South. They are the great producing sections; Ihe well-spring and fountain of the Nation's wealth and prosperity. All we have and all we are as nation depends now on what they produce in the

field. They furnish the East its commerce with the outside world, part ct its food, and are the markets for our manu I act urea. "In 1878 LheWestern States produced $721. 731.2U8 worth of produce; the Southern Srates. $135 055,050; tae . Middle States, $312 S'JO.801, and the Eastern States, $77,881,531. Over 8G per cent, of our exports were of agricultural products, all of which, except the butter and cheese produced In New York, came from the West and South, besides furnishing the Middle and Etstern States with a large part cf their food and most of their clothes. The good State of New York produces but half the wheat she consumes. Bountiful crops, the result of intelligent farming and earnest labor, blessed with nature's favor, brought about the return of prosperity and specie payments, not the policy of man. The active business, which, since last fall, has touched every spring of industry like a magician's wand, received its impetus from the field. The West and South have been the prime factors . in this glorious revival of trade and industry. The population of the West and South, too, is greater than that of the East "The producers of this wealth, the agriculturists, who comprüe over one-halt our entire population, must be confidered in this and in all future political contests. They have too long Buffered others to think and act for them. Now they will be found acting and thinking for themselves, and they will demand such consideration and euch legislation as they are so well entitled to. The time has gone by when their petitions to Corgress may be laughed at and when legislation may be entirely in the interest ot classes, to their detriment They are tired of being taxed to protect special interests. The next Preu dent must be a man known to be in sympathy with the tillers of the Foil. Such a man is Thomss A. Hendricks. Reared in an agricultural State; its Governor and United States Senator; and in all spheres of life commingling with them, he knows their wants, and has already put himself on record as their friend; no man in the conntry is nearer to them to day, neither is any nearer to the hearts of the people ncr stronger In the affections of the Democratic party. Let the Convention at Cincinnati nominate him, and be will be elected by such a majority as will leave no question of its strength. The name of Thomas A. Hendricks is ona upon which all factions can unite, and by which all dissensions in the party will be healed." "What States would Mr. Hendricks carry ?' "All that any Democrat could, and more than any Republican. I havn't got time to speculate on electoral votes." "In your opinion, can any Democrat carry Pennsylvania?" "Yes, Mr. Hendricks can. Whilst there Is a standing Republican majority there staring our friends in the face, we have carried both the State and city within the last four years. It will be remembered that Philadelphia is the Republican stronghold. Oar opponents have a natural majority tbere of Bome 18,000 votes, which is not surprising, considering that they have 7,000 colored voters, and as many more Republican officeholders, distributed between the navy yard, postoffice, police and different departments of the city government in addition to which, have for many years been practiced the grossest election frauds that any locality has ever been dipgraced with. In face of this, however, we elected a Democratic Sheriff in 187;. a Democratic Comptroller of the city in 1877.

and a District Attorney in 1879 Since 1876 we have elected tbere a Democratic Judge of the Supreme Court of the Srate and a Democratic Auditor General of the State. Pennsylvania is closely allied to the West, geographically, commercially and industrially; and as her population is mainly compos ad of artisans and agriculturists, Mr. Hendricks would receive their support because of bis close relationship with these interests. The union of the party brought about at the State Convention this week augurs well for tb success cf the Democracy in the Keystone State. Both Messrs. Wallace and Randall are pure Democrats, and the men whom they represent have been made strong by adversity. It is a mistake to assume that Mr. Wallace is Eolely for General Hancock, and that Mr. Randall occupies a similar position with rrgird to Mr. Tilden. They will both be found Iree to support the best man for the party at Cincinnati. Hon. William L. Scott, the railroad king and banker of Erie, who is set down by the newspapers as a Tilden man, was one of the first to oppose Mr. Tildon'a renomination. He told me as early as 1S77 tbat he should not favor that course. Speaking cf Mr. Tilden leads me to say, from conversations I have had with bis close friends, that be will not be pushed et Cincinnati. They protest against the abuse tbat bas been heaped upon him, and tbey can not be blamed for this, but I can not find that their interest in him extends further. As to General Hancock, I know, fioai interviews with his friends in Pennsylvania, that the movement in his favor lacks substance. He can not receive more than a complimentary vote. His warmest admirers freely acknowledge that it would be a mistake to nominate a military man on the Democratic ticket I was in Connecticut a few dajs ago, and had a pleasant talk with the able editor of the Hartford Times, who is supposed to baa representative of Mr. Tilden. I found him a lit representative of the Connecticut Democracy not prfjudiced in favor of aDy candidate, but ready to support the nomination of the man most enl'able. lie published the art e'e iu 2803, which was so largely copied by the press of the country, bnngiDg out the name of James Buchanan for President, who was then Minister to England." . This closed an interview with a gentleman who has the couregs of .his convictions. Mr. Reall was the founder of tne Pniladelphla Produce Exchange, organizer of the International Dairy Fair Association, andot the American Agricultural Association, both leading National bodies of great importance, and is considered one of the best organizers in this country. He has knowledge of men, is an indefatigable worker, and is the right man to champion a good cause. A bad one he never touches. Mr, Reall is probably as well known to the farmers and dairymen of the United Slates as any other man, having always championed ttelr interests. He has always taken a deep and thoughtful interest in politics, and keeps himself aa courant of the political situation, but has never held office. Formerly a resided of Pennsylvania, where, two years ago, be received several votes for an important State office at the Stale Convention, he keeps himself well posted on the politics of that State. In New York he has abstained from identifying hirxself with either faction, and hopes to eee the time when harmony will be restored and a united front precentc J. Mr. Reall bas never been anything else but a Democrat. In 1S76 he was President of the celebrated West Phila delphia Democratic Association, which was one of the most active organizations for Tilden and Hendricks in the country. Mr. Keall avoids the usual course of decrying other candidates in his advocacy of Mr. Hendricks, wisely acting on the theory that his favorite's chances do not need It. W. E. D.
