Potter, of Kast Sagioaw, und J. D. Hayos, of Detroit, are altérnate.-. llow eorrectly did Iloratio Scyuiour read the t-ÍK'1 of thc times whon ho said : " If it comes to a choice betwoen a funeral and a nouiiuation, 1 would prefer thc funeral." Old a.s the New York war uorso is, he is cvidently not at all childish, and not to be caught by any of the wary traps set for liini. He liad a numination once and kimws tho f'ull signifioance of it. Whon the Shoc-wac-cae-mettes first cama out viotorious, beating thc famed eaBtorn erews, Michigan, almoat went wild. Now the Ilillsdale boys have been "soooping' ' out everytliing in their pnth fora year or two, but they don't got half the attention. Is it possible that Michigan, tbc land of' lakes, is losiog her interest in :uU:itio t porta? We hope not? The lotter of tho sago of Uraminflira park.decliuing tho uouiination for the l'rcsidenoy on (he Dcinoeratic ticket bcfore it wa teuderrd him, was a document thoroughly eharacteristie of the individual who wrote it. It waa full of " righteous " indignation ovor thc inauguration of President Hayos, but it neither deelincd the nomination or aocepted it. It waa a slippcry document, to be construed in mauy differoot ways. The democratie conference at Cincinnati, organized last Tucsday, by elccting Judge Hoadlcy, of Cincinnati, as temperar? president, and V. O. Pnnee, of Boston, as seeretary. Kvery allusion to the great declincr, Sir Samuel, of Cipper Alley, was received with the wildest enthusiasm, whioh shows what the delesatcs would Iikc to do, f they only had sufficient courage. But they lack stamina and backbone as inuch as they do fixedness of purpose. lts anything to beat Grarfield now. Just out of mere curiosity somutimc ask a democrat what his principios are, and seo it you can get any rcply. The faot is the party have had all tho principios they ever possesscd dug out from under thein and buried by the republican party. Thcrc isn't a single idea for which the party fouL'ht for so mauy years that is cnibodied in a live issue to-day. They have no principies excopt that etcrnal greed for spoils, and that is all that keeps them together. But a solid south will be met by a solid north, and thoy will be once again disappointcd. Tho colorod delégales íioiu the south at thc lato Chicago eonvention, wcro the subject of much suspicion, and a great deal was said respecting their selling out to this or that candidato, but the Chicago Tribune has a good word for them, as follows : ¦¦ Murh luis Ixfii wliiMTcd HtKiut Iliosapixaed ulnerablllty oXtbeiouthorn colorea uelhrnlü.

At one time it lookod as though the Cineinnati eonvention would be obligod toproeee.l without tho usual fonnality of prayer in thc opening exerois:s. Thc list of Cincinnati preMhers wore gone through with and not a domoorat to bo found among tlitin, and tho managers utterly refused to havo a ropublican ask divine guidance for theiu, for foar he might in:ikc Hme converts among the more civilizcd delegates. Fiually, ft(T serious delay, and ttending nut scareh warrant in cvery lirectimi to kscertain il' any of thc suburbs contained a curiosity óf the kind, the jiastor of a "leeile (crinan ehureli" was fouud, who wouldu't deny belonging to that party, and he diil the job for them. As far as tho prayer was concerned they didn't care very much, but it wan an old eustom adopted by BOme religiously inelimd delegates years ago, and you know deuiocrats cling to moss eovcred custoins. Tho New York Independent the leading semi-religiou-f newnpaper of this nation and the Chicago Advance the leading represent itivo of Co!i;,'ri'is':itimi:ilisui in the west, are highly gratilicd at tho nominatiou of (iarücld, and prediet his olcction. The Indepeudent t, in a doobte leaded leader : " Victory: Jamos A. (arfield of Ulno, is the repnblicad cainlidate for President, and we are glad. Tho iuaehineH are broken. The dictators are beaten. Tho glorious old republican party rofuses to be bartered away. Those who bully and those who buy retire discoiulited, and a Uue man roccives the nomination, who made no efïbrt for it, whoso name had not boen uientioned, but whoso jiro eminent ability neods no issertion.
