An ancient Democrat who has been sojourning at the -North: for some months, was almost over whelmed with-reproach and denun ciation when *he gave his over zealous friends, as the result of. his observations, that Tilden wouldnot be in tile contest, ari that the sen timental, scheme of nominating him the sentimental scheme of nomii nating himwilly. villy would have no support among the practical poli iticians and people of the 'North, and would be an offense to Mr. Til den and his friends, as suggesting a:doubt of his sincerity and of:the truth of his' physical inability 'to fulfill the duties' of the,)positioni either 'of .candidate: or Pesiddlt elect. The delegate elections:iniNew York show that the Democrats s'hf fragans of that great State are more sagacious and practical' than' ouirs Assuming that Mr. Tilden will be brought beforb ' the : Convention, they have entered zealously and activly into 'the canvass :for-a sub stitute for' Mr. 'Tilden on the pres4i dential ticket. In' tfht "anvass the issue has been'dlscussed and de termined with principal referenoe to Mr. Tilden's preferences:' Inr'some of the elections one of:'the caidi lates' has been named as thie alt nate of Mr. Tilden. Ti1ese'ioteA were given by suffragans who'hiad not read Mr. Tilden's letter of em pbhatic and irreversible 'declinatio . But in all the elections the issue in distinctly made betwven two' disin guished Democratic chieftains. Oine of these is assumed to le indorred and preferred by Mr. Tilden.. This is Mr. Flower. The opposing can= didate is Gov. Cleveland.: The re suits, as far as heard, from, appear to be.largely in favor of Mr; Flow= er. He is regarded as a.pupil and protege of. Tilden, has long enjoy ed his perfect confidence, ;and has proved a worthy successor, in the manipulation of the Democratic ma chinery in that great State.. He is thoroughly trained in the methods of the sage of Gramercy Park. A square built, self-raised man, of in doMnitabls energy, boundless liber ality and hospitality, while consis tent and unvarying in his Democra y., Flower has stronger claims than any of the other claimants of the Tilden succession. It looks as if he will sweep the great State which holds the key of the Demo cratic jposition in its struggle for the Presidency. If it. does, what folly in the Democratie ,chiefs in in the "outlying provinces" io sug gest any other. cindidate& ; as we.as done by our our bigmorqin jou~r - ais in their infatatted.,edi oriale of yesterday, in which ithe :.,D. ~eri sists in the 'offensiie sentimental folly of keeping Mr. Tilden': dead or aliyp, and; tal pfAitypPica vune in its . atterpt, ts qgeaurrect Hancock, whose obitufary' wa''~ il roclaimed aril piblislied i'enr4 , ' ago. Now, e he less sentiinen Democrata of NewY rk persist in demanding and "xiotirhg 'alive aib didrate. And tlier nominee must be accopted by the other States, wheth er 1}e be Cleveland .o Flower,',ari of the two Flower appeara to,hJ4 livelier at the - present writing. -[City Item. MR.
