Xo Chinese in oars say the Demo crats. Flood the country with Chinese my the Republicans. It begins to dawn upo:i the public iatcHigeace that the commi«* ; oa for the rvvbiea of the tariff is a mere sham: tWt its report was cut and dried in advance: and that the pre teaeeof taking test : m<>ny is only a harmless delusion. There is wailing and gnashing of teeth among the Republican Ih«wv ia thb city. They have failed to fc. ment dissessions in the ratiKs of the Democratic par y in this county, and their vexation at their failure is un concealed. Aa iadigaaa: Republican wants to know whether the naiues of the Dele gates aad Alternates to be selected i y the b oas ts of the dark-lantern caucus to-night will be submitted to the rank aad Hb of the party for rati float i.*s. We don't know. They may he mere ly aa a matter of form, but ask the With a great flourish of trumpets tW Republican* claimed they carried thb county at the county election a year and a half ago. Thev held the ight eras male upon the sheriffal.y aad that in electing their man they shewed they went in the majority in the county. But they are afraid to werk in the lead. That position of honor they yielded to tip fearless Democracy and called their conven tien to meet after that or the Demo crats. The Democracy is always found at the front. The littl - dsrk-laatcrn caucus com posed of the few Republican bosses la thb city will meet to-night "to ■elect delegates and alternates to at tend the county Republican conven tion." We learn that our suggestion that the names of these delegates and alternates be submitted to a primary meeting of their party, will be car ried cat. Although no opposition to the cut and dried delegate ticket will be made it will be in accordance with the eternal fitness of things to give the few spirille* Re] ublicaus in the city an opportunity to use their fabef* upon the names. A general order was issuel from the Post Office Department on the 2s>th lastaat, directing a daily exchange of international mr.!!s between the 8t Paul A Breckenruke.

It b left with the convention to bring about thb sta'e of atfairs. We Wve no hesitancy in saying it will not dis appoint the highest expectation* formed concerning its action. NOMINATION OF LEGISLA TIVE CANDIDATES. The Democratic Convention whieh meets to-day will be faced with a mat ter which is somewhat embarrassing. We refer to the nomination of candi dates for t e Council and House of of Representative* for the next Leg islative Assembly. It will be re uietuiiertd that a rider was attached to the Executive, Legislative and Ju dicial appropriation bill which passed the bte session of Congrea*.and which provided that the Governor. Chief Justice Wade. President of the last Council.and Speaker of the last House of Representatives of the Territorial Legislative Assembly, should consti tute a board with full power to appor tion the memoers of the next Legis lative A—eiuuly. and perform other spevideci duties. We are not advised whether the Board hat discharged it» duties or not. It may be the gentle men named . ave not received official notification of their appointment. At all event* it seems the Convention will have no knowledge of the num ber of Legislative officers to which thb couaty will be entitled under the n.-w apportionment. Hence, what* ever action it may take in the matter cannot be arbitrary. There are. though, three ways in which the difficulty may be met. First, the conveution can adjourn without making any nominations of the county b entitled shall be known. Second, the convention may by bal'ot or otherwise designate its choice of .sufficient number of can didates—say five or six—and author ize ttie Central L'oruiuitie to place those upon the li. ket who have te eeived the highest numlwr of vote* east: or third, it uiay leave the whole matter of tbeir selection to the Central Comittee after the apportion ment shall lure been made. There may be other means by wliicb the matter may be satisfactorily met. but the conveution should not adjourn without making some prevision whereby the proper number of can didates for Legislative honor* may be placed upon the ticket. CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. The platform adopted yesterday by the California Republicans is a mas ter production of unmeaning gener alities and glariug incot.sbtencics. It propose* to catch the German vote by the e »forcement of a Sunday .aw. It denounces subsidies to railroads in the face of the fact the £tate ewe* its present importance and prosperity to a subsidized railr isd. It demands the restoration to the public domain a »f forfeited Uni grant in the face of i funller * 11141 * Republican Uongrmn tailed to declare them for feited. It raise the tamiliar cry of civil service reform, when the world know* the Republican party ho* kicked Civil Service Reform to the dog* long ago. It congratulates \ h * on the settlement of the Chinese question by the passage of ^ the restriction b 11. when every mem ber of the convention know* the question b not «ettied. and that Con gre*« adjourned with a bill in the baud* oi a Senate committee, provid ing tor the aiueudineut of tue law.
