"j ! TIIiOBNa VINDICATION. Mr. Manton Marble, former editor of the New York World, and a very special friend of Mr. Tilden, has written a long and interesting letter to the New York Sun in defence of bis chief. It is understood that the arguments and facts are Mr. Tilden's, although the scribe is Mr. Marble. TheTdefence' will possibly create a good deal of disoussion. It is not improbable that it may lead to angry words. We will" not Undertake to ay that Mr. Tilden's defence is com plete, but we may -say that it is ex tremely plausible, and is fortified by telegrams that show him to have been not only prompt " but firm and determined in the maintenance of l.u rJcrhta. The following are some a aw j of the telegrams: To the argument of haste Mr. Tilden re plied: ' " J . , "There is time enough. It is a month before the count. It had best be used, all of it, in making the people and their agents fully acquainted with their riguis ana au ties." 1 To the statement that the Senate commit lee would not delay ; for this to present their bill, with the unanimous approval of ' its three Democratic members, to the Ile publican Senate, Mr. Tilden replied: "It is a panic of pacif actors. They will act in haste and repent at leisure." To Mr. Hewitt's representation of the danger of a cotlision of force with the Ex ecutive, Mr. Tilden replied: "Nevertheless, this action is too precipi tate. The fears of collision are exaggera ted And why surrender now? , You can always surrender. That is all you have to du after being beaten. , Why surrender be- fore the battle, for fear of having to surren der after the battle is over? J "VVith both the vital points left at loose ends you cannot succeed. You cannot '. afford to concede, and you can exact (1) the; 'selection of good men to compose the tri- bunal, which is the controlling point, and (2) the nature of the function to be per formed by the tribunal, which is next in importance. 1 "Fix these two points good men, ex plicit powers and you might possibly get through. Leave them doubtful and it is happy-go-lucky the shake of a dice box." The scheme which Mr. Hewitt had brought contained in its first draft a pro vision by which six Judges were to be de scribed in the act, one of them then to be -ETtminated bv lot. To this Mr. Tilden's objection was peremptory. Said he: "I may lose the Presidency, but I will not raffle for it." ; ! The generally cautious Washing ton correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says that the defence will excite surprise in many quarters. He says of Mr. Tilden's course, which some how does not dovetail very well with the above telegrams: j "It is well known that' Mr.Tilden invited some of the leading Democrats to visit New York in November, 1876, on the eve of the meeting of Congress. They went there.ex pecting to find some plan of action either matured or prepared for consideration. To their astonishment Mr. Tilden had no defi , uite or indefinite proposition to offer, and no plan of any kind appeared to be formed in bis mind. ... j I 1 "He had a vague hope that Mr.Conkling, Gen. Butler, Mr. Drexel, the banker, and others, who from their position in the Re publican party, or their personal L relations with Gen. Grant, would, be able to exert , such an influence at Washington as to pre vent the consummation of the conspiracy iu Congress, s At that time he certainly did not suggest any mode of unifying Demo cratic action or confronting the Republican leaders with a settled - and positive pro gramme of policy which would draw the line distinctly between the two parties,and enable public sentiment to crystalize on one or the other." . i , silent. .1" !,''' UUUIIl tun this statement of his attitude and show that his views were expressed with a plainness of speech and clearness of purpose for which he has not received credit j in any Quarter, completely disproving thei charge that tbe Democrats in Congress were .obliged to act in ignorance of his plans or wishes, ilia suggestions are prompt, curt and to the point, and his instructions are marked by a decisiveness and fighting spirit that utterly dissipate the suspicion that he was timid in the assertion of his claims. If there was indecision! at this point, it is plain that the responsibility does not rest with Mr. Tilden. He had no parr in the Electoral Commission, and! did his best to make a straight-out fight for the Presidency." ' I The times wero extraordinary, and ... . i I tViPTft was rreat apprehension felt -mtk , , . that Grant would undertake to over throw the government. We all know the nreDarations he made for bull- . r dozing Congress; how he army and naval forces in and around Washington; how eager the extreme Radicals were to force an issue, and specially the gathered his to a resort to The j Times according to how averse the people, people Of the South,wero violence - and to arms. exactly states the case, : our recollection, when it says "Thft two nartiea were at sword's points. The people stepped in and demanded me diation, retrardless of Haies or j Tilden, and mediation was accorded. The respon sibility for the peaceful settlement rests on their shoulders, and theiif shoulders are hrnad ennnph to carrv it. As to the rest, Willi nia paru- We propose to go'to work and dis appoint the Press and papers of that, kidney. ' Let the Democrats arouse themselves for the struggle. Is.it not perfectly plain to every man with an idea above an oyster, that the Press-1 one of the extremest of Radical pa- pers and all other papers of the name school, care nothing about the South really only so far as it can' be used as an instrument to fasten Grant ism and its horrors upon the country? Is it not patent to all that such pa pers are watching the growth of new parties in the South in the hope that it will so split up the Democratic par ty as to restore the Radicals to pow er ? He is indeed a blind man who r r . : .... cannot see this. If you doubt this read the last para graph in the Press's editorial: "On the whole enough has transpired to nuzzle the Tilden . slate-makers over the coming Congressional elections. There is some nope mat xionn uarouna win, in xu vember, be well on tbe way of return to her old Republicanism and her strong Union ism, which, before the war, made her one of the most loyal of the Southern States." the defence Mr. Tilden may fight it out sans." How much influence will have upon Mr, Tilden's political fortunes in the future - we cannot un dertake to say. That he will have many strong backers in the North for the nomination in li $80, isj almost certain. We do not be ieve that the South, or any considerable pojrtion of it. will favor his claimB. There are so many new elements the political field; there novel and disturbing vie promulgated, that it is simply sible to forecast the uturej say in 1878 what will pome in 1880. If under any s injected into are so many ws now being impos- and to to pass lifting of the political cards Mr. Tilden should again become the Democratic candi date for the Presidency, it will be a great surprise to nunareaa or inou sands in the South. Bogardus from some cause did not shoot as well in England as at home. The international match between him and Mr. Aubrey Coventry is reported as very exciting, and as causing great interest in England. At first betting was in favor of Coventry;4 The Stakes were $5,000 a side. Bogardus only scored 97, beating but one bird. A London telegram says: "Boirardus had had hard luck, three of his birds falling dead just beyond the line, jj At his fifty-fifth shot Bogardus missed, and Coventry led. Bogardus missed the fifty seventh bird, but Conventry missed . his : fifty.ninth. At the end of the third twenty five birds Coventry had killed 58 ant Bocardua 57. Coventry missed his seventy sixth bird, but Bogardus lost his eighty- second. Conventry fhen led until the eighty- ; ninth, when the scores were even, uogaruus missed his ninety-first bird, and Coventry once more led. but he missed nis ninexy sixth and ninety-seventh bird, wnuei Bogardus lost no more, ending the fourth twenty-five birds by a score of 22 to Co ventry's 20. The excitement was intense! during the last twenty-five birds, for it was not till the very last shot which was fired, by Bogardus that it was decided whether, the latter had won or the match was a tie.! Bogardus was much cheered at the end." should Dro vide for. taxation by the, States of the United States treasury notes as other money is taxed, and be believes .the policy of General Grant's administration, and of the present administration . in converting our debt into a foreign debt ia unwise and inexpedient, and that the true policy of our government ; and the best ' interests of the people. would! be subserve by mak ing it a ! domestic debt by 1 affording the people the most favorable and practical opportunities for investment oi their sa vings in the funded debt of the United States. He believes also in the restoration Of the silver dollar, with full legal tender quality in the. payment of all debts, both public and private, and that the coinage thereof should be made as free and unlim ited as that of gold.
