Political. • 4 , Mr. TILDF.:4 and his followers have been uniting in their zeal trumping up charges against Gov. 1.1.4vE5, in the vain hope to call away attention from the fact that the great reformer has not yet satisfactorily answered the charges against his integrity and h l onesty• in the matter of income tax and "railroad_ wrecking." Their lat (lst invention was to the effect that Gov. rtAygs was a member of. the Know-Nothing party, and that the American Alliance ,• had made him their candidate thin year, and that he had accepted. This charge was backed by a_forged letter. But now the Secretary of the Alliance squelches the roorback, and 'shows that TILDEN, who depends mainly upon t foieigu .votes for success, gratefully accepted an endorsement from the Society last year, but (lid 'it in a cowardly, hypocritical manner. Let foreigners read it. The letter is addressed to the New-York Tribune ; Stu t T Wish to cmcct some., mistakes made by persons iu commenting upon the lettet'sent to the American Alliance by Mr. A. k. Lee, Gov. Hayes' Secretary, 1. Gov. Hayes never was a member of the American Alliance. 2. lie never saw the, constitution or by-laws of the organiza tion. 3. Nu comini tee of this order ever at any time called upon him, either at .Philadelphia, Columbus, or any other place, for any purpose. We simply in tormed him by letter, that we endorsed his nomination, in ansial:r to which we re ceived the letter from his Secretary. This letter was taken from My office, was as much surprised as any one can be to see it in print. I am at a less to tve, why Democratic papers should find any fault With the pro cceditigs, as we endorsed Mr. Tilden 'for Gaeritor two years ago, and he fogmhio fault with it, but on he contrary was very grateful for the'assistance, only ho requested that it be kept secret, as, if it hlionld become public, ha feared he would hose the, forei g n, vote. Respectfully ;,.obrs, L. S. TiLtLft, `c•cretary American Alliance _Vex-York, (ht 6.-151'6. IN A patriotic speech in Columbus, Ohio, the other day, lIENar ArMir Bitowx, of Philadelphia, drew this vivid and truthful pictu're of the DCIII - party : • " The Democratic party has indeed accomplished, or rather outlived its mission. Its existence to-day, is ris contrary. to all the laws. of healthy polities as it is dangerous to the peace and quiet of the country. It represents no. principle; it is the champion of no great plea. Hunger 1;e1. °like may kohl it together, - blit it cannot till it with lusty. life. The Tory party of 1,7:1; opposed the Rev olution, and went out of existence with that act; the Federal party was indifferent to the war of 1812, and immediately afterwards went to pie ces; the Whir , party was hostile to the war with Mexico, and soon after yielded up the ghost; the Demoetatl m. party apologized tier slavery and championed secession—l need not carry out the parallel. Its continued existence is a national misfortune. it 10.-3ters Southern discontent and keeps alive theories. which threaten your prosperity and would stain your hon Or. And; therefore, thanks td it, to-day the same old question 3 must be argued, the s..me old issues fought about—and the only choice fop the American people is the Republican or the, Deinceratic ;party - . 'I here are no paths but these: bong as you may for new questio4 and new is !sues, you must be to-da tither a Re publican or a Demograt. Which shall it be? I confess, for one , wheth- . er I examine the past, look at the pres:mt, or Tntemplateppe future, it is not difficult for me to-lehoose." l i kr CR E. INGERSOLL, the naturallrator, who is dealing siLhre-haminer `blows against Democ racy, thus describes TILDEN : Who is Samuel T. Tilden? In the first place,...it is generally under stood he is the man who, like. Jacob in the Bible, made his money by wa tering ;1(.6% He is an attorney. He never gave birth to au elevated or noble sentiment in his life... He is ; a kind of a legal spider, watching a web of technicalities for victims. Ile is a compound of Cunning - atid heart lessness,. of beak'And claw and fang. He is one of the few men who can grab a railroad and hide all the deep cuts, tunnels bridges, and culverts in a:single night. He is a corpora tion wrecker He is a demurrer tiled by the Colifederate Congress. Ile waits on tie shores of the sea of bankruptcy to clutch the drowning hy thetthrOat. He would nut save his country if he could He swore he paid his income tax, and he swore to tr lie. He knew it. He was never married. Tammany was the only maiden he ever clasped to his with ered and heartless breast. He court ed men b,:cause women cannot vote, and he has adopted a rag baby that really belongs to Hendricks. At, present his principal business is ex plaining, or trying to explain, how he can ad'opt that-child." i g HOW' TILDEN aided the sick and wounded soldiers of the Union is illustrated by the following. Mr. DANIEL P. JONES, an authorized agent of the United States Christian Commission during the war, has made oath to the following facts, which throw ;some light on TILDEN7S war record: NI:Ns" Tons. Sept,. 21, 18711. I. Daniel P. Jones, of the city-of New York. being duly sworn, depose and say, that during the time when the United States Christian Commission was in exis tence, and about September of 18r,a, whose mission it was to furnish supplies of pro isions and medicine to the sick and woutlded soldiers (I then holdinz an ap pointlnca- under said commis:don), Mr. Sanincl .1. Tilden was waited on, by me and solicited to aid, when the : said S. J. Tilden made in substance the following reply : "I would rather see all the sol diers starve to death than give them one cent ;" and the said S. J: Tilden did not eon ti Unite. DANIEL P. JoNrs.

LETTERS FRU OUR COURESPONDENTS WRION AtE BEiT ISFORMEII3I,I • The suspicion that Speaker Biaire, as presiding officer, had taken too Much in terest in the passage of t a railway bill which benefitted sonie friends, prevented his nomination for the Presidency by the Republicans. Accuked of a - speculation in a foreign claim, ' Minister Orth, denying his guilt but unwilling to burden his par ty with oven a doubt, resigned a promis ing canvass for (invernor of Indiana. Such is Republican dempeelind action. But the fact of Mr. Tilden's being a "railway wrecker,' or remorseless specu lator:in railways, whereby he has gained of dollars l .be undisputed fact that be was kading i counsel in Credit Mo biller Laid other railway swindles; his enormous feett (on which he paid no in come tax) from zotorions railway jobbers all reeking With corruption ; and the fur ther fact that he is Staving off suits omitt ing him of railways windlings----al) these did not hinder his nomination by the Democrats. He was hand-in-glove with Tweed until Tweed was exposed by the New-York Ttmel ;• his friend, Sheriff Conner, allowed Tweed to escape; Tilden offered no reward for TWee4, and did not oust Conner from office ; when the 13. S. officers arrest Tweed io Spain, the Sheriff returns that be can find no pro' erty of 'rated's= to thako good the she mill ion judgment against him in favor of New- York City. Yet the ex-Rebels and the Twecilites hail Tilden as a "Reformer." Iftso, Heaven save Washington City from such Reformers • ,ire. Hendricks was a Rebel Confederate thro%ign the war. He was mixed up with Pacific Railway and other corporation jobbings; by . which lie was largely belie f/Veil pecuniarily. lie shared in the back pay grab, and. holds on to his plunder. And he, forsooth, is another of the "Re formers." Ou the other side, Gov. Ilayes is not even.accused of any railway speculations whatever. lie fought the War for Liberty and Cidon, Mel endured loss of blood and other hardships therein. lie remains pure .rom any and every suspiciun of IMO . Mr. Wheeler stands equally fair tn all respects. He toted against the back , pay grab, and when it naf,sed, paid his share 'all back into the National Treasury, not a (MI of personal profit by it. 11 - itieh nre the ,aU,i ithely "Refornier3?" 410 AN OLD REBEL ,OLIP-TRAP-"REFORM." 4, As long ago as - {N°•?, S)uth Carolina pased a Nullification ordinance.

" Reform" commenced in 1!!.;::.' instead or 18 fl, by Governu: Bayne instead of Govc..rnor Tilden. But Ilayne's sort of 4 . Reform," •whieh was simply an . 30,e:opted Rebellion, w. is short-lived.

I asked him if he under - oOk to I talk stloh as that, and if it his opillioll, as a Wyyr, that this,Go‘ L ernment could enlist men, put arms in their hands, ,iind send , them to the PrOtection of the Government against rehels, and then furnish trilninals to try its own soldiers as trespassers—and bt, ertid that it irt::•." • Ma. CHARLES O'CoNoa has known r EL J. Tri.no; ever since he was born, awl Mr. O'CoNon's opinion of TiLni;s*:; Democracy-ought, there fore, to be worth s6mething.. lie said recently to a friend who asked for a letter of introduction to Mr. TILDEN: "I would be willing to aid you if I could. Of course I havg been as sociated with Tilden in what(' inay be called the Retorm movement, and have acted as counsel with him ;• but I can have no influence with him to secure political favors. You know. I ant a Dembi•rat from principle. Mr. Tilden is a Democrat from expedi ency." TuE Burlington (Iowa) - Hawk Eye has this: "31r. TILTi , EN said that the ' wolf is at the door of every man in the hind.' But when he looked out of his window to see if it was the' Wolf at his d?or, lo I it was the hounds of the law, that had been running upon the hot trail of that income affidavit, and tracked the re former to his lair.
