The Democtats have been tojed with and jollied from the very ( oinnieiicemont of the fight. They have been told that Quay Is a veiy. very bad man and that he in ut the head of ti veiy bad machine, and that tho thine, to do in the interest of better govern ment and public moials was to mo vent his rotuin to the 1'nlted States senate All this had a veiy pleasant sound until the Domociats boenn ic review the situation In nil Its phases, Natumll y they came to the conclusion that If Quay is a man of the charac ter desciibed b the Independents, the latter .should not hesitate to send u reputable Democrat lo Washington lr his place Tbis suggestion was not at all acceptable to the bolteis, who it alUe that they have gone too far, as) it is in the way or disregarding party pilnciples and consequently the har monious feeling hetetofore existing be tween the anil-Quay people and the Democtats has boon almost entlielv wiped out.
