TILDUX OX POLITICAL TOI'H'S.
few Yoke, Aug. 1. Tito "Tribune's"
Wasbington special says: A prominent
Democratic politician who recently
held a long conversation1 witlrTiluen on
political topics says that Tililen express
es some douTrts as to whether, he will
be able to secure the presidential nom
ination next year. It seems 'hat Til
den fears that the defection in the
Sooth, addeA to the opposition ,in the
ritray--rRi-fi chSnces.v inTbo
co'ttversation the names of other possi-
fble' candruatea were mrntioned, and
their prospects were discussed. Tilden
is reported" to hate iaid, regarding Da
vid Davis, that the Democrats cannot
afford and will not run a mail next
year who has not always been known
as a consistent and thorouglt Democrat.
The salvation of the Democratic party
depends on that course, anil no matter
how obscure the candidate, his democ
racy must bo unquestioned. Being
pressed to name a candidate aside from
himself, who would answer all the re
cjuire'rrcnts, he is said to have remark
ed that Justice Field of California nji
pcared to him tir bb tpe strb'agcsC tind
most available man; that Field's rela
tives were very wealthy and would be
willing to spend a million or two if ho
were nominated; that tle Pacific strifes
wotftfl uinfoabte'dly bo solid in" Iris fa'for
and that he would stand a better chance
in New York and other doubtful north
ern states than any other of the candi
dates whose merits had been discussed.
Tiklete k rr.ortcd also to have said,
hcirercr, that Re did not sen how Dem
ocrats could afford to nominate any
one except himself. Ho claims that
everybody knows that he is one who
was def lauded and abused. The fraud
i issue will undoubtedly be the main is-
, sue of the next canvass.
; "N'piv YottK, July.31.-Tho "Herald"
continues its war.arc on Tifdcn and
saying: liUien, some nioitt-'!
MintfljvWrTat the
Kf5fev York this
this would not matter
rs he could carry it next year. Gover
nor Robinson's phtn fitswcll to Tilden s
prophecy, as though the two had come
out of the same shop, and the public,
which is often suspicious, will go near
to believe that in fact the Governor is
less solicitous for the important inter
ests of the State than to secure his
ffriend ad patron, Tilden's supremacy
in tht State convention.
Meanwhile the "Trfbtmc" continues
to ridicule tho Democratic situatso'ii,
pointing out that if Tilden were really
elected in 1S7G, and cheated out of the
election, the Democracy can do no less
than vindicate him in 1S80, and if not
so elected then thev havo lied for thres
years in crying "Fraud!"

Now that the free delivery system
is a certainty for Portland iiv the near
future, says the "Oregonian' a descrip
tion of its working will be in order.
No definite arrangements have been
made for a delivery here,- but it is en
tirely safe to say that tliey will not Be
different from ?an Francisco and east--
era cities. In cities where mails ar
rive at nil hoursr there are from four
to rn o deliveries" per day in tne business
districts, and usually two in tho out
skirts. In this citv there will proba
bly be one delivery about an hour after
the west side train arrives and one
about half-past five or six, after tho
east side train nnd boats are in. Judg
ing by the population' of Portland,: and
the number of carriers dluployed in
eastern cities of its size, wo shall be
entitled to five or si
Brown botes will Be attached lo
lamp posts on thirty or forty different
corners,- in various portions of the city,
'and situated so that no one will be
obliged to walk more than four or five
blocks to deposit mail matter. The
first collections will be made about
noon, and the second between 7 and 8
p. m. lucre wilt prouauty ne a collec
tion a few hours before the leaving
timo of steamers and a delivery shortly
after their arrival.
Another advantage of tho delivery
system will be felt by tb'ri rliembers of
tho various lodges and societies. These
members constitute at least half of the
adult male population of Portland. A
notice of the meeting" of an organization
written or printed on a postal card, if
mailed before 10 o'clock A. si., will
reach members at noon, or, nt the lat
est at supper, and will in nil probability
be delivered. The postage on drop let
ters addressed to a street and number
is two cents. The carriers will be uni
formed and will receive a compensation
of 736 .25 per,anaurn.

I.oXd'o'X, Arig. 4. Correspondence
in South Africa agree that the capture
of Cctewayo is all important, because
as long as he is free he will remain
the center of conspiracy and mischief.
Gen. Wolsely, however, has no inten
tion of pursuing him with British
troops as the nature of tho country
renders such a course impracticable.
His policy is rather to stir up neigh
boring tribes against the king. Agents
have been sent to fclro Owazies and
Ama'tougas witn1 hfs viei? and 6",000
catllohavo been offered Ohaiu if he
would, capture his brother. One tel
egram says that the prico has been
set on Cctcwayo's head. Gen.. "Wolsley
in an address to a number of chiefs on
July 12th, informed them that he had
no desire to take any" of their territory
but that Cctewayo'was a f ugilrVo and
cotild never mote be a king. Gener
al Wolsley had" summoned all native
chiefs to meet him nt Emangmere, a
fort nine' miles north of Umalatoosa
I river on July 19th, to hear his final
words of settlement. Tho chiefs at
the meeting on July 12th declared
that the Zulu nation had now iio head.
Tftiev ViJs'rtA to lu'avtiio more1 black
kings, nnd said they would prefer John
Dunn for king. They prolniscd to
bring all the chiefs of coast districts to
the Eniangmero meeting. These tribes
however do not constitute the most
warlike part of the nation. A flying
column started for Emangmere July
14th to prepare for the meeting. Gen.
Wolsley and staff will follow. It is
reported from Luneburg thatCetewayo
with 7000 followers, is endeaVoring to
escape across tho northern border to
join Secconi. Tl;ij authorities are
keeping a gocil'lbok-out for him.

It has been declared by tho School
Board of this State thi t parties hav
ing purchased- school' lantl from tho
Superintendents heretofore, and thoso
hpldin'g lands under such purchases
shall make application at once for new
deeds, the present titles being invalidj
W. R. "Willis has been appointed at
torney of tho Board to see that present
holders and owners of suih lands in
Douglas county receive a good deed to
tho same:, It would be well for thoso
interested to call upon him and secure
tlieir titles.
The reason for this action on tho
part ot the State Board is that all tho
Superintendents deeds weremade with
out the power to convey a title, ai
such power is alone invested in tho
Governor, Secretary of State and State
Treasurer; and then, it is stated that
tho State has no' record of the deeds
given by Superintendents, and lands
occupied by thoso having such decd3
aro liable, for want of record on tho
'part of the State to be sold again.
Not Respoxsible. An oft-mooted'
question recently camo uji in Court.
"Didn't you know you were lying when
you said your mistress was outl" asked
tho Judge of a servant girl in a New
York court. "Yes, I did," was the re
ply, "but it is the custom with all la
dies; they aro always out to some peo
ple." It would have bocn'most unfair
had tho servant been held in any way
responsible. It was. not her lie at all,
and it is doubtful if tljo lio was any
body'aT Lie i3- not tho word for it.
uJeing "out" means often simply engag-
ed. It is a necessary equivocation.
Vithout it we wo.tllU be 'fat sixes and

'visitor and you make her your enemy.
Say you aro out and she 13 not offend
ed. Sho may suspect the ruse, for sho
practices it herself, but sho cannot
know it. Tho uncertainty saves her
feelings and keeps your friend. Iu-
there such a thing as a necessary-fib! "
