W
The State Convention.

An Immense Gathering and Un-
wonted Enthusiasm.

 

 

A TICKET NOMINATED THAT WILL W!

 

We believe we have attended nearly every
Whig and Republican Connecticut State
Convention for the past thirty-five years,and
we never saw a larger or more enthusiastic
and determined set of men assembled for the
purpose of presenting a State Ticket to the
electors of this State. As was frequently re-
marked during the progress of the conven-
tion, “The old guard is again at the front.”

The preliminary caucus, held Tuesday
evening, was more largely attended than eyer
before and was compelled to adjourn from
the large court room to Allyn Hall in order
that all the delegates might gain entrance.
The roll of the convention was also fully
made out Tuesday evening. A great diver—
sity of opinion was expressed as to gubernato-
rial preferences, and a large majority favored
an entirely new ticket, but there was no
heated clashing of personal preferences or
local claims to a 'representation upon the
morrow. The one paramount object and
feeling seemed to be to unite all the strongest
elements possible without regard to locality
or any other considerations.

The several counties held their caucuses
after the general caucus had adjourned.
Fairfield County held its caucus and the
names of Amos S. Treat and Oliver Hoyt
were presented as candidates for governor,

and in the event,the first place should not be
accorded our county, the name of John D.
Candee, of the Bridgeport —‘Standard, was
presented as a candidate for lieutenant-gov-
ernor, and ex-Treasurer David P. Nichols, of
Danbury, as a candidate for treasurer.

Promptly at ten o’clock Wednesday
morning the convention was called to order,
and Allyn Hall densely packed with the
unusual and extraordinary crowd of delegates.
Hon. E. S. Day of Colchester, was named as
temporary chairman,and taking the platform
awakened the echoes of the campaign with
a short but ringing speech. Hon. Augustus
Brandagee was named as permanent presi-
dent of the convention, and on taking the
chair he favored the convention with one of
the most able and stirring‘zaddresses which
ever issued from his proverbially eloquent
lips. He held up the mirror before the past
and present histories of the two parties now
claiming the suffrages of the people and his
arraignment of the dishonest and disloyal
Democratic; party mun simply farrifin No
wonder, said he, the Democracy implores us

‘ to forget their past. , His speech was fre-
quently interruped by the wildest outbursts
of applause, and was the presagc of the
literal “love feast" that followed.

Before names of candidates were presented
Samuel Fessenden withdrew the name of
Oliver Hoyt. This was done in accord with
the wishes of Mr. Hoyt. Had not this early
action been taken. we have no doubt that
Mr. Hoyt would have been nominated. The
withdrawal of the name of Mr. Hoyt left
the contest between Gen. William H. Bulke-
ley of Hartford, and Hobart B. Bigelow of
New Haven. The latter slightly leading on
the informal ballot, a Hartford delegate
sprang to his feet and generously proposed
the nomination of Mr. Bigelow by acclama—
tion, and ventured to suggest the hope that
the special friends of Gen. Bulkeley would
permit his name to be used for the second
place on the ticket. This suggestion evoked
the wildest enthusiasm, and delegates rose to
their feet, cheering, waving handkerchief s
and swinging hats. The feeling was univer-
sal that such a combination would “organize
victory,” and in the spirit of magnnnimity
towards New Haven, Hartford called upon
Gen. B. to permit the sacrifice, and thus in
the best spirit of good will frt>m all quarters,
this grandly good ticket was headed.

A recess was then taken and in the after—
noon the balance of the State ticket and can-
didates for Presidential electors were agreed
upon. Fairfield county named her able and
experienced ex-Treasurer,David P. Nichols,
for Treasurer, and he was chosen with great
unanimity. Phineas C. Lounsbury of Ridge-
field, and the head of the great shoe manu—
facturing house at South Norwalk, was
chosen Presidential Elector for the Fourth
Congressional District.-——An exceptionally
strong selecfion. Hon. Abijah Catlin of
Harwinton, the old Republican “war horse”
of Litchfield county, was chosen elector at
large. It may truly be said that every name
on our ticket possesses exceptional strength,
and every single selection is worthy of the
head and all the others. It ensures a grand
success and history in November and has
already started a panic in the ranks of our
adversaries,and the duty of every Republican
is to keep them on the run.

 

 

1764: land 1880.

We enjoyed the very great pleasure, while
at the State Convention last week, of being
shown through the Hartford Couranl's new
building. It is located immediately oppo-
site the new U. S. Court and Post Office
Building, and a few rods below the United
States Hotel. In its unique exterior and
superb and convenient internal fitting up,
our venerable neighbor’s new home is the
most complete establishment of the kind we

, have ever seen. The Gourant was started in
1764, and is not only the 31dest paper in Con-
necticut, but, believed to be the oldest now
issued in this country. We feel the annrrn
may claim to be its first cousin, for while
several other papers were started prior to
1800, we believe no other paper than ours is
now published in Connecticut, which was
started as far back as the beginning of the
present century., The Gourant gives an
exceedingly interesting history of its venera-
ble paper in its issue of Wednesday, August
11th.

 

The “Mules” Here.

Barnum’s mules have reached Norwalk, it
is said. Our democratic Colored Brother
“Abe” having been “supplied" to the end of
“gathering in" all the colored young men who
may be made voters and any others whose
love of bad whiskey overpowers his love of
liberty or the “boys in blue" who secured
freedom to the Colored race. Other pale
faces of the party, it is also said, have been
amply “supplied." -

 

We notice 'on exhibition in VanHoosear
85 Ambler’s window a beautiful crayon pic—
ture, the work of Miss Mattie W. Stone,
which is for sale, as Miss Stone is about to
leave town. Stop and examine it.

17th Conn. Reunion.

The thirteenth reunion of the 17th Regi—
ment Ct. Vols, will take place at Newtown
on the 28th of inst.’August. All the surviv—
ing comrades of that gallant regiment, are
earnestly requested to be present. The good
people of Newtown are preparing to enter-
tain the boys in the most hospitable manner.

day cvenipg from G. W. P., W. A. Lincoln
the G. S, Mrs. F. L. Grumman, of New
Haven and her daughter liIrs.Marvio,<tnd G.C.
Mrs. Phelps of Hartford, and a general good
time was experienced. Quite a large dele-
gation went up from Concord Division and
Friendship of New Canaan was also well rc-
presented.

 

A town ofiicer ought not to be sectional.—
Sentinel.

Thnt's just wha‘we always said when an
up-town collector gave all the town adverti-
sing to the Sentinel, although the GAZETTE
represented four-fold more town voters and
paid ten—fold more taxes than all the other
papers in town.

 

Young Men

Where will be your chance for employment,
if the mad democracy succeed. with their
known opposition to the tariff, the National
Bank system and all that goes to make busi—
ness stable and prosperous, and the times good i
and labor in demand? The young men of the
country cannot too carefully weigh the im-
mense personal interest they have in the pend-
ing political struggle.

 

A Good Suggestion.

Already State Treasurer Baker is quite
generally suggested as our candidate for
State Sensor for the old 12th District.

 

Don’t Like It.

Already the democrats are unhappy be-
cause Gov. Andrewswas not re-nominated.
The injustice to Gov. Andrews is what
they “never will condone.” They realize
even more zealously than the republicans,
that the double B ticket was put up to win,
Hence all their hypocritical sorrow.

 

He Wants the Poor Man’s Vote!

The records of Indianapolis have been
copied to prove the generous nature of the
Wm. H. English who is just now im-
ploring the laboring man’s vote, and frym
the showing a more merciless skin-flint does.
not exist.

The fact that the court records show that
this democratic would be-vice-president, has
during the past three years brought 185 suits
for foreclosures of mortgages all against poor
persons and forty of them women, that
since 1877 he has bought over 200 pieces of
property at tax sales, and that altogether
within the past three years, by foreblosures
and tax purchases, he has gathered in sev-
eral hundred parcels of first-class real estate,
all of which were the property of unfortu-
ate neighbors, who with the return of good
times could have easily paid their debts had
they been treated with reasonable lenity con—
stitutes a sorry recommendation forlhim as a
workingman’s candidate.

The democratic party solicits the support
of the workingman, but asks him to vote
first for a soldier who, is hardly an embodi-
ment of that respect for honest toil that one
would expect in the candidate of a party
making such pretensions, and second for a
man:who has accumulated the wealth that
alone made him an available candidate by a
cruel disregard for the rights of helpless pov-
erty.

 

Norwalk church goers enjoyed two ex-
ceptionally good sermons on Sunday. The
assistant rector of St. Paul’s, the Rev. Ralph
Hoyt, delighted his audience Sunday morn-
ing with a rarely able and eloquent discourse
while at the Congregational church, Rev.
Mr. Arrighi of Italy, but temporarily resid-
ing in Darien, we believe, preached a deeply
interesting and eloquent sermon.

 

Vennor, the Canadian weather prophet,
must be dealt with. He predicted frosts and
snow from the 14th to the 20th of August
and sure to his predictions frost promptly
appeared on low grounds yesterday, Monday
morning. .

 

The editor of the Norwalk Democrat has
got a bad attack of color blindness. _ He can't
distinguish colors and often sees double.—
Danbury Republzban.

Why, what could you expect of a poor be-
nighted, deluded democrat? Instead of
”seeing double” his trouble is, he is so blind
he can’t see anything-politically, we mean
of course.

 

At the open air temperance meeting, next
Sunday afternoon, Dr. G. S. Comstqck will
lecture upon “The Physical Effects of
Drunkenness,” which he will illustrate with
diagrams, &C. It is hoped that there will be
a large attendance.

 

Death of Rev. Chas. Y. Swan.

The Rev. Charles Y. Swan, died at New
London, his native place, on Thursday last.
He was forty years of age on the 5th inst.
He was ordained to the ministry, we believe,
at South Norwalk, and installed as pastor of
the Baptist Tabernacle. His succeeding pas-
torates were in Gloversville, New York;
Northampton, ,the Bowdoin Square church,
Boston, and last, the Baptist church of New:
ark, N. J ., of which he was pastor five years.
His ministry over the churches named varied
in length from three to five years. He was
brought to his father‘s in New London from
the mountains where he had gone for his
health. He died of consumption.

 

The coming democratic County Convention
already promises to be a lively affair. Can-
didates for Sheriff are as thick as flies in a
Burlington hotel, and war has already com-
menced. Norwalk has its full share of as-
pirants, and even quiet Wilton has several
candidates who are pushing for the top with
a good deal of vim. Sheriff Sanford has
gained a point by securing the election as a
delegate of his deputy and right-hand man
at South Norwalk who will be sure tobe
heard in 'the convention, and will run it if he
con. Other candidates, however, need not
despair, for, even politically the best laid
dlans often miscarry.

“SI—-
Harbor Improvement.

Superintendent Johnson informs us that
the work of improving the harbor will prob-
ably be resumed by the government contrac-
tors some time this week. The work will
probably be commenced between “Gregory’s
Point and the steamboat dock.

 

Mining Property, ‘
Attention is called to the card of Mr. Eben
,Eaton in this issue. Mr. Eaton is located
in Leadville, and makes it his business to
personally investigate all property which he
offers for sale. He is well-known to our
citizens, as an up-right, honorable gentle-
man, and persons desiring to invest in min-
ing property will .do well to correspond with
him.

We always supposed the Garden of Eden
to have been located in One of the Oriental
Countries, but as Aadm's House was pointed
out to us by a friend we have been compelled
to change our mind. The house is situated
corner of Wall and River streets in our Own
town, showing that the famous garden re-
ferred to must have been located here, unless
Adam emigrated to this place, after 'being'
driven out of Eden

Notes of the Convention.

In addition to Mr. Treat of Bridgeport,
who was urged in county canvass by Mr.
Dunham as a candidate for governor, Mr-
Candee, the editor of the Standard, was
named as a desirable candidate for lieutenant
governor. Mr. Dunham was spoken of as
a candidate for Secretary of State.

The withdrawal of the name of Oliver
Hoyt, after he had received the unanimous
vote of his county, was a surprise to his
many friends who desired and felt sure of his
nomination, but it was claimed to have been
done in compliance with Mr. Hoyt’s perem-
tory orders.

An almost universal wish was expressed
for the continuance of Talmadgc Baker on
the ticket for Treasurer, but it was thought
best to supply a new ticket throughout, and
the next best thing was done in rcnominating
our old and exceptionally popular treasurer,
David P. Nichols of Danbury, the treasurer's
place on the ticket being thus gracefully
conceded to Fairfield county.

Governor Bigelow is a large manufacturer
of steam boilers and machinery in New
Haven, and is now its mayor, having been
elected by over 2,000 majority in a city
usually going from two to three thousand
Democratic. His name was presented in a
most able and convincing manner by Hon.
Geo. H. Watrous, President of the Consoli—
dated railroad, who headed the New Haven
delegation. He spoke . of Mr. Bigelow’s
wonderful success in the administration of
his own business affairs and the public inter-
ests of New Haven, as its mayor. He
narrated his marvelous personal mag-
netism by reason' of which he insensibly
won everybody,and made them his followers
and friends and by reason of which quality.
he was able‘to be elected in democracy-rid-
den New Haven. Springing from the common
people, a poor boy, unaided and alone,he had
won honest fame and fortune by dint of his
native nobility of character, and he—the
speaker—was struck with the remarkably
similar parallels which ran through and so
conspicuously characterized, the lives of
Garfield and Bigelow.

The platform was made short, unambigu-
ous and to the point, and all in all, the con-
vention was a grand success in all its action.

 

 

Golden Wedding.

Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Ells, of Ansonia,
formerly of Norwalk, celebrated the fiftieth
anniversary of their marriage, on Saturday
evening last. The party was held in Military
Hall, Ansonia, and included several relatives
from Norwalk. May they live to celebrate
their diamond wedding.

been stabbed. The force of the knife had

Shooting Affair In Stamford.

An affair occurred in Stamford last Satur-
day night, which created much excitement.
It seems that a dentist, named Hewes, had
formerly waited upon an attractive and
highly respectable young lady of the place,
but she had recently discarded him. Lately
another young man had shown her atten-
tions, and Bowen sent her several letters say-
ing that if the young man did not stop his
visits he would shoot him. The letters did
not have the desired effect, for on Saturday
night the lady and gentleman appeared to-
gether on the streets. Hewes met them, and
calling the young man aside, repeated his
threats. The young man retorted that he
might commence then for he would probably
never have a better chance. Hewes then
drew his revolver when a scuffle ensued, but
before any very serious damage had been'
done the parties were separated. Hewes
was arrested at once, and on Monday was
brought up for examination. He was put in
charge of an officer and allOwed to go with
him to seek bail. Arriving at his father’s
house in New York State, he shook off the
officer and refused to return. If he is finally
secured, his written threats of shooting and
the assault with a revolver will make a strong
case against him.

 

Tun Srmxn —'-The strike of Mayor Swartz‘s
cigar makers culminated Saturday night, the
Mayor sending word for the men to 'commence
work on Monday. The way it was brought
about was somewhat unusual, as it is told to
us. The firm employed twenty-one makers.
Last fall prices were reduced, under promise
of return to old prices in the Spring. This
summer Mr. Swartz, although paying consid-
erable less than other local manufacturers for
the same class of work, raised his prices on
one grade of goods of which, it is said, but
few are made, and reduced prices on the
grade which is the principal work. The men
struck, and Mr. Swartz held out. The men
appealed to the hatters several times for
“sympathy,” and finally, on Saturday last the
hatters voted to extend sympathy, and also
voted to refrain from trading at Swartz &
Co‘s store, or buying goods of their manufac-
ture at any other place, during the continu—
ance of the strike. This actidn brought mat-
ters to a focus at once. The strike has made
much feeling, and democrats very freely ex-
press the opinion there it has ruined all of
the Mayor's political plans for personal
advancement for this campaign at least.

 

BROOKSIDE PARK.

 

CLOSE OF A WEE K28 CAMP MEETING EXERCISES.

 

If one spot in Western Connecticut more
than another is calculated to inspire religious
thoughts and lead the mind to devotions,that
spot is Brooksid'e Park, in Redding, on the
line of the Danbury & Norwalk, R. R., and
owned by the railroad company. It is a tract
of more than seventeen acres, of elevated dry
ground, upon it stands trees of a century’s
growth and “streams of water ever flowing”
pass near, making the landscape complete.
The railroad company have wisely expended
money in beautifying the grounds,laying out
walks, which,to the credit of superintendent
Sandiforth who planned them are very com-
plete and beautiful. Nature, in her primitive
moods always smiles, but assisted as she has
been in this instance she assumes a bright
countenance beeming, as if with satisfaction.
The “Sermons in stones” one reads about,
may be realized here, for the very rocks
which have been moved after slumbering for
centuries in their beds, seem to nod assent to
the changes which have caused them to be
disturbed. Surrounded by all this magnifi—
cence the people of the M. E. Church in this
part of the State,and vast numbers belonging
to other churches set their tents and began
religious exercises according to the ways of
that great and growing denomination, birds
singing from the branches of the trees, and
the sun shedding its brighest rays in token of
appreciation. The exercises were of a less
typical nature this year than formerly, being
conducted under a pavilion of wood larger
than any similar structure in the State. The
Early; fathers thought it. not unworthy their
zeal to accept the broad canopy of heaven as
their pavilion, but then the March of im—
provement changes methods, and even strong
advocates of the doctrine of adhering to an-
cestral example admit that in case of rains,
and there were not a few last week, a water
proof roof, substantial plank floor and seats
with comfortable backs, are not calculated to
detract from religious order. Of the pavilion
it should be further stated, that rare acoustic
qualities, enable a visitor to hear every word
of a speaker though he be opposite and eighty
feet away. Presiding elder Hill of New
Haven had charge of the devotional exercises
and he was assisted by many eminent speak-
ers and exhorters. The good old psalm tunes
were sung, and there was uninterrupted en—
deavor throughout the week-to render the
work in hand productive of good. ~ Not less
than 25,000 persons visited the Park during
the Week, the railroad transporting a large
share. Some visitors drove a distance of
forty miles. During the coming year the
park will be enlarged and further improved.
New walks will be cut, flowers planted and
fountains introduced. The exercises of taste
and judgment on the part of the company is
therefore likely to place Brookside Park at
the head of the list of attractive country
breathing places. An incident of the week
was the visit of Judge Myron L. Mason, of

Greenwich, who had attended Camp Meeting

in that very grove more. than 30 years ago,
before theDnnbury Railroad was built. His
description of the grove's appearance now as
compared with what it was then, was inter-
esting and instructive. PAUL,

 

According to the Cincinnati Gazette, Gen-
eral Hancock in 1868 wrote to Hon. S. T.
Glover of St. Louis, “endorsing the platform
and candidates of the democratic party of that
year, which platform declared all the consti—
tutional amendments, the enfranchisement of
the negrocs, and- the entire work of recon—
struction null and void. The letter also
indorsed Frank Blair's letter to Broadhead
advocating sending the army south to undo
the work of reconstruction.” This shows
that if elected,Hancock will be a subservient
tool of the southern demorcrats in their work
of “wiping out all the war legislation.”

- I.

The Hon. A. B. Lamberton, who was the
democratic candidate for congress in the
Thirticth New York district at the last elec-
tion, has written a letter in favor of Garfield
and :Arthur. The letter is addressed
of the Rochester Democrat, and in it he
says: “You can put me down for support—
ing heartily the nominees of the republicen
party. I shall return in time to work hard
for the election of Messrs. Garfield and Ar-
thur. . * * * The southern question is to be
the leading question in this campaign. It is
said that the republican party is wave
again the ‘bloody shirt’ before the coun—
try. Now, it is strikes me that the
republican party is not responsible , this
time for the sectional question being
paramount in this fall’s election. It was
Wade Hampton who forced this issue to the
front when he pledged the democracy in
convention assembled, solid south.’ That
his state, although ‘a black republican state, ’
should becountcd for Hancock and English.
None knew better than he that it was only
through the process of bulldozing and tissue
ballo‘tt that this could be accomplished.”

Correspondence. , .7;

Once more I deem it my duty to give the
readers of the old Gaznr'rr. an idea of what
is going on down here in the Democratic
party. They have no newspaper organ here
and as a great many of them take your paper
they will no doubt remember your corres—
pondent with gratitude for his trouble.
Kinney was obliged to go to Delaware, last
week, to be fixed up for a very troublesome
disease of the heart that‘s hanging about him,
consequently the club could not be organized,
but he came came home this week and went
right to worm-politically, Wednesday night
they met in caucus to appoint delegates to the
several conventions. Brother Charles Town-
send was there and made a speech, the same
one he delivered some years ago when he
was trying to get the nomination as repre-
sentative, but to most of the brethren it was
fresh. Dibble remembered it for, he was
guilty of making some very unsavory re—
marks about the gentleman. The brethren
were out in full force. Jere was there, the
General, the two Smiths, the Mayor, Pap
Fitch, Still, and a large number of the
notables. Kinney, the convert, was there
also, looking as fresh as though he had just
come from the Isle of Pines. Everything
went along as cleverly as need be; Jere did
not object to anything, and the brethren
began to think that_he had come to his senses
and was going to let respectability rule; but
Jere knew his business, he knew what he
wanted, it was to be delegate to the County
Convention, and when the time came for
voting he was on ,hand with the winning
cards, and when the contents of the bats
were counted it was found that he was
elected by alarge majority; but some one
was suspicions that there were more ballots
in the hats than people in the room, so heads
were counted and it was found that there
were five more ballots than people in the
room. Jere offered to throw off the five,
but on account of Kinney being there for
the first‘time it was thought best to order a
new ballot. Kinney asked Dick if that was
their mode of doing business. “Oh, yes,"
says Dick, “that’s nothing; why, the first
time I attended a Democratic caucus it was
down in the Opera House Block, and I was
appointed to pass the hat. Some put in
two, some three, and one fellow put in a
whole handful. That was too much for me,
and I told the General, but the General said
that was democratic, You see, Kinney, the
Democrats used to have three cardinal prin-
cipals, viz.: Free trade free speech and free
rum, they have now added another, that is
a free ballot; it. seems a‘little strange to a
new convert like you, but after a few rounds
you will get used to it. I hate these fellows
like Jere and his crew, but what are we to
do? You know they do the voting. Jere
controls more votes to—day than all the rest
of us, so we must let him have his way, if
we do not the D—i is to pay at once. Kin-
ney, you will soon learn to love this dear old
party. They will give you a world of atten—
tion; already I hear whisperihgs in the air
that you are to be president of the Kinney &
Hancock club to be formed to-morrow night,
and there’s no telling what other delights are
in store for you, for they never measure a
man by his brains," and then Kinney began
to swell up. up, until he looked like one of
those bags you see outside of the tents at
circuses, and Dick slipped over and told the
General to what immense dimensions he
had blown Kinney up with a little Demo-
cratic wind. Another ballot was taken and
Jere got it by a large majority, so he is dele-
gate to the county convention, and if we are
so unfortunate as to have a Democratic vic-
tory he will probably be‘onc of our deputy
sherifis. After his election he made a speech
about things in general, but the drift was
who should they nominate for State Senator.
He favored Thomas M ; he said' they
must have a man with along pocket book, if
we don’t there is no show at all for us;
M has got it, and if we nominate him
he will sling it around among the brethren at
a fearful rate. With that announcement old
fury and the rest of the brethren went into
a general hurrah for everybody, and then
adjourned. The next night the brethren

 

 

met again to form their Kinney and 'Hancock‘

club, and sure enough Kinney was put in as
president, notwithstanding he did not have
the fifty or hundred young Republicans that
he promised them. I suppose he told the
brethren that they were so young that they
were somewhat tired, but he had them all

the same on paper, he had got their names

and would see that they were delivered later
in the canvass. But it looks now as if
Kinney was the only one he could deliver.
I never saw the Republicans in better shape
for business. They meet to organize Mon-
day night and every man of them says he
means business. South Norwalk will give
Garfield and Arthur the largest majority she
has given anyone for years. OLD WELL.

Mr. William H. English must be recog-
nized by this time as a great disappointment
to his party. He was nominated simply be-
cause he was the one Indiana candidate who
had a hogshead of money. At the same
time the Democracy hugged the delusion
that he was a statesman as well, a man whose
character and record' would appeal to the
people of the E'tSt. No sooner had they
fairly nominated him than they discovered
that his “bar’l” was firmly headed up. The
Democratic press sadly recorded the fact that
Mr. English had an iron door on his house
and had been seen on cold winter nights,
presumably with his bare legs trembling in
the blast, guarding his boarded wealth with
a revolver. This was not the sort of man to
pour out his money like water to carry In—
diana, and the men who should ask him to
do it were evidently in danger of being wel~
comed with bloody hands to hospitable
graves. Meanwhile Mr. English went about
in the manner of an itinerant pedler, adjnr-
ing every one to “help us in the advance
skirmish in Indiana," every one whom'he
addressed knowing that he ,was nominated
simply to buy up Indiana, if possible. Thus
one sweet illusion faded. But he was still
suspected of being a statesman, until his let—
ter of acceptance dashed that hope to the
ground. The Washington dispatches give a
pointed intimation that the letter would have
been even more vulgar and foolish than it
was, if Mr. English had, not been held back
by main force. He looms up, then, as the
worst failure in recent Democratic annals.
He is defeated in his own~State, and is not
capable of making a good reputation outSide
of it. He cannot write a‘respectable political
document. 'He will not even buy mules.—
