The United States Sanatorship in
New York.


fact that the New York Herald is one
of his advocates would be surprising
if that paper had not already become
notorious for just such unexpected
'strokes. The New York Times
and the New York Independent beth
heartily endorse MIR. Greeley, the lat
ter paper, which cannot be suspected
Of looking at him through the eyes Of
prejudice, paying the following APP
preciative tribute to his remarkable
abilities:
We know no one whose claims to
the position are stronger than his.
His services to the party have been
long, laborious and effective, and are
entitled to recognition He has very
great ability, large experience in pub
lie affairs, untiring industry, and
would bring a Jealous and cOnscien-
tious fidelity to the public service.
He has marked opinions of his own
on all topics Of public importance,
with the courage to avOW and the
ability to enforce them; and this, at
time when the tendency is so strong
to the absolute tyranny of party die
tation, is a desirable quality in any
one who aspires not merely to hold
Office. but to perform its duties with
credit and the advantage to the cOun-
try. Mr.. Greeley seeks Office because
of the opportunities thus afforded for
useful public service. 1t is an honor
able ambition in any man conscious
of upright motives and Of abilities ad-
equate to the position. We shall be
glad to see Mr.. Greelcy's claims to
the senatorship and his qualifications
for it recognized by the legislature
just elected.
The \. \. correspondent Of the
Springfield Republican truthtuIIy says
Of Mr. Greeley:
lie has fought the battle of anti
slavery aud Jaw ANA order N his city
for nearly u generation; and uow, III
his ripe Old age, it viii bo a graceful
compliment to crown nim with senate
rial honora. They can add little 10
his renown, but they can show the
appreciation OF him BY The people
whom he 50 faithfully served.
