imous.
When Governor Hoffman arose tC
cast the vote of New York, her delega-
ton was greeted with three cheers.
Order being restored, Governor Hoffman,
disputed Missouri's promise to give
Greeley the largest majority OF any
! State. He said the New York majority
would be larger than Miss0uri's total
vote. He also expressed his regret thai
there had been any division of the vote
here. He knew those who did not vote
for Horace Greeley were acting con-
scientiOusly, but he desired to appeal Ia
them. New York is Democratic State,
has more than four hundred thousand
Democratic votes, and these were ready
to sacrifice personal preferences and
prejudices on the altar of the country.
He hoped their brethren would do the
same. lGreat cheers.
