principles of the Cincinnati convention,
as set forth in the letters of acceptance

House of Representatives in repeating
the date for resumption rs an act of
Reputation and open violation of the
section of the 14th amendment which
provides that the validity of tina pubic
debt authorized by lazy shall not be
questioned; as conclusive evidence of
Democratic duplicity, point, to the fact
that the executive Of this State, who
while required by the law establishing
specie payments in New York and re-
quiring all taxes to be paid in gold on

his party as its presidential candidate

sumption throughout the country; at

people Of New York to pay in gold and
at the same time denying them the
means to do it. "a 4S hen frlf.7 -t4
