THE DEMOCRATS had built largely upon
the expectation of division in our ranks,
but the ticket put forth at Cincinnati has
united all cliques and clans of Republicans
in its support, including such Liberals as
Carl Schurz and Reuben E. Feuton and
their associates. This fact carries dismsy
into the Democratic ranks. And then, the
Independent Press in all parts of the coun-
try, which has been opposing the present
Administration, has given in its adhesion
to the ticket with such cordial and enthu-
siastic unanimity that the last hope of dis
seusinns hiss disappeared.

Since the nomination of the strong and sue

press generally have. sent up loud and
earnest cry for "Hancock, Hancock, give US
Hancock or we die." The probabilities are
that they will die, Hancock or no Hancock,

least, be protected for the next four years
from Democratic misrule and hate. Next to
our nlustrious President, General Grant, there
is no one who could have filed the Southern
bill so effectively as Governor Fl ayes and Con-

There are one million one thousand one
hundred and one reasons why the Republican
party should still control the national affairs
of the Government, out of which we select the
following: 1. 1t represents the intelligence and
loyalty of the nation. 2. 1t is the champion of
free education and an advocate Of the rights of
labor 8. 1t preserved the Republic in face of the
greatest rebellion of modern times. 4. 1t re-
stored, through its legislative wisdom, the
Southern States to all their former rights and
privileges in the Union. 5. 1t abolished
slavery. 6. 1t made freedom universal. 7.
1t settled the vexed San Juan boundary ques-
tion. s. 1t obtained SIS, ,OO0, 900 from England,
and settled amicably the Alabama depreciation

bcrcd cabs IN tho streets Of Paris besides
which they furnish handsome turnouts by the
year. week or day. When these tutnouts become
shabby the vehicles numbered and placed on the

branches OF the business to advantage, and think the
plan could be adopted by large stable keepers
here. The cheap cabs should be numbered conspicu-
0usly and the silly pretencc often made here that
