THE HOPE OF THE COUNTRY,
Rochester Uaion and AdUertise,
(Dem.): "These two letters are the
hope and reliance of the country. The
people watch and wait the day thai
shall see their writers inaUgurated, and
from that day date their deliveJance."
sTATEsN ANLIKE.
Hartford Times (Dem.): sit is 8
statcsmanliks document, in which the
situation OF the country is fully compre.
hended, and the remedies for acknowl
edged evils clearly and rec 3onably
pointed out"
FULL OF BEAAIING HOPE.
Troy Press dem J: "No candidate
for the Presidency since the foundation
of our government ever Issued such an
able paper. 1t is broad In IFS coneeption
and full of beaming light in the MIDST OF
darkness. The letter Of Governor Hen-
bricks is document full of sound polit-
ical reasoning.
FALLACIOUs AND DECEPTIVE.
Hartford Conn Post: ''There is in
Mr.. Tilden's performance Lluch that we
can approve, for it is / rrowed from
standard financial authorities; but the
undercurrent Of his whole discu- lion of
the financial question is fallacious and
deceptive, ard evidently designed to be
So"
GOOD DOCTOR.
Jersey City argus: "It is an easy
thing tell an alIing man that he is
sick, and then let him go his way blind
ly to certain death. But. Governor Til
den not merely points out the ills from
which the nation is suffering; he dircct:
it upon the road that leads to certain re.
covery."
HENDRICKS MOST sKILLFUL.
Rochester Express: "Governor Hen.
dricks's letter in tone and style is alto
gether the most skillful and plausible.
It's sentences are direct and clear, it, a.
sertions positive, and its arraignment of
the Republican party and administra-
ton audacious."
DEMONSTRATION.
Springfield [Mess.) UniOn: "What.
ever effect of spont neousnc 9s Tilden's
lett Or might lave had month ago, he
has, of course, sacrificed by putting it off
until the pttblic became SICK Of the vely
name of the thing"
FULL OF SOUND SENSE.
Utica Observer: awe call upon every
honelt man, whatever his political pref
erences may be, to read carefully Cover
nor Tilden's letter of acceptance. From
the opening sentence to the close it Is
full OF sound sense" .r
SHOWS A HIGHER TYPE of
ABILITY.
Paterson IN. j. Ffess: "Governor
letter is much shorter one,
and, We think, shows q far higher type
Of ability than Tilden's, which is quite
to cunning to be stroDg.n
HAS MUCH THAT Is GOOD.
Boston TfcUetler! s'Tildenjs letter has
much that is good"
SINCERE LOVE OF COUNTRY.
New York EUening Express dem j;
'The lett-r OF Mr. Tiiden is marked with !
all the peculiarities of the man. It Is |
teIse, timely and complete |
ia the discussion of TOPPER which now |
interest the public. Withsll, TOO, II is |
full Of faith and hope as to the capsbiIi. |
ties Of tho cotutTy and people to ts !
brought out Of their present Slough of |
DespOnd,' and the way is pointed out by
making such chang of administration |
and of principles p will insure the de- |
sired end. The letter OF Governor Hen
tricks genersliEes where Governor Til.
len eondensel upon an enlargement of /
he topics discussed. Mr.. IIlden has i
his words, perhaps, with more |
ARE than his Fclociate, but in both let
;ers there is the plainest honesty of pur-
bose, the most sincere love of country,
ind a healthfJl desire to save the coun-
ry from further infections of evil.n
WILL SECURE WIDE ATTENTION.
New York Evening Post (Rep. J: "Not
'nly will Governor Iilden's letter, from
he circumstances in which it Is pub
ished, seizure wide attention, but much
which 1t contains will command the
eady assent OF ali elacses of citizens,
whatever their political associations.
The question remains, would Governor
'ilden, should he b. elected President,
e able to carry out the reforms which
re outlined in his letter? The course of
he Democrats in the house of repre- 3ent-
tives furn' 5hes an answer to this ques-
ion, and very unfavorable answer. Il
, doubt al whether Governor Hendricks,
q attempting to satisfy both hard and
pit money men, has satisfied either.
Governor Hendricks's views of the civil
ervlce are just. We may doubt whether
ne Democrat will do what Governor
hendricks advises them to do; but the
dvice is not the less sound for that
eason."
AN APPEAL To SOBER JUDGMENT.
New York Graphic (Rep J.: HIn
udying its pregnant and polished sem
,nees one cannot but be struck with the
5entisl agreement between the two
val candidates on the main questions
efOre the county. The e. sential agree.
tents are striking; the differences are
Iuslly obvious, but are not marked and
raj enough to furnish the material or
le inspiration for an exciting aud bitter
impaign. The lines are drawn, and .
Ie appeal OF both candidates Is to the
ason, the sober judgment Of an intelli-
mt people,"
DECEIVING THE NORTH AND WEST.
New York Commercial Advertiser
sep.): 1.-THE query at once occurs. i
hen did Mr.. Tilden discover the con. {
act Of 1875 to be a sham and 7
snare? It was net when he repeated,
ter signing the legislative act OF 1875, G
at there must be no step backward 9
9TH mean to deceive the north and =
EST, and both are consis. ent only in ca T
ring for the united support of the
1thern white element. Hendricks is {
ore outspoken than Tlden on the cur
1cy question. He uses less disguise on
9 southern issue. He is even ready to r
We his peace record quoted upon him." :
