Mr. Hendricks was born in Ohio, Sept.
7, 1919, graduated at Hanover College in
ls4I; prepared himself for his profession
of the law and settled in Indiana, and prac-
tised with considerable success for some
years, though frequently mingllng in poll
ties. In lS4S he was chosen to the State
Legislature. From 1851 to 1855 he was
Representative in Congress. In 1860 he
ran for Governor against Henry s. Lane
and was defeated. In 1862 he was chosen
to the United States Senate for the term
ending in 1869. In the Democratic Nation
al Convention of 1868 he was prominent
candidate for the Presidency, and at one
time had the highest vote, but was defeat
edIby Vallandigham and the Ohio Demo-
Gratis, who went for Seymour. Since his
Senatorial term expired he has been en-
ployed almost entirely in the practice of his
profession. II he is a good man for the
Democracy to nominate for Vice President,
he is also good man for the Republicans

Samuel ]. Tilden, the Democratic NOM
inee for the Presidency, was born in New
Lebanon, a farming town OF Columbia
county, n. Y, in 1914. He comes of Puri-
tan ancestry, one of the Tildens settling
down in the town Of Sctuate in 1864, and
being prominent in local history thereafter.
When Young Tilden entered Yale in 1882,
at the age of eighteen, he was absorbed in
political matters and wrote an essay on the
evils OF the Whig anti Masonic coalition
against Jackson, which gained him much
credit. In the troublous time of the mon
ey panic of 1887 young Tilden defended
the policy of the Administration, and thus
early enunciated the principles of hard
money 10 which it is only just to say he has
tsadfastly adhered. Amer President Folks
election Mr.. Tilden abandoned politics for
some years aud practised his profession
with great success. The instances of his
remarkable legal ability are too numerous
to be cited. His course during the war was
in sympathy with the prevailing policy of
his party. His deliverances in favor Of
sound m oney were more in accord with
Republican ideas now than his war speech
es could be at any time. While not "cop-
perhead" in the sense which Vallandigham
was so termed, Tilden's record in the war
was not of the best, and will doubtless
provethe vulnerable point in the campaign.
Since the war, Mr. Tilden's work with
Charles o. Conor and others for the destruc-
tion of the "Ring" brought him into prom
inence. In his gallant fight Mr.. Tilden had
the support of honest men, both in and out
of his party. His brief service in the New
York Legislature gave him additional pres
tige as a champion of reform and he was
tIken up by the Democrats as their candi-
date for Governor and elected over General
Dix by large majority. The victory over
the Canal Ring has been one of the most
marked features of the Governors admin
istration, which has resulted In a great re-
duction in the tax levy and general ex-
penses of the State. Governor Tilden, now
sixty-three years old, is five feet ten inches
high, of rather spare build and nervous,
quick, lawyer-like manner. Though not
"magn etic" man, Governor Tilden is a man
of good presence and considerable person.

Campaign Notes.

The Hartford Courant strongly inderses
Governor Hayes personally. IT says of
him: Educated, cultivated, wealthy, pure,
with character securely formed and settled,
we can well feel confidence that the tone of
the Administration will be high and pure.
That Rutherford B. Hayes is a gentleman
no one will fail to know in the course oflhe
next few weeks"
William A. Wheeler is known TO tho re-
publicans of New York as one of the best
presiding officers in the State, an accom-
plishment which will make him especially
valuable when, as Vice President he takes
the chair of tho Senate. Mr.. Wheeler is a
large, powerfully built man, standing very
erect when speaking, aud sending forth his
utterauces with fearless frankness. His
hair is growing very gray. 1t is always
combed with scrupulous care, always
thrown back from high, square forehead,
under whose brows there are very observ-
ant eyes. He wears no beard or NOUS
tache; the jaws are as square as the out
lines of the forhead, 'and the whole face is
expressive of earnest thought.
Governor Hayes made a pleasant little
address the other day to the graduating
class of tie Ohio University, as he deliver
ed to the members their diplomas. He re-
minded them that this was an "age of
shams, of show and extravaganza; an age
of paint, varnish and gliding, where the
homely virtues of economy, industry aud
plain common honesty are forgotten, aud
the vices of show and extravaganza pre-
vail, alas loo Often" He advised them
in going into the activities of such an age
10 carry with them, "not merely into or
dinary transactions, not merely into COM
mon business, but make a part of all
you do In the whole circle of duty and ef-
fort" the maxim, "Honesty Is not only the
best policy, but its own sufficient aud very
great reward" The advice is certainly
good, and there could be no better maxim
for those in exalted public positions.
Incidents of Gov. Hayes's early life be-
gin to crop up thickly in the Western press.
One of the most characteristic is narrated
by the Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Inquirer, who first saw Hayes
when he came from Maumee county, poor,
unknown and Iriendless, TO practice at the
Cincinnati bar. He was shy and depressed
in his manners, and few noticed or asso-
ciated with the stranger, as he took his seat
day after day in the court roam, waiting
for a chance client. One day a wretched
idiotic girl was arraigned for murder. She
had neither friends nor money, and the
presiding judge, thinking to do good turR
TO the briefiess one, assigned to Hayes the
duty of defending her. To the surprise of
al he acquitted himselfln masterly man
ner his eloquent and fOrclble speech Sc
curing the acquittal of his client and gain
ing the admiration of all his hearers. The
opening of which he so successfully avail
ed himself, led to his obtaining large and
lucrative practice.

A Walking Miracle.

Mr.. II. r. STEVENS:
Dear Sr--Though q stranger, want to inform you
what Hegetine has done for me.
Last Christmas, Scrofula made its appearance in my
system-hrge running ulcers appearing on me, as
follows: One on each Of my arms, one on my thigh,
which extended to the seat. one on my head which
eat into the skull bone, my left leg, which be-
came SO bad that two physicians came to amputAte
the limb, though upon consultation concluded not to
do SO, my whole body full Of Scrofua they
deemed 1t advisable TO cut the sore, which painful
beyond description, and there quart Of matter
run from this one sore.
The physicians all up to die, and said they
could do more for me. Both OF my legs were
drawn up to my scat and 1t thought II did get
up again would be cripple for life.
When in this condition saw Vegetne advertised,
and commenced taking it in March, and followed on
with it until had used sixteen bottles, and this
morning am going to plough corn, well man. All
my townsmen say II is q miracle to see me round
walking and working.
In conclusion will add, when was enduring such
great suffering, from that dreadful disease, Scrofua,
prayed to the Lord above to take out Of this
world, but as Vegetine has restored to the bless
ings Of health, desire than TO live, that
may be OF some service to my fellow men, and know
of better way to aid suffering humanity than to
incose you this statement Of my case with
hope that you will publish it, and it will afford me
pleasure to reply to any communication which may
receive therefrom. am, sir, very respectfully,
WILLIAM PAYN.
