Mn PRESIDENT GENTLEMEN OF THE CONVENTION -
Ny noble friend has said and SAID most truly that New
York republicans are fortunate that they have amcGg
their number many men who would ably and faith
fuzzy iulnl the duties OF the chef magstracy OF this
state. Many o thq6e names have been freely men,
toned among during the three days passed, aud
among them ali there one whose character
spotlcss and pure There is not one whose abll-
NY ana udey To the party and to the country. not
each Of those candidates, for whom. you know.
during tue last lew days the contest has been one
less of good feeling and good humor than II has been
earnest and Jealous Is attended by his personal sup
porters and confess that for myself, this per-
sonal question: were you fellow citizens called upon
to decide quorum simply upon personal feelings.
should feel myself many Of YOU who hear
would feel yourselves, seriously perplcxed and cmbar
rasscd to Know TO which OF these gentlemen give his
vote in this Convention. But, gentlemen stand IN
the presence OF cause, not personal
character. nut the cause OF country,
before which all personal favor disappears.
tApplause) Upon this sacred arena private amb-
ton, no personal favor shall stop with your
our cause, as you know the OF freedom its
largest sense The cause in the old time OF free
speech and Tree men is less the cause OF free
schools and free votes-al pause-and in the face OF
THIS cause. In this fearful emergency, the demo-
cratic party claims shall return to power
tho party which was the long ally to
| slavery. and to speak in phrase OF political
history IS rcsponsb bic for the for its enormous
losses OF blood AMI treasure ono hundred years ago
