New YORK. Sept, %, 1877.
To the Editor of the Ere Press and Times
Sanguine Republicans are pleased to term
"a slapat the administration, the adoption
of most moderate and Just platform, ad-
vising resumption. denouneing subsidies. in
sisting On the rights of labor and capital to
an cgua. hearing, and expressing no opinion
on the Administration = policy, while hoping
it will result in peace at the South. aud
promising that no act ol the Republicans Of
New York shall be withheld for its success.
Ex-Congressman Ward made the strongest
possible answer to all faultl finding with this
platform, in the pithy declaration that if the
announcement of Republican principles be
the condemnation of the Administration,
let that condemnation fall The good Re
publcnns of the state do not derive great
encouragement from the sight Of Il Prcsi-
dent escorted and battered by ex rebels, who
have never shown any convincing proofs Of n
change of heart. They do not relish the
modest demand to appoint lIerschel '. John
son to the vacancy on the supreme bench.
The late news from Mississippi, which reads
as il it dated before the war, with the sight
of "rcconcilcd" Democrats surrounding Re
publican speakers with shot-guns in good
old Southern fashion, is not the exact
style OF harmony preferred here, and
sound Republicans, who protested their
faith before the battle of Antietam,
desire to have it distinctly understood that
the harmony has not got to be entirely on
their side. The Administration, say these
Republicans, talks too much in tue vein of
lilies, and complained that he was always
unanimous but his wife vast. At least
the New York convention has the courage
to express its opinions, and nobody has any
difficulty in knowing what its acts and
words mean.
