Probably the best way to judge OF the effect Of to-
days nominations is to discover how they

a very weak candidate in many respects. First, as
one Of Buffers most intimate friends puts it to-
night, he must carry the odious Civil Damage law

expect will ALLEVIATE the Pierce men aud prevent that

a notorious fact that Buffers Boston organ has

REPUBLICAN FEELING.
The republicans. on the other hand. are very much
pleased with the nominations. Ex-senator Boutwell,
and Senators Hoar and Dawes expressed themselves
well satisfied with the sul before they left town.
They say that with such man on such q platform
the indecent raids of General Butler will be stopped
forever. They assert that of the most vigorous
campaigns ever fought in this State will take place
this fall. Massachusetts, must take high place in
the republican column i'll 1850.
THE BOSTON PRESS ON THE RESULT OF THE
CONVENTION.
Boston, Sept. 16. 1879.
The newspapers comment the results Of the
Worcester Convention rs follows:-
The Journal considers that tho platform deals
with living issues clearly defines the republican
position ut the present time.
The Herald thinks the republicans made mis-
take. the result of which will be narrowing of tho
party in the campaign 1t says:-"rhey had op-
portunty to enlarge the party by nominating can
didate who would have received great number of
votes from outside the old lines. who rep
resents the antButler sentiment of the State. But
the men and the narrow view prevailed, and
the work of defeating Butler is heavier than it
might have been.

he will be elected.
The Advertiser says There is no longer divi-
sion in the republican party of Massachu sets.
From this hour all disappointments are to be for
gotten and all regrets buried" It accepts the deci-
sion of the Convention in good faith and invokes to
its support all who still have faith in the republican
cause.

ton from both the republican and Butler parties,
and ut the present writing his defeat is quito as
probable his election"
