D sentative, who has been sounding
Democratic members, says that the
opinion is general among them

of the Federal election laws drop

Comm snts on Cank,ing's speech.
NEW YORK, April 25.-The
World says Of Conkling's speech:
Silent when speech would have
been golden on the great question
y of silver, and dumb for many
months while the country listened
In vain for his apocalypse as to
the infamy of Hayes aud Hayes's
administration, the Senator
from New York yesterday came
I uproariously to the front in support
of Supervisor Davenporps Use Of
Z iron cages in elections, and the re-
nomination of Grant. His speech,
we are sorry to say, will make it
difficult for his best friends to de-
fend him hereafter against the
charge that he governs himself in
i politics solely and absolutely by his
personal spites and interests.
= The Tribune says: Conkling's
speech seems to have produced a
most profound impression upon his
own party. All accounts, friendly,
Z unfriendly and impartial, agree in
pronouncing it an extraordinary
speech, holding the vast audience
|, hour after hour in almost breath
less attention, and actually throw
Ing the Democratic majority into
confusion. No brief outline or alb
& stract can do it justice. 1t is
the speech of the lawyer anu
statesman, and scarcely at all
of the politician. 1t is free from
invective, and absolutely without
y emotional effects. Cool, logical,
deliberate and unanswerable, we
venture to predict that no Demo-
crat will attempt to pick flaw in
the close-knit fabric of this legal
argument, which leaves no point
uncovered and no point vulnerable.
Conkling's severest critics must
concede him high place among
statesmen.
The Herald says: The speech is
strong and impressive, and he hard
q ly ever makes any other. 1t was
effective as a manifesto issued to
the Republicans of the Nation
trumpet-tongued utterances, well
fitted to arouse and inflame party
passions, which was the undis-
guised purpose of his speech. Still,
his vigorous exposure of the folly
and mischief of united South, de-
: serves the thoughtful reflection of
the leaders of Southern opinion
and of all citizens of that section.
