I Hendrick. nomination of Landers and
nomination of English, the canvass
begun and carried on upon Il low
plan, smirching Gen. Garfield fell
through, the Greenback weakness,
English refusing to come down with
the stamps and so was disappointed.
Division now stands so that the Re-
publicans can elect any ticket they
nominate, and Grant four years hence
as foreshadowed. 1t is clear that
the existing apportionmenr of the
paIties canntt endure, and as we get
away with sentimental and sectional
politics which has so Tong played in-
to the hands of wicked and weak
men we may hope for the material
we'll being of the country. Questions
which appeal to business men will re-
place our horizontal with our per-
pendicular line of discussions. If a
breakup of the South, VIII ch can no
longer be held solid, will come, there
will be breakup of the Solid North
with its rescue from iminent and eX-
treme peril, and the restoration OF its
prestige and power in the Govern
ment.
London, Nov. 4.-The Advertiser
says eve cannot but regret the re-
suit, in the first place there is no COM
parison between the merit Of the two
men, Garfield is a third rate republi-
can party politician, belonging not
perhaps to the school Of Blaine and
Conkling; but quite is little to that OF
| the RefOrmers. Hancock is with few
exceptions the most distinguished and
without single exception the most
honest and high-minded soldier stlll
! in active service, he is a man Of dis
tinguish so great that even his obnoX-
ious democratic politics could not pre-
vent bis retention in active service,
when even nine-tenths of soldiers, Of
ticers and generals of the federal army
returned to civil life and since they
so fully admired the man OF charac-
ter. Garfield belonSt to the type OF
which Lincoln was the best and An
drew johnson by no means the worst
example.

Gen. Grant in an interview said he
was induced to enter the political
fight merely from anxiety for the
safety Of the country if the demo

made a political speech before, it was
