A MAN named Edwardy, a greenbacker,
and a supporter of Gen. Grant for the
presidency, says that Weaver, the green
back candidate for the presidency, is
working in the interests of the republi-
cans. Edwardy was supposed to be in
sympathy with the movement on account
of his known partiality for Grant, and he
was entrusted with all the secrets
Viewers expenses are paid by the re-
publicans, and he sends kilograms to the
New York Times describing the situation.
A certain percentagc Of the electoral vote,
which may be secured by Weaver in the
southern states is to be given to Garfield.
Edwardy sustains his charges remarkably
well, and his statement will convince any
mind.

GEN. MCDONALD of whiskey ring fame
has written work giving the inner work
ings of the ring. The preface is decided
ly sensational and gives promise of impli-
eating Grant and other prominent repub-
lican officials in the fraud. Grant prom
ised him a PARDON in exchange for his
promise that he would divulge nothing
about the completely of Grant and his
friends. The president did not dare
to brave public opinion by an immediate
pardon to the convicted thief, and it was
only when Mcdonald threatened to make
clean breast of the whole thing that the
nardon WIS ioouoI. He. promises to

HANCOCK'S LETTER OF AC-
CEPTANCE,
GOVERNORS ISLAND.

NEW YORK CITY, July %, 1880.
CENTENNIAL have the honor to ac
knowledge the receipt of your letter of
july 10, 1850, apprislng me forma lly of
my nomination to the office of President
OF the United States by the National
Democratic Convention lately assembled
IN Cincinnati. L accept the nomination
with grateful appreciation of the conf
dence reposed in me.
The principles enunciated by the Con
vention are those l have cherished in the
past and shall endeavor to maintain in
the future.
RESULTS OF THE WAR.
The thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments to the constitution of the
United States, embodying the results of
the war for the Union, are invioIable.-
Ii called to the Presidency should deem
1t my duty to resist with all my power
any attempt to impair or evade the full
force and effect of the constitution, which
IN every article, section and amendment
is the supreme law of the land. The
constitution forms the basis of the gov
eminent of the United States. The pow
ers granted by it to the Legislative. exc
cutive and judicial departments define
and limit the authority of the general
government. Powers not delegated 10
the United States by the constitution.
nor prohibited by it to the States, belong
to the States respectively, or TO the peo-
pie. The general and State governments.
each acting in its own sphere without
trenching upon the lawful jurisdiction of
the other, constitute the Union. This
union. comprising general government
with general powers and State govern
ments with State powers, for purposes
local to the States, is a policy the foun-
datlons of which were laid in the pro-
foundest wisdom.
OUR POLITICAL SYSTEM
This is the Union our fathers made
and which has been so respected abroad
and so benefcent at home. Tried bv
blood and fire it stands to day model
form of free popular government
political system which, rightly admins |
tered, has been and will continue to be
the admiration of the world Nav we
not say nearly IN the words of Washing |
ton:-The unity of government which |
constitutes US one people is Justly dear |

THE n. Y. Tribune saws the democr

The \. Y. Tribune says the democratic
convention of 1865 had the Infamous
impudence" to demand the taxation of
government bonds. When the farmer
has his sheep, cattle aud farming imple-
N ents taxed, aud the poor laborer his
house, it does seem as if the impudence
which would demand the taxation of the
property of bond holders should hardly
be denominated Infamous" 1t is re-
publican doctrine, however. Bonds
must not be taxed, but bond holders
must be protected 10y the law as fully as

his relative E.V.S. of the n. Y. Tribune,
a class mate of Garfield for the interest
ing bits of biography published of the
republican nominee. 1t appears Gar
field was at church and had but six
pence. This he dropped into the contri-
button box. 1t certainly was a mighty
deed and by it Garfield earned the pres
idency. We often dropped in a penny
into the contribution box when that
amount was the sum total of our cash
assets. As there is no E. V. S. to give
publicity to the statement we are con-
strained to toot our own horn. Though
comparatively, Gar6eld's contribution is
six times greater, its actual excess over
the penny contribution is not SO great as
to make a nation stare like "wonder
wounded hearers"
