that the whole country is their coun-

OF Mr.. English, the candidate for
Vice President, Senator Bayard said
"Mr. English, as the nominee for
Vice President, adds much strength 10
the ticket. He has been in Congress,
and..has conducted himself with credit.
| also have occasion to know that he Is
an able and careful business man, and
his management of money matters is
most excellent. In one thing Indiana
is fortunate-her representative on the
ticlsst is sound on the money question"
Mr.. Bayard's opinion Of the COM
bined ticket is:
81 think it an eminently strong one.
Both candidates are men whom the
country can implicitly trust, and they
should, and doubtless will be, elected" F"
OTHER VIEWS.
From number of opinions given to
a GAZETTE reporter by leading citi-
zens, the following are given as show
ing the general drift Of local public
sentiment in regard to the nomina-
tions
tThe Democrats of this State as
well as the Democrats of the United
States may well congratulate them
selves upon the Cincinnati nomination.
Tie canvass of the respective candi-
dates was conducted with such a spirit
of uprightness and fairness as to leave
no ground for bitterness or personal
animosity, and the result could be ac-
cepted only with the utmost harmony.
Seldom has such body of able men
met in convention and seldom has
there been such harmony of action,
absence of discord followed by such
happy choice. The various expect
ants have cheerfulIy acknowledged the
wisdom of the choice and have sent
their congratulations to the nominee
Harry Sharpley, Esq.
81 think the ticket unexceptionally
strong. Hancock will prove exceed
ingly popular throughout the North,
and will undoubtedly be elected.
English is a very able man. He was
in Congress during the four years l
was a member of the House, and
was leader of the Douglass forces.

General Hancock will make q strong
