Freshets are expected in the Humboldt
River when the snow begins to go in ear
nest. The Silver State says: Ths Hum
boldt River is now several feet higher than
it was a few weeks ago, and is rising steadily.
Many are of the opinion that when the SHOWS
on the ranges at the head Of the river begin
to melt next month, that the water will be
higher than it has been for four or five
years. The freshets come about the latter
part Of May or the first Of June, II at all.

cations for its leadership. What
other meaning is conveyed by the
statement that Gen. Hancock is the
strongest man tho party could have
chosen? What other inference does
that party warrant or permit, than
that the party's weakness is in its
own political character, and its
strength in the ooussslmant Of its
character behind the name of q man
who is not known as q representative
Of it, nor of any political character
whatever, but only as q respectable
soldier? Generally it is a rational
opinion that the strongest man a po.
litical party could take for its polit-
ical leader would be its best known,
most popular, most representative
statesman. If there be any excep.
tion to this general rule, must it not
be when the party stands in mortal
terror of itself ?

record, standing with the Democrat.
10 party he will repulse tho soldier
vote. 4.
The Richmond, Va. State, in
urging upon the ex.Confederates Of
Virginia the necessity of uniting
and assuring to Hancock the "solid
Soath," says: aWhat every Demo-
crat in the South should aim at now
is the victory for the sake of the
good that must follow from it to our
people and section, and not at any
personal benefit or profit that may
accrue to each or any of u.s." The
good that "may accrue" to the ma
ton does not enter into their calcu-
lations, nor into the entire Demo.
cratic party. Should that party as
sumo control of affairs, the ideas
that once paralyzed the country,
would again prevail. In fact the
nation would be made poor to en-.
rich the section. The present equal
distribution of taxation would be
destroyed, and one substituted fav.
oring as m uch as possible the South.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, d. G. August 10, 1880.
The enthusiasm which has every
where marked the progress Of Gen
eral Garfield through the State of
New York is a gratifying evidence
Of his popularity with the voters.
At no time since the war has such
spontaneous enthusiasm greeted q
Presidential candidate 80 early in
the campaign. The conference now
being held in New York, and to at
tend which General Garfield jour
neyed to that city, is secopd only to
the Chicago convention, and is the
most important ever held within the
party. The attendance Of leaders
Of different factions show at once
that the jealousies aroused by the
Chicago convention are forgotten,
that Republicans will fight Demo
Gratis, and not each other. The con.
ference also shows that, contrary to
Democratic expectations, the Repub.
lican party is about to take off its
coat and go to work and elect Gar
field.
The fact that the Republicans are
in earnest, that there is no lukwarm.
ness in the party, drops like wet
blanket over the hopes of the Demo.
Gratis. They had talked so much,
and their organs had said so much
about it, that they evidently them
selves believed that the reported ap-
athy was real, and Democratic vic.
tory was assured. They entered the
campaign, firm in the belief that
Hancock would arouse an epthusi-
asm never before known, that Re-
publicans crippled at Chicago, would
be content to "sit on the fence and
see Hancock go by" that the love Of
the "superb" in man, would out
weigh all considerations of party
platforms; would Danish history;
would silence the inquiries as to fu.
ture policies, and that the voters in
this country are hero worshippers,
and not calm, cool observers of, facts
and figures. One cannot hel y no.

ing the soldier vote. They entered
upon the campaign firmly convinced
that Unicn Soldiers everywhere
would rush to the Hancock standard.
Almost six weeks have passed, but
the stampede has not yet occurred.
II is very evident that fifteen years
have rot sufficed to efface from the
soldier memory the action of the
"copperheads," who, afraid to join
their friends, under the protection
Of the federal government, by their
votes, fought the soldiers as 6ercely
as did the rebel in front. The nom

TINE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.
A PARTY WHOSE STRENGTH CON-
SISTS IN CONCEALlNG ITS
CHARACTER.

Chicago 'srimes''l
All the organs of the Cincinnati
party are declaring with great posi-
tiveness that General Hancock is
"the strongest man tho party could
have nominated" This declaration,
considered in the light Of well-known
facts, implies very singular state
of things. Every one knows that
General Hancock has been, from his
youth, in tho profession of soldier;
that he has not been educated for
any pursuit of civil life, and has
never entered upon any civil pur-
suit; that he has no political knowi-
edge other than may have been
gained as casual student Of politi.
cal literature; that he has had no ex.
perience in civil affairs, either ad.
ministrative or legislative; that he
is in no sense statesman or a pub
licist, and has never shown, never
had opportunity to show, my partc-
lar capability or fitness for political
leadership. In word, he is a man
without any political record or stand.
ing whatsoever. 1t is in the pres
ence of these facts that he is said TO
be "the strongest man the party
could have nominated" for its politi.
cal leader. The statement may be
perfectly true; but, If true, what is
the inference it obviously warrants
and invites 1t implies that any of
the statesmen who have been long
conspicuous as leading men Of the
party, who have given shape and di.
rection to It's political actions, and
are widely known as its representa-.
tive men--men who represent its
policies and political aims--would
not be strong candidates; and it
implies that their weakness as can
didates would dwell in the fact that
they would be recognized as among
its foremost representative men.
General Hancock, on the other hand,
not being recognized as among its
representative men, is exempt from
this cause of weakness. He is the
strongest man the party could have
named, because he is less Identified
with the party, less representative
Of its politics and political reputation
than any other the party could have
named. In other words, his strength
as the party's chosen leader, consists
in the fact that he has never been
among its leaders, not known as pos.

From Stanley Matthews Clifton Speech.
The great effort of the Democratic par
ty for the last two years, since they have
had concurrent majOrities in the TWO
houses of Congress, has been to get ria
of JOHNNY Davenport, in the city OF New
York. because he stood between 6O,OOO
fraudulent votes and the people of the
country, and has stood there and has
paid the expenses of his Office out his
own pocket until to-day, as he swOre be-
fore the committee the other day, and
the government is indebted to him TO
the extent of $4,000, which these gen
tlemen who are so earnest in their de-
sire for pure elections and protected bal
| lot boxes refuse to appropriate, because
Mr.. Davenport is the representative IN
New York of the freedom OF the ballot
and the purity of election. Applause. ]
What safeguard has ever been proposed
to insure a free ballot that has not been
proposed by the Republican party? And
what safeguard has ever been proposed
that it has not met with the united and
determined and persevering opposition
of the Democratic party? Applause.
So much so that they took refuge, as they
continually do, in that refuge of lies, the
doctrine of state rights, to say that the
attempt on the part of Congress to exer-
else its jurisdiction in respect to the
election of members of Congress, officers
of the United States government, is an
lnfractiOn of the reserved rights OF the
state invasion of the jurisdiction OF
local ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS tt

tended for application to all human
affairs-and think intended especially

can they point to a single measure
