JOHN KELLY GETS BACK INTO THE TRACES.
John Kelly said it was true that Han
cocks nomination had united the Democracy
OF New York. Though they had been fight
ing bitterly for Eve years, let past differences
be now banished Cheers. Never again
would he refer to what had transpired in the
past either here or in the State of New
York. He disavowed ever having been
actuated by personal i'll feelings, though in
the anxiety of political contests they some
times said things of each other for which in
more sober moments they were ready to ask
forgiveness. New York could not be carried
except by unity in the Democratic party,
and now that this had been secured he
felt it safe to promise that New York
would give her electoral vote to the ticket
made here. Hancock was not only great
soldier, but a statesman as well--a gentle
man against whom nothing can be said
ICheers. In conclusion, he said to the New
York delegation sitting in the Convention.
LET us return to our houses, organize our
party, and let him who shall first refer to the
troublesome and discordant past be denounced
as traitor" [Great applause. For himself
he promised to do all in his humble power for
the success of the Democratic ticket. Turn
ing to the New York delegates, he said :
''l Let us once for all take each other by the
hand. We have a great duty to perform to-
gether. Let US do it with one heart and
voice" IApplause.l

sponse to calls, but was so hoarse as to be
very indistinct. He commended to-day's ac-
ton as superb. They had healed all the dis
traction existing heretofore in the Democratic
party, and they were now uni,ei to fight one
common foe. lApplause.l But they had
done still more in strangling the discordant
strife which had foc years dominated the
