RATIFICATION IN WHEELING.

A grand aud enthusiastic Hancock and
English ratification roeting was held in
Wheeling on the 26th ultimo, at which
addresses were delivered by Gov. Matthews,
Col. Ben. Wilson. Col Robt. White snd
others. We append the concluding portion
of Gov. Matthews remarks, as published in
the Sundny Leader:
do not intend to attempt to advance our
cause OF our candidate by repeating charges
against the Repubicon candidate. We profit
by an experience in politics if We do not
learn that cruel and unjust charges are often
made. l choose to assume, until the con-
trary is proven, that no man can secure the
nomination of either of the great political
parties who is not a man of ability and in
tegrity. We have, however, presented to the
American people man whose life is as un-
sullied as star, and whose ability and pa.
triotism arc beyond all question His nomi>
nation even has accomplished what a week
ago wos regarded by many as im mpossible. 1t
has rccnncllcd completely. and trust for
ever, the two wings nt the New York Dem @.

sylvauia. 1t has united his support in South
Carolina and Massachusetts. The men who
charged the heights and those who manned
the works of Gettysburg stnod shoulder to
shoulder under his banner, aod like "The
DongIas aud the Percy together met are
confident against a world in arms" The
Union soldier can recall him as he led bis
brigade a: williamsburg. or as he rode down
his line at Gettysburg under shower Of
shot and she'll and received his hundred,h
baptism of Ere. The Southern man can re-
call him when at the close If the war he
proclaimed that the strife was over, thst the
writ OF H06eGs c0Tpus," the right of trial
by jury, the rights OF persons and the rights
OF property must be preserved, that the con-
stitntion was supreme and that the militsry
must forever be subordinate to the civil
power. With such leader and such plat
form is not our success assured? And from
his career we see that
"An good things await
Him Who esres not to be great
Bot as he savts es the State
Not once or twice in this grand country's story
Tue path of duty was tie ray to glory"

nomicaIly managed, so far as there was any
management. a correspondent says:
That it was not worked up, in political
sense, is demonstrated by the fact that dur
ing the week preceding the Convention q
fund OF 81 $50 was raised by Hancock's
frieDds to hire rooms for headquarters aud
pay for printing aud carriage hiIs, and meet
other necessary expenses. That was sIl the
money the Hancock headquarters had, aud
at the end Of the Convention, when all the.
bills were paid, there was sos of it left.
The gentlemen who came hero to take
charge of the Hancock headquarters were
Mr. Atkins, Chairman of the Democratic
State Committee of Vermont, Gen Frauklin
and General Badly Smith. They had two
solid State delegations with them to start
with and few votes in each of several other
States. The two delegations solid for Ham
cock from ths outset were Vermont's aud
Louisiana's.

The New York fDanciers are not only we'll
satisfied with Hancock as a presidential can
didate but are pretty confident that he will
be elected. The following from the Wall
Street Nea0s of the 25th, indicates the tom
per of the street:
"The announcement of the nomination of
Gen. Hancock yesterday gave very general
satisfaction to the leading Democrats in Wall
street. In the Stock Exchange bets were
offered Sl00 to $50 that Hancock would be
elected, and the brokers were very enthusi>
ast'o Messrs BGuvier and Wallace offered
to wager 81 600 on the election Of the DEM
ocratic nominee. r. S. Elliott offered
wager of S5OO to-Sl50 on Hancock's cleo
ton. Mr.. Wormser offered to bet $500 the
same way, and W. l.. Kennedy offered to
wager $3.50 that Hancock would sweep the
State. No bets were taken, but } Il Dill
lon offered to wager that the stock market
would drop from FIVE to ten per cent the day
after Hsucock's election. VIM l. Scott has
teIegraphed an offer to bet S25 600 on the
election of General Hancock"

MORNING APPEAL
TILDEN'S BAR'L.

The leader of the Democracy in the next
campaign will be Sam Tilden, and the battle
cry will be fraud" They have been howl
ing it ever since Hayes took the Presidential
chair and should Tilden be again defeated the
suffering country may expect another 1our
years of it, Tllden is worth about eight mil
lions of dollars and any Democrat worth that
amount of money will never experience the
slightest trouble in securing = nomination
frsm the Bourbons The men who are now
manipulating his campaign conduct the tight
with an eye for the money they can get out OF
the old man. In fact the visual organs of the
Democracy are focused on the yawning bung
hole of that money barrel, just as pigs in a
pen center their observation upon the sour
mash that tumbles into the trough at noon.
So long as Iilden lives no will be a candidate
for Presidential Office, and so long as the
greed of the Democratic party holds spark OF
vital life, there will be no lack of opportunity
for the sage of Grammacy Park to spend his
moneYin vain pursuit of the iga,ts fItuus which
CLEANS and dances ahead of him over the
sluggish anu lTedCHefouS waters Vi IuS pollLl-
cal morass. Ifhe lives long enough, his eight
million dollars will all be transferred from his
exchequer into the pockets of the men who
oil the machinery of ths Democratic parsY
but do not furnish the oil. There was time
when Tilden's alleged grievances found hear
Tag with the people of the Unted States, and
there were many, even in the Republican
party, who were in quandary to which of
the two Presidential candidates had right to
the office. When, however, the cyrher dis
patches in the Florida affair were blazoned be-
fore the people, the halo of glory which is
supposed to shed its radiance from the heads
of martyrs, faded forever from the brow of
Sam Tilden, and left brand upon his fore
head which successive attempts to reach the
highest office in the gift of the people, will
only render more apparent to the world In
spite of the revelations concerning Tilden' 5
cunning and unscrupulousness, the Democratic
press still fall down and worship the bullying
barrel which contains the sinews of hopeless
war. The colapsing of that barrel would be
identical with the fall of the Democracy

Many years ago all lrishman passing by a

ming little thorough bass exercise, thought
1t would be fine fun to get over tho fence and
snatch the bull around the lot by his nose and
crack his hoofs together till the cows came
home, or words to that effect. The idea pleas
ed him so that he lay down on the grass and
rolled around in perfect frenzy of mirth
Then he got up and began to whirl the bull
around. He did not make glittering success
of it. The bull seemed frolicsome enough and
eager to ganbol on the green, but he was more
stalwart than the Irishman, inasmuch that in
about the time required for a lamb to oscllate
his tail the lrshman lit outside the fence
with force and expression. He separated
himself from the sand and gore that chung to

HOYT RErRACTS.

The suit instituted by Assemblyman Com
minis against the Cherry Greek Independent,
has been brought to close by Hoyt making a
full retraction in letter as follows:
1, Cherry Creek, New,
March II, 1889.
H. A. Commins, Esq: Dear Sir; In consid-
Grafton of no more than what | think is due
you as a matter of justice and right, desire
to say that the publications by me-, in the
Cherry Creek Independent about one year ago
the 18th of March, 1872 if my memory is
correct), of a certain article was, az rejecting
apon your character, wholly unsubstantiated
by any facts whatever, and has been, and is,
upon nay part, viewed as having been wrong,
hasty, and wholly uncalled for.
will further say that, from the best of my
knowledge and belief, that the allegations in
said article, as rejecting upon your character,
public or private, were without any founds-
ton, made in a moment when party feeling
ran high, aud now to be regretted when cooler
moments have come.
Against you | have no feelings of animos-
ity, public or private, and hope that, should
the past be forgotten, and We meet in the flu
ture, 1t may be upon terms of friendship
Respectfully, A. V. HoYT
This puts Hoyt in bad light, and the re-
traction comes rather late. Ii Hoyt made
these assertions recklessly, he knew it from
the first, and should have retracted long ago
Instead of doing this he dared Conmins to
come on, and the people who were friendly to
his paper subscribed money for the defense.
Hoyt is either deliberate villfer of character
or has himself sold out to the prosecution and
given the retracton for the price of his per
fdy. Such affairs leave bad odor behind
them and there will be numbers of people
holding the same opinion regarding the matter
now as they did before the rstraction, which
has come rather late in the day to be of much
use to Commins, even if he is wholly innocent
of the charges made against him.
