reviewing the manner Of Hancock's IS
nomination, concludes that ii is a
worthy one. which will unite the
democracy and render the canvass on
both sides respectable.
The Alta gives a sketch of Hancock IS
career. and closes by saying the time
has not yet arrived for throwing mud.
At present we have no mud on hand
and do not propose to use any. 1t would
be n great honor TO the American name
could the present canvass be conducted
with clean hands on all sides.

cession as could safely be made to the
southern brigadiers with any hope Of
carrying the election, as being ignorant
Of political affairs, he will be mere
tool In the hands of the southern

the pledge given 10y Gladstone that he
(Gladstone) would support as vote Of

marched In search of the enemy, and
In the evening encamped at a distance
OF about two leagues and half from
the position occupied BY the allied ar
mics. Atslx O'Clock on the following
morning We renewed the march, and at
seven O'Clock our artillery opened FIRE
on the advance of the enemy; the artil-
iery ON the other side replying TO our
fire. The fire of the artillery was sus-
tained until IL O'Clock, at which hour
our infantry advanced and general
combat commenced. The enemy made
a strong and tenacious resistance, but
In spite Of this, three hours later our
valiant soldiers took possession Of the
formidable position occupied by the
enemy. From this moment the enemy
dispersed, flying away in all directions,
and few hours later we took posses
sion OF Tacna. Our losses are heavy,

into the hands of the enemy. Col.
Comacho. he who lately initiated the
revolution in Bolivia against Gen.

The action was more or less an artillery
fight, in which the great superiority OF
the Chilians has always been admitted.
The infantry fight which followed was
OF short duration, as the main body of
the Gillian force was sent forward to
tho attack, and was followed closely by
the reserve composed OF four crack
regiments, 50 that the allies brake and
run in all directions.

The ticket is built TO run and win. 1t

stronger ticket, an abler-one or q more

nation was In the highest spontaneous.
