cption of one or Two who were not

opinions of any OF them and, under
ook the task merely as an expert.

:iiy, believing them TO DC represen-
lative men of the community, We
give below their answers.nuai res ia
Judge n 7. Petree ;-Bayard is my
first choice, and Seymour next. Am
afraid Tilden can't carry New York.
r W., Henry;-Amin favor Of Til!
den as the most available man and
further think he did nothing wrong
in adopting the pacific measures
which he did when counted out. 1t

Jas. d. Hays;-Hancoek, is my
first choice, but Tidcp seems to be the
coming man. j can see nothing OBJ
jectionable in his past record, think

peirated in the seating of Hayes, and
ifhc is the mani will cherfully sup
port him. ,.sg, \ INK. M 80, h
