THE DEMOCRATIC LETTER
OF ACCEPTANCE.

If objection against General Han
cocks candidacy on the score of his un-
defined views on all the questions at is
sue between the Republican and the
Democratic parties held good before the
appearance of his letter of acceptance.
certainly those objections have not been
removed or materially changed by any
expressions of views contained in the
letter now before the public. 1t is a
very decorous epistle, and has the mer-
it and advantage of brevity. The DEM
ocratic party record is SO winding, it
has turned SO many sharp corners dur
ing the past twenty years. it is always
liable to cross its own track, like the
crooked railroad in Pennsylvania, where
the locomotive, in rounding sharp
curve, ran into the rear car Of its own
train. General Hancock, in his letter
of acceptance, endorses the validity OF
the constitutional amendments !; but in
1868 he wrote a letter endorsing the
Democratic platform which characterize
ed these amendment as ''usurpations,
unconstitutional, revolutionary and
void" The convention which made
this mild declaration gave General Han.
cock one hundred and .thirty-seven votes
as Democratic candidate for the presi
dency. He now speaks Of these amend
ments as "inviolabIe." Here the Dem
ocratic locomotive smashes point blanl
into one of the later cars of the Demo
cratic train. A few feeble puffs arr
made about "the rights of the people,
.'civil service REFORM" etc., but steam
has dropped to very low pressure, ant
the machine finally comes to stand
still. Mr. English starts out with Gu
logy on General Hancock, INDUCES in
TRADE of abuse about federal oficehold
ers, takes fright. at the spook of
"strong government" speaks few CON
monplace words for "sound currenc
of honest money" deprecates Chimes
immigration, and winds up with pr.
dieting the success of the Democrat
ticket. AS the New York Tribune pc
tinently remarks. disappointed Dem

The New York Tablet, one of the
leading Catholic papers in the country
in the course of along editorial gives
Irishmen the following pertinent advice:
eve hear so much of this clap-trap,
political gush about all the Democratic
party has done for the Irish that we must,
in all sincerity, state that it has compar
atively done nothing, for without the
Irish votes the Democratic party would
soon cease to exist. In political sense
the Democratic party owes us everything,
the Republicans nothing; yet, in all truth
fitness, it must be said that we have got
a decenter recognition from the latter
Republicans give nominations and office
to Irishmen, they do so as reward of
merit and responsibility, while the Dem
ocratic leaders, regardless of the moral
or social standing of parties, are influence
ed in their choice solely by the nominees
| power in controlling the votes of the bar
room and rowdy element. If we go
through the government offices in Wash
ington, or the post office and custom
house in New York, we will find that a
large percentage of the officials and en-
| ployees are Irish, and that they are all
men of education sobriety and intelli-
gence. While firmly holding
that the recognition of any nationality
should never be permitted to interfere
with the constitution or the rights OF
Americans, we are of opinion that indie
pendence of action and good organiZa.
ton are necessary among our Irish citi
Zens, in order to secure the influence anC
privileges to which they are entitled.
The Germans are consolidated by socie
ties, and are less subject than the Irisl
to party influences. They are just a.
ready to vote for Republican as Dem
ocrat if his record entities him to thei
support. On this account their friend
ship is courted by both parties, and thei
+ influence is such that they have not onl
, elected their own countrymen to tn
highest offices in the state, but have ais
a native born German in the cabinet a
Washington. If the Irish were more il
dependent of party and showed more re
D spect for themselves by supporting goo
( and worthy candidates for office, no maj
ter by whom nominated, in preference t
a political hacks and professional polite
ans, they would soon command respet
and influence with both parties.

STRONG TALK FROM
GARFIELD,

The first speech that General Garfield
made in the House was in reply to Hon.
Alexander Long of Cincinnati, who ad-
vocated the recognition of the Southern
Confederacy. Garfield began his reply.
to Long by saying he was reminded of
two characters connected with the Rev.
olution. The first was Lord Fairfax,
who felt it his duty to to 60 with the
mother country. and Benedict Arnold,
who was traitor to his country's cause.
Lee was Lord Fairfax and went with
his State. Continuing, he said
"But now, when tens of thousands of
brave souls have gone up to God under
the shades of the flag; when thousands
more, MANNED and shattered in the con-
test, are sadly waiting the delivcrance
of death; now, when three years of ter.
rife warfare have ragged over us, when
armies have pushed the rebellion back
over mountains and rivers and crowded
it into narrow limits until roll of fire
girds it; now, when the uplifted hand
of a magnetic people is about to hurl tn,
bolts of conquering power upon the Re
bellion now, in the quiet of this hall
hatched in the lowest depths of a SINH

REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN
MANUAL.

A Republican Manual for the cam
paign of 1880, is announced as in print
and very soon to be issued. 1t is written
by Mr.. E. V. Smalley, long known as a
brilliant newspaper correspondent, and
for many years leading editorial writer
on the Neto York Tribune. Leading
features of the book, will of course be
biographies of the candidates. 1t will be
the most authoritative and most complete
sketch of General Garfield which will ap-
pear. Mr.. Smalley was at one time the
Generals private secretary, and has been
his intimate friend during the whole of
his public career, and is therefore quail
fed by special advantages as well as by
talent and experience for the task under
taken.
s'Garfield as an Orator and as States
man" is a special department, containing
extracts from the Generals most celebra-
ted speeches, upon topics of the greatest
interest in the present campaign and
representing the best efforts of brilliant
scholar, an orator of rare power, and a
statesman of consummate tact and skill
it will be read with great interest. Ano-
ther department, not only of great pre-
sent interest, but of permanent value, is
full history of the republican party, its
principles, STRUGGLES and victories, with
important statistical tables, particularly
valuable for reference in political cam
paigns.
1t is book which earnest republicans
will delight in, and find the best of all
| arsenals from which to draw ammunition
for campaign use; book which the indie

THE MONTREAL TUNNEL,

Yesterday, Hon. Bradley Barlow and
Mr.. A. B. Chaffee of the Southeastern
railway. Mr.. SENEGAL, general superin-
tendent of the Quebec, Montreal, Otta-
wa & Occidental railway. (known as the
North Shore road,) and Mr.. Walter
Stanley. the Dominion government en-
gineer, whose name is inseparably link
ed to fame as the successful constructor
of the Hoosac tunnel under the st. Law
renee from Longueuil to Hochelaga. that
will connect the northern and southern
systems of roads and bring Montreal
and the West into new and better con-
nections with New York and Boston.
Mr.. Stanley remarked that Nature SEEM
ed to have done all that the most ex-
acting engineer could desire to make
the project feasible and the work per-
manent. The south shore is fat and
the approach may be made as easy as
possible, while the land damage will be
very light. The river is shallow and
the bottom of rock the entire distance
across. The northern bank rises abrupt
| ly, but about half mile back de-
cends into a. broad valley, which is ad-
mirably suited to the opening of the
tunnel and to connections with the North
Shore road and for the city business.
Mr.. Stanley thinks the roof of the tun.
mel would not need to be more than
/ twenty feet thick, if the rock proves
good all the way. and that by working
from both ends the tunnel could be com
pleted within two years and a half
He says the conditions are all SO favor
able, not only for the success of th,
work, but for an enormous volume O
business to pour through it as soon a
the government railway shall be extend
ed west to the Sault st. Marie, tina
nothing would please him better than t
be connected with the undertaking. i
fact many prominent Canadians are be
ginning to regard it as great nations
work, which cannot be long delayed
