Popular Enthusiasm for Hancock
Boston Herald.


II one was to take a tour among the
common people ia and around New
York he would tnd it for Hancock
from circumference 70 centre. The
thoughtful aud observing, as well ao
tho ignorant and enthusiastic, insist
that Le will carry the State. The
cheers which 20 Up from the Coney is
land boats when they pass the huge
collar box fortress on Governor Is
lad are something Of 40 indication of
'be popular feeling. No less 50 is the
fact that one Of the medallion manufac-
lures in New York is selling thou
saud Of hi, little Hancock miniatures
al over the COUNTRY where he sells IA
hundred of Garfield And every
where YOU 60 there are like indication
OF the Hancock boom Whether it CA
tend into the rnral districts or not |
Am unaoie 10 say. but " 10 very prcva
lent in the metropolis and suburbs.
Of course there has not yet been Il full
healing up of the wounds of Tammany.
but fancy that the time has come
when political BOSSES, even in New
York, cease to he Il dreaded power.
just how John Kelly. or any other of
his kiud, can stem tie Hancock stream
is not clear to an Impartial observer
The fact that such an uncompromis-
ing Tammany man US Augustus
Schcll was a visitor TO the home OF
such foe to the wiswam Orsaniza-
ton as Mr.. Tildcn. the other day,
goes to show that the prolonging Of
the breach in the New York Democ-
racy is not very promising.

How very true ! While we believe
that Chinese Immigrants have been of
very little benefit to this country, aud

does not accord with our boast that
''thc United States is an asylum for
the oppressed Of all nations" We
should add that this big asylum is
open only to those who are likely to

The Carriers Address.

! Oh, Christmas! merry Christmas,
/ Do we welcome YOU once more,
! Like Il tidal wave of sunshine
/ Upon winters cherries shore.
Liyhting the cherries cabin,
Frightening the deariest home,
Resting the weary-hearted,
For this has Christmas come,
The story that the Prophets told
Is echoing once again
Through all Jrdea's verdant hills,
And DER each fertile plain.
1t murmurs in the ripping waves,
And moves that sacred sea
Whose name TO all the world is known,
The famed fair Galilee.
HozanHahs in the highest"
Rejoicing angels sing
! AS when OF old the Magi came
To adore their Savior. King.
Centuries have rolled between
What is now, and what has been
Yet the Christ Child bringeth still
Peace on earth, 70 men good will.
And in decorated churches,
Af;r that anthem swells,
While the sweet and sacred ECHO
Is pulsing in the bells
That throb and chime SO glecfully
And ring from shore to shore,
That song so dear, so DID, so new,
OF Christmas come once more
And when we eallthe Waterman
TO tell IS Of the night"
The anxious soul is questioning,
VIII the New Year he bright
And .piri; answers Never fear
What the coming year viii bring TO you,
If your duty ever YOU bravely do.
BE honest and faithful; be kind and true
And the New Year, tcnderly smiling,
Will brighten the sad souls gloom, =
Till the hearts and the hopes that langIish
Again shall bourgeon and bloom.
There's promise that never faileth, -
When the burdens of earth are laid down.
1t says "well done" to the faithful,
For your Cross is given Crown.
What, says the Past to thee, Pilgrim,
For the evil that thou hast done?
Come forth from thy moral darkness,
To walk in the light of the sun.
And the trumpet note Of the Present
Says ACT, AND EVER ADVANCE
To those that onward and upward
Are turning their earnest glance
Let good purpose each effort ennoblc,
Droop not if some struggles are vain,
And do thy work firmly and bravely,
Believing that labor is gain.
The voice of the age is for Progress,
And the light DER that iar-rising slope,
Is the fringe of the Futures banner
That CLEANS with the watchword Hope
OF the worlds varied fertile resources,
That stimulate thrift and success,
The greatest lever Of Progress,
And its ruling power, is the PRLss.
To our dear and time-honored JoUENAL
All welcomes and blessings belong;
And while giving reward to merit,
Pay Me Cdrrier Boy for his sang.
