New York, 24.-The San had lead
ing editorial, the last words whereof are:
Democrats at Cincinnati, stand by Til
den and the eternal principles of free
dom which he personifes.
The Sun. 10 another article, says: Mr..
Weed, In all his long life filed with great
experience, never spoke truer words:
Either tie democrats must give up the
fraud issue or nominate Tilden," and if
the democrats do not nominate Tilden
they do relinquish the fraud issue, the
strength of their canvass. Bullheaded
rs he is, even John Kelly ought to have
sense enough to perceive this. Tilden's
principle and victory, or somebody else,
no issue and defeat. Which? Answer,
Cincinnati.

the reporter heartily by the hand, and
in response to his congratulations said:
Indeed, have nothing 10 say at pres

added, "You know it might all be q
However,. have received

A STRONG TICKET.
Columbus, O., 24.-The news of Han
cocks nomination was received by n
large crowd assembled in front of the
w estern Union Telegraph Company.
Dispatches of late last night had pre-
pared the people here for this result, and
a general season of congratulation fol-

was the fir choice of any number of
democrats here, and his nomination is
ooke1 upon as a fortunate escape from
various complications, and strong one
IN many respects. Republicans, as a
rule, would have preferred ilden's
lomina alton, and eOncede that with Han
cock as leader Of the opposition, the
coming campaign means the hardest .
Kind of hard work. Republicans and
democrats, with very few exceptions,
admit that the ticket nominated to-day
It Cincinnati is strong and popular.

Chicago, 24.-The Journal says:

Extraordinary fact of all and one which

heart or his head is that he boasts not
