as follows: "Mr. Blaine, your
nomination for the office OF President of
the United States by the National Re-
publican Convention recently assembled
at Chicago, Is already known to you.
The gentlemen lefore you, constituting
the committee composed of one member
from each State and Territory of the
country and one from the District of
Columbia, now come as the accredited
organ of that Convention to give
YOU formal notice of your nomination
aud TO request your acceptance thereof.
The nomination of Lincoln disappointed
so many hopes and overthrow so many
cherished ambitions that for short time
dissatisfaction threatened to have risen
in open revolt, in discomfort so pro.
neunced as to impel large masses of the
party to organize in opposition of it
To nominees for many weeks after the
nomination OF Garfield in so defeat
seemed inevitable. In each case
the shock of disappointment fol
lowed by sober second though
individual preference gradually yielded
to convictions of public duty. Prompt
ings of patriotism finally rose superior
to irritations and animosities of our part,
which in every trial has grown stronge
in the face of the threatened danger. III
rendering you the nomination it give
us pleasure to remember those grea
measures which furnished the caas
for party congratulations by the lat
Convention at Chicago and which are nov
crystalized into legislation of cur coun
try, measures which have Strengthens
and digni6ed the nation, and while the!
elevated and advanced the people hav
at all times and on all proper occasion
received your earnest and valuable SUI
port.
During the reading Mr.. Blaine stoo
with folded arms and attentive face, h
acceptance was brief and to the point
He spoke in clear and impressive voice
thanking the party for the great hone
done him and pledging himself to do h
duty. He stated that hereafter mor
formal acceptance would be given TIL
public. In closing he welcomed the con
mittee to his home and to the State {
Maine.
