one member from each state and terri tory Of the country, and one from the district of Columbia, now come as the accredited organ Of ,Eat convention tO give you formal notice of the nOmina- ton and to request your acceptance thereof. The nomination of Lincoln disappointed so many hopes and over- threw so many cherished ambitions that for short time dissatisfaction threat ened an open revolt. Discomfort was SO pronounced as to impel large masses of the party to organize in opposition of its nominees. For many weeks after the nomination of Garfield iu 1880 de- feat seemed inevitable. In each case the sh, ok of disappointment was fol- lowed by sober, second thought. indi- vldual preferences gradually yielded 10 the convictions of public duty. Prompt ings of patriotism finally rose superior to lrritations and animOsities. Our party in every trial has grown stronger in the face of threatened dan ger. In rendering you the nomination 1t gives us pleasure tO remember those great measures which furnished the cause for party congratulations by the convention at Chicago, and which are now crystalized into the legislation of the country. Measures which have strengthened and diGnitied the nation, and while they elevated and advanced the people have at sll times and on all proper occasions received your earnest and valuable sc2pOrt.'
