his paper, freeing it from the con.

hao suuuhi huu III many quarters
was received with incredulity.-
The news, that the brave and
s!aunch old heart, that has sustain
ed aud sent the life blood rushing
through the veins Of the Democrat.
ic,psrty in many a trying hour,
had suddenly failed, was put aside
as ahoax. The country had scarce.
ly ceased reading a letter Of advice
to Congress, from the venerable
leader, written with a mind Of pres
tine vigor and clearness, when the
news flashed before its eyes that
death had palsied the writer's
hand and snatched from the conn.
try one Of its greatest and grandes!
men.
II cannot be said that he left his
LIES work unfinished, though
through the moot gigantic fraud Of
the country's history, was taken
from him the means Of rounding
and consummating hisgreat career.
But even this circumstance has
gained him the sympathy of his
enemies, whose hands were IN.
stained by participation in theout.
rage and endeared him a hundred
fold TO his country's heart. That
dark page in our history is now
brought wildly to mind and Bit.
ter regret and renewed condemna.
tion come from all sides. 1t was a
foul blow that struck from his hand
a we'll earned triumph which he
was too old ever again to regain.
In Mr.. Tilden's death the coun-
try loses one who was a friend to it
in its greatest need, a loyal and pa
triotic supporter from loyalty and
patriotism alone. But the State of
New York loses even more than
this, it loses a benevolent and wise
parent, who single handed, battled
for its rights and overthrow the
most fragrant system of public
fraud in the history Of the United
States.
For the past ten years Of his life
Mr.. Tilden had lived in quiet and
seClusion at his beautiful home in
New York State, but ever keeping
a watChful and iatherly eye upon
his country. His advice upon pub
lie measures has ever been readily
and modestly given when sought
and up to the hour Of his death his
word has been weighty in the coun'
ellis Of the nation.
The Democratic party which he
loved so well and so truly has lost
a tower Of moral strength and down
to the bottom of every Democratic
heart bitter regret and sadness will
reign, The party had unbouhded
confidence in his wisdom and re.
garded his word as prophetic and
will mourn him Us o wise and Low.
ing father. Long, in our hearts,
will the memory of this grand and
noble old man be kept fresh aud
green, and in the generations to
come, when the bitterness Of q rank
party strife, intensified by recol
leCtiOnS and hates Of a great inter
necine war, is forgotten, the i'm.
partial historian will accord the de.
ceased statesman, not only the
greatness which is his, but also the
indubitablo right to the title of
Chief Magistrate of the United
States for the term TO which he
was elected. Already, 30 great has
been the change in the public
mind since Mr.. Tilden's election,
that the quotation below from the
