There is no depreciation in the quality Of
the speeches which General Harrison has been
making so continuously since his nomination.
His address to his old regimental comrades on
Thursday was of the highest order 1t was
simple in manner, elevated in thought, en-
inently fitted for the occasion, and. though
TO all appearance the spontaneous utterance Of
the moment, admirable in literary form. The
same qualities mark his speech yesterday to a
company Of veterans, headed by Governor
Rusll, Of Wisconsin. The remarkable series
of speeches that the Republican candidate has
made is one Of the significant features Of the
Presidential campaign. They have been wide
" read: and no one can read them without
increased respect for their author.
Mr.. Depew talks entertainingly and in
etruclyey on a large variety Of topics, as is
natural for so accomplished a traveller and so
acute an observer. The most interesting part
Of the interview elsewhere reported to most
readers will probably be his remarks upon
American politics as seen by English eyes. He
saws that there exists in England a most
exaggerated idea Of Mr.. Cleyelands ability,
craftsmanship and courage" The Cleveland
vorshippers are a curious and unworthy sect.
but happily in this country they are losing in
numbers and in ardor. The President has no
legal residence in the United States, and it
would not be strange if, after the 4th Of
next March, he should be strongly tempted
to make a new home among his English friends.
II was to be expected, after Warner Mil
ler's Enthusiastically outspoken cnunciatiOn of
his attitude on the question Of High License,
that Governor Hill would feel called upon to
explain and justify his own course In dealing
with temperance legislation. The Governor
opened his campaign last night az Oswego, and
devoted a large part of his speech to this sub
feet He insisted at the outset that the excise
question is not necessarily political question
Who made it a political question, we should
like to know, if il was not Governor Hill and
the Democrats in the Legislature, who have
arIayed themselves in an almost unbroken
phalanx across the path Of High License? Mr.
Hill will probably have little difficulty in con-
vincing the grog-shop keepers, among whom
he finds his chief support, that his yetocS Of
the several excellent measures laid before him
were animated by the noblest and purest mo-
tives But there is no need Of convincing
them. They arc for him anyway, and will |
stand by him through thick and thin. lie will |
find il harder task to convince the reputable |
members of his party of the righteousness Of
bis course
1t was characteristic of the man placed by
MAYOR Hewitt at the head Of the Board of |
