Mr.. EDITOR:-Permit me to reply
through your paper. to numerous inquiries
regarding my views of what is termed "a
peoples ticket recently nominated and
supported, largely, by the Democratic
party.
This is of course the policy of all parties
which are in the minority.
Now, as one who was candidate in the
Republican Convention, | feel ii is not
only my duty as Republican. but duty
owe to my political friends who support
ed me both in and out of the Convention,
to make this public statement; that
cannot in any way sympathize with, or
support this independent movement
Though probably counted out by the
genius Of one Secretary, attesied by the
silent eloquence of another; yet. takinglt
all in all, believe the convention was as
fair and just as conventions usually are:
tket the men who were nominated were
representative men, fully equaling the oft
repeated standard of the author of the
Declaration; and that as Republicans they
are worthy of and entitled To our unquali.
fled support. No great political or ecclesi
astical party ever represented the eminent
ed the eminent morality of their times,
only the ordinary. The stream will not
ilsc niS hti liian IL soHitc. lJlsappOlnt-
ed will they ever be who expect otherwise.
Yet to-day, as through all it's history, the
Republican party challenges comparison
With any considerable party of the age,
or the ages
While it is true. despite the clatter of
little minds, to\pe contrary. that no great
question divides the parties, such rs has
moulded and changed the opinions and
destiny of mankind in all the past. and if
such as will continue to, in all the future
Still the Republican party of my country
has history which will be an inspiration
to freedom to the latest times. II has
made shining record across the century
WHICH will make il impossible To write the
histNry of liberty and leave out And as
one whose youth was in that auspicious
day when II was in death grarple with
traitors, one of those crises in the history
of nations which come but seldom
learned to love that party. then AS now.
so true To the best and highest interests OF
the Republic.
And now let me say To my Republican
friends, who may be hesitating regarding
the support of this new ticket, STAY HY
YOUR PARTY AND TICKET and share and re
joice in it's triumphs; for cannot but
think il represents our best interests. Mr.
| Macaulay tells US that banished cavalier
exulted with national pride as they bcheld

the best chivalry of France. Let us
whose expectations were not realized by
the convention, take these words oi

called Mother Setgei's Cuyotioe
Syrup, saying it was genuine and
honest, and often cured when every
thing else had failed. He bought
q bottle of chemist in Pimlico, and
began using it according to the di-
rections. He did this without faith
or hope, and the public, may there
fore judge of his surprise and plea
sure when after taking a few doses
he felt great relief. He could eat
better; his food distressed him less (;
the symptoms we have named abated |;
the dark spots which had foated
before his eyes like smuts of SCOT,
gradually disappeared, and his
strength increased. Before this
time his knees would knock together
whenever he tried to walk. So eu-
couraged vas he now that he kept
on using Mother Seigel's Curdtivo
Syrup until it ended in completely
curing him.
In speaking of his wonderful re-
covery Mr.. Richold says it made
him think of poor Robinson Crusoe,
and his deliverance from captivity
on his island in the sea- and added,
"But for Mother Seigel's Curative
Syrup the grass would now be
growing over my grave.
Our readers can rest assured of
of the strict truth of all the state
ments in this most remarkable case,
as Mr.. Richold (now residing at
Swiss Cottage, Walton on-the-Naze)
belongs to one of the Oldest and
most respected families in the beau
tiful village of Long Melford,
Suffolk, and his personal character
is attested by so high an authority
as the Rev. G. j. Martyr, rector
of that parish, besides other excel
lent names. We have deemed the
case of such Importance to the pub
lie as to justify us in giving this
short account of it in our columns.
