To the 'FRONT.'

From the New York Mail and Express.
The Republican party has named another
President for the people, and grandly and
pliriotcally performed again a mission in
which it has never failed With the din Of
battle in Oregon aud Rhode Island. still
heard throughout the land, there can be no
question Of the way the people are turning
for wise and honest government, and the
maintenance Of those principles upon which
the prosperity if not the life Of the nation
depends Thee are distinctly and unequiv-
ocslIy set forth in the platform declarations
Of the convention, and are emphasized aud

Despite the manifest advantages that rest
in great national contest with party
whose purposes and policies are always
in touch with the peoples desiie-never
more 50 than to-day-the fact Is not 10 be
los. sight OF that We have arrayed against Us
an army that is generated and controlled by
men whose successes are won from despera-
iion and in open defiance Of popular rights
or wishes
The people Of this State have recently had
a never-to-be-forsoten illustration Of this,
and Of the endless train Of evils that
have followed the accomplishment Of demo-
cratic Vaccinations. Their stolen control
has been used unscrupulously and unblush-
ingly for the perpetuation Of their power. 50
that to-day the elective franchise in the EN-
pire State is At the mercy Of the marauders
whose shameful acts alone made possible
democratic Legislature last winter.
This fact the Republicans must prepare to
face and overcome. There is but one way to
do il aud that is to Start into the battle as
one man-leaying behind aud entirely for
getting the riyalries OF faction OF the clashes
Of individual ambitions. This;s one ofthe
times when thepatriotism OF the true-blue
Republican Is put to the test, and when no
man can or should seek a greater honor than
the opportunity to answer Present r. 10 the
party roil call whenever and wherever his
duty and a.aliy demand it.
Within q few hours the delegates viii
have returned to their homes. their mission

With open arIs and cordial greetings. and
welcomed back with hearty enthusiasm.
No matter what our pseiilections or hopes
may have been. NJ matter whether the
result acco7ds with our own individual
judmcator not, the collective wisdom OF
the party has given rs ticket and a plat
form Of which We may vel be prond and
let Us faess each Of onr representatives, on his

AFTER an animated contest in which
the merits Of every name mentioned re-
ceived frank and unfetteTed considera-

the Republican party. The contest nov

Harrison is on all the great achievements
