TORONTO, Dec. 21.-The first issue of a
new paper called the Sun appeared tonight.
Its avowed object is to advocate the an
nexation of Canada to the United States.
In its salutatory it says in part: I'VE
have no hesition in saying that our lack
of progress is entirely due to our unhappy
separation from the republic o. the United
States. and as our faith il that as one OF
the states of the Union we would become
more prosperous than We can as British
colonies alongside the ov~ershadowing
great republic, We shall devote ourselves
to the furtherance of this great mission.
With England we have no quarrel, but
our hearts and energies should be devoted
to improving the condition of this our
own land"

The body has been laid out in the room In

shows the effects of the wasting illness, but
the expression OF the face is placid and

ing. The President, though deeply grief
stricken, is more composed to-day than yes

tions to his Tampany Hall speech last
night, he said: Il am glad your were pleased
and especially with that part in which
paid my respects TO that venomous class of
political bypocrites and mountebanks which
seems TO crop out in Pennsylvania as we'll
as in other states. | cannot sufficiently en-
phasize in words my ontempt for this class
OF political renegades, aud as we'll for NAL
contents within a party.
"If MIR. McVeagh were an honest man, as
he now claims to be, be would not have
waited for sixteen years to give utter
ance TO his belief that Tilden
was honestly elected in 1876 Know
ing that fact, as he alleges. and
snppressing 1t all these years while he was
the bene fclary OF party favor, clearly shows
TO my mind he is not of the class of persons
the Democratic party wants or should fol-
low.
The Democratic party and certainly sound
Democrats do not need a set of egotistical,
Self-lauding upstairs to undertake to tel.
them what to do. Every Democrat had
made up his mind in November 1876 that
Tilden carried a majority of the electoral
vote, and this MacVeagb was one of the
people who joined in the great political theft.
The Democratic party has prospered without
him, and the mess this vain glorious per-
son has already made will 90 the Demo-
cratic party more injury than good Our
Irish friends are already in arms, and the
more he explains the more he condemns h i'm
self He should be repudiated by the party
for its own sslf-respect. Ii does not need
him aud should not recognize him by listen
ing TO his harrsngues. Itis not Democracy"

Depew spoke this evening at the Academy
of Music under the auspices of the Union
League Club to an audience that taxed the
building to its greatest capacity. The
speech was an Grafton in favor of protection
and the PRINCIPLES Of the Republican party.
In the course of his address Mr.. Depew
said:
"The most impressive sight / ever saw
was the gathering of 10000 people in
one building during the Chicago Colum-
bian dedication. | saw million or two,
more or less, on my way to the building,
and all seemed happy and prosperous. l
saw no beggars; met no rags; everything
indicated that they represented a happy
people and a phenomenally prosperous
country. And in that building / listened
TO the abltst Republican speech | ever
heard delivered. by Henry Watterson Of
Kentucky. Mr.. Watterson is the aDlest
Democrat in the country today and intro
duced the free trade plank OF the Chicago
platform. Yet WatteTson, in the glowing
oratory of the South. described the phenom-
email growth and prosperity of the country
since the civil war. 1t was proud picture
of proud people celebrating proud event
and calling upon the world 10 look upon
their DrOsDority."
