lter of Henry Ward necbr.
It has been very Industriously circulated
through th Democratic newspapers, and other
channels, that Mr, Uceeher was In favor or
Judge Chase for President.
By the following letter, which thla gentle
man aenda to th Boatoa DUg Atvtrttter, It
will be seen bow much truth there le tn the
report. He supports Urant and Colfax.
Mr, Deecher aaya:
" I left Brooklyn on Monday. July 0, but not
before the HtM tiaai pubtisnef, tnal i had, on
Sunday morning. In a political sermon, come
out for Chase fur the Presidency, and against
Oraat, and I have seen the story everyday
since racing through thepapere. There le not
a word of truth In It, The eermon wae not
G oil ileal, and It made no allusion cither to
'rant or Chase. Tbe application of some of
lte paragraphs, In cither direction, waa the
work of the reporter or the Wortd not mine.
"I bar never been a Chase man. I have for
years, ae a leader In publlo affairs, deemed
film, Ilk his greenbacks, ae promising more on
the face than ther are worth In gold. Whllo
the New York Independent wae lauding him aa
a demigod, and the New York 7Vfovn wae
us I tiff ills name to obscure the prospects of
Urant, 1 hetrtlly and openly disagreed with
both or them, for I thoroughly liked Urant and
thoroughly distrusted Chase. Ho le a splendid
man to look upon.hut a poor man to lean upon.
Ambition lifts some men toward things nobla
and good; makes them largo and generous.
Other men's ambition blure the sharp lines and
distinctions between right and wrong, and
leavca them, In the eagernesaof over selflsh
desires, to become nprer of bad men. I have
for years felt that Mr. Ohase'a ambition was
consuming th better elements or his nature.
"I have liked a rant from the first holld, un
pretentious, straight for ward, apt to succeed
and not spoiled by auoeeaa, wise In discerning
men, skilful In using them, with the rare gift
(which Washington had In an eminent degree)
of wisdom In getting wisdom from other men's
counsels I confidently anticipate, that great
asbls military success has been, he will here
after be known even more favorably for the
wisdom of his civil administration.
"The seven fold humiliations and recanta
tions through whloh Chase was required to go
for a Democratic nomination on! to see tho
smiling .Seymour looking benignly down upon
hie lost estate, has no parallel except In the
Immortal history or Reintk Fuchi. There will
now be no third candidate between Orant and
eymour. It will be a fair fight between
rugged honesty and plausible craft
