Itanium as Chair man. An Intimation tliatGen. Garflelcl'H letter of Acceptance IIHH Made ItH Ap liearance. LETTEIt TO HANCOCK. July 13,1880.—To (Jen. Hancock—BIB —The national convention of the demo cratic party, which assembled at Cincin nati on the 22d of last month, unani mously nominated you as their candidate for president of the United States. Wo have been directed to inform you of your nomination for this exalted trust, and request your acceptance In ac cordance with the uniform custom of the democratic party the convention have announced their views on the important issues which are before the country in a series of resolutions, to which we in vite your attention. The resolutions embody the general principles upon which the democratic party demand that the government shall be conducted, and they also emphatically condemn the maladministration by the party in power, its crimes against the constitution and especially against the right of the people to choose and instal their president, which have wrought so much injury aud dishonor to our country. That which chiefly inspired your nomination was the fact that you had conspicuously recognized and exem plified the yearning of tffe American people for reconciliation and brotherhood under the shield of the constitution,with all its jealous care and guarantees for the rights of states. Your nomination was not made alone because in the midst of arms you illustrated the highest quali ties of the soldier, but because when the war had ended, and when in recognition of your courage and fidelity you were placed in command of apart of the un ion undergoing the process of restora tion, and while you were thus clothed with absolute power, you used it not to subvert but to sustain the civil laws and the rights they were established to pro tect. Your fidelity to those principles manifested in important trusts hereto fore confided to your care, gives proof that they will control your government and assures the country that our indissoluble union of indestructible states and the constitution with its wise distribution of power and regard for federal authorities, will not sutler at your hands that you will maintain the subordination of the mili tary to the civil power, and will accom plish the purification of the public ser vice, and especially that the government which we love will be free from reproach or Btain of sectional agitation or malice in any shape or form. .Rejoicing in com mon with the masses of the American people upon the bright promise for the future of our country, we wish also to ex press to you personally the assurance of general esteem and confidence which huve summoned you to this high duty, and will aid you in its performance. Your fellow citizens. JOHN W. STEVENSON, President of the Convention. NICHOLAS M. BELL, Secretary. LETTER TO ENGLISH. To Hon. H'. 11. English—DEAR SIR —By direction of the democratic nation al convention which assembled at Cin cinnati June 22nd last, it becomes our pleasant duty to notify you that you were unanimously nominated by that body for the office of vice president of the United States. Your large experi ence in affairs of government, your able discharge of the many trusts committed to your hands, your steadfast devotion to democratic principles, and the upright ness of your private character, give as surance to the democracy that yon are worthy and well quailitied to perform the duties of that high position, and commended you to them for the nomina tion, which they conferred, while your personal qualities and your public services well merited this honor. The notion of the convention was no doubt designed not only to indicate their up preciation of yourself but as well to at tett their urofound respect for the de mocracy of Indiana, your native state, with whose manly struggles you have been so strongly identified, and in whose glorious achievements you have shared. The convention set forth its views upon the leading political issues which are now before the people in a series of resolu tions, a copy of which wo have the honor uope tnat these views may meet with your approbation and that you will accept the nomination which is now tendered you. With sentiments of high esteem, we are, respectfully, JOHN W. STEVENS, President. NICHOLAS M. BELL. Secretary of the Convention. FOREIGN. CommutatioiiK of Sentences.
