SAM'L. J. TILDEN'S LETTER
HE
DECLINES TO ENTER THE
PRESIDENTIAL RACE.
He Speaks Like a Patriot bat Advan
cing Years and Increasing Infirmi
ties Admonish Him that He has not
Now the Strength to Enter Upon the
Grand Work of Reform.
New York, June 11.- The following
from Samuel J. Tilden has been given
to the Associated Press :
New York, June 10, 1884.
To Daniel Manning, Chairman of
the Democratic State Committee of
New York:
In my letter of June 18, 1880, ad
dressed to the delegates from the
State of New York to the Democratic
national convention, I said : "Having
now borne faithfully my full share of
the labor and care in the public
service, and wearing marks of its
burdens, I desire nothing so much as
an honorable discharge. I wish to
lay down the honors and toils of even
quasi party leadership and to seek
the repose of private life. In renoun
cing the renomination for the Presi
dency, I do so with no doubt in my
mind as to the vote of the State of
New York or of the United States,
but because I believe that it is a
renunciation of an election to the
Presidency. To those who think my
renomination and re-election indis
pensable to an effectual vindication of
the right of the people to elect their
rulers, violated in my person, I have
accorded as long a reserve of my
decision as is possible, but I cannot
overcome my repugnance to enter
into a new engagement which in
volves four years of ceaseless toil.
The dignity of the Presidential office is
above personal ambition, but it cre
ates in me no illusion. Its value is
as a great power for good to the coun
try, I said four years ago in accept
ing the nomination. Knowing as I do,
therefore, from fresh experience, how
great the difference is between glid
ing through an official routine and
working out a reform of systems and
policies, it is impossible tor me to
contemplate what needs to be done
in the Federal administration
without an anxious sense of the diffi
culties of the undertaking.
If summoned by the suffeagesof my
countrymen to attempt this work, I
shall endeavor, with God's help, to
be the efficient instrument of their
will. Such a work of renovation after
many years of misrule, such reform
of &ystems and policies to which I
would cheerfully have sacrificed all
that remained to me, of health, and
life is now, I fear, beyond my
strength. My purpose to withdraw
from further public service, and the
grounds of it were at that time well
known to you and to others, and when
at Cincinnati, though respecting my
wishes yourself, you communicated
to me an appeal from many valued
friends to relinquish that purpose, I
reiterated my determination uncon
ditionally. in tne tour years wnicn nave since
elapsed, nothing has occurred to
weaken, but eyery thing to strengthen
the considerations which induced my
withdrawal from public life. To all
who have addressed me on the sub
ject, my intention has been frankly
communicated, several oi tne most
confidential friends, under sanction
of their own names, have publicly
stated my determination to be irre
vocable. That I have occasion now
to consider the question I share no
responsibility. The appeal made to
me by the Democratic masses with
apparent unanimity to serve them
once more, is entitled to the most
deferential consideration, and would
inspire a disposition to anything de
sired of me . If it were consistent
with my judgment of duty. I believe
that there is no instrumentality in
human society so potential in its in
fluence upou mankind for good or
evil as governmental machinery. For
the administering of justice and for
the making and executing the laws
not all the elemosynary institutions
or private benevolence to which the
pnuantnropist may uevote tneir lives
are so fruitful in benefits as the re
serve and preservation of this ma
chinery from perversion that make it
the instrument of conspiracy, fraud
and crime against the most sacred
rights and interests of the people.
or ntty years as a private citizen,
never contemplating an official
career, 1 have devoted at least as
much thought and effort to the duty
of influencing a right action of the
gOvernmentaTinstitution of my coun
try as to all other Opjects. I have
never accepted official service except
ior a Drier, perioq, ipr a special pur
pose, ana only when the occasion
seemed to require from me that sacri
fice of private preferences to the
public welfare.
1 undertook the State administra
tion of New York because it was sup
posed that in that way only could the
executive power be arrayed on the
side of reforms to which, as a private
citizen, I had given three years of
my life. I accepted the nomination
for the Presidencv in 1876 because of
the general conviction that my can
didacy would best present- the issue
of reform, which the Democratic
majority of the people desired to have
worked out in the. Federal govern
ment as it had been in that of the
State of New York. . I believed that
I had strength enough1 then to reno
vate the administration of the gov
ernment of the United States, and at
the close of my term to hand over the
great trust to my successor. Faithful
to the same policy, though anxious to
seek the repose of, private life, I
nevertheless acted upon the idea that
every power is a trust and involves a
duty.
In reply to the address of the com
mittee communicating my nomina
tion, . I depicted the difficulty of the
undertaking, and likened my feelings
in:, engaging to those of a soldier
entering battle; but I did not with
hold the entire consecration of my
powers to the public service.
Twenty years of continuous malad
ministration under" the demoralizing
influences of intestine war and of bad
finances have infected the whole gov
ernment system of the United States
with cancerous growths, false con
structions - and corrupt practices.
Powerful classes have acquired pecu
niary interests in official abuses, and
the moral standards af the people have
been impaired. To redress these evils
is a work of great difficulties and
labor, and cannot be accomplished
without -. the f most energetic and
efficient and personal action on the
of the Chief Executive of the
ubliC. . V
he canvass and administ,Tftt.inn
which it is desired that I should un
dertake would embrace a period of
nearly five yearsr nor can I admit
any illusion to their burdens. Three
years of experience in the endeavor
to ref orm the municipal government
of the City of New York, and tw
years of experience in renovating the
administration of the State of New
York, have made me familiar with
the requirements of such a work at
the present tim.---r-" :i
,The considerations; which induced
my action in 1880 have become im
perative. I ought not to assume a
task which I hav not the physical
strength to carry through, to reform
the administration of the,- Federal
government, to realize my own ideal
and to fulfill the just expectations of
AILY OHARLO
the people would indeed warrant as
they could alone compensate " sacri
fices which the undertaking would
involve, but in my condition of ad
vancing years and declining strength,
I feel no assurance Of my ability to
accomplish these objects. I am,
therefore, constrained to say, defi
nitely, that I cannot now assume the
labors of an . administration or of a
canvass.
Undervaluing in no wise that best
gift of heaven, the occasion and pow
er sometimes bestowed upon a mere
individual to communicate an impulse
for good, and grateful beyond
all words to my fellow country
men who would assign such benefic
ient function to me, I am consoled
by the reflection that neither the
Democratic party nor the Republic
for whose future that party is the
best guarantee, is now or ever can be,
dependent upon any one man for
their successfnl progress in the path
c-f its noble destiny.
Having given to their welfare what
ever of nealth and strength I pos
sessed or could borrow from the
future, and having reached the term
of my capacity for such labors as
their welfare now demands, I but
submit to the will of God in deeming
my public career closed.
SAMUEL J. TILDEN.
TALK IN CONGEST
SOMEWHAT OF A BREEZY TIME
IN THE SENATE.
The Honse Gives Another Day to the
River and Harbor Bill.
Washington, June 11. Senate.
Sherman from the committee on
library reported favorably the House
bill authorizing the national acedemy
of sciences to receive and hold trust
funds for the promotion of science.
The bill was read the third time and
passed. It authorizes the acadamy
to receive bequests and gifts and hold
and use them for the promotion of
science.
On dispensing with the morning
business the Senate at 1 o'clock, on
motion of Allison, went into secret
session on the item of consular and
diplomatic appropriation bill, appro
priating say 1250,000 for the expense
necessary to be incurred in execut
ing the provisions of the neutrality
act, the supposed Nicaragra canal
concession item.
Dawes offered a resolution which
was agreed to directing the commit
tee on Indian affairs to inquire into
the condition of the several tribes
and bands of Indians in the Indian
Territory, the tenure by which the
lands in'the several reservations in
that country are held and the charac
ter of their actual occupation and use,
the condition and rights of the freed
men the Indians, the relation of such
Indian tribes to the United States
and to each other, and the need, if
any, of legislation in respect thereto.
The Senate insisted upon its amend
ments to the District of Columbia
appropriation bill and a conference
committee was ordered.
Lapham offered a resolution which
was agreed to ordering the reprinting
of the testimony and majority and
minority reports of the Danville
investigation for the use) of the Sen
ate. J
At 4:35 p.m. the doors were re
opened, when Butler offered the fol
lowing resolution which, under
objections, went over one day.
Resolved, That for the purpose of
ascertaining whether further legisla
tion is necessary concerning the
national banks there be appointed
from the committee on finance a
special committee consisting of five
members whose duty it shall be forth
with to examine into the condition of
the national banks of the city of New
York, that said committee be author
ized to send for persons and papers,
to examine witnesses on oath and if
necessary to visit the city of New
York for the purpose of such exami
nation, that they be required to
ascertain the circulation of said banks
on the 31st day of May, A. D., 1884,
the amount of certified checks and
loan certificates issued by said banks
and the outstanding indebtedness on
said day, whether said banks or any
of them have issued certified checks
or loan certificates, or other evidences
of indebtedness upon the pledge or
security of personal or real property
of' any kind, or otherwise, what
amount of certificates of indebtedness
or certificates of deposit had been
issued bv said banks and are now
outstanding, what amount of curren
cy and of gold and silver coin said
banks had on hand on said day,
whether the accounts of said banks
with each other were on said 31st
day of May, 1884, or are now settled
through the clearing house in the
city of New York by lawful money
of the United States, or by certified
checks, loan certificates or other evi
dences of indebtedness, whether on
said day said banks had on hand
the reserve required by law, and to
examine fully into all matters which
I may be neccessary to show financial
conainon oi saia banks and also to
ascertain the amount and character
of assets of said banks. The resec
tion suggests further points of inquiry
as to the responsibility of the banks
to meet liabilities, &c., and appropri
ates from the contingent fund $10,000
to meet the expenses of the investiga
tion. The Senate then resumed the con
sideration of the amendments to the
consular and diplomatic appropria
tion bill, which led to a lengthy and
animated discussion, especially an
appropriation calling for 1250,000 for
some special object, and the Senate,
without a quorum, adjourned at 5 :45.
Hotjse. On motion of Dorsheimer
the Senate bill passed extending until
August 8, 1886, the time to commence
laying the cable as provided in the
act to encourage and promote tele
graphic communication between
America and Europe.
The consideration of the bill forfeit
ing the New Orleans, Baton' Rouge
and Vicksburg land grant having
been postponed until Tuesday next,
the House at 10:30 went into commit
tee of the whole, Welborn in the
chair, on the river and harbor appro
priation bill. h
The clause providing for the con
struction of the Hennepin canal
having been reached, a long discus
sion followed on the points of order
raised against it, the object of which
was to strike out this item and leave
the subject to be considered in a sep-
. Finally the Speaker overruled all
the points of order, three in number.
Holman, of Indiana, appealed from
the decision of the chair, but the
decision was sustained 103 tn fia
Holman then moved to strike out
me Hennepin clause.'
Mr. Potter, of New York, supported
the motion. The proposition to enn-
struct this canal reversed the contin
ued constitutional policy of the gov
ernment.: If it were carried out it
carried with inevitably the purchase
of such routes as the Erie canal and
the mamtainance of them by the
general government. The Hennepin
canal project was . pressed on: the
ground that it would connect the
Mississippi river with the Ocean. 1
could connect them only' so long as
New, York saw fit to furnish to the
government the Erie canal. - - -.
To motion to strike out was lost
TTE OB SERVER:
Belford, of i" Colorado, offered an
'amendment appropriating $100,000
for the improvement of Salt river,
Kentucky, provided that the im
provement shall be completed before
the 11th of November, '84, so that the
Democratic party may have an easy
access to one of the States of the
United States it has the capacity to
govern.
White, of Kentucky, proceeded to
discuss the amendment, notwith
standing the declaration of Brecken
ridge, or Arkansas, that it was inex
cusable to waste public time in this
manner. The amendment was then
withdrawn.
Under instructions from the com
mittee on rivers and harbors Willis
offered an amendment appropriating
$75,000 for completing the surveys of
the Mississippi river, between the
head of passes and head waters and
for making additional surveys of the
river and its tributaries. Adopted.
This was a solitary amendment
increasing the total of the bill which
was adopted, out of the great number
offered. After concluding the appro
priation portion of the bul the com
mittee rose and the House took: a
recess until 10 o'clock to-morrow.

Steel Cbeek, N. C, June 7, 1884.
Mb. J. 6. Shannonhocsb, Agent, Charlotte, N, C:
Dear Sir: The Osborne 6 foot Harvester, and
Binder that I bought of you some time ago has
been running on my farm eight days. Have used
the same team to it every day and my mules pull It
with ease. I can cut from 12 to 15 acres per day
and am well pleased with it In every respect. It
does more than I ever expected of a machine. I
can cheerfully recommend the Osborne to my
brother farmers who want a first-class harvesting
machine. ' J. STARR NEELY.

We wQl pay 18 cents per bushel of 90 pounds for
good sound cotton seed, delivered at our mill. Will
pay 18 cents per bushel for seed delivered at any
station on railroads running to Charlotte, for car
loads of ten tons and above, we paying freight on
same.
Or we win give one ton of meal In exchange for
two tons of seed. This exchange being of great
value to the farmer should be taken advantage of,
one ton of meal being worth much more for feed
ing or ierauzing man two tons 01 seed.
