The utterances of each party as far a heard, present the same antitheses. At Cincinnati we beard no positive " sound. The , contests of the rival chieftains made a crisis and hushed all bold speech on any question. Then came Mr. Hayes, the nominee, with his rose-colored view. He skipped what was ' unpleasant and dilated upon non-essentials. , ()u the other hand there has been no llder ur more masterly enuncia tion .f policy than that made by the Democratic party at St. Louis. Fred. JIassaurek thinks so, and so think all unprejudiced nien of whatever parly.

I am not without experience of the difficulty and; the labor of effecting administrative re form when it requires a revolution in politics and in measures long estab lished in government.

I have been the Executive head. Especially is this so where the reform is to be woiked out with more or less of the co-operation of public officers who either have been tainted with the evils to be redressed or who have been incapacitated by habit or toleration of the wrongs to be j cor rected to which they have been con senting witnesses. I, therefore, if your choice should be' ratified by the-people at - the -election, should enter upon the great duties which would fall upon me, not as a holiday recreation, but very much in that spirit' of consecration in which the soldier enters battle.

Applause. Gen tlemen, I thank you for the very kind terms in which you have made your communication, and I extend to you. collectively and individually a. most cordial: greeting." The formal part of the business being over, the remainder of the evening was spent in social interchange of views, the delegates remaining to a late hour the recipients of the Go vernor's hospitality.
