- In sjs'aking of the I’resident’s an

the Louisville Ciiitrirr-hiiirnat says:
It Is neither tlsh, flesh nor fowl.
Prepared originally to he a ltadh-al
lioijfuerang and eliminated into n He
imbHean campaign document, it lacks
the, force and spirit of either the one
or the other. It is evasive and apol
ogetie, partisan and disingenious,
a realty weak document. We are
told that the Conservative leaders of
the President's faction are rejoiced
by It. If they are so they are easy to
please. There is nothing in it but
stale bread an'd water. The, Radicals
will not find it nutrieious. As for the
Demoi'rats, they are likely to laugh
at it as a poor make-shift which half
admits all they have charged against
its author and his agents.
