UTIOUL DEMOCRATIC TICKET, FOR PRESIDENT, Gen. W. S. Hancock, OF PENNSYLVANIA. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, W. EL English, OF INDIANA. j FOR GOVERNOR, Hon. Rufus E. Lester, OF CHATHAM COUNTY. Friday, June 25, 1880. The Democratic Candidate for President. In our editorial notice yesterday of the nomination of General Winfield Scott Hancock by the National Demo¬ cratic Convention to the Presidency of the United States, we briefly referred to him as the next President of the United States, and as a candidate who, in the election, would divide the soldiers’ vote iu the North and attiact to the Democratic standard a portion of the more respectable Republicans who were opposed to the third term and who regard with disfavor the nomination of General Garfield, be¬ cause of his unsavory reputation for honesty. Since reading the dispatches which have come in from every por¬ tion of the Union, and reading the opinions of our contemporaries pub¬ lished later, we feel that we have no reason to change our opinion yesterday so tersely expressed. Even Republi¬ cans regard General Hancock’s nation as the very best and tint the Democracy could have ami that he is one of the best men in the country. Gen. Sherman, of the present Secretary of the ury, is reported to have last said: “If you will sit down and wr the best thing that can be put in guage about General Hancock as an officer and gentleman, 1 will sign without hesitation.” Judge has also said, that “the nomination Hancock would effectually break up the Republican party m the South. He might have added, and ize that party in the North.’ though General HantoC i is worthy tho best that can be written aud said him, as an officer and gentleman, he is entitled to receive credit and tion as a respecter of the and as the champion of civil over oiilita > ry law. His administration of the tary Department of Louisiana him to every Southern m in and exalt¬ ed him m the estimation of every of Constitutional Liberty in every tion ot the Union In L celebrated order, No. Nov. 29,1S67, on taking the of the department of Louisiana Texas, the General said: In war it is indispensable to force by k <ee and oven brow and stroy opposition to lawful but when insurrectionary force been overthrown and esta ed, ami the civil authorities arc and willing to perform their lutn the military power should cease lead and the civil administration sume its natural aud iighiiul iou. Solemnly impressed with views, the General announces that great principle* ot Amorical are still the 1 iwiul inheritance ot ] <?ipie and ever .- oil 1 ' e. Ihe et trial bv jury, t:;e h.ilea& corpus, ti liberty of the pro—, the freedom 0 ipoeck, the natural rights of a ud the righ s of property must b< preserved. Ir* reputation he has _ already ^ mn as a citizen i* lor he is manly, brave, V geutle aud UDqualiliediy iwuMi U history a bo, diet is a , brilliant .... one. _r qualifications as a statesman have ready been foreshadowed and he will not govern as a military satrap but as the Chief Magistrate of a great coun¬ try, executing the laws of the land and recogniziug the will and majesty of his people. He has excellent judg¬ ment and will call to his council experienced and gifted statesmen, not mere politicians, political ring masters and subservient tools of specula¬ tors in the wealth of the nation and the prospects and liberties of the peo¬ ple. The election of the Democratic candidate promises to usher iu an era when a healihv sense of true patriot ism will again prevail and when ability and merit and purity of private character will have tome weight,, ratner than favoritism, in the selection of public servants to occupy positions of trust and lienor, both in State and in the National Government. EDITORIAL NOTES. The New York Board of Health re¬ port 111 deaths during twenty-four hours, of which forty-two were of chil¬ dren under 5 years of age of cholera in¬ fantum. The Cincinnati census supervisor has made a footing up of the work of the enumerators. With fifteen districts not fully reported the population of the city is 246,153. Counting the immediate suburbs, claim will be made of a popu¬ lation of 300,000 in round numbers. Yakoob Kahn wants a palace iD England, and £40,000 to live on there, he says, will quite satisfy him for the loss of his throne. Abdul Rahman, the most eligible of the pretenders, writes to say that three crores or rupees— that is, about £300,000—will just about fit him out nicely for a candidate for Cabul, while Mohammed Jan is ready to transfer his weight to the British scale, provided he is paid an annuity with a residence in India. In one of his recent lectures in Lon¬ don, Dr. Erasmus Wilson exhibited the photograph of a woman 38 years old and five feet five inches high, whose tresses, when she stood erect, envelop¬ ed her entire form in a golden veil, and trailed several inches on the ground. The longest fibres measured six feet three and one-half inches. Thiity inches is the mean length for females, and three feet is considered a very remarkable length. This instance is exceeded, however, by two Ameri¬ can women—one whose hair measures seven feet six inches, and another, the wile of a druggist in Philadelphia, whose luxuriant chevelurc is almost as long, and so thick that when seated upon a chair she can completely cover herself with it. The Democratic Platform. The platform of the Democrats of the United States in convention as¬ sembled declares : First. We pledge ourselves anew to the constitutional doctrines and tradi¬ tions of tlie Democratic party, as il¬ lustrated by the teaching and exam¬ ple of a long line of Democratic states¬ men and patriots and embodied in the platform of the last National Conven¬ tion of the party. Second. Opposition to centraliza tionism and to that dangerous spirit of encroachment which tends to eonsoli date the povveis of all departments in one, and thus create, whatever be the I form of government, a real depotism ; no sumptuary aws ; separation oi church aud State for the good of each, common schools fostered and pro¬ tected. Third. Home rule ; honest money, consisting of gold and silver aud paper, convertible into coin on demand; strict maintenance of public faith, State and national; aud a tariff revenue only. Fourth. The subordination of military to the civil power, and general and thorough reform of the civil service Tltlh. ihe right • , to freo , , ballot ,, a IS the right preservative of all rights, and must and shall be muntaiued in every part ot the United States. Sixth. The existing administration is i representative bv conspiracy on Ud ! its claim of right to surround the ballot boxes with tioops and deputy mar mils j to intimidate and obstruct elections and an unprecedented use of the veto to ! maintain its corrupt and despotic pow- 1 ei , insalts the people aDd impet their ■ institutions. | Seventh The opcat fraud of lS 7 r> ' , 7, by which, upon a false count ot the 1 j.cctorai vote ot the St-ites the caudi lute deteat d at the jobs was declare ! : to be Pr ] ent and lor the first, time i 1 Atnei n bisto •v, the w U 1 was s-t « ; under i nut 0 : , :ii,itarv vioie oe ruck a tlujY bio*7 at our system rep resenuti m.-nt.

We execrate the coarse of tliis administration in rnatiing places in civil service a rew.it 1 lor p ditical crime, and demand reform by a statute which shall make it forever impossible for a defeated candidate to bribe his way to the sear of a usurper by billeting vil¬ lains upon the people. [This was read again in response to the demads, and was received with applause ] Ninth. The resolution of Samuel J. Tilden not again to be a candidate for the exalted place to which he was elected by a majority of his country¬ men, and trom which he was excluded by the leaders of the Kepublican par¬ ty, is received by the Democrats of the United States with sensibility, and they declare their confidence in his wisdom, patriotism and integrity un shaken hy the assaults of a common enemy, and they further assure him that he is followed into the retirement he has chosen for himself by the sym¬ pathy and respect of his fellow-citizens, who regard him as one who, by elevat¬ ing the standards of public morality, and adorning and purifying public ser vice, merits the lasting gratitude of his country and his party. Tenth. Free ships, and a living chance tor American commerce on the seas and on land. No discrimination in favor of transportation lines, corpor¬ ations, or monopolies. Eleventh. The amendment of the Burlingame treaty. No more Chinese immigration, except for travel, educa¬ tion and foreign commerce, and there¬ in carefully guarded. Twelfth. Public money, public credit for public purposes solely, and public land for actual settlers. Thirteenth. The Democratic party is the friend of labor and the laboring man, and pledges itself to protect him alike against cormorants and the com¬ mune. Fourteenth. We congratulate the country upon the honesty and thrift the Democratic Congress, which has reduced public expenditures forty mil¬ lions a year; upon the continuation the prosperity at home and national honor abtoad, and above all, upon the promise of such change in the ad¬ ministration of the government as insure us- a genuine and lasting re¬ form in every department of the pub¬ lic service ffnuw w;<r,rv • New Advertisements* By J.
