AS IT SHOULD HAVE

To tht ITon. Qtoryt frbbii Hour

Cvuvttidon
Gentlemen: My nominationbyyour
convention at Chicago was unexpected.
I did not desire it; I had not even con
templated the possibilities of ita being
made. A very distinct recollection of
events in my own publio "aier left no
room in my jn'nJ fir the supposition
that the $tmtical party with which . I
am acting could, under any circum
stance, risk its supremacy upon my
candidature. After the moment of
weakness in which T consented to
allow my name to go before thn dele
gates, my 6rst impulse was to with
draw. That impulse has recurred with
augmented strength at various times
during the past five weeks. It is still
stroii'' within mo. Nevertheless, it
having Wn represented to mo that
withdrawal is impossible, I have reluc
tantly decided to accept the nomina
tion of the republican party to b.- Pres
ident of the United States, I expressly
disclaim r "ponnibility fur the rnsult if
unfavorable to the party.
Having candidly defined my posi
tion in regard to the canvass, it becomes
proper for me to touch, with equal tan
dor, upon the leading issues that will
engage the attention of the people dur
ing the next few months:
In June, 1868, as is shown by th
record, and is declared by the report of
the Republican investigating committee
known s the Poland Uoinraittee. I
eceived front Mr. Or.kerAmes avherl
for 'hree hundred and twenty-nine do
1 i.rs, being a dividend on stock held b
.ne in the Credit Mobilier of Atm-rca
fn tbe rnrifnsinn nf a trying i'""1"'' I
swore that I had never owned such
stock and never received such dividend.
AYhen it was shown that tho money in
question hod been paid roe, beyond the
possibility of a dgubt, I requested Mr.
Oakes Ames to consider in a loan. I
now respectfully ask the voters to take
this view of the transaction and let it
go as a loan.
On the 12th of July, 1872 by in
teresting coincidence just eight years
ago to-day I received from a firm of
contractors interested in procuring an
appropriation by the Committee of
which I was chairman, a check for
85,000. When this transaction was
investigated five years later by a com
mittee of Congress, I swore that the
S5.000 was not a brilie but a fee. The
fact that I had never rendered to this
firm of contractors any service of legal
character is one in which my opinion it
is neither just nor generous to bring up
after all this lapse of time. I therefore
respectfully request the voters of the
United States to adopt my views of the
five thousand dollar transaction and
let it go as a fee.
In February and March I was large
ly instrumental in effecting the passage
of an appropriation of alwut f 2,000,-
000 for the lmck pay of Contrrcssman.
1 considered the amount which came
into my hands a welcome addition to
my slender income; but when I found
that the measure was odious to thecoun
try and likely to eflect the political fu
ture of the Congressman concerned in
ify I made haste to cover the entire
sum into the Treasury. I was one of
he first half dozen to refund. I no
"spectfully ank the vot rs tl the V
H. 'n tnke ror v;- n- rf F res'orntioi
of the people's money and let it go as a
virtuous act
There is no doubt on other questions
affecting my personal character which
will come before the country: tnose
wliich I have specified seem to me to be
among the most important. My ear
nest desire is that whatever course po
litical questions may take between now
and Novemlier we may be spared a
campaign of calumny.
On UiD other i-u;.d, if culture and
claiie.d ayaiiiineiits are to hate ar.y

Fun Ii Faitlti.
The craving of the public appetite
for spiced and piquant food is being ab
normally pandered to by the Insane de
sire for publicity which has taken pos
session of the now notorious Dr. Tan
ner. This individual's fast, even if it
eeases ere the expiration of the time
urued by him for ita continuance, has
already lasted for a period which
strikes the uninitiate I with awe and
bewilderment, the profession with as
tonishment and perplexity. We be
lieve this to be a limit Jiilt fast, nor
do we iu any way 'discredit' the" warran
ty of tho gentlemen who keep "ghostly
and dismal watch" over the eccentric
and chameleon like physician. We do
not envy Dr. Tanner, and we have no
sympathy with his devoted body guard
even though their self imposed labors
be in tho interest of science.
In the belief of Dr. Tanner's honesty
we are more or lusi fortified by cases
of wonderful fasts that have from time
to time occurred, and all of which, dur
ing their continuance, excited sensa
tions akin to that which now engrosses
public attention. If we go back to the
Middle Ages, we have Joseph of Cop-
ertino, who for five years neither ate
of bread nor drank -of wine, but sub
sisted upon dried fruits and bitter
herlts, and who v an wont to fast for
forty days seven times in every jvnr.
Nicolas of Flue abstained frmn fovl al
together, and when compelled to swal
low a niorsel of bread Ii'h stomach re
jected it. Liduine of Sohied ,m fell ill
in 1395, and remained in thntslato for
thirty-three years or to her death. Dur
ing tho first nine years she partook of
nothing daily but n single wafer of ap
ple and ono mouthful of beer or milk.
Later on she rejected tho apple in favor
of water, and after nineteen years she
refused even the water. According to
her own confession, for eight years her
lips were scaled to food and drink. .The
case of Eve Fliegen, of Meurs, excited
con iiderable attention. It is stated that
for the space of fourteen consecutive
years from the twenty-second to the
thirty-sixth years of her age she re
fused nourishment of every description,
"and this we have confirmed by the
magistrates of the town of Meurs, as
also bv the minister, who made trial of
her in his house th irteen days together
by all the means he could devise, but
could detect no imposition." The Welsh
fasting, Sarah Jacobs, is a very famil
iar case of modern abstention. At the
ago of ten, this girl suiTnred from
spasms, attended with lo3H of conscious-
. - a ,1
ness, loss or muscular power and otner
. . - I i i
symptoms oi an Hysterical cnaracwr.
She frequently vomited her food, which
was taken in continually decreasing
quantities, lly the beginning of Oc
tober, 1867, her daily food was a pill of
bread adminibtered by a teaspoon; on
the 10th of October a solemn declara
tion was madethat she ceased to partake
any food whatsoever. This absolute
fast, it is alleged continued until De
cember 17th, 1869, the day upon which
she died, or a period of two' years, two
months and one week. This case so
excited the public mind that four nurs
es from Guy's hospital, in London were
sent down to watch the girl Tho wateh
commenced on the ninth of December.
On the ICth, "she was looking very
pale and anxious, her eye were sunk
and her nose as pinched," and tip
"starvation smell" told the nurses that
she was sinking. She died on the 17th.
Io rhiludilphia atfinsanM Irishman in
the Pennsylvania Asylum refused all
food and drink fir forty-six days, le
ciuse his daily allowance of food, which
was four times in excess of that allowed
to any other patient, was cut short. On
the forty sixth day of his self imposed
fast he was asked if h would have
something to eat every atrattgem htd
