There seemed to be a great deal of spir-

though the Prohibitionists are supposed

dodging the temperance issue by asking
the people to vote upon an amendment

voting it down was enough to arouse the

tains some expressions of the leading

Blaine seems to have slightly the lead
among the Republicans, there are many
strong expressions of preference for
Sherman, Lincoln, Allison, and others.
One Republican, Congressman Wood-
burn, of Nevada, declares that the man
whom he would like tosee run against
Blaine is Allen G. Thurman. On the
Democratic side the chorus of preference
for Clevelaad is broken by hardly a mur

of the West and South are concerned the
nomination of Cleveland has already
been made, and in their belief, ag voiced
in the Gazette, the National Convention
will have no other function than to go
through the form of ratifying the people's

MR, BEECHER'S BIOGRAPHY.
The Rev. Mr. Halliday, Mr. Beecher's
| assistant in Plymouth church, has been
| associated with Lyman Abbott, D. D.. in
the preparation of the bic graphy of the
| late Mr, Beecher, to which the great
preacher, previous to his death, largely
{ contributed. It was not proposed to
| have either Mr. Halliday's or Mr: Beech.
| or’s connection with the book generally
known, but the death of Mr, Beecher has
removed the objection to the fact being
| made public, and now the complete hook
will appear with both Dr. Lyman Ab-
bott's and Rev, 8, A. Halliday’s name on
| the title page, who are fitted to
write such a work than any other living
persons, They have also been assisted
by a corps of over thirty eminent writers
Leonard Bacon, D D, J. G. Whittier
and others, who have contributed rem
iniscences, ete, As Mr. Beecher did
not write a line upon any antohiography
of himself, but did cootribute to this
work, the additional fact is apparent that
Dr. Abbott's and Rev. Halliday's book is
the nearest approach to an antobiography
that Mr, Beecher has left, and with the
array of talent employed it looks ns if
we were to have a biography which is
worthy of the man, and will prove a val-
uable addition to any library,
