On ontoring the 1fall, he wns received with prolonged applauso, Ho was_introducod, and 8aid Lo folt profoundly sousiblo of the fgroat confldenca thoy hd_Just passed upon hir. Ho know how poorly able ho was to bonr the burden tlmy Tiad imposed upon him. o did not know 0w it camo about, _1Ie camo lioro thirty-sovon yoars ago, and tried to be as honest s man ng any of them. IIo loved his country; ho adored & [dpplous.] o lnd gono along mpch of his lifo in obscurity, somotimes mingling in its strifo in military aud civil capacitien, At thoro was o reason why thoy nominated , it wns becauso "ho was alwnys 1ruo to tho principles of the grent Ropublican porty. It wos tho party that elovated tho poo- fplo. . Howas trus_to it That was why thoy nominated him, Ho had boon boforo tho pooplo dntcé{, and tho pooplo Lad treated him very ly. 'They wero golng Lo send him to the WUnited Btates Sonate. IIo would try nnd do his duty. Tho peoplo of lllinois wanted no more loafors in tha United States Sonate, The I0p~ rosentatives stood betwoon him and their constituents, to whom thoy would bo ro- wponeiblo for thoir action. They wero visking » groat deal in sonding him to tho Bonate ou that trust for six yours. He ro- arded the nomination as oquivalont to an olocs on, Ho folt us Lo got moarer tho l‘l!ucu tho transcondant rosponsibiilty. Ho tromblod, Ila confessod it Sppalled Lin 08 io approacliod it Ho would do thoe best he conld, guided by the prinolplos that lnsplrad tho Ropublican party, t was not_tho party it was when it bogea. 13 had loft behind it great accomplishod facts, Tho phasos of politics wero rising. With the assistanco of the Lonost and true man in the air of tho Nation, it would go on with continued succoss. If it was nocessary 20 touch tho banking systom, to modify and fix 3t, the Ropublican party would do it. If it was Dccoagary to return to specie paymonts, tho Republican parly would do it, 1f-the common sense of tho poople demanded incronsed oircula~ the Republican party would do it. It was o nll tho demauds of tho country. It tho_distross of ho country in any 4 was tho party of freedom. wQuld fall below the mark, e could not tell. would be true to tho party [applausc], and bo an honost man. [Ap- lause, # ¥ He h]lfl heon olected Governor one tarm, and ‘bad no ambitlon to try it again, They had o competent man for Lioutouant Governor.

[ynughter.] o would deliver a short inaugural addréss on Mondsy. He did not think ft would be nocossary for him to say much, 18 he waa not going to stay, Ho would remuin formally discharging tho daties of Governor until thoy clect him, when he would leave. A man could nob bo oxpected to entor upon & Bonator’s duties without some time for vefloction. o had novor boen in Congross, Ho was _uncontaminated by oxporionce in n- onal legislation, Liko many of themselves, he was groen [laughter] in that sort of businoss, He would put his best foob foremost, but they should give him timo until he got his hands in, ~ After that, if he did not meot the wishos of hig constituents, hoe would have to give way. o did not boliove tho coun- try was going down. Ho did not think it was given up to corruption, o belioved it waa bet- ger to-dny than yesterday, 1o belioved in edu- cation, in elovating tho people, and o they might go upward and onward. Ho would, after’ tho eloctlon, doliver up tho seals of his office of Governor tohis successor, nnd depart on his destiny, over remembering that his election wag the groatest lonor over conforred upon Lim, or, perhaps, that ever would bo conforra upon him, Thoy wore the beat-looking ot of men he over saw, [Laughter;] Ho never stood bofore a legislative body in which he took euch an interest, [Renowod lnughter.] Mo once moro thanked {liom, and withdrow, boing applauded, SPEECH DY PARKS.
