"In a freo country the ciiitai.'mcnt of the absolute rights of tho individual should only be such as is to the peace and good order of the com nuiuity. The limit between tho proper subjects of governmental control and those which can be more fittingly left to the moral sense and self imposed restraint of the citizen should be carefully kept in view. Thus laws unnecessarily interfering with the habits and customs of any f our 'people which arc not offensive to the moral sentiments of the civilized world, and which are consistent with good citizenship and the public welfare are unwise and vexntious.

Aug. 18, 188-1. The following is Gov. Grover Clove land'rf letter of acceptance in nnswoi to the committee who notified him o hh nomination nt Chicago: Qj:ntm:mi:n 1 have received youi I coiunitinication, dated July 28, 1881 I informing me of my nomination to tin oliiee of President of the United State hy the National Democratic Convcn tion lately at Chicago. I accept the nomination with ti grateful appreciation of the supreme lienor confened and a solelnn setwc ol the icsponsihility which, in its accept mice, I awuinc. I have carefully considered the platform adopted hy the convention nnd cordially npprovu the same. So plain a statement of Democratic faitli and the principles upon which that paity appeals to the BUffra ges of the people needs no supplement or explanation. It should ho remembered that the nflice of President hi cnscntially executive in its nattiic. The lawH enacted hy (lie Legislative Branch of the Government the Chief Executive is hound faithfully to And when the wisdom of the political party which selects one of its members as a nominee for that oliico has outlined its policy and declared its principles, it seems to me that nothing in the character of the office or the nc ccssities of the case require more from the candidate accepting such lion than the suggestion of certain well known tmthao absolutely vital to the safelyjtnd fea.nc oCtbe nation tlml they can not tie too often recalled or too seriously en'o cod. We proudly call oura a government, hy the people. It is not such when n class is tolerated which arrogates to itself the management of public affairs, seeking to control the people instead of representing them. Parties arc the necessary outgrowth of our institutions, but a government not by the people when one party fastens its control the country, and perpetuates its power hy cajoling and betraying the people, instead of serving them. A government is not hy tho people when a result which should iepreent the intelligent will of free nnd thinking men is, or can be, detirmiued by tho shaiuelesH corruption of their. suffrages. When an election to office shall be the selection by tho votcri of one of their number to aestiiiie for a time it public trust instead of liio dedication to the profession of politic; when tho holders of the ballot, quickened by a sense of duty, shall avenge truth betrayed and pledges broken, and when the suH'rago shall bu altogether free and the full realijition jf a gov eniincut by tho jyojile will bo at bund. A ONi: Ti:it.M I'lllalJlKXCY I'tuifasi:!). And of tho menus to this end, not one would, in my judgiuont, bo more Hi'cctivo than an amendment to the Constitution disqualifying tho from ro election. When wo consider the patronago of this great office, tho allurements of jiower, tho temptation to retain public plncoonco gained, and more t linn nil, tho availability a party finds in nu incumbent whom a hordo of oliico holdorn, with a zeal born of lHiiefils,reoeived and fostered by tho hope of favors yet to come, stand ready to aid with money and liained jwilitical service, wo tviiognuo in tho eligibility ol the President for a iutit serintis danger to that calm, deliberate mil intelligent political action which most character ie a by the people.
