His task will be fin ished at 12 o'clock on Saturday next : His features are pinched and drawn, and bbl eyes look heavy. His temper is irritable, and crowds of spectators annoy him. His usual drive failed to benefit bim, and ho says he will give up going out until the end of bis fast. During the morning he drank at intervals less than half a pint of croton and mineral water. He is now on bis thirty-seventh day. The record of Dr. Haeber, who wat one of tba watchers, last night says "I don't yet find anything alarming in Dr. Tanner's condition, and believe fro in the strength. developed when ho walks, moves and speaks, that if ho abstains from irritating drinks, like mineral water, ho may fast four or five days more -that is up to Saturday." His strength seems to leave him during the early morning hours, and > at this time the watchers are doubly careful lest signo of collapse should begin to show themselves. At one time during last night there were no leen than ten physicians in the gallery. Tanner seemed to with for all the air he could .possibly get, and bad all the win dows open. A refreshing breera during the nigbt was enjoyed very much by him. GENERAL HANCOCK'S LETTER. A Paper-Every way Worthy of the Sol dler-Statessnan. NEW York, July 30.

Stevenson, I'reriJent of Con vention. Hon. John H. Stockton, Chairman aud other Members of the Committee of No tification : I:; m AK.* VOM!?, July 80. Gentlemen : I baye now the hoitor to reply to your letter of the 13th instant informing mo that I watt unanimously nominated for Vico-Fresldeiit of tho United State? by the late Democratic National Convention which assembled at Cincinnati. As foreshadowed in verbal re marks tn ado by ino af tho timo of tho i delivery of your lotter. I have now to say that I accept tho high trust, with a realizing sense of itu responsibility, and am profoundly grateful for the honor conferred. I accent tho nomination upon tho platform of principien adopted by tho Convention, which X cordially approvo, and I accept lt quito as much bocauao of | my faith iu tho' wisdom and patriotism of tbo great statesman and soldier nomi nated on tho same ticket for Presi dent of tho United States, ills eminent k jrviccs to his country, his fidelity to tho Constitution, tho Union and the laws, his clear perception of conoc? principles of government aa taught by Jefferson ; his pcrunuloua caro to keep the military in strict subordination to tho civil au thorities; his high regard for civil lib erty, personal rights and the rights of property ; lils acknowledged ability In civil as well ai military affaira, and hts puro and blameless lifo, uti point to him aa a man worthy of Uie confidence of tho pooplo, as not only a bravo soldier, groat commnndor, wiso statesman and pure patriot, but a prudent, painstaking, practical man of unquestioned honesty. Trusted often with Important public du tton, faithful to every trust and In the I full meridian of a ripe and vigorous | manhood, he IH, in my judgment, emi nently fitted for tho highest position on earth-tho Prosldoucy of the United States, Net only is ho tho right man for tho Claco, but tho timo has como when tho est interesta of tho country require tbut tho party which has monopolized the exocutlvo department of the General Govornmont ?for tho last twenty years should bo retired. Tlio contlnuanco of that party in power four years longer would not bo beneficial to tho public, or in accordance with tho spirit of oar ro ?mblican institutions. Laws of entail lave not been favored In our system of| govvoment. Tho perpetuation of prop erty or place in ono family or sot of men has never been encouraged in this coun try, and tho great and good mon who, founded our Republican govornmont and its traditions, winoly limited tho tenure of office, ana in many ways show ed their disapproval of long leases bf | power. TWENTY Y KAI!.'! of continuous power is long enough, and has already lou to irregularities and cor ruptions which are not likely to bo prop ly osposed nuder tho ?arno party thal porpetrated thorn. It should not bo forgotten that tho four last years of power hold by that party wero procurad by discroditablo moana, and hold in defiance of tho wishes of tho majority of tho pooplo. It was a griev ous wrong to ovo ry voter and our system of self-government which should novoi be forgotten or forgiven. Many of the mon now in ofilco wore pat there heeauso of corrupt partisan services in thus do feating tho fairly and legally exprossod Will or tho majority, ?ind tho hypocrlay of tho professions of that party in favor of civil service reform was shown by placing auch men in ofneo and turning tho whole brood of Federal office-holders Iooso to influence elections. Tho money of the pooplo taken out of the publia j treasury by these men for services of ten poorly performed or not poformed at all, hoing used in vast sums with tho knowl edge and presumed sanction of tho ad ministration to control elections, and even members of tho Cabinet aro stroll ing about tho country making partisan Bpooches, instead of being in their de partments at Washington discharging the j {mhllo duties for which they aro paid by he people. But with all their cleverness and ability a discriminating publia will no doubt read botween tho linea of theh upoechca that tholr paramount hopo and ann i? tu keep themselves or tboir satal ites four years longor in office. That rKUl'KTUATINO THU l'OWEBS of chronic Fedoral officeholders four years longer will not bonoflt tho millions of mon and women who bold no ellice, but cam their dallybread by honest indus try ls whatthoeamodlseorningpubllo will no doubt fully understand, as they will also that it is because of tboir own indus try and economy, and God's bountiful harvests, that tho country ls compara tively prosperous, and not bocauao of anything done by these Fedoral office holders. Tho country ls comparatively prosperous, not bocauso of thom, but tn BpKe of thom. This contest is in fact botween tho pooplo endeavoring to retain tho political power which rightfully L - longs to them, and to restore tho puro, Himple,- economical, constitutional gov ernment of our f?tthor:a on tho ono aldo, und a hundred thousand Fedoral offloo holdora and-their backers, pampered with placo and power and determined to retain thom at all hazards, on the othor. Honce tho constant assumption of. now sud dango rous powers by the genera! govornmont nndor the rulo of tho Repub lican party, tho effort, to build up what they.call a strong Govornmont, tho in terference with homo rulo and tho ad ministration of j us tico in the courts or tho several States, the iiiterforcnco with elections through tho medium of paid fmrtUun Fedoral officeholders interested a keeping tholr party in power, and earing moro for that than for fairness in elections. In fact tho constant encroach ments which have been made by that party upon tho clearly reserved rights of tho people and States will, if not chocked, subvert tho liberties of tho pooplo and the Government of limited' powers created by tho fat ho ra, and end In a great consoli dated central Government, 'strong In deed for evil and tho overthrow of Re publican Institutions. Tho wiso met? who founded our Consti tution know the Kvits or trrnoito aovBnnxKKT and the long contlnuanco of political cower in tho sanio hands, Thoy know there was a tendonoy in thia direction in oil goypreiuonts, and consequent danger j to Itopubltean Institutions from that causo, aud took poiiw f\o guard against tt.
