people with such a furor of delight and animation as greeted the announcement
of the nomination of Gen. .Geoiige B.

glad greeting and joy rent the air. Everywhere the people rejoiced rejoiced because they saw light breaking ahead rejoiced because they taw in the future a prospect of the dark pall that has overhung the country for the three years and
