The FALL TRADE IN New YoRK.-A cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
writes from New York on Tuesday as fol-
lows
"The fall trade is now fairly under way,
and on all sides increased activity is re-
ported. Within day or two past country
merchants have taken hold freely. Dry
goods, carpetings, hardware, boots and
shoes, and hides and leather, are especially
brisk, without, however, any marked change
in values. Many of the larger houses are
kept busy packing goods up till near mid
night. The orders are chiefly from the
West and Southwest. Still the South is
buving quite literally, all things consi-
dered.
1.-The dry goods auction sales to-day had
sundry features Of interest. One house
offered large assortment of Lupin's ia
brics and British dress goods Of late i'm
portation. The company present included
representatives of the trade from New Or
leans, St. Louis, Chicago, Cincinnati, and
other remote points. The bombazines,
merinos, and plaids sold quickly, and
brought satisfactory prices but wool de-
LANES were not in 30 much request, and
sold low. The catalogues were nearly all
disposed of, and no duplicates were offered.
"Another house had sale of linens,
silks, dress fabrics, etc., which drew to-
gether many out-of-town purchasers. Al
pacas and mohairs realized fair prices, as
likewise did the linens, with some lots dupli-
Gated. There was also a large sale by an
other firm of fancy goods and trimmings.
The attendance was chiefly made up Of city
retailers. But few lots were passed. Prices
showed no noteworthy changes from those
realized for the same kinds Of goods last
spring."

TRIrKs.-The political contest in Maine
is getting "red-hot," as Brick pomeroy
terms it. All sorts of electioneering tricks
are resortcd to, generally good-natured, and
some decidedly original. The Democrats,
Tor instance, CREASED the rails on the Ken
ncbec railroad to prevent the Portland Re-
puhlicans from getting up to the big Repub-
lican demonstration at Augusta in season.
The Republicans, however, chalked their
wheels and went ahead. This trick, we be-
Iievc, was in retaliation for one played of
by the Republicans in detaching train OF
Democrats from their engine in q way &c
cause perplexing break of connection
with the Peudleton meeting at Bangor.

Military Affairs In Western Kentucky

To The Pu5hc::q 4
During my absence last week, the
Evansville Courier, without any lust
provocatien on my part, commenced
a personal attack upon me, and has
continued it from day to day. The
writer makes no direct charges against
me, but refers to my military admin
istration. of affairs in Kentucky
during the war, and, by cow
ardly innuendoes and unmanly in
situations, seeks to create the
impression that levied forced money
assessments upon the people of
that region for my own personal gain.
Such intimation was made more than
year ago by his immediate prede-
cessor, R. s.. SPRoULE, editor Of the
Courier, who, after an examination Of
the facts, gave me a free and COM.
plete vindioation. through the col
Hmns OF the Courier. L took occa-
sion at that time to make a f,H state
menti of my administration of affairs
IN Kentucky during the war, which.
with the letter from General
BOYLE and the editorials from the
Courier and iSentine2-on- tn e Border
satisfied every candid citizen; and |
reasonably supposed that 1 would
never again have occasion to refer to
the subject. But the editor of the
Courier, blind to the facts known to
every one and publicly acknowledged
by his predecessor, not having the
manlfness to make an open and direct
charge against me, with the instinct
of coward, has for days passed been
publishing innuendoes and indirect in
situations against my integrity.
Regretting the necessity, I deem il
just to myself to reproduce the art;-
cles which appeared in the JOURNAL,
Courier, and Sentinel in 1867, omit
ting only few paragraphs of per-
sonal character relating TO General
BOYLE, and having no reference to
my conduct. / add to these the
statement of Colonel T. w. CAMP
BELL, an old citizen of Kentucky,
referring to the Hopkins County
