QuINcr. September 25, 1876.
Dame! .hcgoae, Jr., Esq, ChGirman
Ne" York STATE Democrd;ic Co,a,Htte.
--Dc1T Sir: Absence from home has
prevented INC from answering promptly
yonr letter of the both inst.
II werv younger il would DO M
agreeable duty to perform the task to
which you invite ME. But 1 have not
done anything of the kind for fifteen
years, and am now in my seventeen
year. Should ncccp: your invitation.
l should give rise to others which
would have AN equal claim. My juds-
rlcnt is that had better stay at homo.
ic; l think l fully appreciate the i'm
portance Of this canvass. 1t is narrow-
ing itself more and mere into struggle
between the people aud tho managers,
who hold the official organization of
Tho country-tor their OWN exclusive
benefit. From THO days of the Credit
Mobilicr down to the last exposures
made b. tho investigations of the last
Congress, there is only ono conclusion
to be drawn, and that is the prevalence
of corruption almost everywhere in the
Republican organization. Tho honest
men do, indeed, make brave and sincere
efforts to resist this baueful influence,
but they are too often defeated to raise
my just hopes Of ultimate success.
This struggle las been going Oh for
years, and no material change for the
better has yet been effected. The time
has now come for radical change and
the substitution OF u wholly new inllu-
cncc, tied up by no restrictions other
than the genuine wishes of honc.t Incn
Of all parties. When in n great popular
convention of party to nominate
candidate for the Presidency, one gG:i-
tleman, deeply compromised by the i'll
vCstigations of committee OF the
House OF Representatives, comes within
twenty-five votes Of nomination, and
another, who really dId honor to him.
self by fearless end elective exposures
OF corruption in high places, could not
more than u hundred votes,
it seems TO me that it is high time for II
change i'll public opinion. Neither Is
the case Improved By view of the
III which the canvass has been
carried on. The great effort OF the Re-
publicGns seems To be to operate Oh the
popular passions excited dming the
late civil waf. Instead of repeating
the honorable call of President Grant,
"Let us have peace" the cry is for
raising what nsny ircrs another war.
And why is this? Only because the
people of the Southern States choose 10
vote rs they please, without regard TO
the corrupt combinations Of o!!ice-hold-
ers all over The county, Hieldrd l,y
equally corrupt combinations Of legisla-
tors at the seat of Government, to per-
petuate the;r own powc:. Verify, VIC ~,
if the people a'o wise they will lay

have been favo:ab!y reported by Re-
publican committees Of one of the two
Houses Of Congress during tho past ten
years. tEc greatest portion being re-
ported farorably III the Senate, which
has gone further in the allowance and
payment Of war claims than the House.
In the list also appear several cases
which passed both Houses Of Congress
during the last session, anu became
laws by the approval Of President
Grnnt, among them being, for instance,
tho case Of Randall Brown, OF Tcnnr.-
see, who was paid $4,000 for mules,
wagons, &C., taken from him 10y the
rebel forces while in the employ Of the
United States army. Nuw, this bill has
been reported favorably three times by
Republican committees, and had passed
the iioase twice before, but Brown, be-
lnSa poor, colorcd man, could never
get it through tho Senate. The bill
was reported from the present Commit
tee on War Claims by an ex-ConS.d-
crate" which certainly shows all ab-
serce OF "venom," which Republican
papers are SO free to clsrgo animates
the Southern members against the col
orcd race. Another feature Of This list
ii interesting. 1t purports TO nc COM
posed entirely of bills init Iced By
Democratic members, while, MS n matter
Of fact, there are seven Republican
members from Southern States in the
list, whose bills aggregate moro than
any othtr seven in the list.
Hundreds OF claims identical with
these claims now pending before Con-
grcss, aud which are characterized as
rebel claims" have been paid by acts
of Republican Congresses approved by
President Grant. and they could he
cited from tho statutes, page after page,
II it were necessary. Not only Lns
President Grant approved scores Of bills
paying for property used. damaged or
destroyed by United States troops, but
lie has, III one notable case, that Of the
East Tennessee University. approved
the bill which lac had previously vetoed,
tho bill finally approved nppruplinting
the same amount, ana being the idrnti-
cal claim vetoed By him III tho I'D Con-
Gress. the only change being merely Of
phrascrlogy. The Kentucky University
Was also damaged by the occupation OF
United States troops, ard yet President
Grant approved IL bill Gprropginting
SD, 900 for the use and benefit OF said
University. lie las also approved bills
paying for property destroyed Ly the
rebels, and Republican committees Of
both Houses Of Congress lave fayornbly
reported scores OF such bills.
The Outcry now made about tho pay
