The Washington correspondent of the Bes
ton Adrertiser says that reliable information
received from New York represents the Dem
ocratic leaders as greatly distressed over the
announcement that the funding operation will
be brought to close if Tilden is elected,
The publication of the statement has pro-
duced much CONSERVATION in Democratic
quarters, and the haste displayed by August
Belmont in rushing into print to affirm that
the credit OF the nation would not suffer by
the election of Tilden is deeply regretted,
now that the fact has become known that
other members of the syndicate affirm the
original statement to be true. Letters have
been received from members of the syndi.
cate since Belmont's card appeared, repud-
ating the sentiments therein expressed, and
saying with much earnestness that, with the
possible exception of Belmont all the other
houses which form the syndicate concur in
the view that Democratic success in No
vember means stab at the public credit and
total suspension of funding operations. Sec
retary Morrill, takes this view, and does not
hesitate to declare his conviction that DEM
ocratic success will compel the government
to pay many million dollars more of interest
than would be the case if Governor Hayes is
elected.

Campaign Notes.

Just fortnight more and New York will
be solid-for somebody.
The success or failure of the "reform'' CAM
paigu seems to depend entirely upon the
number of fraudulent votes.
In his Rock Hill speech, Gen. Wade Hamp-
ton said: "When the 7th of November comes
the old flag of South Carolina will be seen
ruling South Carolina" Northern Demo-
Gratis are expected to give significance to this
elevation of the old palmetto banner over the
flag of the United States by electing Tilden,
who believes in the sovereignty of State flags.
Cincinnati Republican.
This emphatic invitation to Senator Thur
man to ''put up or shut up'' is given by the
Cincinnati Commercial: "If Senator Thur
man has private fortune with which he
would like to fortify the opinions expressed
in his letters that the Democrats will carry
Ohio in November, his presence in this end
OF the state would be welcomed with more
than ordinary enthusiasm by the Republi-
cans"
Nasby gives this striking instance of indi-
v!dual joy at the Corners over the victory in
Indiana: "Deekin Pogram fell on Capt. Nc
l. SAeSA . hSSh ohN WOPe PCllOOoClS, lUJcdUY s
dimekraticp sobbed the old saint. That
elex Tilden, and 1 shel lick niger once
morep Lick niggersp' wuz the captin's
reply, the Ethiopian will wish he Good change
his skin now. The one he hez won't be Nv
much yoose to him.''
The assertion that there is any large defec-
tion of German Republicans in this State, is
utterly without foundation. Aside from the
questions of loyalty, the position of the two
parties on the common school question binds
the Germans to tine Republican party. If the
intelligent Americans of Wisconsin are as
true to conscience as the Germans, the State
will roll up a handsome majority for Hayes
and Wheeler, r,-Mit,vaukee Sentinel.
1t is not at all improbable that the Green
back vote in Indiana, which defeated the Re-
publicaus in October, may perform the same
service for the Democrats in November. 1t
is claimed by the chairman of the Green
back State Committee that his party has
0,0OO votes in the state, and that only half
of that number voted the ticket in October,
the other half voting for Williams. He says
the men who voted for Williams will not vote
for Tilden, and If they do not the state is
certain to go for Hayes. The Democrats are
evidently alarmed at the danger, for they
are calling frantically upon the Infationists
to stand by them. The Republicans are in
good spirits and hopeful of success. The In
dianapolis Journal says: 'sWe have reports
from numerous quarters of men who voted
the Democratic ticket at the recent election
who are now ashamed or alarmed, and who
intend to vote for Hayes. There are such
men in every township and school district of
the state. All that is necessary to insure
Republican victory in November is to hunt
out all that are wavering or open to convic-
tion and confirm them in their disposition to
vote the Republican ticket"

Judge Clifford's Decision.
DETROIT, MICE. Oct. 21. 1871

DETROIT, MICH, Oct 21, 1876.
To the Editor of the Press:
1 have seen Mr.. Bion Bradbury's second let
ter on the Johnson-Dow case, published in the
Argus of the 18th inst.
While am not ambitious to have the "last
word" it is proper for me to observe that Mr..
Bradbury finds it convenient to direct his cri-
ticisms against report of my remarks at War
>ren, Ohio, which report had previously stated
was not correct Mr. Bradbury avoids and
evades all discussion on the points covered by
my letter 1 may be pardoned therefore for
saying:
1st 1 made no statement of the Johnson
Dow case at Warren, Ohio, or anywhere elses
that differed in any essential respect from my
original statement of it in Boston-and that
statement Judge Clarke affirmed to be Sub
stantially correct"
dbury now acknowledges his
gross inaccuracy Ia stronger phrase might be
fairly usedl ia asserting, as he did without
qualification, that had letter in my pos.
session from Judge Clarke censuring me and
calling me to account for misstating Judge
Clifford's position. concede to Mr.. Bradbury
all the grace he deserves for his retraction,
though it was not prompt, nor direct, nor in
the tone of gentl
Sd. think 1 comprehend all the danger that
may come in the future if Judge Clfford's
opinion stands as good law. l have not spoken
anywhere in terms Of personal disrespect of
Judge Clifford. 1 have had no occasion to do
80 and no desire to do so. But 1 do not con-
cede that Judge Clifford's opinions are above
criticism may, / deem it my duty to aid in
sounding the alarm and calling public atten-
ton to the possible temper and tendency of
judicial opinion on this question, which Judge
Clarke says 'forcibly illustrates the danger to
be qpprehended from these Southern ,oar claims"
remember the warnings which Mr.. Jefferson
left on record concerning the danger from the
judiciary. AS professed though not real fol-
lower of Jefferson, it might be well for Mr..
Bradbury to study these warnings anew before
expanding the limits of his controversy.
4th, On this whole subject of Southern war
claims. Mr.. Bradbury may have great deal to
| learn and when he knows more he may possi-
| blv abate the arrogant confidence of his tone.
| 7 am quite willing that he should expend his
wrath on a misreport of my remarks instead Of
| combating my actual statement as er dorsed by
Judge Clarke. But that style of controversy
will hardly be regarded as fair or manly, %
honorable.
In conclusion, 1 desire to say to Mr.. Brad
| bury that have had more opportunity than
| he for observing the danger to be apprehended
to the Treasury of the United States from
| these Southern claims, and that without undue
| egotism, may quote to him the famous saying
of Mr., Webster; "On that subject, Sir, I am to
| be inquired of and not informed, By you."
| Very Respectfully,
j. G. BLAINE.

A LETTER has been received in Washing

and an extensive landowner in his native

out being an active Republican has voted the

seems incredible, and says the fact is well

that Louisiana and South Carolina are to be

and overawe them that they will not dare to

that, though Southern man whose lifelong
associations have been among Southern men,
he will be forced to abandon his property and

MANHATTAN IN DEMAND.-A gentle
mar recently from Austin informs us
that over one thousand shares of the
Manhattan stock, in small lots, were
purchased by residents of that town
last week. There must be upwards OF
5000 shares of this stock held by small
outside holders in the little town of
Austin, which shows that the Austin
ties not only have money with which
to buy stocks, but that they have an

NOTE FROM A EUREKA TRAv.
ELER.

We received yesterday the following
note from a well-known Eurekan who
left here here a few weeks ago on a
visit to his friends and relatives in the
East. His statement concerning the
political outlook corresponds with
nearly every account we have had
from persons who have travelled in the
East since the commencement of the
campaign:
DEBORAH, Iowa, Oct. 2, 1876.

will, in company with some old
friends, start for Philadelphia to-mor-
row. l learned of the Democratic

in time to cast a straight vote for all Of
them. Tilden is all the rage east of the

ed on as a certainty in every place /
yet been, and they say it is

RALLY,

Hon. Thomas Wren, Republican
candidate for Congress, and H. f..
Bartine, Of Carson, will address the
citizens of Eureka tonight. Mr.. Bar
tine, though a working man, is spoken
of by the Western Nevada press as
a fluent and eloquent speaker and
logical reasoner; and, this being Mr..
Wren's home and he having a large
circle OF friends here, comprising mem
bers OF both political parties, his APP
pearance on the stand will, no doubt,
be warmly greeted and a patient hear
ing accorded him by Republicans who
go their pile on him, and Democrats,
who are anxious to hear what he may
have to say in apology for the acts of
the present Administration and the
corruption of the Republican party.
