NEW YORK.. October %.
Henry Havemeyer sends q card to the press in
regard to the cipher dispatches, relating to the
late Presidential election, in which he says he
never sent any of the dispatches; never author
lied any one to send them; does not know the
meaning OF the cipher, and could not translate
them. During short period after the late
Presidential election, . number Of these dis
patches were sent to his address for other per.
sons. but this was discontinued at his request,
because their frequency became an annoyance.

John F. House. in accepting the Congressional
nomination from tho Democrats of the Sixth
District, predicted that the next political con.
test would be froe from sectional hatred. He
said: "I cannot, fellow citizens, find 1t in my
heart to indulge in feelings Of malice toward
magnanimous and generous conduct toward the
Southern people, feel like pulling off my hat
and standing uncovered In their presence.
Grander than the victory Of Arpomattox is the
victory won by the people Of the North in their
noble and gener contributions to the stricken
and suffering South. Upon that fatal field the
South surrendered her sword within the shadow
OF the dark wing of pestilence, beside the new
made graves Of her heroic sons and daughters.
With bowed head and fearful eyes she now ex-
tends her hand and surrenders her heart to the
generous and magnanimous North. Gods own
hand has bridged the bloody chasm. Let not
the ambition of man seek to reopen the wounds
and to rekindle the embers of sectional strife. +"
WARRINGTON, Oct. %.
1t is probable that the question Of the Halifax
award will be reviewed this winter, whatever
may be done about the ultimate payment of the
money. The claim is made that those who have
been examining the subject, that taking the
British bill of particulars exactly as it was sub
mitted, it shows that the Canadians were en-.
titled only to $l20,0O0 annually, or to an ag.
gregate of 81 100000 for ten years. This Ii less
than 81 500 900, instead of S. 100000, the amount
| Of the Halifax award; and against this. 1t ia
| claimed, it would be fair to deduct the special
states for Canada. This item in itself would
amount, In the ten years, to $4,000, 900. That
would make 81 500 900 In favor Of the United
States, instead Of $5,0Oo.00e in favor Of Great
Britain. Tho gentlemen connected with this
business will undoubtedly be called upon TO OK
plain their conduct.
