THE LETTER WRITING CAxDI.
DATE
Eyasive On the Rebel Claim Qaes-
tiOn.


New York. Sep. 20.-The Boston
Irareler's Washington special says: A
short time since a prominent democrat
wrote to Hancock asking his views in
regard. to the payment Of southern
claims, for his own private information.
The writer was explicit in specifying
the classes Of claims which he had in
mind.
Hancock has written letter OF con-
siderable length in reply, which is alto
gelher eyasiye. He does not mention
rebel claims in his letter. but refers in
a general way instead to the democrat-
ic platform in regard TO amendments.
The gentleman who received it had
written with great confidence that he
would receive Straightforward declar-
alton that il Hancock was elected he
would oppose the payment of these
rebel claims. The gentleman wanted
the Information in order to satisfy
small company Of democrats who had
assigned as a reason for concluding not
TO vote for Hancock, that he would not
oppose the payment Of these claims.
The letter-writing general has writ
ten to California to say that he was
early identified with the interests Of
that state, which fact, of course, should
entitle him TO the support Of the CRATE
full Californians. And as California,
Oregon and Nevada have n community
OF interests, these three states should
be aroused to the truth that they owe
much OF their present greatness and
prosperity to the fostering hand of Han
cock. To be sure, some of the irrever.
ent citizens Of the Pacific coast have
asked with impatience how a spruce
young lieutenant under pay, temporari-
ly detailed for garrison duty In CalIfor-
mia, many years ago, could possibly be
identified with their interests, but they
are unreasonable II 1t requires great
stretch Of the imagination To make a
claim on California votes from a brief
army experience in the Golden state.
Why should unfriendly criticism be
made upon an anxious letter writing
candidate?

A Double Tragedy.

Jonesville, Mich. Sep. 20.-A horri-
BILE tragedy occurred yesterday evening
at the residence of Andrew Tiffany,
two miles from here. Henry Lindley,
hired man in the employ OF Tiffany,
who is supposed to have conceived a
passion for his employers eighteen
year-old daughter, Alice, called on her
and shot her, killing her instantly.
Lindley then blew his own brains out,
falling with the weapon under him.
The only cause known to which the
dreadful crime can be attributed is un-
requited love. The parents were visit
ing the grave Of daughter. Alice had
refused Lindley.

900 Plurality.


BOSTON, Sep. 20.-Goy. Davis tele-
.,.phs from Augusta; 81 shall be
slscted by 800 or 400 plurality, without
doubt
Portland, Sep. 20.-An Augusta dis
..teh says: Election returns 80 far

slO votes. There are several towns and
,l.utations TO hear from and there are
some discrepancies In the returns re-
.sived BY telegraph, which makes II
aIeicult 10 ascertain the exact result Of
tbe election. II Is evident, however,
that the vote is close and 1t Is quite
urobable that only the Official canvass
of the returns will decide who is
elected.
Boston, Sep. 20.-A Herald special
from Portland says: The latest returns
received ut the democratic headquarters
from 400 towns give Plaisted 3,493,
Davis rs ,542. The towns to hear from
gave in 1879 fusion majority of 1877.
The returns viii give Plaisted plu-
rality Of 116 II the towns TO be heard

Maine On the Mai.e Eieetiss.
Boston, Sep. 20.-Senator Blaine Is
in this city, and he telegraphed Chair
main Jewell, OF the republican national
committee, as follows.
Intelligence reaches me here to-day
Indicating that the telegraphic report
Of the votes as published by the asso-
ciated press, Is In some cases modified
by the clerks' returns as they reach the
ONCE Of the secretary Of state, where
they are open to the inspection of the
public. These notifications are of
such q character as 10 render the con-
test between Davis and Plaisted rs ex-
tremely close, probably requiring the
Official returns to determine which Is
elected. The Official returns cannot be
counted or even opened until the meet
ing Of the legislature in January"
Abiding to the cry Of "fraud" put
forth by Chairman Barnum, Mr.. Blaine
says: The only possible opportunity for
frauds in the election returns under
our laws, is in the French plantations
Of Aroostock, where the assessors sign
the returns, expressed in language
with which they are entirely unac-
quainted. 1 do know Of frauds being
committed there In past years by DEM
ocratic agents, and repeat that no.
where else In Maine is fraud practi-
cable.n
Blaine says also that Chairman Bar
mum is in palpable error when he as
sumes that all the election returns
should be at Augusta the day after the
election. Maine has u larger territory
than the other five New England states
together, and the southwestermost
town in Maine Is nearer to Baltimore
than 1t is to the French plantations on
the Upper st. John, by any practicable
route, and man can 60 from Augusta
to Chicago as quickly as he can go
from Augusta TO Fort Kent.

leagues suggested any departure from a
pacific, prudent and reserved policy.
The differences in the cabinet were
wholly confined to the question of the

No Greens.eker. Wanted In IndIann

Chicago, Sep. l20.-The local demo-
cratic managers in Indiana have con-
WINGED Chairman Barnum, of the ma
tional committee, that his schemes, to
import Plaisted and other Maine fiat
ists to the solidify the greenback vote
in that state, would be q dangerous ex.
pertinent. Nobody knows just who and
what greenbackers are this year; but II
Is certain that they are not the same
men who voted for Peter Cooper in 10.
The narrowing suspicion on the aver
age democratic mind in Hoosierdom, is
that most Of the late day converts to
fiatism are democrats, and under these
circumstances It is not thought wise to
work up any special excitement among
men Of that class. Mr.. Barnum, who
sees the point, has gone home.

RennhIican State Convention

We went up to Columbus last
Wednesday to look in upon the State
convention. 1t was the largest State
convention we ever attended. The
only question of interest was the
Presidential question. When the
name of John Sherman was mention
ed. two thirds of the audience cheered;
when the name Of Blaine was men,
toned one half cheered; when the
name of Grant was mentioned twenty
or thirty cheered, and a few hlssed.
When any thing was said about sup
porting the nominee Of the Chicago
convention, no matter who he be,
the entire crowd yelled and cheered.
A friend near us remarked that this
unanimity as to the nominee, without
regard to the man nominated, boded
no good for the Democracy. In an
other place we give the ticket nomin-
ated. For Presidential Electors for
the State, the Following were select
ed: Charles III. Grosvenor and Sidney
S. Warner Delegates to the Chicago
convention, VIM. Dennison, Charles
Foster, James A. Garfield and War

Bro. JOHN HoPLEY, of the Bucy-

good Journalist, and for these two
reasons we think it somewhat strange
that he holds to the opinion that the
advocacy of Blaine as a Presidential
candidate Injuries the Republican par
ty-especially when Bro. III. is a wit
ness to the enthusiasm for Mr.. Blaine
in many portions of the country,
notably in the strong Republican
States. To talk of Blaine being
vulnerable to the assaults of the Dem
ocracy, is silly, as the friends of Mr..
Sherman will suddenly discover, in
case of Shermans nomination at
Chicago. Sherman's friends claim
great credit for not publishing Blaine s
record Do these men ever stop to
think what would be the result Of
Blaine's friends going into the

Mr.. Sherman should be well satisfied
with the following that he has, and
should agitate the question of 'records" :"

Sherman because the Democrats hate
