The New York Express states on
good authority that, last week, a num-
Der of rich men waited on Gen. Han
cock and told him they would raise a
quarter of million dollars toward the
legitimate expenses OF his election if he
would permit them to name the secreta-
ry of the treasury should he be elected
president. General Hancock was told
that while the republicans were raising
and spending vast sums of money IL
this campaign, and it was proposed tc
raise a million dollars by private sub
scrlpllon to insure the election of Gar.
field. the democratic committee had NJ
funds to speak OF, and is obliged to de
pend upon the spontaneous enth usiasn
of the people ior contributions. Gen
eral Hancock listened to their statemen
with respect, and courtcous!y replied
"Gentlemen, | must decline your offer
If elected to the presidency | must tax
the office unpledged"-a reply charac
teristic of the mau and in keeping wit
his record.

GEN. GARFIELD's CREDIT MOBILIER
RECORD.

From his own Sworn Testimony before the PO-
land Committee, january H. lSI3.l

any stock OF the Cred. MobIIer or Uf the Union
Pacific railroad, nor any dividends arising from
either oil them.
From Judge Poland's Report, Feb. Is. 1876
Gariield's Testimony Perury.l
The facts in relation TO Mr.. GARFIELD, as found
by the committee, are that he agreed with Mr.
Ames to take ten shares OF Credit M"blier stock,
but did not pay for the same. MIR. Arnes receIv,
e.; the eighty per cent. dividend i'll bonds and
sold them ior ninety-Seven per cent, and also
received the sixty per cent. cash dividend.
which, together with the prlc. of the stock and
interest, left Il balance of $3.50. This sum was
paid over to Mir. Garfield by a check on the
sergeant arms, and Mr. Garfield then under
stood this sum Was the balance Of dividends al
ter paying Tor the stock.
From the New York Times, Rep, Feb. 70, '73.
Messrs. Kelly and Garfield present most dis
tressing figure. Their participation III the Cred
it Mobilier affair is complicated by the most un-
fortunate contradictions oi testimony.
[From the New York Times, Rep, Feb. 20, '73.
The character of the Credit Mobiler was nc
secret. The source Of Its profits WAS very wei
known at the time cOngressmen bought it
Though Oakes Ames may have succeeded IN con-
ceailnS his own motive, which was to brlbt
congressman, their acceptance OF the stock was
not On that account innocent. The dishonor o
the act rs L participation IN an obvious fraud
sill remains.
Some OF them have Indulget i'll testimony with
reference to the matter Which has been contra.
dlcted. The committee directly rejects the iesti
mony OF several OF the members. This can only
be done on the SrOuni That IL is untrue. But IN
true testimony given under oath is morally,
not legally, perjury.
1t is the clear duty OF congress to visit witt
punishment all who took Credit Mobilier stool
from Oakes Ames.
From the New York Tribune, Rep, February
10, 1873.
james \. Garfield. of Ohio, had ten shares
never paid u dollar; received S329 which, afte
the investigation began, he was anxious to have
considered u loan from MIR. Oakes Aines t,

hoods confessed the transaction to be CIs:5racefu

THE HIGGINSVILLE RATIFICATION

AS had been previously announced,
last Saturday was spent IN Higginsville
in ratitying the national and state dem
ocratc tickets
A large number of people turned out,
though the crowd was not so great as
was expected, owing, perhaps. to the
rain of the night before and the threat
enng day.
Seats were provided near the speak
ers' stand, upon which were sitting
Hon. John F. Philips, Hon. Francis M.
Cockrell. Xenophon Ryland, Esq, and
Capt. 4, A. Collins.
The stand was surmounted by au arch
of evergreens and flags, and at each cor
ner hung a picture.
Near the speakers stand was the band
stand-this was occupied by theMarshail
band. consisting Of nine members, and
which furnished good music between
the speeches.
The speakers were introduced by Cap.
tain Collins, Mr. Ryland being first, then
Col. Philips, and then Gen. Cockrell
The speecheswere very fine ones, ant
quite eloquent. 1t is unnecessary te
speak OF them at any length, as the tai
ents of the gentlemen in this direction
are we'll known.
After Gen. Cockrel had concluded his
| remarks, calls were made for Capt. Col
Inns.
| Like the schooiboy at Il FRIDAY alter
yet the few remarks he made were gooC
ones, and quite witty, too. provoking
bursts of laughter.
Hon Z. NJ. Edwards was next callct
for, and he responded in a few wei
chosen sentences.
Still unsatisfed, the crowd began call
ing for Mr.. John S. Blackwell. Thi
gentleman also responded, and his re
marks were we'll received.
After every one had gone to tow
from the grove, the band played severa
tunes from the piazza of the Occidenta
hotel.
In the evening there was an eXhibl
ton OF fire works, and everything pas:
ed off quietly.
The day was enjoyed by all, the /;
dies even listening to all the speeches
and there is no doubt but that most {
them are for Hancock.

fer company, and to Mr.. George Here

persons, the Intelligencer is indebted fl
