REvIEw oF THE oAMpAIeN.

Well, the late campaign being over, it
may be well to note one or two Of its pc
culiar points and phases,
AS usual, the whole stock in trade of
the Republican journals and leaders, was
a base appeal to prejudice, to arouse sec
tional hate, and fanatiCism,
Their candidate for President and
Vice President were both smirched by
their own party authorities, and had
been condemned by their leading jour
nails as men unworthy of public conf
dence, They had been charged and
shown to have been guilty of perjury,
bribe-taking, corruption and maladmin-
istration by Republican authorities; and
all Democrats did was to reproduce these
charges and statements.
Republicans did not deny the record
referred to; nor did they attempt refuta-
ton. They acted on the old mon
archial rule, that the king can do no
wrong. They met us with no argument;
appealed not to justice and right; cared
nothing for the Constitution Of the coun-
try, nor their own consistency.
The Republican party is the party of
despotism. 1t is not governed by
reason; makes no pretension to consist
ency; perpetrates fraud and rejoices in
it; takes up for Office men they them
selves have pronounced unworthy of
honest consideration and confdence;and
cram down the throats of the people
their own crimes and inconsistencies,
regardless of the ten and all other COM
mandments.
Where are they, for example, and how
have they met the Chinese question p
They pretend to be the party too, of pro-
lection to American labor in face of their
Chinese record. They are the party of
monopoly, and we take it monopoly is
not favorable to labor, nor to the true
interests of the people. Labor and hon
est business are the great interests Of the
people and monopoly is their enemy.
Let workingmen consider these points.

THERE is great deal Of comfort to
Democrat to have Republican whisper
in your ears, if you had done differently
what might have been the result. We
do know, however, hat the Democracy
presented a candidate whose military
record was without reproach, and whose
private life was without stain. We 10
know the Republicans presented man,
who, according to their own testimony,
was unworthy to I'll any public station.
Yet had Hancock been an angel of light,
and Garfield the vilest wretch on earth
the Republicans would have accepted,
We can submit to any humiliation ex'
cept Republican advice.--PiAs Post.

stout boots when they go outside. The
wards are clean and fairly ventilated,
but pure air is regarded as so great cur.
ative agent that every day every patient
not confined to bed is taken out, either
to the walled airing court or given the
entire freedom of the grounds, accord

gets the benefit of it, and with it the
entire freedom of the vast grounds.
Those who are old and quiet, live in the
cottages, a, d have absolute freedom to
come and go as they please about the
premises. This system Of latitude rath-
or than restraint has been a great feature
in securing for the London Asylum the
enviable reputation it enjoys.
In the winter, when there is necessar-
lily less of the time spent out of doors,
means are provided for amusement in
doors. Every Tuesday evening the pa
tients have a dance, and every Tuesday
evening an entertainment of musical
or dramatic character is given. These
are much enjoyed by the patients, and
they speak of them afterwards with
pleasure, and we'll recolleCt the perform
ances. Exlrdvaganzas of all sorts please
the best, and the average minstrel per-
formance will fiud more appreciation
than those of b tier class. This is nat
ural enough. They are amused without
any effort of their own wi |, and that is
the object sought For several seasons

the largest in Canada, and, with few ex-
ceptiJns, the largest on the continent

Ex-SHERIFF Bernard Reilly of New
York city, says 10000 illegal votes were
cast there for the Republican ticket; and
this accounts for the loss in the Demo
cratic majority in the city. He claims to
know whereof he afirms by his own
district, where the Democratic vote is as
large as ever, but the Republican has in
creased 800 more than its usual Repub.
lican vote. From what he knows he
judges and comes to the conclusion
above.
If the above can be shown we doubt
not the present Democratic Congress
will do their duty and protect the rights
and liberties of the people.

THAT CHINESE LABOR LETTER

Written by General Garfield to H. L.
Morey is not settled question, as it was
taken into the U. S. Court, and is not yet
disposed of. Hence it is living ques-
ton
Our readers will find in this paper
some valuable testimony given on the
Philips trial last Saturday. The one sided
ness of U. S. Judge Davis has been ex-
hibited all the way through. The afida-
Wit Hart, publisher of Truth, will also be
found in this paper, and will be found
interesting reading. 1t will be seen that
Marshall Jewell of the National Repub-
lican Committee, attempted nice little
scheme; and now gets additional expo
sure.
Philip was arrested upon a direct
charge of forgery, but upon charge of
criminal libel. The case has proceeded
sufficiently far to show conclusively that
he is innocent, and the prosecution has
been forced to exhaust every expedient
for delay to prevent Philips counsel from
carrying out their avowed purpose of es-
tablishing beyond cavil that the letter
was written by General Garfield and re-
ceived by Mr.. Morey. The principal
witness for the prosecution has been
shown by the testimony Of well known
Republicans, given in open court, to be
unworthy of belief under oath. The evil
dence Of the Postmaster at Washington
has been entirely overthrown and its in
correctness shown by his own admission.
The existence of Morey as the agent OF
the Employers Union in Lynn has been
positively established by a number Of
witnesses, including his own MOTHER
The most extraordinary evidence of all
is that afforded by the letter of Marshall
Jewell, chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, to General Garfield
This letter Mr.. Jewell admits to be gen.
uine, and it is so plain that he is entire
ly unable to explain it away. 1t shows
that he promised the friend and counsel
of the publisher of Truth a 'considera-
ton, meaning high Office, to which
Garfield would appoint him if he would
admit that the letter was not genuine
and suppress proofs in his possession
which he had shown to Jewell--that is
to say, willing to bribe it to admit the
truth of the charge. These facts and cir
cumstances clearly establish that General
Garfield is the author of the letter which
he so tardily repudiated. He has himself
described the sentiments of this letter
as stupid and brutal, although he very
distinctly advocated them in Congress
The Chinese labor question directly
affects every industrious citizen. The
present attitude of the Republicans il
that while pretending great friendship
for the laboring man, they favor policy
which would reduce our artisans to the
level of Coolies for the benefit Of monop
olists-that laborers should be bought a
the cheapest possible rate.

THAT LETTER.

Its Identity Clearly Established -AfldsVIt OF q
Gentleman to Whom MOreY Showed the Orig
lnal Document.
New York, Nov. 1.-The following dis
patch was received at the National
Democratic headquarters at lilo this
morning:
Cumberland, Md, Oct. 81, 1880.
W. H. Barnum, Chairman: The fol-
lowing affidavit of Robert Lindsay is au.
thentiCated; Robert Lindsay being duly
sworn, says that he resides in Allegheny
county, Md; that he is personally ac-
uuainted with Henry l. Morey. whom
he first met in 1874 and since at Lowell
and Lynn, in the state Of Massachusetts,
also in Boston and Philadelphia; that
said Morey has frequently spoken to de"
ponent on the subject OF cheap labor,
and that in Boston on or about February
4th, 1880, said Morey showed to depon-
ent several letters from prominent indi'
viduals relating to the subject of cheap
labor: that three of said letters were
frym Hon. Jas. A. Garfield; and depon-
ent further swears that one Of the letters
then and there shown him by Henry L.
Morey was the identical, so.called Chi
nese letter, which is now matter Of
public controversy, or at least the words
were the same as expressed In said let
ter, and that he recognizes the engrav-
ing and photograph Of the letter shown
him by said Moey on the said 4th day
of February; that said Morey expressed
determination to 60 from Boston to
New Orleans, and deponent says he has
not seen him since.

THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION.

THE RESULT OF THE ELECTION.
The news from New York state to day
Thursday, is that the Republicans
claim it by 10000 majority instead of
10000. But no figures are produced to
substantate this.
Fhe World estimates Garfeld's major.
ity at 5000; but a reduction is hourly
going on.
New Jersey, Nevada and California
have certainly gone Democratic, and
New York is evidently close. We have
not as yet seen figures from that state to
Justify the claims of the Republicans.
New York may be set down as doubtful,
at this writing. The Republicans are
less jubilant than they were yesterday.
The result hinges upon the Empire
state. If that state is for Hancock he
is elected II not, he is not elected.

The Pacific states have done nobly.
California seems to have gone for Han
cock, and elects three Democrats and
one Republican to Congress. Nevada
has gone Democratic, by which we gain
a United States Senator and Congress-
man. Reports from Oregon indicate it
has gone for Hancock. Colorado re-.

President is doubtful.

It will be seen from the above that
London stands head and front above all
other Asylums in respect of Cures-a
tribute to the efficiency of the mode of
treatment. Another point showing the
high rank of the London Asylum, is the
fact that during the year 90 patients
were released from all the Asylums on
probation. OF these 92, go or nearly
two.thirds were from London, and 80
per cent OF these were afterwards unCon-
ditionally discharged as recovered. A
few such facts as these, cleaned from Of
fetal returns, are conclusive proof that
no praise is too high to accord to Doctor
