Tony Friends Of GreenviWe County e:
GENTLEMEN-Allow me to express
my sincerest thanks for the kind and
generous support accorded me by you
in the past, and to announce that | will
not, under any circumstances, be a
candidate for reelection to the Legis-
lature, because I find that I am the
source of some discord in the Dem
ocratic party here. There are those
Of the party, Of some respectability, at
least, 10 point Of numbers, who act
and talk as though it we're a matter of
Indifference to them whether any
one, without any one, who at anytime,
saw proper to cooperate with the Re-
publican party, had right to any i'm
munity or consideration from the
Democratic party. This stripe of the
Democracy l certainly regard in no
less uufavorable light than they do
me. 1t is, therefore, under such cir
cnmstances most cougenial to me to
step aside and leave the field to them
to manage their personal and the
party success.
In conclusion, permit NE to say
that whatever may be my course in
the future, politically, the welfare and
interest of the great masses of the peo-
pie who have stood By me, will be
cared for to the utmost extent of nv
humble ability.
I am, very respectfully,
THOMPSON H. COOKE.

Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
11.l 1SSn

WASHJNGTON, u. o.,
Aug. llth, 1880.
What few Federal officials are here
have been lately discussing the proba-
BILE effect of General Garfeld,s. Elee-
tion 9rip.
1t is no secret,-indeed, the less
discreet Radical papers publish the
fact iu adyapce-that the General
came on to consult with the political
managers who we're to run the CAM
paign and the Capitalists who we're to
furnish the means. Of the latter, one
hundred we're to be present, and doubt
less were. No one thinks of COM
planning when politicians meet to dis
cuss campaigns, and, as to the Cap.
italists, they have a right, as Cakes
Anes said in relation to his transac-
tion with Garfield and other Congress-
men, to put their money "where
it will do the most good" The only
question which agitates the Radical
officials here, is as to the presence Of
Garfield while the politicians are di
vidiug the prospective Offices, and the
Capitalists are making terms. All Of
those now here acknowledge that
this is the first time that Presidential
Candidate has ever done any thing of
the kind. They confess to a doubt as
to the final effect, some thinking that
the people will be disgusted; and
other that the people will be over
awed by the published fact 'that
hundred principal Capitalists have
been in consultation with the Radical
Candidate. incline to the former
opinion, and think the Eastern trip of
the Radical Candidate the mistake of
his life. There is very general opin-
ion among the people, from Maine to
Texas, at~tbis tiue, that mere
Capitalists are not the most desirable
rulers.
Mr., Hayes left here yesterday for
Columbusy Ohio, to attend the great
soldiers reunion. He was in his sta.
lion an excellent officer during the
war, and is liked by all the Ohio sol.
;diers. He was offered place in Con-
gress while serving at the front, some
seventeen years ago, at the same time
Garfield, also at the front, was offered
one. Garfield accepted, and Hayes
declined, saying that any one who
would then accept a place of safety
iu the rear ought to be scalped. He
did not know, of course, that Garfield
at that time was accepting "place Of
safety in the rear" or that both of
them would afterwards be Presidential
Candidates, bat in the current of
events the words he then used have
come to be significant and effective
condemnation Of his associate in the
field and in politics. .... 81
The first Comptroller of the Treas

the draft to be paid to receiver, and
the Comptroller reafirmed former
opinion Of Mr.. Guthrie when Secre-
tary of the Treasury, that Govern
