CAMPAIGN NOTES.

Gen. Banks, who is cauvassing New
Jersey, thinks the outlook is good for the
Republicans.
Surprising that tho Republicans have a
majority IA the next House of Representa-
tivrs, tho Philadelphia Press asks who will
take the the place of leader to succeed Mr..
Garfield, and concludes that Minister kasson,
of Iowa, will he the man.
Governor Stevenson, of Kentucky, who
has lately been in the East thinks that the
Democrats will carry not only Indiana, New
York, New Jersey, but also Connecticut and
California. Pennsylvania, he thinks, will
follow the example of Indiana.
Hon. William NJ. Merricls, of Maryland,
who signed Uncle Luke Poland's Credit
Moblicr report on Garfield & Co., refers i'll
tcrviewers to the report itself. lie is per.
suaded that il was strictly correct and de-
clines to make any remarks upon it. 1t is
clear and compact enough to explain itself.
Judge Merrick is hightoned lawyer and
| styles GarGeld's Dctolycr record rs utterly
unprofsssional.
The Hon. Alonzo J. Ransier has been,
| ever since til. reconstruction days, one of the
most active coorcd Republican politicians in
South Carolina. He has been chairman of
| the State Committee, delegate to the National
| Governor, and Congressman. Since his
unanimous denomination for Representative
| by the Democrats of the Charleston District,
| the Hon. NJ. =. O'Cunnor has received letter
| from Mr. Ransier, in which the writer an
nounccs his purpose to vote for him, and to
induce as many Republicans as possible To
follow his example. "We sadly need, :"
says the colored rx Congressman, 'more in
dependence in political action, and better
| and more harmonious understanding between
our people"
The Richmond Win, which is violently
opposed to the proposed compromise with the
Fumdcr Democrats ON the part of the Read
iusters remarks tlorcupon' "Wo SEQ no
danger in Virginia for Hancock and English.
| We are sure that we can carry our electoral
| ticket with ease over both the grip-sack
Funder ticket and the Funder lobby ticket
We beat these allied funders united last
year, and we can more easily beat them this
| wear, as they arc divided. II is they and
not we who lose strength in this triple fight
II il one Readjuste ticket against two
Funder tickets, and, as We defeated the
combined fuDdcr fore. in 1879 by over
twenty thousand majority, there cannot he a
doubt that we shall next November have u
larger plurality over each OF the separate
factions"
