BY Telegraph to the Sentinel
New York, October 27.--The dispatches
from Ohio report that the Democrats are
engaged in a still hunt. They are holding
secret meetings throughout the State,
hoping that the Republicans, who have a
large majority, will let the State go by de-
fault. The Democrats there have hit upon
an ingenious plan for circulating the bogus
Chinese letter in the manufacturing dis
tricts. Handbills containing the letter
are printed in different languages, with
approving headlines, indicating that it is
circulated and indorsed by Republicans,
thus: "a manly letter from General Gar
field" "No objection to workingmen on
account Of nationality or color" "Manu-
facturers have the right to buy labor where
it can be had the cheapest; any other pol
icy would be foolish and hurtful." The
Democrats in Ohio and Indiana are stalking
their last hopes on this forgery, and by
such devices as this. and by constantly
reiterating the fraud, and ignoring the evil
dence which exposes 1t, until next week,
when they hope to get the workingmen's
vote.
1t is learned that the Democratic Ma
tional Committee intend to withdraw Han
cocks name in Iowa, and the entire Demo-
cratic vote will be cast for the Greenback
electors. which they hope will deprive Gar
field OF the II votes Of that State.
From Indiana the news is that the Dem
ocrats are at work. George G. Gorham has
arrived in indianapolis, and Is at the Re-
publican headquarters at work. The Re-
publicans feel quite confident of retaining
at least the October plurality on Tuesday
next, but there are some local weights
with which the Democrats were burdened
In the State election which are now re-
moved. On the other hand, however,
they are handicapped with English more
directly. STILL. the Republicans do not
feel the strain a. they did . few weeks ago,
but an effort is being made to rouse them
and bring out the full vote. Other specials
from hat State declare that there is q per-
feet stampede from the Democracy, and il
It goes on there viii! DO NO party by that
name there next week.
