LETTER FROM PITTsBURG.

TO DE sCALPED by THE
INDIAN CHIEF VIC.
ToRIA.
Special Correspondence of the DKMocRAr.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 4, 1880.
repeated compliments of Judge
Black to Garfield are not we'll received
by the Democrats here, as they sound
more like the paid praise of counsel
rather than the fair opinion of Dem.
ocratic leader. The Democrats like the
way Bayard handled Garfield much bet
ter than the praise of Judge Black on
De Golyer and Credit Mobilier, for they
naturally think if he is bad man in
one way he cannot be such a pure saint
in another.
BAYARD on GARFIELD.
In his speech at the New York meet.
ing Senator Bayard lays hold of this
doubled. decked hypocrite in about the
right way.
81 will not" says Bayard, "out of a
spirit of false courtesy ascribe to Garfield
virtue | do rot believe him to possess.
He was Chairman of the committee on
Appropriations when corruption and
extravaganza ran riot in Washington
City; when Boss Shepherd and his
crew were drawing tens of millions to
buy rotten pavements in those streets,
with false measurements and double
prices And in all the carnival of
roguery from 1869 to 1875, where was
the voice and the vote OF Mr.. Garfield ?"
GRANTS SPEECH At WARREN
is, when we take into consideration his
taffy TO the South on his trip through
there, perfect turn round. lie has
been filed with the ideas of Conkling
and his party that they will make the
Republican party as sick for not taking
him at Chicago, as Conkling made the
administration for putting out Collec.
tor Arthur. If they dared pull Gar.
field off they would now put Grant in
his place, in the desperate hope of
fighting his way through on close
count. If Hayes would stand mp to
them they would try it, and in the
event of the Republicans polling more
votes in the northern States than the
Democrats, they would set up claim
to the Office. There is no use in dis.
guising the desperation of some of
these Radical leaders. Our Philip
Dougherty, of Harrisburg, used TO say
that "the Republicans would never let
go of power in Washington without
blood" and it does look little that
way, quite frequently. Great as the ex.
element now is, it will be ten times
worse after the October elections on the
18th.
MONUMENT or BULLION.
Our Sunday. school President does not
seem to care much about airing himself
on the California coast. He will hunt
"those golden slippers" il the Indian
Victoria gets after him. The Arizona
papers OF late date say they are getting
up a Bullion monument in the public
square at Tuscan for his innocent gaze.
The various mines of the Tombstone
and the Globe districts are to loan one
weeks production of bullion for an ex.
hibit. The first offer was fifty tons of
copper from the Mule Pass mines, and
100000 pounds OF silver bullion have
been secured from the Tombstone and
IIarshaw districts.
oUTRAGEs IN THE TERRITORIES.

says: Victoria has made his brags that
he will make his own hand take the
scalp of President Hayes, and that his
second chief will take the scalp of Sec.

man. The Indian outrages in New
Mexico are horrible. The Appaches
have surrounded Fort Cummings, and
on the 9th, jumped the mail coach,
killing +. 5. Madden, Isaac Roberts, a
native OF North Wales, and Isaac lie
Bean, who were on their way to Silver
City. The bullet holes showed that
there were sayages on me north and
south of the road, and blood was scat.

OF the stage. Most of the top was torn
off and straps from the hind boot taken.
that's nice country TO emigrate to
from our quiet State. But we can get
up outrages here to match any in the
Newgate Calender. However, one
don't have to carry gun on their
shoulder all day. Hardly anyone shoots
at you without a cause, here, but out
there, the Appaches seem to kill right
and left, without the least provocation
or excuse. The real pressing want In
that country is three or four regiments
OF regular soldiers, and our Democrats
in Congress ought to give the settler all
the protection possible. 1t is sickenipe
to read the papers from New Mexico
and Arizona. The New Mexican papers
publish the outrages in Arizona, and
the Arizona papers publish the outrages
in New Mexico. Its like the account
OF the ague in Indiana. They never
have it right where you are, but right
over there it is terrible bad.
KEYSTONE.
