In the night bis neuralgia pains were quite
severe, and his SOD, DR.. Howard Morley,
remained with him until 2 o'clock. and left
him feeling quite comfortable. At half
past O'Clock this morning his son enter
ed his fathers room. and found
him in a comatose condition, aud from
which he could not be reused, and in which
he sremained until the hour named this
afternoon. when he died. 1t is believed

wonted severity, that he took dose of

columns. We also stated il was weak

dispute this. Mr.. JEWELS position is in
direct GEtagonism to the professions of
Republican leaders He charges that the
dispatches published by Chairma an
BarDum have reference to matters
pertaining to Democratic FepeateES which
were supposed to be on their way south.

but the attempt to crawl out of an ugly
dilemma in the shilly shalIy way he does
is evidence OF weakness. He had to make
some reply, koEeyer, so he patches up
sort of your another scd let's it rest
there,
The people will not be foolad by Mr..
JEWELS reply-The people know that the
Republican vote 10 Indians was fraudulent
that the Republican managers will do
every thing possible to steal all the states
they can; that fraud fnds favor with
Jewell and his adjutants. aud that the Re-
publican party is ready to commit fraud
anywhere. If by so doing they can main
tain thoir power, and keep their fist on the
purse-strings of the treasury. They know
also that it was by the basest of frauds
that Samuel j. Tildeu was cheated of his
right TO preside as chief executive of the
nation. These facts the people remember
distinctly. and hence when the dispatches
signed by Marshal Jewell are given to the
public, the people are ready to believe
that the meaning of those dispatches are
as stated by Chairman Barnum. and that
the intention is to use fraud in Florida. to
overcome the legitimate Democratic ma.
iority there.
Marshall Jewell has not benefited the |
party by his reply, nor has he
fooled the people. He has simply clinchcd

foolish to suppose that Democrats would

culvert. 1t was nude. Word was tele-

Eessler and Coroner Bawden were soon at

It was the opinion of DR.. Bawdeu that
the child was born less than twenty four

House OF REPRESENTATIVES,
Washington, D. O., Jan. %,
.19SO.-Dear Sir: Yours, in rela-
ton to the Chinese problem,
came duly to hand. I take 1t
that the question of employees is
only a question of private and
corporate economy, and individ-
uals or companies have the
right to buy labor where they
can get it cheapest. We have a
treaty with the Chinese govern
|ment which should be religiously
kept until its provisions are alb
rogated by the action of the
general government. and L am
not prepared to say that it
should be abrogated until our
great manufacturing interests
are consulted in matter of labor.
Very truly yours,
J. A. GARFIELD.

be known and not be attributed by any
personal motive, we will give few of the
reasons why no Republican ought to vote for
him. He made free declaration to US
that he was never anything else than a

chas. M. Osborn. Esq. at Turner Hall.
Turner Hail was we'll filed last evening
to hear Charles NJ. Osburn, Esq. discuss
political questions from a Democratic
stand point, The speaker made an argu-
menIative speech and received close atten-
ton. He referred to general politics aud
proved by statistics that the Democratic
party Is the best for the people; that the
cry OF solid south was ialiacious aud should
have no influence on the issue; that the
argument that the soath was menace
could not be proven, as the voting p ,p9 IA
ton north was largely 10 excess Of the
voting population south; shat the lesser
nun Der could not rule the larger uumbel.
Referring to the claim made by some
political speakers on the Republican side
that the Dem ocratic vote tor Tilden was
largely 10 The south, Mr. Osborn demon
STRAIT, clearly that the reverse was true !;
'ha, the northern Democratic vote was
largely 10 excess OF tue southern Demo
cratic vote; that in the south. the vote for
Mr. Tiden was nowhere near as large as
the vote in the north for him.
MIR Osborn u ade reference to the liquor
question aud made some excellent remarks
of a conservative character His points
were we'll taken.
He next handled the tariff question
aud prefsccd his remarks by saying that
the charge that the Democratic party was
!
there was line of distinction between
| absolute free trade and revenue reform.
The speaker then referred to some of the
more important points in the tariff and
! demonstrated that moderate arrangement
of tariff duties was best for labor
The point that be made most effectively
wss the fact that protection to q class
and protection to labor were entirely dis
tinct The speakers remarks on the tar
if were argumentative, and expressed his
individual views of what he regarded as
the best mode of arranging tariff laws
He did not advocate absolute free trade,
but favored such policy as would be bene-
fetal to the manufacturer. the laborlng
man and the farmer alike that would bene-
fit all Aide, protecting each.
Mr.. Osborn's remarks were more an
argument than a speech,and we regret
that we have not a verbatim report SO
! that it could be read fully and clearly un-
derstood. The speaker is very cautious
talker, and depended on statistics and
evidence in fact made close. legal ar
gunens 10 support of his position. He
abused no one. bat confined his argument
to facts and figures, dealing with the more
important issues before the people.
