George William SAYS.

New York, 90 George William Cur
tbs, giving the reasons for his conviction
that republicans will carry the state in
Tuesdays election, says: Every reason
which gave Tilden his majority has dis
appeared. Instead Of universal prostra-
ton, to which any change was welcome,
there is universal prosperity. Instead Of
the hope of reform from the democratic
party, the party conspiracy and the Gar
celoh frauds have stripped from it every
pretense of reform. Instead of Loyal
and fraternal spirit of union in the south
ern states, the extra session revealed the
monstrous policy defended by the doc
trines which have justly aroused univer-
sal distrust. The disconnected republi-
cans Of 1876 are solid for Garfield. The
independents, who voted for Tilden
then, heartily support Garfield now.
There is every sign of q popular upris-
ing, of u movement of the people which
sweeps away the politicians and demands
the presidency of an honest, able and e1-
perienced statesman. If there be one
plausible reason for supposing the demo-
Gratis will carry New York, we have not
heard it.

mously resolved to support Hancock and
English, send greetings to their brethren

especially Garfield, has always worked
to promote Chinese emigration to this

The platform on which they stand speaks

Journals New York: 1t now looks as
if Garfield would receive majority in
the state of over 10000, outside of Hew
York and Brooklyn. This would carry
the state By at least $4,000. Following
close 40 on the speech of General Grant
at Syracuse, comes the announcement
that several prominent democrats of the
city have come out for Garfield. Among
them are Thomas Gale, we'll known con-
tractor VIM. t. Hamrlton, president of
the Morris Run Coal Company; John
Greenwsy, the well known brewer; A.

Chicago, % Mo t Of the associates O
the forger Philip are we'll known in thi
city, some OF them having been vel
known as newspaper itemers, and al
nave a most unsavory record. Huntley
who is closely connected with the crowd
has had an escapade in nearly every CITY
where he has worked. He it was who
tirst gave his pal away by telegraphiHp
the facts to a paper several days in ad
vance OF Philips arrest, but the paper.
which once employed Huntley as re-
porter, knew his character for veracity so
well that it did not care to publish the
dispatch, as from its regular New York
correspondent, but placed Huntley's
Eame at the bottom, to indicate that it
was OF doubtful veracity, and RETAINED
from editorial endorsement of the tale,
Huntley evidently let his desire for lucre
overcome his regard for his fliend Philip.

us of the fable Of the dog dropping his

ADo.NothIue Congress.

Inc UemocEaIS IN congress are apout
in the same unhappy condition thev
were when the extra session was draw.
ing near q close. AIAA~+ ~ ~,
.A-ur. .Aat the ap'
preaching national convention is an ad-
ditional reason for embarrassment. Be-
sides having all the appropriation bi4ls
except one on their hands to dispcAe Of
and which are so loaded with I.olitical
riders that they are sure to ioe vetoed
if passed, the time for the meeting OF
the Cincinnati convention is rapidly
approaching, and they will all want to
take a hand in that and after the nomi-
nations are made they will all have
their own canvass to make if they wish
to return to their seats. They have
wasted all the fore part Of the session
in political tonfoolery and thus the
party stands before the country as full
iy identified with stagnation, idleness,
abstraction and national incompetence.
Thus the party stood before when the
people condemned it at the polls, and
the same condemnation is awaiting it
again. No matter how disastrous it
may prove the issue Congress has made
with the President will have to be met
all over the country and will lhava to be
fully discussed before the people in the
public press and on the rostrum, until
the public 9ind shall be in a proper
condition to understand the matter and
to pronounce Judgment.
The Democrats through their obs6-
macy have brought the Federal courts
in some of the States to stand still
simply because they insist in refusing
to make appropriations for carrying on
the courts unless they reap some polit-
ical advantage from it. In New York
the Federal courts oannct be held be-
cause the United States Marshals have
no funds in hand wherewith to psy the
official expenses Of litigation and that
is how it will be here liz Delaware, and
all over the country in consequence o.
their default Of making the necessary
appropriations. 1t was only on Thurs.
day that Senator Window made an
effort to have the long neglected United
States Marshals reimburse for their
outlay of money for the last year or
more in which they have been using
their private funds, ty proposing that
'$6OO,0C0 lie irsertel in the Deficiency
bill for the purpose Of reimbursement,
but his edo.t to have justice done was
all in vRin. Every Democrat in the
Senate voted against the amendment
and it was defeated.
Thus because th9 Democrats cannot
have their own way they are deter
mined to vent their spits on an i'm
portant branch of the public Service
which is to be crippled and the gov
ernment is to be prevented from paying
its just debts.
Let reflective consider.te people take
an Intelligent view CT the case as it
stands and no matter if they are the
most rigid partisars they must unite
in condemning the effort made in Con-
gress to force political legislation.
