versatlon with an ex-army officer and 6
former member of EOsecrans' staff, recently
expressed his surprise that Rosecrans should
have written the letter he did regarding him
The two Generals had always been on GOOD
terms, and just before tile Chicago Conven-
ton Garfield went to the Patent Office al
Washington and arranged for the granting Of
certain favors which Rosecrans had bsen
very DESTROYS OF getting, and which
he thought would set him free from
severe pecuniary trouble. Said Gar
field: did not receive the
papers that granted Rosey what he
wanted until after the Chicago Convention. l.
then forwarded them to him with polite
note. and received in reply letter of the
warmest thanks. Letter L heard from Ros-
enccans regarding his party principles, which
he said were Democratic, and he asked that
l should not regard it as any slight on me
personally, whom he had the highest regard
for that he should vote for Hancock | re-
piled that | had never let politics interfere
with social or other pleasant relations, and
| should not feel offended in the least
at his voting for the candidate
whom he felt that he ought to vote for.
Soon after I learned that Rosserans had
said severe things of me, and when called
to task on account of his former commenda-
tion of me, had replied in a letter, saying that
many a man had committed deeds during the
interval between his first praise and criticism
OF NE for seventeen years that should send
him to the Penitentiary." did he really
do that?" asked the officer. who was uni
formed. 6 Yes, replied Garfield, in tones of
just indignation, land after his former pro-
testations of friendship, and what | had done
for him as friend, L felt as if | could
scarcely forgive him. l can think well of the
old Rosy for his services to his country, but
certainly cannot commend the acts of the
present Rosy, when they are so contrary to
ones sense of what is honorable"
THE OUTLOOK IN NORTH AND SOUTH CARO-
CHICAGO, October 21st.-Tha Inter. Oceans
Washington special says Cashier Whelpley
of the Treasury returned 10 the city from
North Carolina to-day, where he went two
weeks ago in company with one of the
officials of the Second Controllers Office to
ment. From what he heard and saw in that
State, Mr.. Whelpley thinks there is very
good chance of the Republicans carrying the
State in November.
A letter from prominent Republican at
Aiken, S. c., says the Democrats are very
bitter since the Indiana election. He fears
that there will be trouble at the Republican
meeting next Saturday evening, as the local
Bourbon paper has called for few thousand
red shirts to attend.
THE FORGED LETTER.
BosToN, October 21st.-Inquiry among the
leading business men in Lynn, says tie Bos-
ton Tqdgeller, shows that no such man as H.
l.. Marry, to whom General Garfield is
alleged to have addressed the letter on the
Chinese question, ever lived there in 1873,
nor has such Labor Union as the Employ.
ers' Union ever existed there.
PROPOSED DEMONSTRATION.
CHICAGO, October 21st-The arrangements
for grand street-parade of the industrial
classes of this city next Saturday evening,
in favor of Garfield, are progressing favor
ably. II will be one of the most imposing
demonstrations ever Witnessed here.
BETS EVEN ON NEW YORK.
CHICAGO, October 2lst-Bets are even on
New York that that State will give 10000
Republican majority.
NEW YORK AND CALIFoRNIA
CHICAGO, October 21st.-The Inter Oceans
tow is confident that the Republicans will
carry New York. They need only keep
quiet and take advantage OF their opponents
blunders.
information received from California to-
day states that wonderful change has come
over that State since the October election.
Before that the Republicans were suffering
from stagnation. Now the whole State is in
a condition of political excitement, and Re-
publican clubs are being formed everywhere
No fears are felt as to the result, and Garfield
will carry it by larger majority than ever
given to any Republican candidate.
THE PRESIDENTIAL. FIGHT VIRTUALLY ENDED.
New YORK, October 21st-The Herald,
in an editorial on the general result, says:
At this moment the best informed men of
both parties believe that the Republicans are
more than likely to carry the election, and
the question is mainly, in the minds of such
men, question of majority. In July and
August the probabilities were entirely the
other way. The writer enumerates the
causes, among which, of course, are the fall
elections and the foolish letter from General
Hancock, intended for the latitude of New
Jersey, which has done woeful damage to the
Democrats there and elsewhere Speaking
OF the tariff, the writer SAYS Whoever
wants to see the tariff maintained who
ever wants to see the navigation laws
changed, whoever favors subsidies and grants,
ought to vote the Republican ticket. Gen
eraI Hancocl1's letter, and other attempts
to befog these matters, to the contrary not
II any workingman any
where believes that it would iniure him or
his interests to alter the tariff at this time,
he should vote the Republican ticket, no
matter what sort of contradictory appeals are
made to him at this late day in the canvass
by Wells, Hewitt, Bayard and company.
The Democrats were quiet all summer on
this vital question. They would not speak
for free ships, because they feared to lose
Maine. They would not speak for revenue
tariff. because they were afraid of being hurt
in Ohio and Indiana. They got General
Hancock to write an absurd, straddling let
ter in contempt of the platform, to help
them in New Jersey and Connecticut. All
this time they were saying to themselves,
Only let US get in on some pretext or other,
and then we will carry out the platform.
PROCEEDINGS AT TAMMANY HALL.
New YORK, October 2lst.-At meeting
Of the Tammany Hall Committee on Organ
zation, at which John Kelly was present,
General Spinola vigorously denounced the
Republican candidate for the Presidency. and
spoke of him as a free-trader," as an
enemy to the workingmen, and by many
other titles. "These Chinese" Spinola con-
5inued, come from China and Japan. They
already have all but monopoly of our
washing. and it would not be long, under
Garfeld's rule, before they would monopolize
other branches OF business. Something
should be done to prove to the |
people that the Republicans are in
avor of these yellow-faced, almond-eyed |
Jelestials," and he moved that committee |
De appointed to provide means to bring the |
acts in this matter before the country. |
Michael J. Sigorson called attention to what |
ne claimed to be the unprotected state of the |
Democracy throughout New York State.
5gorson said he had been speaking in Ulster
county for the past few days, and had oppor-
uuities of judging as to the state of the cam
1ass. "There were several things that struck |

contrary, were ciamoring for documents, but |

Il this matter.
