A GENERAL TUMB. OF GREENBAcKERs.

A GENERAL IUMBi OF GhEENBACh Ehs,
A general tumble e Greenbackers into the
Democratic party sca ms to have setin in Indiana.
The Indianapolis 4, qttnel Of Saturday contains a
letter from Jacob i Yeagley, addressed to C. C.,
Post Chairman OF tn GreenbaCk State Commit
Tee, in which Yeagley announces his Withdrawal
frow the Greunback ticket, and declares his inten
ton to support the Democratic party and its
ticket through the remainder of the campaign,
Nj. Yeagley is the GreenbaCk candidate for Sec
retary of State. In his letter he says among other
things:
For the Nationals to continue the struggle and
political fight against the two old parties alike, is
practically to slhp equally friend and foe in their
faces with idiOtiC vehemenCe 10 elect such a
man as Gen Garfield President OF the United
States over so brave, loyal and pure man as Gen.
W. s. Hancock, against whom his political Cppo
nentB nave not been able to make single dero
gatory charge in his long life IL the service Of his
country, would surely be national calamity, II
not worse to which shall give no aid, either di.
Tectly or indirectly.
George Parker, the National candidate for State
Senator from Marion courty Qndianapolis) has
also withdrawn and declared his intention to sup
port the Democratic ticket. Mr.. Parker in his
letter says:
The Greenback leaders say: Defeat the Dem.
ocracy this time and they will all flock to the
Greenback standard" The history Of the Dem.
Ocracy does not warrant any such opinion. II
can stand defeat and still live. Then Is 1t not a
questionable policy to say the least, If not dishon
est 10 seek the defeat of party, a majority OF
" hom are friends TO our cause, and thereby per.
petuate the Republican party in power, who con
fess their hatred of our principles2
The election OF Garfield and Arthur will rele
gate the people to slavery and perpetuation oI
sectional strife and animOsity.
The election Of Hancock and English will be
the harbinger Of peace and unity and the preser
walton Of constitutional liberty to mankind. FJr
these reasons l hereby resign my position as 8
candidate for State Senator Oh the GreenbacR
ticket of Marion county, and will give nay sup
port to the entire Democratic ticket.
EFFECT OF THE MAINE ELECTION.
The changes from the Republican to the Dem
ocratc side since the Maine election is simply as
founding. In some counties the chalrmen haVr
written to have the poll books returned 50 they
could be revised. In eleven counties In indiana
already reported there is a clean Democratic gair
of 7S9 The Republicans at their cOmmitteI
rooms here are as we'll aware Of these gains 81
your correspondent Three weeks ago 1t was no
thought that the Democratic majority In this Stat
would exceed 5000 Now, on fair vote anC
count it will go nearer $4,000 Such energy anc
such vigilance on the part of the Indiana Democ
racy were never known before in this State TIT
campaign the Democrats have made up to tbi
time is remarkable In more respects than one
assert backed by the figures Of the Treasurer o
the State Central Committee, that up to the pres
ent time the entire expenditure Of the State Cen
| tral Committee for campaign PURPOSES has not ex
ceeded S8 O0O Every dollar OF this money haI
| been used in legitimate manner, one half OF
| being expended for supplements and campaign
documents. Itis true that the campaign has cos
| a great deal of money. That Is TO say, all the i'm
mense cost has fallen on the cities, townships anC
| counties. suppose that not less than SS5,OOO ha
| been expended by counties The Democrats q
| Indiana have gone down in their pockets anC
borne up TO this time the heavy expenses OF tht
campaign. They had uniformed the boys, fitted
| up their places of meeting, paid for their drums
polled their own precincts, raised their own pole
and purchased their own flags. They have haC
no OffCehOlders to assess, no barrel to tap, no
even a small keg. The National Democrats
Committee has not placed single dollar into the
| Indiana fight, and up to now only $50 has beel
received from outside States. The Indiana Dem
ocrats are not only making the fight, but the,
| are furnishing the money to do 1t with. Thi
| money has come from no one man or set Of men
| but from two hundred thousand gallant Demo
| Gratis who want to see Hancock elected. They dt
| not ask now, as they had never asked, sny quar-
ter from the Republican party. The Democratic
managers In the present campaign have got NJ
| fraudulent scheme on foot to poll single illega
vote. Their only desire Is that the Republican
will not import 10000 negroes into the State ant

can strongholds, as they did in Madison, Ind, tw
years ago, and as they did in Wayne county fou
