NEW YORK, November 1lth-The Herqlds Ien-
tor, Ohio, special says This evening Garfield Ie-
marked that the Democrats, continuing 20 push
forward the fraud cry in New York daily ex-
tending benefit to the Republican cause and
damaging themselves. 1t is also the general opn-
ion that the Democrats have done what seemed best
calculated 10 cut their threats throughout the
campaign, the forged Marcy letter being brilliant
instance.
CHICAGO November 1lth-The Times Columbus
special says: Garfield said two days ago: " Great
victory was, / believe that the forged Morey
letter cost US all the Northern States We lost. do
not inten! TO let up those rascas until they
punished TO the f1il extent Of the law"

NEw YoR6, November 11th.-The Tribune says
We believe that the Morey letter did have 20
siderable extent the effect that desired and
pected. From various quarters we hear OF laboriug
men who had made up their minds to vote FOX Gar
field a friend Of American labor, who, upon the
appearance Of the Morey forgery, changed their
minds and voted for Hancock. We believe there
are manufacturing districts where this was true to
such extent TO materially Affect the vote, and
there is little doubt that 1t gave The electoral yoes OF
California and Nevada to Hancock. Voters were de-
celyed and cheated What should be done now, is
to make it plain to every voter who deceived By
this fraud that he was cheated, that BarnuiD his
swinded them as if they had pslIned off upon them
counterfeit coin or pinchbaek watch for gold. It
is not enough that the plot failed. Its repetition
should be made impossible. and the originatOFs,
aders and abettors OF it held up 10 public execra-
tion an made infamous. There should be the Tid-
est publication Of facts that man in the whole
land who was scared into voting for Hancock by
this vile cheat shall fail to know that he hiss been
sw inded out OF his vote.
The Herald says 1t is mortify ing to every hon
orable Democrat TO think that die Tesnit OF the
Presidential election came near being determined
by such vile fraud, and would lave been so if the
vote OF New York had been east for Hancock, for
there can be little question that the horey letter
turned the scale against Garfield in both California
and Ne'ada and perhaps in New Jersey also.

NEW YORK. November llth.-The Sua says
The case of Terry the Democratic Elector in Cali
fornia who, whether elected or rot, certainly runs
behind his ticket in very close State emphasizes
the folly OF nominating any body as an Elector who
has anything in his record that men Of his own
party reasonably object to- In Terrys case it s
seen that there may be objections TO individual
Electors in substance as veil as lorna lesson
