was very finely worked, so far as the two

which 1t was given away through the

was not all creditable to the judgment Of

But, the latest bit OF information I have
received here, touching the Senatorial
situation is, by no means, the least inter.

further confuse matters. The accomplish

to 1t as gorgeous lie, ConCoCted in the

TWO MUCH KSowLEDoE.

1nthe last sentence Of the above para.
graph may be found the key 10 the entire
plot. The correspondent In Grafton who
knows 80 well that "both the letter that
was dated from ParkersbnrH, and the one
from Washington were written by Rspub.
llcans," knows more than any Republican
In the State, and perhaps is willing TO en-.
tighten the public by dlyulging their
names. The question arises, is Il not a
little strange that the authorship Of these
letters, which have been denounced BY
the Republican press, should be known 90
well by O Democratic correspondent OF
the Re0iSsr2 It Ia barely possible that
the Register reporter knows even more
about their authorship than be would care
70 state publicly.
0iCourse there is not d word oil truth in
the whole story about there being such
opposition as Is alleged 10 any Of General
GOH 9 aspirations, or that MI. Elkins is q
candidate against him.

WASHINGTON, June THE following
self explanatory correspondence Is made
public this evening;
WAsHISoToS, D. O., May 20, 1886.
Mr. DEAR sIR;-I have decided to place
in your hands my resignation Of the OF.
Gee which you did me the honor to ask
me to accept fifteen months ago. My rea-
sons for this decision are both public and
personal. Since the partial recovery Of
my health has permitted me to reflect
upon the demands ol the public service to
which had given perhaps too freely all
my strength, and upon the conditions OF
resuminH my labors at your side have
not q moment questioned what must be
my present duty.
The full recovery Of my health Is pro.
nounCed to be an affair Of weeks, and .
long period Of rest, especially during the
hot months, is prescribed or, at least, ad'
vised Rs prudent regimen thereafter,
Compliance with this advice would not be
practicable were 10 resume now the gen.
srAl direction OF the Treasury Department,
Even il Rbating something Of the energy
which itsesmed needlul To expend in the
irst year Of my work, supervision at dis
lance would ba more hindrance than a
help 10 the Acting Secretary.
But it Ia not betitting that department
Of the government so difficult and so i'm
portanE should be administered by con-
yalescent studious ol parrylng It's daily
sSacGions, nor that the watGhiul control OF
is enormous influence or the direction Of
ts fiscal policies even under your wise
lead should be attempted by any one
concerned about husbAuding bis strength.
The reforms in our fiscal policy which
you have maintained and which have
oeen framed and commended to the Wis
dom OF the Legislative branch are reforms
necessary 10 our safety, binding in honor,
obligatory in traditions Of the Democracy,
vet down with promises In our statute
book.

HOPES OF THE CAMDRN MEN.

They claim that when the Legislative
tickets are all made up reliable Camden
men will constitute a majority sufficient
to control absolutely the ante-election
caucus at Charleston next winter. Vari.
aus things, they say, have contributed to
oring about this state Of affairs. Mr.. Cam
ien's fight for his amendment to the Inter.
State Commerce bill, his strong speech on
the subject (no less than hundred
thousand copies having been circulated in
the stats), Kenna's prominence as leader
Ot the National Democracy and Governor
Wilson's action with reference to the su D.
elemental Assessment order, are all cir.
cumstances cited as having strengthened
Uamden's chances.
