THE CAMPAIGN.
The American people are nearing the
end of a political campaign for the
presidency of this great country, which
for bitterness on both sides has scarcely
been excelled in the history of the
CQUtifry; The election of 187S resulted
in the triumphant victory of the Demo-
cratic Efwiy, by a majority pf mere than
aquatler f a'mflliaa of Vote er rfibr4
than were cast by something more than
five such States as . .North . Carolina.
vlH iaspfecfes'tfif fctiikery such is was
jiever before seen on the American
continent, the will of the people was
suppressed, and a president inaugurated

augufated ty the Democratic, party
through their representatives in Con
gress, has already inspired such confi
fidence and just faith in the publiccred
it among all classes, bankers; merchan,ts
farmers, workingmen and even the
trustees of the widow and orphan, that
our federal securities have been brought
home, and now out of the $1,700,000,000
of interest bearing debt, barely $200,
000,000, probably not much more than
$150,000,000, remain held abroad.

fame is paling in the light of history
and fiscal. science h comparison with

Treasury under Jefferson and Madison.
It was toy a eAacJaUcadmlnistratioii
that our successful sub-treasury sjistem
was adopted. -It was by a Democratic
administration that the national debt
was once paid and extinguished. -It
was a Republican Congress which
created paper debts a legal tehderCoVer-;
riding the constitution under an alleged
war necessity. It was a Republican
Congress which inflated that currency
af ter.the war and all pretence of the ne
cessities ef-war-weraJrjncr Dast'vf
' lVas aRe'prAjlic.ln Presidenli who'
packed the Supreme Court to reverse
its. decision-against the constitutionals
ty'of paper detts mtide legal tender.
It was Republican administrations
which have reissued and even increas
ed the paper debts caed legal tendeFj
which the packed Supreme Court itself
fiiarl only excused under a war necesst
ty.
It is Republican votes which have
left the nationto-day without one bar
rier in its constitution and laws, as ju
dicially interpreted, against such an
otner muation as mat irom wliich we
are just beginning to emerge.
These are the landmarks in our finan
cial history. Driftwood has floated
hither and thither during the last fif
teen years, deceiving many good men
in both parties. But these are the
landnjfls :
Our'caramities have been in their or
igin and in their long continuance due
to Republfcan legislation. The begin
nings ot prosperity fallowed the victo
ry of the Democratic part y. in 1876.
That change the Democratic party
now seeks to perfect, and to prolensr
that prosperity by the election of Hari-
eck.

THE CHINESE LETTER.
: The Garfield j cheap labour letter was
rthe suMecfcof interest -at the Heftdquar
ters of both committees to-day. Clerks
were at work in the Democratic rooms
wrapping up for the mails aidoumft
aaui esseu tu tue tmirusiriai classes anu
containing extracts from the Garfield
letter. Thousands of copies were be
ing prepared.
i It was. again whispered to-day that
lien IJutler had a ftnger in it and the
proper time he would bring forward
his proof. Ti'uth also claims that it
can bring forth sufiMent evidence to
show tliat the letter &" genuine . and
will begin either to-morrow .orjnejct
day an elaborate explanation, T running
over twaer three a&ys.
St is fumbred tJ-night that the edi-
tornd propneters of Truth are to be
ajrested for circulating the letter in or
der that Chairman; Jewell may have
a cnance to telegrauh over the country
that he has the forgers in jail. At Truth
othcetthe repay to. this was f that they
wished the Republicans would arrest
them, for they are prepared to prove
the genuineness of thp letter. It is al
so said to-night' that the paper wil,
print f aC'Similes of H. L. Morey's origi
nal letter: to Garfield as taken bv his
copy press and found among his effects
rue reeling over this letter is very
bitter and, virulent. As a consequence
the telegrams from Garfield do not re
ceive any credence with the Democrats
and the opponents of Garfield. They
claim to be convinced of the authen
ticity and genuineness of the letter.
They have,sf brhittexf ife to ill thertests

Garfield are ready to make affidavit
that the letter is in Garfield's handwrit
ing. The teommittee took 'other steps
to confirm their belief, and are now ab
solute! v certain of -the genuineness of
the letter. If they had any doubt of
f this thfey: would scorn to use fhe letter."
"What is being done with it?
' airt the first place we telegraphed the
text of it to every State committee, and
have had it published broadcast all over
the count ryfand in the next place we

"What will be the effect Y"
"Why, that will give us New York.
New Jersey. Connecticut. California,
Nevada, and probably Pennsylvania
and. Indiana."
'.Has the committee yet felt the new
impetus to the Hancock cause you re
fer to?'
"Certainly, certainly. Why' a leading
Jersey Democrat tow me to-day that
this letter had put a set of new back
bonen of the stiffest kind in his people,
and the shrewdest men now felt certain
that they' would not only sweep the
Stated for Hancock, English and Lud
low, but would carry the Legislature,
which elects a United States Senator,
and would make several gains of con
gressmen. From all parts of the Union
the news comes that Garfield's Chinese
letter has caused a perfect revolution in
public Sentiment, and that the Hancock
tide is now rising rapidly."
So the handwriting is on the wall.
The American workman reads it and
interprets to Garfield : "Thou art weigh
ed ih the balance as between the rights
of American labor and the arrogance
ana seihsn greed or organized capital
in the hands or soulless and unscrupu
lous monopolists and found wanting.
Our President you' cannot be. The

perpetuai motiom and flying machines
1iavi4.;be&V,S48free 6f late i years. At
least they have not turned up at the
patent office as frequently1 as they did
six or eigliii . years since, when there
were nearly a doaen appliQantSE for the
s u mosel re Ward of 8 io.oOO. which is
huglvt f$ : :b kept " there .ifOr ; thfe 'suc
cessful inventor of either of tiiese ma-,
chinesi. Of course there is no reward
at tlidpatent office5 for thosiiyentions
and never' was, bul this" does' not "pre
vent persons f rom applyiag for ii.: A
young Englishman reamed Richards 'ar
pearecl.at the patent office '6'-day "with
what lieclaimed to be the only .'-perfect
flying machine yet invented. There
have been numerous patents issued for
flying machines, but none of them have
been ot any practical value. The ma
chine offered by the young man to-day
was not umiKe tne others that have
from time to time appeared, consisting
of an .immense pair of wines, which
were operated by a double spiral spring
contrivance of rubber. The theory was
that one spring vould wind up while
the other spring was playing out, and
that the machine would keep flying af
ter it was once put into operation by
being thrown from a high ; place. The
enthusiastic inventor was prevailed up
on by some of the employes of the pa
tent office to give the machine a toss,
so that they could see now it would
work. The inventor, being perfectly
confident of the workings of the ma
chine, took a position on the main por
tico, facing on F street, and began the
preliminaries. The machine was not
large enough to carry him with it,
though he said it could be made large
enough to carry a than or a man's
weight with ease, or even more if desir
ed. A large crowd was attracted by
these preparations. At the proper mo
ment he threw it into the air, having
attached a cord to it so that it would not
fly away too far. It made several bird
like motions and then plunged towards
the ground, striking the pavement with
much force, dislocating-the machinery
and breaking the spring. The crowd
laughed, but the inventor gathered up
the crushed mass, and said after he
made some little improvements and fix
ed Up the breaks he would come around
again and give another exhibition, be
ing confidant of success next time.
Account of the Killing- of Victoria.
Chicago, Oct. 27 A dispatch receiv
ed at the military headquarters yester
day gives the particulars of Col.
Joachim Terrasas victory over Vic
toria's band of Indians. The Mexicans
attacked Victoria on the Castillo moun
tains surrounding his forlifieU position
and by simultaneous attack capturing
it. Victoria's 60 warriors with 18 wo
men and children were left dead on the
field. Sixty-eight women and children
and two white captives were taken,
and 16S animals recovered with all the
arms and plunder. Terrasas lest 3 men
and 12 wounded, thirty Indians escaped
through being too late on the ground,
but a competent force is pursuing., Col.
Buell, through whose hands the dis
patch passed, says this is one of the re
sults of our movement into Mexico and
virtually ends the war with Victoria.
I think I shall be able to head the small
party that escaped. I shall reorganize
here having columns for operation both
east and west.
