The New York Independent is an able Republican paper with some re ligious leanings. It is widely read in the North. On July 30, 1874, in an editorial, it said of J-Ames Golyer Garfield : "We cannot forget that Tie teas more deep ly involved in the sad Credit Mobilier difficulty than any other member of the Mouse of Mep resentatites, excepting of coarse Ames: and Brooks. After such an experience, be ought to have been extremely cau&aus. But the testimony taken in the investigation of the District of Colombia frauds shows that Mr. Garfield received $5,000 for his aid io getting through a -paving contract accepted by the District government. A Mr. Parsons, a. . notorious jobber. made an argument lor trie paving company, and then got Mr. Gar field to make a further argument and -to use bis personal mnaence in its favor Of course Mr. Garfield's argument was suc cessful. How could it be otherwise?: He was Chairman of the Committee on Appro priations. Everv cent of money vottd to the District had to come througb him. Shep herd could not affoid to refuse bim any thing he asked, and Mr. Garfield kntw it when be asked and received for his services a fee which would have been extravagant but for bis official position. That is, so far as the case is known to the public, for fo.UUO be was willing to sell to the Mceiel- lan contractor bis lnnuence as a legislator. For $5,000 be was willing to use bis position as guardian of the Treasury of the IS at 100 (o make the District Government award a T . 1 . . ft T promaoie contract. - ; Mr. Bowen was editor then, and he is editor now. That most Republican editors have no principles is very generally believed. That they can deliberately stultify themselves ; on any occasion is shown conclusively by the course of the New York limes, New York TWfott, Philadelphia BuU letii, and scores of other Radical or gans from which we have quoted be fore. Now Mr. Bowen wrote the above when the matter was. fresh in the public mind; and that, too, after the records had been overhauled aod Garfield's guilt established. Bat un fortunately for Radicalism, but most .fortunately for the Democrats, this ame corrupt jobber and briber Garfield--wasTiominaled by Bowen's party for thi Presidency,: so Bowen must forget all ho bas said, tors down his own printed judgment and ay farewellTo truth and conscience. Why do e say so? Xe-Uie reader go back and read what "Bo wen said in 1374, and then read what he says cow.

China has between five hundred million and six hundred million in habitants, or ovei ten times that of the United States.

And what is to binder their coming under the Burlingame treaty and the present Repub lican administration, or, if Garfield should be elected, duiing the four years of his administration ? A revolution, or a famine, or any other incident of a nation's life that . . . . . . disturbs or biuicis, may occur ai any ume in China, and turn a tide of immigration UDon our Pacific coast that might overrun our whole country. Can the mechanics and workingmenof tbe United states auora to leave this P&cific gate wide open to free and unrestricted Chinese immigration and I importation by putting another Hayes in the Presidential chair in the person of Garfield ?" The greatest enemy of tbe laboring classes in the United States are men of the Garfield sort, who favor an extension of the treaty until all em- ployers secure all the cheap labor from China ,theymay desire or need.

If the supporters of John TToIIav hd voted for the Democralio candidale8 in 1879 the majority would have been 34.789. Wo think New York may be oounted as safe for Hancock. His majority will range probably from 20,000 to 40,000. The majority of Samuel J. Tilden in 1876 was 352,165. The total De mocratic vote was distributed as fol lows: North em 2.671,205 Southern 1.615,933 Total 4.287,138 How can the latter control the former the smaller by over a million control the lart?er ' The vote for c Hayes was Notibem 2,927,624 Southern. 1.107,349 Total 4,034,973 The Democrats had but 246,419 less voles in the North than the Rad- ica8 had.

We have no doubt that the white majority for "y 3 Hancock over 329 will be nearly or ' quite one million and a half.

That subsequent to said publication in said Iruili, or in some of them, the proprietor of said Iruth as I am informed and believe, entered into some agreement with the Democratic Na tional Committee, or some members theree of, by which it was arranged that large numbers of said forged letters should b circulaled, and to that end since a denial of Its authenticity by said Gai field, have deliv eied or entrusted Io taid Committee, said forged ktter for the purpose of having same copied and pnoiograpiiett or litho graphed; and that in pursuance thereof said Committee have caused many hundred thousand Copies of said forged letter )o be circulated . iu various-forms, both io the English aud Get-man language?.
