Mob, organs may read this from the Herald of 16, with profit: A harrowing paragraph purporting to be a literal extract from a dreadful South Carolina, at Staunton, Va, on July 26, is having an extensive circula- tion in the partisan republican press and furnishes a text for the most pars oxysmal exhibitions of campaign rhet- oric. One journal in this city keeps it standing at the head of it editorial page. It represents Mr. Hampton as urging support of General Hancock for Presi dent on the ground that the political principles of the democratic party are the same for which Generals Lee and Jackson fought in the rebellion. A report of this speech which we have received from Senator Hampton and print in another column does not contain the paragraph in question. We find in it predictions of evil consequen- ces to result from the possible election of General Garfield which are extrava- grant, such as that “we shall behold no more free elections and no more un- trammelled expression of political sen- timent;"” but it contains no phrase which is literally like that which republican journals and speakers put into his mouth nor any which by a fair construction can be tortured into its significance, “Tarn and turn about” is no more than fair. Since the republicans deem that Mr. Hampton's view of what are the principles of the democratic party is so valuable, for the sake of fair play let Ol Wp Any republican who doubts about Garfield being guilty of perjury and dabbling in Credit Mobilier, let him come to the Rsrorrer office, we have here the official document, printed by the government ander a radical admin. istration in 1873, to prove ik Who wants to learn the truth ?

He accepted a Credit Mobilier bribe of ten shares of stock, paid for out of ae cruing dividends, leaving a balance of $329 which he took in cash from Oakes Ames, and then swore to a falsehood about it; He introduced in the House the back pay salary grab, advocated, and voted for its passage.

The peculiar topography of the Atlantic bot- tom off the Carolina coast, it would seem explains also the fact, which has lately excited much surprise, that the immense June flow of ice-bearing water from Newfoundland made no impression on the temperature of the Southern sea board. The summer of 1875, like that of 1880, opened with an exceptionally large number of icebergs moving off the coast southward; but, contrary to popu- lar opinion, these ice masses and the swollen polar stream that bore them had no effect in lowering the air tempera: tures from Nantucket to Florida. Could the icy water have surged up against the shore a different result would have been felt, We may therefore conclude that not only off Charleston, but possibly off Cape Cod also, there exists a submarine barrier projecting out into the Atlantic, intercepting the volume of heavy glacial waler moving south Nestwarlly over the sea bed, and thus securing throughout summer the extraordinarily Bigh tem- perature of eighty degrees, which is ob- served in the western edge of the Gulf Stream all the way from Cape Hatteras up to Nantucket Shoals.

Garflald for speaker, a number of Pennsylvania members of that faith re fused te yote for him. Among the num- ber were Judge Kelly of Philadelphia, Russell Errett of Pitsburg, T. M. Bayne of Allegheny and John W. Killinger of Lebanon, Killinger had been s member of Congress a good many years before and was one of the ablest Republican Repre- sentatives from this State, his district bes ing composed of Dauphin, Lebancn snd Northumberland. He gave his reasons for refusing to vote for Garfleld in the fol- lowing letter, which may be of interest to coal miners, iron manufacturers and wool growers: esty, economy and good government. She is solid for the old flag and & gallant Uni on soldier who bore it in triumph on the field. She is solid against bribery, cor ruption, whisky rings and fradulent con- tracts. In short, she iz solid for the Dem. ocracy and against the Republican party. But I come here to ask you what it Is you fear from the South and why it is you re. fuse to trust the Democratic party on ae. count of its Southern members. You did not fear the South when in arms. You cannot fear any hostile invasion from her now when she has surrendered her guns, You cannot fear a restoratisn of slavery norany claim of payment for slaves, for these things are expressly prohibited in the amendments to the Constitution of the United States, which have been ratified by all our States. The cry that we will bank- rupt the Government with Southern war claims is equally absurd.

If not, how can you have the cheek to dothis before men who are aware of these facts ? Think of this General, when you lie down in your “little bed.” A Apne The N. Y. Herald of Wednesday says: “The Democratic campaign, as prosecut- ed from the headquarters of the Nation- al Committee, is, in the judgment of members of the committee, the most vigorous canvass that has been made in years, Never before, not even im the memorable campaign of 1876, have such enthusiastic advices been received, and never, it is reported, have so many Re- publicans anncunced an intention to support the Democratic ticket. Among the letters received at the headquarters Tuesday were several from gentlemen who have hitherto been in sympathy with Republicanism, but who now say that they intend to vote for Hancock and English.” ee —— Two-thirds of the Republican mems bers of Dahlgren Post, No.113, Gr. Army of the Republic, New York City, which had its annual pic nic and camp last week, are for Hancock, The commander of Dahlgren Post, Joséph Hadfield, is a Republican. When | asked how he would vote in the coming glection he said he had always voted the Republican ticket and intended to vote for Garfield because he was a Republi- ean. When asked why he would not rather yote for so distinguished a sold- ier as Hancock, Mr, Hadfield became quite angry without any apparent reason. “There are plenty of Hancock men in this post,” he said when he became calm again; “almost all the independent sold iers will vote for Hancock, We have 340 members in our post, and the mas jority of [them are Republicans. Yet Hancock will get fully 200 votes from the post because he is a great soldier.

Indianapolis Journal, Rep., Feb, 26, 1873, Every mémber of Congress who de. liberately handled Credit Mobilier stock is unworthy of future confidence, mn. dn —- o—— Our regular army has little hold to defend the right, which to us is THE In reply to the inquiry, I will say that in the vote for speaker we chose the lesser of two evils. e could not elect the speaker and the only significance our ac- tion had wasits indication or expression of cenfidence in the nominee en the great and vital question of protection to our ins dustries and employment for laborers. In my judgement all other questions are sub. ordinate to this, When, therefore, the caucus determined to compliment Mr Garfleld in this way I had to choose be- tween sanctioning by my yole such an acs tion or to express my dissent by withhold. ing it. Mr. Garfleld’s record on this question is wellknown tothe country, and some of it has come under by own obser vation. 1 could not, therefore, pass it by as insignificant or unimportant. Without meaning any disrespect to him I am coms pelled te uy that his status has been equivocal, if not actually hostile, te the opinions we hold in Pennsylvania, I have never found him to stand squarely for protection. He would not be socepted by the Republicans of my district as an ex ponent of their views. I could not com- pliment him with their vote for the speaks ership without manifest inconsistency and doing vielence to all my convictions of duty and principle, No friend of our American system of revenue and finance has ever been complimented with honera. ry membership in the British free trade leagues. The object of these leagues is well known to be the strengthening of British influence in foreign countries. The aim to secure markets here for Britis manufactures and to that extent are hos tile to our home industries, In common with William © Bryant, Samuel 8. Cox and D, A, Wells, notorieus free traders, Mr. Garfield stands in connectien with such a league. Bo long as he retains such connection and does net disavow its per nicious heresies, I do not see how to ac. quit him of holding the opinions of his jritish co~laborers: It needed some reso- lution to express our dissent from the con- clusion reached by the caucus. The Re. publican organization should be main tained by the party's representatives, es- pecially at this juncture, when we are threatened with disintegration in high quarters. But unless wo can at the same time maintain the principles which gave value and vitality to the organization par. ty ties will weaken and our early dissolu. tion is certain, So I chose the lesser of the two evils in withholding the vote of the 14th district from a nominee who fails to be in accord with its people on the greatest question before the country.

The Republicans sometimes say we abandoned the fraud From Judge Poland's Report, Feb, 18, 1873— Garfield's Testimony Perjured. The facts in regard to Mr. Gar field, as found by the committee, are that he agreed with Mr. Ames to take ten shares of Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay for the same. =Mr. Ames ad the eighty per cent, dividend in bonds and sold them for ninetysseven per cent, and also re« ceived the sixty per cent, cash divi. dend, which, together with the price of the stock and interest, left a bal ance of $329. This was paid over te Mr, Garfield by a check on the Ser geant at-Arms, and Mr. Garfield then understood this sum was the balance of dividends after paying for the stock. From the New York Tribune, Feb. 19, 1873. James A, Garfield of Ohio had ten shares; never paid a dollar; received $329, which, after the investigation began, he war anxious to have consid. erd as a loan from Mr, Oakes Ames to himself, Well, the wickedness of all of it is that these men betrayed the trust of the people, deceived their constituents, and by evasions and falsehoods con. who was defrauded.
