*ME PARTY of VILAIID
The Democratie party has become
a party ,of Fraud. It could almost
be indicted in a court of Justice for
endeavoring to obtain votes tinder 1
false pretences It has been already
arraigned, tried and condemned .st
the bar of public opinion, for attempt
ing to deceive and Mislead the voters
of the country The nomination Of
HANCOCK was an attempted fraud.
The uniform of's Union General s was
used just as the rebels used the,4lue"
during the rebellion, -to r deceiVe - tind
capture the boys on picket duty,. QT
to get within the Union lines. It
iiwas vainly imagined that the name
and'faine of a brave , and 'respected
Union General would not only wipe
out all the memories of the past, but.
would cover' all the rebel schemes
Ind purposes of the present. It was
an attempted fraud, at which th.e
Confederates cornplacentlY smiled,
expecting the worth to be hoodwink
ed into its support, and confident in
their ability and power to. manage
matters should iiixrocx be elected.
This . was a failure, as theynion sol
diers, determined to " vote as they
-shot," and would. not follow the Gen
eral into the camp of the enemy. .
' The Perna-retie platform declares
for a "tariff for revenue only." The
alarmed manufacturers of the cowl , .
try ' showed such a disposition to sup
port the party of protection and vote
for GARFIiLD, that. the Democratic
managers have attempted another
fraud. Ilitxcoex's declaration. that
the tariff was 'a ".local issue," was
unfortunate for him, and the - Octo
ber elections brought forth his fa-
mous ante-dated tariff letter, which
was the most transparent fraud of all.
The dernonsttations of the business
men and operatives throughout the
country has made a wonderful .phange
in the views of.the Democracy. They
are now: only reliable tariff party.
" POLK, DALLAti and . the Tariff of
1842," is outdohe by the frantic cf. ,
forts of the Democrats to delude the
country. The spectacle is simply dis
gusting. '
Fraud having failed, recourse is I
now. had as a last resort to Forgery.
a forged letter purporting td be
: from
Gen. ' . GAIIFIELD to one MOREY, of
Lynn; Mass., is . published by author
qty of the Demociatie National Com
mittee, in - which.he is made to favor .
Chinese labor, and express a sent'ments
antagonistic to the interests of ..the:
laboring men of the country. .This
vile and inipudent' forgery - •is dis
proves by the prompt and emphatic,
, denial of Gen. GARFIELD himself that
he never wrote such a letter, and.nev- .
ei heard of such a man as MOREY, by
the testimony of .experts as to his
handwriting; and finally . by the au
thority of .the Post master at Wash
' ington who states. that the post mark
on the envelope is an . imitation of
one which was not in 'use when the
pretended letter was dated, and could
not have beevused at that,tirne. It
I /
any evidence *-as needed-, enough has.
been produced to convince every holi
est man that the fetter waso, forgery
'of the blackest kind, and it would
be supposed that it would be prompt
ly • disclaimed by the . Democratic .
niapagers. Such 'is not fact ; ;in their
'desperation. the Demoeratic leaders
seem not only to be lost to fairness
and decency but to'bave parted with
their good' sense.. . their! despair
they forget that the 'people are intel
ligent and honest, and cannot be iris:
leid by falsehood and fraud: The
balk-boxes on Tuesday next, will
teach them a. lesson,- and learn 'them
.that the American people • Will never

sanction nor endorse such a campaign
of Fraud and Forgery, by ja trium

lIIIANCOCIL AND TIIE TARIFF
Some, . two weeks ago, the edi
‘or of. ; the Paterson Guardian, a
Democratic paper, had a conversation
•
with .General HANCOCK on , the sub-
ect of the tariff, and in the next is
sue of that paper reported what tht
General - said. The object of the .v is
it appears to have been. to get some
expression "of. - his 'views that; would
quiet the alarm` that a great many
Democratic Manufacturers were be
ginning to manifest lest ; the success
of the Democratic'party with its dec
laration iu favor of " tariff for reven
ue only" , might endanger and des
troy the manufacturing interests o
the country. The editor of the Guar
dian introduced the subject by tell-
ing the General that ;the tari ff ques
tion was
. creating .IC great deal of
talk among the manufacturers and
workingmen otraterson, and asking
how the thing was going to work.
To which, after some preliminpry.ob
sdrvations, Gen. Hiscocif made the
following remarkable .answer :
• • • The election of a Democraticfpresldent
or the election of a Republican President cannot
Interfere with or influence that in the least. The
Paterson people need have no anxiety whatever
that I will ever favor anything that Interferes with
the manufacturing - or Industrial Interests of the
country. They will have Lust as much, proteition
under Democratic administration as under Repub.
tiesn administration. The tariff is a /o
ral question. The tame question was brought up
once in, my notice place in Pennsytrania. It is
a matter that• the general government 'seldom
cares to Interfere - with, sad nothing Is likely ever
to be done that will Interfere . , with the Industries
of the country.
•
That a man thought by one of the
leading parties of the country fit to
be President of the United- States,
should saY anything- so excessively
silly and betraying such astonish
ing ignorance as is here displayed
would be incredible, if the evidence
that, he-thus spoke was not dear and
positive. "The tariff,is a losial goes
tion !" and '" a matter that the gen
eral government seldom cares to in
, terfere with!" .I*.to commentis tieeded
on such an extraordinary exhibition
as General HANCOCK Las here made
-of his ignorance and his unfitness to
1
fill thif vivo to which he aspires: •*lt
wseil4 difigrorm a iieboolboy twelve
years of • agiii - and' 'we lbould think
intelligent Democrats would recon
sider theirintentions of voting for a
tnan)proved out of his own month to
be so , totally deficiCnt bnowledge
of publiC matters Wye:sting wbichall
men of ordinary intelligence are fa-
MI IST
,
.:Some doubts having been expresar4
ud whether Ahe above report of his -
conversation was correct, the editor
if the t ,kluardian called on General
HANcoCK again, and,rtspecting what -
tben occurred, made' the following rp
statement in a subsequent issue of 1
his paper : ' . .
I
"General IlAxcocit was visited agalnon Satur
day by a Guardian representative. It was not a
newspaper 'lwetriew. , lioweve!, and the Infortir.
don obtained Is hot reportable at the pritent time.
We only refer b;,lt to say that General itANcocw
carefully perused the Int i enrlew published luSatur
dars Guardian as reported aboir. and pronoune
°ed it correct, It lug Subitantlally Just what he
said In every res et. 'and espeelally that pat re
ferring to the qu stion of thetiaritf." -,
Since the Indiana n- eleetio I
how
ever, the eneral appears to have
,discovered bat the r i esident and
OR general ',Fovernme t may lave
something t do with t e tariff, and
in a letter addressed to ei-Governor
RANDOLPH of- New Jefsey, bearing
date the 12,th fast:, but • not -made
public And probably not es written till
after the' result of the Western eta
tions was known, he..made a-chanff . e

of base, and declared•:
"I am too sound an American to advocate any
departure fro the genami featUres of a policy that
has largely been instrumental In building up our
industries and ken ping Americans from the coin.
Witten of the unpaid labor of Europe. • •, •
Ail part les agree that the best_ way for us to.ralse
revenue is largely by a Tariff. So far as we are
concerned, therefore, all talk about 'tree trade 'lb
•
And ho concludes byideclarlng himself favorable
to a tariff that will by 4,Judlclous,Just,'hartnotilous.
and incidentally pro ctire, as well as stable lilts
effects." -
General HANCIIIICK is therefore on
record,first as approving the pI.A
-fOrm of the Cincinnati: Convention,
".a tariff for revenue only," next as
declaring that the tariff is a "local
question," resilecting which the.geii
eral government has little Or no , thing
to do and lastly - as in favor of an
"incidentplly proteclire" tart", And
it is now said he is writinianother
letter upon the mlbject with a design
of satisfying the friends of the- pro
tective system that he is ,entirely
sound oh-that question. • But he has
alreSdy written and 'said trp much,
His letters .hlready written, and
his'verba.l utterances have / mortified
his friends and made hini - the laugh
ink-stock of , his political opponents.
Ssith such an exhibition as he has
Made of himself in his treatment of
this question' (the ,only Zino be has
-undertaken.to discuss since his ac
ceptance of the nomination) even
Democrats who do. not , wish to see
the country disgiaced by the election
of an incredibly ignorant and incom
petent matt to_ the ,Presidency, ought,
and some of them we believe will,
join along with us in rejoicing that
the handwr,iting on the walls of Ohio
and Indiana give perfect assurance
that HANCOCK IS nOt to ,occupy the
chair Of WASHINGTON.

AT a large meeting at the Academy of
Music, in Jersey t f lty;!,Thursday night,
held under the auspices of the Boys in
Blue, General GRAN'T .was introduced by
General Jottx RAMSF.I, commanding that
organization; and was ~received with pro
longed applause. In the course) of his
spee - ch he said .he l had been traveling
around the world a little, had seen the
people, and could tell those of New , Jer
sey that the Republican ticket-"at tote ap
' prod:Chingelection is going to have the
vote of a solid north,, including Now Jel-i
sey, which used to be !called a foreign
State,. but ' bait redeemed , herself on sev
eral occasions. •he said, ."I like the
-Democ'tats ; some of my best frit4is are
among the Democrats, but I think they
should let. the Republican part,;,-.run this
gOvenament until they can give us better
assurances than any they ,have yet that'
they would run it:in the sameway." He
created much amusement by remarking:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have been re
quested to serva.,aa-F'resident-tbiS is my
third term." He was followed bfGeneral
BISHOP, of Ohio. He afterwards made
an address at the Tabernacle; and subse
-
quently Ono at the Opera House.
' lialVcocres letter on ;the Rebel war
claims did not cause him toloMe the prom
ise of, a, single • electoral Vote in.the Solid
South .orthe,brippOrt of a single Concert- ,
erate, Brigadier. The Solid South' Ilinows
that the Southern dog 'will wag its North
ern tail, when the time comes: Neither
will the letter on the tariff which the In
diana and Ohio elections frightened out of
the Democratic candidate for the Presi
dency, lose him the Votes of free traders.
They know,that • while there are Demo'
crate who are in favor of protection to
Arneri6n manut..ctures, the Dertiocralfc
party is the party of free trade. Fortun
ately, there are thinking Democrats active
ly interested in home manufactures, who,
demand something more than the Demo
cratic platform :promises—" a' tariff fir
revenue who expect soinetbiri.
more than the Demoeratic nominee think
they should have—a tariff that is " inci
dentally protective," and who consequent
ly will not Vote fiSr the party whose only
record on this vital. question belies the
promises their candidates would now
make to catch votes.
Tan present canvass is rapidly assum
ing a comical aspect. The Democrswy,
are doing all sorts of strangejnad amusing
,things.' For , example, in. New, York,
Irving Hall submitted to Tammany a list.
of twelve names, out. of which to select a
candidate for Mayor. 'lt contained two
Catholics, one Gerinan and nine Ameri
cans. Ono of the Catholics was select9d,
and even the Herold - asks why? It points.
out that no Catholic was ever elected
Mayor of New York, and intimates that
a power highir than Joan Nittax.inade
the e.hoice. It also points out that the
schools in . New York have been kept free
from political or religions part4anahip,
and suggests that the nomination of
GIIACIriII Catholic, for: Mayor, raises that
'issue for the firtit time. It really: looka
as if the Demoentey, in strongly-Demo
cratic Iletr!York, isle industriously pre
paring io hooded by their own petard.

Before' the issue of another numi
tier of our paper the PresidentiO
question' will <be decided. There is
every reason.to believe that the_sue
cess of the Be publican candidate is
certain. But 'while confident that
victory awaits us, it is but proper
that we should: nbt • conceal; the dan-
gers that 'are possible. 'Firstly, the
Solid South Will fulfil the promise of
Wade HaMpton and give the Demo-
cratic candidat i3B electoral votes.
A. - stormy day;. , or some-.;fortuitous
circumStance, might add enough from
the North to make up the necessary
185 votes or, more. It is well enough
to look such a possible Contingency,
n the-face and act,as if-it was immi-
nent. Then the desperation of the
Democracy - is such, that if, GARFIELD
and ARTHUR have a baremajority of
electoral irotes- there will be an at-
tempt on the , part of the reckless
Democratic majority ii.ZCongress to
count out our ~candidatO. Such an
'action woald'convulse the country, it
is true, might. 'lead tick anarchy 41.
bloodshed. but the •men who llndeav-
ored by rebellion to overthrow the
•
government are capable - or attempting
any measures of fraud and ,violence
necessary to - attain control of :the
govetntnent.
For the triumph of Republican
principles, for the safety and peace

t he text of Mr. JADWIN t e letter : :
Nevr..Tolui, October 2.3,-18g.
.
An article which_originally appeared i
the Harrisburg Patria, aud has been
pied in various . other papers, in felatio
to C:C. Jadwin, thl3 RepubliCanwand'.
dale for Cdpgress in the Fifteenth co •
,gtessional 'bistrict, _contains Several e
roes. ;It states that C. C. Jadwirt, throng
the Influence of Congressmati Overton,\,
ottained - .” a contract . from the Interior
Department for supplying-the Indians of
the frontier with his subduing liniment."
The truth about this is that the . Indian
contract here spoken of is like the cele
brated Rod.trblek letter. Fit:ta t :that let
ter was not, written by Itoorback, but by
another man of the same Dante ; second,
it was a whacking lie.; In the; present
case, the contract was pot ohtained by
Jadwie, but by another man of the same
name. That Mart was myself ; a brother
hi the Jadwin spOken of; lam the party
who supplied Mr. Lo, hissirterS, his 'cou
sins and his aunts.: ltrith'tnetliCioes, under
a contract with the Indian Comniiissicin
ers,. Next, neither C 4 C. Jadwin, or. illr.
Overton bad'anylnfluence ii\ the matter,
that I know of, and need none to in)
knowledge. %C. C. Jadwin knew nothing,
of my, contract ' until after'..„it \ ' was made,
and so far as I know Mr. Ovetton nevar'
heard'of it. ,Next, the contract did — not
include a drop or Jackwitils liniment, nor
a liniment bottle, ortilinirnent label. The
facts about it I will rise to`explain.
I am a wholesale (ruggit?t, doing bald

The government,- it-i 3•• well known, . fre
quently advertises' for proposals to fur

such!an advertisement, in eiaznno'n with
nuMfrousother dealers, •I offeted a bid
for Medical supplies tor the' Indian De- ,
parttnent, consisting of quinine, cincboni
ttia, Alcohol, anesthetics, cathartics, plas
ters,chemicals, surgical instruments and
appliances etc:; etc.; the bid being made
on Wank fortes furnished for the purpose
by the . government. • It, contained' no pro
prietry or patent medicines. In July all
bidsf-were opened and frail by the Com
mistiloners' in presence of all the bidders
whoFchosetqattend.' My bid' was found s
to bt,i the lowest ; and for this reason, and
thiiialone, it was accepted, and the 'con
tract awarded to me: The supplies;l fur
nitafed under it-were tested by a gbvern
merit expert, and Jound to correspond
with the specificatibus and samples; and
for Allis reason, and this alone, They were
. accepted and paid for 'at the contract
'pric. I neither employed or attempted
to - clinploy, directly or indirectly, the in
tim:thee of any man in seething ,this con
trant. I had no reason to sui.pose that
