hancock's corps but ! now i shall become perfectly recon ciled to that wound if hancock is placed in the presidential chair he went on to state that his own election to g ongress was as dust in the bal ance when compared with the election ofa president ; and that the election of hancock would give to the spveral states their constitutional rights and that the state and national govern ments would be aials to each other instead of oue attempting to crush the other for the attainment of this end all good and true americans should strive garfield at xew orleans whatever gen garfield's

vorn state meni he tore a - ongressional coinmit lec and proved from lhe mouth of the li publican candidate for the presidency that he was in new or leans during the fraudulent count eighteen days occupying an inner room in the custom house a private retreat where he had copies of ail the official papers which were delivered lo the returning hoard bearing upon the election in vest feliciana and there shut out from the light of day he examined these papers and had the witnesses before him and examined them one by one and when their testimony was not to his liking he prepared written questions to be asked them in one case that of amy j mitchell he says himself that her first affidavit was not lull enough and he had her to make another embody ing answers to further questions ; af j te wards so tlie evidence runs this i woman swore hat everything stated by her in answer to the question asked her by garfield was false that she did not say anything because she knew it but because they told her to say it this is the testimony of amy mitchell from which it appears that garfield got her as he got the other witnesses in his dark inner chamber and cooked her testimony it ap pears hat her testi loiiy was not en tirely satisfactory and he talked with her and finding her a oonvenieut witness he wrote out questions which she was told to answer in a certain way favorable to the republicans when she appeared before the board however she stuck to her first story and went back on gen garfield and let the cal out of the bag she was only one out of many this is the plain unvarnished tale told under oath and mr hendricks in response to the challenge his aired it and dwelt on it ami has clearly demon strated that gen garfield was more responsible for the louisiana outrage thau any other of the visiting states men he has proved conclusively these allegation which being true in the language uf garfield's friends nukes him a disgraced man aud therefore we say that these friends of his are not at all iu love with the man who was elected to the vice-presi dency in 187b they do not relish the idea of having these charges so damaging to the character of their candidate given prominence in the campaign but they cannot avoid it gen garfield is before the country i ami this i a public matter — a matter ofthe first importance involving the j highest interests of every american citizen whenever it shall come j about that the man who is instru mental in perpetrating such an out rage as defeating the election of a president by fraud liims.it is to be elevated to that high office then american liberty is a farce ami our system a failure — ial obscrvr the xfxt congress — the shrewdest repnlicau managers are uowgiviug more earnest attention to the congress districts and to tlie legislatures in tlie states that are to choose senators than they are giving to the presidential contest some nf the more candid admit that hancock's election is a foregone conclusion and others would be quite willing to see gar field defeated and even to bargain for that result by a trade of votes if either the senate or the house of representa tives could thus be gained — xew york sun j iu

it seems for north carolina to have a railroad of her own that is one that is to benefit her towns and ports exclusive ly the state has gotten used to the tap ping process which emptied her wealth on

conclusive reason for supporting hancock aud english the letter is ad dies ed to lis old friend joseph b cher ry esq of bertie countv mr pool as serts that year by year the northern managers of tlie republican party have lteen steadily driving the south to the i democracy mr pool thinks the elec 1 tion of garfield by the north upon the j principles advocated by the republican party would be a sectional triumph whicli he depreciates he closed his let ter in the following winds : in view of the whole situation in vol v ' ing sentiment duty sound policy and and tlie future i regard the nomination , of general hancock as a most fortunate j and providential event he is endeared to the north and commended to its full est confidence by the purity and firmness j of his personal character and by the ser vices he renderd in defence of the union he has the confidence of the south as an j honorable and gallant soldier representing j that feeling in the north which would respect the just rights of all and make the nation solid iu peace and unity instead of the sections in discord nnd hate after what has transpired during the war aud since iain convinced that no republican president could now re store the country to a normal condition of peace and order and i am aa fully con vinced that the election of general han cock would tiring that result the north ern people would naturally be prompt to aitl and sustain him in all measures adapted to such a purpose and the south | ern people would of necessity as well as ' disposition heartily and earnestly extend their full co-operation and support on the other hand the election of a president by a sectional vote is to pro long and intensify existing evils and dan j gers aud tosluould in darkness the pie sent and the future involving white and black rich antj poor iu a common calami ty these my friend are the candid views formed from close observation and sober reflection under circumstances that have given me the best opportunity to observe and consider in the approaching presi dential election the success of one party is to restore trustful confidence aud mutual kindness between the sections and thus to make the union solid i hope for all time the success of the other is to put the sections iu solid array with no reas onable assurance that the same thing is not to be repeated as long as the party in power can induce the northern people to prolong sectional rancor and malevolence and to treat ten millions ofthe american people as conquered enemies instead of fellow citizens in the common brother hood of the union yours respecfully and truly your friend johx pool the new orleans papers recall the fact that during the period when the louis iana fraud was iu contemplation there was a conference between the members of the returning board and certain repub lican manipulators and a result was reached as to what parishes were to be thrown out this statement was sub mitted to the visiting statesmen this was before any testimony whatever had been examined or any vote had been thrown out the details of the conspira cy was telegraphed to the philadelphia times by mr m p handy who designa ted the parishes intended to be thrown out it is fin ther said that the demo cratic committee had full information of the whole scheme and that it was pub lished at the time it was carried out faithfully by the conspirators garfield it appears took his part and played it to a letter — bal nates and observer sherman has been defending garfield from hendrick's charges he would doubtless have eliza pinkston on
