FARNSWORTH VB, HURLBUT. .+ Correspondence of The Chicago Z'ribune, Dervipene 1lL, Oct. 29.—Tho wasterly man- nerin which Gen. Farnsworth deals with facta and figures, in the joint discussions between him and Gen, Hurlbut, shows tho superiority of tho former over tho latter a8 o statesman. - Mr. Hurlbut’s mode of conducting bis side ot thess discussions is vory unsatisfactory to his adher- onts, who take no .comfort in latening to tho ropotition of his little spcech of & dozen yonrs ago, which smells of smoke and ‘blood. The facts aro, Mr. Farnsworth has things all his own way for sught his opponent can say; and the houcst-minded Republicans aro wise enough to sos that it would be extremo folly to elact such & man as Br. Hurlbut has proved hinelf to be to a second torm in Con~ greed, ‘They feol him to bo a burdon to the par- v, and a poor oxponent of thoir priciplos.

A largo ortion of theiutolligent votors in this district, ecoming disgustod with such bombast, and mor- titied with the conduct 'of onr Repreacntative during tho lost session, formed themselves into an Independent party, and ' invited Mr, Farns- worth to becoma thelr loador, knowing him to bo o trusty man from past experience. The truth is,-that the record of the Postmasters’ nominee shows up hadly, aud_ consequontly hundrods aro coming over to the Reformers' eamp, for tha pur- pose of vating down corruption snd demagogucs, Gon. Farnsworth’s record is one with which no fanlt can be found, and with which the peo- plo aro woll plonsed.

It waa tho anly political Anti-Blavery paper—excopt one of local circula- tion, in Morcor Connty—that was publishoed in Ponnsylvania for any ‘considerable time during those yoara; and I think there was nono in Easte orn Obio which lived through that decade. So, of courso, it was the common modium of coms munication among political Abolitionists of that region, snd I came to know thom, Dr. Lo Moyne, of Washington, Pa., was our Htato leader. Ho 'wag ono of the mon who organized tho old Lib- orty party, and was, 23 you #ny, once chosen with James G. Birnoy, a4 its natioual standard-bearer ; but, in all othor campaigns, he was our candidata for Governor, snd alweys lod his ticket. Ho wae no figure-hesd, but’ our most effective platform-sponker, and ono of our ahlest and most logical wrifors, As & man, he was o " Saul among sho poople,"—a moral giant, liko Gerrit 8mith,—above suspicion, boyond ro- pronch! fis homo wes a rosting-place for woary workers in the Anti-Slavory flold,—a hotel on the Underground Railroad; “sud overy member of his family was in sympathy with him. This son, whom the paoplo of the Third Diatrict proe poso to send to Congress, was always called “a chip of the old block,"—and a grand old block it was, The eldest daughter, Chatlatte, marriod John A.

Ward makos spoeches in the Twelfth and Thirteonth Wards in which e cally Cartor Harrigon a Seccssionist, a Copporhiead, and a sympathisor with the Camp Douglas con- spiracy. He kunows ho tolls what is falso. Now, I kvow what I tall abouc. Cartor Harrison waa sn omancipationist in his native Stete, and was o momber of a Convontion in 1849, which was beld for the purpose of gradual emancipation in Kontucky. Wheu the War broke out, he ridicnled the ides of overcoming the South with 75,000 men, and advoeated nondiug at oncs 800,000, 80 as to end the War quickly, For this Mr, Ward oalls Harl~ zison & zobol sympathisor. @Gon. Sherman said it would take over 100,008 mon to dofond Houtucky alono, and Ward and his friends called Sherman **eyazy," Carter Harrison was just as good a Union man o8 I was, and T would like to sce anybody prove Capt. Counott a Secoesionist, Cartor Harrison subscribed to ovory draft- committes in the West Division to holp poor men out of tha draft, and I, as & member of tho Draft Association, collcoted Mr. Harrison's subscription, and ho nleo put in & substituto for himsolf during the whole war, and Capt. Jamos, tho Provost-Marshal, will remember the fact. Carter Harrivou's Southern friondu calied him an Abolitioniat, becauso of his hatred .of Seces- sfon; and Ward calls him ¢ Secessionist,” be- cause ho was born in the State that gave birth to Lincoln and Dick Yates, Ward got ofices and mado mouoy out of tho War, and did his fighting on streot corners hore, and s (loin{: tho samo stylo of fighting to-day.
