THE ABSORBING TOPICS HERE NOW are entirely connected with the election. Very little business 1s done, comparatively, business men preferring to wait til after the election. And nearly everybody here will be glad when it is over, for there has not been a time for a good while when business affairs were more promis- ing, and vaiues of speculative securities seem ready to continue advancing. But the election Will decide a good deal with business people, ‘because they have an idea that some change tn the tariff Is ble if Hancock is elected. Ay Gen. Hancock himself does not expect to be elected, and as the genera! bellef Is that he will not, @ good deal of the business boom fs already discounted in the steady prices at which goods are held. TPE REPUBLICANS IX UNITY, There tsone notable thing about the republi- can meetings that have been held in this city and state, and that fs the absolute mnanimity With which the different factions of the party lave endorsed Garfield, Take the Conkling Party, representing the Grant wing. They are doit g their very best for Garfield. The Sherman meetings, which represent another wing, are rectly harmonious. $0 when Seeretary Varts—who is In open contest with Conkling for control of the state—when Evarts speaks the unanimity of sentiment in favor of Garfleld is marked. And the Blaine wing, whose leader 13 Blaine, and whose chief orator 1s Ingersoll, are in perfect accord in this issue with the Grant, Hayes and Garfield people. It is satd by those best informed that there is perfect unity in the republican ranks everywhere. Indeed, it has actually come to pass that Hayes 13 enthusias- Ucally cheered at some of the assemblages, IN THE DEMOCRATIC RANKS there have been several unfortunate differences. John Kelly was determined that no matter how the appointment of offices was decided by the Tammany and Irving hall conferees, he shonld select the mayor. This he did, while pretend- Ing togive it to Irving ball by selecting hima from their list of names. In addition to secur- ing the nominee for mayor, Mr. Keliy secured a fuller share of the other local and con- freemonal nominations than he expected, the rving hall people being determined to placate Kelly, as they suppo: it was necessary to do in the interest of harmony by giving nim about ail he wanted except the mayoralty. He got the mayoraity, and Irving hall has now dis- covered the situation. John Fox, ex-congress- man, now state senator, and generally an office holder, says he WILL NOT BE KICKED OUT OF THE PARTY. Nobody seems to want to kick him out, but &@ great many democrats claim that he is too hard to satisfy, Willlam H. Wickham says that when he was elected mayor he thought he Was to be mayor of New York, but found that he was simply Jobn Kelly's ‘clerk; and he is carrying with bim a considerable democratic following to vote for Dowd, the repubilcan can- didate for mayor, 1n order to defeat Kelly's purposes. It was supposed that after Tammany and Irving Hails submitted their matters to arbitration, the decision would meet the ap- proval of a united city democracy. But there 4s nothing of the kind, and the bad blood crops out from every direction. The troubie {3 that Uhe democrats have for a long time wielded a very great power in this city, amounting prac- Ucally also in many elections to the control of the state machinery, and they feel So strong that they will not listen to a suggestion of the possibility of defeat. The democrats, too, in New York, probably made a mistake in snubbing Mr. Charles A. Dana and thus allowing Mr. Tilden to vent HIS NATURAL SPITE AGAINST GEN. HANCOCK. It was feared by Gen. Anson G. McCook, Con gressman from the Sth district, that the noml- nation by the democrats of Mr. Fred Conkling, Roscoe's brother, would beat him. Mr. Conk- ling, who is a large owner in the Sun bewspa- per, would have carried that iniluence, and Would also have had the silent good wishes of his _brother,—the Senator. The democratic nomination was made on the Saturday before the Sun made its first bitter attack on the democracy and on Hancock. Mr. John G. Davis was nominated, and Mr. Fred Conkling fot left. The following day was spent by Mr. ana at Mr. Tilden’s house, and on Monday morning they came on the train together from Greystone to this city. No one doubts that the Sun's altack on the democratic party was writ- fen at Greystone then. No one doubts that Mr, Dana wants Hancock defeated, and not because of any love for Garfleld; and that he Wants John G. Davis defeated for Congress, and not because of any love he has for Anson McCook. ‘The Sun has for years lived on sensa- Uns; 118 demoralizing opposition to the democ. recy is its sensation now, and its usually sour isposition is degenerating rapidly into journal- isuc dyspepsia. AS though these differences were not enough for the qemocratic party ia New York to cou- tend with, the mistakes ¢f ex Senator Barnum a8 manager of the national committee have ade some of the more respectabie leaders of the party ashamed of him. HIS EVERY MOVEMENT SEEMS TO BE UNLUOKY, and if the Garfleld-Chinese letter should be proven a forgery then he may as well give up managing. Not the least of these mistakes was the encouragement of the beastly personal at- tacks of the £rening Express on James Gordon Bennett, a serles of attacks so vile In their char- acter that the career of the Express as a tamily paper is ended, and the Herald and Telegrasn are made henceforth uncompromising enemies of the democratic party. Again, Mr. Barnum’s use of those Jewell- Florida telegrams has set the Western Valon Telegraph and Aszoclate Press against the de- mocracy, and the bitterest man is Dr. Norvin Green, ‘president_of the Western Union com- pany, who gave $5,000 towards Hancock’s elec- Uon & short time ago. THAT FLORIDA SHIP CANAL. About two years ago a forcign syndicate in- vestigated into the feasibility of constructing a ship canal across the shoulderof Florida. They found that by using the rivers and bayous in the northern part of the state, they would not have many miles of ground to cut through, and Uhat very tew ridges would be encountered. ‘They raised $35,000,000, made contracts, ma- chinery ior digging and for cutting stumps ot trees Was secured, and everything Was in readi- ness to go on, except the right of way. It was at frst supposed that it was necessary to get the government of the United States to guar- antce protection to the owners of the canal. but bat scheme was finally abandoned aS unecessary. It was esseniial, however, that the state of Florida should give the right of way through the state property, and it was asked that where the canal drained lands be- longing io the state and made them valuabie, they should be granted ‘Jlernate sections ot land. In order to do anything about it, an extra session of the legislature had to be convened. Governor Drew said it would cost the state $20,000 for Lim to convene the legislature, and the canai company offered to put that amount of money up. Governor Drew then declined to call the jegisiature, on the peers that it might defeat his renomination. He was not renomi- nated, the canal company did nothing towards building the canal, and the scheme is aban- doned icr the present. ‘This is tne true inward- négs Of that famous Canal project. PERFECTING THE FIRE ESCAPES, ‘Trial has been made here of a new fire escape, which seems to fill the bill. It isa hook and ladder truck, which combines a self supporting ladder and fire escape. It is claimed that it can be introduced at small expense, because the trucks now in use can be utlilved, with all their present appurtenances, and that the escape can be elevated and at work in le:s than one minute. {t is self-sustaining and revolving, and is easily putin — to rescue people from windows or roofs ot burning buildings. It does hot obstruct the street by lying across it, but on the contiary, works from its side to the build- ing. Itis not affected by the unequal surface of streets, or by snow, ice or wind, aud requires no adjusimert to Suit the Ireglarities of with lie windows.

George was recently comingiover from Boston in a sleeping car, where he had a whole section. He was sitting cn the lower berth in the morntng. about to put bis shoes on, When he was accosted by a kind- lcoking old gentleman opposite, who was aso Putting on bis shoes, with the Inquiry: “AM Trend, are you a rich man?” George looked astonished, but answered the pleasant-faced, thed-looking gentleman with a “Yes, Cm toler” bly rich.” A pause occurred, and then cam> another question: “How rich are you?” George answered: “About seven or eight hundrot thousand dollars. Why?” “Weil,” said the old man, “if I were as rich as you say you are, an: snored as loud as I know you do, 1 wouid hire a Whole sleeper every time I traveled.” George Went down In bis satchel and produced a pistol, Which they both examined, and shot off th tue glass at tie water cooler. GENERAL GARYIELD'S ENTERTAINMENTS. Ttwas found upon inquiry that Gen. Gar- field’s private purse would not allow him to en- tertain as freely as was desired, at his home tn Mentor, Ohio; and asum of money was ratsed and sent to him for the purpose of entertaining. He was not asked to subscribe to the campaign fund, because of the necssarily largely Imureased Cost of his living. Prest. Hayes was asked more than once to contribute to the caimpaign fund, but it appears that he has not contributed a doliar. Tis 1s a source of complaint, and Geo. C, Gorham, who ought to know, tells me that the committee on subscriptions duaned him in vain. Pir, ——$<—<—$_____ The Morey Letter Investigation. PROCEEDINGS IN NEW YORK YESTERDAY. THE STARS report of the proceedings in the case of Kenward Philp, on trial in New York charged with malicious libel in connection with the publication of the Morey Chinese letter, closed yesterday with an ment by Counsel for the defense against an adjourament, which had been moved by the prosecution. JUDGE DAVIS SatD: I feel it my duty to sit as an examining magis- trate, and although it 1s not usual for a justice in the supreme court to so use ils authority, it 4s not without precedent. Chief Justice Man: Held, in 4 case similiar to thts, so sat, and com- mitted the defendant after the evidence was admitted. If tuts letter was in fact written by Gen, Garteld as an expression of the sentiment he entertains on the subject of the letter, it was hot only unworthy of him, but should condemn him. There 1s no possible doubt, 1 think, in the minds of thinking men in this country that the ideas with which this letter closes, that the treaty with a great power—so far as Population ts concerned, the largest on the earth—should not be abrogated until manoufac- turing and other corporations are conserved on te question Of labor, simply means that until they are supplicd to their satisfaction with the cheap labor of the Cutnese. Such a senti- ment, uttered by a presidential candilate, would, a8 a matter of course, have a more Sertous effect, but if if be not genuine and a forgery every thinking man not only will admit, but will at once entertain with pleasure the thonght that the forger should be promptly and severely condemned. Now, under such circumstances, I feel it to be my duty to sit as examining magistrate, and to issue my warrant, not for the Purpose of subserving the interest of any party. No approach to me has ever been made on that subject by any person connected with any party, and It is not my intention so to conduct this case as to lead to any other than perfect and absolute truth. This m4 go} Jor adjournment is an ordinary one and would be granted. It is in conformity with untversal practice, and besides, on the part of the prose- Cution, extra delays have been occasioned by the non-production of the letter, for which the court was obliged to postpone the hearing in and then, by resort to what must appear to every one a very strict construction of lan- guage, the envelope was not forthcoming, and ive hours more were consumed. These extra delays causcd a loss of nearly half a day, though the Counsel in this case are not blamabie for this, I am not willing to be put ta a false posi- on, and I wiil give both sides every opportu- nity to present their evidence. If the prosecu- Uon are not ready the defeace can proceed aad give way when the prosecution are ready. I will adjourn the case until 2 o'clock. MORE TESTIMONY. When court reassembled, at 2 o'clock, Gen. Pryor and Mr. Brooke, of counsel for defense, entered, accompanied by Hon. Abram 8. Hewitt. Witness Hogan recalled—He testified: I hay submitted the Morey envelope to a microsco} Vest_ and have found erasures. I also find on the stamp that tigure 3 was printed, while wnat I cail Ngure 1is not printed, but is a lonc!- tudinal stroke. The stamp cn the reverse aiso Shows evidence of two erasures within the ring under the word “Morey.” I examined the en- Yelope at the post office in the presence of Mr. Bliss, Mr. Stoughton, Mr. Gaylor, Mr. Finn and Mr. Kuox. I don’t know who brought it there. Sudge Davis.—I entrusted it to Mr. Beil. Mr. Brooke.—I understood it was not to go out of your honor’s control, and I call your at- tention to the fact that It ‘1s not in the same — _ we Ee it. Judge Davis—I cut off a part of the edge. ‘The tears tn 1! were all there. John Phin ‘estified: I am the editor of the American Jocrnal af Microscoyy, and have made it a study for 25 years. Isaw'the Morey envelope two hours ago, and have examined it Undera microscope. ‘fhe surface of the paper is disturbed in many points, which can be dis- covered by holding it to the ight. There isan erasure above the word “Morey,” where there had been evidently the word sae On the face of the envelope I saw the word “Esq,” but could not tell what the other erasures were. Jas. Gaylor testified: Am general superinten- tendext of the city delivery of the post of Ou the Morey envelope I ed stamp bear. ing the words, “Rec, New York 7-30;" Bgure 2 1s in the place where the date is: the figure on the side of it I do not think was stamped there; we use the same stamps every day, but change date, the date being made in a single piece; the stamp onthe Morey letter indicates its recep- tion in the New York post ofice, and if it were sent from Washington to Lynh that stamp Would not be there.
