[Correspondence of The Eorning Star. Naw York, Noy. 12th. This has been a week of great political things here. The first wonderful performance was the persistency with which some of the democratic committeemen took up the fraud cry and threat- ened to work it to the bitter end of throwing New York out of the count in the electoral col- lege. But this intense feellng gave way to bet- ter counsels, and since Wednesday morning, when the Apgar letter appeared, the opinions of leading democrats have undergone a radical change. ‘Tbe resolutions of the repubiican com- mit ees to meet the cry of republican frauds by astounding proofs of democratic frauds, have met with the same rebuke from the repubileans, So the people will see a gracerul submission to the inevitab'e Inauguration of Gen. Gardeid. ihe first tpspiration to Investigate was throug the democrats here,—Irviug and Tamman Halls and the state committee members. they were afraid that the opposition of the busi ness community would be strong enough to injure them at the néxt election, and théy dit very lite, Then the newspapers made an outcry against it, but the private letters and ais; alches received from the south and south- West gave them courage that the democrais els re would supporé them, and they wen: on investigating. Suddenly came pouring in pub- lic avowals from leading democrats everywhere. ard the committees have now avout agreed to yYild with a litte display of freworks in au adaress. BARNUM'S MISTAKES, Tt is really sad to think of ex-Senator Bar- num’s mismanagement of this campaign. A prominent congressman said this morning that be bad no business to buy up voters in Matne acd make the republicans angry, but that he Should have left Maine alone and carried Indi- ana tn October. The verdict, he says, would have been different, and the democracy wouid have carried New York state. The support Mr. Barnum gave to the Chinese letter carried Nevada and California, but it injured him ter- bly in the public estimation. Tue use of dewell’s dispatches, over his own sigaature to a pronunciamento, recoiled upon him. And now the Chinese letter business has rulued him otically, He has used bad methods of war- fare and has been beaten every time, and it is not at all fmprovadie that he may be board from in the coming prosecuuions about the Morey letter. ‘THAT CHINESE LETTER is tLe source of general talk here now. It has come to tie point where It Is no longer a task to prove tt a forgery, and that polut will deve ope liself Incidentally. But when the repubil- can National Committee wound up {ts camp ain aulairs Wey agreed to use the money they hat Jett, which was a good round sum, to discover the forgers and punish every body Who had any- thing Wo do with it, Such @ breakdown in the defense has rarely ever been witnessed. And Jobin I. Davenport and George Bitss, two ot the most vindictive men living, have thken the bit in their teeth and say they are determined to light the Case to the bitter end. The effect of Uns thing 1s to Ipjure Abram S. Hewitt pollu cally, aud Samuei J. Randall, and possibly cause @ chiminal suit agatost Wim. H. Barnum for sutorbation of perjury. ‘The tell-tale check given by Smalley, of the National Dermosratic committee, and the fact that one of the per Jurers was kept in the committee building, up stairs, hid away from Davenport, are ag uns prominent jeaders who ran the headquarters. AMAN WITH MORE MONEY THAN Hi WANTS. A few days since it was discovered that the Fourth National Bank had an extraordinary balance, amounting to about four millions of doliars of ready money to {ts credit at the clear- ipg-house settlement, and tina egan Wo wonder why it was. It transpired, after & good deal Of search, that It was the work of a Ger man syndicate that had been a borrower of about six million dollars frem Jay Gould. Tas syndicate seems to have received an intimation that Gould intended to make money “ tignt.” ‘The result was that they walked tuto Gould's office, handed him the six millions in several checks, and asked for their securities.

It may be further stated that to- day Mr. A. H. Girard, formerly of Washington, and now here in business with ex-Goveraor McCormick, called upon General Grant and invited him toa dinner to be given to htm by the Lotus Club on Saturday, November 20th. He accepted, and will be there.
