Nurses, osc WOMAN AS nurse and chambermaid or us seamstress Conumucs, Ohio, Dec, 24, 1876. Just now there is much suid und a great deal written Telative to the existence here in the West of secret Bocietios, the alleged object of which is to secure the inaugufation of Hayes and Tilden respectively as ‘Vresidovt on the 4th of March, The democrats and their leaders and organs charge that the Grant-Hayes adherents are being organized in this State and in Indiana, with a semi-military complexion, with the secret object of using force to sustain the schemes of Chandler and Sherman to maugurate Hayes, Of course this is denied by the party organs of the ad- ministration, who retaliate by charging that within the ranks of the Western democracy a powertul organi- zation, with extensive ramificutions, has been formed for no other purpose than to precipitate civil war upon the country if Samuel J. Tilden be not counted in by Congress on the second Weduesday in February. charged that the democrats have resuscitated the old organization known as the “Knights of the Golden Circle,” that made such aggressive demonstrations in the early stages of the late war, and that they | are now extending their Order secretly throughout the ‘eat; that their object is a treasonable one and tmt the leaders of the party are knowing to the existence It t# true Governor Hen- dricks has disavowed ali knowledge of such organiza. 4 the belief that they have no existence, but his digavowal doos not indicate that there ig no ground for those widespread reports of se- cret societies existing in the West, 1t has fallen to the lot of your correspondent to es- tablish the truth of the charges made by democrats and republicans alike that such secret schemes are on foot. These secret pilots are not confined to either party. Both republicans and democrats have their oath-bound societies, Whose ovject, no doubt, points to the same end—viz., tho inauguration of their favorite candidate, Before proceeding to detail tho character of tho in- formation [ have obtained sustaining this assertion let me say that 1 have very secretly and quietly visited many centres of political feeling and discussion in Michigan and Ohio, and without leading them to sus- pect the objectof my mission, | have elicitedthe views of many local leaders, QUIKT REIGNS IN MICHIGAN. I find in the former Stute among the republican busi- bess men & Very conservative feeling existing. All ex- press the desire that if, on the report of the Congres- sional committees now in the South being mace to Congress, iv is found that Tilden has probably carried one or more of the doubttul States, he should bo given the benefit of the doubt, and receive the indorsement of Congress. They declare that the repubtiean party cannot afford to take the responsibility of precipitating a civil war by blindly sustaining the Washington pol:- ticians, whose object is a retention of office and con- tinued enjoyment of tho spoils. thus, of course, aro not federal office-holders, but the business men whose patriotism and desire for fair play and peace tower tar abovo party lines and partisan antecedents. ‘The office-holders are as loud us those of other States in maintaining that Hayes shall be inau- gurated at all hazards, and they even go so far in their blind zeal in fotlowing their political adviser and mon- tor, Zach Chandler, as to declare that they will march on Washington, with arms in their hands, to sustain fhe democrats of the State are very undemon- strative and reserved in their utterances. do givo expression to opinions it is to deplore the pos- sibility of a conflict, and to express the hope that the wisdom of the clearheaded republicans of the country will hold in check and neutralize tne bitsern oflice-holders and rule-or-ruin leaders of tho party: The democratic clubs that existed in tho State during tho last campaign have, as far as I can learn, been dis- nd no bombastic boasts of using force are tn- dulged in by the rank and file. Outside of the Boys in Blue and the Grand Army of the Republic there aro | no secret republican clubs in the State. Blue keep up a taint semi-military organization, but the State has so large a republican voting majority that the “Boys” are lukewarm, can safely assure you, there are no political clubs plotting to inaugurate civil internecine strife. This may be, in & Measure, Owing to the confidence repo-ed in | their leaders, who discountenance violence, believing that the constitution is broad enough to solve the un- happy dilemma in whieh the country finds itself EXCHANGE, Cabin passage, $70; “intermediate, reney; excursion tickets, Apply to W.

The Order, 1 understand, is of but recent birth, but it ts’ repidly spreading over tue entire State, and democratic soldiers admit to your cor- respondent that they are members of it.

DO THRY MEAN WiGuUT? Your correspondent was curious to elicit some in- formation as té the intentions of these ‘Minute Men of 1876,” and put a question as ollows: “What can you hope to accomplish by such a move- mont as thut of the “Minute Men??? « “1 teil you, sir, the people of the West are red hot and dou’t propose to be cheated out ot the election by aby perjurea returuing boards nor by a partisan Presi- deut of the senate, Aud, by the Eternal! they will go to Washington as citizens, if Governor Tilden says 80, and see tnat he is inaugurated! They propose to baud together to exercise the rightof freemen, to protect the sanctity of the baliot box, At all events, Hayes, 7 no political prestiuigitation on the part of the ‘asuington plotiers, can be inaugurated from the east wing of the Capitol on the 4th of March, for the Ohio democracy will be there to hold possession of it, insist that their votes shall be counted, and, it neces- sary, tight for it! will inaugurate Samuel J, ‘Vilden on tho 4th of March or know the reason why.
