Cude-Gaul’s Graphic New York Letter— The Banner* anti Their Inscriptions. Mrs. Cleveland in New York—Other Nows. New York, Oct. 13.—[Special Corres¬ pondence by Wire.]-Early this morning the pedestrian began to find difficulty in making his way through that vicinity of Broadway which is between Nassau street, and down almost as far as the battery. Numerous bodies of young men attired in smart campaign uniforms, stood on the pavements chatting and smoking, and the lights in the club win¬ dows had never once relaxed their vigil during the small hours. It has been a great day for the democ¬ racy. No less than 10,000 citizens have formed in line, and, with banner aloft, paraded the streets until near dusk. To¬ night there has been a tremendous torch¬ light procession, eclipsing that of the Blaine contingent by splendor and num¬ bers. As the parade showed the intense loyalty and enthusiasm of the people to¬ wards the ticket, so the mass meeting at Cooler Union closfe displayed ical side of the the straightforward canvass. Enthusiasm log¬ is well, but it has the too frequent effect of blinding men to facts which should be received and discussed. I believe the day when a campaign can be run on wild ebbulient joy is over, and the party that utilizes logic and republican princi¬ ples is the wiser and stronger, and there¬ fore more apt to succeed. There is noth¬ ing artificial about Secretary Fairchild. He is not a great orator, but his speech to the crowd from the steps of the Wall Street convincing. Sub-Treasury Who was should both powerful be and more thoroughly of the nation posted than on the tho secretary business of affairs the exchequer? He was the head business man of a great country; he was a tried democrat, and he addressed a multitude composed “The theory of business of protection,” men. lie said, “is a fallacy cherished from generation to generation. On this account, and wholly because of it the majority of the representatives heretofore of fifty millions of peo¬ ple have countenanced its perpetuity. But the time has come to throw off the fallacy because we are a greater, wiser and stronger people.” When Secretary Fairchild had finished the crowd shouted and cheered them¬ selves hoarse, until Speaker Carlisle stepped allur on the edge of the platform. He ed to the true statesmanship, the probity and courage of the adminis¬ tration, and at the close said there was no need no eulogize before ten thousand democrats the greatest democrat of the country’s hosts. There were many other speeches, and then the meeting at Cooper Union followed. It was amusing carried to to-day's note some of the banners in demonstra¬ tion.

Mr. Harrison’s hat was, of course, visible. The nomination of “Sunset” Cox for congress is warranted to give additional strength to an already strong ticket. Where “Sunset” isn’t known as a force- iul speaker he is read as a graceful writer, and, as somebody said a day or two ago, he is the youngest old man in America. To look at him no one not posted would lielieve he was over fifty, whereas Father Time has bestowed al¬ most a score more of anniversaries upon his still clear and laughing brow. Mrs. Cleveland passed through here last night on her way to Washington, to join her husband at Oak View. A friend of mine who traveled with her from Al¬ bany, and who is well acquainted with the charming femme de ia president, says she declares she had a glorious mother, time in the Andirondacks with her Mrs. Folsom, and Dr. Ward. It was such a relief, and one much needed, to get away from the capital for squirrels a period in and be among the trout and the woods. She laughs very much over the times they had, and the queer cos¬ tumes they wore. She says she doesn’t believe the first lady of the land would attract much attention, or rather attract a great deal, attired in a checked ging¬ ham and a sunbonnet, and hand. carrying a fishing Mrs. pole in a very brown has out¬ Cleveland he says, not grown her charming maiden naivete, although the stiff,-dull routine of 'Wash¬ ington life is sufficient to make many bright and freshly-blown madamoiselles very, very sad and artificial.

New York, Oct. 18.—[Special.]—A heavy syndicate of American newspa¬ pers, of which the Sun is at the head, has paid $30,000 for advance sheets of Sir Morrell Mackenzie's book on The Case of the late Emperor Frederick.
