New York, Nov. 3. —[Special.] — A politician with a reddish moustache and bald head has been haranguing a crowd for two hours only a block distant as I write this. The incident is trivial enough at thiH time, but I shall use a few sen¬ tences from his frantic diatribe as an illustration of certain methods in force here, which may he interesting to south¬ ern readers. “Who is behind the democratic party’* managers in this campaign? Grover Cleveland? Poor, old, decrepit Thur¬ man? Party millionaires? Men of brains and patriotism? “No, fellow-citizens, a thousand times no. It is the rebel horde. It is the rank, bull-dozing secessionist, who is only waiting for an opportunity to overturn the Arm pillar of a great and glorious union, disenfranchise the colored vote, and pile dishonor and knavery upon the crest of the American people. [Loud cheering.] Cleveland is only waiting and waiting, and if he gets in four more years, gentlemen, the dirty, foul-mouth¬ ed Johnnies will take possession of our once fair capital in swarms. “.Vote for Benjamin Harrison and help prevent this frightful catastrophe 1” [Ap¬ plause. The individuals ] who gave utterance to the above remarkable paragraphs, it is needless to say, professes to be of the re¬ publican fath. A call on elicited the republican the fact canvassing committee that he is paid $4.50 a day out of Mr. Quay’s treasury. Yet no one finds fault with him or his abuse. Look over the New York Sunday papers and even though you have the eye of Argus him¬ self, you will find no space devoted to his efforts. Poor fool, he, with mayhap, choice a family to support, Hobson, accepts the he would of the immortal or as leave be on the Brice side to-night, and be talking as loudly and as rabidly for Cleveland and reform. It is not to him, but to his auditors that I wish to invite the attention of the people whom he nightly calumns. When he asserted that if Cleveland were re-elected president the south would disenfranchise the col¬ ored vote, I expected to see his audience swilo blandly at such a broad campaign i“bluff.” I evidently gave New Yorkers too much credit well for good sense. goods At a signal from a dressed dry clerk the whole crowd broke into a wild and hilarious cheer, which lasted some moments. I would like to have given that man som points about those remarks of his. I would like to have shown him that a southern democrat will not only main¬ tain negro suffrage, but do it at all haz¬ ards from a standpoint of political self- P reservation; and further, I would also hi ave given a good deal to have jumped up on the stand and drawn a picture jeomparing ping “rebels,” those with ranting, the peaceful, roaring, law- rip¬ abiding republicans of Gotham during the past week.

I might give twenty- five interviews I have obtained with prominent people, such as Major Dun¬ ging, State Comptroller Weinple, Secre¬ tary McClellon, Chairman Davis and other local celebrities, but that would oot be public opinion.

I repeat this prediction and place the ma¬ jority vassing at 22,000, and from a week's can¬ of the State Press and inspection of the inside returns at the national committee rooms, I have become more than ever convinced that these figures will be proven correct three days hence. New York is going positively for Choc- land, Thurman and tariff reform, but on a(lose vote! An Albany who paper lias a report from an agent has, as he states, made a tou r of the counties extending from New York up the valley of the Hudson, 'lienee via the New York Central mil road the through Erie county, and thence through southern tier, and his report is sum¬ marized thus: “lean ray that Warner Miller's ma¬ jority 20,000, in this state will not he less than and it may reach 50,000, even giving majoritv, Hill below Harlem bridge 80,00-1 v hi h in n.v nn'nios. from a knowledge of the politics of New York, and Brooklyn, is an on . i .e estimate probably In 1884 too high by 5.old or 10,000 votes.

In a private letter discussing the polit¬ ical conditions of this state, a gentleman who is a pronounced mugwump and has been in the midst of the battle through¬ out the campaign and is in a position to know the detailed results of the canvass, says that every democrat and every sup¬ porter of the democratic party “is justi¬ fied in feeling the utmost confidence as to the outcome.” The outlook in Connecticut remains as hazy as ever. I had a chat with Treasurer Hyatt, who has just returned from Con¬ necticut, and he told me that the well- informed politicians he had happened to that, to meet while during the Iris visit had assured him democrats might lose in some others, directions, they would make gains in so that in the end they would hold the state by a little better majority than “By formerly. the said here way, he is a clipping frtin the Hartford Times of Friday. It says: “The last week of this unparalleled Cleveland. political campaign The tide opens is setting favorably strongly for towards the president.” But there is no discouragement in or doubt to be discov¬ ered tlie republican journals of the state. Not the slightest sign of anxiety for their ticket is shown, if it is felt. At the time I wrote you of the pros pect in the Empire State, I said 1 was a little doubtful about our carrying Indi¬ ana, in spite of the sanguine assurances of Mr. Brice. In that state charges and counter frighten charges the honest of bribery continue to and nobody knows whom voters everywhere, what or to be¬ lieve. If the majority of votes are cast for Grover Cleveland it will almost be a windfall, as, from the moment Harrison was nominated, the republicans had every reason to expect success in the state. If it had been George Francis Train or Sitting Bull it would have been the hailed same, from pre-supposing Indiana. these worthies It is not because thousands of reputa¬ ble prognosticators sincerely believe that the sixth president day will be re-elected on the of November, as Bard well Slote puts it, “by a large majority,” that great care is not to lie exercised in see¬ ing, strengthened. individually, that this majority is “Tell your folks down south," said Major Ollyrne to me, “that they must vote, every man of them.

Fleming is making a brave canvass; but what is one man to the dispensations of Providence.

Portland, IihL, Nov.B.—]— Senator Sherman addressed a large gath¬ ering of republicans here to-day, touch¬ ing upon all the Dsues of the campagin. Of the Murchison-West letter he said: “The trouble is that Minister West simply told the truth. There is not a word in Minister West’s letter but what every man here knows to be true. In other words, all the policy of this admin¬ istration is in favor of England. It is said the letter to Mr. West is a forgery. I don’t know about that; maybe it was, but the letter from Mr. West was not a forgery. If I had been in their place, I would have said Mr. West told the truth and we are standing by him through the whole, but they have given him the shake, and all that remains for you to give Mr. Cleveland is the sack." Mr. Sherman then discussed at some length the Mills bill and the tariff, and closed with an eloquent appeal to the Hoosier voters in behalf of Gen. Harri¬ son, “the heroof Peachtree creek, and a man that honored Indiana in the United States senate for six years.” JURORS IN TEARS A Baltimore Girl Vitriol Thrower ou Trial for the Crime. Baltimore, Md., Nov. 3.— -Mary Bvo- phy, a bright and attractive girl of 20 years, has been tried for throwing vitriol in the face of Harry Coleman. Not unti she went on the stand, and with tears and moans told her story, was it known that Coleman had betrayed her. While telling her story the ladies in court, and some of the jurors, were moved to tears. Just facing the girl, while she was giv¬ ing her testimony, stood the man who had betrayed her. His face was horri¬ bly scarred. The two met in the winter of 1887, and, under promise of marriage, Coleman betryed the girl, the result be¬ ing that a baoe was born in the latter part of the summer of 1888. Coleman . resorted to illegal means to destroy the i child, and was subsequently indicted for I the attempted crime. j The father of Miss Brophy interceded in his behalf, and secured a nolle pros j upon the promise that he would marry the girl and save disgrace to the family ; I but this he failed to do. The girl, crazed with grief, in company with her mother, who knew nothing of her daughter’s in¬ tentions, sought her betrayer at his house. It was after 11 o'clock at night • hen the girl rapped at his door and called him forth, and, according to her story, after his emphatic refusal to com¬ ply with his promise to marry her, threw the vitriol in his face, disfiguring him for life. After being out one hour, the jury said they were unable to agree, thereupon the state with the consent of the court, nolle prossed the case. Bunk With Sixteen Live*. New York, Nov. 1.— Capt.
