The following correspondence is import ant, as it practically illustrates the views of thinking and enterprising merchants, and those who have not altogether lost their love of country or Constitution as handed down by our fathers, or who have a respect for maintaining its honor and char acter : 594 Broadway, N. Y., Oct. 14, 1868. To Gcorye Washington Langley, Esq., firm of Langley, Sauterlee, Black well & Cos., 379 Important Broadway, New York: Dear Sir: When Horatio Seymour was by acclamation nominated for President of the United States by the Democratic party, it was conceded by all parties that he was a good statesman and sound defender of our Constitution ; but since his nomination I have noticed many slanderous remarks in regard to his conduct during the war.— Happily, Hon. A. G. Curtin, ex-Governor of Pennsylvania, has expressed himself in a most friendly manner, remarking that the least said against Seymour’s conduct du ring the rebellion the best for the Republi can party, as lie would acquit him of such abuse. Now, as to F. P. Blair, I have observed in several Republican papers statements that he had no claims whatever upon the Democratic party, and to this I would say why not? Was it because he fought in the army and for the restoration of the Union? He was nominated at Tammany Ilall with shouts of applause, just after proclaiming that we must have a President untram melled by an unconstitutional, oppressive and arbitrary Congress. Since the close of the rebellion I have carefully noticed the expression of Southern journals, politicians and merchants, and find that all are de sirous of living in harmony and expeet that the election of Seymour and Blair will be the means of encouragement and the extension of the right-hand of fellowship, thereby advancing a complete vindication of the object of the war and of the Consti tution, aud restoring the rights of the iin pdTerishcd and oppressed portion of our country. Before concluding, I will address myself to the young and enterprising merchants and laboring classes. In the various city papers of recent date, I have noticed a cor respondence between Judge E. Pierrepont and A. T. Stewart, the substance of which was that they both desired the election of U. S. Grant for President, Judge Pierre pont tendering a ciieck for $20,000 for fur thering his election. Now, to the sensible reader aud to the young merchant, is not this in Itself perfectly explanatory of their interests, aud is it not opposed to their de velopment? Do they expect to be benefited ? Is it not for purely mercenary motives? The contest presents a well-defined issue between the bondholders and the enterpris ing aud laboring classes, and resolves itself into an oppression. Greenbacks for one and gold for the other. In this correspond ence I would not wish to assert any thing against the payment of the debt, but the interest is exorbitant—it cannot be paid, excepting in the same currency as purchas ed, and when this is once done capital seeks other investment of a more lucrative character, thereby producing a revenue, and gradually approaching a gold basis. In conclusion, permit me to tender my check for $40,000, to be used in such man ner as you may think most advisable for the furtherance of views. True to our friends and kind to the weak is the Democratic doctrine advocated by Truly yours, H. T. Helmbold. REPLY. H. T. Helmbold, Esq., 594 Broadway: Your letter of the 4th inst. received, con taining check for $40,000. This amount I shall use in the most appropriate manner. I perused the contents of your letter with the utmost gratification. The question is presented to the people whether they will aid in electing au administration bent on trampling the Constitution into the dust, and elevating upon its ruins a power con trolled by bondholding aristocracy, whose motto is gold for the rich and rags for the dri-tt)cclili) Constitutionalist. poor, with prostration in every branch of industry, and the business of the whole country, or from whose intelligent adminis tration we can have one Union, one coun try, one destiny. Sincerely yonrs, George Washington Langlly. [From the Louisville Democrat. The November Contest. We give at estimate below of several Btates, indicating how they may vote, and what the prospects are.

Missouri..a. 11 South Carolina 8 Total 29 If We give these doubtful States to the Radi cals, the vote will stand 110, the Democratic vote 137.' Lonisihnn, we may add, we consider as probably Democratic. Thiß is spdjciently encouraging to allow a margin. If we lose Indiana, the Democratic vote of these States will stand 124, the Radical vote 123. If we. carry Louisiana, Arkansas and Missouri we can disp.euse yvith Pennsylvania. The doubtful States in the North are Pennsyl vania, Minnesota, KaWas, New Hampshire and Wisconsin. The fight will be over them. At any rate there is a chance, and an equal chance. No Democrat should be discouraged, but, on the contrary, shonld work with renewed ac tivity. [From the Cincinnati Enquiier. The Ipdiana Election. ‘CLOtos Contests of the past.

It is likely that there are hot 500 voles difference between Heudricks and Baker on a total poll of 375,000. We have had in our history a number of such close contests. In 1849 Marcus Morton, Democrat, was elected Governor of Massachu setts by a majority of one vole over Edward Everett and scattering* the law requiring a majority over all to elect. The vote stood for Morton !. ..51,084 Everett and scattering 51,033 Majority ..i 1 In 1844, Henry Ciay carried Tennessee for President against James K. Polk, the Demo cratic candidate, by a majority of 113 votes out of a poll of 110,000. In 1840, Gen. Harrison carried Pennsylvania for President by 343 votes on u poll of 288,056, and he was success ful in Maine by 410 votes on a poll of 90,000. At the September election, In 1840, in Maine, Edward Kent., the Whig candidate for Gover nor, had 68 majority only over John Fairfield, the Democratic nominee. In 1848, John B. Weller, Democratic candidate for Governor of Ohio, wag beaten 250 votes by Seabnry Ford, Whig and Abolitionist, of Geangn county. In 1850, Horatio Seymour, Democrat, was defeat ed for Governor in the great Stale of New York by Washington Hunt, Whig, by a majority of 250. In 1854, Governor Seymour was defeated for re-election by Myron Clark, the Whig and Temperance candidate, by a majority of 354 only. In 1857, (lie contest for Governor in Ohio was exceedingly close between Salmon P. Chase, the Republican, and H. B. Payne, the Democratic candidate. On a poll of 800,000, Mr. Chase had but 1,200 majority. In 1844 the result of (he Presidential election was determined in favor of Mr. Polk over Henry Clay by a majority of 5,000 in Ihn State of New York. Without that State Mr. Clay was elected. Iu 1848 the vote of the single State of Pennsylvania elected General Taylor for President over General - Cass, and in 1850 the vote of ttie same State elected Mr. Buchan an over Mr. Fremout. In 183 G the vote ot Pennsylvania determined the Presidential con test in favor of Martin Van Buren. These are the closest great elections in our modern poli tical history. Business, not Words?— There have been no new developments concerning the proposal of sun dry leaders of the Democratic party to shelve Mr. Seymour and substitute Mr. Chase as the candidate lor the Presidency. Messrs. Tildeu, Belmont and Schell repudiate the idea, but the World, of Saturday, and the National Intelligencer still earnestly advocate it. The whole business, thus far, seems to have been grossly mismanaged. Until the arrangement to take up Mr. Chase had been perfected, the journals which approved of such a course should have abstained from repudiating Mr. Seymour, and thereby doing him incalculable damage. As they have now brought about confusion, and made public these important differences in the party, it might be the wisest thing, under the circumstances, to make some change either in the candidates or in the con duct of tlie canvass, which would tend to the restoration of unity and confidence. About the propriety of taking up Judge Chase, or the probability of now defeating the Radical party, we refrain, .at present, from expressing any opinions. While entertaining very decided views on these points, we desire to abstain from in anv way embarrassing those who may differ from us.— Baltimore Gazette. The Defeat of Mr. Vallandigham.— Dayton, October 13.—Vallandigham, the pro bate judge, aud prosecuting attorney, were all present at the Soldiers’ Home place of vot ing today, to challenge the votes of the in mates of the Home, Vallandigham being chief. At 4 o’clock, 250 votes bad been polled, and 249 of these votes we.re open Republican bal lots. The object in challenging was, doubtless, to cause delay, that the fewest number might be polled. The above is from the telegraphic columns of the Gazette. Itexplams why Mr Vallandig ham was beaten. The Soldiers’ Home is en, tirely under Radical influence, and no soldier is received there or permitted to remain who will not vote the Radical ticket. Hence their votes in a body against the Democratic candi date. But these 250 men came from all parts of the State, and really had no more right to vote in Dayton than members of the Legislature have to vote in Columbus. It seems impossible for the Radicals to have a victory anywhere except by gross tyranny and fraud. f Cincinnati Enquirer, 15 Ih. Wonderful Example of Mechanism.— The Adding machine recently, invented by Mr. Geo. H. Blelock, is certainly oue of the most useful and interesting inventions of the age, and that our readers may form an idea of its construction and operation, we give the follow ing description: A black walnut base, four inches square and one and a half inches high, supports an upright case of proportionate size, which contains the simple movements of the machine. The front of the case is a modest dial, plainly marked off into numbered sections, and furnished with hands similar to those of a clock. Nine keys, representing the numerals, project upward from the base, each one bearing the stamp of the figure it represents, and all of them con nected with and working the movement within the case, by an ingenious, yet simple device.— The mathematical operation, therefore, is but a simple following.with the eye of the column of figures to be added, and a touching of the pro per keys ; meanwhile the hands of the dial, as if inspired with human intelligence, record the result of the manipulation with mental speed and mechanical accuracy. The efficiency of this remarkable invention in performing arithmetical calculations is at once apparent, addition aud multiplication being rapidly performed, with little thought or ac tion on the part of the operator, and with a precision only attainable by simplemechanistp. Using the instrument with honest eye and finger, the least experienced cannot be at fault. Though mental calculations are liable to trifling inaccuracies, the thoroughly constructed brain of this unerring calculator will not permit the least variation from truth. M. E. T. [A. T. Democrat. [From the Memphis Avalanche, October 17. An Arkanfutfl Consignment Fails to Beach its Destination. BOXES OF “ LOYAL ” WAR MATERIAL THROWN TO CAT FISH AND TCRfLB. It is a notorious fact that the four thousand stands of arms recently brought to this city and stored with Comer & Richardson, until trans portation to Arkansas conld be provided, were obtained in the North through the influence of Governor Fletcher, of Missouri, ancL.United States Senator Yates, of Illinois; that they were designed for the use of the negro Loyal Leagues of Arkansas, against the whites, to the extent of bloodshed, if deemed necessary ; and that they arrived here in charge of Wm. L. Hodges, Arkansas penitentiary contractor, and one ot the most infamous of the carpet-baggers of that State. It is also a matter ol notoriety that the pretense of the arms having been or dered to the State government of Arkansas is a falsehood, it being a matter of record that no appropriation has been made for that purpose. It is equally well that Hodges, who ac companied these arms to Memphis, is the agent of the Radical Executive Committee at Little Rock, and a prominent leader in the Loyal Leagues. One after another the commanders of the White and Arkansas river packets refused to be the mediums of introducing into Arkansas arms and ammunition, to be placed in the hands of ignorant negroes for U6e against the white people of the State, and the inauguration of a reign of terror, it was simply impossible to secure their transportation ; so the Memphis aud Little Rock Radical leaders counseled together as to the mo6t effectual method of turning the affair into capital against Southern white men, and for use in behalf of Radicalism North. The little steamer Hesper,a worthless, unseaworthy tub, about as large as an old fashioned cooking stove, was provided with a Radical.captain and Radical crew at Little Rock, and seut here for the arras. The commander— a notorious bloviating Radical, named Houston —no sooner readied the Memphis wharf than, in accordance with the programme, he regaled every crowd surrounding him with a recital ol what he intended to do. He proposed taking those arms to Little Rock if he liad to fight ail the “ rebels ”in the South. Sulphur and brim stone emitted from his mouth iu huge jets, and his wondering auditors were astonished that General Grant didn’t engage, in lieu of his armies during the war, this valiant fellow, who, if as gifted in battle as in “ talking fight,” could have 11 cleaned out ” the South in a jiffy. The Radical deliberations had resulted in a determination to have the arms destroyed by violence, and the affair telegraphed throughout the North as a “ Ku-klax outrage” of stunning proportions. A few sensational lies were alone necessary to put the matter in shape for the Northern Radical press. It might not He with out effect in November. Thursday afternoon the Hesper left with the arms, and on the same night she was boarded and stripped of her cargo. The programme was carried out to the letter, and if the masks had been torn from the faces of the hundred men who pitched the guns overboard, more than one Radical leader would doubtless have been recognized. Many were reported missing from the city between 4, p. in., Thursday and sunrise yesterday. The following particulars of the seizure were obtained, in substance, from Captain John Ford, of the impressed tug Nettie Jones : About five o’clock Thursday afternoon, the tug Nettie Jones, Captain John Ford, left the wharf for Fort Pickering, having a barge in tow, and intending to return with lumber. — l’he tug reached Its destination and lauded at about half-past five o’clock. No one was in sight; but the line had scarcely been “ made fast” before the spot was covered with men, ail so securely masked as to be unrecognizable.- They were probably a hundred in number, and had evidently been conec.iled- for some time under the bluff. Had they sprang out of the earth their appearance before the stanied crew could hardl v have been more sadden. Without speaking a word, they quickly boarded the tug, took possession of the pilot-house and engine room, and ordered Captain Fold to. iuuue diololy start.down the river,'adding,' lij } way’wf an incentive! to promptness, ttiat somel/bdy might be hint in the event of a refusal. As soon ns Captain Kurd could sufficiently recover from his fright to decide whether his unbidden guests were a hundred or a thousand in number, and whether the height of ordinary men or tall as church steeples, he comprehend ed that resistance was out of the question.— Accordingly, he ordered one of the crew to cast off the line, and in a few moments the lug was rapidly steaming for President’s Island chute. Upon taking possession, the new command ers kept a vigilant eye upon the crew, not al lowing any one of them to leave his post for even a moment. The engineer Was not per mitted to oil his machinery, the mysterious passengers evidently fearing that he might sud denly put it out of repair. The head of the tug was held steady down the river until ap proaching Cat Island, twenty-five miles below, near the Arkansas shore. This was between 1% aud 8 o’clock, and Captain Ford was order ed to run his tug alongside the little steamer Hesper, which left the city during the after noon with the cargo of Radical arms for Ar kansas, and was tied up, wooding. During the trip the leaders of this mysterious party iu formed Ford that they intended overhauling the Hosier and destroying the arms, but that strict orders had been issued to the men to harm no one, and respect all other property. In obedience to orders, Captain Ford ran the tug alongside. This was no sooner accomplish ed than, leaving two of the number iu the pilot house, two iu the engine room, and one in tho cabin, ns a guard—the latter over one of the crew who had insulted the leader—the veiled party suddenly sprang aboard the Hesper.— Little or nothing was said, aud the boarders, who evidently had an eye to business,"placed the crew under surveilance aud commenced the work in hand. The gnu boxes were broken open with axes and hatchets, the guns taken out and thrown into the river. Many were broken before being consigned to the element. A large quantity of ammunition in the hold, marked “sundries,” was also thrown over board. The boxes were shoved overboard aftor them, and many of them were seen by passen gers on the Mayflower, floating with the cur rent. In half an hour the task was accomplish ed and the party quietly returned to the tug, leaving the Hesper adrift and in possession of all her crew who remained, Capt. Houston and bis brother having made rapid strides for the woods as soon as the Nettle was seen heating down upon their craft; The mysterious raiders once more aboard, Captain Ford was required to turn the boat northward, and proceed until further orders. At midnight she reached a point in President’s Island chute, eight miles bc.'ow the city. Here, by order of the veiled coramauder, she was run aground. No sooner bad this been done than some one, until that moment invisible, on the island, was hailed. A minute afterward a skiff put out from the shore, aud was rowed along side. Whether the person in it was black or white could not be ascertained; as he, too, was masked. Six of the raiders got into the skiff and were taken ashore, and the skiff continued making trips until 3, a. m„ when the last six w’ere salely carried over. But before any one left, strict orders were given Captain Ford to remain iu the chute until daylight.' He did so, the tug not changing position until 7, a. m., yesterday morning. She then returned to the city, bringing the first and only intelligence of whaUiad occurred. Ford informs us that soon after the Hesper was boarded several shots were fired, but whether by the crew or the raiders he did not ascertain. Some one ordered the filing to cease, and nothing more was heard. No one aboard tbe Hesper was injured or in any way mistreated. Several bottles and flasks of tbe “ fluid ” were seen circulating among the raid ers, but no oue was uuder its influence. They could not have been more quiet and orderly if eh route to a funeral. Where they went after being rowed over to President’s Island we have not been able to discover. Doubtless they dug a hole in the ground, crawled in, and drew the hole after them and slid down lo China, to assist old Foo Chung in the tea business. French Newspapers.— M. De St. Croix, in his essays on Paris, relates that an eminent physician, named Theophrastus Romandat, who had a passion for collecting news, was in the habit of amusing bis patients by daily inform ing them, during his visits, of the current events of the times. This gained for him great populaiity and a large practice. Thinking that he could turn the matter to more profitable ac count, he conceived the idea of coilectiug these items into daily printed sheets, which, being eagerly bought up, he obtained from the King an exclusive patent for their exclusive publica tion in 1632, and thus won the honor of being the first newspaper editor and publisher in France. “ While in the midst' of life we are in death,” was recently fearfully verified in a small town of Belgium. A young girl, while dancing a galop, died in the arms of her partner. AUGUSTA, (Ga,) FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 23, 1808 HUIMjEY’S ague tonio. PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
