virginia Election,

Hon. JOHN LETcHER, the Democratic can
didate, has been elected Governor of Virgin.
ia by majority of in ear six thousand, over
Goggin, the opposition candidate. There is
not much change in the political complexion
of the Congressmen. The Cincinnati En-
quirer says:
Virginia has always been uniformly a
Democratic State, never having voted against
the regular Democratic nominee for Pres
ident. But the majority, occasionally, Of
late years, has been cut down to low fig
ure. in 1910 Martin Van Buren beat Gen.
Harrison, for President, only 1900 votes
In 1874 James X. Polk carried the State
against Henry Clay BY majority of about
5000. In lS4S General Cass came neaf be-
ing beaten by General Taylor. He was
saved by only about 1900 majority. In 1901
MIR. Johnson, Democrat, was elected Gever-.
nor over Summers, Whig, by majority OF
5000 In 1852 Pierce, for President, had
$4,000 majority over Scott. In 1855 Coy

Hon. Vim. ii. Stafford.

This gentleman has been placed on ths
Democratic ticket for the office Of Lieuten-
ant Governor. His nomination is one that
will be commended by all who know the
man. He is courteous and affable, possessed
Of fine legal and literary requirements, and
generous to fault. Mr.. s. was formerly
Wing, and remained faithful to that party
until it was crushed out by the abolitionists,
since when he has ACTED With the only ma =
tonal party in existence. In 1857 he was
elected State Senator from the Ross and
Highland District. He has filled that pos t
with great satisfaction to the people, ana will !
if elected, preside over the deliberations OF
the Senate with marked ability.
M'arthur Democrat. (McArthur, Vinton County, Ohio) 1853-1865, 1859-06-09
Our standard Bearer.

The nomination of Judge Ranney is hailed
with delight by The Democracy throughout
the entire State, who, with such standard
bearer, are sanguipe Of success at the Octp-
Der election. We clip the following, which
we heartily endorse, from the Cleveland Ma.
tiona Democrat.
TIE NEXT GOVERNOR OF ONO. The news
that came over the wires yesterday aftei-
noon from the Democratic Convention, an
nonncing the nomination by accamation of
Rufus P. Ranney as our candidate for Gov
ernor, was received with hearty coDgtatula-
tons by the Democrats of this lcity. 1t is
dn earnest Of the good feeling and harmony
Of the Convention and Of its high apprecia
ton Of the qualifications Of Judge Rannsy
for the important post he is to fill as stanl-
ard bearer of the Democratic party, that it
was able to give its unanimous voice to the
man who is 10 be the leader OF the cam
paign.
Judge Ranney is a well tried and true
man. In the highest and most responsible
positions which his fellow citizens of Ohio
could confer upon him, his discharge Of duty
has been alike honorable to himself and
creditable to the great principles Of the Dem:
ocrutic party. Especially as member of
the Convention which formed the present
Constitution of Ohio, did his great talents,
wisdom and practical good sense tend to
mould the institu tions Of the State; and to
mark them with the true Democratic stamp.
On the Bench of the Supreme Court, the SOL
id qualities of the man, combined with pa
tience, suavity and high integrity, not only
commanded the respect, but won the admra-
ton and attachment oil the entire Bar OF
Ohio. His nomination viii everywhere in
Ohio be greeted with hearty satisfaction. No
man has larger number of personal friends
out of his party, nor enjoys more general
confidence on the part Of his own political
friends, than Judge Ranney. We do not
doubt therefore the propriety Of assuming for
him the title which we SO confidently place
at the head Of our article, that of"THE NEXT
GOVERNOR OF THE DEMOCRATIC STATE OF
| Omo,"

CoRREcrIoN.-The last resolution Of the
platform adopted by the Democratic State
Convention on the 26th, contained some er-
rors as published by US, last week, and we
therefore reprint it with corrections;
II. RssOlUed, That we, the delegates in
this Convention, representing the Democrat
ic party of Ohio, and proposing no departure
from its ancient AMI wsll-tried principles,
nevertheless appeal to the people Of Ohio at
large, as our fellow citizens, equally interes-
ted with US in the maintenance Of the Feder-
al Union according TO the letter and spirit oI
The Constitution, and equally desirUus of ths
blessings of peace and public Order-to unite
with US in rebuking the wanton, factious
revolutionary designs of the leaders Of the
self-styled Republican party, and thus avoiC
(what seems otherwise inevitably conflict
of mere violence between the authorities o
the United States and those Of our owl
State; a conflict of the most sorrowful char
acter, disastrous and perhaps fatal TO US, bu
certainly calculated, at all events, TO bring
the name of American Liberty into contemp
abroad.

OTHER MATTTRs.

After these exciting questions had been
disposed Of Mr. Campbell introduced a Sc
ries in reference to the tariff, internal im-
provements, State system of banking &c,
The Committee, however, seemed to think
that there were but two questions before the
country, viz: the Rescue case and the Mas
sachusetts Amendment, and, therefore, voted
down Mr.. Campbell's enlargement.
The resolutions that had been adopted
we're rewritten and arranged into platform
with suitable whereas, and as such received
the approval of the Committee. The Com
mittee then adjourned. 1t had been in per-
petual sessio n, without dinner, for five hours,

posed now 10 press any measure looking to
reform Of that matter.
Mr. Campbell called attention 10 the fact
that an American sentiment existed In Ohio.
When excited from just causes It is power.
full. That sentiment Is now dormant, and ia
doposed for the sake OF ridding the nation of
Loco focoism, to unite with the Republicans.
But this proposition is an aggressive move
ment upon the Americans OF the State,
They are not asking any Massachusetts,
amendment, nor any other law affecting the
naturalized citizen. On the contrary they
are fratemizing with that class Of citizens.
II the propose resolutions are adopted, they
will be offensive to the American sentiment
Of Ohio, and productive only Of mischief.
Mr.. Campbell spoke very warmly on this
topic. He was followed by others on the
same point. They were responded to in the
same spirit. The resolutions were put to
vote and lost.
This was soon known outside, and brought
in several i2termeddlers. The resolutions
were brought forward again, the discussion
repeated, and new excitement followed. It
seemed as il the committee could certainly
never agree on that question.
At last the peacemakers went to work,
and the resolution was modified TO secure q
compromise, 1t was so changed as to con-
demn the principle Of Massachusetts, Amend
ment, without mentioning Massachusetts, or
the Amendment, substituting therefor law
Of South Carolina, which had been passed
by the Democracy Of that State. 1t was a
hocus-pocus shuttle, and it was successful so
far as 10 win the appreciation Of majority.

BARNUM IN ENGLAND.-Mr. Barnum, though usu-
ally successful in his lscturing tour through England
recently met with reverse at Oxford. Some Of the
undergraduates were resolved on putting him down,
and on his appearance greeted him with groans and
hisses Barnum took it quite coossy, saying that as
they had paid their money they might take tbeir
choice and hear him not that it rested s.tirely
with themselves for he was prepared to coy ont his
contract, but if they preferred to recey nothing he
should not quarrel with their decsio but pocket the
afront with the cash. At last. -aoweyer, some one
threw bit of orange peel at am, when he naturally
became indignant and pdred. 1t was altogether q
most disgracefal proceeding and highly deprecated
by the more respectable portion Of the audience.
