Ward was elected, and Cox contested

THE FALL ELECTIONS.

With the sweeping changes threatened in
the political sentiments of the people of the
country generally, great interest is felt in
the elections to be held this summer and fall
The following list will give our readers an
idea OF their time and objects.
The Oregon election took place last Mon
day, and was for Governor and a member of
Congress. This State went for the radicals
in 1868 at the State election, but subsequent
ly went for Seymour and Blair by small
majority.
In August Delaware and Kentucky hold
elections. In Delaware, which is strongly
Democratic, the radicals hope to prevail by
aid of the negro vote. Kentucky elects on
the first Monday of August, Representatives
in Congress and State Legislature The
September elections will be in Maine, Yer
mont and California; and then come the
more important October and November elec-
tons.
For one of these-Ohio-thc Democrats
are already preparing On the lst of June
they held their State Convention. Members
of Congress will be elected in Ohio, as in
many other States, in the Fail; and there
will also be, in that State, choice of Secre-
tary of State, Auditor, Judge of Supreme
Court, and other officers. Doubt is enter
tanned whether the Republicans will renomi-
nate Schenck, Bingham, Winans and some
Of the other Radical members for Congress;
| if they do it is probable that MANY of them
will be defeated.
There will be, beyond question, some I'M
portant changes against the Republican party
in Congress, in next Falps elections. Whath-
er there will be enough to overcome the cx-
isting FRAUDULENT majority, remains to be seen.
But the fact that this Radical Congress and
the parry who sustain it in its violations of
the Constitution, have fallen into popular
disfavor, and are under popular condemna-
ton, tire elections in Connecticut and New
York have already indicated The Fall cleo
tons-dreaded by Covode & Co. in Congress
will serve to give a more general and im-
portant emphasis to the fact

LIFE OF DANIEL WEBSTER. Volume IT. BY
George Tieknor Curtis, New York: u. Appleton
a Co Boston: ii. A. Brown & Go.
The second volume of Mr.. Ticknor's excellent
biography, while it must satisfy the friends ana
admirers of the great American statesman, will be
found of exceeding interest to the general reader
and the student of history 1t commences with the
matters Immediately preceding the Harrison
campaign Of 1910, the most remarkable party revul-
sion in the history Of American politics An ex-
cellent history of the North Eastern Boundary dis
pue is given, which involved Maine in the blood
less conflict known the Aroostook War, and OF
Mr.. WebStcrs agency in the negotiation of the
treaty with Lord AShburton, by which the whole
question set at rest. The anne Ration of Texas
the oregon boundary dispute. and the Mexican
War-all events in which Mr. Webster bore a
prominent part, occupy several chapters of the
work. The administration of President TAYLOR
and the threatening aspect Of the slavery question
at that time. occupy the 36th and 3,th chapters
together with the kossuth affair, and the defvng
letter to Baron fIulseman, the Austrian minister
The concluding chapter is occupied with the
events of the Presidential campaign of 1852, in
which the failure of the Wing convention TO nom-
nate Mr.. Webster so bitterly disappointed and IN
eeuSed his friends And then comes the history of
the great mans last illness, and his descent to the
grave. Mr.. Curtis's account of the last days of
Webster,-hs life drawing gradually to close, his
strength failing with the closing year amid the
beauties of Marshtield-is a master piece of the
KIND. We hope soon to find space in which to copy
It, The whole volume is very satisfying i'll the
revelations it makes of the inner life of the man
of his daily recreations, his love of nature his pas
sion for out door sports, his attachment to his
humble and dependent friends, his love and care
for the dumb animals of his farh-all so beautifully
adjoining the character of one whose fame is world
wide as master in the highest fields Of intellectual
effort They who gathered about the grave of
Webster, high and low. gifted land humble, We're
mourners indeed.
