We are not much surprised at the
coalition between the Democrats of
Ohio and the Reform" Republicans,
which has resulted in division Of
the Offices in the organization Of the
Ohio Legislature on Monday last, as
announced by telegraph yesterday.
1t is only the carrying out Of the
new departure" Democrats clear
ly see that the old leaders of the
party are politically dead, and that
new issues and new platforms must
be made if the party is to retain any
vitality at all. Treason during the
war and deadly opposition to the
rights of the negro since in the pro-
gress Of reconstruction, have driven
the leaders to a last violent effort to
reinstate themselves in popular favor
Evidently the Democracy are shap-
ing their tactics for the next Presi-
Dental election on a new basis. tits
we'll understoodsat Washington City
that the wise men of the party clearly
see that the fifteenth Amendment is
certain to become a part of the Fed
eral Constitution. Thea the last
plank in their old and rotten plat
formulated Of the negro-is gone.
And with it the destruction of the
hopes of PENDLEToN, HENDRICKS,
and all the old partisans who have
committed themselves squarely on
that question. A new stock Of poll
ticians must be put forward to catch
the negro vote. Chief Justice CHASE,
whom years ago Mr.. LINCOLN saw
had q deep seated mania for the
Presidency, conceives that his hour
is at hand, and there is a large por-
ton Of the Democracy ready to accept
him, thereby hoping to control good
share of the negro vote. And this is
the explanation of the organization
of the Ohio Legislature by division
of the offices between the Democrats
and the reform" Republicans
HAssAUREK was the politician who
managed the wires and claimed to
carry the Cincinnati reform" Repub-
licans in his brooches pocket. It is
stated that Immediately upon reach
ing Columbus HAssAUREK put HIM
self In telegraphic correspondence
width Chief j ustice CHASE, and these
two gentlemen have actually assumed
to settle between them the affairs of
Ohio. The Chief Justice has been
made to believe that the fusion in
Hamilton County was a CHASE ar
rangement, and hence he telegraphs
that his friends must all unite, Demo.
Gratis and Republicans, in organizing
the Legislature, and then, if they love
him, must ratify the Fifteenth Amend
ment. And such appears to be the pro-
gramme laid cut. The amendment
ratified, by the votes Of this coalition,
by Ohio, it will be boastfully claimed
that it was the Democracy, under the
leadership of the Chief Justice, who
accomplished the grand work of CIV
ing the ballot to the negro.
It will place the Indiana Democ
racy in a queer predicament. They
are to assemble in convention on the
ever-memorable 9Th of January, and
in some way must meet this new issue.
How HENDRICKS, MCDONALD, BRIGHT,
WHITTLEsEY. and the rest of the late
negro-hatiug leaders, will fix it up"
will be an interesting study for the
public.

On the subject of rents and real
estate, the Gazette says:
Large attachments have been made
Ia twelve months IN rents for large
business houses. This is owing
not only to an imperative demand Of
the times that the enormous rates
following the war should come down.
but to the building Of large number
of business blocks.
