SENATOR THURMAN's ARRAIGNkEET OF
THE RADICAL PARTY.

Senator Thurman, of Ohio, opened the
democratic campaign at Cincinnati BY q
speech before the Young Mems Democratic
club, in Mozart hall and made. the following
telling hits.
He spoke against Capitalization, saying
that no candid and intelligent man could
deny that a revolution had been gong on III
oar government for ten years, with ten-
dency to deprive the states aud people OF
rights heretofore considered By all parties as
unquestIonabie and to vest in the general
government nearly every power that a
government can possess over the people
The idea Of leaving matters of local concern
TO the states and of general concern to the
federal government had been fading away
since the republican party had come into
power, and would soon cease to exist if that
party continued in authority. Though dis
posed to take hopeful view of things, he
ssid he believed, the reserved rights of the
states we're threatened with little less than
snnihilation. The question was Were the
states to be reduced to mere departments or
counties2 To this he was opposed, because
it would break down the government, and
if the latter should in any event survive, to
SO ehsnce the government would be very
wrong He arraigned the republican party
for voting money into individual pockets by
congressional legislation, by a system of
loans unfair to the government; by largely
increasing the duties, BY which one dollar
went into the federal treasury and three to
the manufacturers; the sudden changes in
the internal revenue, giving the whisky ring
opportunities of making large sums; BY
astounding subsidies to railroad enterprises.
In speaking of the written debt, he said
Johnson's administration had paid $l47.
600 900. while Grants had paid but
SIP, 100000 of written and unwri.ten debt
together. Johnson's administration had
paid $40 to 3 paid by Grants. He charged
the republican party with not intending to
to pay off the debt. The debt paid would
destroy the national banks, and the banks
had power to control legislation. He
instanced the funding bill to show that the
object was to probing the payment.
The administration had failed in its
foreign relations. Our rclams for indemnity
with England we're unsettled while Cuba
won d have been free had our government
manifested the sympathy she ought
Mr.. Thurman closed by aluding to the
Chinese question. He did not think large
Chinese imm grafton desirable. 1t would
be serious disturbing element. A limited
number of business men would come by
reason of our business relations with Asia.
There was no objection to that This was
wholly different, however, from i'm m grafton,
which was a species OF Chinese slave trade.
He had no sympathy with the cry for cheap
labor and low wages They gave rise to
great public works; magnificent structures;
bus the benefit was gained at the expense of
the suffering people.

SINGULAR PROPHECIES.

With the downfall of the French empire
renewed attention is drawn to certain
strange prophetic utterances, some of them
put forth long ago, and whereby the over
throw of Napoleon III. is foretold. Since
the commencement of the Franco-Prussian
war, these anti Napoeonic prophecies have
found q ready ear in Germany. A small
printed sheet, entitled "a Remarkable Pro
phecy." and having reference to Napoleon's
fall, is now in circulation in that country,
and gives for the modest sum of one kreut-
ger a copy ola most remarkable calculation,
which un,tes in a singular degree ingenuity
and prophecy. From an examination of
this singular bit of political ciphering we
obtain the following facts, as thus:
Louis Philippe born orn......................I77s
His Queen, Amelia.
They were married ......................1S0y
They sscended the French throne............lS30

THE GAMBLE CASE.

In the Assembly, few days before
the adjournment, the Committee on
State Affairs, TO whom was referred the
memorial relative to the pardon of
Gamble, reported as follows:
The petition Of Peter MEG oyern and
lis other citizens of Jefferson county,
requesting that there be an investiga-
ton as TO the means by which Michael
Gamble, convict in the State Prison,
obtained his pardon, have had the same
under consideration, and after an ex-
animation into the matter set forth in
said memorial, would respectfully state,
that they are unable to find any blame
attached to the Goyerno~, and there
fore report the same ba OK to the AS
sembly, with the reco mmeadation Of
indefinite postponement.
Governor Fairchild having been re
peatedIy charged with completely in
the Gamble business, this report re
Iieves him from any censuro in the
matter, and must remove many false
impressions that have existed in the
minds Of numerous persons regarding
the motives of tie Governor 10 signing
the pardon.

THE LATE LEGISLATURE.

The legislature adjourned Thursday
last, March 18th, after a session of
sixty four days-one week longer than
last year.
The amount Of business presented
and disposed Of is much larger than
that Of the previous session. AS
showing how much business was trans
acted during the session, we find that
726 acts were passed by both houses,
many of them of the greatest impor-
lance to the people, and others that
might have been laid aside without any
detriment to the State. Among the
acts passed were the following:
10 exempt disabled soldiers from the
hawkers and peddler's license ; giving
to the families of soldiers who served
during the war in the regular army S.
month State aid providing for the
education of certain soldiers orphans
in the normal schools; giving bounty
for killing wolves, lynxes and wild
cats; requiring cities to make their
school reports direct to the State Su-
perinteaaent; exempting a printing
press or material to the amount of
81 500 from taxation to repeal the
laws imposing license for the keeping
Of dogs, and number of minor amend
ments to the tax laws, highway and
bridge laws and other statutes.
