The case Of DR.. LAnahan against DR.

to-day. A motion for mdnddnins was
opposed on the ground that DR.. Lanahan

subordinate to DR.. Carleton; also that he
has been suspended from his functions as
such subordinate; that the act inCorpor'
ating the Concern has never been ac'

that by resolution OF the Con:

Tho Ohio Democracy Cheated in their

nounCed, McCook had 225 and Ewing 19l.
Two persons of prominence in the par.
ty, who kept full and careful tally
sheets agree that Ewing really received
943, and McCook only gel. The mistake
arose entirely from unlntentional mistakes
in counting up the delegations. By a

The Future of Gold.

From the Financial Chronicle.
The general impression is that gold will
not rule much above liz, if indeed It can
be sustained nj that price. The reasons
on which this inference are briefly these.
First, the normal premium on gold is al.
lesed TO have been OvercstimAted. Taking
lnlo account the growth of the country,
the exteAt TO which mercantile transac.
lions are doRe Tor cash, the boarding and
absorption OF greCnhaCks in the South, tho
amazing expansion Of the area in which
the interior commerce Of the nation Is car.
ried on, and the prodigtous increase of
railroads and other productive works,
there Is relatively very little more currency
ahOat now than before the war, when we
were at specie payments. Hence it is ar
gued that the natural price of gold TO
which the market price always tend to
approach, Is not very fur from It's present
price, and consequently no large advance
could possibly be permanent, If indeed 1t
could be reached at all by some sudden
spasm, sOmU irregular speculative manip.
