New YORK, July ga short time since it
was stated that governor Bullock of Georgia
contemplated joining the democrats, in order
to avoid impeachment at the next session of
the Georgia legislature. Georgia papers received
at Washington this morning, contain q full ex-
position of the plan by which Gov. Bullock will
be rejuYenated This plan embraces large
number of well known republicans and demo-
Gratis of the states who are to rise simultaneously
and shout for :" the new departure"
oHIO-THE COMING CAMPAIGN.
NEW YORK, July N.-Telegrams from
Washington gives interesting information from
private though trustworthy sources concerning
the political prospects in Ohio for the election
of October Sth. The election will be one of
great importance. The legislature to be elected
will redistrict the state for representatives to
congress and elect United States senator to sue
coed Sherman. The democrats have begun the
canvass. They are troubled with the new de-
parture, though they may not lose many votes
by it. 1t is believed that Vallandigham would
have committed the party in the state TO it, and
drawn some votes from the republicans. 1t has,
however, dropped out OF the state canvass, and
only appears in the nominations of state sena-
tors, local officers, and the like About half
the state senators nominated by the democrats
are new departure men, Senator Thurman is
for keeping the party on the old track.
The republicans will open the canvass August
oath, at thirteen points, with popular speakers,
and hold nightly meetings till the day OF the
election. Morton will speak August 24th at
Dayton. 0the~ speakers from outside of the
state are invited. The state ticket of the re-
publicans 1t is estimated will have twenty thou
sand majority less the number of votes which
may be thrown for the prohibiIionsts' ticket,viz,
somewhere from three to five thousand. The
real battle will be for the legislature. From
present indications the legislature is doubtful,
with prospects of the republicans being slightly
ahead. If the republicans carry Hamilton coun-
ty they will certainly have the legislature. The
best feeling prevails in the republican party
The new departure of Gov. Cox and his friends
does not create the slightest disturbance or turn
aside any votes. On the state ticket and ma
tional questions the republicans enter the fight
with unbroken ranks sure to win. Schenck,
Hayes, Garfield and Sherman are the prominent
republican candidates for the United States sem
ate, Senator Sherman's chances being apparent
ly the best

YOUNG MEMS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
The annual report of the young mems Christian
association of this city has been issued by the
publishing committee 1t briefly explains the
work accomplished by the association for the
year past, without giving details in regard to
the sick and poor comforted and aided; for it is
a principle with the association to edo good Sc
cretly" An important step has been taken dur
ing the year, as we all know, in the location of
the society on Pearl street, where it has rooms
in every way desirable for the various gather
ings under its auspices, as well as reading-room
accommodations sufficient for all who may wish
to avail themselves of the opportunity so gener-
ously offered. Out-dstrict meetings have been
sustained at Valley Falls, Adams square, North
Pond, Chamberlain district, Worthwhile, Mason
street, the poor farm, Tatnuck, Quinsigamond,
Grafton street and Orient street, and much in
terest has been awakened. Sunday schools have
been conducted by the association in several Of
the places named, and teachers have labored
steadily and earnestly in their self-appointed
tasks, which have been attended with difficulties
in some cases that required perseverance and
Christian benevolence to overcome. The socia-
bles held weekly at the association rooms have
attracted large numbers of young people, whose
time was thus passed pleasantly, which, were it
not for the entertainment and hospitality thus
offered, would most likely in many cases have
been much wose than wasted Sick rooms have
been visited, and invalids cheered by the pres
ence of members of the association, which has
a regular system of furnishing watchers for the
destitute afflicted with sickness, and, strangers
coming to the city have, in many cases, been
given aid in procuring work and suitable board
ing places. For all such good deeds, gratitude
dwells in the hearts of those assisted and com
forted; and the reward shall be openly mani

The CITY HosPITAL.-A preliminary meet
ing of the board of trustees for the city hospital
was held July 10th, but no business of impor-
lance was transacted at that time, and the meet
ing adjourned to last evening, when all the
members were present DIR. Kelley was chosen
president for the current year, and MIR. George
Jaques secretary. Drs. Kelley and Sargent and
P. L. Moen were chosen committee to report
at an early date in regard to the ways and means
of carrying out the purposes of the institution,
which, for the present, cannot be expected to go
beyond the accommodation of fifteen or twenty
patients. The feeling was unanimous among
the trustees that action should be at once taken
in the matter; and there is little doubt that from
this beginning the grand idea of the hospital
will ere long be realized.
AcCIDENT.-Mr. and Mrs Chas. b. Pratt
were thrown out of carriage, between Web
ster square and GAINESVILLE, yesterday afternoon,
and MIR. Pratt was so badly cut and injured
about the head as to be delirous for several
hours. Mrs. Pratt was also somewhat injured,
but not seriously. DR.. Martin was called and
dressed the wounds of Mr.. Pratt, who had been
carried into house near by belonging to Mrs.
Benton after which he was carried to his resi-
denee on Main street, in mentally and physi-
cally deranged condition. The horse, which was
young one, was frightened by yoke of oxen
at the side of the road and jumped over the
wall, clearing himself from the carriage and
harness, which were sadly wrecked. 1t is a
wonder that both Mr.. Pratt and his wife were
not killed, as the place was very rocky where the
accident happened. Mr. Pratt was suffering
great pain last evening.
