NORTHMEsTERN RAILROAD.

On the principle that when you find your
neighbor or his property being injured from
a Misrepresentation Of facts it is your duty
to try and assist him or it, your cores
pOndent feels it Incumbent on him to Write
few lines in defence of one Of our much
abused railroads; it has become a common
saying that it is not only dangerous, but
positively a great risk to travel on the
Northwestern Railroad and the policy seems
to be that everything that could be said or
done to injure that road was right and
proper; in fact your correspondent had such
fears of the road that only short time since
as one of a party wishing to go to
Mckenzie he proposed paying extra fare,
and travelling thirty miles farther sooner
than risk, as he thought, his life on the
Northwestern road. He had not travelled
on said road for several years, and when he
did its condition was such that he had no
desire to pass over it if it could be avoided
But a few days since having business at
Mckenzie again and being anxious to lose
as little time as possible concluded he would
risk the Northwestern one time, and he
must confess that he was greatly sur
prised at the present condition
of the road, with new CrOss-ties,
bridges, trestle-work and a good deal OF
new iron, everything is now being done to
make it a fiIst-class road, and under the
present able management the road ere long
will be one of the best in the State. The
General Agent, Lands, has no superior,
the conductors, Harrison and Roberts, are
just suited for their positions, polite and &C
commodating, doing everything possible to
make the traveller comfortable, and the COM
pany have been fortunate in securing their
services, and with such management it is
certainly the interest of every one to assist
in removing the prejudices which have
grown up against said road, it being one Of
the most important roads to our city.

The ExposItion BuiIding.

Work on the Exposition buildings still
PROCESS rapidly and satisfactorily. Twen-
ty-three rafters have been put up, leaving
only three more to be raised on the sides
and those for the center arches. These
rafters for the sides and ends are each sixty
feet on the base with radius of sixteen feet,
while the center rafters will be each eighty
five feet on base with a radius Of forty-fVe
feet. Much of the building has been wealth
er-boarded and lathes placed on the rafters
ready for the roofing. The floor beams
for the gallery have already been laid, and
some of the flooring laid. When completed
the gallery, which extends the whole length
of the new building, will be twenty feet
wide and over four hundred feet long, fur
nishing a promenade grand and pleasant,
looking down Upon the magnificent scene
of art, science and natural productions
that will be exhibited below. The
erection of the four towers
will be commenced next week,
and when finished be quite ornamental to
the architecture of the building. Work ON
the addition to power hall has also been
commenced, and will soon be ready for the
reception of machinery intended for exhi-
bition, the shaftings having been placed in
position last week.

POLITICAL.
Meeting of Ohio Radical Convention.
Grant and DennisOn Nominated.

COLUMBUS, o., March 27.-The Repub-
lican State Convention met to-day.
Gen. John c. Lee, of Lucas, was elected
permanent President. On taking the chair
he made strong speech in favor Of Grants
administration and was warmly applauded.
Capt. A. 7. Wykof was nominated for
Secretary of State on the first ballot.
John Welsh was nominated for Judge Of
the Supreme Court, and r. r. Porter for
member Of the Board of Public Works.
A motion was made to nominate can
didate for Congressman at large and was
strongly objected to on the ground that if
this nomination was made it would have a
strong tendency to defeat any plan for re-
districting the State into Congressional dis
tTiets. This motion was laid on the table
by heavy vote.
Delegates were elected TO the Philadei-
phia Convention.
The Committee on Resolutions reported
aplatform which was adopted with cheers:
l The Republican party of the United
States had its origin in the necessities of
the nation, and since it came into power
has decreed and executed measures by
which liberty has been preserved and the
union saved from dismemberment and
overthrow and disorganization
and by its answering good faith toward
the national creditors, it has indicated the
national integrity and honor.
2. No other party known to history has
so grand a record, and no other party in the
United States can so proudly challenge the
continued confidence of the people.
8. We renew our expressions Of conf
dence IN the present administration of the
general government for tightening taxation,
suppressing Ku-Klux, protecting loyalists,
pensioning the soldiers, outstanding the
Indians, reforming the civil service and Sc
curing the treaty Of Washington,
4. A large portion of revenue necessary
to defray the current expenses Of the Gov
eminent and to pay its liabilities must be
derived from duties on import, these duties
should be levied with a view to equalize
the burdens and benefits among the people.
8. We are opposed to further grants of
public lands to corporations and mOnopo-
lies.
6. As there can be no productive in
dustry without union of capital and labor;
therefore, we are in favor of such legisla-
ton as will give all proper guarantees for the
safety and prosperity of the one and the re-
munerative investment Of the other.
Z. We have unbroken confidence in the
integrity, prudence and patriotism Of Pres
ident Grant, and are in favor of his renom-
inatiOn for a second term, and we present
to the Republican party for the nomination
for Vice President of the United States the
name of Ohio's first war Governor, Hon.
Vim. Dennison, a man eminently worthy
of the high Office.

Imprisonment is, under the law about $40

sees.
The people of the State have good reason
congratulate themselves HPOn this happy
solution of the question as to how the peni-
Tertiary is to be managed so as 10 be made
a self-sustaining institution.
The committee were pleased to see the
fidelity with which the lessees are perform
ing their stipulations with the State, in pro-
viding good clothing and healthy food tor
the prisoners. Everything about the prison
wears a cheerful and cleanly aspect-the
discipline is good and the prisoners look
healthy and cheerful.
The officers of the State are active and
faithful in the discharge of their duties, and
the committee are satisfied that the capaci-

ENGLISH NovELIsTs AT HoME.-Of course
we won't rank Mr.. Reade as one of the most
popular noyelists now in England But his
popularity is something very different indeed
from that OF Dickens, or even from that of
Thackeray. In Forster's "Lile of Dickens"
there is a letter of the great novelisfs in which
he complains of having been treated (by Bent
ley thInk) no better than any author who had
sold but fifteen hundred copies | should think
the occasions were very rare when Mr. Reades
circulation in England went much beyond ff.
teen hundred copies. The whole system of
publishing is so different in England from that
which prevails in America, our fictitious prices
and the controlling monopoly of our great Ii
braries SO restrict and limit the sale, that New
York reader would perhaps hardly believe how
small number constitute Il good circulation
for an English novelist. | assume that. sneak.
ing roughly, Reade, Wikie Collins and Trollope
may be said to have about the same kind of cir
culaton-almoSt immeasurably below Dick
ems, and below some such abnormal sale as that
of "LOthair' or "Lady Audey's Secret,"
but much above even the best OF the younger
noyelists. venture TO think that not one OF these
three popular and successful authors may be
counted on to reach circulation of 1000 copies.
Probably about eighteen hundred copies
would be a decidedly good thing for one of
Charles Reade's novels Of the three, | should
say that Wilkie Collins has the most eager read
ers; that TrollOpe's novels take the highest place
in what is called "society;" and that Reade's
rank the best among men of brains. But there
Is so wide difference between the popularity Of
Dickens and that of Reade that il seems almost
absurd to employ the same word 10 describe two
things 50 utterly unlike. II is, indeed, re-
marka0le proof Of Reade's power aud success
that, setting out as he always does TO tell story
which shall convey information and purpose
OF some practical kind, he can get any sort Of
largeh circulation at all for one great
charm ana excellence of our library system IL
