She denies that she killed her second husband,

made the confession she remarked that burden

III ELECTIONS.

From all accounts we are forced to
the conclusion that In Ohio and Iowa,
especially In the former State, the Re-
publican party has suffered an inglo-
rious reduction Of majorities, II not q
disastrous defeat. The latest returns
indicate that the Ohio Legislature will
be largely Democratic, and that In
Iowa the antl-Monopolistst with whom
the Democrats combined) will have
control Of the State. Uncle Bill AL
len, whom the Democrats Of Ohio res
directed and placed In nomination for
Governor, has apparently succeeded.
Aud right here may It not be appro-
priately asked : Did not the strength
Of Bill Allen and his success depend
upon the fact that he was put forward
by the Democrats aud claimed to be
the representative Of J~eflersonian
principles9 Of those earlier days when
to be a politician, was to be both hon.
ored and honorable? Of. In fact, a Pc
riod In politics when something more
than cheek and chicanery was neces-
sary to win favor from the people :
We believe this Is the secret Of the
Democratic success in Ohio, and II the
Republican party does not learn wis.
dom BY this defeat, If salary grabbers,
yea, all Of grabbers and de-
faulters, are longer to be nominated
for the suffrage Of Republicans, we
hope they will be beaten every time.
But we will not further motalize.
When tho returns are all in and the
exact results are known, there may be
lessons for US all therein. We don't
believe the people always do right.
They sometimes 60 OF on a tangent In
the excitement Of sudden Issues, but
with the effort at reform in politics,
with the endeavor to turn out the
money changers from the temple, we
are fully In accord.

TUE doctrine Of Mr.. Greeley, that
the way to esum was to resume, Is
finding many believers now. The ex.
change Of gold Is In. our favor. Cur.
rency IL 90 scarce as to preclude the
possibility Of speculation in gold, and
1t does look as il action by the Govern.
ment ought at one sweep to obliterate
the distinction between greenbacks
and gold. In the first plunge is all the
danger. Once done, all the fear will
probably be over Touching this. Mr..
John J. Cisco, formerly sub-treasurer
at New York, and a we'll known
banker, says:
1t tho flow Of gold to this country
cannot lead to specie payment ;
nothing can till the Government takes
some action looking In that direction.
The war ended eight years ago, and
every one supposed that something
would be done. as there ought to have
been; but 1t has never been on the
card OF any Of our Secretaries OF the
Treasury to take such action, because
they have thought i~timpossible, which
simply shows that we have never had
one who understood his business.

From tho State Journal Of October l5th.l
Reardon, Collins and Larkin, three
young gents indicted by the late
Grand Jury on the charges Of larceny
and burglary, plead guilty In the Dis
trict Court. Last Saturday Judge
Harris sentenced the first and last
named to two years and Collins to one,
and they were taken to Col. Hyman's

Everything is reported as progress
Ing favorably at the new mines. Gov.
Blasdel went out yesterday to inspect
the same and will return this evening.
We hear that the Governor Is a little
"wlld" over the same-thinks 1t a big
thing. BY Saturday we expect to
have better news than eve to report.

A Venerable Newspaper.

The Washington Chronicle Of August
2lst has this:
The Baltimore american celebrated
its centennial anniversary yesterday.
The office was handsomely decorated
with flags, the coat Of arms Of the
State, etc.
1t also prints an illustrated supple
ment, with Baltimore town In l773,
and a picture Of It's first office.
Friday, August 20, 1873, the first
number Of the MARYLAND Journal and
Baltimore Advertiser was Issued. At
that date Baltimore had less than 5000
population.
4 complete history Of the american,
valuable as 1t Is interesting, Is given In
Yesterdays Issue, and, In addition, a
fac simile of Its first number accompa-
nies 1t. 10 modern newspaper men
this Ia very interesting, and when the
means Of communication at that time
are considered, 1t really contains a
good deal Of fresh news. For Instance,
L has European advices az late as June
IL, 1878; New York news of August
II, and Philadelphia news Of August
IL. 1t has nearly a column advertise
ment from George Washington, dated
Mount Vernon, July Is, 1878, having
reference to land patents Of his ''20.0 900
acres Of land on the Ohio and Great
Kanawha." The following advertise
ment Is copied in. full, not only rs n
specimen of the literature Of that day,
but rs an interesting historical remin-
iscence:
Prince Georges County, near Queen Ann, 177a.
IL December, 1TT3, Negro PRINCE, q tai,
slim fellow; has several hacks In his forehead;
he was taken up at Susquehannah Lower Ferry,
but mado bis escape. and is often seen In the
neighborhood. Whoever takes up the satd Ne
gro, and secures him In gaol. so that the owner
may get him again, shall have FIVE POUNDS
reward, or II brought home, TEN POUNDS re-
ward and ''''0 Rica ilsISi sE eSHS x HALL.
Only thirteen years ago similar ad-
vertisements might have been seen In
Southern newspapers.
The history OF the american discloses
the fact that Miss Mary Katherine
GODDARD was Its "~ostenslble printress
and edltress" In l775. aud that her first
editorial was published as far back as
February, 1774-so far as We have au-
thentic dates, the f1rst editorial by a
woman In America-and she continued
In full charge Of the paper until the
lst Of January, 1884.

it says: "After a careful examination
Of the rules Of the Civil Service, the

conclusion that any one who under.

explain its mysteries, Is lifted for any

their lack has been wholly In another
