As regards the true causes Of the
defeat and utter route of the Grant
party in Ohio, we lay it to no cause
other than that all hottest men have
at last mustered courage enough to
demur against the tyrannical despot-
ism with which they have been CON
tending for the last ten yesrsj and as.
sert their rights to act for theniselvesi
The following sensible article is from
the pen Of a man who has kept tho
administration party intact in South
ern Ohio, more than any one man.
His paper, the Jackson Standard
fought manfully during the late CAM
paign, but the "tidal wave was too
strong, Honesty triumphed. But
here is what he says.
"The defeated Republican papers
are now all giving the cause Of the
defeat Of the Republican party in
Ohio. We also have our opinioni
In the last week Of the last Congressj
it was ascertained that the members
of Congress were determined to rob
the treasury by increasing their own
salaries. We then said that if the
President did not veto such a bill he
would be greatly to blame. In our
first issue after he had signed the bill
we denounced his action, We de-
nounced the faithless members ofCon-
gress from this district, but his tools,
bought with his checks on Selvin 81
Sons, came to his aid, and assaulted
us iuriously. Then came the State
convention, and dreading public opin-
ion, the convention denounced the
Congressional thieves, bit indorsed
the President, the most guilty party
OF all. This was the fatal error
Against that resolution there was no
defense.
Then the papers undertook to de.
fend the increase of the Presidents
salary by comparing it with the sala-
ries paid the sovereigns of the Old
World.
The people very wisely made up
their minds that this country shall not
build up an aristocracy, and that the
men who haye tothing to do but
sport around Long Branch at horse
races, shall not receive $137 per day
from the toiling millions who labor
ten hours for so.

FIRST saw Owens, says writer in the
Washington Chronicle. Then he was
the handsomest man on the stage,
with d superb and graceful figure,
fine features, and glorious crown
ing of golden-brown hair, which his
eccentricity caused him to cover,
when on the stage, with q fiery red
wig. At that day actors and actress
es, however high they might stand
in their profession, rarely attained to
any high social position. During
an engagement at the Baltimore
Museum he fell in love with and
courted the beautiful Miss War6eld,
the acknowledged belle and leader
in the aristocratic world of that city
famed for its beautiful women and
delicious terrapinl Owens benefit
was announced, and the Museum was
crowded to its utmost capacity, for
the handsome young actor was an
immense favorite with the theatre
goers. A long delay followed the
last notes of the 'overture; the band
again began to playa half and then
an hour, when the manager appeared
and stated to the crowd that their
money would be refunded at the
door, Mr.. Owens being unable to ap-
pear. The scene which followed
cannot be described. The next
morning the fashionable world was
shaken as by an earthquake, for the
announcement went forth that the
beautiful Miss Warfeld had
eloped with Owens, and her cousin,
Miss --, with a fellow-actor Of the
comedian. How the knowing ones
talkedP But years came and went;--
Owens and his lovely wife remained,
as they still do, a most devoted
couple; fair children came to bless
the union, and to-day who says
aught but that it has been q happy
marriage2

NAPOLEON IV. AND IMPERIALISM.
The London Times observes that
Oyears hence, when recent errors have
been forgotten, when the boy has
grown to be a man, when he has train.
cd himself in it for post higher than
he has yet occupied, when he has
gathered about him body Of devoted
iriends-like himself with hereditary
"reminiscences he has obtained
the necessary means, and whom, in the
shifting of political parties, the needed
opportunity has again oome round,
then may he step forward as his fa-
tber did, and aspire TO the rank hie
family has lost, the power, OF which
they have been deprived, the crown
of empire which he has never yet
worn. At present the ame"Napole-
on w." is o name, and it can be moth.
ing more. The dynasty for the time
being in possession, her imperial or
monarchical or democratic rulers, sit
always with a sense Of insecurity,
which the past seldom failed to justify.
But the 6ame changetulnoss, which is
80 terrible TO those who are in posses
sion may bo Of full hope for those who
are excluded. In ten years or twenty
years time, more changes than one
may have occurred. The possibilities
Of the future defy alike the mostsober
calculation, and the widest reckless
ness Of assertion, and who would dare
to say that among those distant pos
sibililies is not to be counted the ac-
cessiou Of a fourth Napoleon?"

THE BACK PAY STEAL.

Some Of our cotemporaries are, just
now, making appeals for the repeal of
"Back Pay Steal.p In case the law
should bo repealed, which is not at all
likely, what disposition will be made
of the matterY The fviends OF
the administration claim that Gen.
Grant was needy, and therefore did
right in signing the bill and, OF
course, they viii hold fast to their
original design. If is criminal fora
man tQRAke the money, after no
fought the measure and voted against
it, but in spite Of his efforts IL passed
both houses Of Congress, and the
President sanctions and makes it q
law, we are at loss TO comprehend
where the consistency comes in. We
would rather support the man in his
taking the money and appropriating
IL to the use OF bis family, ten to one,
thau willy sneaking ours who voted
for tho bill, and refunded the money,
all for the purpose of securing the
suffragos Of the people again, We
have no filth in The sincerity of the
"refundingn business We believe in
attaching the blame where ii belongs.
We hold that Grant is almost wholly
responsible, and in all probability the
prime mover in the moulding OF the
scheme. - BaEer City Democrat.

TIE NFw MARRIAoE Law IN Russia.
A new law has been drawn up in
Russia to legalize the family relations
Of those who do not accept the estab-
lished form Of faith. Hitherto no
marriage not celebrated in the or
thodox church has been valid; the
law has not recognized the religious
pruetices Of the scots, 80 that mar
riages have no legal validity, and
children have no right 10 inherit the
property Of their parents and re-
iations. Under the new law, though
the sects are ignored, their marriages
are to be legalized by registration at
the police Offices.
