POLITICAL NOTES.
The next canvass for Governor in Ohio is
thus quietly settled in advance by The Cincinnati En-
quirer: OF Gov. Allen will be renominated and
reelected in 1875"
A good sign that the organs are gaining wis
dom shown the almost entire unanmity with which
they advise President keep his hands out Of the
latest Arkansas imbrogo.
Ex-GOv. Lucien B. Farchild is coming into
prominence in Wisconsin compromise candidate
between the Carpenter and Washburn FACTIONS The
opposition TO Carpenter is gaining ground every day
From present Indications the Democratic
majority in the XLIvth Congress will have ample
opportunity TO show whether it is disposed to be less
partisan than the Republican majority has been IN de-
Gliding contested G cion Notice has been given
already that the defeated candidates in three Congress
sonal Districts Wisconsin will the seats OF
their opponents and other states similar an
nOuncements have been made.
Now that ex-Gov. Seymour has withdrawn,
the Hon. Francis Herman be the favorite
didate OF tae Democratic press for the U. Senator
ship The Utica Observer declares in favor of him as
the who next TO Seymour represents most truly
the principles of the Democracy" 1t thinks the honor
should be gwen him for Two because he
made a splendid for Governor in 1872 and be-
cause he quick and approve the wisdom OF
nominating Mr. Tilden for Governor. Tue Republican
journals all refuse to accept exGDv. Seymours decna-
on sincere and final. and declare that he will enter
the contest at the last moment and be elected The
Elnird Advertiser Republican Journal says it prefers
of Fenton 10 the choice OF either
Herman or Seymour any oIner Democrat ont II sees
no chance Tor the election Oh any one except s .H
Democrat.
The proposition to make Fernando Wood
Democratic candidate for Speaker Of the next House
OF representatives is thus protested against by The
BuralO Courier: Already on the single ground that
Hon. Fernando Wood chose TO enrol himself IN the
list of 'saary-graobers, Democratic journals

on him to take back seat. The
Courier while recognizing Mr.. Woods great ability and
valuable services occasions the side OF me
people, unhesitatngly adds its voice 10 this call.
Placing it higher ground than that of party
policy the elevation of Mr. Wood this time is thing
not TO be thought Of. The Democratic party cannot
afford make any such msstep Salary -grabbers and
all others whose political names and fame not ALSO
uely unassaIable, must DO content now 10 10 To the

The self complacent remarks of President
Grant on the elections have convinced The Cincinnati
Commercial hatthe journals which have been Insisting
that he has for long time been working for third
term were talking such arrant nonsense after ALL 1t
SAYS: 'Such utterances from the President the
