POLITICAL.
All hail Ohio The dispatches from
that great State, m aking certain the cleo
ton Of Hayes on an honest, hard money
platform, gives more satisfaction in New
York than any piece Of news that has
reached US since the taking OF Vicksburg.
The majority is small, but it is enough
The battle was fought on the square issue
of honesty Us. dishonesty, and the vote OF
Ohio settles the question. The rag mon
eY manufactures are pushed up sg ainst
the wall, the government will ray its
debts initiation, with reputation lurking
in its shadow, is dead and business men
breathe easier All honor to the honest
men of Ohio. All honor to the noble
Republicans of that noble State, who
placed themselves between their country
and ruin, & fought so well the battle up
on the result of which the business of the
country depended.
The news was received here, as yon
may suppose, with the liveliest satisfac-
ton. The decent Democrats were quite
as well pleased as the Republicans. In .
tact. among the business men, there was
no diversity of sentiment. All were glad
that the rag baby had "died bornin,
and that it got its quletus before it got
large and strong enough to do any harm.
Now let Pennsylvania follow suit, and
the question as 10 which party will elect
the next President, and the principles
that will govern Its action, as regards
the finances of the country is settled.
Speaking of political successes, tho
SITUATION IN THE CITY
is not only entertaining, put instructive.
John Kelley brawling, pot-house, corn

lately held by Tweed as the head of Tam

The best Judge the city ever had is re-

been the error of the dangerous classes.

Much is said of Aliens loss of votes in
his own county compared with the re-
turns of the election of 1873. This is &C.
counted for on the hypothesis, that when
the old man first ran for Governor,
good many of his Republican neighbors
voted for him as a personal compliment.
This time they justly thought the times
unpropiuous for ceremony.

The Perrysburg frauds have rather
startled the State for their boldness and
audacity, while their stupidity only ex-
cites contempt. The vote cast for Gov

whole of Wood county was that cast for
Grant and Greeley-4s90 The highest

the polls in a. body, where they deposit

He was slaughtered. John Kelley in

He made the nominations, and New York
