Live Stock Markets.

CINNINNATI, Oct. 30.
CATTLE--Market rather active, and
prices shade stronger for such as were
offering, which were all of the common
and medium grades and few feeding
steers. Good butcher and shipping cat
tie are scarce and in good demand.
Sales to-day ranged as follows: Com
mon, 24c. to 3l4c.; fair to medium,
3l4c. tO4lac.; feeding steers still con-
tinue active and firm, and the supply is
short of the demand. Sales for such,
SIC. to 414c. for fair to good.
HOGS-Market active and firm, and
the supply is short of the demand.
The weather now is favorable for
slaughtering, and the majority of the
slaughterers are ready to commence
operations, but the arrivals are not suf-
ficient to begin with. With increased
receipts, there would be very active
market for packing grades. Sales to-
day ranged as follows: Common light,
Sc 70 to 81 60; good light and packing
qualities, 81 10 to 81 4). Good butcher
grades would sell higher. Pens were
all cleaned out at the close of the mar
ket.
SHEEP-Market quiet and firm, SELL
ing at SIC. to 42244c. for fair to good.

INTEREST in the Ohio election was
not confined to the American States
The issue was one of worldwide i'm
portance, touching National honor
and credit as it did, and hence we
are not surprised that Foreign jour
nails express qualification at the re-
suit. We copy the London Times as
a specimen of this thankfulness and
interest, to-wit:
The politics of the United States have
so many points of contact or sympathy
with English ideas and interests that
their deliverance from formidable
danger is Il matter for which we are
bound to be thankful. The State cleo
tiOns in Ohio and Iowa, which were de-
cided on Tuesday, may be supposed to
have practically settled the most impor-
tant political issue which has divided,
or essayed to divide, the Union since the
slavery question and the extreme doc
trine of State rights were finally explo-
ded by the defeat of the Confederacy.
The more it is studied the grander
the victory becomes. AS in 1860, so
now, it was contest reaching to the
very existence of National honor, and
the Republicans now as then were
found battling for National credit,
and thanks to the intelligence and
patriotism of the people, victory fol-
lowed their efforts.

WHEN Democratic politicians get to
testifying against each other, the ex-
hibit of Democratic inwardness is odor-
ous. Gen. Slocum is running in Brook
lyn as an Independent Democrat, in op-
position to the Ring. Mclaughlin,
King of the Ring, made a speech
against him, in which he told that when
Slocum was running for Congress he
came to Mclaughlin and said he should
be defeated unless certain Republican
meeting should be broken up. Me-
Laughlin said that thereupon he sent
300 men, at cost of 5000, to break up
the meeting, and that Slocum never paid
him.
The King of the Brooklyn Ring told
this; yet we do not suppose single
Democratic journal in all the land will
see anything to censure in this confess
ed atrooity.-Cin. GAG.

Rev. DIR. HODGE was the orator at
the unveiling of the Stonewall Jack
son statue at Richmond, last week.
We quote this extract from his ad-
dress:
''The day will come when In some
form the principles for which JACKSON
fought will triumph"
jackson fought for the right of Sc
cession and for slavery; then these
are the things that will yet triumph.
Senator MORTON, during his late
speaking tour in Ohio, was charged
with raising the "bloody shirt" be-
cause he characterized public senti-
ment in the South as far from being
sound on the issues which the North
believes settled by the late armed
conflict. He was right. DIR. HODGE
is leader of Southern sentiment,
and his utterances are of great value
in determining the character of that
sentiment, and the tendency of
thought in that section. He yields
not to the bloody settlement, but be-
lieves the principles then fought for
will yet triumph. Are men holding
such views worthy to be trusted with
administering a Union free and in
divisible? The loyal people will
agree with Senator MORTON, that
neither they, nor their sympathizers
at the North, can be trusted with
such vast and important interests.

were three distinct shocks, following
each other in rapid succession, and
in a course from the southwest. The
vibrations were strong enough to rat
tie windows and crockery in a lively
manner, especially in the upper
stories of buildings, and IN some in

A Pertinent onestion.

The Stonewall jackson statue, re-
Gently unveiled at Richmond, is in
scribed on its base as "a tribute OF
admiration to the soldier and the pa
triot." A correspondent of the Gin
elnnati Commercial says ''the first of
these titles will be heartily acceded
to everywhere" but in regard to the
latter puts this pertinent question:
In short, if Stonewall jackson was ga
patriot" what were the men who died
fighting him? If both we're patriots,
then what, in the name of God, were
they fighting about?

meeting with encouraging success.
The leading New York papers give
full reports of all matters connected
with them
The New York Witness gives the
following summary of the first
week work:
This weeks work may said to have
been q work of preparation-of seed
sowing, but the ingathering has also
commenced. Each evening has wit
messed large number of inqiirers who
have sought religious counsel; until
last evening, as also on the previous
night, the gathering in the lecture-rooIn
of the Simpson NJ. Z. Church was SO
large that Mr.. Moody found it impossi-
bic to speak to every one OF those who
were seeking salvation without prolong-
ing the services until too late an hour.
From the young mems meeting,
which has been under the charge of
Rev. Charles Morton, of Plymouth
Bethel, there are also cheering reports.
The Clermont Avenue Reformed
Church, which holds fully l, 800 persons,
has been crowded every evening with
the very class which is sought to be
reached. There have been upward of
one hundred inquiries, and Mr.. Morton
says that he has reasons for believing
the majority of these young men have
been savingly converted.
The most important result of this
week of special services has been. how
ever, the general awakening among
Christian men and women, who have
been stimulated and encouraged to con-
secrated and jealous work among their
families, friends, and business acquaint-
ances. This has been the chief aim of
the preaching and prayers at every
meeting. Success in this respect will
afford the surest. promise of grand and
glorious results in the future.

occurrence, and any system that will
rid us of these frauds, and confine

The Times finds fault with the Cdtho-
lc Telegraph for saying that:
'sIt is, without doubt, the intention OF
the Republican party, in order to secure
the next Presidential election, to excite
in all parts of the country the embers
of religious discord."
We have more than once expressed the
opinion that the misguided zeal of the
Catholic Telegraph was injurious to its
Church and to the political party to
whose lberality all Churches are in
debted, but we detect large percentage
of truth in the above statement of the
Telegraph. Eng.
Which, fairly interpreted, means
that, though there did in reality exist
a Democratic Catholic alliance, the
Telegraph was indiscreet and injuri-
Gus in publishing the fact to the
world. The Enquirer is sorry, not
that the alliance existed, but that it
was made known, and thereby proved
unsuccessful.
