prised to see the State really won by the
Republicans on that issue. The Democratic
party, true to its instincts, has espOused
the cause of scheming churchmen who
Geek to overthrow our present system
of education, and by so doing have
reused the most violent opposition. This
feeling extends not only to declared
Protestants, but to all who feel strong re-
puguance to anything Lilo religious inter
ference in politics, and who consequently
look upon the alleged encroachments of the
Romish Church with suspicion. 10 out
siders the currency issue is the transcendent
one, but to those familiar with the feeling
in this State, there is abundant evidence
that this school question is quite as i'm
portant, and, before the campaign shall be
Over, may become the issue which shall de-
eide thes contest. This, coupled with the
fhct that the Republican nominations are
most admirable, gives us confidence that
Ohio will be redeemed this fall by very
decided majority. The result in that State,
either ono way or the other, will have
most important bearing on next years cam.
paign, and will be watched with the great.
est interest: We hope - Republican will
be deceived by any of the pretty promises
of the Democratic candidates or OF their
platform, but that all will lend their
strength to the success of the whole Repub
lican ticket.-Chicago Inter- Ocean.

Suffrage and che Sex.

While in America the prospect for female
Suffrage at generAl elections has, since the
agitation of the subject, Aever been more
remote, its adoption in limited form in
England has been SO nearly achieved as to
fill its advocat with renewed energy, and
Justify their hope thst withina few years at
most they shall witness the triumph of the
measure for which they have fought 80 gal
lantly. The bill before Parliament provided
that unm arried women, who are household
ers in boroughs and qualified in counties,
shall be entitled to exercise the elective
fraDhise. On division of tho House the
measure received l52 votes out of 339, q
majority of but thirty five against it. The
ebill was introduced by Mr.. Forsyth, tory,
and received the votes of Disraeli, Halker,
Manners. and others q the government,
Bright, and others, voted against it.
The debate was instructive, amusing,
spisited, boorish, cynical, and abusive, &C.
cording as the speakers were intelligent,
facetious, earnest, Or preiudiced. Mr.. For
syth sketched the rapid progress of the
movement for the form of suffrage pro-
vided by the bill. In 1868, the petitions in
favor Of the measure were seventy five,
with $4,000 signatures; in 1875. the petition
had Increased to 1000, with 100000 nan es;
while not single remembrance against it
was lying "a the table of the House. Fe

married women, ut favored the right on

Most of the above figures give the major
tiles in 1874, where such peculiar influences
combined to throw the elections into the
hands Of Democrats. The fight was waged
by tho latter, mainly under the disguise of
reformers or independents, and this, COM
'bined with the apathy Of Republicans,
gave those victories which astonished poll
ticiahs of both parties and encouraged tie
Democracy to throw off all disguise, and
assume their old name and cOlors. Though
the elections to be held this year are in the
main unimportant so far as the officers to
doubt show vast change from that of q
year ago. Ia Arkansas the Republicans
have cdktaiuly majority in fair vote,
but the rascally registration law in force
there when manipulated BY the present
gang at the head of affairs nay result in
cheating them odt Of victory. There is
hope, however, that sufficient precautions
will be taken to prevent the triamphi
Of fraud: In Kentucky a gallant
Ian, the Republican candidate for
Governor and the Democratic majority
will no doubt be largely Reduced, as the
management Of State affairs by the present
Democratic government has been abomina-
BILE, and produced wide dissatisfaction.
California is somewhat divided by local
questions, but the State is soundly Repub-
llcan on straight. political issue, and will
so prove. Maine is, Of course, Republican;
as are liza, Wisconsin, Kansasand Mime
sofa. Virginia, Missouri, Texas and Mary
land are Democratic, although the majority
in the last named State has been steadily
decreasing, and Republicans have hopes Of
overcoming the comparatively small advan-
tsge still retained by the opposition. Mis-
sissippi is largely Republican, and will re-
main go, unless intimidation and murder
drive Republicans from the polls. New

acr oss the room at the widow.
But now poor Sandy saw another skefe-
ton. His eyes came upon them suddenly,
in sort u discovery. 1t seemed as if he
had just found them out for the first time.
and knew them for mortal enemies, and de-
termined to do away with them at once,
and At any sacrifice. Such hands Had
the widow really been looking at them I'll
this time! The back of that hand was big
and rough as the bark of i tree. That finger
nail had white rim Of dough around it; tfat
thumb nail was as big and about as dirtyks
y crevicing spoon He picked up that
hand, thrust it under him, sat firmly over
on that side, and held it down and out of
sight with all h4s might. The other one Law
there, stiHin the way. 1t was uglier than the
one he had just slain and hidden away in the
bush. There was dirt enough about the nails
10 make q small mining claim. He rolled
the hand over and over on his lap az if it
had been somebody b baby, and q baby with
the collie. At last, in state of desperation,
ne rolled 1t off and let it fall and take care
OF Itself. 1t hung down at his side like
great big felon from the scatfold. 1t twisted
and swung around there o If it had Just
been hung up by the neck in the expiration
Of some awful crime. 1t felt to Sandy as if
it weieh he'd a ton. He tried to lift it up
again, to take care of it, to nurse it, to turn
II over on its stomach, to stroke it and talk
to It and pity it and soothe away its collie;
but 10! he could not Mt it. He began to
perspire, he was go very warm. 1t was the
warmest time that Sandy had ever seen.
All this time Sandy had sat close by the
door and not one word had he uttered.
The widow rose up. laid her work on the |
table, all the time SMILING sweetly, half |
sadly, and, going uIfto the fireplace, took |
from the box in the corner pipe-kaot after
