Ohio has redeemed herself, and
stands square and firm on the finan-
cial issue that the Democrats thrust
upon her. The political campaign
has been an exceedingly active one,
especially for the last two months.
This contest was looked upon with =
great deal of interest, in all parts of
the country, the Democratic party hav-
ing planted itself square on the green
back side of the question, and against
specie resumption in the near future !;
while the Republicans adhered firmly
TO the line of policy which had been
adopted by Congress when the law
was passed fixing the resumption Of
specie payments at the beginning OF
the year 1879. This Ohio election
seems to have been regarded. in all
parts of the country, as kind of
sounding of the keynote Of the Pres
ential election next year, as it was
generally believed that if Ohio went
Democratic on this issue, tlNn the
Democrats would go before the coun-
try with this issue IN the Presiden-
tial contest. And it seems that Ohio
has pronounced for specie resumption,
and sound money by quite q decisive
majority. And in all probability it is
safe to calculate on specie payments
according to the act of Congress to
which refer.nce is had. We have
never believed that return to specie
payments would be attended with
anything like the general DISASTROUS
results to the general business of the
country that has been anticipated, for
the reason that all the paper Of the
Government that may be afloat will
generally be held in higher favor by
the community for commercial pur
poses than either gol'l or silver. Nc
one doubts the perfect solvency Of the
government, and just as soon as it i;
known that the greenbacks arc re
deemablc in gold or silver, at thu
pleasure Of the holder, all the golC
AND silver in the country will be helG
subject to check in the way Of com
mon every day circulation whcneve
wanted, just as greenbacks now are
hut al the same time the bulk of thu
business Of the country will be don,
with graenbacks just as at present
1t is our belief, therefore that thu
imaginary part of the trouble in til,
matter Of coming to resumption o
specie payments will be far create
than the real. 1t seems that we ar
about to the bottom, and as conf
denco is being restored, bushes
seems to awaken the dormant ant
discouraged energies of the people
and things begin to move in health,
channels. The great thing in the wa.
Of speedy return to national health
and soundness, is the vast amount o
surplus manufactured material, bu
we are thankful that stocks are bein
reduced, and manufacture are care
fully looking to the demand, befor
adding more to the surplus.

MacTeady.

A reviewer of Macready's reminis-
cences and diaries says: : He came into
contact with most of the eminent men
and women of his time, and lived on
intimate tern with many of them. No
actor since Garrick had so completely
won a place in what is called society ;
and Macready had won it by his own
strength and skill. There are innumer-
able memoranda of dinners at his own
house during the last twenty years of
his professional life, which, Judging by
the company assembled. must have
been as agreeable as any then taking
place He had relations with all the
eminent actors of the century, from
Mrs. SiddOns and Master Betty down
to Mile. Rachel and Miss Cushman.
He played young Norval to Mrs. Sid
dOnss Lady Randolph, and was called
into the great actresses room after the
play to receive some stately but most
benignant and intelligent advice. His
account of the scene suggests to some
trembling young aspirant admitted to a
supernatural interview with the sacred
Muse in person. He has a number of
sketches of Edmund Kean, who, ac-
cording to his account, played at times
very badly; and also of the Kembles,
whom he evidently disliked, and con-
corning whom we should say his testi-
mony must be taken with allowance.
Speaking afterwards very intelligently)
of Mile. Rachel, he says that in many
points she was inferior to Miss O'Neil
"a statement that renews ones regrets
at having been born too late to see this
actress. concerning whose mastery of
the pathetic contemporary evidence is
so singularly unanimous. But there
are some remarks in one of his letters
late in life about Ristori which are
strangely unappreciative, and which
confirm ones impression that his own
acting and the acting he admired had
little of the natural realistic quality
that we admire so much nowadays. We
get a sense, however, that, natural or
not, the English stage in Macready's
younger years was in some ways more
respectable institution than it is now.
The number of provincial theatres was
greater small country towns had fre-
quent visitations of players and the
most accomplished actors did not think
it beneath their dignity to play short
or secondary parts. NLacready, in the
fulness of MS younger reputation,
played Friar Lawrence, Prospero, and
Joseph Surface.

The American Centennial Thrown in
the Shade.

The Japanese have Just been celebrat.
ing the 2, 535th anniversary of the Rls-
ing Sun in grand style. Jlmmu Ienno,
the first emperor, was the fifth in de-
scent from the Sun goddess, Ten Sho
Dai jim, and the present mlkado claims
upbroken descent from him. The ma
tional celebration was heightened IN IN
terest by the fact that during the pre-
vious year Japan had emerged SO
gloriously in success and honor from
the Formosan affair.
Then an imperial princess had been
born. thus preserving the line OF twenty
five centuries. Finally, the day marked
the seventh year of the restoration of
the mikado to ancient power, after the
military usur cation of 670 years, and
the fact that the country could now
boast at once of true nationality, a
united purpose, settled government
and amicable foreign relations. To cap
the climax of their Joy, the English and
French soldiers that had been stationed
on the soil of Japan since 1868 were to
be removed February 18th.
Even the tycoon, from his exile IN
Sbidzouka, comes forth to help on the
national Joy and prosperity; for kelki'
as the last tycoon is called, though
politically the quandOm head OF hoary
usurpation, is personally an accom-
plished and benevolent gentleman, who
reioices in his country's welfare, and, to
prove it, has presented to one OF the
public libraries, in Toxic, 1000 works,
many of them rare and very valuable,
comprising many thousand volumes.

Mode Dresses.

A Paris correspondent writes The
Bon Marche has recently had an exhi-
bitiOn of mode dresses. The vast show
rooms of the silk department presented
the curious and novel spectacle of a
procession of gorgeously attired though
headless danes. Some of these toilets
are excessively pretty, while others were
rather too showy for perfect good taste.
In this category must be placed brll-
liant dress of poppy-red silk, trimmed
with scarfs and drapery of white surah.
An olive green dresG trimmed with folds
of plaid in white and olive green was
very striking. A tunic and sacque in
ecru lace over a richly trimmed skirt of
palest rose-pink, and caught up behind
with large pale pink bows, was one of
the prettiest dresses exhibited. Some
of these toilets were finished out to the
minutest details, even to the sun-um-

On the day when little Frances was
captured, fifty-nine years before, she
was carried rapidly through the woods
final halt was ma e near the Genesee
river. In the following spring she was
taken to Sandusky, where she STAYED un-
til autumn. when her Indian friends
moved to Niagara, where she lived a
year. in accordance with the nomadic
habits of her people, her home was contin-
ually changed. Her greatest dread was
of being discovered by her relatives and
aiken away, and there is no doubt that
when the weary mother was hunting up
aud down the earth, she more than once
came within hail of her lost child, who
carefu ly avoided her. 1t was fortunate
they never met.
Frances had been married TO q Miami,
by whom she had four children. She
was wealthy and held III the highest ven
Grafton by her tribe and descendants,
many of the latter being around her.
After time she seemed to form quite
an attachment for her brothers, who, of
course, were old men, and she offered
them half her land if they would live
near her. They in turn pressed her to
join them further east. but she thanked
them and declined. She was an Indian
in everything except birth, and such she
lived and died.

A Portrait of POcahOntas.

The Richmond (Va) Journal says
Doctor James Beale has deposited in
the state library a portrait of the Indian
princess Pocahontas to whom many OF
our leading Virginia families trace then
origin, which was painted in 1880 by the
elder Sully from the original portrait IN
the possession of the Boiling family.
This portrait makes POcahontas a very
pretty woman of about twenty years OF
age, and clothed in the upper crust tog-
gerry prevalent in the nation of her
father, King Powhatap. A copy of this
portrait is published in the History OF
the Indian Tribes" now in the state
library among those of one hundred and
twenty other distinguished abOrigiHals
taken from the Indian gallery of the
department of war at Washington. The
portrait deposited by DR. Beale is an
exact copy by the elder Sully, made in
1880, of an original portrait of Poca-
hontas, painted between the years 1916
and 1917, during her visit to England,
in company with her husband, John
Rolfe. The remains of the original
portrait were in 1S43 in possession of DR..
Thomas Robinson, in Petersburg, NIr-
ginia. Mr.. r. NJ. Sully, the artist in
trusted with the duty of reproducing
the portrait, took great pains and per
fectly succeeded in his undertaking.
Thomas Rolfe, son of Pocahontas, was
born at Plymouth, England, in 1916
soon after his mother arrived there, and
his mother died in Gravesend in 1917.
Her son, af er his arrival at mans estate,
returned to Virginia and married, and
died, leaving an only child, John Boil
ling, whose daughter, Jane, married
Richard Randolph, of CurIes, in the
county of Henrico, state of Virgi ia.
Ryland Randolph, son Of the latter, pro
cured from England the original por-
traits of John Rolfe and PocahOntasa and
placed them where they hung for many
years in his mansion at Tuckey Island.
Mr.. Randolph died in 1871, when both
pictures passed into the possession OF
Thomas Boiling, of Cobbs, in Chester
field county. These pictures are named
IN an enumeration of the estate of Mr..
Randolph recorded in Henrico county
court in 1884
