The fifty or sixty thousand Repub-
licans in Ohio, who for one reason or
another have failed to vote for the
last two years, will not stay at home
this year. This prediction we feel
ourselves authorized in making. The
whole State from one end to the 9th
er, is disgusted with Democratic man
agement, Democratic Legislatures,
Democratic Geghan 5iiis, Democratic
Potter enactments, Democratic Wood
county Investigations, Democratic
economizing. Allen has had his day.
His coarse egotism, his timid double
facedness on the currency question,
his intense partisanship. have settled
his fate. With him will go the whole
ticket, from Gary down to the last
man whose name is printed on the
ballot.-Cin. Gazette.

SENATOR Sargent made neat little
computation in his recent speech
at San Francisco. "Have you" said
he, "thought, fellow citizens, that the
reduction of the national debt has
been $l20 a minute since you have
sat here and / commenced talkingf
Taking the average of the whole time,
the reduction of the debt has gone
on at that rate. Why, take your
watch and look at it. See the second
hand as il flies; at each tick of the
second hand, So during the whole
time since Grants Inauguration, by
day and by night, upon weekday and
Sunday-$2 per second in gold has
gone off the national debt" Com
ment is superfiuous.

The New Hampshire Canvass

The hills of New Hampshire are all
alive with the rallyng cry of both parties
for the election which will occur on Tues
day next. Both are active and confident,
each has its favorite champions on the
stump. Fred Douglass has been making q
sort of triumphal progress through the
state. Crowds have everywhere flocked to
hear this convincing and eloquent speaker.
The democrats have announced General
Gordon of Georgia and Colonel Lamar of
Mississippi. 1t is evident that the last
possible vote will be called out. New
Hampshire has been the favorite ground
of politicians. AS its election occurs the
first in the year, and the people have no,
much of anything else except politics to dc
in the few weeks preceding spring, the re-
suit OF every well-contested struggle il
always watched with great interest And
politicians will reg[d the issue of the con
test next week as Indicating somewhat thu
set of the general Current. The vote very
much depends upon the course of the indie
pendent republicans. Wherever they &C
victory will probably perch.

The stories of Two Dogs.

Mr.. Wheeler of Oxford, Conn, was
aroused from sleep Tuesday night by the
barking of his dog, and found his house on
fire. Rushing out he gave the alarm, and
returned to find himself cut off from
reaching his wife, who two days before
had been confined. He smashed in win
dow through which he reached his wife
and babe, but the wife was carried to a
neighbours three-quarters of mile distant,
and in the excitement the babe was carried
to another neighbours. in another direction.
The other members of the family escaped,
but the faithful dog which saved the fam
lily persisted in the flames.

Judge Poland and Arkansas.

Mr.. Poland's argument was elaborate
and more than usually effective, and, add.

is, in effect, an instruction to the Presi-
dent to refrain from giving any support to
the pretensions of Brooks. -Aem York
Times.
Judge Poland opened the debate after
the recess. and in really great speech-a
speech which produced conviction and did
what very few speeches in Congress do,
changed votes, presented the question in
all its aspects AS chairman of the COM
mittee and author of the non-interference
resolution, he closed the debate and carried
the day.-New York He'ud.
Judge Poland's last official act is one
with which he may be proud to end his ca
reer in congress, which is, on the whole,
unexceptionably honorable. AT a period
when partisan and personal considerations
seem to govern the actions of so many men
IL political life, it is especially gratifying to
see a man rise above the low plane on
which the most of his party associates stand
and at the same time display an ability and
influence sufficient to carry his party with
him, even against its will. That is just
what Judge Poland, ably seconded by his
associates of the majority of the Arkansas
committee, has done.
The scene was very impressive one AZ
viewed from the gallery. In the center
of it stood Judge Poland, always striking
| figure, and especially so tonight as he tow
cred above the black mass of men about
him. AS he passed from one point of biz
subject to another it became more and more
apparent that he was winning the house t.
| his side. His reference to the characte
of the men who were pressing TO-
Brooks recognition, beginning with thu
Rev. Gov. Brooks, who, he said, wen
through the state in the canvass of 1877:
like red cross, and to that model judg
who he had heard was known among pro
fame men as "Poker Jack" were particu
larry happy, and again and again put tn
house in roar of laughter, His argument
were compact, directed in every case to tn
point he was describing and wholly un
answerable. In closing Mr.. Poland refer
red indirectly to the prevalent report tina
other influences than those of partisan
character were operating against the resc
luton. To those who were influenced b.
the lower and baser motives he would no
speak. They had no right here.
Judge Poland's speech is universally at
mitted both by friends and opponents

made on the floor of the house this session

was received, dated the 10Th of May, and
the bank deposit reduced, and the note paid
by check given the same day but dated
May 28d. The defense interposed Illus
tratcs the view taken of these matters by
"well-known and wealthy" citizens and is
thus stated "Hls action was perfectly
illegal, although, from moral standpoint,
'it might not be strictly upright and fair
minded. Other acedtiy men in the com
immunity do precisely the same thing and are
"not called to account" All, there's the
rub Nothing very wrong about 1t, perhaps
not strictly moral, but other men do 1t.
Yes, other men do 1t. We can all recall
instances. We have known two men, one
residing In New York and the other in
Vermont, who always owed, each to the
other, some hundred thousand dollars.
Each man called his own note debt, but
the one he held was not so considered. The
note he signed would offset money loaned
but not the note he held against his
brother-for brothers they were. We
knew man who always resided
in New York on the first OF
April, but when the day came for making
up the list in that state he was a citizen of
Vermont We have known men, residing
and doing business in one town, remove
during the last days of March, TO another
town where he was unknown and his resi-
dence would probably be undiscovered in
time to have his name placed on the grand
list, and il il was, his list would be lighter,
and the per cent of tax, In any case, would
be much smaller than that voted in his own
town Time enough, always, to see in
what town the tax was lightest, and to re
side" for few days accordingly. These
are Luta few of the devices resorted to, land
we refer to them because they are matters
of common notoriety. If such practices
are unrcbuked, If the listers neglect to act
wisely, justly, .tearlessly in these cases, q
wrong is done the town and to every hon.
est taxpayer. Our listers can compel Re.
turns under oath, and in cases of doubt
they should do SO. So long as men will
endeavor to cvade the payment of taxes
the only security for honest taxpayers is in
sworn returns. A few convictions for per
jury in making such returns would materi
ally increase the grand list of Vermont
We await the verdict in the New Jersey
case with interest, anxious to see whether
twelve impartial jurymen vail find that mel
swearing to false returns of this kind are
guilty, at the most, of something which
may not be ''strictly fair. minded but per
fectly excusable, because ''other wealth,
I" men in the community do precisely thu
same thing and are not called to account.
1t is Tor that jury to decide, by their yer
dict, whether it will do any good to cal
those "other wealthy meA' to account.

The Retiring Nom bers.

AT the close of the forty third Congress
larger number of members retire from
each branch than has ever been known be-
fore. In the house many of the old and
leading members either declined or failed
to receive nomination, and it can scarce
ly be hoped their places can be made good
by those who have been elected to succeed
them. Massachusetts, will greatly miss the
most valuable services of men like Judge
Hoar and Henry L. Dawes in the popular
branch. The form and face of Ben Butler
will most certainly be missed from the po-
sition he has so long occupied-whether
for good or evil we will not attempt to dis
cuss. The blue coat and gilt buttons OF
Judge Poland will not be seen again among
the active representatives. Horace May
nard of Tennessee, for twenty years a
member from that state, will cast aside his
congressional mantle and many others
whose faces have long been familiar to
those accustomed to watch their delibera-
tons for many years.
In the senate we find nineteen who have
borne upon their shoulders the senatorial
toga, called upon to cast it off, whether to
place it where it will he worn by others
more worthy to bear it, time alone may de-
termine; although it is quite safe to say, at
this time, the country will lose but little in
the retirement of many, while the places
of others cannot be filled by those chosen
to succeed them. Men like SchurZ, Pratt,
Scott and Ramsey will be greatly miss
ed among those who have labored long
by their side in the party fold; al
but the latter are to be succeeded by
men who will be more inclined to teal
down than build up the work of thell
hands. Senators Carpenter and Chandler
will be found where most of the people
would prefer to see them, attending t
their own private business rather than tina
of the nation. Senator Fenton was no
recognized by the party he tried so hard t
help into power. Senator Brownlow o
Tennessee claims he is about to step ~
higher, from the senatorial to the editoria
chair while poor Upton, who has done 81
much to edify the floor and galleries will
his Overlooking fountain Of wit, will hay
to be content with the applause of thos
he may find to listen to him on the plain
of Nebraska.

1t is the general imptcssinu of the mer'
chants of long standing in the cities that
there is nothing now wanting but "a charge
in the weather to bring about revival in
trade, for which all business men have long
been signing. The general condition of
the time are favorable enough, old stock in
the hands of country dealers must be get
ting low, and q week of sunshine would
set most people to the work of touching
up their houses and replenishing their
wardrobes. The demand for houses and
real estate are brisk. The stock market is
rising, and however much we may some
times abuse the stock market, ii is generally
an unfailing barometer of the state of trade.
There are no dsquieting political events in
the immediate future, at least none that can
be seen. There is evidentlyto be determin.
ed push made this spring to increase oul
trade with the Pacific coast, and to devel-
ope the immense riches of the territory
lying between the Missouri river and the
western seaboard. Altogether the pros
poets have not been so good for months
past us they are to-day. All classes vii
probably have occasion for congratulatior
on recovery in general business which
will effectualy dispel the last remaining
clouds left by the panic.
