A low tariff on manufactures in which there

no work at all, for it is evident that the home

The Ohio Democrats held their State Con-
vention at Columbus last Thursday. Govern
or William Allen was repeminated by accla-
nation; Samuel F. Cary, the old temperance
lecturer. was put on for Lieutenant Governor;
and candidates were selected for other offices.
The main contest in making the platform was
on the currency question, and resulted in a
victory for the expansionists under the lead
of Allen. Senator Thurman and his hard
money followers had to take back seats on
this issue. The Convention also resolved
against all "sumptuary laws" which plank
we suppose Cary is ready to stand on for the

A correspondent of the Pittsburg CONNER
c,nl says that with one or two exceptions the
Southern States will all go Democratic at the
next Presidential election. This is not be-
cause the Democrats have majority, but the
black voters will be intimidated and kept
away from the polls. The correspondent
thinks that Henry Wilson, Judge Kelley and
others have been badly humbugged, having
met with none but whites who blarneyed them
with view to future results.

The crop prospects of the Southwest are re-
presented as unusually good. A special to
the Cincinnati Commercial says the young
crops of corn and cotton in the valleys of the
Arkansas, White, Yazoo, st. Francis, and
along the main rivers south to the gulf were
never more promising than now. Field hands
are more industrious than at any time since
the days of slavery, and from early dawn un-
til darkness checks labor men and women are
to be seen in every tillable field. Present APP
pearances indicate the most prolific yield for
many seasons.

Twelve of the fifteen candidates ON the
Democratic ticket in st. Louis at the recent
election were Catholics, chosen only because
they were such. That influence completely
controls the party action. The result is that
independent and intelligent voters are dispos-
ed to revolt, and this is particularly the case
with the German element The opinion of
careful observers is that the Democrats, by
their subserviency, have thrown away their
best chances in the West.

The peach growers of Delaware held con-
vention at Dover the other day to consider
the situation. Seruch r. Shallcross, one of
the heaviest men in the business, was in the
chair and took an active part. 1t was agreed
that the crop this year would be enormous,
amounting to not less than six millions of
baskets, Of which four millions would be ship
ped to market by rail. The idea of many was
that the immense yield would be nearly as
bad as o total failure. on account of the
probable low range ofsprices. Efforts are
making, however, to obtain reduction in the
cost Of transportation, and no doubt the can
ming business will be more active than ever.
There are plenty Of people in the country who
would like to have the Delaware peaches, if
they can only get at them.

great powers secure such popular conf

1t means that those who become supe-

educators of the people on the same
principle of benefcence, and think moth

plain, democratic support, which will
always be at their command.
1t means that those whose great busi-
ness capacity shall place them at the
head of the mighty enterprises of the
age, shall act in the same spirit and
with the same good faith for the benefit
OF the whole people.
1t means that all superior men and
women, in whatever calling, shall make
the highest possible good of the entire
people the sole object Of all enterprise,
all study, all science, all art, all oratory,

by entering this aristocracy, while ev-

people would be blessed by this "Blessed

: In this region the tellurian prospect is
most encouraging. Two weeks ago the
severe winter retreated not to return ex-
cept in due time, and spring has rapidly
pushed forward her work. Three weeks
ago it was supposed that the season
would be two or three weeks later than
usual, but the uninterrupted warm
weather for ten days has pushed vegeta-
tion forward to its usual stage at this
date. Pasture is now abundant. Fruit
blossoms are opening. Strawberries are
likely to come in by the middle of May
and be plentiful by the first Of June. The
drouth last summer, however, killed
SO many new plantations that the enor-
nous supplies of former years will be
somewhat diminished. There will be a
good crop Of peaches if not hereafter
killed. The same with apples, cherries
pears and all other fruit. Last season
was rather too prolific of fruit for either
profitable production or a profitable
market for the dealers. This season the
business bids fair to be healthy for all
parties. Wheat on bottom lands is in
tirst-rate condition. On up-lands it is, in
places, damaged by the winter. Oats
have been got in late and many
fields, indeed, all upland fields,
have been plowed too wet. Still the
weather is now favor able, and this CROP
is likely to secure the first growth upon
which. o remunerative production de-
pends. Germ is in the future, but II
rarely fails in this country. On the
whole, agriculture, the basis of all ma
terial prosperity, fully promises, in this
region, to insure universal satisfaction
for 1875, the centennial year of the open
ing of the revolution, the first decided
event of which transpired on the 10th OF
April, 1775.

"THE BLESSED ARLSTOCRACY OF
THE WISEST"

Aristocracy originally signifed gov
ernment by the best. 1t now means
government by the worst. We do not
say that the worst men are at the head
of the State, directing the political ma
chinery Of government. We mean that
government in its broadcast social sense
is in the hands Of the worst instead of
the. best. Outwardly, the masters and
mistresses of society do not seem to be
the worst; but when the results of their
government are considered, they are
shown'to be the worst. They ruin one
class by misapplying excessive wealth
to purposes of vanity, pride, genteel dis
sipation and fashionable depravities; !;
and they ruin another class by inficting
upon them poverty and humiliation, and
surrounding them with all the circum-
stances of debasement and degradation.
Instead of being govern ed by true
aristocracy our society Is under the con-
troll of kakistocracy government by
the worst. Our kakistocracy is omnipo-
tent over the fashionable world. 1t is
well known that those women who reign
at the center of fashion are the worst of
their sex-utterly abandonded and cor
rupt-an indubitable kakist0cracy. Their
DEGREES are so potent by their own in
trinsic energy, that the authority Of all
the great artists who have ever modelled
q human form, the authority of all the
great teachers Of religion and masters of
philosophy, together with the authority
of all the physiologists, anatomists and
physicians-all this in addition to every
suggestion Of common sense and CON-
mon prudence, has not the weight of a
straw against any decree that goes forth
from the kakistocracy OF fashion. And
so woman, who might be the paragon Of
beauty, by obedience to these DEGREES,
makes herself the most calamitous Of de-
formities.
Then we have the kakistocracy OF
