The Ohio Election,

There were very few, if any, thinking
Southern Democrats who fclt satisfied with
the platform of the Democrats Of Ohio
because the issues raised they considered
ill-timed and altogether inferior in impor.
tance to reform in National affairs, especial
ly Il reform in the relations existing under
Radical rule, between the Federal govcrn-
ment and the States. The tide was setting
strongly toward q speedy change for the
better protection of Home rule and the
surer triumph of the National Democracy
in 1876, when the currency question was
onwisely made the paramount issue bv tho
Ohio Democrats, and Il certain victory
bartered for an experiment.
At the South, we thought Of our WRONGS
of violated constitutions and outraged
rights; in Ohio, tho Democrats thought
only of dollars and cents, and planted
themselves upon n platform of picayuncs.
But. Notwithstanding this apparent neglect
of the South, the Democrats of Ohio We're
believed TO be the best judge of what plan
was best adapted to their local field of hattl e
and what would most certainly bring sue
coss, and accordingly the number of South
ern Democrats who did not sympathtze
with Stheir Ohio brethren was as few as the
number who were pleased with their plat
form. Hence, zee may as well confess that
the defeat OF Gov. Allen is not regarded
with stoical indifference, nor the success OF
his opponent with any other feelling but
that of regret. For one we do not believe

hat the question Of imitation had so much
% do with the success of tho Republicans
.he two parties occupying nearly the
Same Ground-as the tact that the Demo-
Gratis changed their position in q measure
and announced doctrines inconsistent with |
their record-with that Of Coy. Allen, |
their chosen leader. The re- !
suit, although matter of regret, will not
necessarily damage the National Democracy
next year, unless the ill-advised raising of
the currency issue provokes discussions in
our ranks in different, sections, by having
forced that issue upon the party when
others of much greater concern were prom
inent and upon which the Presidential
battle could be fought by the Democrats as
| a unit. But TO the result of the Ohio
defeat our able Mobile contemporary, the
| Register, is more worthy of a hearing, and
we copy as follows from that journal:
Whatever politicians may have thought,
the people Of Ohio have not disappointed
the predictions of statesmen, but proved
| that common sense and honor are as firmly
fixed in them as in the people OF any other
State.
The majority given Hayes ia just suf1i-
Gent to show that the "tidal wave" Of last
year has not expended its force before pu-
rifying the national ministration. 1t is
still resting. and has only swept off some

Time to rise until the work begun last
year be completed, stand who may, Demo-
. crat or Republican, in the way.
Had the inflationists succeeded in Ohio,
their line OF battle would have been adj

, ton next year. Whether they succeeded
, | there, or We're defeated, the actual result
would have been disaffection. Disatfection
, | would have been followed by division, and
!, division by certain defeat of the Democr;,-
cy.
+ We entirely agree with the ReEst er in the
hope which seems to animate it, that tho
| result in Ohio will thrust the currency
question out OF doors in the coming Prnsi-
Dental campaign: but We fear not. Tho
gold men will he embroidered to push their
plans of earl y resumption, which will GER
tainly antagonizc the friends of paper cur
rency and gradual assumption, and it
strikes rs that in tho conflict the cham
p:ons Of industry will take the side OF
paper money, while the capitalists will
| array themselves on tho side of specie,
| which would be exactly the reverse Of the
order of battle in .Jacsson's war with the
banks. This change Of positions seems to
, be accounted for by the fact that capt. nj
has been fostered by the Government and
would realize gold paper by early
resumption, whereas industry and labor
have been ovcr-taxeu and oppressed and is
simply content to abide by tho laws oi
trade and the currency as it stands.
But we arc not now to discuss tho cur
rency question, as ii has but little Signiii-
canoe to tho people of our State, except as Il
possible prominent Issue next year. Our
people are moro deeply interest cd in the re-
establishment Of Homo rule, and tho for
tunes OF this issue seem not to have been
decided to our disadvantage in Ohio.

Kentucky is not lacking in candidates for
U. s. Senator, AS the following item from
the Delta will show:
In Kentucky the contest for the United

dable proportions. The most conspicuous
aspirants now in the field are Hon. James
b. Beck, General Williams. Senator Steven
son and eX-Gov. Leslie. 1t is understood
that each of these gentlemen is organizing
for the contest. In addition to them the
names Of Hon. Isaac Caldwell, Hon. st Cd
dard Johnston, Gen. Preston and Col. w.
