.,.,r ~ a fortunate dclivcrance from II
,.-rst po.ltigal danger. The Republicans
have rrco,qurrcd the great State which
they lost twoycSrs ago, and what Is more
important, they stand before the public
\, champions Of sound currency. Ihey
are fairly entitled to the credit OF having
secured The country from great danger,
and their success will have decided
influence or the subsequent elections OF
,as present year. For the sake Of the
.,.ntry everybody should rejoice tina!

The Philadelphia Tones, commenting
upon the insertion ofthe financial plank,
saws that the Ohio Democrats made
grea. mistake in lighting on that issue,
rather than against the fraud and cor

Andlui.s bearings on the Pennsyl-

a Republican surge Of victory breaks
upon Pennsylvania within three weeks of
one Of the most important political ver-
diets her people have ever rendered. 1t
matters no. how or why the Republican
tide has been created-whether by folly
OF the defeated or by ststegy Of those
who have triumphed. II is Republican
wave that breaks upon the loose, uudis-
cjpIined and uncommanded Democratic
lines. that must drive them from their
hopeful position for time, if it
does not break them IN con-
