The Ohio Democrats.

When Mr. Marsh, Of New York, was sum
moned before Mr.. Clymer'5 famous commit
tee, and made the revelation which disgraced
Secretary ljelknap, It came out incidentally
that Mr.. George II. Pendleton, Of Ohio had
availed himself of his intimate relations with
General Belknap to collect an unjust claim
against the govemment--a claim so worth
less ON its merits that the claimants whom
Mr.. Pendlcton represented were quite will.
ing that their agent should pocket more than
half OF the entire proceeds. In the same way.
when Mr.. Blaine was said to have received
seventy-fve thousand dollars in bonds Of the
Kansas Pacific railroad, it appeared that his
cousin, General Thomas Ewing, also of Ohio,
had received the bonds for certain services
not specified.
General Belknap was Immediately inn
peached, and is furthermore under indict-
ment for malfeasance in office. Mr.. Blaine,
il the bonds had been traced 10 his hands,
would have been out of the race for the
Presidential nomination. aud is handicapped
by the mere suggestion and suspicion Of cor
rupt practices.
II was under these circumstances that the
democrats of Ohio met in convention last
week, and not only selected Mr.. Pendleton TO
preside over their deliberations, but chose
Mr.. Pendletou and General Ewing b. repre-
sent them in the national convention at st.
Louis.
This was bad enough, but worse followed
Ohio is represented in the national Senate
by statesman whose name is synonym
for good sense, integrity and patriotism.
Senator Thurman is an honor TO his state
and to his party. His adherents formed a
large minority in the convention, but unfor-
tunately only minority In the committee
on resolutions, they secured the adoption Of
a report in favor Of a sound financial sys-
tenn. In the convention minority report
was adopted calling for a repeal Of the law
fixing date for the resumption Of specie
payments and for the defeat of all schemes
for resumption which involve a contraction
of the currency--that is 10 say, OF any pos
sible scheme for the acceptance Of green
backs for customs, which would drive gold
finally out Of use, and for a law making the
new silver tokens legal tender for all debts
To cap this climax of absurdity, the conyen-
ton proposed as the choice of Ohio for the
Presidency, Ex-Governor William Allen
who not long ago pronounced the resumption
! of e. u lao a.

INTERESTING INcrpENT.-The recent sale
OF the pictures belonging to the late William
I, Bodgett one of the truest and noblest
of the merchant princes Of New York, re-
calls to the recollection of a correspondent
am interesting incident told by Mr.. Blodgett
himself not long before his death. Some
years ago he came into possession of one of
Meissionier's masterpieces-the chess play
ers." 1t cost him three thousand dollars.
Whenever he visited Paris which was nearly
every year. Goupi came and made offers for
the MISSIONER. First it was five thousand
dollars, then six thousand dollars, and so on,
up to eight and ten thousand dollars, as
the last resort but Blodgett informed the
importunate dealer that he did not want TO
sell his pictures; he bought them for the
pleasure of himself and the public at home.
At last Mr. Goupil stated he wanted the pic
ture for a collector who had place for Just
that one, and no other would answer his pur-
pose "Would Mr.. Blodgett sell it for
twelve thousand dollars in gold 2" Mr..
Blodgett, at the mention Of 80 large a sum,
felt he could place it TO better artistic adj
vantage than to retain the picture he
could do more good with the money. lie
consented TO the sale. lie went at once-it
was late in the afternoon-to the ocean tele-
graph Office and sent dispatch to his New
York agent to send the picture by the next
steamer After Mr.. Blodgett got home to
his hotel he remembered he had not sent
word to insure this costly picture. The
next morning, feeling little nervous about
the risk he was taking, before breakfast he
went again to the telegraph office lie added
the words " Insure for twelve thousand
dollars in gold" According to directions,
his agent insured the picture, shipped it on
the VWe du Hacre, and with the loss of that
ship there was destroyed one OF the most per-
feet of the creations of the great artist Nleis-
sionier. The twelve thousand dollars went
into the purchase of other works of art

THr GovrHNoRsnIp. - Nothing appears
To have been settled regarding the Governor
question during the past week The friends
of several Of the candidates are busily at
work, and considerable sharp sparring has
taken place between them. We are of the
opinion, however, that the office should and
this year ,cR, seek the man, and not the nan
the Office. II is a bad year for states, and
the undue anxiety exhibited by some of
those named To secure the prize will, we i'm
agine, have tendency to injure their cause
before the convention. This travelling about
the state, " seeingpeople and fixing things" in
advance, has about had its day-and it is
well that it is so. There will be very few
mournes at the funeral of this mischieyous
custom.

SEVEN out of the ten Republican news
papers in New Hampshire which have de.
elared their Presidential preferences, are in
favor Of Mr.. Bristow The latest To express
itself, changing from Blaine to liristow, says
there is no Disgusting the fact that great
change has been wrought in that state and
that "many prominent Republicans who
were for Mr. Blaine are now advocating the
CLAIMS of Mr.. Bristow."

CoSGnrssMAN iIoAR made a strong argu-
ment before the impeachment court, holding
that an officer cannot escape the punishment
due to his oifense by attempting to escape
through resignation while resting under
charges OF corruption. That is undoubtedly
a strong point but was Belknap resting un-
der such charges, in the proper meaning of
that term

TnE crimes of the Molly Maguires,"
of the Pennsylvania coal region, as disclosed
by the detective who joined the Order for
that purpose, are enough to make ones hair
stand ON end. The Orleris secret, and com
posed exclusively of Catholic Irishmen, who
band themselves together for the protection
of what they regard as their rights and
they do not hesitate, in the pursuit of this
object, to commit any outrage, including
murder. Policeman Yost was murdered by
direction Of the Order, and the murderers
are now on trial for the crime, the detective
before referred to being the chief witness
against them, 1t is to be hoped that they
may be convicted aud the Order broken up.

GOVERNOR CHAMBERLAIS, of South Car
olna, seems to have good prospect for
reelection. The Republican opposition to
him is bitter, but his personal popularity is
so great that his enemies concede his re-
nomination now. They promise further
more that il he is nominated they will not
bolt. In view of these circumstances the
democrats are advising that they put up no
candidate against Governor Chamberlain,
but concentrate their strength on the minor
officers. The Charleston Ne,cs and Courier
does not favor democratic Endorsement of
Governor Chamberlain, but thinks no candi-
date should be run against him.

saw mill. in Acton, while pine log was
being sawed up into lumber. The outside
slab and one board had been cut off, and
while the workmen were turning over the
log they were surprised to see large toad
poke his head out of a hole in which he was
lmbedded ,and where he had barely escaped
being cut up by the saw How the stran-
ger got there was mystery, as he was
completely encased in the wood. with no
possible means Of ingress or egress. AS
the log was the fourth or fifth from the
butt of the tree. his position must have
been at least fifty or sixty feet from the
ground, and he had no doubt grown up
with it from infancy, being probably hun
dreds of years old The animal was quite
fiat, and nearly rs large as mans hand.
He was perfectly blind, but when taken
from his bed he made use of his limbs to
crawl away. The tree was perfectly sound
with the exception OF decayed spot OF
about foot in length below the hollow
place in which he was imbedded How
did he get there. and what did he live on?

A Choosing

"Ihe child is mine" said the Daylight,
"for she is most like me;
So get thee hence, thou gray Night,
We've nought to do with thee!
Eer eyes are blue as my skies;
Her locks are like the sun;
She shall but sleep meath thy skies,
When my glad hours are done"
"Not so,' then spake the Nighttime.
''She's fair US is my moon;
And her voice is like the love rhyme
My own bird sings in June;
Her eyes are like the star gems
Set far above the sun;
And her bresth is sweet as the blossoms
That open when thou art gone"
"Choose thou me-" said the Daylight,
"FOr all the world is mine,
The birds sing in my gay light
Like gold the waters shine;
And mine are all the best flowers
Thai over the whole earth grow
And mine are all the blithe hours
Wherein men come and go"
Nay, be thou mine" said the Night time,
''For too can give thee gold
i'aler indeed is my bright time,
Fainter and somewhat cold;
But the lover loves my fay y-light;
With me the poet sings best;
While the toiling children of Daylight
Can use me but for rest"
Then she answered "While flowers sunlit
While the bird and the hummng bee,
And the eyes of playmates lit,
Are Just enough for me
While burdens are light for bearing,
While sorrow is loath to stay
so long, beyond all comparing.
will love thee best, . Day!
But, when | shall find a gladness
To all but myself unknown;
And when there shall come a sadness
needs must endure alone:
When grief is too great for weeping
When bliss cannot bear the light
lis then, while the rest are sleeping,
That I'll watch with thee, o Night!''
