THE EASTERN QUESTION.
Turks who Favor War.

LONDON, April 6.-The Pera correspondent of
the Times says that many high Turkish officials
advocate pressing a war on Russia, but this
feeling is not shared by the Executive officers,
as they are about sending an ambassador to
ST. Petersburg. Eminent officers have been
sent to command the armies on the Danube
and the eastern frontiers, and there are people
who consider war essential to the safety of
Turkey. as the disbandment of the army is
considered frought with great danger.

that the second condition that the Porte should
place its armies on peace footing and send an
envoy to st. Petersburg to treat of disarma-
ment has been accepted. The Turkish parlia-
ment. to which it is said both conditions will
be referred, is no doubt subject to the influence
OF the government, but the very delegation
OF the decision by the Porte to the popular
assembly seems unfavorable to the policy of
concession.

THE COMING MAN.

The Democratic success IN ONO Will
bring to a white heat the metal winch
for many years has been frozen IN the
open furnace doors. There has been
wonderful vitality in the Democratic
machinery, which each year, without
fabrication from the public oil, save
now and then spindle or q piston. has
continued to grind and saw and putt and
blow at every crossroads from the Ono
60 the Lake. The Democratic party,
rank, and file ought to be well educated
for the leaders have instructed them on
all sides of every question. In tunes
to which the older men date the teach
ings were loud and strong for hard
money-nothing was money but gold
and silver. TIC be Democrat there
must be worship 81 The golden calf, and,
ike the children of Israel of ancient
days, he was required to sing 'These
be thy gods, oh Democracy" Then
came the eloquent Pendletop, with sill
yer tongue, and Granger Allen, with ten
acres OF voice, hornyhanded Cary, with
his unsha7en locks, and, acting as the
united Moses Of the party, they ground
the juvenile povine to powder and
sprinIled it upon the whiskey,, and
made the sons of ancient Democracy
drink that they might live. So the song
of the modern Democracy is not of the
money that clinks and glitters and pulls
upon the suspenders, but the rustic OF
the crisp greenback is as pleasant to the
sons as was the clinking dollars to the
fathers So OF all other questions,
Democratic eloquence has been heard
on all sides, the leaders striving to catch
the popular voice that would seat them
with official homo s, than which, to a
genuine Democrat, nothing on earth
beneath or heaven above is more desire
able. The result Of the recent election
in Ohio viii cali, and be answered by,
an army willing to be sacrificed upon
official affairs. It viii be found that
Ohio Democrats ere not whit behind
their Republican friends, and they will
find enough great men to fill from Presi
dent to super 7isor, with material to
spare. The soil appears to be wonder
fully prolific OF statesmen, and we shall
see them march to the front with the
characteristic modesty of Buckeye states
men.
The Grand prize the United States
Senator, is already grasped at. Who
will it be? The new Governor, Bishop,
the merchant prince, will make his
claims as the standard-bearer with VIC
tory on his banner. Ex-Governor Allen,
the Cincinnatus of the party, will be
willing to leave his pillow in the frrrow.
General Ewing, the orator and keen de-
batter; General Durbin Ward, with
honest record as soldier and citizen;
Groesbeck a national reputation as
reasoner and thinker; Gather, the OF
ganizer and man OF business; each of
these will come forward with strong ad
herants. But if the friends Of George
IT. Pendleton are discreet he will have
but little trouble in walking over the
course and taking the prize, preparatory
to the grander prize to which he aspires
at the next Presidential contest.-I1steJ'

THERE arc two amendments to the

Supreme Court, and the other relates to
the payment of claims against the state.
The ballots used in voting on those

ballots are to be deposited on election

THE OHIO ELECTION.

The excitement which followed the
Ohio election was much greater than the
apathy which preceded it. This is en-
iirely owing to surprise at the result
which was apparently unexpected by
all. Of the various causes to which the
defeat is attributed we think the one
most erroneous is that which ascribes It
to the Presidents policy. On what
ground can it be charged to the Presi-
dents policy Z? Both party platforms
expressed approval CT his course. The
policy il heartily endorsed by every
Democrat in the land, and this some
times finds expression in conventions.
Why then should Republicans. unfriend-
y to the Presidents policy, abandon a
party divided in sentiment with respect
to that policy and fee TO party unani-
nous IN its support? When people
desert an organization through hostility
to an accepted principle it is not to offer
their allegiance to another organization
in which that obnoxious principle is
more strongly avowed. Those who
would do so are OF that class who had
rather ''rJ,le in hell than serve in heav-
en- We are ayerse to belief in that
turpitude which would induce men to
look with disfavor on policy designed
TO restore confidence secure peace and
purify civil service. soincere efforts
toward the restoration Of good feeling
and the removal OF corruping influences
should, and generally do, receive com
incubation instead of rebuke. We think
with the President that she serves his
party best who serves his country best
and Il duty TO the country is necessarily
incompatible with duty to the party
still let II be done and the party viii,
soon have no wants that are net also
those of the nation. IF the defeat IN
Ohio may with truth be charged TO the
Presidents policy, then was the Repub-
Hcan party sick s'nigh unto death and
all honor to the physician who admin
istered the sharp medicine which en-
feebles bat to restore to health.
