THE OHIO VERDICT.

The Republican papers seem 10 be proiouhu
" puzzled to interpret the recent ono verdict
II means that the party is dissatisfied with the
Presidents southern policy, says one. Anotl
es is confident the party meant to express Us
disapproval Of the new civil service rules
And still another says the party failed to come
I'D to the rack because they disliked John
Sherman's financial ideas.
Isn't all this sheer blind talk against better
knowledge? The people were fooled yeal
ago into voting for the republican ticket by the
howl of the bloody-shirters that all that had
been gained by the war of the rebellion would
be sacrificed and lost if the democrats got into
power. But when Hayes was inaugurated
about his first important act was to adopt the
very democratic policy towards the south
against which the bloody-shirters had set up
srch howl; and the people saw that the pol
lev worked well and that the bloody shirt howl
of the wear before was wicked fraud. What
followed? Why they voted to approve and en-
dorsc the presidents democratic policy and tc
do so naturally voted the democratic ticket
Instead of the popularity of Hayess southern
policy enuring to the benefit Of the republican
party, il counted on the side where it justly
belonged-that of the democrats, and it was
ridiculous and childish for Hayes or his advi
sers to suppose that they could control and di
rect to the service of their party the general
popular approval Of principles which that par
ty had always antagonized. That's all. Tit
people of Ohio meant to endorse the Hayc:
southern policy, but to do so ciiectually votet
the democratic ticket

A fearful storm swept over England COM
mencing on Sunday evening and lasting until
o'clock on Monday morning. Immense dam
age was done on land by wind and flood and
there was great damage to shipping.
The Mark LINE Express says the imports of
foreign wheat into London continue large, and
it is evident that Russia is straining every nerve
to turn as much of her wheat as she can into
money before winter closes her ports, from the
fact that last weeks returns showed the arrival
of over fifty thousand quarters of ST. Peters
burg wheat 1t is necessary, however, care
fully to bear in mind the enormous consump-
ton of the country as well as the possible re-
quirements of the continent to avoid falling in
to the erroneous idea that we are threatened
with a glut of corn. A fair amount of steadi.
ness characterized the wheat trade at Mark
Lane but the transactions were limited with no
tendency to a decline. Maize is dull and Sd

FOREIGN NEWS.
The Turco-Russian War.

A week ago the utmost depression had ap.
parently seized both armies in Bulgaria The
weather was cold and stormy, the camps were
lakes of mud, and the suffering of the troops
understandable. In addition to these discom-
forts, the Turkish army was being derimated
by typhus. Since Saturday, however, the
weather has cleared up and become much mild
err, and now the dispatches say every indication
in Bulgaria points to an early and important
movement by Suleiman, in which the Russo
philes predict he will experience rough hand
ling by the Russians, who are entrenched at
all points and are amply prepared. Suleman
defeated, a combined attack on Plevna could
not fail of also being successful. In Short say
these Muscovite dispatches, the Russians are
ON the eve of general successes. Meantime it
is admitted that a third convoy under Chefket
pasha entered Plevna on Monday with rein
forcements and provisions for Osman and his
army, and that the attempt of Gourko to inter
rupt communications between Plcvna and Or
chanie have totally failed.
There seems to be no doubt that in an i'm
portant attack by the Russians on Mukhtar
pasha before Kars on Monday the Russians
gained signal advantages. Their dispatches
claim that Gen Heymann, with ten thousand
infantry, carried Olga Tepe, the key ofthe Tur-
ksh position, by assault, cutting the Turkish
army in two. The centre and left wing under
Mukhtar himself, retreated upon Kars, pur.
sued by Gen Heymann and harassed in flank
by Gen. Lezaref, but succeeded in gaining the
cover of the fertilization after fearful rout,
during which the Turks lost great number
in killed and wounded, several thousand pris-
oners, and four guns. Three divisions consti-
tuting the Turkish right had, meantime, been
surrounded and attacked and driven from their
fortified camp with great loss. Finally, at s
o'clock Monday night, Il remnant of this por-
ton of Mukhtars army surrendered, with thir-
ty-two guns end great quantity of material.
Dispatches from Mukhtar, though claiming
his losses to have been but 500, substantially
confirm the Russian reports of the battle

many years. He was by birth Scotchman,

the largest ever seen in the city He died sud.
