Following is the platform adopted:
The Republicans of Ohio, in Conven-
vention assembled, congratulate the
people that during the long term of
their control of the affairs of the State,
no stain has been found upon their
record as a party; that their manage
ment of local affairs has been true to
the moral and industrial interests of
the people, and therefore they conf
IDENTIFY point to their past as the best
evidence of their intentions Tor the
future,
ON NATIONAL QUESTIONS,
the Republicans OF Ohio claim tin
same fidelity to right principles and
practices that they have exhibited in
local and State affairs; and appealing
to the determination of the people to
maintain Republican principles and
practices, they offer for the candid
consideration of the voters of Ohio the
following platform of principles:
ResoLced. That we reaffirm and
adopt the platform and resolutions of
the National Convention of the Re-
publican party, adopted in the Con-
vention at Cincinnati in January, 1876.
Resol0ed, That the Republicans of
Ohio reaffirm their unfalterine con-
fidence in Rutherford B. Hayes as a
statesman, patriot and Republican, and
cordially approve and support his
efforts for the pacification of the coun.
try, and the establishment of its Civil
Service upon basis of purity and effi-
cheney.
ReSol1ed, That we reafirm it as the
purpose of the Republican
party, to maintain and enforce the
provisions of the recent amendments
to the Federal Constitution guaran-
teeing the equal rights of all citizens
before the law, irrespective of race or
color, and to insist upon the full and |
effectual performance by the Federal
Government in the execution of all

THE watering of railroad stocks, and
the establishment of fast freight CON-
panies, warehouse companies, equip
ment companies &C., have been pro-
life sources of evil, and when a rail,
road has earned enough to pay dIvi'
dends on all these latter it is little
wonder that nothing is left to pay on
the former. Nor is it to be wondered
at that the wages of workmen are be.
ing cut down. If there were some
way Of preventing the spelling of rail
road earnings, and watering stock,
railroad companies would have no
great difficulty in paying dividends or
supplying fair wager to employees.

THE MEN WHO ARE TO BLAME.

From the Grand ;laplds tMich) Eagle.
There are demagogues running loose
in the land who have for years been
rubbing the ears and stirring up the pas.
sions of the vicious, stirring up the
very spirit which is now drenching
homes in blood and giving property to
devouring flames. The Carys, Fields,
Pomeroys, and Trevellicks of the land
are responsible not little for kindling
this very spirit of lawlessness an NAL
ice and revenge. Let those who doubt
reflect upon the gatherings that in this
and other cities have alternately
cheered and Missed and groaned, and
uttered dire threats, as the the epi-
thsts of "Shylocks, "plunderers. {"
thieves" robbers" and all similar
phrases have rolled glibly from the
oily tongues of spoutiDg demagogues,
seeking to stir up discomfort and sour
it to madness and bitterness of spirit.
and lash it into vindictiveness among
the laborers and the rougher and more
reckless classes of the land.

EX-GoV. MosEs has been arrested
in South Carolina, on the charge OF
having issued fraudulent pay certifi-
Gates when Speaker of the House in
1872. The charge is probably true,
and the arrest is unquestionably in the
interest of good government and de-
cent morals. 1t was for the refusal to
commission this scoundrel as a Judge
that Gov. Chamberlain lost the good
will of the Supreme Court of South
Carolina-the Chief Justice being the
scoundreI's father.

ALTHOUGH the attitude of matters
in Ohio, during the ''greatstrike," was
very threatening at various points, it
affords us pleasure to note that ouf
State government stood up firmly and
strong for law and order, and quelled
all disturbance without calling upon
the National government for assist
ance. Honor to Governor Young fol-
his noble stand, and 10 the people oi

A rumor was received by cable lately,
that catastrophe had occurred at Mont
Gents, by which passenger trains were
blocked in the tunnel and traffic inter
rupted. The principles upon which the
tunnel was built; the geological char
scter of the secticn of which 1t is part;
and the care which marked every step in
It's progress, made this rumor incredible,
and gave assurance that, except with the
assistance of an earthquake, no such dis
aster ever can occur, unless all human
skill goes for naught. This stupendous
engineering achievement was first
thought of in 1882 by Joseph Medal, an
italian peasant, who had spent most of
his life in the locality, and who had
traversed many time Napoleon's car
riage road" A railroad over the Alps,
the rails lying along the zig-zag route
the French army travelled, was COM
pleted in 1868, at cost of $40, 900 per
mile, the train sliding down zig-zsgs on
the Italian side for over twenty miles by
its momentum. Snow and floods inter-
rupted it's course so frequently that at
tention was concentrated upon devices
by which the tunneling might be more
speedily accomplished. The work had
been inaugurated in 1869, the piercing
of the mountain having been begun at
both sides by hand--no machine existing
which proved of any use. In 1861, per-
forating machines worked by compressed
air, were introduced, an extra force of
men was put in at both sides, and no in
terruption was permitted at night or day,
until the morning after Christmas, 1870,
the two forces met. The cost of the tun-
neling was $l5,0O0,0O0. Its length is
about eight miles, and it is wide enough
for two tracks. 1t was opened for traffic
September II, 1871, and the closest
vigilance since has failed to discover the
slightest indications Unnatural change or
mechanical imperfection. The most
that could happen is comparatively
Insignificant landslide at ventilsting
shaft. This would not produce any ex-
tensive loss of life, although it might
temporarily interfere with travel. As
all well-informed persons expected, later
dispatches proved the story OF the dis
aster to be merely sensational fabrica-
ton.

Our Map.

We lay before our readers map of
that part of Europe which will be the
scene of opening hostilities between
Turkey and Russia. The eyes of mil
lions of people are likely to be directed
to this part of the world for some time to
come, and the result of the conflict will
be looked for with eager interest. The
unprecedented by us from the New York
7rsbune-will afford food tor study to
those who desire to keep track of the
two armies, and who wish to be posted
upon their future movements. The first
line of Turkish defenses runs near the
right bank of the Danube River, from
Chervetz to Silistria, while the Russian
army occupied Kischenef, a railroad
town between Odessa and Jassy, as
shown on the map. The second line of
defenses at which the Turks are in
trenched sin the Balkan range of noun
tains, and there they are strongly forti-
fed, and it will be difficult to dislodge
them, as the country is rough and un-
broken and forms great rampant
which will have to be surmounted before
Constantinople can be reached. The
map also traces the two boundary lines
of Ru.sia--oiie before and the other after
the Crimean war. The Danube is guarded
by Turkish fleet, which will cooperate
with the land forces.

MeSamch0lv Death or a Brooklyn
LG0n.
New York Hersld.I

Mrs. Roxanna Pinney, wife of Mr..
Pinney, a manufacturer of window
shades in this city, committed suicide at
her residence, No. 408 Clermont Avenue,
Brooklyn, at an early hour yssisrl-y
morning, under circumstances Off very
melancholy character. Mrs. Pinney had
been suffering from nervous affection
and general debility for the past three
years, and had been confined to her bed
for the greater part Of that period. OF
late she frequently spoke to her family
on the subject Of death, and week ago
held long conversation with her son,
a young MAI Of twenty-four years ofage.
She told him that she would soon be
with many Of her former friends, who
were waiting for her in the world beyond
the grave. Mrs. Pinney rose from her
couch at an early hour yesterday morn
ing and went into the bathroom. Her
protracted absence from her room finally
alarmed her husband, and he went in
search of her. Finding the door of the
bathroom locked on the inside, and being
unable to obtain an answer to his sum-
mons to let him in, the door was burst
open. The object of his search was
| found lying in the bathstu5, which was
two-thirds filed with water, life being
extinct, and the body being face down
ward. DR.. Corey was summoned imme-
diatcly, and ne gave it ashis opinion that
she had been dead about one hour when
discovered. In her room was subse-
quently found farewell poem, rePlete
/ with maternal affection, addressed 70
her children, and several keepsakes
which she had arranged for them. Every
thing indicated that the sad act vas
premeditated, but it is doubtful whether
she was mentally responsible. owing 70
her debilitated physical condition. De.
ceased, who was tifty-nine years Of age
had been contributor to various Perl-
edicals for many years past, and con-
nected with benevolent institnssn
