The Ohio Campaign.

A correspondent OF the New York Times,
writing from Cincinnati, June 10TH says
Advice from the interior OF the State is
to the effect that the Republicans will go
into the Fall campaign almost everywhere
without a division. The canvass of the
gubernatorial question thus far has plainly
developed he fact that they will support
no one who antagonizes Mr.. Hayes. The
expression is general that the Southern
policy was an experiment that had to be
made sooner or later and that Mr. HAYES
was IN MS good position to make it as any
President could be. So Tar ms can be ns-
certained, the sentiment Of the Republicans
in Central and Northern Ohio is briefly
this: The situation is not quite what the
friends OF humanity would wish, but it will
never be made better by the defeat Of the
Republican party. In the progress Of that
party, in improving the condition of the
oppressed, we have had 10 make occasional
brief halts This is such u halt hut in
due time we will move on to better things.
As long ms semi-barbnrism rules any por-
tion OF the South il is imperative that the
nation rs whole should he govcI ned by
the Republicans. Ii Hampton and Nich-
oils keep their pledges well, we have then
gained our object. II they 10 not, theirs
will be the loss, and those who made The
attempt in good faith will be inlurscd BY
an intelligent people. The sudden abln-
donment OF the grecnback question by the
recent Democratic conference at Columbus
has by no means taken the imitation idea
out OF the Democracy. The same old talk
OF "plenty OF money, interconverible
bonds and ruin by contraction" is heard
IN all parts OF the State. The silver dollar
is seized upon with aviditv, but ii the con
vehtion comes no nearer to soft money
than this, there will he loud talk from the
Cary-Ewing-PendletOn wing of the party.

The ReglstrntIOn Law.

The Democratic papers are feariully op,
posed to the Registry law, passed at the
last session Of the Legislature, They seem
to think it will work to the interest of the
Republican party at the approaching elee-
lion. The law was passed for the purpose
If preventing frauds upon the ballot.boxes.
Every Republican voted for the hill with
this view, aud if il effects this object, il
will lie in the interest OF the Republican
party because, viii, q pure ballot box the
Republican party will he as sure to carry
the next election as the sun will be to rise
on the morning OF the election, and that's
why every Democrat in the Legislature
voted against the passage Of the Registry
bill. Looking these facts in the face, how
could the party that scFuples not to deRle
the ballot-boxes be expected TO unite with
tho Republicans in the passage of the bill,
or support It's principles after It hns become
a law2 The provisions OF the law affect
all political parties alike, 80 far as all par
ties are alike disposed to gam success at the
polls by equally honest means "That
