The Ohio Election.
Comments of the Cincinnati
Press on the Result.
All Agree that 1t Possesses National
Significance.
CHICAGO, Oct. IL.

CHICAGO, Oct. III.
The following are extracts from the
Cincinnati papers on the Ohio election:
The Euentng Times says: The Re-
publican party has suffered a Calamity
which. disheartening as il is TO Ohio
Republicans, involves serious ons
Quences of a wider range than the pos
session of a few unimportant offices in
a single State-the loss Of all repre-
sentation in the United States Senate
to the party which for more than
twenty years Lad a large rreponder'
ance of votes in the State, with a South
made solid for the Democracy by the
policy OF a Republican Administration.
We see as Enthusiastically in the future d
divided North with all that this situa.
ton implies.
The Gazette saws: Bishop gets less
votes in Hamilton county than any
Democratic candidate for Governor in
the last ten years.
The Commercial says: There are
abundant reasons Tor the Republican
defeat withal, going further than the
weakness Of the Republican party
The Democrats do not owe their sue
cess 10 their ~gn strength. or good
management. Their tickets wero weak
and Objectionable throughout.
The Enquirer avs Ohio spoke on
Tuesday. not merely upon local or
State questions, but to the Admins.
tratiOn and to Congress. Mr.. Have
was addressed; John Sherman wa,
talked to, specially and loudly; Con
gress WAS advised as tn its duty if il
would consult the pleasure of The peo.
pie Of the United States. This neal
ing of the vote in Ohio on Tuesday was
not personal, it was not a personal at
tack upon Mr.. Hayes. But Ohio did
say to Mr.. Hayes, change your finan-
cial policy. His accredited agent canhe
to the State to say 10 the people thai
the policy OF the Government was, in
the first place, to enforce the re suinp.
ton act. Ohio says tn MIR. Hayes. re-
move your Secretary of the Treasury

During his recent visit TO Eureka,
Controller Hobart informed the editor
Of the SENTINEL that the State reven
ues for this year alone would be more
than sufficient to carry on the State
Government for this year and next;
that 10 to say that tho total taxes to be
gathered from the people next year
will be wholly unnecessary, and for
all practical purposes might just as
we'll have remained in their pockets.
This 10 precisely what we have been
trying to beat into the heads of
taxpayers for the last six months. But
there Ia now no help for this state OF
affairs. The moment the Legislature
adjourned without . reduction Of taxa
tlon the people were left without an
alternative, except to face the music
and pony up the high rate. for the two
years next ensuing. 1t is pertinent to
say Ia this connection that every mem.
Der Of the Legislature who opposed
the COuiprotliSc VI Inc Du'iiou toA
suits. also opposed nth their rotes
any reduction In the State levy. The
friends Of the compromise were striv.
ing zealously for lower taxes all
around, while the opponents Of the
favored a continuance Of the
present high and unnecessary rate.
Time will tell who we're right and who
wrong, and the people Of the State,
particularly the taxpayers. will yet
discover who were their real friends
and who their enemies. A policy that
draws from the pockets Of taxpayers q
sun sufficient IN q year to defray all
Of the expenses of the Government for
two years, is criminally idiotic.

The telegraph brings news NJ the
death of Harry Meiggs at Lima. in
Peru, on the 10Th of last month. The
account given OF his illness states that
no had thrice been stricken with
paralysis, but the malady which
proved fatal was ~softening of the brain.
Meiggs was . remarkable man, the
personifcation, in fact, Of those daring,
energetic qualities which conspire to
make their possessor great in any call
ing Of life. His career on this Coast j.
familiar to all old Californians. His
operations In the early history Of San
Francisco were simply stupenduous.
He constructed wharves, laid cut
streets, reclaimed sand hills, chartered
lines OF steamers, owned immense
lumber mills up the coast. about
Mendocino. and was in truth the man
Of the times, and the most enterprising
citizen Of the then young city. He
was q member of the City Council,
and occupied various other positions
Of prominence and public trust. He
lived in elegant style, but In
his daily intercourse with his fei-
bowman he VAS a very plain, In.
assuming sort Of individual. Just
why or how lie failed. we have never
i, seen satisfactorily explained. One
morning In the spring OF 1854 Meiggs
and family were missing, and it was
discovered that they had embarked in
q sailing vessel for South America.
His debts amounted to nearly q mil
lion dollars, and 1t was also discovered
that he had forged q large line of city
warrants, upon which he had from
time to time obtained cash advances
from the banks. But little vas heard OF
him, until some years later he became
famous as . great railroad contractor In
Chilli. He rapidly amassed another
colossal fortune in his exile home, a
portion OF which was devoted to the
payment Of his old San Francisco
debts. Four years ago the California
Legislature guaranteed him immunity
from prosecution and invited him to
return to the State. But he had i'm.
mepse enterprises OF bis hands. and
could not avail himself Of the opportu-
nifty. 1t would have been better. per-
hsps. for the whole coast, had he never
have been compelled to leave. We
know nothing Of his origin or history
prior to his exploits In San Francisco.

ALMOST AN ACCIDENT. Last Tuesday
as four men from Clark u Wilburs camp
were coming to town, they were unior-
tunate enough to strike u snag, about u
mile and u half above this place, sllatter-
ing the canoe in several pieces, and in
stantly percipitating the men into the
water. Three OF them managed to cling
TO the wreck, give the alarm to parties
on shore, whe with as little delay as pos
sible came to their aid. The fourth man
was somewhat confused by being struck
in the tace by fragment OF the canoe as
he came to the surtuce. He attempted to
swim ashore, the tide was ebbing very
fast and the current strong from either
shore toward the middle OF the river
he was carried down stream nearly halfa
mile, went under several times, and a,
last was fortunate enough to catch
small snag, to which he clung till res
cued by canoe from the same camp
which was about mile behind at tn.
time of the accident. He had little
strength left when rescued; all hands
were thoroughly chilled and were very
fortunate to escape ut all.
