Ohio claims radical attention just now
on account of a prospective quarrel over
the Senatorship. Sherman says he don't
want the place. and that makes the 9TH

wants it but his most ardent friends do
not think him fitted for the place. He
has no natural aptitude for the duties of
n legislator, and little if anv experience.
Garfield wants it, and has the ability
and experience TO make himself felt. He
also has the confidence of his party in
Ohio. The fight, therefore, will proba-
bly, be between Sherman and Garfield
with the chances favorable TO the latter.
He is extremely popular here. Whoever
is elected will find it difficult to fill
Senator Humans place.
Officers of the executive committee OF
the Ohio river commission are making n
tour Of the States bordering on the Ohio
river, with the view of uiging upon the
Governors Of those States, the impor-
lance Of more active effort in that direc-
ton. Governor Bishop, of Ohio, has
promised TO do his utmost TO further the
work The commission will meet in
Washington, December 10th, and invi-
tations have been extended TO the Gov
ernors Of States specially interested -
The work Of this commission if it DO in
telligently done, will with the jctties Of
Capt Eads at the South Pass, be Of in
calculable benefit to the enormous popu.

Mississippi system Of rivers. While
Congress will carefully examine any
propositions Of tho commission. there is
no doubt liberal appropriations will be
made ~ carry out any scheme which is
finally approved. MEMO.

The New York ELECTION. -Oficial
canvass OF the election returns through
out the State began on Tuesday last,
and will not be completed before Fri
day or Saturday. We therefore await
the oflicial returns.
VIRGINIA ELECTION 1T Is now con-
coded that the 'repudiators" have car
ried Virginia. 1t appears that there
will be l6 Republicans in the House,
and s the Senate. which gives them
the balance OF power, enabling them to
elect, between Conservative candidates
for the United States Senate, the one
that is less Objectionable, or mole &C
ceptable, to them.

WHAT WILL Follow The Rich
mond Di.patch says: The McCulioch
bill has certainly received the endorse
ment OF large majority of the proper.
ty holders OF Virginia. Indeed, If il
liad not been for the negro vote there
would have been scarcely dozen Agi.
tators elected to the General Assembly
in Virginia. Richmond city pays about
one seventh Of all the taxes received
into the State treasury, and here the Ag.
itators were so few in number that they
did not evenput up candidates for either
the Senate or the House Of Delegates.
Norfolk city was carried by the votes of
the negro non-tax-paycrs. The whites
gave majority for the McCulloch bill.
The same Is true ~ TO Petersburg. we
learn. Alexandria gave large MAORI
ty for the McCulloch bill. So did
Lynchburg, Danville, Fredericksburg,
Lexington, Manchester and other
towns. Where the largest por-
ton of the taxes are paid is where the
McCdlloch bill is strongest. And it
would be q most unprecedented state
OF things if it should so happen
that the impecunious negroes would not
let the large property holders pay q
debt which these latter know to be
honest, and which they are anxious to
pay. 1t is poor compliment to the ig-
norant negroes, who have once more
been deceived by demagogues. that
they should show themselves to be so
completely at the mercy not only OF
the carpeL-baggers and scalawags but OF
every unprincipled retailer OF humbugs
who attempts 10 make tools o. them.
CANNOT REPEAL IT.-Thc readjust-
ers have not elected enough members
Of the Legislature TO repeal the McCul.
loch settlement. as bill TO repeal 10
would be vetoed by the Governor. and

always in the best of tempers on paper, is
unifor Wy kindly and affeclionate at home
and is, withal, the most tender and in,lu-
gent of grandfathers. He is ever ut the

that created the tragedy of " Marion

getting up plays for IL dolls theatre or
managing II puppet show. The wonders
of Monte Cristo are outdone bv the
marvellous tales that the author improvis
es to console the griefs of his small hear
ers, or lull them to sleep; and he proves
the oneness of art by turning sculptor for
their amusement, and moulding extraur-
binary cats and pigs out of bread crumbs,
with matches for legs. No wonder that
he is the idol of family and friends, and
very popular with his countrymen,- save
