ORG1yIzING FOR DEFEAT

1t becomes palmer and palmer with every
days progress in the Ohio campaign that the
Democratic leaders committed another Diunuer
in their action at Columbus last week.
In allowing General Ewing to force
John G.. Thompson out of the chair
manship Of the Central Committee, or in
permitting Mr.. Thompson to resign oil his own
free will, whichever may be the true version
Of the affair, they have thrown away lhelr
chance Tor well organized and energetic can
vass. Thompson is by no means an IDEAL
statesman, but he is practical politician Oh
great push and persistence, and OF large eX-
pcrirure, VINO knows the politics OF every
county IN the State and the men III every
county who can be relied upon to do efficient
party work, Of either clean or dirty SORT un-
der direction from Columbus His amiable
successor, ex-COHgress Frank Mckinney,
has no special talent for organization, ana no
experience save what he has gained III run
ming for various offices in county and dis
trict strongly Democratic.
The fact that Ewing was not willing to
trust Thompson with the management OF the
canvass, and that Thompson was not willing
IN undertake il because he knew that Ill case
of q defeat Ewing and his friends would
change him with having given away the hSh',
shows that the Democrats begin the contest
m a condition bordering on CONGRATULATIONS
Their campaign will be a splritless march 10
certain defeat. The quiet manner with which
the usually pugnaclous Sergeant-at-Arms mas
submitted to being deposed from his chair
manship indicates that he has no expectation
of Ewing's election. lie will let ambitious
tyros run the Ohio Democracy into the ground
this year, confident that he wall be called on
to extricate it in 1850. He knows that
Ewing can get no Republican votes and Is
obnoxious to the Od-fashioacd Democrats,
who regard him as an upstart intruder IN The
party-a half-bakcd Democrat only, full OF
the windy fermentation of herctical ideas.
As 10 the Greeubackers, Thompson sees as
well rs everybody else that there are hardly
enough Of them left to pass string Of reso-
buttons. -

John King. of Cincinnati, is 'ilirty-nlne years DID,

able one ne is II is not every one OF his calling

honorable fraternity Of the bbophIles. John

he is perfectly sound. lie may rank, too, in his
smaller way with tho benefactors, for having
got together $500 volumes, and read them faith
fully. no doubt ne has presented them
in a body to the Cincinnati Public Library.
Aston or Lenrx could do no morc-indced,
speaking comparatively, with all their laudabie
generosity. they could not do much. They gave

his rough poverty, aud shows quite ~ literary and

the boy Franklin. But Franklin was not a cripple,
and i'm his thirty-ninth year had long passed the
pevvsboy sragc. into which King appears to have
permanently subsidized; those inefficient limbs of
his. doubtless, preventing any qualification of a
higher ambition.
But what we like best in John King is his
magnificent persistence. For having denuded him-
self of those twenty-five hundred hardIy-ac-
Guircd and CAREFUL y-cherished tones, he says
81 will never stop buying books" No doubt he
couldn't, if he tried. His is ruling passion"
which will not abdicate. 1t is in his bones ana his
brains. He loves nothing so well to see the rows
Ieupthening on the shelves. No stately shop can be
80 attractive to him as the dusty book-slall. There
IL no such merchandise for his money. Still he IS
iudicious. Il shall buy fewer books than hereto
foreD ne says, knowing how fast they ac-
eumulate" This is good resolution if
only he can keep 1t, which men buying
in larger way than his have often found
themselves unable to do. Yes: they do accumulate.
Tbs bothered Librarian knows il, and does the
prlyate purchaser living in narrow quarters. All
tbs shelves are soon filed. unless rigid msrtngale
he kept upon acquisition. There is nothing for it
but TO stop buying who to stop is quite impossible.
Here ia an inscuble problem, wrestling with which
NAV lead to lunacy of mild type. But in the
opinion of friends and relatives, it came to that
some time since. The imputatiOn has long
ceased to distress the victim. If his house were

We shall have to do without crackers, etc, or the

ingenuity Of the Boy Patriot He has. indeed some

crackers were sold Oh tho street and IN the shops
Yesterday. and We question whether many Of them
will be in an unexploded state on Saturday. The
runpowder nuisance on the Fourth Of July is so
asagreeabe and destructive that the good sense of
the community ought 20 be able 10 keep it within
bounds and parents might do something TO abato
the annoyance by exercising their influence and
authority against it, Unfortunately, the Fourth is
a day for indulgence of all kinds. Let it DO un-

The California Democrats refer with ire
mendous sarcasm TO " Rutherford Is Hayes
sitting as Executive officer of the Govern
"ment" Probably this is an allusion to the
Presidents ndisputed success in sitting down
on the Confederate Congress.
Senator Rollins, of New-Hampshire, is a
veteran politician whose views upon the
drift of political events are likely always to
be sagaciOus. He expresses himself, in the
talk reported on another page, with consider
able freedom upon the prospect of various
Presidential candidates, without indicating a
preference for any, and declares his de-
liberate conviction that the present harmony
and vigor of the Republican party insure its
success in the contest Of next year.
The sick list Of our Judiciary is given
on another page. -Four Judges are en-
tirely disabled, at least one is able to per
form but a part of his duties, and there are
Others no doubt who are quietly perseverlng
with their work at the expense of their
strength. 1t Is notorious that the labors of
New-York judges are exceptionally heavy,
and it would seem that something might be
done to secure them at least wholesome air to
breathe while they are doing their work.
The community is acquiring by means of the
investigation into the Ludlow Street Jail not
only a great many ideas upon the best way to
keen a prison, but also a vast deal of sub
sidiary information as to the habits Of "Red "
Ieary. The attention of the entire establish
ment seems to have been concentrated on the
doings of this eminent citizen, his favorite
songs, ETC. The Sheriff ought to have prcked
ND his ears when he found that Leary was so
fond of the "Sweet Bye and Bye as wit
ness assures us he was. That was LeaIy S
picturesque way of announcing his intention
to quit.
General SpinOla's steam-heating company
has been incorporated, and the names of the
cOrporators have been published, and 10! the
name of General SpinOla is not among them.
The corporators comprise some of the wealth
lest and most influential citizens of New
York. The average person will wonder just a
little why the General was put forward as
the fgurehead for this scheme. His huge
shirt-colar hid millions of capital from the
public eve. Ii is just possible that that re-
markable garment was hired for the occasion
to screen all this money from the eyes also
of hungry Aldermen.
One of the features Of tO-mOrrOw's demon
STATIONS, it appears will be the professions
and speeches of the Socialists in different
cities throughout the country. Several repre-
eentatiyes of the party, if it can be called so,
set forth their intentions on another page.
They seem to be altogether pacific. All de-
sign of a strike or of anything in the nature
of riots, Is stoutly denied. and the programme
for the day seems TO be made up OF equal
parts of speeches and beer. Neither OF these

Some little woman writes very prettily
to the Detroit Free Press as follows: "Why
is ii that after marriage the wife, as a gener-
al thing, receives 50 little attention fromher
husbands If he would only save halt of
the well turned compliments he poured up
on her before marriage till afterwards, how
much better it would be. If you gentle
men only knew how much kind word or
pretty compliments valued, even after
marriage, you would pay them often, You
would see again the eyes brighten, the
cheek flush, and though many years have
passed, the same sweet girl who gave her
self into your keeping. Notice the bright
knot Of ribbon at her neck. She has put
ii on for you; once you told her it was
her color; she has not forgotten it, if you
have. 1t pleased her then how much more
now. Husbands, il. you only knew how
much influence you have over your wives,
| am sure you would exert it more Little
attentions are so valued. When you come
home at night bring her bunch OF violets,
or any flower IN season; it will please her.
It tells her that, though absent from her all
day, you have been thinking of her. Moth
ers, bring up your boys 50 that they will be
good and attentive husbands. Don't wait
on them too much you are spelling them
for some one If you humor and wait on
them they will expect it from their wives.
