OUR DZPLO SERVICE.

There are now two first class foreign mis-
sions vacant, with the prospect that those
of Spain and Japan will soon be at the dis
posai of Mr.. Hayes. With the governments
of Great Britain and Russia our relations
are exceedingly friendly, yet there are ques-
tons continually arising that demand from
the representative of the United States at
the capitals of those States the highest
craftsmanship. 1t is humiliating fact
and it is time the truth was told-that our
diplomatic service for many years has been
far below the proper mark. 1t has been q
sort of inirmary in which all the decayed
political hacks in the country has been cared
for. Craftsmanship has not been ono of the
requisites of preferment in that branch OF
the service, and its possession has been
the exception rather than the rule.
The consequence has been that our interests
ABROAD have never been properly looked af-
ter, and Americans travelling abroad find
themselves subjected to insults and indigni-
ties that call for the exercise of pardonable
amount of indignation.
1t is about time that the character of our
foreign representatives was raised, and Mr..
Hayes has now a good opportunity of be-
ginning the good work. Instead of confer
ring the distinction and emoluments of the
two vacant missions upon persons as reward
for political services of disreputable char
acter. lot him appoint men of we'll known
craftsmanship, learned in the science cfgov-
ernment, and of unquestioned personal in
tegrity. Questions are about to arise
that will call for such man
at the court of st. James, for the
fisheries dispute is to be brought
up, while the question of the status OF silver
will probably be argued. No mere politician
can serve our government properly as to
these matters, and We have looked in vain
over the list of those who placed Hayes in
tie Presidential chair for the name of a
man qualified for the post. There are plenty
of men in the country, however. and few
of them in the Republican party who would
do this government infinite credit by being
sent abroad. The minister to Great Britain
will have no sinecure if he attends properly
to his duties. He will not have to deal with
tyros in craftsmanship, for the English min
listers ar, thoroughly schooled in statecraft,
are shrewd, far-seeing men who are quick
to nee an advantage and take the
benefit of it. TO send politician of the
prevailing class to negotiate revision of the
treaty of Washington would bs to invite de-
feat in the diplomatic battle SO soon to be
waged, and Mr.. Hayes ought to understand
the fact. Let HIM for once lay aside his
personal predictions, leave the crippled
and diseased politicians out of the question
altogether, and appoint as the representa-
tives of this great country at London and
st. Petersburg men who will inspire respect
and command the regard that is due to the
American name. By doing SO he will do
much to redeem our diplomatic service from
the disrepute into which it has fallen. The
reform must be made, and it cannot be be-
gun too soon.

CONGRESSMAN Young, of Cincinnati, saysa
political campaign cannot be run without
money. True enough, there are expenses
attending an election that are legitimate, but
the pretenss that it takes from five to fifteen
Thousand dollars to elect a Congress man is
absurd, OK ;ept on the superstition that it is
used for the purpose of bribing Or intimi-
dating voters. The legitimate expenses of
such an election should not exceed few
hundred dollars, and all else is employed for
corrupt purpose. This may be regarded
as fact,

The Republican newspapers

The Republican newspapers are easily
pleased when they find comfort in thu Ken.
tucky election. The fact that the Democratic
ticket was certain Of election inspired con-
siderable apathy in the party, and thousands
of voters stayed away from the polls. The
result was slight reduction in theLusual
Democratic majority, and at this the Repub-
licans are shouting themselves hoarse. It is
noteworthy, however, that the returns show
no increase of the Republican vote, and there
ia no great occasion that we can see Tor re-
ioicing.

A CAMP MEETING SCANDAL.

Torment of Ercitrn, mt.
Especial to Cincinnati Enquirer
BATTLE GROUND, Ind.-This delightful
village is located on the ground where sixty
eight years ago the historic battle with the
Indians was fought by General Harrison and
his patriotic soldiers. Aside from this it is
the place where the meeting of the Battle
Ground Camp Meeting association is held
annually This much by way of introduce
ton.
Several days ago dark cloud appeared
upon the horizon, and the quiet and order of
the meeting now in progress here have been
greatly disturbed by its dark shadow. In at
tendance upon the meeting, among others,
was one Mrs. Stockton, from Charlottesville.
She is widow, handsome and vivaclous.
So far as your correspondent can learn, she
is lady, pleasant and we'll bred. She is
member Of the church, in good standing and
occupied quarters in the boarding house of
the association. One of the police,
dashlng young man of good connec-
ton, John Benin, attended to her baggage
and did sundry other favors for the lady.
She was escorted about the grounds by
several of the good brothers in attendance at
the compromising, and also was accompanied
on several occasions by young Benin. The
gossips began to talk. There was music in
the air, and Madame Rumor said terribly
hard things, which at length reached the ears
of the professedly good deacons and they
would stand it no longer.
The effect of the whole affair was in effect
base accusation. The officer, Benin, was
summary bounced and Mrs. Stockton
ordered to leave the grounds. Her indigna-
ton at the gross insult can readily be con-
ceived. She departed when she got ready,
and it is presumed that peace and quiet now
reign in Warsaw" One of the possible re-
suits of this highly interesting matter may
be suit for SANDER. The lady in question
is understood to be respectfully connected,
and will not endure SO disastrous affront
without an effort to refute it.
An interview with young Benin by your
reporter furnishes no ground for criminal
intimacy. It is needless to say that the talk
occasioned by this unhappy report was long
and loud, and that the whole community
vas completely torn up by it.

While examining the State salt lands in

and from Is to 30 feet high, of conicai
form, the slope being about As degrees.
Ineee mounds were shaking bog to their

TREMENDOUS SHIPMENTS OF TORAC-

shipments of tobacco they have ever
