NEW YORK AND OHIO.

The more prominent men in both
the great political parties are looking
forward with much interest to the
Presidential election of the coming
year and are shaping their course
with a view to affect the result of
that election. 1t is a fact almost uni
versally recognized that the result of
the State elections of 1879 in New
York and Ohio must necessarily be-
come very important factor in de-
termining the issue of the Presiden-
tial contest of 1880, and hence no ad-
vantage to be attained by either party
in those States will be overlooked if
ordinary political sagacity is observed;
the campaign in the Empire and Buck
eye States in 1879 will be of national
interest and closely watched by think
ing men in every State in the Union.
In New York the internal dissensions
of the Democratic party are of seri-
Gus nature, the different factions en-
pertaining a greater aversion for each
ether than for their common enemy
the Republican party; they are quar-
reIing over Tilden and other causes of
difference to such an extent as to
arouse very bitter feeling among
themselves, and though a compromise
in name may be effected present APP
pearances do not foretell the existence
of that enthusiasm which tends to lu-
bricate the machinery of a political
party while running through a cam
paign. On the other hand the Repub-
Leans of that State have not been
more firmly united during the past
twenty years than at present; Hon.
Hamilton Fish is becoming prominent
as a Republican candidate fol Guber-
natorial honors, ana his nomination is
not al Ill Improbable; his nomination
would doubtless hold the Republican
party as unit and inspire an enthu-
siasm which would insure sweeping
victory for TIE Republicans of that
State. The outlook in New York Is
certainly encouraging for Republi-
cans.
In Ohio the prospects are equally
encouraging and the Republicans
there are united and hopeful. The
friends OF Tilden silently pray for Re-
publican success as the most effectual
means of disposing of very formid-
able opponent of that gentleman in
his Presidential aspirations: for, if
Ohio is carried by the Republicans in
| 1879 Mr.. Thurman will not interfere
with Tilden's programme for the year
/ following. and this fact cannot fail to
operate 10 the disadvantage of the
Democratic party OF that State in the
coming campaign. Secretary Sher-
man has been mentioned as . possible
candidate for Governor, but President
Hayes has manifested such an earnest
/ desire to retain that gentleman in his
/ Cabinet that he will doubtless remain
! where he is: Gen. Garfield has also
been mentioned in this connection.
/ but he viii probably remain in the
House where he has become proBli-
nent as a Republican leader, and Taft.
I Foster Or Young will probably be Sc
i .eetea by the Republicans rs their
4 standaFss-bearer. either of when would
4 command the enthusiastic support of
the entire party.

sore

AN exchange thus pointedly defines
the issue of the future, an issue which
has more than once periled the very
existence of our Republic:
''The new phase of the old State
rights contest begins, as it has usually
begun-as the sharpest struggle it ev-
er precipitated upon the country be-
gan--in extravagant pretensions on
the part of the States and in defiant
attacks Of the local powers upon the
central government. The Democratic
party, whose whole history is the rec
ord of attempts to destroy the federal
system by destroying the power of the
central government and adding to the
proper local functions of the State
those of a purely national character,
has signaliZed its return to power by
an attempt to revise the statutes IN
the interest of State rights. The leg
islation which has made all the trouble
ia this extra session is involved with
a carefully devised State rights
scheme. The Democrats are
shaping their policy so as to place
themselves and the Republicans be-
fore the country III sharp antagonism
on this question aud to make it the
central point in the next campaign.
The latter can afford to accept the is
sue boldly and 90 before the people as
champions, in the larger sense, of the
national power against the attacks of
| local disorganiZers; and, in more
immediate limited meaning, of the
purity of national elections against
partisan zeal which would sacrifice
the ballot-box to mob violence to carry
a selfish point. This new phase of the
ancient State rights question is to be
| the issue of the future, and it is time
| to recognize it.
