The Ohio Legislature has again been wrest-
ling with a color-line question. Indeed, the
negro question seems to come up oftener In
that State than Ia the South ITSELF The Ques-
ton was whether the State should insist
upon joint schools for blacks and whites, or
leave the matter to the country school boards,
as at present. There has been some diversity
OF practice In this respect in the various ooun-
ties. In . large majority Of them the school
boards have insisted on separate schools for
the two races. 1t Is noticeable fact that the
Republican districts were the most earnest
and obstinate in clinging to the old system of
separate schools, while several Democratic
counties Stark. for instance, one of the most
reilably Democratic counties in the State
educate black and white together from mo-
nVes OF economy. This separate school ques-
.son was sprung on the Legislature. the other
Wy. ~ the Republicans, who hoped to manu-
y tss'sule some capital out OF 1t. Although

| la the lecture and dissecting rooms, or The
rare practical advantages afforded by The
Charity Hospital enjoyed. In this depart.
ment, last year, there were no less than 25l
matricnlates, and these from all portions u
the South. In the law department. there
were sixteen graduates.
In regard to the academic department.
while the reasons for sustaining IT are not SO
fragrant, still there Is great deal to be said
In favor Of 1t. Asa matter OF policy 1t is best
that boys should be educated at home, In the
communities where they are expected to live.
At home-schools they form friendships and
associations among young men from all por.
tions Of the State, with whom they are likely
to come In contact In the active pursuits 81
life, and which are likely to be advantageous
to them in after llfe And, again, these
schools offer an opportunity to many poor
but ambitious boy, of which he could not
avail himself away from home, because Of
the greater expense he must necessarily
incur.
These are the reasons!in favor Of maintain
Ing this institution, and we present them
strongly because we deem them worthy OF
consideration, and do not think that this
grave matter should be passed upon lightly
or llnadvisedly.
Upon the other hand there are arguments
Of great weight First, there are the al
ways controlling considerations OF public
economy and equal Justice. as between
the taxpayer and the benefiolaries OF his en-
forced contributions. II Is very just propo-
sition that the States first duty ID to supply
to all her people the opportunity Of acquiring
the first rudlments Of education--the three
"Reedln'. 'Ritin' and 'Rethmetic" III
she cannot do tflis-if she cannot, in short,
support her common sehools--she Ia certain
ly In no condition. to offer extraordinary adj
vantages to q privileged few.
This ID all very substantial truth, yet
the State, by accepting the bounty Of the
Federal government In the donation OF lands
for agricultural and mechanical schools, has
obligated herself to supply some educational
facilities beyond those Of the common schools,
and, with proper economy, It may be found
possible to continue all that now exist. We
should very much regret to see SO old an In
stitution az our State University, and one
whose advantages are 50 great and 30 mani
fest, done away with hastily and inconsid-
erately. We ask, therefore, full and candid
discussion OF both sides Of the question. It
may be as well to retain the provisions Of the
present constitution. Or, at least, to leave the
matter untouched for future Legislatures to
regulate, as exigency or opportunity may APP
pear to demand, with power to distribute, Us
their judgment may dictate, the proportion
OF the poll tax now given to this institution.

American hogs are likely to fare the same
fate as American cattle. The English author
lilies at London, the other day, discovered a
serious form Of typhoid fever among two
large consignments OF hogs by the steamers
Minnesota and Ltnhope. 1t il likely that this
discovery will persuade the English Privy
Council to adopt somewhat the same meas
ures as they did In reference to American inn
ported cattle. American hogs will be killed,
then examined to discover If they are suffer
ing from this disease or not. The carcasses
of the diseased hogs will then be destroyed
and the healthy ones forwarded to the mar.

New York opened to the public, last Mon
day, number of free salt baths throughout
the city, where, without leaving Manhattan
island, one can enjoy all the pleasures OF the
seaside. It Is q luxury that few rich people
Eof other cities enjoy, but which will now be
open to all the poor Of New York. The enter
prise is one eminently to be encouraged. New
York Is probably the only city not directly on
the sea which enjoys this advantage. The
experiment OF sea baths has been tried ct
London, but met there with very little sue

Since 1879. the government has spent the
large SUM of $206,965 for the purpose Of hav-
ing deputy marshals at the polls during the
Congressional election In New York city.
The result Of this heavy expenditure was the
arrest Of about six hundred voters, charged
with having violated the election laws. Not
. single one OF these men arrested were con
victed. The government, Id other words, has
spent nearly q quarter OF a million dollars to
catch illegal voters on Manhattan. and has
not caught one.

Z lii Grants days the Republican papers
used to publish In capital letters how much
the national debt had been reduced during the
previous month, and claim great credit to
the party for having paid out the money that
the people had raised. They do this no
longer, and for good reasons. The national
debt ID now steadily increasing each month.
The report for May shows an increase Of

rapid growth to be pleasant.

II. W. Morrow the owner and pub
Usher of the advertiser" and also
the Evening Programme" arranged
with Charles Scheu to work as a COM
positor on the papers for which he was
to receive proportion of the profits
accruing therefrom. All went well ,and
the paper reached the firm basis Of
success, when Mr.. Morrow went to the
Dover Fair to exhibit the improved
spring bed.
On Thursday scheu collected all the
amounts due the firm that he could,
also obtained new suit of clothes on
a running advertisement, hat on
another, and on Thursday evening
skipped for parts unknown.
To make matters worse Mr.. Morrow
had given him some receipts for rent
such of his Morrow's, tenants as might
be ready to pay promptly on the 25th
of the month. The festive Charles
realized upon these also, swelling the
amount still larger.
Mr.. Morrow was telegraphed for yes
terday and reached here by the early
train this morning, diploma in hand for
the best spring bed, but somewhat
chagrined on finding how matters had
been managed" Nevertheless he has
engaged another equally good hand,
andthe Programme" will be issued for
the Minstrel performance this evening,
and the Advertiser" will go on as

| New York, Sept. 26.-Rowell was
taken seriously i'll this morning, and
was for some time in commissions. 1t
was reported that he had been poisoned
but this seems to be unfounded. While
be was off Merritt pushed on, aud cut

appeared, and, although evidently
weak, walked as fast as he could, and
took short rests. Tonight there are
fully ten thousand people in the build
ing, and vast ooncourse outside. Wes-
ton is doing better, but still cuts up
capers, and is cheered and Missed by
turns.
Weston and the cclored boy caused
quite an excitement. Hart was watch
ing Weston, and logged him around,
mile after mile, in Rowell' fashion.
Weston tried to shake him, and rever-
sed often with that object in view; but
Hart also reversed, and still stuck to
him. They knocked up against each
[other once reversing, and the Judges
were appealed TO by Weston, but no
foul was allowed. The crowd applaud
ed with vigor, and for over bali an
hour the building fairly shook with
the roars of applause. It was the ex-
citement Of the evening.
At l.30 A. M. Merritt, Rowell and
Hazel were walking at rapid pace in
