Nurat Halstcad's Views on the
Grant leAnnl

at seems to me that the very apprehension
you express lies at the bottom Of the Grant
movement. People say that the Confederate
Democracy in Congress would not dare count
Grant out if he should be elected
That is a mistake. Grant would be no
more obstacle than John Smith. The Grant
enthusiasm does well as matter of personal
compliment to great soldier returning from
abroad. where he has been highly hon0red
but when the republicans get down seriously
to the business of selecting a candidate they
will hesitate about Offering the country no
other escape from Confederate rule than
third term of Grant, with the promise OF
fourth. and so on down the broad road the
republicans have travelled. To nominate
Grant would be to take the ridiculc off the
democratic charge of threatened change in
our form of government and make 1t a
momentous matter. The second sober thought
will come in good time, and the thing that now
seems certain will be found impossible. The
common sense of the country will be against
the third term, with all it implies The re-
publican leaders cannot afford to abdicate
now and forever in favor of Grant. Not one
of them, with possibly the exception OF Conk-
ling. would have the dignity of a ward poll
tician if he should again be President. They
would be submerged, and never emerge from
the flood, and Blaine would not be bigger and
better than a fy on bulls horn, and he is n
man of great stature as he stands. The re-
publican party would be ripped up bya third
term nomination. 1t is the one way To do the
party to death. Besides, Grant would be
counted out the same as any other man. He
is only simple citizen. He would have to
submit to the Congress of the United States,
now the creature ola Confederate Committee
and this very degradation can be traced to
Grants administration. SILL, he is expected
to serve as a scarecrow to overpower the reb-
els by moral and physical fright, This Is
neither republicanism nor manliness. 1t is
childishness and mischievous. Grants re-
ception is all right, and is mo more than he
deserves. | am glad to see him get his nil
of glory; but it don't follow that the
country must be tied up in a rag and present
ed to him as a little testimonial of our afiec-
tomato helplessness. "-Smatiey IN the T'tb.

MONEY RAPIDLY MADE.

Small and large investments from S25 to
$4,000, in the combinations of Messrs. Law
renee Co., pay large profits. This new and
successful system unites thousands of orders
from customers into one immense capital, and
is managed with the best skill and expert
ence in the stock market. Profits are shared
pro rata by customers every month. Share
holders thus obtain all the advantages of
large capitalists. Thousands are rapidly max
ing money, and many have acquired hand
some fortunes by this safe and legitimate
method, which has been among the most sue
cessful of the movements of the Stock Ex-
change. S25 will make Sl25, or per cent,

Gen. Garabaldi has returned to his home

has cabbage garden on the island which he
cherishes very fondly but he can't work it as
formerly, being fiat on his back half the time
through rheumatism, and unable even to hop
about on crutchcs.
Mr.. Whittier's own statement of the origin
of his poem of ''Maud Muller" is quoted by a
correspondent of the Springfield Republican.
He was driving with his sister through York,
Me-, and stopped at harvest field to inquire
the way. A young girl raking hay near the
stone wall stopped to answer their inquiries.
Whittier noticed as she talked that she bash
fully raked the hay around and over her bare
feet, and she was fresh and fair The little
incident left its impression and he wrote out
the poem that very evening. 'But if had
had any idea, he said, that the plaguey little
thing would have been so liked | should have
taken more pains with it," TO the inquiry
as to the title, Maud Muller, he said it was
suggested to him and was not selection. 1t
came as the poem came But he gives it the
short German pronunciation as Meuler, not
the broad Yankee Muller.

New England's Manufacturing
Supremacy.

Shortly after the close of the war it was
contended that in the reconstruction of the
States the manufacture of leading articles
would seek the point nearest that of poduc-
ton Ample time has been allowed to prove
the correctness of this opinion, but it has not
been verified
New England the home and birthplace of
American manufactures is to-day in better
condition to compete with the other States
than she was at any time previous to or fol-
lowing the war. 1t is in the order Of things
that the producer should have distinct inter
est from the manufacturer, otherwise the
whole system of interchange would be over
turned. England maintains what is left of
her supremacy to-day because she brings
home the raw material from her distant, out
living possessions to give employment to her
operatives. SO with New England. The
South is rich in its water power, lying close
bv its cotton, rice and sugar fields. The
Middle States are equally rich in their miner
al resources and so is the West in its vast
lumber fields: and yet we can import into
New England all this raw material, paying
freight both ways, and furnish at the very
homes of the producers the manufactured
article at price that defies competition.
While one section of the country is the
natural home of the miner, another of the
planter. and third OF the agriculturaist,
New England has been and remains the natu
raj home of the mechanic. and here skilled
labor will always seek employment in prefer
cnce to other places. When people talk
about the decadence of New England, be-
cause few thousand acres Of barren soil
have been abandoned, they talk without the
book. New England's manufacturing centres
are growing more populous and prosperous
every year Trareiier.

Plumed Knight Of Maine.

Especial to the Cincinnati Commercial.
.POMEROE, o., OCTOBER 5.--The Blaine
meeting, held in beautiful grove at Middle
port yesterday afternoon, after but a few
days notice, was one of the largest political
gatherings ever held in Meigs County. 1t
was second in size (if TO any only to the
immense Foster meeting on the 9TH of Sep
tember, for which adequate preparations had
been made. The Senator pronounces it the
largest meeting he has yet seen in Ohio, with
the single exception of that at Canton. 1t is
variously estimated at from 5000 to 10000.
The streets and speakers stand were beau
tifhlly decorated with evergreen arches, ban
ners, flowers and patriotic notices, and
among the latter the following was conspicu-

We will bury Rice and Ewing

''CaIifornis sends us greeting,
Let Ohio not complain,

We will hoist the name of Blaine"
The meeting was presided over by the Hon.
V. b. Horton, of this city, and for an hour
and half before the arrival of the Senator,
Gen. c. II. Grosvenor, of Athens, entertained
the vast audience With one of his best speech
es, dealing directly with the practical issues
Of the campaign.
The Plumed knight from Maine, upon be-
ing introduced by the Chairman in a few well
chosen and complimentary phrases, was re-
ceived with wild enthusiasm, and for over
two hours held the audience at his will, while
he went through the sophistres, the false
teaching and unenviable record of the demo-
cratic party for the past few years, and ex-
posed its schemes and designs for the future
He contrasted the results achieved by the
great republican party and that Of its oppo-
nents with telling effect.
Last night an immense meeting was adj
dressed from the Courthouse steps by the
Buckeye Blacksmith and others, after which
Senator Blaine was serenaded at the resi-
dence of Hon. V. Ii. Horton, and in response
to loud calls appeared upon the veranda and
made short speech, which greatly pleased
the large crowd which had assembled. Sena-

Ohio Election.

The election in Ohio takes place to-day.
Both parties express confidence Of carry
ing the State The republicans claim that
thew will elect their candidate for Gov
ernor by some 10000 majority. The
average republican vote for the last ten
State elections has been 269, 0j9; the
average democratic vote, 263.710. From
the most careful estimates just made by
those who understand the business, it is
calculated almost to certainty, that the
republican vote to-day will be 10000 i'll
excess of this average, while the demo-
cratic vote will be from 10000 to 10000
in excess. This will give a republican
majority of something like 10000.
But while the election of republican
governor is thus assured the success of the
Legislative ticket is not so certain; and in
Ohio just now, apart from the national
effect of the election of Governor, the
Legislative ticket is by far the most inn
portant. The democratic majority which
has prevailed for some time in the legis-
lature has made much mischief by its
measures.
Through its measures this infamous ma
jority has been able to intrench itself in
such manner that the will of the people
cannot be brought to bear on it for its
overthrow so completely as II pom the cleo
ton for Governor. Still the republicans
have strong hopes as the campaign draws
to a close Of carrying the Legislature by
reason Of several very close districts,
where excellent personal work has been
done oflate. The Senate consists of 81
members, the House of III; and the dem
ocratic majority of the past session rests
on very small majorties in only three or
four districts. In one of these close dis
tricts lives Foster. the republican candi
date, and his personal popularity Is such
that it can be relied upon to overcome the
democratic majority against him by
large vote. In the other districts local
issues are helping the republicans so
strongly that they are confidently ex-
pected to go against the democrats.
This will give small major
ity in the Legislature, and complete
republican triumph which otherwise
might be barren Of results save, as before
stated, for national effect. Upon the sue
cessor the defeat of the Legislative ticket
depends the election of a United States
Senator to succeed Thurman, as well as
the electoral vote in the Presidential con-
test next year.
We hope to have good news tomorrow
morning of the election. We certainly
shall unless the reports sent out are in En-
ror.
State election in Iowa takes place to- day.
Three tickets are in the field, republican,
greenback and democratic. There ought
to be no doubt of republican victory, in
