THE EASTERN SITUATION.

1t appears that in Ohio the tendency is
more and more toward a decisive victory for
the Republicans The battle is being fought
by all parties with great earnestness, and as
the New York Tribune says, this always indl-
Gates the success of the Republican ticket.
1t is only when the campaign is dull that the
alertness of the Democrats is of genuine avail.
That party is never asleep, and never too
intelligent" to act as unit for the sake of
success. 1t is evident that the Republicans,
even of the state of Ohio are growing weary
of spending their time in refuting baseless
lies, and pleading not guilty to the trumped
up charges that constitute the stock in trade
of their opponents They have concluded
that absolute defeat is better than such victo-
ries as add nothing to the morale of the party.
The consequence is that they have concluded
to make this campaign decisive, if possible, one
way or another 1t is growing evident that
the various elements of opposition such as
the Nationals, Democrats and Greenbackers,
will be obliged to join forces at the polls if
they expect try to beat the Republican
Gubernatorial candidate, Foster.
The situation among the Democrats is in
teresting. 1t is inrimated that Tilden will
not diminish his barl of money for General
Ewings benefit, preferring to see Thurman
returned to the Senate, and thus Kill off two
pretentious aspirants to the Democratic Presi-
Dental nomination in 1SS0-Thurman and
Ewing If he succeeds in making Ohio take
a back seat in Democratic management he
will give New York a corresponding promi-
hence and himself very positive leverage in
the aftermoves All this works i'll favor
of the Republican State ticket and
really adds a heavy burden to that
Democratic wing which has tired of the
endless changes that have been rung to
the theme of our great Defraudedn Uncle
Sammy has verify mortgage on the Demo
cratic party, and the campai m i'll Ohio will
prove it beyond question. 1t will be shown
that Tilden can do better without the Demo-
cratic party. than can that party without
Tilden.

AT HOME FROM CHURCH.

The Elacs lift in generous bloom
Their plumes of dear old fashioned fow
ers;
Their fragrance fills the still old house,
Where left alone | count the hours.
High in the apple trees the bees
Are humming, busy in the sun
An idle robin cries for rain
But once or twice, and then is done.
The Sunday morning quiet holds
In heavy slumber all the street,
While from the church, just out of sight
Behind the eims. comes slow and sweet
The organs drone, the voices faint
That sing the quaint, long meter hymn
I somehow feel myself shut out
From some mysterious temple, dim
And beautiful with blue and red
And golden lights from windows high,
Where angels in the shadows stand,
And earth seems very near the sky.
The day dream fades-and so try
Again to catch the tune that brings
No thought of temple nor of priest,
But only of one voice that sings.

they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health. -..
AYERS PILLS have been. known for
more than quarter of century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are SO composed that obStruc-
lions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have bafled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not infamed.s
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
