POLITICAL NOTES.
SOIlage.

Sialwart General Beatty finds his proper place in
the Republican ranks. He has taken the stump for
Foster.
Hon1rck B. Wright's Industrial Stagnatlon"
Committee is the most stagnant thing IN the West
just now.
The respectable Massachusetts Democrats should
it out a torpedo-boat and give chase to Buffers
yacht Ii is "A dangerous craft.
The spectacle of John Kelly and his followers
STAYING away from the polls ut the State election
would toe highly entertaining to Republicans.
Isn't il ab1nt time for another plantlve appeal
to Governor SEYMOUR Mr.. Belmont should get his
committee together and make second pilgrimage
to Utica.
John Kelly should try the Yazoo plan of dis
posing of Governor Robinson as a candidate Per-
haps IL worAd not work well in New-York, but it's
mighty effective down in Mississippi.
Ewing calls the Ohio newspapers curriculums Of
public opinion" Some Of the papers want to know
what they have done to be backguarded in this
way. They are as mad as the Dublin fshwoman
when Daniel OCOnnell called her a parallelogram
and a hypoihenuse.
VIM. L. Chandler told reporter in Eureka New,
the other day, that the Republican Presidential
hight would be between Blaine Sherman aud Grant,
with the chances decidedly IN favor OF Blaine.
Chandler's friendship for Blaine evidently stands
the racket OF time.
It's amusing enough to find the Democratic State
newspapers of n day or two ago talking about the
dreadful and deadly quarrel in the Republican
camp They spoke before John Kelly issued his
declaration of war. Henceforth the quarrel at home
will occup, all their attention
When a man fails to manage his own finances
successfully it is astonishing how he comes to
the conclusion that he could run the United States
Treasury better than John Sherman. General
Ewing is a conspicuous example. lie would man
age the Treasury IN the way he managed MS bubble
coal companies.
George c. Gorham's deserton to the party of the
Honorable Bilks does not appear to trouble the
California papers. They cuttingly remark that
GOrham's connection with the Republican party
was always a misfortune, except to himself. There
are people i'm this part Of the country who came to
the same conclusion while he was managing the
affairs OF the Republican Congressional Campaign
Committee year ago.
The political gossips who got up the story of an
alliance between the friends of Mr. Cornell and of
Mr. Pomeroy to give the former the first place on
the ,taCe ticket aud the latter the second, will have
to try their hands az a new combination. Accord
ing 10 The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, which
speaks with authority, Mr.. Pomeroy Will not accept
the Lieuteuaut-G OvernorshIp under any cIrcum-
stances. The second nddle mas evidently no atlrac
ions tor Mr. POmeroy.
General Ewing is accused of doctoring his speeches
for the press after he delivers them. He throws the
newspaper reporters off their guard by offering to
furnish them a copy of his remarks, so to save
them the labor OF taking them down. The CieUeldad
Herald not only makes this charge, but Is unkind
enough to prove It, 1t shows that Ewing left out of
the press copy OF his recent Cleveland speech dec

ase, aud a definition of honest money such he
used to make before the eXigeuces OF his candidacy
caused him to tone down his currency notions
Honest money" SAID Ewing. IN his spoken, but

able. and no more valuable. when the debtor comes

is the genuine flavor of the OHIO idea.
General Beauregard has not been much before the
public OF late save as one Of the managers of the
Louisiana Lottery drawings. audit issomething of
novelty TO find him IN print, mourning over the mis-
take of the South IN not standing by the Crttenden
Resolutions In 1861 and fighting for the Constitu-
ton IN the Union. After the Southern States went
into the rebellion General Beauregard thinks they
made second mistake In not decreeiug gradual
emancipation, and thus securing European sympa-
thy and recognition. A year after the war ended
the Emperor Napoleon pointed out to him this error,
in a private audience at the Tuileres As early as
1868 the Captain OF a French sloop- of-war told

and use its In1uonce in their behalf If they would
