A CORRESPONDENT of the New York
5-Sb9y,1e writing from Ohio sovs.

A CORRESPONDENT oftbe New York
Tribune writing from Ohio says:
" In his intercourse with Republi-
cans in all parts of Ohio, Mr.. Foster
finds that the uppermost thought in
their minds is that the Government
must not be allowed to be captured by
the ex-rebels. They are indignant at
the revival Of the State sovereignty
doctrine, which brought about the Re-
bellion ; and the whole course of legis-
lation since the Democrats got a ma
jority in Congress they regard as an
attempt to reverse the results of the
war and start new era of Southern
domination. When rebel soldiers are
preferred to Union soldiers for office at
the Capitol, when the constitutional
amendments are practically nullified
throughout the South, and when q
struggle carried on by ex Confederate
Brigadiers in Congress tt break down
the Federal Election laws is glorified
in Tammany Hall by Georgia Sen
ator as second only in importance to
the Revolutionary War, these Ohio
Republicans think it high time to re.
assert their belief that the Rebellion
was wicked and unjustifiable, and
their determination that it's leaders
should not accomplish in the Union
what they tried in vain to accomplish
out of it."

Mr.. EDITOR: Although little has
been said about this school. neverthe-
less 1t has been carried on efficiently,
under the excellent management OF

THE following is from the Memphis
appeal of the 10Th inst:
"a gentleman from East Tennessee
gives doleful account of the condi-
tion of hundreds of Memphians who
are refugees in the mountains and val.
leys of that section of the State. The
little towns and valleys are crowded :
every house is filled the fare is not
very good for the price charged ::
chickens, eggs and vegetables are very
scarce, so is milk and butter. The
Memphians will soon eat out that sec-
ton, because the people have but
little. The Memphians are dissatisfied
and would gladly return by hundreds
were they assured that they would be
safe for the rest of the summer. AS ii
is, hundreds will return next week"
This is a slander, and the editor oi
the appeal must have been imposed
upon. There may be isolated cases
where Memphis refugees have Jared as
here intimated, but they must be few
and far between. 1t is true that the
long continued drought has interfered
with our usual supply Of vegetables,
and the grass has been cut down until
grazing for cattle is short and our sup
ply Of milk and butter has been re-
duced, but East Tennessee has now
and will have in the next twelve
months, if we have rain in q week,
surplus enough to keep the whole city
OF Memphis in bread and meat for q
year. We are sure that there are
scores of Memphians in this section
VINO will stand ready to contradict the
appeals report.

New YORK, July 16.-In the Cox
trial case, the prosecution was closed
last night and the defense will prob
ably finish to-day with the testi-

that Mrs. Hull died during the post
mortem examination and not by the
hands of the prisoner. DR.. Wander
meyde, in reply to hypothetical
question, said the woman found as
Mrs. Hull was found might not
be dead, even though cold and
rigid, and that if dead it would be
impossible to determine the direct
cause of the death.

HARRISBURG, July 16.-The
Democratic State Convention met
and organized here to-day. The
Opera House was about half filled
with delegates. Resolutions were
adopted favoring the subordination
of military and civil authorities in
all things, denying the right of the
Federal Government to maintain
the army to be used for political
purposes, demanding free ballots,
asserting the fraudulent nature of
Hayes election and denouncing
his abuse of the veto power as an
insult and menace to the country.

of gold and silver, and of paper
convertible into coin. The plat
form also opposes all subsidies and
appropriations by the general gov
ernment for other purposes than the
public service; promises protection
and support to labor, and charges
the bankrupt condition of the State
finances to the mismanagement of
the Republican party. D. O. Barr,
of Allegheny, was nominated for
State Treasurer by acclamation,
and the convention adjourned sine
