The Election In Ohis.
CINCINNATI, April 9.-Out of
twenty seven towns in Ohio from
which returns have been received,
the Republicans carried seventeen,
the Democrats seven, and the Inde,
pendents three. At Dayton the Re-
publicans elect the city ticket with
the exception of Justice and Con-
stable. They also have q majority
of the Council. which, heretofore,
has been Democratic. At Spring
field a very heavy vote was cast
The Mayor. elect was the can
didate Of a computation of
prohibitionists and Murphyites.
At Chillicothe the d 4mucrats elect
their Mayor by 800 majority. AT
GAINESVILLE the Republicans gain
five Councilmen and the Democrats
elect the Mayor. At Hamilton the
Republicans elect the Mayor. In
this city, with one ward lacking,
the Republicans elect all except
Police Judge by majoritles of 300 to
LOO Tho ward lacking gave q
Republican majority of $50 at the
last municipal election. 1t is gen
orally conceded on all sides that
local and personal considerations
were lost sight of, national ques-
tions being the matter at issue. The
vote polled was the largest of any
Spring election in Cincinnati.
TOLEDO. o., April 9.-The sue
cess of the Nationalists In the city
election yesterday as indicated
by partial returns last night, is
fully confirmed by official returns
to-day. Romlis, for Mayor, has $50
plurality over Jones (Dem. aud 7S9
over Baumgarden (Rep.)
COLUMBUS, o., April 9.-Full
official figures prove the election of
a full city Republican ticket yes
terday. Collins's majority for
Mayor is 1,76S. This result cannot
be claimed as o partisan victory,
inasmuch as many leading Demo
Gratis worked openly for the Repub.
lican nominees. 1t is really u vic
tory of citizens and property
owners over the lawless element,
which made determined effort to
obtain control Of the city. The
will have four ma
jority in the Common Council.
CLEVELAND, April 9.-The Re-
publicans elected their entire city
ticket, with the exception of Po-
lice Judge.
Fhs Election Ia Michigan.
DETROIT, April 9.-Almost COM
plete returns from twenty of the
most populous counties in the
State have been received, which
give Campbell, Republican,, for
Justice Of the Supreme Court a
majority OF about twenty-five hum
dren over Shipman, Democrat and
Grosvenor and
Republicans, for Univer-
sity Regents, are probably elected
by small majorities. The vote
the State has been a
light one, and 1t is not probable
that the returns from the counties
yet to hear from will materially
alter the situation.

As at present things stand in France
the Prince was an important factor in
the politics of the country. If France
ever had any natural strength she has it
now as Republic She has worked
through more grieVous vicissitudes to
reach her present sublime position than
any other nation ever did The seven
years struggle OF the American States
was as triAe compared with what
France has paid and suffered for her Re
publicanism. Therefore the death Of
this man or that man or the other, who
may be claimed by small body OF en-
thusiastic friends as the representative of
dynasty, OR as being, like Chambord,
born in the purple, has no disturb
ing effect upon the course of
national affairs. France mourns the
cruel butehery of an estima lie young
man who was put forward as the repre-
sentative of her glory and her shame.
But the country has outlived or out
grown the Idees Napoleonne." 1t will
never FORGET the era when under the
imperial sway of the First Napoleon all
Europe lay trembling at her feet. But
there was nothing in the history of the
Second Empire to create national enthu'
siasm. and its disastrous end covered the
French people with shame and mortiica
ton as with pail. 1t paid an enormou,
price, in human life and pecuniary loss
for the follies and crimes of Imperialism
and it is not to be conceived that an in
telligent and spirited people would evel
again submit their destinies to either :
Bourbon or a Bonaparte. The linea
representatives of these old, suppressed
dynasties alag superfuous on the stage.

WHO HAS THE WORST OF IT.

When a tall, staIwart man of six feet
nine or less undertakes to chastise a
small, ragged and apparently feeble
urchin, and gets his heels knocked out
from under him and catches IA bad fall,
the sympathy is all on the side Of the lit
tie ragged boy. The little ragged boy
must be a very helpless scapegrace and
altogether unworthy of the recognition
of society if he is not at once exalted
into the sphere of heroism.
King Cetewayo, who six months ago
was an unrccognized quantity in the af-
fairs of nations-partly on account of his
remoteness from any telegraphic station
or newspaper Office, and partly from his
love of peace and roast missionary, has
now become quite respectable ruler
over his people.
After the fearful punishment he has
inflicted upon Sir Bartle Frere's com
mand, in the partial annihilation of thu
Twenty-fourth British Regiment, ano
the more recent little episode that ha'
deprived French Imperialists of theil
header, it is now announced that Sir Gar
net Wolseley presents conditions of peace
that contrasts curiously with the forme
instructions given to the British officer
by the home authorities. There is nov
no demand for unconditional surrender
There is now no demand for the disband

IIle Wears Poodle.

I have lust received letter from the
Vicar of earn, which relates an instance
of mental reflection on the part of a
POODLE dog that has the merit of admitting
neither OF mal-ob,crvatiOn nor uncon-
scious OK lrgcratioD. The Wears friend
II Canon whose name | have at present
no express permission to pubish-wcnt
to visit cousin, who owned the poodle
dog. Twill conclude by telling the rest
Of thc story in my correspondents own
words: the poodle, whose name is Mori,
went into the dining-room with them,
and kept quietly under the table till the
end of lunch, when he begged for little
food, and he was given small shred OF
beef. They returned to the drawing
room, while the servant cleared away,
and the beef WAS taken into the larder.
The dog did not think he had had his fair
share. X X :; Now he had been taught to
stand on his hind legs, put his paw on a
lady's waist, and hand her into the dining
room. He adopted the same tactics
with my friend the Canon, \ = 4 but
the sagacious dog, instead of steering
for the dining room, led him in the di
rection of the larder, along the passage
down steps, &c, and did not halt unit
he brought him to the larder, and close
to the shelf where the beef had beer
put" After giving him piece of beef
The Canon went up stairs, and refuset
again to be led down as before. "Find
ing he could not prevail on the visitor tt
make a second excursion to the larder
he went out into the hall, took in hi
teeth Canon-'s hat from off the hal
table, and carried it under the shelf il
the larder, where the coveted beef la.
out OF his reach. There he was fount
with the hat, waiting for its owner, AM
expecting another savory bit when h
should come for his hat"

ing or disarming of the Zulu army
King Cetewayo is 10 be. allowed to
keep up an independent army, and he
is to be recognized as an independent
potentate, and all that Great Britain
now asks of him is that he should allow
a British Resident to live somewhere on
the outskirts of his royal court, to see
that British interests do not suffer from
his foreign. relations. This isohimpIy an
attempt to establish protettorate, and
in the end British cunning and British
gold will work out with the Zulu native
substantial conquest which British
armies have failed to win.
The alb rtemcnt from the terms de-
manded by Great Britain in December
last is signifca of the fact that the
ENGLISH Government, stalwart as it Is,
has met in the half-civilized Zulus a
power that compels recognition OF nat
ural rights, more effective and decisive
than it ever met in the East Indies.
Sir Garnet WoIseley is instructed to
even waive the territorial question, and
not to insist upon the former claim of
fixing the boundaries of Cape Colony or
Natal in any manner that may be consid-
cred Objectionable by the Zulu Chief,
This concession is not only an acknowl-
edgment that King Cetewayo has given
John Bull the hot end of the poker, but
that he still holds the poker and has the
ability to keep it red hot for his enemies.
