The Senate on EX-President
Davis.

In the Senate Of the United States
li"aro OF Massachusetts in giving vent
to his pent up and small soulel
hatred against Ex-Prcsilent Davis
has actually paid him an exalted
Though unintenticnal compliment.
In advocating his amendment to the
Pension bill for Mexican veterans t,
exclude Jefferson Davis from its pro-
visions, and in abiding to his leader
ship of the Southern C~'onfedcrscv.
he says, that gentleman Davis had
never given utterancc to IN cxprcs-
sion of regret for such attack. nor
had lie followed the example Of SO
many Of his associates by asking Con.
gress TO remove his political disabiIi
ties. lie spurncd the clcmcncy Of
the Republic today
This IS What ranklcs in the breasts
OF such me- as IIoar who either have
not The innate sense OF depreciation
Tor the true, or feel the rcproach
"ilcn The presence Of such an cxa'tel
type OF human character ALWAYS OK
erts. Their bile is excited because Mr.
DAVIS does not conceive that he ha,
done any thing for which 10 ask
p rdon, and therefore wont do it.
lie Ac'rs u"a Carrier NAV saw that.
there are comparatively few men in
the South who have any serious lik-
ING for Mr.. Davis" but we c:tccn
lis independence, his consistency. his
calm consciousness o.: rectitu le and
his defiant and exalted attitude in
challenging the United States to hi,
trial as worthy Of admiration.
ihls Is not disloyulty bl.
principle. Whatever nay b.
MIR. Davis faults Of judgment in tho
estimation of many, his purcand lofty
character is grandly illustrated in his
life and dccd:.
Mr.. Hoar says, che spurns tho
c'm'ncY of the Republic" So he
does. lie asks no clenlcn,y, but tho
Justice Of Il trial which the Eeplblic
distrus!fu! Of It's cau.e, fails to
give.
20 far as n pension is concerned
Mr.. Davis wants none, having already
written a letter urging the passage of
the pension bill with his name cx-
cluded .iorcycr.
If misfortune has caused the deser-
ton of friends. it brings no crouchiny
of his proud spirit.
Mr.. lloar knew all this full we'll;
and his advocacy Of the amendment
to exclude from the pension list the
name Of Mr.. Davis, who had moisten-
ed the soil Of Mexico with his blood

TIrE OEHuO ELECTION.

n. Y. Sun: In Ohio onTuesday next there
will be an election for Governor and other
State officers, and for a Legislature that will
choose a successor of fSenatorThurman, whose
term expires in March, 1881. The contest
has been waged with uncommon vigor on
all sides. Mr.. Foster, theRepublican candi-
date for Governor, is the special friend of
John Sherman. 1t was thorugh his inilu-
ence that Foster beat Judge Taft in the
nominating Convention by handful of
votes. Mr.. Sherman and Mr.. Carl Shurtz,
not to name the fraudulent President him
self, have put their Interpretation upon the
civil service orders OF the latter by taking
the stump for Foster.
But the life Of the canvass on the Repub-
lican side has been Brother Blaine. Packing
his little Maine boom in carpet bag he en-
tered the field some two weeks ago, where
he has since been displaying before the pco-
pie of Ohio the wide difference between his
rousing speeches and the drowsy addresses
of Sherman. If Blaine is not more success
ful in Ohio than Sherman was in Maine,
Foster will rue the day that he visited the
Buckeye State.
The Democratic candidate for Governor is
Gen. Thomas Ewing, the son of Thomas Ew-
ing, who was distinguished Senator IN
Congress in the days of Clay, Webster, Tom
Benton, and Silas Wright. When the re-
bellion broke out the younger Ewing was
Chief Justice of Kansas. In 1862 he resign
ed from the bench and entered the army,
where he did good service, rising from the
rank of Colonel of volunteers to that of Ma.
jor-General by brevet His associate on the
ticket for Lieutenant Governor is Gen. Rice.
lie has but one leg, the other having been
shot away in battle for the preservation oi
the Union.
The campaign on the Democratic side ha:
been lively. Ewing and Rice have been on
the stump all the time, while Thurman
Hendricks, and other prominent orators have
taken a hand in the contest.
Ohio is a rather close State, though usual
ly inclining toward the Republicans. TIL,
Democrats, however, have been able to keeT
Mr.. Thurman in the Senate for two terms
and they now have Mr.. Pcndleton ther,
with him. In 1876, Hayes got majority
OF 1916 over Tilden. But DR.. Peter Cooper
; was then running as the Grecnback candi
, date,aud the Prohibitionists also had Presi
dental nominee, and the majority of Hayes
over all was only 2,747. In 1877, Bishop
Democrat, got plurality of 1000 for Gov
ernor over West, Republican. But thu
Greenbackeys, Prohibitionists, and Working
men east $4,000 votes, thus placing Bishop
in minority of nearly 10000. In 1873
Barnes, the Republican candidate for Secre
tary of State, obtained a plurality of 900
over his Democratic opponent, but the out
side candidates got $4,000 votes, thus put
, ting the Republicans in minority of near
, ly 10000
; In the present contest the Republicans an,
! the Democrats both claim that they will carr,
their State ticket. The Republicans boas
l rather the louder and more confidently. Tn
4 Democrats hope at all events to save tn
, Legislature.

-THE HANLAN-COUETNEY RACE. - On
Friday, the 10th OF October great aquatic
contest will take place at Lake Chatauqua,
the greatest oarsmen living, Hanlan and
Courtney, contesting for purse Of $4,000, to
be known as the "IIop Bitters Price" which
is given by the Hop Bitters company, of
Rochester, New York, a company that has
displayed wonderful liberality in encour-
aging athletic sports Of the best class. The
race will not be a hppodrome, but a contest
wholly upon the merits Of the two, and will
create more enthusiasm than any race that
has ever been pulled in this country, and
extraordinary time may be expected. The
event will attract uen interested in athletic
sports to the lake from! every section of the
country, and arouse degree Of enthusiasm
that has probably never been equalled. It
is gratifying to lovers ofathletics to see firm
like the Hop Ditters company evince such
an interest in sporting matters, and when
this class of people encourage sportsmen as
they have by running base ball club, and
now by inaugurotng this race, it is certain
that the standard will be raised and sport
ing matters taken out Of the control of tine
gamblers, who aim to govern all contests ol
this class, The men who help to elevate our
sports, and give real pleasure to thousands
are in turn deserving Of the support of the
the public particularly when they present tC
it an article ofreal merit such as are the cele,
brated Hop Bitters manufactured by tho
company alluded 10.
