fTempleton," the Boston correspondent Of the Hartford Courant. pays the Springfield Republican the following we'll deserved con- pliment .....
 The Springfield Republican had especial oc- casion for rejoicing. It boiled down a lot of candidates up in it's section of the state, and seems really to have had its advice followed in electing men from out of both parties. It did a good work in aiding to defeat Mir. King man, the republican candidate for councillor in it's district. Mir. Kingman was personally an agreeable gentleman, but when he was in the senate, dozen years ago, he gave all his time to log rolling. He was the most invete- rate trader ever saw Tn legislative body.
 It is in just such work as this that the inde- pendent journal finds it's true province. Would that there were more of them! ,a od,
 The U. s. Senate of 1881 is to be closer than we had imagined. If the Republicans carry the legislatures of Connecticut, New York, New Jersey. Pennsylvania and Indiana, and elect their President, in 1880, they will have the Senate by the casting vote of the Vice President There seems little doubt but that the Republicans will carry all these states except the last. In 1878 the Democrats and Greenbaekers combined had majority in the Indiana legislature. The state has, of late years. been Democratic by small majority on the popular vote. but Democratic popular majority has not always brought in Demo- cratic legislature, and there is certainly a chance that Republican may succeed MT Nc Donald in 'S1. In 1888, Democrats go out in NewJersey and Oregon and, even if Indiana continues Democratic. the chances seem to fa- vor the election of Republicans to succeed Grover Dregon> aud McPherson (N. J.), which would give us Republican Senate ir that year.
 There is evidence that Bismarck's last move for German consolidation is having it's effect At the Congress which temporarily settled the Eastern question, thst willy diplomatist len, his whole force to the depression of Russian and the elevation of Austrian authority among the Slavic peoples recently freed from Turk ish control. The root of the matter isevident Bismarck proposes to make Austria rather than Russia the head of the Slavic races oi Southeastern Europe. Such position vii inevitably tend to the transformation of Aus tria into nOn-German power, and the event ual secession of the German portion of Austri' to Germany. Not only does the Austrian ab sorption of the late Turkish provinces tend tt such result, but it also checks the power o Russia, hitherto the head of Panslavism in En rope, and the natural absorption by that coun try of the provinces recently wrested from thu Turk. Just now, Austria seems to be playing Bismarck's game with great industry and littl, foresight.

der, he entered a complaint and had
writ of arrest issued and placed in the
hands of Sheriff Oldham, who started
from here a short time after Rosencranz
had left on the stage, overtaking the
stage and arresting Rosencranz few
miles beyond Willow creek station.
When arrested Rosencranz appeared
pale and agitated and inquired anNiously
upon what charge he had been arrested
Receiving no satisfactory answer from
Oldham, Rosencranz, after some guess
ing, said at length: :" / know now;lt IS
about that Bascem affair. Sheriff Old
ham returned here Friday, having Ros-
encranz in custody, and placed his pris-
oner III Jail.
Saturday morning Sheriff oldham
started for Snake river with writ for
the arrest of Lewis, and has not re-
turned at this writing. From what has
TRANSFERRED it is claimed, as certain,
that these men got somehow the 81 200
in gold coin which belonged to the
mardered Bascom. Whether they got
it as Rosencranz says, from the canvass
blouse which may have been taken
from the body by the Indians and
thrown aside with the coin in it, or in
some other way, is the present subject
OF inquiry.

THE GLENN's FERRY NUMBERS.
Suspicious that they were Consmitted
by White Hen.

A year ago, few days after the hos
tile Bannocks crossed Snake river on
their way south, the bodies of John
Bascom, Robert Furguson and stran-
ger were found a few miles below
Glenn's Ferry, on Snake river. The
remains were found near the wagon in
which the men had been travelling, and
the carcasses of their animals were also
foand in the vicinity. 1t was supposed
a. the time, that tae Indians had killed
the men and the horses. The Boise
Statesman says, this supposition was
noe doubted until few days ago when
the following circumstances came TO
light; On Wednesday of last week
man named Ben Rosencranz came into
town on horse back and had his horse
put up at Agnew's stable. Daring the
next day, Thursday, Rosencranz called
at the stsble and told Mr.. Agnew that
he was going away and wished to have
his horse sent out to Indian creek on
the Overland road by the first oppce-
tunity. During his stay in town Rosen-
cranz tohIMr VIM. Cess, of this city and

it was desd mans money; that he
and man named Len Lewis, residing
on Snake river, had found the sum of
1000 in gold coin in an old canvass
blouse near tae spot where Bascom and
the other men We're murdered, and IL at

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.

The Ohio campaign now opened,
promises to be one of the most interest
ing and exciting ever held in the State.
There are three tickets in. the field for
State offices, the Republican, Democra-
tic and Greenback or National. Foster,
an ex-member of Congress, and especial
favorite of the Administration, heads
the Republican ticket; Ewing mem
her of the present Congress, and broth
er-in-l law of General Sherman, is the
Democratic nominee for Governor, aud
General Pia.t, is the Standard bearer of
the Greenbackers for the same Office.
Foster is supposed to represent the
Presidential interests as he does the
financial views of Secretary Sherman,
and will be backed by the influence OF
the Administration and the National
banks. Ewing is a favorite of many
of the Greenbackers, and as they can
not expect to elect the nominee of their
party, which is hopelessly in the minor
ity, he will undoubtedly draw heavily
from the Greenback vote. As Ewing
served in the Union army during the
war and made good record as sol
der, while Foster, though now a 6 stall
wart" Republican, like Blaine, remain
ed at home and sent Democratic sub
stitute to the front to represent him, it
il not probable that the bloody shirt
will figure to any great extent in the
campaign. 1t would al least be impol-
itic, to charge the Democratic nominee
who fought for the Union, with being
rebel sympathiser, whose election
would endanger the Union, and to hold
up his Republican adversary, who kept
aioof from the strife, as a noble exam
pie of loyalty. Il is therefore highly
Improbable that the CORY garment will
he unfurled during the contest in the
Buckeye State. Financial measureymay
be discussed to some extent, as Ewing
81 strongly in favor of the remonetiza-
sion OF silver and the passage of the
Warner BILL This will array the banks
aud capitalists against him; and I'M
do1lte,sly money will be freely used
where it is expected IT will do the most
good to defeat him. His success will
make him prominent candidate for
the Presidency. aad as such, he ought to
be a favorite with the people of Nevada,
as his views on the silver question are
identical with those of Senator J. P.
Jones. If, however, Ewing is defeated
ia Ohio, and he will be if money can
accomplish it. Sherman, who is repre-
sented by Foster in the campaign, is
almost certain to be the Republican
nominee for President in 1880, even
thongh Grant and Blaine and Conkling
should compete with him in the Con-
ventiou.
