| Ewing and tho Ohio Campaign.
NEW YORK, July 25th.-The Saa
has an editorial declaring Ewing
out of the question as a Presiden-
tial candidate. The writer says:
"General Ewing may answer for
Governor of Ohio, but he will new
er do for President of the United
States. One candidate is dis.
posed off,
Special dispatches from WASH
ington deny that Ewing, while in
New York, had a conference with
Tilden on the Ohio campaign, or
that Pendleton and Thurman are
hostile to him.
| Upon being interviewed Ewing
said that most of the Greenback
| Congressman favor his election,
and he mentioned Wright, Ladd,
Lowe and Stephenson as having
positively declared for him. Ewing
believes he has a big contest on
hand in Ohio, and declares, there
fore, that he will not do service in
the Maine campaign. He believes
Foster is Sherman's substitute, and
that Fosters election in Ohio will
undoubtedly result in making
Sherman the Republican nominee
for the Presidency.

meet the whole top of the Culebra;
then, trains Of powder being pre-
pared, the whole top will be blown
up at once. To carry away the
debris steam cars will be run on
circular tramway. The canal will
be AZ miles long, so feet deep, with
the same width OF channel as the
SueZ, with eight basins for anchor

Thus fifty vessels in a day, if neces-
sary, could pass and draw water AS

sherman's speech.
NEW YORK, July 24th.-Ofcourse
the Republican journals are Well
pleased with Sherman's speech.
Even the San says it was shrewd |
speech by honest John Sherman.
The World, however, thinks he is
about on borrowed capi- |
tai, and that the success of resump-
tion is by no means his. The Her
aid says of Sherman's speech: at
is a clear, cogent and able presenta-
ton of the financial condition of
the country, and incidentally a
very damaging and conclusive re-
ply to the Greenback and imitation
Dem ocratic arguments against re-
National Banks and the
general financial policy Of the
Republicsn Celebration.
