GEN. EWING,s SPEECH.

Gen. Thomas Ewing, Democratic capdi-
date for Governor, opened the Democratic.
campaign in Ohio Thursday night with a
speech st his residence in Lancaster. He
spoke to his own neighbors aud friends, and
under the roof of that yeneratcd father who
taught him to respect the constitution, and
sent him forth to 6ght in its defense. II
that father were alive now, he said he would
fully approve what his son had done and
spoken in Congress in opposition to-the oen'-
soltdating tendencies of the Republican
party. Those tendencies he considered to
be all adverse to the independence and free
action of the masses, which were subverted
by increasing the burden of debt, cutting off
the opportunities and rewards Of labor, swcll,
ing the wealth and power OF tho privileged
classes, "and. then, By alyipg tho money
power to the illimitsble forces of government
patronage and pluuder. to control elections
by bribery and force, aud practically subveIt
the free rule of tho ballot" Dolly the united
action of the masses Of the people would
prevent them from succeeding. Gen. Ewing

public expenses brought abou. since 1875,
when the Democrats secured control of the
House OF Represe natives, and in spite OF
the most vehement and determined resist
ance of the administration and the Senate.
He insisted that the refundiug processes bad
been made unduIy expensive to the people,
and that the success of resumption was duo
less to Secretary Sherman than to good har-
vests and great foreign demand for cur
products. lie announced himself a deci-
dcd b-me .alist, as opposed to national banks
aud in favor of Democratic government
money, as distinguished from national
bank note currency, the volume of which
could be expanded or contracted at the
pleasure of private corporations. This, he
con tended, was essentially and in its nature
a sovereign power, which should in no case
be de legated to individuals corporations.

Previous plans for veptilatins the Hall
of Representatives in the Capitol at Wash
ine.on have given way to new methods,
which, it is believed, will prove moro salts
factory The principle is to ventiate tho
premises by sunlight and direct exposure to
the outside atmosphere. For this purpose
the south side of the hall is now being cut
away by an army of workmen. This will
require the removal of the present Speakers
desk and reporters gallery. and extend the
present hall some twenty feet to the outer
wall of the building.

The Young Lady from Boston.

Among the city visitors who are spending
the season in orr place, is Il Boston gentle
man with his daughtcr-a highly cultured
young lady of twenty, with refined manners,
aesthetic tastes and eyeglasses. At the
boarding house table, one day last week,
young Mr. Sampson, who is Il clerk in Il dry
goods store, Observed as he waited for his
dessert:
"Dii YOU see that tall book agent in town
today
1t hein. very warm, nobody vouchSaGed
4 reply, but young Mr.. sampson, not al all
Disconnected by the outburSt OF silence, con-
tinued:
lie was in the store this morning, to
show me his book-mcdical work, or 'lus-
trlied bible. or something of that sort. 1t
was right hot, and | was sitting on the
counter, kinder thinking like, when i'll he
comes, takes off his coat and pants
Here Mr.. Sampson was interrupted by
the smashing OF Il plate, which had iallen
violently to the floor, beside the young lady
from Boston. After the hired girl had re-
moved the broken pieces, and the confusion
hatl subsidized, Mr.. SIMPSON resumed his
narrative, without noticing the agonizct
expression on the Boston young lady'S face.
CAS- WIS Saying-he comes putting into
the store sets his valise down with Il bang,
takes of his coat and pants"
CON- screamed the young lady from
Boston, in IN awful voice, that cracked the
soup-tureen from Alpha to Omega, and fair
y made the hair of the bachelor boarder'S
wig stand on end. And then, rs Mr.. Samp-
son opened his mouth rs if to continue his
story, she fell under the table in a stony
faint, and was horne to her room in Il state
of rigid in$enSihilty.
And after quiet had been restored, and
everybody had silently said nothing for SOM"
moments, young MIR. Sampson remarked in
a very soft and gentle voice, us he waited
for his second piece of pie:
:" He comes into the store, You know, and
he takes of his coat and pants: Is this
hot enough for You
