We rejoice to notice that the voice
of the people of Ohio has had mol
lyfying influence upon Gen. Ewing.
He is reported as saying that some
time one or the other of our systems
Of currency will have to give way.
Either the National Banks must go,
or the greenbacks must be destroyed.
But the time has not yet come to do
either. 1t is not clear which would
be best. The policy is now to let
both alone, and the future will de-
eide which should go.

The Republican State Convention
of Pennsylvania met at Harrisburg
last Wednesday. Its main work was
the appointment OF delegates to the
Chicago convention. The appoint
ments were made, and they were in
structed, by vote of 1873 to lib, to
vote as unit for the nomination
of Gen. Grant. Should Gen. Grant
decline the nomination, it is be-
lieved the vote Of the State will be
cast for Senator Blaine. The pur-
pose to instruct for Grant meets with
much opposition from leading Repub-
lican Journals Of the State. The
Philadelphia Times speaks its mind
in this vigorous style:
This result astounded both sides,
and left the vanquished more proud
of their defeat than were the victors
of their triumph. There are none
so blind as not to see that the in
dorsement of Grant by the Pennsyl
vania Convention is the veriest
mockery of the public sentiment that
should have been honestly voiced by
that body, and it is not merely a
fraud and q falsehood on its face,
but it is a cruel sacrifice Of Grant
before the world. To assume that
the meager twenty majority given
for Grant as the choice of the Re-
publicans of this State for the Presi-
dency, can be accepted neither at
home nor abroad as anything else
than q decisive Grant defeat, must
be the result either of ignorance or
madness.

The Dog Law.

A member of the Committee on
Agriculture, in the House of Rep
resentatives, addressed the following
questions to each County Auditor in
the State, viz:
What amount of claims has been
paid for sheep killed and injured by
dogs, and the amounts on file unpaid
and the probable collection on dog
tax in December last?
Do the farmers in your county
wish any change in the dog law?
Answers have been received from
seventy-one counties with the follow
ing result:-Ten counties are non-
committal; four desire the repeal OF
the law, and six ask reduction OF
the tax to fifty cents, while .ffty-One
desire no reduction of tax, few OF
these preferring to raise it higher.
A large number ask that the law be
amended so as to authorize the kill
ing of all dogs on which the tax is
not paid. Farmers and sheep raisers
arc almost unanimous in asking that
the law be not disturbed in its
efficiency. They prefer to have it
more stringent rather than less so.
In some counties the tax collected
on dogs is not much more than suffi-
cient to pay losses Of sheep killed,
while in other counties a large sur
plus exists, but may be drawn out at
any time, if the dogs do enough mis-
chief.

General Grosvenor, who has been
attending Court here, left for home
Monday. He was not interviewed
on political questions while in Pom
eroy. but spoke his views quite free
ly, and we can perhaps correctly in
fer { } that he is decidedly against
the Grant boom; (2) that he is in ia
vor of John Sherman Of Ohio; but
(3) if 1t should turn out that Sher-
man has no chance, he will be solid
for Blaine of Maine. These are three
planks of his platform at present.

From the present appearance of
things any attempt toward radical
reorganization will be strenuously
opposed by a great many Repubh-
cans.
The common school question has
underwent quite q lively. shaking
up during the last week. The fol-
lowing is the nature OF some of the
measures proposed: Requiring all
Superintendents of schools to be
classified as teachers and undergo
examinations the same as other
teachers; another making it compul-
sorry upon Boards of Education to
furnish INDECENT children with text
books; two or three others requiring
a uniformity in textbooks, and pro-
hibiting any changes Of same within
a given period Of three or five years,
only under certain circumstances.
Another to allow every woman who
is resident of this State, of twenty
one years Of age and upward, ex.
cepting paupers and persons under
guardianship, who can read intel
ligibly from the statutes Of Ohio,
and write plain hand, shall in the
city, township, ward or district in
which she shall be a resident, have
the right to vote at any election
held for the purpose Of electing
members of school boards, and shall
also be eligible to election upon such
school board. This is an expert
ment that has been tried in several
States of the Union, and in England
with seemingly good results. Ger
tainly no class can be more inter.
ested in the success and prosperity
Of our common schools than the
mothers of the land.
