THE CLEVELAND BOLT.

We were rebuked the other day for ex-
pressing the opinion that Ohio politics are
intensely selfish, but we think that the
emeute in the Cleveland district estab-
fishes beyond question that our estimate
of the controlling forces in that state ia not
at fault. Here is republican district put
in jeopardy, when nothing in Ohio, for the
sake of its honor, should be placed in peril
now-and that, too, because the selfish
ambitions of competing candidates are
charged with larger percentage of cussed-
ness than of patriotism. If they cannot
have n choice of seats in the cart they are
ready to overturn it. There is too much
of that stripe of politics in Ohio to make it
a political paradise, until love of principle
and of country shall have absorbed that
spirit which exacts all and comedies moth
ing. 1t will be q very cruel and wicked
thing toward General GARFIELD and the
republican party, which is honoring Ohio
so much, if this Cleveland difficulty is per-
mitted to breed divisions and trouble in the
party to the loss of n member of congress.
IL must not De' lHe tWO Icpubiictin papers
in Cleveland, "both daily" should take this
matter in hand at once and bring about a
speedy adjustment. If Mr.. TOWNSEND has
been fairly nominated, the bolters should
receive no countenance whatever If the
nomination is not fair and in accordance
with party usage, then there should be
patriotism and integrity enough in the party
to wipe out what has been done and
guard the party of that district against
future distractions. 1t is no time for trifling
or quar- cling in the state of Ohio, if the
party is determined on success.

SOME Of our esteemed republican cotem-
poraries are greatly shocked that major
general in the army should be the candidate
Of a political party for the presidency of the
United States.-N. Y World.
If the World had presented the real char
acter Of the party whose candidate General
HANCOCK has become, then no one would
wonder that people should be shocked at it.
1t is not shocking that a major-general of
the union army should become the candi-
date of "a political party" but that he
should have become the candidate of the
political party which had rebelled against
the government, and is still at heart in re-
belion against the constitution and laws
upon which the government is based, is
rather shocking Upon cool reflection

SENATOR. ELECT GoRMAN Of Maryland has
been interviewed. In speaking of tho sixth
congressional district Of that state Mr.. Cor.
man said at was during the war thoroughly
loyal in sentiment to tho union, and furnished
great number of soldiers TO the union army"
Still later he says, in speaking Of the pro-
posed congressional clndi dates from the same
district: Colonel schay Of Cumberland,
and II. Kidd Douglass, phO scrUed IN St0ReicaU
Jdcksots staff, are among the most promi-
mont" The loyal sentiment Of that district is
not very great when 1t sends rebel to cou.
gress."
GENERAL M. c. BUTLER of South Carolina
writes q manly letter to the editors Of tho
Charleston Neps aud Courier, sustaining their
course relative to the Cash duel. This Is all
very we'll, but Senator Butler is not the best
man to preach to his people. The stain is
upon his garments of an active participation,
as accessory before and after the fact, in the
murder of defenseless negroes ut Hamburg
only few short years ngo. He was hand.in-
glove with that lawloss sentiment which fnds
vent in just such crimes as the duel he de-
nounces. The canker is deeper than lie cares
to declare. 1t is in the society--in the people.
1t is a part of their unwritten creed aud edu-
cation. The NeUs aud Courier has justified in-
tolerance toward political adversaries; it has
laughed over tissue ballots and it CLOSED over
and apologized for the ku.klux, forgetting that
the tissue ballots and the duel and the murder
by armed men Of defenselcss and peaceful
voters may be in time turned against itself
and its interests. To use tho lawless as tools
for the annihiation of the negro vote was all
right in politics that the same tools in the
control of designing white men may be used TO
defeat the advocates of law aud order is an
archy. We hope this may not come to mass

SINCE the publication of General GRANTS
order to the Boys in Blue" G eneral GAR
FIELD has received, one of his personal
friends say hundreds of dispatches from old
leaders in the ranks, assuring him that the
organization would be tr ue to its colors
and to him.. The enthusiasm is growing all
over tho country. A democratic representa-
tive-elect from Pennsylvania, who, week
ago. was sanguine that HANCOCK would
carry Pennsylvania, views the activity
among the Boys in Blue evidently with
much alarm, and yesterday expressed
doubts as to the democracy's carrying Penn
sylvauia. A few more days will make him
admit GARFIELD's election. One of the
dispatches received by General GARFIELD
states that on Inauguration day $4,000 Boys
| in Blue would escort him up Pennsylvania
| avenue.
National Republican., 1880-07-28
1NcoxeRuIrIus or THE CANVASS.

The confederate campaign for HANCOCK
works heavily. Given n solid south of 13s
votes through fraud, intimidation and
counting, the problem at first had q mighty
promising look. 1t seemed q comparatively
easy matter to pick up in the north the
needed AZ votes TO secure the presidency,
and the simplicity of the thing gave great
inspiration to the supporters of the plan of
running union general on q confederate
track.
The drawbacks to the plan are consider
able, and the sense of their greatness grows
with each advancing day of the campaign.
The first Of these drawbacks is the incon-
gruity of the arrangement. People ask why
should the south he solid for HANCOCK and
solid against GRANT? If GRANT did his
best to put down the rebellion and HAM
COCK did his best, there could be no choice
between them on that score, except one may
have been less eileetual than the other;
but if the south prefers HANCOCK TO
GRANT for this reason, the reason alone dis
poses Of HANcOCK's claims to superior mill
itary distinction, and that disposes Of all
the capital he has to put into the campaign
which is of any value at the north for his
claims to craftsmanship, founded upon sur
render order No. 10, are too shallow for con-
sideration, and are met with universal deri-
sion. Even schoolboys can see that there is
absolutely nothing in the talk about HAN
COCKS craftsmanship, and that order No. 40
is lonesome fact which was worn out dur
ing the first week of its resurrection. HAN
COCK was not nominated, therefore, for his
superior generalship against the south, but in
spite of it, and for quite different
reason. That reason cannot be concealed,
though there are very cunning efforts made
to conceal it, General HANCOCK is sup
posed to be large enough to cover the con-
lederate idea, and running as union
| fighter, it is hoped the northern people will
look only ut the figure-head, and fail to see
the scoly serpent in the rear of it. The in
congruity is glaring. A union general can
never be favorite with the southern peo-
pie because of his generalship, or on nc
count of his earnestness against the rebel
lion. 1t is just as impossible as it is for the
northern people to love that great unpa-
triotic aud infamous fire-eater JEFF DAVIS.
HANCOCK commends himself to the south,
not because he fought them CALAMITY, but
because he finally became an accomplice in
ANDY JohNsoN's plot to throw the govern
ment back into the hands that were raised
to destroy it. We might as well never have
tried to put down the rebellion. Our blood
and treasure was spent for naught if we
must make peace on HANCocK's plan
BUCHANAN proposed the same thing at the
outset, and would have saved a million o
lives and S4,00O,0O0, 600 had this plan beer
accepted. To fight rather than he unde
confederate rule and ruin and then sur
render is too ignominious. The people viii
not do it, Ii HANCOCK wants to be re
warded for his services he must get out o
bad company. What pleases JEFF DAVE
is not pleasing to the people who put JEFF
DAVIS and his rebellion down.

MINOR TOPICS.

ACCORDING to the last census of London,
when compared with the most recent returns
of the inhabitants of New York, Philadelphia
Brooklyn, Chicago, Boston aud Cincinnati,
the united populations of these six American
cities just about equal the population of the
British capital
THE late earthquake which destroyed the
city of Manila is the second experience of the
kind for the unfortunate people within twenty
years. In 1868 almost every house was thrown
down aud over 800 persons were killed The
houses hereafter will doubtless be constructed
of wood or built of one story.
THE Star recently referred edtoraly to the
elevated railways of this country aud said that
London and Paris were preparing to initiate
and erect the same ia their localities. The
fact is that elevated railways in London are
an old institution. The Black Wa Il elevated
railway was running in that city twenty years
ago, and then il was no new thing.
OUR ideas of the magnitude Of the task of
removing such a single stone as the obelisk
may be moderated when we know that more
than 1000 years ago the same stone was
brought 200 miles down the Nile on floats,
landed aud placed in position without the
aid Of steam or modern machinery, by the
tollers of that day, What they did with their
hands should be an easy task in the present
day of powerful engines aud of steamers
large enough to put it in tho lower hold and
cross the ocean,
ON Saturday last the bark Tiber brought to
New York FROM Shanghai the iron which COM
posed the only railway China ever had. Ten
years ago three Connecticut yankees obtained
the right to build and operate horse railway
from Woo.sung to Shanghai, distance Of
sixteen miles The iron and materials were
shipped from this country, aud 1t is the frag
ments of these which now return to New
York. From the beginning the railroad met
