WASHINGTON, August 10.-Up to
the present time the democrats have
not shown much disposition to make
an aggressive fight in Ohio this fall.
Indiana has chiefly engrossed their
attention, and the determination ex-
lists among the leaders to carry that
state by an increased majority of 1876.
Late reports from Ohio are of such a
hopeful character that the question of
giving the democracy of the state
assistance from outside is being dis
cussed. Information recently received
from Garfeld's district proves that
the republicans there who demanded
his retirement in 1873, and in 1876,
because of his connection with the
Credit Mobilier and DeGolyer paving
contract, will not vote for him for
president. Garfeld's majority fell
from 10.935 in 1872 to 1926 in 1874-a
loss of S409 votes. Hayes majority
over Tilden in Ohio in 1876 was 1916.
The German vote of Cincinnati, it is
reported, will be cast largely for Han
cock, and there is every reason to
believe that, with a good organization
and determined effort, the state will
be carried by the democrats.

SIeeD OfInGants.

The infant needs soft bed, espe-
cially in cold seasons of the year.
Cradles are obsolete. Cots or cribs are
better for the infant and its mother.
Continuous rocking hurts the child,
and entails constant toll upon the
mother. The infants cot should be
near the mothers and well protected
against cold drafts of air and direct
rays of heat and light. In we'll
warmed rooms the infant gains moth
ing by sleeping with its mother, and
it runs the risk of inhaling the exhal.
atiOns emanating from her person,
and then that of suffocation. In Eng
land alone, during one hundred years.
four thousand infants were suffocated
to death while sleeping near their
mothers person. No infant, no child
no young person should sleep in the
same bed. or even in the same room
with an old and sickly person. Infants
should sleep alternately upon one side
and then ON the other, and should be
changed from side to side every third
hour at the longest. So doing prevents
the secretions Of the mouth from ac.
cumulating near the throat and sc
disturbing the infants rest.

THE water works of Little Rock

and himself owns three hundred and

new company, takes five shares, and
Mr.. B. +. Townsend, superintendent,
one share. For two years past the
works have supplied the city with
water free of charge, but a new pro-
gramme is now in order, and the cor.
poration will be called upon to pay
something for their aqueous indulgen-
cies. Mr.. Barrett says he has trav-
eled extensively, and, with the excep-
ton of Denver, Colorado, he has moi
seen any city improving so rapidly as

New Orleans Times.l
All efforts, thus far, to effect com
promise between the two factions of
the democratic party in Virginia have
failed. A large meeting was held at
Woodstock, few days ago, for the
purpose of making some arrangement
by which the party could unite upon
one electoral ticket. The leaders of
both factions were conspicuous by
their absence, and nothing was accom-
plished The leaders were afraid to
attend, believing that ii they did they
would be repudiated by their respec-
tive factions. Petitions are now being
extensively circulated, addressed to
Absalom Kainer and General William
Malone, the leaders of the two fac
tions, urging them to use their inhu-
enco in favor of an adjustment, and
proposing that both of the electoral
tickets shall be withdrawn, and that
a new electoral ticket shall be put in
the field, made up as follows: Each
faction to name five electors, and the
national democratic committee to
name one, making the eleven electors
to which the state is entitled. 1t is
not believed that this petition will
meet with a favorable response.
