Cincinnati, June 21.-The presiden-
tial situation is best described by say
ing all are at sea. At the meeting OF
the Ohio delegation to-day the chair
man was elected bY anti-Thurman
men. This was surprise 10 the
Thurman men, who expected they had
a majority. It Is thought that on the
6rst ballot the Ohio men will cast a
solid vote for Thurman. After that
the Payne men will have control.
Whether this will influence New York
TO unite on Payne remains to be seen.
The Tammany men are hoping for
something.
II appears that most Of the southern
men are here uncommitted; that while
the delegates will more largely vote for
Bayard than any other, yet they have
indicated TO the northern states that
they viii support the man that New
York, connectlc1h New Jersey and
Indiana unite on rs the one most
likely TO carry these states. The three
states hrst named are In caucus to-
night, but no conclusion has yet been
reached. Whatever the result. it seems
probable that whoever receives a ma
jority Of the votes Of these states he
will be the nominee.
The Illinois delegation held secret
caucus tonight. The vote taken on
presidential preferences stood 16 for
Seymour, 1s for Morrison, and the rest
gathering. The resolution to vote rs
a unit for Seymour was expunged.

Although no action has been taken with re- gard to calling minister for permanent resi- dence, there will be preaching every Sunday, and it is possible that Rev. Mr. Gordon, the young Scotchman who occupied the desk on the 11th inst. may be induced to locate here after he shall have completed his theological studies in June, which is "a consummation devoutly to be wished" Rev. MT. Day o Avon, Conn.,, preached last Sunday.

Baby Mine' was instantly hushed; the crowd roared and the dripping Professor swore, but took it as coolly and philosophically as could be expected. It may be a good joke, but it is no credit to the boys who per petrated it.

To The Mourning,

Go gather earth g blossoming beauty,
 The glory and bloom of her bowers, And mantle the graves of the sleepers
 With the golden light of the flowers Though they droop with the summer de
 parting,
 And sink with our dead to'the tomb, They die not, they only are sleeping,
 Awaiting their Easter of bloom. If when, in the hearts desolaton We gaze on the face of our dead, And fear in that dreamless reposing, The spirit forever has fled, And their tomb be no longer transfgured, As faith lifts her wing to depart, The flowers, in their time of upspringing, Sweet prophets will be to the heart.
