active interference. This course was
rendered necessary by the general-indig-
nation aroused by the attempted Four
Million Steal, and the recent conviction
of some Of its agents for Legislative bri-
berry and corruption, intensified by the
immediate pardon of the criminals by
the Republican Governor and Pardon
Board. At any rate, the late change in
the management of the company promi-
ses better things in this direction.
The Republican ticket is, for many
reasons. not strong in the State. When
Garfield was candidate for Speaker OF
the House, three Republican members
from Pennsylvania refused to vote for
him, on account of his shifting position
on the tariff question. He is free-tra-
der to-day and protectionlsts to-mor-
row. member of the Cobden Club and
an eager bidder for the votes of the iron
men ON any terms they may choose to
dictaie-tcrms which will probably hold
good until after the election.
The old machine was very much shat
tered at Chicago, and, rickety us II is,
the managers are not disposed to lend
it to Gen. Garfield to ride upon. The
"Old Guard" is sick. MIR. Cameron and
the Grant men, who detest Ohio polti-
clans in general, and Hayes and Gar
field in particular, are taking no part in
the campaign. The defeat of Garfield
will he their yindication, and they look
forward to 1884. In Philadelphia, Al
legheny. Lancaster and other counties
there are also serious division in the Re
publican ranks. growing out of the CON
fictS of rival Rings and their bosses.
On the other hand, the Democracy is
thoroughly united. Mr.. Dill possesses
the confidence of the party in n special
degree, while all factions in Philadelphia
have fused under the skillful leadership
of Mr.. Cassidy. and in Allegheny under
that of Mr. Hopkins. Gen. Hancock is
especially popular in his own State. If
any name is GOOD for its electoral vote it
is his.
There was. on the combined vote OF
all parties. a majority of over sixty thou
sand against IIoyt the Ring Republican,
whose administration has brought such
grievous scandal upon the Common
wealth. Gen Hancock will have his full
party vote. and should the better part OF

An Ohio man. recently returned from
a residence III China, says that the high
est ambition indulgod in by Chinese
woman is TO have her name placed upon
public record as having passed through
40 years of virtuous widowhood. There
are in certain public places tablets of
stone upon which are inscribed the
names OF those women who have lived
during that time above suspicion. But
few ambitious hopes of this character
are realized. however, as the scarcity of
names on the tablets fully proves. Girls
have a hard time out there he says, The
first born, if girl generally dies from
hcartless and systematic neglect. They
throw them under the table, into the
yard or river, or let them die of starya-
ton. No pity seems to move parent :
heart in reference to their first child if
Il female. 1t is an object of hatred from
the moment of its birth, and, though not
often killed outright, is suffered to die
by a studied ignoring Of It's existence.
