Two Surprises.

The winter custom of evening sur

agreeable surprise on Mr. and Mrs Nc
Lehman and Mrs. Metchem. The party
well occupied the first half OF the night
and was made happy by good things
and kind treatment.
The other surprise occurred last
evening at Mrs E. Stevens, having
originated at Mr.. Grifin's. 1t was
complete and successful. Among the
attendants were many present at the
former, and the hostess not lacking IL

The Ohio Election.

Mr. John Mclean, of the Cincinnati En-
quirer, says the result sis the initial perform
anee of the work of throwing the Republican
party out of power in the United States and
turning over of the books to the Democracy
for examination. Itmeans general change"
The Democrats of Albany celebrated the
victory in Ohio by parade Going to the
residence of Gov. Cleveland, he was called
out, and responded as follows: "We celebrate
tonight victory in most important field,
and victory which gives us an earnest of
much greater yet to come. We look with
pride and joy to the achievement of our breth
rem in sister state and yield to them all the
praise and admiration which their gallantry
and courage claim. The first battle in the
great campaign of 1884 has been fought and
won Ohio in the van calls on us to follow.
What shall the answer be? The Democracy
of New York sends back the ringing assur-
ance that we are on the way, and in a few
short DAYS will be at her side bearing glorious
trophies This is not an idle boast. full of
temporary enthusiasm, nor the voice of blind
partisan zeal. We shall succeed because we
deserve success, because the people are just,
and because we bear high aloft the banner of
their rights.
Hon. Thomas F. Bayard said, speaking of
the election in Ohio: ''The prospect is most
favorable. The Democratic party is on the
eve of a brilliant triumph. The result in Ohio
foreshadows this without doubt. Even if
Judge Foraker had been elected we would not
have been much jeopardized, but Demo
cratic triumph, after such great exertions had
been put forth by the Republicans, puts Ohio
in the Democratic ranks and places the cleo
ton of our candidate beyond the shadow of
doubt"
Ex-senator Hendricks is of the opinion
that the result in Ohio clearly foreshadows
Democratic success next year.

The Intent of the Late Movement
in Europe.
e Nelc York american Sentry.

From the Ne.c York american Sentry.
But few years ago Baron Hibner, of
Austria, submitted that a renewal of the Eu-
ropean Holy Alliance was then requisite
Since that time the tripartite league between
Austria, Prussian Germany and Italy has been
effected The attitude of the Court of Spain,
by Alfonso's visit 10 the German Emperor,
and let us add that of the Court of Great
Britain, too, which was also represented lately
by three princes of the royal blood, one of
whom was the Prince of Wales, shows plainly
that the sympathy of the mobiles and grandees
of those nations favors the movement for
which the aforesaid alliance has been insti
tuted although the Sentry thinks that the
British and probably the Spanish people will
be unwilling to endorse any union with it on
the part of their rulers.
In the meantime, however, the work goes
on The astute German chancellor, Bis
marck, has succeeded in making King Alton
so serve his purpose, if he desires to effect a
rupture with France. 1t could hardly be ex-
pected of Frenchmen, who have witnessed the
sufferings of their countrymen in Alsace and
Lorraine, to receive with open arms the newly
created Colonel of Uhan regiment in the
person of King Alfonso. Of course both
policy and politeness required that he should
not be insulted, but the British brewers were
not polite or polite except TOR humanity when
they fogged Field Marshal Haynan, of Aus
tria (the butcher and -whipper); nor
are the masses in any nation polite when they
look on potentate of their own or any other
country which they deem their enemy. The
papers instruct us that President Grevy did
apologize for the conduct of his countrymen,
but it appears that does not satisfy Spain,
backed by Prussian Germany. 1t seems that
a public declaration, if not something more
humiliating to France, is desired. If that be
granted, what then? Why, then, the Sentry
surmises we may see the real intents that I'M
derlie the formation of the tripartite alliance,
which are, the re-establishment of monarch
cal power on the basis it had previous to the
Great French Revolution, and the stamping
out of republicanism in France.

Needless Alarm.
m York WnrLd.

From the NeiC York World.
The Republican who are so seriously alarm
ed lest the Tariff should be lost sight of by
the people can now take comfort. Their
fears are unfounded.
An election has been held this week in
Ohio. The Democrats met last June to nom
mate candidates and construct a platform,
In the platform was the following plank:
''We favor tariff for revenue, limited to
the necessities of government economically
administered, and so adjusted in its applica-
ton as to prevent unequal burdens, encourage
productive interests at home and afford just
compensation to labor, but not to create or
foster monopolies.
Upon full vote of the State, after more
than three months thoughtful consideration,
the people of Ohio have Endorsed this tariff
plank by over $4,000 majority.
1t has won glorious victory in Ohio this
year. 1t will win yet more glorious victory
in the Union next year.
No; the Republicans need not be alarmed.
The Tariff will not be ignored

An Able IN Speech.

There was Republican mass meeting IN
Baltimore last Friday night, which had been
well advertised. At this meeting Hart B..
Holton, the Republican nominee for Cover
nor, was announced to speak. The Baltimore
Sun Of Saturday gives this account Of Mr..
Holton's speech:
Hon. Hart B. HoIton was then introduced
amid much applause. He made preliminary
excuse, was unprepared to make an address,
and was gratifed at the size Of the audience.
ssIf / am the recipient Of sufficient sufrages
to make me Governor" said Mr.. Holton, i
viii give you all the promised reform.
think it would be the best thing that has hap
pened to the State Of Maryland for long
time.'
A candidate for the high Office Of Governor
Of Maryland, who has been canvassing for
several weeks, when called upon to address a
meeting at which he was advertised to speak
some days in advance, standing up and max
ing the excuse that he was unprepared to
make an address, Such nonsense. If he had
any ideas Of government; any measures to
uphold or any theories or principles to ad-
vance, ne neSuco Dub llthC plSPsaA es'oh' -
man with any intelligent idea of state affairs,
of the needs of the times, of what legislation
is necessary for the improvement of af-
fairs or the happiness and welfare of the peo-
pie. and at the same time a candidate for
chief executive, could certainly express them
in an off-hand way at least. If candidate
for any position believed he could do any
thing for his state and people, and believed
the success of his party and its principles
would be beneficial, he would be glad to ad-
dress his fellow citizens and show to them the
blessings expected to flow from the success of
his party.
Mr. Holton, however, was anprepared.
The fact is he has no policy; has no knowl-
edge of government; does not know what is
needed in the way of legislation. He couldn't
prepare speech, and that IS the reason he
acas unprepared. He knows nothing to say,
and is the most unfit man ever presented for
the Office of Governor in Maryland, or per-
haps in any state. If vanity were a qualifica-
ton, Mr.. Holton would be pre-eminently
fitted, and that vanity cropped out, in thetwo
or three sentences he did utter. Speaking OF
his own election he said-'.i think it would
be the best thing that has happened to the
state of Maryland for long time" There
is perhaps not another man in Maryland with
sufficient vanity and assurance to make such
declaration.
