The Effect OF Ohio.

SO far as our observation goes, and in
such case result is quite directly traceable
to cause, the effect of the disaster to re
publicanism in Ohio has been to depress
the spirit of independentism in Flor
ida. Such consequence, indeed, is directly
nferential for a feeble fire attempting
to blaze is easily queuched, while a little
help would make it roaring flame. II
the republicans bad carried Ohio the
Florida independents would have been
encouraged to think that republicanism
was well worth tying to and pulling with
and might have waxed forth in open
demonstration Of fraternity. But Ohio
being lost to the party that they hoped
would assist them in getting Office, they
are now very quiet and in an uncomforta

proverbial-but it was clean fight. 1t
is worse than Quixotic TO enter conflict
with mud machine, or contest garbage
cart. We do much fear that yet another
of our esteemed contemporaries will soon
realize the soundness Of these philosophic
reflections. Moral: always keep out of
range of mud singing machine, and
yield the whole road to the scavenger's
cart. Else, thou wilt surely be de6led.
