The Ohio campaign has not yet
fully opened. By the first Of Septem'
Der it will be in full blast, and the
eloquence of imported stumpers
will ring throughout the confines of
the State. All that can be surmis-
ed at this distant and early day is
that it will be hot and close contest
with the advantages on the side of
the most money and greatest activ'
ity.

From the Hagerstown Herald:

From the lagerStOWn HeTUtQ:
A four-year old son of the captain
of the boat "Extenuate" fell into
the canal on Thursday at Chaney's
lock apd was drowned.
Passenger travel over the Cumber-
land Valley Railroad during the
month of July was considerably
heavier than during the same month
last year.
We learn that a fatal disease, re-
sembleing the cholera, has prevailed
to a considerable extent this season
among the poultry in various local.
tiles throughout this section, and
that many of the farmers have lost a
large number of chickens and
turkeys by the ravages of the disease.
Some farmers, it is reported, have
lost nearly their entire broods of
young chickens and turkeys.
Friday last, mishap befel Messrs.
Benjamin Beard and Frank Rich
ardson, of Clearspring, which it is
feared will proved serious to the
latter gentleman.-While on their
way to the Four'Locks in vehicle
a bolt broke, leaving the shafts down
causing the horse to kick and run
away. MI. Richardson was thrown
out, and so seriously injured that
his condition is looked upon as crit
ical. Mr.. Beard was more fortunate
however, and escaped with a few
bruises.

that fellow who characterized the

ONE of Col. Robert G.. Ingersoll's
letters written to friend sorrowing
for bereavement is going the rounds
of the moral exchanges, in which the
cratic Pagan compares death to an
inn where the weary traveller takes
his rest. The idea is not an original
one, but the use of it by Mr.. Inger-
soil freshly attests the vagueness OF
his philosophy and his constitution
al repugnance to all logical coheren.
cies. The traveller who stops at the
wayside inn for repose expects to re-
new his journey when his slumbers
are ended. If Ingersoll believes in
his smile, he believes in life after
death, but he will not say so in so
many words. He either leads his
followers toreject the idea of immor-
tally by the general drift Of his
| teachings or he skulks the whole
question by his 81 don't know" and
plumes himself on this convenient
negation. The figure of the inn takes
his fancy and he employs it with
out the slightest concern about the
logical conclusion flowing from it,.
| Neither Voltaire or Hume would ev'
er have been betrayed into such
needless use of metaphors, but these
men did have definite ideas and were
not successful charlatans. Inger-
soil borrows his imagery right and
left, but he does not always make a
prudent use of his appropriated fin
cry. His wit is fairly his own, and
no one would dispute precedence
with him in the matter of gall )"
he has an invincible corner on that
article,

THE Philipsburg Journal is one of
the best conducted papers on our ex-
change list. Among its many good ar
ticles the following is one of the best
that appeared in it's columns this long
time, and expresses our views and ex-
perlence in admirable style:
The strong attachment of subsciib-
ers to well.c Onducted newspaper is
fully confirmed by publishers. "Stop

ners in business, loose their terror aft
er paper has been established for a
term of years. So long as paper pur-
sues just, homo rable and judicious
course, meeting the want of its custo-
mers in all respects, the ties of friend
ship, between tho subscriber and the
paper are as hard to break by an out
side third party as the link which binds
old friends in business or social life.
Occasional defects and errors are over
looked by those who have become at
tached it through its perusal for
years. They sometimes become dissat-
isfied with it on account of something
which has slipped into it's columns, and
may stop taking it, but the absence OF
the familiar sheet at heir homes and
offices for few weeks becomes an in
supportable priYation, and they hasten
to take it again, and possibly apologize
for haYing it stopped. No friendship
on earth is more const ant than that
contracted by the reader of journal
which makes an honest and earnest eff.
fort to merit it's continued support.

The sTATIsTICIAN is ever dis
covering interesting facts. One Of
his late efforts Is in regard to the
number of college-bred men Ia the
three professions. 1t is shown that
90 percent Of the graduates become
doctors of medicine, q per cent min
listers and 10 9 per cent. lawyers. It
will therefore be seen that not half
SO many college graduates study
medicine as enter the law or min
istry. Another table shows that in
tbs various medical schools Of the
United States in 1880 there were
0,S7s students, as against 5.o93 in
theological schools and 1874 in law
schools. But from tio reports Oh
the various professional schools to
the United States Commissioner OF
Education it appears that of those
in attendance at professional schools
the per cent. Of students holding
degrees in art or science, was, il

9e.A per cent, and In Law 24.1 pc
cent.

TIE BOSTON Herald has inter
ested itself so much concerning
Governor Butler as TO obtain inter
views with prominent men in varjs
Gus parts of the country concerning
the probabilities of the old mans
nomination for the presidency next
year. The result Of these inter
views is demonstration Of the fact
that General Butler is not agreeable
to the democratic party, and has not.
the ghost of a chance for the nom
ination. Butler for the presidency
is purely a republican idea. No
demo 3ratic paper of prominence
has suggested such thing, nor has
any of them given the thought the
slightest encouragement. On the
other hand there is scarcely re-
publican journal that las not pro-
posed Butler for the head Of the
democratic ticket and some OF them
treat the matter just as if it had
been determined upon. Fortunately
the democrats are in 3 position to
make their own nomination, and
they Will undoubtedly select man
from their own ranks, and not take
somebody suggested TO them by the
enemy. Were Butler president he
would be a good one, but nobody
we trust, is verdant enough to i'm
agine he could be elected whatever
party might nominate him. The
democrats are going in to win, and
not only to win but to have demo
cratic administration after they
have won. & Butler administration
would be no more democratic thar
republican. Whatever feeling o
regard and respect for the bluff ole
general the democrats may entertain
since his reformation, they do no
love him we'll enough to crafty bin

THE TOWN Of Magyyille, Mis-
souri,. has cause TO be proud of its
success in dealing with the liquor
question. Some years ago it adopted
q high license. charging saloons
81 900 q year. The result was that
the gin shops were soon materially
reduced in number, and the charac-
ter Of those remaining was much
improved, while the revenue to the
corporation was greatly increased.
AS matter Of course higher prices
we're charged for drinks, and drunk.
enness became less common. Peo-
pie who drink should pay heavily
fOE che luxury. In Marysvilie,
under the new license, the drinking
classes indirectly pay the expenses
OF the municipal government, the
tax On property being merely nom
insl. Until people learn how to
control their appeiteJ and restrain
the desire for stimuIants and in
toxisants, it viii be found that high |
license is the best practical temper
