Mr. CHAIRMAN AND LADIES AND GENTLE
MEN OF THE COUNTY OF LoRAIN This is
not my first visit to your beautiful county.
THE SLAVERY QUESTION.
l recall with great pleasure the previous
visit, when was met as cordially az am to-
fore had the pleasure of seeing il, for who
does not know of the advanced stand and
great leadership which the county of St.
LOrain took in the prolonged anti
slavery struggle ICheers. 1t was
your sturdy citizens and great
institution at Oberlin that disseminated
those principles of freedom which made
this northwestern county the vanguard in the
contest with slavery. Renewed cheering. ]
That contest ended in victory. Another
is now committed to your charge, and
| to-day, IN an emphatic sense the lead =
| ership of Ohio. That is, all other questions

| Of the anti-slavery struggle, there was no
/ side issue that could divert the anti-slavery
] men Of the Western Reserve from the great
! absorbing question. and believe that no side
4 issue will now be permitted to divert you from
/ the controlling question ef the campaign.

Threatened with Dismissal.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-Blaine's even
ing organ announces that it knows 25 or
80 Republicans in the government employ
here who have determined not to go home
to vote this October. 1t then goes on to
say editorially: "And we know that we
are right when we say that true Ohio Re-
publicans will, when discharges have to
be made of Ohio men here, unanimously
demand that these shirkers be made to
walk the plank first. If they want to
vote the Democratic ticket let them go
home openly and manfUlly and do it. We
don't believe that they will be disturbed for
so doing. But If they are Republicans
they should stand by the party that has
stood by them. They have no right to OBJ
tain their bread and butter under false
pretences, nor should they lay the flatter-
ing JUNCTION to their souls that they are
not known. They are known, and we beg
leave to add, in conclusion, that party dis
cipline sometimes hurts, and hurts bad"

THE BUCHANAN CRASH.

CINCINNATI; Sent. 27.-There is consid-

ferred creditors of the firm of Buchanan
Bros, who lately made an assignment,
owing TO the preferences given certain
creditors being said TO absorb all the as
sets. 1t is thought now that the liabili-
ties will reach 100000. Suit has been
brought by Flesch & Co., of New York,
against the firm and the assignees to re-
cover possession of a quantity of gentle
mems furnishing goods and damage for
unlawful detentions. Suits have been
brought also by the New Brighton Com
pany.
Very little is now to be said in regard
to Newcombe, Buchanan & Co.'s failure.
An authoritative statement of the liabili-
ties and irregularities is not expected for
over a week. This is the day on which
nearly 100000 of taxes on over 1900 bar
rels of whisky in the Buchanan distille-
ries fall due. Banks and other parties
who have receipts on this property made
arrangements through the assignee to
pay up the tax, which was accordingly
done.
