THE CANDIDATES.

Ohio county has the peculiar hon
or of presenting 10 the Senatorial
district the candidates of both the
great political parties. Capt. Sam
+. Hill, the gallant champion of
Democracy, is 80 well and so favora-
bly, known TO the voters of the three
counties, that 10 say anything in his
praise would seem a work of superer-
rogation; still, we cannot let the OPP
portunity pas TO reiterate what We
have 50 frequently said, and what is
but an echo of the great popular APP
probation OF the act of the Beaver
Dam Convention. That the Demo
cracy was fortunate in its selection of
a candidate goes for the saving. He
Is a gentleman at once able, enlight-
ened and progressive; a trusted
and efficient public servant; a per-
feet master of forensic debate, fasci-
mating in his social intercourse, gem
ial and reliable i'm all the relations of
life, and without a peer in the SPLEEN
did genius which controls, and d.
rect. the adverse elements of the
hustings. The Democracy with a
candidate possessing every attribute
which conspires TO success, reasona-
bly, look TO a brilliant canvass and
a triumphant campaign.
His competitor, DIR. Meador, the
Republican nominee, also an Ohio
county man is a gentleman deserved
ly popular in his immediate neigh
borhood. DIR. Meador has heretofore
borne the standard of his party in
success through some hotly-contested
political battles. As neighbor and
a citizen We take peculiar pleasure
in bearing witness that DIR. Meador
is entitled to, and possesses the full
measure Of confidence of his fellow
citizens; is liberal, warm hearted and
genial in his associations; his party
could scarcely have chosen a candi-
date more likely to carry its banner
% success.
But as the rival of our chivalric
and indOmitable Hill, the nomi-
nation of DIR. Meador must be re-
garded in the light of cloves labor
lost"
Jesse :. Williams, one of Ohio
county's talented and rising young
men, is the unanimous choice of the
Democratic party for Representative.
Mr.. Williams possesses all the natur-
al attributes of a legislator. A close
student of men and measures; well
versed in State and National politics;
and having all the advantages of a
liberal education, together with
his general acquaintance with gov
ernmental machinery combined with
a mentality clear, vigorous and disci-
plined, he is peculiarly consti-
tuted to take first rank among Ken
tucky's gifted young statesmen.
Having two such gallant persevering
and untiring standard bearers a
Sam Z. Hill, and jesse $. Williams,
the conclusion that Democratic sue
cess is certain is not unreasonable.
Herschel b. Taylor, the Republic
can nominee, and the competitor of
Mr.. Williams, is a young man of
strong, native ability, possessing the
confidence of all who know him, a
gentleman of the first water, hon
orable in his dealings, and like Will
liams a hard working farmer, and
barring his politics, a gentleman
who would do honor to any position,
social or political and one who we be-
lieve would jealousy guard the peo-
pies interests.

New York Cabinet coadjutors are
moving cautiously in regard to the

their State ,as an election for governor

Democrats are united a Republican
candidate will probably be chosen.

Tammany, not Justice.

what has conferred upon poverty itself
a power, dignity, which wealth and
pomp and royalty cannot secure. The
Genius of Labor is the clarion voice
echoed from the hamlets in thousand
dales and the many cities throughout
our broad land. The Genius of Labor
has written Columbia happy and free,
as with the finger of ubiquity, on the
pure canvass of our flags wherever they
float. The Genius of Labor MARBLES in
the hum of millions of spindles, re-
peats the music i'm the rattle of myriads
of looms, chants it in the sound of the
axe and the hammer i'm legion of
workshops and reddening FORCES, sounds
it in the low bass of the mill wheels,
and prolongs 1t in our unnumbered
avenues of industry.

maxim, not because it is Roman, but
because 1t is eloquently true-"Nullam

a New Route,

The clipper-ship Oregon, Captain
Merriman, which cleared from the port
Of Philadelphia few days ago for Hio-
90, Japan, will take a new route for that
distant land, which is claimed to be o
shorter and safer course than that fol-
lowed by sailing-vessels at the present
time. Heretofore, without exception,
vessels sail to the northeast after leav-
ing Sandy Hook and the Delaware
Breakwater until favorable winds
are found, when the course is changed
to the south, rounding Cape of
Good Hope and passing near South
Australia through Polynesia's many
islands toward Japan. Captain Merri-
man, who has made many voyages to
San Francisco as master of American
ships, thinks that quicker time could be
made by doubling Cape Horn and then
steering northwest to 1900 west longi-
tude, and then, with the aid Of trade
winds, TO sail almost due west to the
Japanese coast. 1t is claimed by n.y.
drographers that this will save at least
one month and over 5000 miles. This
departure in navigation is looked upon
with great interest not only in this
country but in Europe.

me Champion Old Lady OF indiana

lCamden Ind.) Expositor.l
On Monday of last week two resi-
dents Of Camden, DR.. Camp and Mr..
Samuel Thompson, made a pilgrimage
to Russiaville for the purpose of seeing
what is said to be the oldest resident Of
Indiana, Mrs. Golfer, whose maiden
name was Perry, said to be sister
Of Commodore Perry, Of Revolution
ary renown. This old lady was born
in the State Of Delaware, in April,
1869, making her present age 10 years.
She retains all her faculties except
hearing. which is impaired to some ex-
tent. Her father was in the CONT
mental army, and became on intimate
terms with General Washington, who
visited their family after the war, and
with whom she remembers conversing on
such occasions. Think Of lady living
now who came on the stage OF action in
the time of George III. and has lived
under every President since the origin
of Government. From what our IN
formants gathered from her, her career
has been no exception to the old, old
story of a life struggle with fortune,
she being compelled in early life to per-
form all kinds of outdoor labor. Her
son, with whom she lives, and who is
himself eighty years Of age, told OF
having resped wheat by her side many
DAYS. She is said to be the oldest Me-
thodist living, having united with that
Church seventy-five years since, and
she is still member in good standing.
