Tb* Ute Indians refuse to associate with the Chinese. This is enough to make a Mongolian blush. The Republicans in Wisconsin are dig ging cyclone pits. They expect another storm about Nov. i. The Republicans never found out how great a scoundrel Carl Schurz was until he came out for Cleveland. A memorial shalt to the cavalry is to be erected at Gettysburg. It will not be dec orated with a canteen of buttermilk in bas relief. Victoria is only nominally Queen of England and Empress of India, she is not burdened much more with the cares of State than any other old lady in that country. The country is in a bad fix when an ex sailor, who had made a fortune shear ing lambs in Wall put on high and . lgeon airs because mar ried a coachman. Trie oldest fox hunter in died last week. Throughout a long acT eventful life he never committed the folly of galloping over tbs country in chase ot an anise-6eed bag. Is there really some serious hitch in tha* S>uth Carolina cotton picking ma chine, or what is the matter? Several pianters on this side ot the river are anxious to see It at work. If the Republicans have to dump a few hundred thousand dollars into Pennsylva nia in order to make sure of its electoral vote, wbat will they do for funds to carry the really doubtful States? Butler probably is considerably helped up since he got the promise ol two votes in New Tork. There seems to be no pros pect of turning editor Dana and lawyer Grady away from the rag-bat>y ticket. Col. Cole has about decided to build the railroad from Chattanooga to Point Look out ot standard gauge. If he does this it will enable tourists to go direct from their homes to the top of the mountain in pal ace cars without change. • One of the funniest things in the cam paign is, that just as the Blaine organs got in a good way abusing Hamilton Fish, under the supposition that he had deter mined to support Cleveland, he announced that he was still loyal to Blaine. O'Donovan Rossa is not for Blaine after all. In a recent number of the United Irishman he declares his position very emphatically, and says in effect that no Irish newspaper has gone over to the Re publicans unless it has been bought un. The New Haven police lead the van for a disposition to preserve decorum. A day or two ago they arrested a corpse and ran it in to the barracks for doing such an im proper thing as lying down in the park. The corpse hail been fired out of a saloon for dying on the floor. While nearly everbody up North growled about the hot wave, there was one class that was thankful for it, and prayed for it to wave as long as it wanted to. The grape growers report the crop phenome nal, and the hot weather caused the fruit to ripen well and evenly. The Chinese do not jump into the war with France with much spirit. They are said to be slow movers. This may be true so far as advance movements are concerned, but the celerity with which they made retrograde movements in Ton quin is now a matter of history. Gen. Beauregard will have an illus trated article in Century soon on the first battle or Manassas. He ought not to fail to have a diagram of the stampede of the politicians who went out from Washing ton in their carriages to see Gen. Scott have a little fun with the enemy. The report circulated in New York last week that President Arthur had been overcome with heat has been authorita tively contradicted. This was entirely unnecessary. The President has kept remarkably cool this summer, especially ever since the Republican pow-wow at Chicago. The merchants aud property owners on Broadway, New York, appear to favor a railroad on that street. It is probable if the railroad should be built that the thou sands of vehicles that throng the street will be prohibited from using it for a thoroughfare, while the cars will facili tate travel very much. New York hopes to see and hear from all four Presidential candidates—not mentioning Mrs. Lockwood—before long. Cleveland will deliver an address there soon. Butler was to have delivered his eame old speech in Union Square yester day evening, and Blaine and St. John are expected to be heard from towards the last of the month. Votes, it is thought, will be worth sls each in Ohio and Indiana in the Presiden tial election. Twenty thousand floaters in each State at that price, together with what usually sticks to the hands of the soap committees, would knock the spots out of a million dollar bill. Messrs. Elkins and Dudley may take due notice and govern themselves accordingly. The railway passenger agents have the boss letter of the period. It is signed by “Eighty Thousand Travelers,” and begs them to issue general traveling mileage cards, good on any road in the country. It is proposed to issue 2,500 and 5,000 mile cards, to be sold for SSO ftnd SIOO respec tively, the rates corresponding with those now charged shippers on mo||p}oads. The coupons are to be seagpyxbe general and the manner PJRnis feasible and will be eventually adopted. It would be a great convenience to traveling men, and would do away with the complicated excursion ticket system in many instances. The New York Tribune is disturbed by the great Democratic gains in the factory towns of Maine, and feebly explains that the people were deceived. It says fur ther that “the mills were closed by Demo cratic agitation of the tariff,” whereupon the Evetting Post of that city remarks that “there was some tariff agitation in the last Congress, when a bill to reduce * t jj e tariff to the point>jfcich a Republican commission had to a pre vious Congress failed to pass because of Democratic opposition. Is the effect of that agitation still felt, and is it that which has closed three-fifths of the iron furnaces in the country? Is it that also which is at the bottom of the mining troubles in the Hocking valley of Ohio?” Swinging Around the Circle. Blaine apparently has great confidence in what his admirers call his magnetism The good-sized majority which the Re publicans had in Maine is attributed largely to Blaine’s presence and manage ment. The country will accept, proba bly. without question, the statement that to Blaine's management the Republican success in Maine was due, especially since the evidence seems to be overwhelm ing that the victory was purchased. It is not a difficult matter to carry a State with money. The first thing to be determined is the number of votes needed, and the next is to bargain for them. Blaine is not unfamiliar with bargains in polities. In fact, his bargains appear to have turned out very advantageouslj for him. They turned out so well that he has a very handsome bank account to draw upon when it is desirable to put monev where it will do the most good. Y -very considerable sum was put in Maine, and now it is announced that Blaine will soon start for Ohio. He. doubtless, sees where he can make him self useful there. He is not accustomed, as he himself has said In one of the famous Mulligan letters, to be a deadhead in any enterprise. Blaine, no doubt, hopes that his pres ence in Ohio will stir up some of the en thusiasm that was once felt there for Gar field. It is admitted, even by Republicans, that the indifference as to the result of the October election, particularly in the Western Reserve—Garfield’s old district —is in striking contrast to the enthusiasm which prevailed there in the Republican ranks in ISSO, and in previous campaigns. It remains to be seen if money will do as much in Ohio as it did in Maine. It is probable that Blaine and his managers will find difficulties in their way in the Octobei State which were not noticeable in the September State. It seems, also, that Blaine is to be taken to Indiana and given a chance toexert his magnetic powers on the voters of that State. Before he goes there, however, he ought to answer the interroga tories which have been filed in the libel suit which he brought against the Indianapolis Sentinel. Of course, his delay in answering is not to be construed as indicationg that he can not truthfully answer them without dam. aging his case, but it excites a suspicion that he is not so prompt to enter upon a trial of the suit as he was to bring it. It is a question whether it is a good policy for a Presidential candidate to ex hibit himself over the country. Those who adopted that plan were defeated. Douglass, Seymour, Greeley and others tried it. but not with success. It be that their speeches con tributed nothing to their defeat. The titneslTo?- yhiC-'S seems to indicate, however, that'ca^r^Ernie*; is not in keep ing with the can didate. In deciding pait in a political canvass customspfrears to hare very properly drawn the line so as to just include Vice Presidential candi dates. A Quiet Time in Georgia. There is no prospect of any political ex citement in this State this year. In a few of the counties there may be a little stir over local offices, but it will not be sufficient to attract attention outside of the localities interested. There is, prac tically. no opposition to the Democratic party. The Republicans, knowing that thev have no chanc. whatever of carrying the state for Blaine, will not take the trouble to have the State canvassed, and the Democrats are so certain that they will have everything their own way that they will not bother themselves about forming campaign clubs and holding po litical meetings. In some respects this condition of af lairs is a source of satisfaction, and in others it is to be regretted. It is a source or satisfaction for one thing, because the attention of laborers on farms and planta tions will not be drawn away from their work, and, for another, because there will be wanting the demoralization and excesses that are closely connected with exciting political campaigns. The absence of the stirring scenes of an exciting campaign are to be regretted, be cause the people are apt to lose their in terest in political matters, and to be sat isfied to permit inferior men to adminis ter their local, State and national affairs. In the country districts the people depend very largely upon the campaign orators for their knowledge of the issues involved in the contest, and for their impressions of the qualifications of the candidates. Some haven't the time and many haven’t the inclination to read the newspapers closely, and. therefore, when they haven’t a chance to hear campaign speeches they know very little of what is going on in the world of politics. It is a good thing for the people to hear taeir political leaders discuss live politi cal issues aud show up the weak points of the policies of the opposing parties. Georgia has had her years of political ex citement, when almost every voter felt a deep interest in current political events, but she is destined to have a quiet time tbi3 year. There will not be a contest even for the State House offices. The great political orators will devote their talents to making converts in other States. Georgia will attend almost exclusively to gathering her crops. Production and Consumption of Cotton. In reviewing the cotton movement and crop of 1883-84 the Commercial and Finan cial Chronicle gives some very interesting statistics on quite a number of points. The statistics relating to the consump tion and production of cotton, for in stance, contain very valuable informa tion. The annual increase in the consump tion of cotton is very steady. Expressed in 400-lb. bales the average amount con sumed each year, throughout the world, during the six years ending in 1871-72 was 5,419,000 bales. The average amount consumed each year during the six years ending in 1877-78 was 6,868,000 bales, and the amount consumed each year during the six years ending in 1883-84 was 8,708,- 000 bales. It is interesting to note the relative in crease of consumption in the localities where cotton is consumed. From 1866-67 to 1871-72 the annual consumption in Great Britain was 2.646,000 bales; on the continent 1.703,000 ba! s, and in the Uni ted States 822,000 bales. From 1872-73 to 1877-78 the annual consumption in Great Britain was 3,116.000 bales: on the conti nent 2,271,000 bales, and in the United States 1,481,000 bales. From 1878-79 to 1883-84 the annual consumption in Great Britain was 3,496,000 bales; on the conti nent 3,074.000 bales, and in the United States 2,138,000 bales. From these figu res it appears that th • increase in consumption has been much greater in this country than anywhere else. It is noticeable that our manufacturing capacity increases as our cotton crop increases. The world’s supply of cotton for the past 18 years is shown by the following figures. The bales are rated at 400 pounds. The average crop in the United States from 1866 to 1872, was 3,167,000 bales, and in all other places 2,337,000 bales. The average crop iu the United States from 1872 to 1878 was 4,771,000 bales, and in all other localities 2,022,000 bales. From 1878 to 1384 the average crop in the United States was 6,721,000 bales, and in all other localities 2,015,000. The increase in the world’s supply of cotton, therefore, was furnished by this country. It is highly probable that the contributions to the world’s supply of cotton bv other coun tries will remain about stationary in the future. The demand for cotton is all the time increasing. The increase must be sup plied by this country. It is reasonable to suppose that within the next six years our cotton crop will reach 8,000,000 bales. The French Government and the Pope are not on very good terms. The new French divorce law is not at all favored by the Vatican. The Pope and England dissolved partnership on a different phase of the same question. Don’t everybody rush for the tripod be. cause it is stated that 25 years ago Majah Blaine was a poor editor and is now a mil lionaire. Several poor editors who start ed ad astra by the same route Blaine did, have brought up in the State prisons. A Crime that Mast be Cheeked. The arrest of a colored man at Albany, Ga.—who, up to the date of bis arrest, had borne a respectable cbatacter —charged w ith being at the bead of a secret society, the members of which were engaged in wrecking the train that was taking the Albany military to Dawson on Aug. 24, is an event of more than passing import ance. The military were moving under orders of the Governor to insure the en forcement of the law in the case of the execution of a criminal.. The crime for which the criminal was to suffer death was one of the most heinous known. In stead of assisting the authorities in en forcing the law, these colored people at tempted to murder those who were sent to assist in enforcing the law. The press of the country contains almost daily accounts of fiendish assaults upon white women and girls, and pro bably but a small number of the attempts to commit this crime is given to the public. The sufferers and their friends prefer to hide the nameless shame. In many instances one crime is followed by another. The helpless and ruined victims are not permitted to live to tell the horri ble story of their wrongs. The South is the scene of most cases of this crime, but the North and West are also sufferers. The mystery of the mutilated body of beautiful Ettie Watson, which was for weeks the horror of New Jersey, has been solved by the confession of her negro murderer. The latest outrage of this kind was in Florida, and resulted in the death of the lady and the hanging of her murderer. Georgia, however, leads all the States in the frequency with which the crime of rape is committed within her borders. Twenty-four cases of this crime are known to have occurred since Janua ry last. It is impossible to estimate how many have been concealed. The fearful penalty of the law does not seem to be any protection against the lust of negro brutes. In several Instances when an rested these criminals have not only con fessed the crime with which they were charged, but others which, until then, had been unknown except to those who were the sufferers. It is almost too much to exptect of human nature to try such brutes in the cold and formal way de manded by the law and the rules of court. A short rope and no mercy is the natural inclination of those who capture such criminals or who are sufferers by their acts. The popular verdict is for their prompt execution. The people of Georgia, however, in the 24 cases referred to, ex cept in two instances, have quietly al lowed justice to take its course instead of taking the law into their own hands. Every decent white and colored man is interested in upholding the laws, but if the punishment of such crimes is to be interfered with by negro societies and ne gro mobs, there will soon be a condition of affairs that will permit very little mercy to be shown to those charged with the crime of rape. Lynch law, as much as it is deprecated by every civilized com munity, will supersede the law adminis tered by court and jury, even though the innocent, by mistake, may sometimes suf fer for the deeds of the guilty. The Etlcn Convention. The Senatorial Convention at Eden yes terday seems to have tried to see how many ballots it could take without being exhausted. It certainly made no progress towards accomplishing the work it had in hand. The friends of Chatham’s candidate, knowing as they did the temper of the delegates, would have acted with more wisdom if they had adopted the majority insteadof the two-thirds rule. At least, one of the delegates opposed to Chatham’s candidate expressed that opinion, and it is probable that he voiced the sentiments of all who opposed Chatham’s choice. With the majority rule a choice would have been made on the first ballot. Now it is not certain that the real choice of either the majority or of two-thirds will lie nominated. A compromise candidate will probably be the result of the conven tion’s work. • The country delegates ought not to feel aggrieved at the desire of the city dele gates to name the candidate. The city has so much more at stake that it seems reasonable that the city ought to have the naming of the Senator. The indications are that a decision will be reached to-day before as many ballots are taken as were taken yesterday. CUKKfcXT COMMENT. Some Good Words for Tammany. Washington Star (Dem.). Tammany existed and wielded a potent sway in the days when the party of Jefferson bore the name “Republican;” hence the dual ehara terof the title itjetill wears. Its Re publicanism is that of a Jefferson and his disciples, not that of a Grant, a Hayes or a Blaine. A Great Political Blnnder. Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem.). Lulu Hurst, the magnetic girl, has made $lO,OOO out of her magnetism. Taking into account the short length of time she has been in the business, Mr. Blaine hasn’t made more out of his magnetism than this Georgia maiden. The Equal Rights party evidently committed a blunder when it nominated Relva Lockwood and overlooked Lulu. Gen. Butler’s Suicidal Rope. Boston Post (Dem.). Gen. Butler’s journey through the West is most remarkable, both lor the crowds that throng to hear him and for the effect that his speeches produce among the people.— Nets York Sun. It was just so in Massachusetts last fall, and yet, if he had attended to the State’s business and not made a single speech he would have been re-elected. Give the old man all the rope he wants. , Mulligan tho Modern Damocles. Xeic York Evening Post ( fnd. Rep.). \\ hy is Mulligan still treated with so much respect by the Blaine newspapers' We have not seen a single attack on him, and yet he is the real author of all this woe. There have been dozens of articles on George William Curtis, but compared to Mulligan as a fountain of Blaine sorrow, he ia but a rill to a mightv river. We hope, therefore, the brethreu will take up Mulligan. Asa subject t neither Curtis, nor Schurz, nor any of the Pharisees can hold a candle to him. He is as full of meat as he can be. He ought to be attacked and attacked without mercy, an 1 if he is we think we can promise what the (toys call "lots of fun.” Gen. Hawlev began the work at New Haven, bnt the newspapers must take it up. ITEMS OF INTEREST. The effect of cheap interior telegraphy has been felt most happily in France, where the number of telegrams has multiplied in the most extraordinary manner. Last year there were fifty-eight telegrams for each ICO inhab itants. Bishop Coxe, of Western New York, says that during his twenty years of observation in that field there have been some improve ments in religion and morality, but the in crease of lmiucty and infidelity is, on the whole, appalling. "The most blasphemous publications are circulated, frightful atheism is uttered, and gross licentiousness abounds.” Locusts have lately descended like a storm upon the central provinces of Spain, and in Cindal Real every municipal district has been visited by the scourge. When on the wing the locu-ts obscure the sun like a cloud, and in some places trains have been obliged to wait until the track was cleared. The winged pests leave hardly a green thing in the dis tricts upon which they have swept down in force. This anecdote took a prize of XI in an Eng lish weekly paper: “I was out at a small din ner party one evening recently. A boy, evi dently from the green grocer’s shop, tad been engaged to do the waiting. When he placed two dishes of tarts before the hostess, she, probably thinking it not correct to know what was coming, asked: ‘What are these, James?’ Whereupon the boy, pointing first to one dish and then to the other, replied: ‘Them’s a penuy each, and Them’s two for three half pence.’ ” The Paris Prefecture of Police has just issued anew order to improve the sanitary condition of lodging houses. It is forbidden to let chambers which are not of the regula tion height and do not supply a certain quan tity of air to each person. Rooms with more than four beds must possess a chimney, or other means of ventilation. There is a pro hibition against letting cellars in lodging houses, where inmates are incommoded by having entire families in subterranean holes, without light aud air. A corps of special in spectors is charged with the execution of this ordinance. The animals in the Central Park menagerie suffered greatly during the hot weather, even the tropical beasts and birds feeling the heat much more than In their native jungles. The fur-bearing animals and the eagles were most affected. The former, however, had fa cilities for bathing which were denied to the latter, and the Polar bear was consoled for the absence of his native icebergg by being cooled off every hour with a refreshing stream of water. Though the monkeys are said to have enjoyed the heat, the fact that they did not exhibit their usual activity seems to indi cate that they, too, experienced the feeling of depression which was the common lot of am mated nature, both within and without the menagerie, during the torrid term. Sons this ago a number of students of tho “Palatia” Society of the University of Stras bourg, while on an excursion in the Black Forest, kicked np a row in a public house at Durbach, where thsy found a number of ex- I cursionists. The thug got wind and was severely comments on by a Strasbourg paper. The AuWiiu'i* (students’ select council) was summoned, and at it one Hettner severelv de nounced the conduct of the students at Dur bacii. This led to some students challenging him to a duel with swords. He stid he hadn’t the time to practice with such a weapon, but offered to fight with pistols. This was re fused. The “Palatia” in consequence de clared him disqualified for membership. The University Board annulled this decree, but Hettner, a prey to the false sentiment which exercises such a tvrsnnv in German universi ties. killed himself. The event has excited grave comment in Strasbourg, and the univer sity authorities have decided to dissolve the l’alatia Society. Mr. Emsos has grown somewhat stout these last three years, and is no longer the bony alchemist he was when he held his mid night vigils, wrestling with the obstinate cat tery at Menlo Park, and with lunches of for tuitous pastry summoned the demon of indi gestion. I asked him if he should go to Philadelphia to witness the fine electrical show there. “Yes,"’ he said, “probably; as soon as I get my new phonograph finished. I have now in the works far the finest talking machine ever made. It is double grooved and will receive and utter two voices at once, and as it runs by electricity and is regulated to the desired speed it will deliver its message exactly as it was spoken. One prime trouble with the old mach r.e was that the pitch and accents could not be preserved, for the mess age was sure to be turned on and off at a dif ferent speed; so that, in singing especially, tnere w as a constant flattirg and changing of pitch which produced horrible discords. This is quite remedied in the duet phonograph, and will give some important results not attained before.” A curious c a se is before the Tribunal in Paris. A gentleman was getting down from an omnibus in a crowded thoroughfare, when he missed his footit-g. nearly fell back ward, and, to recover his balance, caught hold of another passenger. The latter, taken by surprise, also found himself in danger of falling, and, in his turn, caught hold of a woman with an infant in her arms, the upshot being that all four rolled together into the road. A heavy goods van was coming along behind, which, had it not been for the prompt action of the omnibus conductor, who seized the horse's head, would have run over some of the prostrate forms. As it was, the gentle man who was the original cause of the acci dent, escaped with a few trifling bruises; the other male passenger falling on him was not hurt at all, and the infant was equally fortu nate; but its mother had her arm broken, and sustained other severe injuries. Which of the two srentlemen should pay damages is the question—the one who caught hold of her or the one who caused him to do so by catching hold of him. The sealflsheries in the northwestern part of Alaska are controlled by the Alaska Com mercial Company. The contract stipulates that not more than 100,000 seals a year shall be killed, for which the company pays the Terri tory an annual fee ot $55,000, besides $2 for each skin shipped from the Territory, and 50 cents a gallon for seal oil; also, that the com pany shall annually furnish free to the in habitants 25.000 dried salmon, 00 cords of fire wood, a sufficient quantity of salt, and to maintain 6uch public schools as are needed. All others are prohibited from killing in Alaska anv otter, mink, marten, sable, or fur seal. Every summer trading schooners, as they are styled, go out with the avowed pur pose of meeting the whaling fleet, and bring ing in the sperm oil. They return with large barrels, which are entered at the Ounalaska custom house as oil, and are immediately sent to san Francisco. The Captain of the man of-war stationed at Sitka, speaking of the matter, says: "I would just like to overhaul one or two of those vessels and find out whether the oil contained in those barrels runs out or spreads out flat, and has hair on one side.” HEIGHT BITS.

John W. Stevenson, of Ken tucky, who has been under medical treatment in the East for some time, has served several terms in the Lower House of Congress and one term as Senator, was President of the two Democratic National Conventions which nominated Buchanan and Hancock for Presi dent. and was elected Governor of his State hy 89,000 majority. Col. Bachelder has made arrangements for an important historical conference of veterans of Gettysburg on Oct. 1 and 2. Tho Battlefield Memorial Association has decided to buy the land extending from the huge hol low of rocks at Devil’s Den to the Peach Orchard. It was a line of fire and death in the second day’s battle, and now a driveway is to be laid out where the havoc was worst. Seventy-five regiments are being invited to revisit the field to re-mark with historical ac curacy their positions. State Politics. C. A. King has announced himself a candi date for re-election to the office of Sheriff of Monroe county. Monroe Loster and W. J. Hollon were nom inated for the lower house by the Pike County Republicans Saturday. It takss Pulaski county to get up a primary election. In the recent contest for the nomi nation of a Representative over 1,000 votes were polled, all white Democrats. Greensboro Herald: The Senatorial Conven tion of this district met at Crawfordville last Fi iday. Eighty-two ineffectual ballots were taken, after which the convention adjourned sine die. Mass meetings of the Democracy of the several counties have been held for the purpose of selecting delegates to another con vention to be held Sept. 19. Of the manygood men in the district it is hoped that the con vention can unite on one to bear the standard of the party in the approaching election. ROSSA CUT FOR CLEVELAND. His Paper Advocate* the Election of a Democratic President All the Irish, says O’Donovan Rossa’s United Irishman, are going for the Re publican party. So say the Irish papers that are bought up. We make bold to tell the Republican party the big mistake they make in supposing that because they purchase a few newspapers they pur chase the Irish vote. The Democrats are becoming united on the Presidential can didate, and it is very likely the Democrats will win this time. The country seems to be tired of the rule of the Republican party. During Its twenty-four years of administration the character of the nation at home and abroad has fallen so low that the name of “American citizen” is a thing sptoken of only with contempt. We have seen this Republican adminis tration give England permission to arrest Irishmen in the city of New York, and to hold them in prison there because Eng land “suspected” those Irishmen bad committed some political offense in Ire land. We have seen the Republican ad ministration in Washington erant war rants for the arrest of P. J. Sheridan in New York because England “suspected’’ that he was connected with the killing of two of the English Governors in Ireland. We have seen the Republican administra tion in Washington give the New York post office into the hands of English spies, that those spies may have the run ot let ters passing through the post. We see England doing everything she likes to do with this Republican administration of ours and naturally and instinctively we find ourselves in the humor to arrest Eng land’s march through the channels of the nation’s life. We have a lively recollection of every administration of the Republican party during the last six terms, and from the first term to the last term—from the day Gen. Michael Corcoran was court-mar tialed for refusing to parade his regiment through the streets of New York in honor of England’s Prince of Wales, to the day the present President honored the Queen of England by presiding at the opening of the Brooklyn bridge on her birthday, we have seen nothing but toadying to En gland and Englishmen. That salutation to the English flag at Y'orktown looked like an invitation to England to lay her wires to take charge of the coun ry again; it was an insult to the memory of our martyred dead; and for no other cause but because of that insult and outrage, no American, with Irish blood or any other manly blood in bis veins, should vote for keeping in power a party who thus outrage the sacred memory of those who fought and fell for th ; freedom we enjoy. BLAINE’S TRIP TO OHIO. The Magnetic Statesman to be Made a Part of Cincinnati’s Big Show: Other interests, says a Washington special, besides those of the Republican party are to be benefited by the proposed visit of Blaine and Logan to Cincinnati. Indeed, Information has been received here to the effect that the Republican leaders did not originate the matter, but that it was started as a scheme to put dol lars into the pockets ot various shrewd business men, both Democrats and lie publicans. The parties originally most in terested in securing the presence of the candidates were the managers of Cin cinnati’s big show, of the rail roads running into that city, and ol the organization known as the Society of the Cincinnatus. The latter is a recently formed association, whose object is to manage a street show ot about the same character as the New Orleans Mardi Gras testival. It occurred to somebody that il Blaine and Logan could be persuaded to visit Cincinnati they would add immensely to the attrac tions of the exposition and the street parade and would draw an extra crowd of spectators, all of whom would have to pay for their sight-seeing. Steps were at once put the brilliant scheme in to execution. The leaders of the Blaine forces were approached, and they fell in with the project at once. No arguments were needed to convince them of the de sirability of a visit from the magnetic statesman. Mr. Blaine’s trip to Ohio is thus to serve the double purpose of en riching the exhibition, the Society of the Cincinnatus, aud the railway managers, and giving the Republican leaders a chance to work up a boom for the candi dates in a place where such an institu tion is sadly needed. THE CHOLERA IN NAPLES. The Rapidity with Which the Victims Die. The attack of the cholera on Italy, says a New York Sun dispatch, is now admit ted to be far severer than that on Franco. Almost incredible stories are told of the rapidity with which it has carried off its victims. In some families four or five members have been swept off together. An old woman and a boy, falling together in the street in Naples, were both taken up dead; a lady seized with vomiting while at mass died on reaching home. In fact, death in many cases has occurred within ten minutes of the first symptoms. Many persons have died within three or four hours, and the fatal cases have rarely lasted more than live or six hours. The plague has led, according to all ac counts, to a revival of religious feeling so strong that the Archbishop himselt has had to discourage religious proces sions, as tending to increase disease. The gambling spirit has also received a great impetus. Thus, one day fifty-two mothers rushed to a school and took away fifty one children, and everybody played these numbers in the government lottery, anil all won. On another day the numbers 3, 4 and 22 corresponded to current events in the streets, and were played extensive ly, and all three came cut. The result was a loss of 2,000,000 francs by the gov ernment, a general debauch by the lucky inhabitants, and a violent Increase of the cholera. The King is the reigning hero of Europe, and George Augustus Sala, the celebrated journalist, gives as one of his many virtues that he wears in public in Rome a low-crowned hat.
