(Tljc Cojistitntionfllist AUGUSTA, GA..Z Saturday Morning, September 11,1875. The Ohio Campaign and Its Results. It is a pity the Democrats of Penn sylvania could not agree upon some bold policy with regard to the cur rency, or, failing to do that, drop the money question altogether and unite upon antagonism to Radicalism in general. Had the Ohio campaign been decided one way or the other, there would have been no difficulty in Penn - syivania ; but while the circumstances of the case are involved in some doubt, the Pennsylvania politicians are natu rally bewildered, for, with the majority of men, success is everything and prin ciples secondary objects. The people love to rally around bold men and brave principles. Hence the success of Eaton in the East and Allen in the West, during what many persons con sidered the darkest day of the Demo cracy. This timidity of the party leaders in Pennsylvania may, though we hope not, cost them dear. Now, what is the prospect in Ohio ? A correspondent writing from Cleve land in that State comprehensively passes in review the checks and balan ces in this manner: Since I emerged from the iron and coal districts of the btate, I have no doubt of the election of Allen in October. When I entered Ohio two weeks since my opinion as to the result of the contest between him and Hates inclined the other way. A tour of 1,300 miles in various sections of the State, with eyes and ears open to both po litical parties, has gradually carried me to the opposite conclusion. The wave which will bear Allen to victory, regardless of side eddies and cross currents, is opposi tion to Grants Administration and the Re publican party, and a determination that in the grand movement in that direction, commenced last year in Ohio, she will now take no step backward. This phase of the controversy is what chiefly inspires both parties to the combat. True it is, that greenbacks and Catholics have got a good deal mixed up in the fight, and all along the lines are heard rallying cries of “The Ores in the furnaces have gone out,” or ‘The Pope is trying to bag the school funds.” Nevertheless, the main conflict is a regular battle between the Republicans and the Democrats. Occurring in the year previous to the Pre sidential contest in the only doubtful State which votes for a Governor in October, this election will practically decide the coming Presidential e'oetion against the Republi can party; for if the Republicans cannot now recapture Ohio, what gieat State which went over to the Democracy last year can they reasonably expect to win back in 1876? I know the Republicans are waging this contest with these contingen cies in view; and hence the vigor, not to say desperation, wherewith they tight the battle. If, on the other hand, Hates is elected, Republican Presidential stock (and perhaps Grant stock) will instantly go up all over the Union. Another important effect would follow the election of Allen. It would instantly check, if not wholly crush, the revival of Know'-Nothingism in the country, and prevent its introduction into the Presiden tial campaign as a formidable issue. An Eastern man must travel through and care fully study Ohio just now to see how close to the margin of the Know-Nothingism of twenty years ago the Republican party is running. It has been let loose in Ohio in this campaign, and if not beaten here, will be immediately entered for the Presidential race. Somehow it so happens that it is running out here in double harness with hard money. However, I think Senator Thurman and Gov. Allen will be in at its death. The general impression among can did men of all parties is that Allen will prove victorious and overwhelm ingly so. Vice President Wilson has as good as surrendered in advance. There is a significant withdrawal of at tacks upon the standard bearer in Ohio by hard-money Democratic editors in the East. Morton virtually threw up the sponge when he fled before the currency question and started a Know Nothing crusade; and somehow the popular impression is that Hayes will quit the arena a vanquished man. The Republican oracles are casting about for other intrenchments, as if satisfied that Allen and Victory were coinci dental. They are hoping that a Dem ocratic triumph in Ohio will cause a split in the party on the money issue and so enable them to carry the coun try in 1870. But Henry Wilson has laughed at that expectation, and the Cincinnati Commercial puts another stopper on it in these words ; “ The talk about a split in the party on tile currency question is not warrant ed. When Thurman and Ewing, Hen dricks and Cary, McDonald and Allen, can occupy the stump notwithstanding the iuflation plank, it is absurd to sup pose there will be any difficulty about Democratic unity. The Democrats will unite on an evasion, as they always do.” We hope and believe they will unite, not on “ evasion,” but on grand principles which are far above legal tenders as they are above rubies. The Couritr-Journal, which has, in a half hearted way, opposed Allen, admits that, though the contest is, like all human affairs, a problematical thing, it will produce tremendous results. It says : “If Ohio goes for Allen the Ohio platform will be substantially the national platform, and much as we dissent from its tendencies, we shall support it. So will Tilden, Bayard and Thurman. The likelihood is that the race will be between Grant and Al len, and no one who wishes well to the free institutions of his country can hes itate between the Democrat and the Radical.” Heaven grant that the October sun shall shine upon Allen the conqueror, and that the Democracy, all minor dif ferences adjusted or in abeyance, shall lock shields for an irresistible and solid movement upon the very citadel of the Radical monster. Thus united and thus led, we shall sweep that hated faction from power and restore the States to something like their ancient prosperity, freedom and renown. Ead’s Jetties.—Mr. John Barward puts a spider io Mr. Eads’ pudding thus: At the time the engineers, under Gen. Grant, attempted to cut the bend of the river at Vicksburg, the New York Times published a communication that I had the honor of addressing it, demonstrating the utter impracticability of the undertaking by their manner of working; they persist ed and failed. There is about to be a gran der failure at the mouth of the Mississippi. If Eads’ should fail, he will be knock ed bar-ward, sure enough. Mississippi Affairs. While Col. Lamar is engaged incite ! arduous task of ‘‘breaking the color ' line,” both whites and blacks in his State are busily employed breaking each other’s heads. As well may the tamer of beasts go unarmed and with a swallow-tail coat—instead of the Roman gladiator’s dress—into the den of wild animals, as for the distinguish ed Representative from Mississippi to attempt to make the negro politician and white gentleman pull in the same traces without a degredation to one or the other, or without collisions such as have occurred in Ames’ pachalique. Col. Lamar is as ignorant of negro nature as if he had been born in Massa chusetts. By some hook or crook, he may gain something for his State, but his chances of worsting her, in a:iy event, are remarkably promising. To show in what sort of a muddle the State of Mississippi is politically we call attention to the following paragraph: [Vicksburg Herald.] Columbus, September 2.—The Lowndes county Radicals made a wide split to-day. Two conventions assembled and put two tickets in the field. One convention, repre senting the negro color liners, nominated Gleed, a negro, for sheriff, a negro for treasurer, two negroes for the Legislature, and the rest of the ticket is composed of white men. The other convention nomi nated a white ticket. Lewis was nominated for sheriff, Gen. Eggleston for chincery clerk, D. L. Wallace for circuit clerk and R. R. Spiers, a Democrat, for county treas urer. The remainder of the ticket is left to be completed by the election of Democrats. Both factions are bidding high for the white vote, and the 'Democrats talk of comp ro promising with one faction. Index. Negroes and their vile allies “bidding for white votes !” God in heaven! what has become of the South, and when will Mississippi’s humiliation have an ending? And now, to complete the picture, Ames, who has desired the death of thirty or forty negroes to help the Republican party, shrieks out for United States bayonets, and it may be to some purpose. General Grant, since the snubbing he got from New York, on the third term, as he has been the reci pient of the same from every other State save South Carolina, may not be disposed to help out the Republican party which has been so indisposed to help him:; but this need not be re.ied upon entirely, and he may cons.der that a storm is his best element, no matter what the Republican convention leaders think of him or his aspirations. We are afraid that Colonel Lamar’s color ideality is a blunder of the first magnitude, but trust that, even amid such mistakes, Mississippi may be re deemed. The Sources of Wealth.— The St. Louis Republican, in the following statement, makes some striking com parisons : “The gold and silver pro duct of the United States in 1871 was 872,000,000. Of this California fur nished §20,300,000; Nevada, §35,452.000; Utah §5,900,000; Colorado, §4,191.000; Montana, §3,439,000, and Idaho, §1,880,- 000. We exported nearly the whole of this product abroad to pay for what we imported. We sometimes flatter our selves that our gold and silver mines are an important source of wealth, but if we compare their yield with that of some other products, the mistake will be detected. Our corn crop is worth four times as much as our gold and silver crop; our wheat crop five times as much; cotton crop more than three times as much, and our hay crop feur times as much. California is called the Golden State, but with all its gold and silver product it would be a poor State but for its wheat crop. California’s agriculture is a much more prolific source of wealth than its mines.” And it may be added that, without the cot ton crop, the gold and silver of this country would be drained by Europe much more rapidly thdu they now are, and the “credit of the nation” would not command any more respect than that of Turkey. The Naked Truth—lt is said that Mark Twain was once required to give a faithful description of a person of his acquaintance, and he was previous ly assured that no matter what he said no harm should come to him, so that he “spoke the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help him God.” Here is the result: A long-legged, vain, light weight 'Ullage lawyer, from New Hampshire. If he had brains in proportion to his legs, he would make Solomon seem a failure; if his mod esty equaled his ignorance, he would make a violet seem stuck up; if his learning equaled his vanity, he would make Von Humbolt seem as unlettered as tl e back side of a tombstone; if his statu re were proportioned to his conscience, he would be a gem for the microscope; if his ideas wero as large as his words, it would take a man three months to walk around one of them; if an audience wero to con:ract to listen as long as ho would talk, that audi ence would die of old ago; and if he were to talk until he said something, he would still be on his legs when the las - ; trump sounded; and he would have cheek enough to wait till the disturbance was over and go on again. As the candid Mark still lives and prospers, we know for a certainty that the guarantee of speaking the truth with impunity was observed in good faith. Moody.— Mr. Moody, the great evan gelist, has commenced his work in the United States. He preached at, North field, Mass., on September 4th. Among other things he said: “If the Angel Gabriel should come down upon you this moment, you should ask him not for wealth, but for eternal life." Wise words, but how few really would ask the Angel for-the boon of heaven if it implied a life of poverty and sorrow upon earth? It is related of an Italian friar that he had contrived to bow his congregation to the very dust of re pentance. While they were prostrate on the ground, he cried out, ‘Ye who have sincerely repented hold up your right arms.” Every arm went up straightway. Then the monk added, in a terrible voice, “Gabriel of the Flaming Sword! I call upon thee to smite off the arms of all who are not willing to abandon even the smallest of their sins!” Every arm instinctive ly and with a quick jerk came down. We rejoice to know that Mr. Moody’s expeiience has borne better fruit. Fame.— While Mr. Disraeli and other distinguished persons are engaged in the attempt to raise funds for the erec tion of a monument to Lord Byron; and while Mrs. Stowe has thought it worth while to make an effort to blacken his memory—there is a curious paragraph going the rounds which shows that a dead worthy may fill the universe with his works and yet be practically ignored at the very spot where he goes to dust. A recent visitor to Nottinghamshire, thus writes: In the course of a summer ramble we once visited Hucknall, near Newstead, the burial place of Lord Byron. On the sexton appearing we intimated we had come to see the famous tomb there, which doubtless many people visited. “Oh! crowds, sir, especially of a Saturday afternoon.” And he led us over a well-worn path to a stone erected by Ben Caunt, the pugilist, over the grave of two of his children. Ben, ac cording to the sexton, was a great man with his hands, but we found he had little in terest in the author of “Chiide Harold,” whose remains lie in the chancel of the lit tle village church. The chances of Ralston having a costly memorial shaft are better than those of Byron ; and it was only by an accident that the effigy of Boss Tweed did not, while that criminal was in the flesh as he is now, adorn Central Park. Should Mr. Disraeli fail in his endea vor, let him, in imitation of his re nowned father, write a book on the “Curiosities of Fame’s Tombstones.” It would be a charming book, and oh, so very commendable to human na ture ! CkErHE.—Attention is ealled by one of our contemporaries to the fact that “among the good things said about Gcethe on the recent anniversary of his birth, it is strange to see so few allusions to his personal beauty. In his ode Mr. Bayard Taylor says of Fate : “ Proud beauty to the boy she gave. A lip that bubbled song, yet lured the bee. An eye of light, a forehead pure and free.” His mother wrote: “ There skated my son Wolfgang like an arrow among the groups. The wind had reddened his cheeks and blown his hair. I threw him ray crimson, furred cloak, he fastened it up with the golden clasps in front, threw the train over his arm, and away he went over the ice, like a son of- the gods ! Anything so beautiful never was seen, and I clapped my hands with joy.” Lewis says : “He reached Strasburg on the 21 of April, 1770. He was now turned to twenty, and a more magnificent youth never entered the Strasburg gates. He was likened to an Apollo. When he entered a restaurant the people laid down their knives and forks'to look at him.” Pic tures and busts give but a very feeble indication of that which was most striking in his appearance. In stature he was above middle size, his presence imposing and majestic, his head, with his liberal features and lustrous brown eyes, rested on a fine muscular neck— indeed, ho was none of “Nature’s jour ney-work.” And yet ho married an illiterate woman who frequently got drunk. Discovered. During the Summer months the Baltimore basin has had more stinks than the city of Cologne. Science and money have been employed to discover the cause of this dreadful nuisance. The failure of Stirling, Ahrens & Cos., and consequent stop page of work at the Sugar Refineries, which empty into the stream, may be said to have solved the riddle. The Sun says : “ The water is no longer black and offensive, but looks and smells more like the basin did years ago, when the boys used to bathe in it, and the disciples of Isaak Walton dropped the white perch a line. It is the opinion now of some of the peo ple whose business lies in that neigh borhood that if all the sugar refineries were to take a rest of a week or two the basin would behave itself as it used to do, when people never thought of turning up their noses at it.” Be hold how Providence brings good out of evil! Had Stirling & Ahrens pros pered, Baltimore people never might have known why large sections of the city smelt like a charnel house. Insect Notes.— The true inwardness of a persistent insect is thus stated by somebody to us unknown : People who are afflicted with mosquitoes will be pleased to know that the buzzing wherewith the diligent insect enlivens the night is the way in which he calls his mate. Ho does not make his noise in sheer malice, hut he sings to his sweetheart, and theso curious creatures listen to each other with their feelers. The antennie vibrate to dif ferent notes, and so the delicate creatures commune with each other in darkness. . As the female is the blood-sucker, what is the use of her calling that mate? Does she do it on the same principle that a hen cackles when she lays an egg, or out of “pure cussedness ?” Bots.— A friend of the human race and lover of the horse professes to have discovered that the juice of tan sy is “dead-shot for bots.” May be so, but we are losing faith in specifics. The Scientific American swore that red pepper drove away ants ; but anybody who wants to be “ the victim of mis placed confidence ” can make the ex periment. Doos the man or woman live who can confidently assert that he or she knows a certain remedy for the invasion of pismires, short of burning down the house ? Crop Statistics. —The Nashville American sums up the world’s grain production thus: The statistics of 1874 show that Russia produced 460,000,000 bushels of wheat; France, 286,000,000, and the United States the same. Rus sia exported one-eight of her grain, the United States one-fourth, and France none. Tne United States, however, grow an enormous amount of corn, which the others do not. Another can didate for cereal honors comes for ward. South Australia this year an nounces that it has 6,000,000 bushels of surplus wheat, 1,400,000 of which have already been exported, while the re mainder is ready for shipment. Trumps.— -The Philadelphia Times wants to know “what are trumps in Massachusetts.” If the local papers are to be credited, tramps are trumps about now, PERSONAL. | The fellow who wrote tin* obituary of Summer the other day has lial it made hot for him ever sinco.
