The Ohio democracy is in line again for tUo national tight. Chairman Bargnr, who has just issued an address, says: *???We may not carry Ohio in November, but we will keep tho republicans mighty busy here. They can???t spare men or money to'help elsewhere???If they, do we will run over them.??? i ???Do you hope to carry Ohio in November???? ???We do. We fought the concentrated re publican party last week. We will only have a section to light in November. And then the independent republicans who will not vote for Blaine had no reason for bolting the state ticket. We know of hundreds of re^ publicans who are dead against Blaine, and yet who voted for Robinson. And again the prohibitionists voted for Robinson, who was a crusader, but will not vote for Blaine, who dodged the prohibition vote In Maine. They ^ will vote for St. John. And lastly we will not be run over by ruffianly United States marshals in Cincinnati in November as we were in October. I honestly believe we will carry the state.??? New York, October 20.???A citizens??? meeting was held to-niglit in the Academy of Music, of this city, fox the purpose of making nominations for mayor. Tho meeting was composed of democrats and republicans. Oswald Ottendorfor, Frederick Kirk ..Charles H. Miller, IVm. Ward, Wra. A. Colo, Horace White und Dr. HowArdCrosby were among tboso present. The building wns crowded. Ex- Mayor Wm. It. Grace waa formally nominated for mayor. New York, October 21.???Immense crowds of people assembled to-night in and about 11th and ICth streets, and Irving Place, to attend tho great Tammany ratification meeting. There was speak ing from six or seven different stands in that part of the city, but the ptluclpal meeting was In Tam many hall, which wns packed to its utmost ca pncity. Mayor Edson, who presided, read letters from a number of prominent democrats, and after a few brief remarks, introduced to the audience as the first speaker, Senator Jfayard, of Delaware, who was received by an enthusiastic greeting. Seldom has any speaker mc-t such a welcome in this city. At almost every sentence ho was interrupted by* applause, which at the clcso of his address, swelled into a great out burst of excitement and enthusiasm. He was fol- owed by ex-Govcrnor John B. Carroll, of Mary land, and cx-8etmtor Thurman, both of whom were loudly cheered. During tho speak ing a monster procession, consisting of moro than 20,COO torch-l-cnrere, marched past Tammany hall and the several outside stands, and filled that part of the city with a glare of torches and fire, works, and a rear of continuous cheering. Albany, N. Y., October 21.-- Governor Cleveland leaves Albany Monday morning next. Ho will be In Newark, N. J., Monday evening on the occasion of the democratic demonstration there. Tiro Albany I???bolanx to-night voted to arcoropouy him to Newark. The Phalanx will go HO strong On Tuesday afternoon Governor Cleveland will review the first and second dlvU- ions of the National Guard on Fifth avenue, Newark. Albany, N. Y., October 21.???Samuel Boone, Govtrr or Cleveland's assailant, in an interview to day, stated that he was a member of a Catholic family, and n thorough prohibitionist. Justice Gutman has appointed Drs. Vauduvccr and O???Lcaiy to examluc Boone as to hfs saulty. Elvira, N.

Columbia, 8. C., October 22.???[Special.]??? The political canvass In South Carolina hasup to tho present timo been devoid of any excit ing incidents rucli es marked tho memorable campaign of 1875. Tho eaino democratic ora tors are in tho field and nearly the same fs.suos nr?? involved, but no enemy can-bo dlscovorad fo dispute with tho leader* of tho democracy. The state ticket put forward by tho lato re publican convention has fullcn to pieces. The three most prominent men on tho ticket posi tively dcclino to engage in a contest which promises nothing, Btrnkcr, Melton and Cor bin, tho most brainy men in tho parly, regard tho nomination ofllio ticket ns foolishness, The republican and independent candidates for congress are, however, working earnestly for success. Tho only ono of theso who stands any chance of election is tho ???convict congressman," Robert Entails, of tho ???black district." Tho election of tip six democratic nominees is sure. Colo nel William Elliott. Small???s opponont, thinks he will bo able to defeat ???him. The republi cans show little or no iutercst in politics just now', and itseems pretty certain that ouly a small percentage of tlic negro vote will bo. polled. Tlio democratic leaders count upon carrying tbe state by 25,000 majority. Tkiirr Haute, Inn., October 23.???Mr. Blaino left Evansville at 8:30 this morning, having before him a long dsy???s ride to LaFayette. At Terre Haute tie mado a short speech, in which he drew tho distinction between the new and the old south???the now socking in dustrial development and laboring to lend tho people away from tho prejudice* of the past; the old, prejudiced, bitter and hostile to northern interests, devoted to tho ???lost cause," narrow of vision and incapable of taking In tho magnitude of our great future. This old south constituting, ho ???aid, the main clement of strength iu the dt mocrntic party,was now striving and hoping, with the aid of Indiana and New* York, to get control of tho national government, and it was for tho people of those states to say whether they are prepared to hand over the govern ment to tliat element. Wilmington* N. C??, October 23 ???Late last sight, while General Alfred M. Scales, dern ????? erotic coueidato for governor, wo* addressing a large meeting, Including many ladies, in front of tho city hall, a procession of nigroci, who had been attend ing a republican meeting in another part of the city, passed within a few to it of the democratic meet tug, and acted in a most dis orderly roenner, shouting and yelling and making other noisy demonstrations that com pelled the meeting to suspend ita proceedings. Etones were thrown on the sj??eaker* stand, one of them narrowly missing General Scales, and one striking him it?? the breast. Colonel John N. Staples, candidate forelector at large. Tho democrats quietly sub mitted to the outrage, but it has created in tense indignation, and there is mucli^ excite ment on the street to-day. The meeting, ap pointed a committee to wait Upon prominent white republican leaders, ond to inform them that they would be held responsible for any repetition of tbe outrage. Elniba, Y., October 23.???General But ler???s reception here proved a failure. He spoke briefly- Grady was hisied and booted. Dave Healey made a Cleveland speech, much to the disgust of tbe Butlerite*. Tbe whole affair was a fizzle. Ben left for New York in a con dition inconsistent with th^principle* of the St. John party. He had to be helped into bis C *Ralkjoh, N. C., October 23.???The prohibi tionist* have nominated a full electoral ticket fer B. John. Naw Tots. October 21.???At tbe democratic political headquarter* everything is in go *1 thtpe for the contest for Tuesday, two w??k* hence. The managers never felt more coni ??? dent, and the moat hopeful reports are b*inx received every hour during the day. The bolt ??f the indep* ndent republicans it now taking ??? definite shape, and the republican* are ra?? beginning to realize the strength of tbU ele ment, which they heretofore discountenanced. There is up doubt but that it will be a serious lr.6s to the republican vote, sud will figure very prominently in the summing up of Cleve land's vote in this state. Tbe independents havo completed a very elaborate and painstaking canvass of the state. They have precisely 85,320 npmes of solid re publicans signed to pledges that they will not vote lor Blaine. Fully 80,000 of the total have vclr.utoiily pledged themselves to vote for Cleveland, while tbe reai.iinder refused to say what they would do. Added to tho num ber givcu there nro thousands of re publicans who simply said to tho canvass ers that they would not vote for Blaine or .Cleveland either, and no mention was made of St. John or Butler, thus renlly placing the bolt against Blaine at more thau 100,000 votes, or a number almost equal to tho bolt against I???olger two years ago. Tho latest and best es timate of the St. John vote in forty counties of this state places it at 24,fi0i). Tho fool ing among democrats at headquartors is one of confidence, and they are claiming Now York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Indiana and the eolid south. To attempt to check the tide which threatens the overthrow of his life-long hopes, Mr. Blaine, if the statements mado at tho republi can state committee's headquarters are to be be lieved, will turn his caravan towards tho oast the latter part of this week, and on Monday night next will give an exhibition at Angelica, Allegany county. Tho following day ho is expected, according to these same authorities, in this city. Ho is not entirely satisfied with the work of the state committee if reports nro to bo believed, in fact, it is tho opinion of old campaigners that no moro incompetent a state committee ever managed any candidate's canvass Advices from Ohio indiento that tho repub licans arc by no means suro of carrying that state in November. Tho following letter from r very prominent citizen of Cincinnati, to tho committee, gives some hie a of the policy used by tho republicans to carry tho stato election, and the disgust engendered consequent there to. The letter is written by an indopendont republican, who has always voted tho repub- licen ticket, but who will not voto for Blaine. He says: ???There Is a good deni of indignation horo among quiet citizens of all parties concerning tho outrage ous methods of intimidation practiced by tho Dul led States marshal. Mos of the deputy marshals were negro lmllies, and many of them u*;ro non residents. It Is the common belief that they all voted. You can Imagine the effect of putting ten or fifteen j Jug-iiudies, armed and ready fo desper- ote work, at each polling place. Not only were voters kept away from tho polls by the fear of trouble, but democratic workers were less aetlvo than they othc-rwho would have been. Hundreds of people who voted the republican ticket mrly Iu tho day re- f retted later on that they had done so, After see- ng the southern system practiced openly by dep uty marshals In some of the precincts. The ofll- ccisactually carried revolvers in their hands. There wns not the slightest reason to apprehend any outbreak or difficulty of any kind. It Is no exaggeration tossy that hundreds of men who have been republicans will abandon the party next month simply on account of the disgraceful proceeding:? of Tuesday last iu Cincinnati. One wealthy gentleman whom 1 know has not only announced bis intcntlou to vote for Cleveland, but bos sent his cheek for 91.000 to tbe democratic state committee. Ho voted ter Kobiuton. Tho republican managers will find Hint they mado a great mlstako In adapt ing shotgun tactics in this city, Mr. A., who is an independent republican, says that a great ma jority of tho independent republicans voted for Robinson and the entire republican ticket, but tho Independents, numbering moro than 1,000 in (Jin- cinnuti, will nearly nil voto for Cleveland. A considerable percentage of tho German rcpubll- r ton county will give Cleveland a majority of between 1.000 and 2,000. If tho dem ocrat* can bring out their full vote In the state, I ??te no reason why they may not coufideutly hop?? to carry Oldo next month.???/ Among business circles here political feeling is at fever heat, and If the election was loft slouo in tho hands of Now York business men Cleveland would bury Blaine in an aValanche of votes. It bas been practically decided to have n monster parade of business men???s Cleveland clubs nt on early date, at which speakers of national reputation will bo present. A Cleveland ond Hendricks mass meeting will be held in the broad apaco at tho foot of Wall street Wednesday afternoon of next weok under the auspices of tho Down-town Mer chants??? Cleveland club. Tho co-opcration of the Cleveland clubs in tho various exchanges bos been solicited, ond tho Hon. Carl Schur* end Daniel Dougherty, of Philadelphia, havo been speak. Tho origiqators of this demonstration, among whom is Joioph J. O???Donoboo, Jwpo to mako this tho largest po litical meeting over held down town. With tbe democracy of New York united there is no reason why Cleveland should not curry New York stato by 40,000 majority. Ikdi anapolim, October 24.???Ex-Govornor Hendricks reached* Indianapolis tbii morn ing, ond wns inot by a committee, throe bands of music and a lorge crowd. Ho was eieortod to tho Central hotel, and a creditable parado of visiting clubs ond local organizations fol lowed. At 10:30 a. m. Mr. Hendricks appear ed at the wigwam and addressed au audience of 10,000. In hi* speech ho discussed tho tariff, arguing that tho duties should bo levied only for the purpose ol defraying tho expenses of tuo government. Ho said Mr. Cleveland receives support from tho best elements of tho republican party, including ministers, scien tists, college protessors, students, editors and laborers. He emphasize* tho fact that the democrats, looked for a strong support from the independent republicans. Inclosing, lia eulogized tho democratic party, saying It espoused tho couse of tbe weak against tho strong, of the poor against tho rich, of tho op pressed against tho oppressor, llo also paid a tribute to Mr. Lincoln, saying ho was tho host republican president ever elected. Tho speech was frequently interrupted by applause. I???olltie'ul Notes, The finance* of Wisconsin has boon so well managed that there is to be no state tax this year. Cleveland is getting {cady to be president by doing bis work as goVernor. Ho does not require tbe attendance of a circus mau and a brass band. The public credit of South Carolina stand* higher to day than for any date during the past forty yesrs. She pays spot cash and has the cash to pay.

New York October 21.???[Special.]??? 1 The indorsement today by the conventions of Irving Hall and the County Democracy of .ex-Muyor William R. Grace for the next mayoralty puts the second democratic candi date in the field. Municipal politics here now bfglns to get exciting, interest is growing intense, and is beginning to attract almost os much attention as the campaign of the various presidential candidates. The Tammanyitrs are bold and determined, the County Democracy and Irving Hall bitter and working with a vim, and the republicans are as cool butconfideut, basing their hopes on a continuance of the schism in the demo cratic columns. They stand but little show ing, however, and the probability is that the next mayor of New York will be either Hugh J. Grant, Tammany???s nominee, or ex-Moyor William R. Grace, who bar been sent forth by the combined indorsement of Irving Ilall ond the County Democracy. New York is a democratic city by from 40,000 to 00,000 in a square fight, and neither the city nor the stAte has ever been carried by the republicans when there has been anything like harmony in the ranks of the democrats. The question now being most generally considered among politicians of tho city is tho effect the democratic nominations will havo on the vote of the city in the presidential eltclion. Democrats all concede that it will result in the poll of a larger vote for the democratic candidates. Grant and Grace are both Immensely wealthy and both have the confidence of the people. Roth are personal friends of Governor Cleveland, and will re main faithful to him with their influence. Both wings of the party will make a most earnest fight and will spare no means nor en deavors to bring out every vote in tho city. Of course this will .help Cleveland. In tho city of New York thero are 720 election pre cincts, at each one of which Tammany will have eight workers, paid at the rate of from five to ten dollars for their day???s work. This will give Tammany 13,000 active and paid supporters at the polls on the day of the election, whose duty is to bo at the polls ear ly, to vote straight and to sco that ns many others os possible do tho same thing. These workers will use their every exertion for Cleveland. Mr. Grant, with other candidates on his ticket, will subscribe $100,000 for a campaign fund. Ex-Moyor Grace will do tho same thing, and his ticket will increase it to a half million, if necessary. The democratic state central committee will place an additional $100,000 in tho city for a^Clovcland fund. The^national democratic committee will stand by the presidential nominees to a tuno ot another $100,000. Now the question ls, r can"Uie???Blalne mana gers put anything liko a similar amount in New-York city? Over all other sections of the state the republicans are losing confidence and tbe most earnest work and a laige.amount ol money will bo necessary to bring Blaine to New York city with any majority at all. Unless ho carries New York city with a ma jority of 20,000 his chances aro gone. In Connecticut the machine is clamoring for funds ond declare that unloss they go collateral and a large lot of it the state will vote for Cleveland. In tho last Oh'o election over $200,000 was used by the republicans to hold tho state. At least this sum must bo distributed in that ???tato for the November fight or the republi cans will lose what HUlo plurality they man aged to retain. Wisconsin, Michigan aud Il linois are becoming so alarmed that the most urgent importunities are bslng sent to the republican committee by/tho managers in these states for funds to build up in thoso states what the nomination of Blaino has broken down. Iowa and California republicans want funds, and the .more the better, otherwise, those states, now doubtful, may tu* i >.o in the democratic column. To sum it up, tho re publicans cannot afford to put that aiuouut which la necessary In New York city, unless It ho taken from other quarters, which ore absolutely In need of it. In New Y'ork city the democrats aro gutted on the national ticket and ait working under the most admirable system. The nomina tion. of the two branebes^of tho democracy for the mayoralty of the ticket will un doubtedly help Cleveland. Had tho county democracy and Irving hall Indorsed the Tammany ticket it would havo giveu offunso to a largo clement of independent republi cans, their press and many regular democrats and it might bavecost Cleveland ayvery largo vote. As It is, all branches arc united on Cleveland and Hendricks. There is nothing bu?? the most flagrant treachery in Tam many hall that will lose Cleveland any votes. Hence the all-absorbing question if, ???Will Tammany prove faithful???? It will. John Kelly???s recent visit to Cleveland was not without significance. A very prominent In- dianian, a friend of his, reports him M hav ing said to him: ???When you return to Indiana yon I want to say to Mr. Hendricks for me that Tarn many ball will prove as true to the national demo cratic ticket as tbe needle to the pole. Tho charge that the Hall pro\>o*??c3 to sell out Cleveland by making a deal to elect our county ticket is infamously false. I have personally pledged my honor to Governor Cleveland that be should have my earnest and cordial support, and he shall. Let them all say what they please, bnt I never violated my personal pledge in my life. There has been a wonderful improvement developed in this city and state for Cleveland withio the last two weeks. It is surprising. The Ohio election has only had tho effect to stir up the df inocrats and make them more determined. This Mate will go for Cleveland and Hendrick*, and Tammany Hall will contribute 50.000 votes to the triumph. Hay this to Mr. Hen dricks for me, and tell him that he need h.ivo r.o fear of Tammany Ilall or tho rcsalt in '???New York state.??? In all, tbe prospects of the democracy are glowing. If Tammany does its duty, and it* roost prominent members declare that it will, New York and Brooklyn will give Cleveland 60,000 majority. _ ?? v BEECHER ON BLAINE. T. P. E.

He spoke uhder tho auspices of tho independent republican club, and the crowd and enthusiasm were unpre ctdented. The effect on tho vote pf New York will be unquestionably very great.. The Timessays the meeting in numbers and enthusiasm was never equalled in tho efty. Wlmt Mr. needier Salt). A REUALKADLK SREECU FROM A MORE REMARK ARM! MAN???A MASTERLY EFFORT. When Mr. Bcccher came forward, tho va*t audi ence aroze and cheered and shouted and clapped hands and indulged in an outburst of enthusiasm. The dopwmtrntfons wero so pronounced that Mr. Beecher was unable to speak for several mluutcs. When the audlenco had fairly tired themselves oat, eud were hoarse with shoutlug, and uot bo- fore, did they allow him to proem!. Then he ???imply (Rid, but with exquislto drolluess that convulsed the audience, ???Well, gentlemen, I hope you feel better." Ho then went off and spoko for an hour and a half, exciting hi* auditors to laugh ter and applause. The demonstrations of appro val were ro pronounced and so frequent that tho speaker was obliged to ask his hearers, good-na turedly, not to tnko up so much of hh time. His address was a masterly ono as an ora torical effort. The mere language, however, lit erally transcribed, fails to do anything Uke justice to its merit* in this respect. Mr. Beecher???s voice was itrong and clear, and the tones rang through tbe hall liko tho blast of a trumpet. When he spoke of his early efforts In behalf of tho republi can party and his zeal while tho rebellion was ot Its height, his earnestness was unmistakable, and bis quivering lip and faltering voico bore token to tbo depth of feeling which these. memories awakened in him. ???I confess," said Mr. Beecher, "at the risk ot tho Imputation of some Immodesty, that my appear ance here to-night to antagonize tho organized ac tion of tho republican party, is itself a fact of tho most significant character.
