COUNTY 1 TICKET. For County Fudge, : JORN CALDWELL.. reer se lie Oly. Ohio ana Pennsylvania. To the elections. which take. .-to-lay in Ohio and Pennsy: ‘the attention of the country rs ongerly directed. It may. be an infelicity in our political system that when States .should sim; ply be choosing the members of their Btate government, they are virtually . aoticipating a Presidential election, but itis an apparently unavoidable incident of that system. The highest interests, and therefore the absorbing ones, are those of all the States in common, and since itis impossible for either political party of a State to make its voice heard in tho national councils -unless it can triumph i in the State, the State elections must continue to. be trials of _ the strength of national parties. There is scarcely a qnestion that Ohio will vote to-day as she has been accustomed to vote. Last’ year she elected Isaac Sherwood, Republican, over Wm. Heisly, Democrat, by a majority of 16,668, in a total vote of 439,574. In 1868. she gave a total Presidential vote of 519,254, and a majority of 41,190 for Grant. There has been no diversion that should change the status of Ohio as a Republican State, although she has . been set down in Democratic lists as _ doubtful,” = Her majority for Linecoln in 1864 was 59,586; in a total --voteof 470,722, and in 1860 it was 20,779 over the combined votes for Douglas, Breckenridge and Bell. -Politically Ohio is ‘well entitled to be taken as e representative State of the conntry. No ‘State sympathizes more. thoroughly . with every other section, North, South, East and West. She has furnished the Demoeratic New Departure. She gave it birth, and none more than her own Democrats have contributed to bring > ¥€ to burial. The Hamilton county Republicans. have also afforded a Rwpublican New Departure, which, however, has created but the mildest ripple on the surface of events, Were there really any pertinency whatever in the idea of anew party at this juncture, it would have found strong expression in this Ohio canvass. The Democratic hope was to detach Republicans to train after the banner of Vallandigham—than which vain fancy there was neyer.a vainer, The ‘Republican and Democratic fight has gone on as usual, the Democrats making their best efforts and other States. The result, we confidently anticipate, will be the addition of Ohio to the roll of Republican States for 1871 and 1872. Pennsylvania has also been classe4, and with better reason as ‘‘doubtful’ by Democratic authority. But in 60 she gave Lincoln nearly 60,000. overthe three opposing candidates, and in ’64 gave him 20,000 over McClellan. In '68 she gave Grant 28,898 over Seymour, against the infience of the Tammany. corruption. In '69 the Republican majority for Geary for Governor was but 4,596, but the total vote was then -over seventy-nine thousand less than in ‘68, This year the Democrats will expend their last ehergy to carry Pennsylvania, and if the Republicans are successful it will be their grandest victory in the rol) of 1871. ‘We feel little hesitation, however, “ predicting that the result of the . twenty-one electoral. votes and the twenty-six of Pennsylvania from the Democratic list of ‘‘doubthing elections in the Buckeye He Keystone States will the ful’’ to that of “eertain for the Rei eiageuenalt By the me of H.

The Examiner and other Democratic papers are attempting to show that Affairs are fiot 6o bad in New not so heavy as charged by-the press. The Committee of Seventy investi. gating these frands are ‘composed equally of Democrats and Republicans, and here is what this body a 0 where one political an ae ‘unchecked rule for so many years, and where. millions could be stolen from the tax-payers without im extra burdens that ‘were felt as onerous by so wealthy a constituency, it is not strange that revailing corruption should have beckeh out in aggravated forms, nor that all the evil elements in our community should have finally been combined into an apparently irresistable phalanx, ~ No such mass of bad inaterial was — to be found’ ace . Waiting such a masterly alliance of ac¢) corrupt leaders to a op all its resources of evil. Ignorance furnished Lready tools of a combination that included a politieal. craft worthy of a departed Michiavelli, an adroitness of advocacy that was effective in spite of occassional buffooneries, a course of brutality of power that awed and inspired roffians and low natures, and a sort of.cunning that was the sublimation of the skill of the sneak thief. Given these elements, opportunities and leaders, and the natural result was the Ring which, until lately, has robbed an stolen itself into power, which has bought Legislature, controlled Governors, corrupted newspapers, defiled courts of justice; violated the ballot box, threatened all civil and religious liberty, awed the timid rich,: bribed: the toiling masses, and cajoied respect‘able citizens, and which has finally grown so strong and reckless as rf upeuly defy the inieiligence and vittue which it believed to be inert, voiceless, and powerless to stay its aggressions or to assert the supremacy of honesty and justice. This is no picture by a Republican artist. It is a view of real life. Its reality is attested, by old Democrats of New York city, with such as Wm. F. Havemeyer at their head. Had it proceeded from Republicans alone, it would be but’an indictment. Proceeding from Democrats also, it is both an indictment and a confession. It is 4 Democratic plea of “«zuilty’! to charges which Republicans have proclaimed and Democrats have.denied for-many a year pastWhat is the Democratic power in its metropolis? A combination of the worst elements, if the most trustworthy Democrats of New York city may be believed. Mark the language: All the evil elements in our community have been combined into an apparently irresistable phalanx.’’: And again: ‘‘No such mass of bad material was elsewhere to: be found waiting such a masterly alliance of. corrupt leaders to deyelop all its re. sources of evil.’’ Is it or is it not true that ‘‘birds of & feather ficck together’’? Here isa. confessed. ‘‘masterly alliance of corrupt leaders’! on one side, with the hosts of ignorance, brutality, depravity and licentiousness on the other. On one hand are adroit. politicians, and in league with them on the other are the denizens and habitues of the slums, brothels, groggeries and all the sinks and sewers of iniquity, ‘‘A man is known by the company he keeps’’ is the old saw. Such, by its own confession, is the company the Democratic party of New York has been keeping for many years. past. A-SINGULAR evidence of Oregon's antiquity was lately taken out of the ground at Tillamodk Head. It appears that some men were grading a road bed, and when 25 feet below the surface, one of them exhumed a copper bowie knife, over 22 inches long, two and a half inches wide,. by curiosity was sent to C.

The inVitations and bills of. fare were printtables were supplied with all the delicacies of the Pacific Coast, and the Eastern States were even: made. to contribute to the splendor of the feast. Each invitation was accompanied bya cartoon of Robert Watt, State Controller. He holds in his hand a battle labeled ‘‘Watt’s Antidote,”’ and is singing “‘I Haight to tell, but then I must.’’ The following is the bill of fare and invitation: — BREAKFAST BILL OF FARE.

We believe it is exaggerated. New Hams, Jake Naffzigar has at his shop on Commercial. street, hams, bacon and dried beef cured this season.

After Them. The Grand Jury of Sati’ Joaquin} county have indicted and caused to be arrested’about40 pé®sons connected in some way, shape or form in the lottery business in the city of Stockton. Among the list of names we notice those of Capt. Geo. W. Kidd, the proprietors of the Stockton Jndependent and Republican, the latter for publishing lottery advertisements. The District Attorney of that county is said to be a brilliant(?) man, ahd it becomes the duty of the tax payers there to present him with leather medal.’ It is putting the county toa heavy expense for nothing, a8 we do not believe a jury can be found in the State that would bring a verdict against lottery dealers. Why didn’ this smarty go after the Mercantile Lottery venders; that was the time he should have taken notice of the matter, and not wait till this late day. If the Mercantile Lottery had been stopped it would have killed off all attempts to start others. 5 The Grass Valley Union. ¥ Our friends of the Grass Valley Union, are fitted up in splendid style in their new quarters, on the corner of Main ‘and Mill streets. They have a large, commodious and well lighted composing room, and a large press room adjoining,a neatly fitted and furnished editorial room, and the ‘‘old bach’’ proprietor has a gorgeously furnished chamber on the same floor Everything about the establishment isin first rate order, and the only thing that puzzled us was the use a bachelor had for that handsome double bed. We hope to. have a notice that will solve the puzzle soon. “Cabin 1 Robbed, Vv The cabin of Hi. C. McKelvey, on East Broad street, was entered and robbed on last Saturday night. The thief knocked off a board of the fence, and then forced the door open. with a bar of iron. He took two large grey California blankets, but did not disturb the clothing or anything else in the cabin. McKelvey tracked the street to the bridge and down Kelsey ravine, nearly to Chinatown. The thief was barefooted, and had a part of an old sock or cloth on one foot. He was without-doubt. a Chinaman. Another Cabin Robbed.JOn Sunday night the cabin of Wm. . Fenney, near Barton's shop, on, Coy‘ote street, was entered by some one who effected an entrance by prying open the door with a bar. ‘ A pair of grey California blankets and a pair of sixteen dollar boots, new, were taken. The blankets fourd in the possession of the Chinaman killed by officer Scott were recognized by Fenney as his, but the boots were not found. The Rureka Party. \/The party to be given by the Eureka Social Club, takes place at Temperance Hall this evening. Extensive preparations have been made for @ grand time, and we believe there will be a very large crowd in attendance. All lovers of dancing should be on hand, as this is the first. party of the season. We call attention tothe advertisement of Antoine Tam,to be found in to-day’s Transcript. Tam receives fresh oysters every night by express and cooks them in any style desired. ‘Read his notice. ~~ ; Convalescent. ¥ Judge Rolfe, who has. been seriously ill for about two weeks, was able to appear on the streets again yesterday.

Tue Freshmen (classic) class of Yale College at the coming session will contain about 150 students, and the scientific department over 60 students.

Texas is to have an exhibition of: children at its State Fair, and the San Antonia Herald says it does not believe there is another community of its size in the United States that can produce so many perfectly beautiful and healthy children as the city of San Antonia and aaa: country. Tue political excitement in Texas is intense, and it is predicted that more votes will be polled at the Congressionai election in October than ever beforé. The discussion seems to be wholly confined to the administration of the State Government and the result is doubtful. Tux.
