tising medium STATE CAMPAIGN The campaign in our State is ts more attention than any State that has occurred for years It is by common consent regarded as a sort of political barometer which will indicate the day the election what be character of the political weather next year during the Presidential campaign This for several good reasons In the place ours is one of the tain States so-called Her vote shifts considerably with every wind of cal doctrine That is to say she has a percentage of unfixed voters who ate sensitive to the fluctuating rents of political influence This makes the campaign a good test of which way the political wind blows Heie too the issues raised this year rue the very issues upon which the Pi evidential election next year is ex- mainly to turn These issues aie clearly and boldly presented They are the currency question and the question of the preservation of the American common school or the question of a thorough separation of and State The secret alliance between the Democratic party and the Roman Catholics here felt to be only an at i on of a similar alliance all over the country in some States already ly begun and it is regarded as certain that if this alliance succeeds in our Mate this year it will be made a tional alliance next year in the contest Hence the question and the defense of American institutions from sectarian ments arc the main issues in our State campaign and they give to it an un- significance and importance There is also another reason why it is attracting so much attention The population of the State has so large a foreign-born element that its vote this year will afford a fair test of the ence of that element upon the church an 1 school question so that observers may what degree of danger if our peculiar American institutions may apprehend from our vast and in- i population Tbt q how far we are ig the millions who pour into this fiom Europe and how far thiLy are us is one of the most important problems in our poetic Hence it is not to be ed at that an election which promises to considerable direct light upon tins problem should be regarded with interest all over the country Tae contest will afford valuable data a for terming an intelligent 01 this important matter are some of the reasons why involved ia the present more than the usual issue between tia political parties and why the v is regarded with so much unwonted interest bv various classes OHIO TUESDAY AUGUST 17 1875 THE New York Tribune draws this striking portrait of the character of the Democratic candidate for of the State Words are wanting to the meanness of his motives in this campaign What little political inence he has was acquired by ual spouting in favor of the prohibition by law of the sale of liquor All his lifetime up to the hour the convention met at Columbus he has talked un- on this theme Now in the hope of an office he is going through the State talking for a ticket and saying that although he is not a drinking man himself he has nothing to say about his toddy This another man might without reproach but Mr Gary cannot say it without disgrace Yet he has the impudence to put himself forward as the defender of the rights of labor the chattering mountebank who has never worked a muscle but those of his and to pour out his fluent slang against people who are trying to employ befriend and instruct the boring classes whom he is trying to flatter and befool This is a most picture Gary ought to ask the to give him some power to see himself as others see him neighbor's sav The foreign exports of wheat and wheat flour from all United States exporting ports to all foreign countries as per figures compiled by Mr E H Walker of the New York Produce Exchange from the Government report for the crop years from Sept 1 to Aug 31 from to inclusive and the wheat crop of the United States as per Agricultural ment reports in each year afford the lowing interesting comparisons 3 Flour crop

blov audiences he believed in 1 the wonder is he up as well ears TO April 30 inclusive of exports How nors it come about that none of our Democratic contemporaries venture upon an explanation of the de- feat of their party in North It now their game to re- vise the State Constitution in a way to their interest has been ven effectually blocked It was purely a Democratic move and as such has been defeated How is this for a State that reported a Democratic majority of over at the last It looks as if that Bourbon tidal wave had stranded itself THE REASON In the last analysis of the matter it will be discovered that the policy of inflation advocated by the Democratic leaders of this State and in the West and South generally is not in fact based upon any theory relating to the business interests of the country Primarily it has Its origin in a purely political sentiment growing out of the Southern rebellion Those leaders have from the first assumed the tion that the war debt of the ment ought never to be paid that it was unlawfully incurred and imposes no obligation upon the country They favor greenback inflation because it would be a step gained in the direction of ultimate repudiation This is the real point at issue and the period has arrived when it should be settled It is a question of patriotism against treason and rebellion There would be as much sense in saying that the issue of union or disunion in 1861 was not fairly a partisan matter as to argue that the subject of the currency should be banished from the domain of party politics There can be no cape from a division on the line be- tween a sound or unsound currency any more than there could from ing a choice between union and sion fourteen years ugo The point is vital and cannot be put aside to await the convenience of political tricksters It would probably suit such men as Senator Thurman situated as he is now to relegate it to Congress or where else so that it may not inter- fere with their cherished and ambitious schemes but such a course would not content the masses We used to be told that the slavery question should be ex- cluded from the political arena forts were continually being made to get rid of it and hide it out of sight Nevertheless it kept coming to the surface owing to the aggressiveness of the slaveholding power The system of human reported op- porunity to expand and strengthen it- self and would not be denied It was under the protection of men of ly the same class as those who now propose to repudiate the public debt and who as a means to that end are seeking to commit the country to a purely greenback Slavery forced itself into politics and so from the very nature of things must the currency issue There is but one other school equal political importance claiming the attention of the American people to-day and those who try to arrest its discussion will speedily find the mentura so great as to be irresistible Let the people of our State bear these facts well in mind OUB EUROPEAN j tion without coming upon an open square I rih fm Editorial Correspondence ABOUT St Paul's The London's Faces Once More LONDON ENGLAND July 29 Saturday morning we devoted to an ex- amination of St Paul's Cathedral to which one or two cursory visits had pre- been paid This masterpiece of Sir Christopher Wren and the largest church in Great Britain is erected on the site of a still larger Cathedral destroyed in the great fire of 1666 It occupied thirty-five years in building and the last stone was laid in 1710 The building is cruciform of the classic style measuring 510 feet from east to west and 282 from north to south across the transepts while at the intersection of the parts the lofty dome arises with its cross 404 feet above the foundation Some idea may be formed of the size of the interior of the dome if you will recollect that on the floor beneath it you could set the Steubenville Court House tower and all and on top of this another Court House of equal size before you would touch the ceiling At the Sunday evening service a congregation of three to four thousand people gather under this dome for worship The ball which with the cross is of metal the two ing over four tons is supported above the dome by heavy iron rods and is reached by a long climb of 616 steps and ing up between these rods into it It is not pleasant to stay there long as the wind rushing up through the opening in the lower part makes a sound something similar to a large organ pipe so we soon clambered down not forgetting to take a look at the city out between the rods The most favorable place for a view however is from the golden gallery a railing around the top of the dome from which London and the Thames may be seen spread out like a map before you Before ing we took a view of the interior of the church through an opening in the ceiling of the dome The daily service was in progress and the people looked Jike small black dots on the floor 300 feet below while the surpliced priest who was just going to the lectern to read the lesson presented the appearance of a white moth The monuments in St Paul's although not numerous are for the most part gant and tasteful Nelson Wellington and other notables have memorials here but there is nothing in this way more im- pressive than the latin inscription over the north entrance which in English Beneath lies Christopher Wren the ar- of this church and city who lived more than ninety years not for himself alone but for the public Reader do you seek his monument Look around Leaving St Paul's we obtain a view of the river from London bridge and after watching the busy crowds of teams and pedestrians which throng it from sunrise to nightfall we bend our steps to another interesting object in this part of town the TOWER OF LONDON There was a heavy jam at the front en- trance to the yard as only small parties are taken through the buildings at one time and each was anxious to be among the first Forcing our way through this however we were soon inside where there was no farther rush The warden first conducted us across the moat which has been drained and is now used as a drill ground to the centre buildings passed the traitor's gate a low arched entrance opening out on to the Thames to the Bloody Tower where the infant sons of Edward the Fourth are supposed to have been murdered thence to the White Tower erected by William the Conqueror about A D 1078 and the oldest of the existing buildings Not the least interesting part of the visit is a walk through the armories Here may be found innumerable specimens of ancient armor most tastefully arranged and ed on the different effigies to illustrate in the most effective mariner how knights of ye olden time appeared when prepared for war There is also an immense collection of modern arms and accoutrements and trophies captured from foreign enemies Nothing is allowed to be used in the ing and wall decorations of this building except arms and armour or parts of the same and the skill with which these cles have been worked into representations of birds flowers vines and other natural objects is something astonishing the armory we come to a small plat of ground enclosed by an iron railing for- merly used as a place of execution where Anne Boleyn Lady Jane Grey Earl of Strafford Archbishop Laud and a host of others met their death In the White Tower is a chapel considered one of the best specimens of Norman Architecture in existence and under the place occupied bv the present stairway ascending to which while making some excavations were dis- covered what were supposed to have been the bones of the murdered princes After a glance at the prison the next visit is to the jewel house where is kept the regalia of Great Britian a magnificent of gold and velvet The most inent object is St Edward's crown made for the coronation of Charles II and used in all the coronations of British sovereigns since Near it a cap of purple velvet ablaze with diamonds and precious metals and weighing one and three-fourths pounds the crown made for the tion of Queen Victoria Then there is the Prince of Wales crown and one or two others of note the Royal Sceptre of cold two feet nine inches in length St Edward's staff of the same material over four and one-half feet long the Golden cellar of State in the shape of a castle and used at the coronation banquets a wine fountain presented to Charles II besides a number of other articles which must be passed over The value of the whole is estimated at the neat little sum of three and one-half millions sterling or nearly THE PARKS Anyone who imagines London to con- sist of simply a vast aggregation of bricks and mortar with scarcely breathing room afforded to the teeming population by narrow contracted streets makes a great mistake The city is intersected where by broad avenues and you cannot walk for any creat distance in any pr a patch of trees grass and flowers Or if you wish through the heart of the city surrounded on all sides by fields and groves with nothing fo remind you unless it be the occasional roar of traffic on the busy streets beyond that you are in the midst of the largest city in the world Hyde Park with Kensington gardens ad- joining contains over six hundred acres with a beautiful stretch of water large enough to enjoy a pleasant The park is beautified by fountains and in er ways but the most striking object is the memorial monument to the late Prince Albert erected on the south side opposite Albert Hall There ia certainly no lar work of such elaborate design or finish in the United if we except haps Scott's at Edinburgh At the four corners of the broad platform on which it rests are marble sculptures representing the four great continents of the globe while around the base are life size figures in the same material of men gotten renowned in the arts Above this ported on pillars of Scottish granite ing a recess like a church porch is the superstructure richly decorated with painting and guilding and surmounted by a large gilt cross Regent's Park is another of the great Lungs of London lying to the north of Hyde Park and containing the gardens of the Royal Zoological Society These latter grounds are tastefully laid out and the animals of which there is a large col- lection arranged to afford favorable ties for studying their nature and their habits Besides these there are a of other parks of lesser note St is a pretty stretch of from Westminster to Buckingham Palace the London residence of the having on one side St James Palace another royal residence iarge but of no great beau- ty externally Then there are Victoria Park and the different squares to which I have referred and innumerable places of resort in the suburbs so that the people of London do not suffer lack of green fields and fresh air as much as one might imagine FACES We have had the pleasure of meeting here Rev Dr A M Reid of Steubenville with Rev Dr AVilson of Allegheny and Judge Kirkpatrick and Dr McCandless of Pittsburgh who are here attending a conference designed to unite all the bodies of the world into one As the Dr has written an account of the conference proceedings it will not be necessary for me to repeat it The party go to Paris on Monday where we shall probably meet them again next week D THE prominence of the school tion in our State campaign has been partially lost sight of in the importance which has is This must not however be for- The solid Roman Catholic vote of the State is pledged to the ocracy in return for their influence in favor of admitting the parochial schools of the church to a share in the school fund Speaking of which ter the New Times pertinently A Democratic triumph in Ohio would unquestionably result in putting an end to the unsectarian character of the public school system in that State The Romish hierarchy extorted from the last Democratic Legislature the relieving the inmates of State ons from all obligation to attend re- ligious service They are counting on getting from the next if not a amendment for the concurrent endowment of sectarian schools at least a concession in favor of giving schools controlled by priests their share of the tax raised for educational purposes iii A DEMOCRATIC exchange says Senator Morton defends the administration He asserts that no administration was ever more ful in exposing frauds True enough There was once a farmer who dug up more Canada thistles from his land than did any of his neighbors from theirs His land had the most thistles ia it Probably that farmer more land thaa any of his neighbors It is quite likely that the seeds of the thistles he dug up were planted under the management of his predecessor Both suppositions are correct in re- spect of the great administration i THE three most things known to the world are box Banquo's ghost and Sam Yet Jack can he bolted down arily Banquo will quit walking
