An immense ratlflcatloa meeting of the Ohio
Republican nominees was held in Cincinnati last
evening, at which Senator Sherman spoke at
length. We give the following extracts:
THB 'KKW DKPARTCRI" OF THB DBMOCRACT.
I congratulate jon that we nave now, in Ohio, at
least the formal approval of the great distinguishing
measures of Kepubilcau policy by the recent con
vention ofDemocratlc politicians here In Columbus.
Tbey tell us that they recognize as accomplished
facts the three amendments or the Constitution, and
they pledge themselves to the fall and faithful en
forcement of the Constitution as It Is, so as to
secure equal rights to ail persons under It, without
distinction of race, color, or condition. So far, well.
It is a great matter to secure even a formal
acquiescence in constitutional changes, especially
when they Involve the rights of millions of people,
and when they have been so steadily opposed In all
Htsges by the Democratic party, North and South.
i uey were tne issues or war. Tney are the issues
since the war. They were mainly the Issues of the
last Presidential campaign. Opposition to them was
the starch, the uniting element of the Democratic
narty. Where would they have been without the

people of the South to the Democratic party but

Democratic party. VVuere will the great

effect upon our institutions of the citizenship of
Rmanclpated slaves? Where will be trat other

ounded upon prejudice acainat and hate of negroes,
ind who, In the mobs of New Yerk, and lu organized
Knobs of the Mouth, hunted down, whipped, and mnr-
lered negroes, to prevent them from exercising either
l ivtl or political rights; and who whipped, scourged,
nd murdered white men and women, too, for edu
cating and being friends of the negro race ? What

Ver more voles in the South thau we have Demo-

mainst acquiescing m ine amendments? still, la
plte of all this uncertainty, it Is a glorious fact, of
mien iiepumicanB ra-iy reel proud, that a majority
f the Democrats of Ohio acquiesce in the great
measures we have brought about, promise obedience
i them, and the enforcement of them, and bg of
s no longer to consider them as political Issues he

CAN THE DEMOCRATS. BE TRUSTED ?
Test the Democratic party by what it has done,
here it has been la power recently. What eood did

creased the State expenditures In every branch of

Then It wonld have fallen alike npno all..
We cannot tox freight on transit through the

the tax levied by the I-egislatnie, but we have got to
pay this additional rtso.ooo. We could have got
clear of It all If the proposed compromise had been
made.
Mr. Townsend said further that the boats were
very uncertain ; they would only run when there was
a full crop. The railroad was always prepared to
carry one basket or a million of baskets.
A FLAQ OF SUCCOR LAMPIS AMD JIM FISK TO THE
RESCUE.
George W. Oummtns obtained the floor and aaid
I he bad something new and something good to tell.
itenei was at nana; witinu six months another rail
road would be bnilt which would bring them right
straight to New York. Last week, Mr. Landts, of
Vlneland, New Jersey, was over here and entered
Into a written contract with the Bombay Uook Rail
road Company to balld that road to connect with
the Maryland and Delaware Railroad within six
months, and probably within four. The com
pany making the contract, of which Colonel Jlra
Flsk la the bead, had 1175,000 loose capital to put
into the work, and all they required from
the stockholders of the Bombay Hook Railroad
Company was 120,000. This latter sum was ready,
and a sn indent force of hands ready to put on the
work. This road connects with one on the other
side of Delaware river at the mouth of Scow creek,
thence throngh Vlneland to Rarltan Bay, thus bring
ing us Into New Yok in two hours. The same com
panv would then build their road from Oxford on
the Eastern Shore to Richmond. A line would also
be built from Vlneland to Cape May to connect with
a'llne of boats to Lewes, and thus give the people of
the State a straight and quick oommunloation with
New York. He thought Mr. Landis was very for
tunate in getting possession of the Maryland and
Delaware Koad when he did, for President Hinckley
went down to buy out the road three days after Mr.
Landis had been there.
"BHAKING BANDS OVES A NIBBLE."
Mr. Brown made a few remarks in congratulation
of the good time coming when we should be clear
of the P., W. and B. monopoly. . He said Mr. Landis
was the man for him ; anybody who would get three
days ahead of President Hinckley was no humbug.
He had faith In any man who would build up a city
in the desert like Vlneland. Mr. Brown then
stepped up to Mr. Cummins and shook hands with
him, on the strength of the good news.
Mr. Townsend "Look at those two old gentle
men shaking hands over a nibble, Landis coming
here wearing Jim Flsk's coat."
Mr. Heverin made some remarks In favor of water
communication, and was very severe in his criti
cisms of the conduct of the railroad company. He
thought the franchise worth more to them than all
the tax they paid : take away their exclusive privi
leges, and they will soon offer 140,000 bonus per
year for a restoration of the same privilege.
The resolution to appoint the committee was
adopted, and James L. Heverin, John-Emerson, and
Wllilara TownseDd were appoluted said committee.
On motion of Mr. Brown the proposition or the
railroad company to reduce the freight to 1100 per
car load from Dover, as a basis, was accepted.
THE PENINSULAR PEACH CROP OF 1S7L
Estimates of the crop likely to be carried over the
railroad were then mane, showing a total of 8,315,000
basket, which does not Include any which will be
sent by water.
The association Instructed the commission mer
chants of New York to pay not more than three
cents per basket for carriage from Jersey City.
The Chairman oi the Executive Commute was In
structed to confer with the P. W. and B. R Oo. In
i-elatlon to the reduction of freight to Philadelphia.
The convention then adjourned.
A PAK1C IN WALL STREET.
Ruluims Corner in Rock Island A Shrewd
Opr ratlon that Did Not Succeed Omi
nous LI at of Failures.
Wall street had a financial earthquake yester
day. Brokers and their worldly prospects were
upheaved in 'all directions, and, falling again,
hurt themselves badly. There was a panic in
Rock Island stock, a panic which was complete
in all respects save the success of the chief ope
rator This chief operator, or the lever which
moved the macs of Wall street specnlation with
bo much energy, was Mr. W. S. Woodward,
a well-known broker. Mr. Woodward has been
on tbo street many years, and although he
has no regular oilice and forms no part of a
firm, has been noted as an extensive and daring
speculator. He resides in Brooklyn, and is quite
a prominent man in the city of churches, paying
especial attention to Sunday-schools and reli
gious meetings, in the conduct of which he ap
pears to have taken great interest. To see Mr.
Woodward among his brother brokers, one
wonld not imagine him to be of the gay,insoacl
ant, Wall street category. He generally sits on
one chair, with his feet on another, his hat, a
white one, on the back of his head, a cigar in his
mouth, raying nothing, bnt as one of the young
speculators observed yesterday, "taking every
thing in." He moves in a mysterious way,
rarely acting for himself, nearly always getting
other brokers to transact his business for him.
During the course of his Wall street life, par
ticipating in all the corners and panics of the
day, he has "suspended" several time, bat In
variably rises again from the ashes of his appa
rent ruin, to all Intents as daring, unconcernod,
and well prepared as ever.
FOTTINO TJP THB PAKIC.
Now be it known that among the speculative
portion of the brokers a peculiar attectlon is
manifested towards Kock Island and Lake Shore
stock. Whenever there are any neat operations
to be aone in railways, they are almost invari
ably selected as the groundwork of the plot.
Mr. Woodward, on the lookout for a stray
million or so, on Monday fixed upon Rock
Island as the base of his operations. He
probably said to himself, "There are only
170.000 chares of the stock out; I'll get the
whole and more; if I can only get the money
advanced to me to pay for tbem the day after,
I'll be all right. I can make the boys pay me
just what 1 please." The idea was grand. It
was another and not far removed version of the
Black Friday corner so famous in financial
circles
BUTINO UP TIIE STOCK.
Rock Island on Monday ranged from 113 to
115. On Monday evening about twenty brokers
received their orders from Mr. Woodward to
bny np Rock Island stock for him. On Tues
day they commenced operations. They rushed
around the room like maniacs. Every one of
them bad a piece of telegraph paper crumpled
np in his left hand, and swung a book and pen
cil wildly about in his right. The consequences
of the movement were soon apparent, by two
and three, and five and ten the indicator for
Rock Island rose amid the tumult until the quo
tation ttood130. It was a perfect pandemonium.
If all the wild animals in the country
had been turned into the Stock Exchange they
could not have raised a more demoniacal uproar.
Mr. William Fanshawe, one of the firm of Fan
tbawe & McDougall, a yonng man well liked on
the street, burst a blood-vessel, and is now
dyiDg. But what did that matter amid the ex
citement? The nproar went on, and when dark
ness fell over the street the first act in Mr.
Woodward's play was enacted to the satisfaction
of the, author, and the brokers w bom he had
employed had purchased for him 230,000 shares
of Rock Island stock, or actually 50.000 more
shares than there were in existence. Mr. Wood
ward then, it is said, sold foO.OOO in "puts," and
went away satisfied.
TUB COLLAPSE.
Yesterday morning came the tug of war.
Woodward was not aronnd. He was not in the
street, and the brokers whom he bad employed
were frantic. Why wasn't be there? Because, it
is said, he struggled to obtain the money where
with to take tbe shares purchased for Dim, but
rould not get the requisite funds. No one would
advance the money to him. How tared it with
his brokers? Those who had sold them the
slock came for the money, and did not get it.
The brokers said they bought for Woodward, and
he bad not seen them in regard to paying them
for tbe stock. But then the Stock Exchange
and its rules stepped in and said to the
brokers: "tJentlemen, you were all baying for
one man. You need not thill ike blame on him,
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, JUNK 22, 1871.
for we don't recognize a third party. Yon alone
are responsible to the seller, and If yon don't
pay np we will sell out tbe stock under the
rule." There was a nice situation. The brokers
did some tall rushing around to scare up money
to pay for the stock tbey had pnrt'haxed on
Woodward's account, but they coald not get
any. Hut in the meantime the stock was tailing
fearfully. From 130 it went down to 110, and
at tbe middle of the day the broker collapsed
and suspended.
TTIB FAILURES.
At the latest from tbe Stock Exchange the
following brokers bad been declared suspended
by the board: A. II. PeonUon, Earla A 8nl ton
stall, R. Waller, John W. Gillespie, A. O.Wood,
Dater & Tlmpson, Hubbard, Craven & Co., J.
Austen, Fanshawe & McDongall, W. O. Tunis.
A. M. Jndson, W. A. Bowan, J. J. Hovt. Of
these the suspension of Fanshawe & McDongall
is only a temporary one, and it is hoped that
nearly all the others will resume business in a
few days by honorable settlement N. X. World,
to-day.
DR. BET1IUSE.
Unveiling fit the Statue of the Dlstln
gulshed Clergyman.
The late Rev. Dr. Bethuoe is so well and affec
tionately remembered in Philadelphia that the
following, from the New York Post of last even
ing, will be read with interest:
Among the interesting occurrences at the
twenty-fifth anniversary of the Packer Institute,
in Brooklyn, was the unveiling of the statue of
the late Rev. Dr. Bethune, and the address of
the Rev. Dr. Vinton. The statue is of pure and
unblemished marble, eight feet high, moulded
by our distinguished artist, U. K. Brown, and
sculptured in Italy. It represents Dr. Bethune
in the attitude of speaking, with the right arm
extended in an emphatic gesture. Indeed, the
pese is excellent and characteristic. The statue
rivals tbe best examples of sculpture, whether
we consider the exquisite finish of the work or
the conception of the artist.
There is something peculiarly charming In
this statue, also, in view of its history, which
Dr. Vinton illustrated in his remarks.
He said that the origin of this majestic sculp
ture was a simple notice to the friends of the
late Dr. Bethune to meet at the Century Associa
tion in 1865. At that meeting persons in various
wains oi ine appeared. Ulgn and low, rich and
poor, came together. One admired Dr. Bethune
for his eloquence in the pulpit; another as a
pastor; another as a companion; another for his
poetry; another for his conjugal tenderness,
another as a friend; another as a scholar; an
other as a lecturer; another as a fisherman. It
was, hence, concluded that his merit was that
of a man in whom no quality was salient, but, as
Edward Everett said of Washington, he was as
a sphere, developed in all parts alike, and a full
integral man a man of integrity in the truest
sense.
Accordingly it was determined that no bust
nor mural alto relievo should represent him, but
a statue, in heroic proportions, as a man. The
statue was estimated to cost twelve thousand
dollars. He related an incident evincing the
peat heart of Dr. Bethune, which touched the
hearts of all who heard it. ;
He said that in the last will of Dr. Bethune it
was written in words to this effect, that in the
memory of God's blessings be recalled the
spiritual converse he had had with Christian
friends, but none more tenderly than those with
Christian ministers of other denominations; and
among tbese the recollection of his intercourse
with the Rev. Dr. Storrs and the Rev. Dr. Vin
ton recurred to him in that solemn hour. No
one who might have heard their conversation
would have conjectured that ecclesiastical differ
ences had separated them, for the central topic
of love to our common Saviour was the theme
of converse, and he requested that these clergy
men, if they survived blm, would do him tbe
charity of being his pall-bearers and seeing him
buried at Greenwood. This was done. Who,
among tbe thousands who make their wills in
view of death, would have remembered the
heart's history and experiences? but Dr.
Bethune did; and the anecdote illustrates the
man.
THIERS AMD THE K0URD0SS.
Ilia Views on the Return of tne Bonrbons,
the State of France, and the Maintenance
of the Republic.
The debate on the motion to allow the Bour
bon and Orleans families to return to France
took place on the 8th inst., and as already an
nounced by telegraph, the motion was adopted
by a vote of 494 yeas to 108 nays. The foL
lowing is a detailed report of M. Thiers' speech
on that occasion:
M. Thiers expressed great faith la the Bonrbon
family, but added: ''Sou think yon are doing a
great act of generosity. 1 on are doing something
quite different. The laws It 1b proposed to abrogate
are not laws of proscription, but laws of precaution.
Two governments cannot co-exist npon the same
soil. I blamed the Kepubiicans in 184S for abrogat
ing the laws of proscription. J said then to Louis
Napoleon, 'These lmpruaent Republicans have re
called j on. You will be their master mine you
shall not be.' "
at. 1 biers professed great friendship for the family
of Orleans, but declared that his friendship for his
country was superior to all others a declaration
which was loudly cheered by the Assembly, and he
added : "We have won a material victory ; we shall
gain a moral triumph by our prudence."
Tbe Chief of the Executive went on to speak of
the pact entered Into at Bordeaux. He defended
the revolntion of the 4th of September, and said:
"It is the fashion now to attack that revolution, but
people forget that they wished for It, and they do
not remember the services it has rendered. The
men of the 4th of September were wrong in wisniug
to continue the war; but the fault was not com.
mitted in Paris, which was bound to close Its gates
against the enemy, but outside Paris, by men In
power, who carried on a policy of furious mad
mena senseless policy, which substituted the
action of tbe few for the authority of France." M.
Thiers explained that. In the pact of Bordeaux, the
Assembly sought to free France from despots who
were endeavoring te keep her in their own hands ;
but it was Bot intended to overthrow the Republic.
"We received," be said, "from the Assembly a U
facto Government, and It is our task to restore order
and tbe credit of the nation. I am not the most
powerful man In France, but I have the greatest
responsibility, and I wish to fuldl my duty loyally."
M. Thiers then explained bow it was that he was a
Republican. He said that for forty years he had
striven to procure for France a constitutional mon
archy, such as exists in England, and declared that
he found that although there was great liberty ex
isting at Washington, the Government perhaps
enjoyed greater liberty in London on account of the
favorable district selected for its deliberations. The
French princes ought to comprehend that a consti
tutional monarchy is, in substance, a republic, of
which the President is hereditary. (Cheers.) M.
Thiers deplored the immense misfor
tunes attending revolutions, and added,
"France will rise again if we are
wise; but it is necessary that we should be thor
oughly wise, In consequence of our actual position,
as we can no moie afford to commit errors." He
recalled the fact that it had been decided at Bor
deaux to put aside all questions which could have
divided the country, and further said, "I have ac
cepted the republic as a deposit, and I will not be
tray the trust. The future does not concern me. I
merely look at the present. I serve no party; and In
the choice of the generals I never considered their
political opinions, but the interests of the country."
M. Thiers highly praised tbe array, stating that he
loved the aoid lers as his own children a declara
tion which waa received with unanimous cheering.

A SISflUTAK CASE.
The Bed-room of Two Yonncr l.adUa '
Entered at Night and the Hair, Shaved
Clot from Their Heads.
The Louisville Courier-Journal of the 20th'
says:
A small cottage on East Market street was
the scene, night before last, of a most remarka
ble ocenrrence.
The cottage consists of three rooms, all on the
first floor, occupied by a family of taste and re
finement. On Saturday night last, the back
room was occupied by two young ladles, daugh
ters of tbe family, the father and mother sleep
ing In a room adjoining.
Some time during the night the room of the
ladies was entered by some one bo noiselessly
that nothing was known of the intrusion until
next morning.
There slept his beautiful victims, their wealth
of flowing hair sweeping in rich profusion and
inimitable neglige over the snowy pillow. He
approached the bedside, cautiously, gently.
A few clicks of the scissors, making "less a
sound than tbe dream of a sound," and all is
over. Those flowing tresses, the "glory of a
woman," as Holy Writ declares, are shorn closer
than Samson's beneath the faithless fingers of
Delilah, taken off as close to the scalp as a
barber might have done by daylight. 8everal
articles of jewelry in the rooms were moved
from their proper place, but none were taken
away. 1 be apartments occupied by other mem
bers of the household were entered, clothing
thrown about confusedly, a gold locket, a
breastpin, several pieces of money scattered
around, but all answering promptly, the next
morning. -
It is evident that whoever tbe intruder he or
she was only bent on getting possession of "the
glory of the sex." The first information of the
night's doings came from the young ladies, who
awoke and found themselves the victims of this
"taking off." The whole transaction is most
mysterious. Did some one invade the sacred
precincts and thus violate "vested rights" in the
Interest of the braid manufacturers; and even
now do these wavy tresses adorn ' some shop
window on Fourth street? Or has some envious
lemale, with carroty hair, turnip nose and bean
eyes, thus deprived her rivals of their chief
ornament? Or has that strange gentleman who
infested this city about a year ago, breaking
into houses and indulging his mania for gazing
at sleeping folks, returned again, with an addi
tion to his programme? .

i Court of Quarter Session Allison, P.J.
In the matter of Ernest Erause, who was con
victed of an assault aad battery with Intent to kill
Lawyer Dledrlck, a metlon for a new trial waa this
morning made on the ground of the prisoner's in
sanity. The court granted a preliminary rule, under
which depositions on the question of sanity will be
taken.
The case engaging the attention of the Court and
jury was that of a German baker named Henry
Armand, who waa charged with stealing a sum of
money. It was alleged that he was present when
the prosecutor sold out a tavern to a third party, and
was sitting near by the prosecutor when he received
tbe money npoa the sale. In a short time the prose
cutor missed a portion of the money, and then find
ing that Armand had gone away, he suspected him
and caused his arrest. The defense offered evidence
to prove that the prosecutor had told contradictory
stories about the affair, and also showed the defend
ant had always enjoyed an excellent reputation for -
honesty. On trial.
