Since Fremont carried Ohie in 1&3G, it has never seriously faltered in its lie pnblicanisra. In 1SGS it gave Grant a majority of mere than -41,000, and in 1872 its majority for the. same soldier was ever 37,000. In the October election of 1870, when the political reform revelu. tien was sweeping ever the country, the majority of the Republican candidate for secretary of state fell te 0,030, presaging Republican defeat in the nation. In the November following, however, the forces of state pride in the presidential candidate held it te its moorings by the scanty majority of 7,610. In 13S0 it began te rise te its old place, Riving the Republican candidate for secretary of state in October 19,00e majority, and Garfield in November a majority of 34.227. It will thU3 be seen that a Democratic success has never come in n presidential year since the foundation of the Republi can party.Democratle victories have been mainly wen when there wa3 Republican t'7W analnv. we superiority witn wnicn they ESSffe held their organization intact standing HT.!5 .& - .. . .... PT. v thorn in crnnrl Btpirl. In IS7T rim Democrats were successful, mere than 34,000 votes having been palled for the Workingmen, In hibition and Greenback candidates. One year later the Republicans elected their candidate for secretary of state by a plurality of 3,151 but in 1870 Fester's plurality for governor was 27,120. Gov. Fester was reelected in 1SS1 by 24,309 plurality, but the following year the . Democratic candidate for secretary of state had a plurality of 10,115. The state remained Democratic at last year's elec tion, Governer Ileadly being seated by a plnrallty of 12,020, and a majority of 1,318. There is little doubt that the reserve vote of Ohie is Republican, and if that vote can be brought out, the Republicans flW'Sfc'have a-Vtry substantial success. There has been muc'il disgust in the rank and file of the party with tiftf Republican candidate, and the desire of the psopleof the country for a change in adminis'ra tive methods has had its chilling effect en Buckeye Republicans. A majority of 15,000 for the Republican ticket will prove that the Republicans have been simply able te held their own. The fierceness of their struggle and the des peratien of their methods in trot ting their candiitate from tewu te tewu te inspire thelr party allies has no parallel in Ameiican politi cal history. If they de succeed in pull ing the Ohie chestnuts out of the Ore by a majority In the twenty thousand, it will only transfer the battle te New Yerk and Indinna, where Republic in defeat is a certainty. The Railroad Dispute The Pennsylvania and Baltim ie & Ohie railroads have get into court with their quarrel. The latter carried the former before the Judge, claiming that its rights hud been invaded by the at tempt of the former te refuse ir. proper facilities for dispatching ita pissengers te New lerk. Ne doubt this was the case. It is natural te railroad com panies te disregard the rights of etheri in exercising their great powers. The Baltimore & Ohie read is ue Jen disposed thin the I'jausylvani i te fellow Its own arbitrary will when it has the chance Like oilier rallrea l com panies it has little regard for the law, aud nutters little from it, because these whom it injures de net often care or dare te appeal against sj powerful an antagonist te the courts. It is an expeusive busi ness. The public are te be congratulated that in this caie- two railroads are an tagonists in court. Heretofore it has beeu the aim In railroad rivalries te keep out of court, Knewing that their metli odsarese often etteuslva te the law, they have been shy of seeking it as a tri bunal te atittls their duputes. The Uil tlmore anil tlie Pennsylvania reads have, however, become, se enraged with eacli ether that their pru dence has forsaken them, and they give the United States ;eurt the opportunity te apply te '.hem law which will be apt te ? as dtstresjlng in the long run te Jenenu It will be disgusting te the J.r.

The - read has draggel in the Pennsylvania read, doubtless with no ether intent than te held it at bay in its hostile demonstration against its passen ger trallie, until the new read is finished which connects Baltimore with the Beading read at Philadelphia. But it may find it easier te lay held than let go, Judge McKennan has an opportunity te knock these railroad managers' heads tegetherand beat into themsome concep tion of the rights of the iceple; which, probably, be will be iucllued te t i!e advantage of. Candidate -St. Jenx is making a very geed impression. He is convinced that he Is leading the van el tne roesi important lssue of the day, nnd the ene upon which in the future the great po litical parties will be divided. lie ie cards himself as the forerunner of a com- ling revulilen against thq use of liquor as a beverage, jusi as uirney ami Fremont rode iu the van of the nntl-shvcry crusade. And Mr. St. Jehn may be right. There is no doubt whatever that Intemperance is a great evil, Just as slavery was. It is an injury te the country nnd its institu tions, as slavery was. Slaves were held under a rieht guaranteed by the law, just as liquor is con sumed under the law's protection. It may bs that the disgust of the people at the evils arising from an unrestricted use of intoxicating bever ages may some day riseHe a height that will abolish them as slavery was abel ished. Who can loll? Ne ene ; but every ene can tell that the way te avoid such a result is te take away the chance of such a popular commotion by pro pre venting the evil results that every man admits attend the trafllc in liquor. We knew no better method te de tnls than the high license system, which will re strict the number of places where liquor Is sold nnd guarantee the decency of the business. Lict it be remembered that Ohie,and net the nation, votes te day. TinioueiiocT the country the pseple manifest a disposition te let the "People's Party " ssverely aloue.

Cauley feuad out where she was working and tried te get work in the came factory. Miss Bensen was rmch annoyed by him, and came home crj mg, telling her mother that if he get work iu the factory she would loave it. Cauley en Thursday last called upon Mrs. Bonsen, aud in the raet extravaeant laoguage protested his leve for ber daughter and begged her censcut te his marriage with he-. Mrs. Benen, who thought the boy te he of unsound mind, firmly but geutly re fused, and told him te leave tbe heuse, forget the m-itter and net te call again. TUE SHOT IN CKNTKE SQUARE. Nothing mero was seen of Canley until Meuday eveninf:, when Mamie and her friend Alieo MeManus, after iiuitting work and ou their way home, saw him en North Queea street. They hurried away from him as fast as they ceu'd, and paid no attention te his call te them te step. On reaching Ceutre Square they hastened across the Belgian blocks, instead of go ing around en the sidewalks, but Lerlng was at their hoots, again demanded thorn te atop nud en their refusal te de se pointed a revelver at Miss Bensen. By this time th"y were clesa te the monument, near whieh several men were standing. Miai Bensen ran behind oae of the men and ctonelmd down. Cauley was along side of her in an instant and fired at her. She hcrearacd, and for au instant sank te the ground, and Cauley no doubt suppos ing be had killed her, ran up Eist King street, pursued by several men, ene of whom. Jehn W. Baokett, came up with him before be reached Christian street ard attempted te arrest bim. CAVLEY SHOOTS HIMSELF. Cauley turned upon him with a revolver in each hand, and aimed ene of thorn at Backett's breast, but instantly appeared te change his mind, as he placed the mnzrjpjtyliisri breast and llred, and y tnrew awav the two pistols."?00 r which i-i nu ".r.na" and the ethe7 a "leung America," double aotien.and beft of tlltm iiiuy iM.-eu, except the two chamttT.nai had beeu emptied in sheeting-Miss Bens? anu nimsejt. Uan'ey sank unconselous te the ground, aud was instantly surrounded by a throng that had gathered iu consequence of the shoot sheet ing. He was carried into Hein. Itsh s drug store, and thence te the station heuse, whoie be was laid upon a settee and his wound examined by several physicians, who had been EtirameiJcd. It was found that the pistol ball bad enforce! his right brexst, passed iute thecavity of the thorax and probably passed through the lower part of the right lung. Ne attempt was made te prebe for tbe bill, and in a short lime the wounded man was taken te the hospital. Meantime Miss Bensen, badly wounded and greatly frightened, was taken te her raethnr'H hema en Sjuth Queen street.and Dr. Urban was seut for. He found that she bad bcen shot in the llesby part of the thigh, near the hip, and that tbe ball bad passed downwards, peuctratinf te a depth of eight icches The ball was probed for and extracted without much dldisulty. Vltheugh the jeuug lady was much pros pres pros trated.ne parmancnt danger h apprehended from tbe wennd. This morning Mrs. Bensen made a for mal complaint of felonious asEault against Cauley, aud be will bave a bearing before Alderman Spurrier, should be ever re cover tuffleienily from bis self iutlietcd wound, as is new probable, os he is io ie parted te day te be doing bette.' than was last night oxpected. THE YOUNO MNS flTRANQC CUtKER, Theso who knew Cauley best bave no doubt that be is of unsound mind. His murderous assault en Miss Bonsen is net his first serious cflense. Some months age he atteraptcd te feloniously assault a roputable married lady. He was arrested and locked up, but en account of his youth, and a bolief that he was of unsound mind, the oase was net preseed against him, and he was discharged en entering bail for his geed behavior for six months. We have heard nf bis having made love te another respectable young Jady of this city, nnd en being repulsed, threatened te kill her.

La3t evening Murphy & Mack's Comedy Four company played te the same kind of business that all shows have had bore lately. The hcuse was net mero than half full, but the audience was delighted with the performance which is excelleut. Charles Jereme and Anule Boyd opeued the show withn sketch entitled "Burles quelng" iu whieh both were nble te display their talent. The Jackley's followed with their table act, which is something new and very difficult. Harry Merris, the popular Qcrman comedian, made a great hit with his singing, skating and funny falls, The Wesley Brethers were clever iu thelr songs and dances and Leocze is a skillful juggler. The great Shaw is ene of the llncnt foraale im- .Cfjwxjaters evor seen here ,& dressing wal crAtti - ahil many peeple who saw bim are te day under the Tpressten that he was a woman.

The cemcnfitltlttl " Ketch Oa," which wound up the enter tainment, is very funny, with Murphy and Mack in tbe principal characters, and for u half hour it served te keep the audience rearing.
