The last one is always apt te be counted as the hottest ; and probably Ohie haa net really been se Much excited as she seems te htive been. The tour of Mr. Blaine through the state was made with intent te stim ulate his partisans ; and every effort has been made te that end. These endeav ors reacted upon his opponents, and the consequence was a stirring up of the whole state and the biggest vote ever .polled. Ohie believed that it wa3 noting , sv great .part in deciding the national battle, and doubtless tbe people enjoyed the distinction sbe has had. Though if they .were wise they would abandon the October state honors te secure the October tranquility of her sister states. The state really has net done anything towards deciding tbe November Issue. It it had gene against Blaine it would have settled it ; but as it has only done what it was gen erally thought it would de, it leaves the whole question open for the answer et New Yerk, which new steps forward te say whether or no her governor shall ba the president Her decision is mere confidently expected te be In favor et the Democratic, ticket than that of Ohie was pre dieted te be for the Bepublicau. The two rarties start out in the race te day with the Democracy in the lend. The Ohie Republican victory is fairly offset by the West Virginia Democratie result. Blaine went into bath states, and both were made the battle ground. It was thought that West Virginia was given up by him. after the inspection he made of it, and the resolve reached te stake everything en ,Ohle. The result confirms this idea of the Republican endeavor. West Virginia was left te its choice and came te the Democratic besom. Ohie recehed the, whole down pour of the collectienstorn the New Yerk Goulds, wjjese" pockets areimeresttfl-ja-CTaTne's electieu. The money that carried Indiana four ye.irs age, went into Ohie te day and was expended for thd Republican cause by the same expert, Dudley. Indiana's mouth is cot open auy longer for tbe October greenback floods, aud Ohie is her thirsty successor. A fallen Borough. Te recall words of praise uttered in all sincerity is an unpleasant tusk, aud jet the developments in the case of the municipal authorities of West Chester versus " reck'l-aO0' " would eem torequire this disagitA course of action. Alrpndv It. lm TSL COnclu slvely shown that Cblef Burgess was a model eflicer of his kind for all succeeding generations. His boldly expressed determination te put down the performance of " Peck's Bad Bey," even te the extent of arresting all who might participate in the performance, excited our warmest admiration. The power of the press was exerted te held up his conduct as a model for all the chief executives of the boroughs of the country te fellow. But, alas for tbe frailty of human hopes 1 The fendtst expectations seem but tee often the victims of incipient decay. The latest news from the seat of war report that en Tues day when the company arrived in town, girded for the fray, the chief burgess was missing. Whether it was fear or urgent business that impelled this step is a secret locked up in the besom of the borough's chief magistrate. Te the unprejudiced mind of the future reader of history it will appear a confes sion of weakness, particularly in view of tbe fact that the municipal forces were defeated in the succeeding engage ment. In this essentially respectable commu nity the onerous duties of the chief bur gess devolve upon the second marshal In the absence of the former. The sequel will show that he is net cast in a mould ashereicashis superior, at least if tbe words of the latter are in any way iudic. atlve of his deeds. When, therefore, tbe " Bad Bey" company arrived in town, the precession, with the performing goat as the central figure, was allowed te proceed through the town unmolested. The marshal lef used the usual license fee when tendered by the managers of the show, which elicited from tbe latter an expressed determination te present the play in.spite of the municipal author t at that point the battle was borough. A little firmness ly have saved the day, but, ui waienoe, it came tee mpany paid the $20 flue li.t - Kt" Tted and tb i tiietn by an ordinance -ase, the play was present. use was packed te suffeca J!ng up the situation, is seen that the opposition jurgess acted as an excellent tiTt. thefy' ei ert tot' ablln have r j card, which brought crowds imancoef the company, en- Uer te pay tllelr .flne, and a large balance in the treas VfeKeV bLarKe33 rema'"ed at the ihibllity havith? rt would in all PI SSthe cemLeen Wd.

Tiik Democratic city campaign com mlttee, at Its meeting last evening, selected Henry Itahter as the candidate for the Assembly from the city district. The choice is'in all respects an excellent one. Mr. Rahter, is a Democrat who has never faltered in the faith, nnd his pepu lanty, founded en the esteeni in which he is held by his fellew-cttizens. as an en terprising business man, will ensure for him a large vote. The New Yerk Sun thinks that Gro Gre ver Cleveland is beateu. The Sun, as we remember, announced the same thing in the same words pending the Chicago convention ; but Grever Cleveland was net beaten, but was nominated the next day. The Sun has a habit of letting its wishes become the father of its thoughts ; which is a very bad habit for a prophet.

And yet the majority is several thousand less than it was four year age, when practicilly little effort was made. The Republican party must go. It will be pleasant feed fur rejection for the Republicans that the Irish vote in Ohu aud West Virginia adhered firmly te the Democratie party.

Mr. Curtis makes a most excellent Hebrew eharaeter, at least de far us it is understood in the world of commercial drummers. His quaint sayings iu the most comical of styles keep the audience in a continuous rear of laughter, and his unblushing assurance is very refreshing. The play was wrltteu with little regard for plot, tbe inteut being simply te bring eat Curtis' peculiar delineations. Tbe audience rapturously applauded all tbe funny sayings nud acts of Sam'l Plattriek, tbe character portrayed by Mr. uurus, ana tne cordial reception given him attests the favorite place he holds in the estimation of the loeal play-going public.
