Cincisxati is fast filling up with Democratic repeaters from Baltimore and other cities, preparatory to tbe election oa tbe 14. b inst. Tec idea is to carry tbe legislative ticket by frond and thus secure a Democratic U. S. Senator, all hope of electing a Democratic Governor being well nigh abandoned. )JnwawaaMawawaWWwanJBWBwawa For ten years the Democrats bare controlled tbe finances in upwards vf thirty of tbe counties in Ohio. In tweuty-one of these counties tbe Treasurers Lave managed to steal more tban a million dollars within that time, and less than 6:1 per rant, has been recovered from the sureties of the thieves for the use of tbe people. It is not to be ondercd at that tbe tax payers ate getting tired of "Democratic home rule. The buaineea boom is daily swell ing throughout the cocniry. Prices are advancing daily. Tbe hum and roar of machinery are heard every where. Farmers are boppy at tbe prospect of feeding not only our own people but one-third of Europe, and (.killed labor is meeting with a liberal reward. The coming winter will witness such contented and plentiful homes as this country has not beheld for several years. Mr. iiARR tbe Democratic candi date for State Treasurer is busy writing letters telling the people what an honest man he is, and what reforms be will institute in the Treasury when Le is elected. Mr. Butler, our candidate, knows that it is not neceesary for bim to make any promises. His record speaks for bim, and he known also that Barr is only wasting his wind, and that he will not come withia twenty thousand votes of reaching the Treasury. The attempt to murder the Tost Master at Clackville, South Carolina, is only another illustration of "States rights." It is conceded that the National Government -only can ap point postmasters, but here is a very determined claim that the State authorities, or persons backed by that authority can remove them by shooting. It remains to be seen whether the authorities at Washing ton will submit to this new interpreta tion of the great Democratic doctrine Thet must be getting a little shaky down south about that "solid Democratic party," as the Winns- boro, South Carolina, Nciet calls for a convention to adopt stringent rules for primaries, allowing no one to vote except those who can prove that they voted the straight Democratic ticket at the last election, and will also swear to support the nominees. South Carolina must lock to Ler laurels. There is a much solider Democratic party ia this county. A few gentlemen meet fa General Coffroth's office and settle upon a ticket, a convention goes through the form of ratifying it, aad the solid party votes it blind and solid. This is a much simpler plan than holding primaries and swearing voters to support the ticket, and we commend it to the South Carolina wing of tbe party. Let them send for our ''scien tific politician," if they want to learn a thing or two. A mono the receptions given to,Gcn eral Grant in San Francisco last week, was one by the Confederate Aoldiers. To them be made the fol lowing sensible little speech : Gentlemen : It baa afforded me great satisfaction and plcaiore to observe the very cordial reception I have received here, and especially1 the welcome coming from the gentle men you represent. If you have traveled aroand the world as I have, for several yeara past, yon would Appreciate, like rae, the value of our common country mora completely than any man who stays at borne, i You would be everywhere gratified to see that we are recognized by all the nations of the earth ia a higher eight than our own people imagine.

The total export of petroleum from tbe United Slates ia tbo mo&tL of July was over 50,000,000 g&Ilons, of tbe aggregate value of 4,233,461. Some idea can be formed from this of tbe vast magnitude this tra.de hup assumed. SotTu Carolina has begun the fchot-gun policy. Oa Monday Fred erick Nix, postmaster "at Blcekville, was febot down while delivering let ters in Lis office, tbo atsastia firing through tbe delivery wiadow.

The Republicans arc sure to ton trci both branches of the next Cali fornia Legislature. Of tbe 40 Sena tors, 23 are Republican?, ! Demo crats and 9 Workiugmea's candidates. Of the 60 members of tbe House, the Republicans have certainly elected 41, tbe Democrats 13, ail others 24, cot heard from 2. The figures tell tbe whole Etory ; the excess of specie imports over exports at New York for tbe past twelve weeks was $25,300,314.

And yet, like tbe fellow who ato green per simmons, not oae of thum wi'.l knew after the second Tutsda7 ia October, whether he "was whisllirr or eingia'." The people of Ohio are cot Yezooa. Besides, tbey are too bu?r in tbe work-sbop3 and on tbo farm to listen toasetofmea who are trying to persuade tbem tbat tbey are miser able.

Tbey included 2,420,032 bushels cf wheat, 9'.)7,83C bushels of corn, HO.olC bushels of rye, and 10D.CCT barrels of flour. Tbe figures indicate tbe the mighty volume of the business boom tbat La3 set in. The name of U. S. Grant upon a Republican ticket would be equal to a quart of "soothing syrup" poured down the throat of every "Brigadier." Yoa could "put him in hislitUe bed," and he would go to sleep without a kick.

He then proeeaizi to say that "tbe vital issue before tie country js tbe contest between tata Rights and .Consolidation" ; and ia further deCnklcs of tbe issue to declare that "it was fur self govern- meni mat tne states aecuiccd tneirj independence aid fought untii tley were severally acknowledged to be free and independent nations."

To La ton this con- Bumatioi ke hopes some one 7111 be selected "who aaa to political disa bilities to obstruct bis admittance to the Senate, and against whom there are no bitter prejudices to impair Lis usefulness.'' In other words tbe oliject of the Democratic party cf Mifisissifpi is to hasten the vindica tion of tLe principles which they fail ed to establish by rebellion, chief of which is that tks Ciatea are 'free and independent nations."

For fccme time prericus to the Post mistress' removal, it bad boea diili celt and often dangerous, for Repub licans either to send or receive poliu cal letters. Letters to Republicans of any prominence were held and not seat at all, and frequently packages of political dccumeat3 for KepuUli cans were opened and scattered about tbe office for loafers to pick up. Oa two occasions those to whom seen documents were seat were threatened because such matter had been received Dy tt;em, aad occe a Republican wa3 met ia tbe street by oae cf ibe rowdies of the town, who drew from oae of L:s pockets a pack age of documents wLich had bee a received at tbe postollicc for the man thus assaulted, but not delivered, and at the same time drawing a pistol from another pocket, ho gave him notice that such business must fa-top. When the Postmaster-General re ceived the report of these things he immediately removed tbe Post mistress. Senator M. C. Butler pro tested against tbe change, and in sistcd tbat even if it was decided upon, Nix ought not to be appointed, as to was very objectionable to a majority of the citizens. As Boon as it was found that the department cauldnot be induced lo revoke its action, a conspiracy was formed to assassinate tbe new Postmaster, and the attempt on the ICth inst. to shoot him in tbe back vas the result. Though tbe local authorities refused even to arrest the would ba assassin, be will be arrested by United States officers upon warrants from a Com missioner.

They have cause of fear, and it is nnfortanate for them that thev have not tbe pbiloso phy and sagacity to conceal it ; but tbey lack both and hence tbey be come objects of commisseration, for they suffer much and they have no power to bide it from view.

These day?, goiog long the streets of Washington, you can almost tell a man's politics.

"Liars should, above all things, have good memories." The case in pcint ia which I desire to call to mind especially, occurred during 1S57, in the first vear of Buchanan's administration. Judge Jeremiah S. Black was his legaladvieor I believe at that time, and no one in Somerset county can doubt his fealty to the Democratic idea. What was known as tbe Kansas war was then in pro gress. Several citizsns ot Connect! cut, among whom were President Woolsey and Professor Sullivan of Yale College, addressed a letter to President Buchanan, complainisg that Governor W alser was employing sol diers to enforce the execution of laws in that Territory which had never been enacted by the people of tbe Territory. To this the President made answer, somewhat elaborately, affirming the validity of the territori al government of Kansas, and among other things he said : "It is tbe duty of tbe President to employ the troops, if necessary, ia defending the convention while en gaged in framing a constitution, and in protecting voters in the free exer cise of their rights 0 suffrage."

Picket. Ibe Prosper la Oala. Washington, Sept. 24. Tbe latest advices at Republican head quarters her, from Ohio, state that everything has been prepared to place it in tbe Rapublicaa cjluma along with Maine and California. Tbe reports from many of the doubt ful counaes are extremely encourag ing, showiug that tbe strength drawn from tbe Republican party by the Greenback movement has been com pletely regained 5 that aa ective in terest in the campaign has been awakened, and that there is nonr no doubt that the full rote of the party can be brought out. In tbe agricul tural districts the Democrats are daily losing strength. The good crops and tbe general revival of busi ness, the last of which is considered to be due in a great measure to the wise administration of the Govern ment by tbe Republican party, has been a most powerful campaign doc ument, especially when contrasted with the course of tbe Democratic Congress during the regular and ex tra sessions. The reports further state that the only danger now to be apprehended is the Republican voters may become overconfident and fail to turn oat fully ba tbe day of election ; that the remainder of tbe campaign will be devoted to preventing each a disaster by impressing on the local committees tbe importance of having the full strength of the party muster ed to witness the downfall of Democ r&zy jn the "Buckeye" state. ratal Ball rand A e Ideal.

BniDtiEPoKT, Ca, Sept. 24 A shocking tragedy occurred iu tbo vil lige of Sirat'ord this morning. Rev. David L. Lauosbury, rectcr of Christ Churcb, was shot by Lis wife as he lay asltep, and was i ruu oily killed. A corooer's jury w tuoinioucd and assembled a: 8 o'clock, a m Mary Cummings, a servant, testifa thm she has lived ia tte family 7 weeks. Tne relations of tbe bu-bsod ad wife were ex -ptioaally pleajat. Sne knew Mrs. Louosbury to be an in valid. Mrs. Lounobary had remark ed to witness tbe previous night, say ing Mr. Lounsbury desired to have au operation performed ; butbe bad refused, aad had aked if he could make her; when be replied "If you don't I will p-it you out." I heard a noise about 5:30 o'clock; I went to the door and met Mrs. Lounsbury, who said, "I have killed my hus band." Annie -May, a bright girl of 11 years, tbe only child cf tbe de ceased, waa awakened by tbe noise of a revolver. She went down stairs and shook ber father, then dressed and went for a physician. Her mother had been more ill than usual the previous evening. Dr. A. S. Al len probed the wound and ascertain ed that tbe ball had entered the base ofthebraio. two inches belo the occipiul protuberance and an inch to the left of the medial line, passing obliquely upward. The pistol was a cheap thirty-two revolver. From a Udy friend of the family and mem ber of the parish, it was learned that Mrs. Lounsbury purchased the re volver ia New Haven a year ago, on account of timidity consequent upon an attempt to burglarize tbe Louse. She had concealed tbe knowledge of its purchase from her husband. She is a lady of very full habit aad sub ject to rcsbes of blood to the head. bhe remembers of Laving an attack of tbat kind in the night. The de ceased rose and got Ler a drink of water, after which she recollects nothing until the deed was done. She is a sufferer also from neuralgia. Mr. Lounsbury was nearly thirty six years of 8ge, and a graduate of Trinity College. Mr. and Mrs. Lounsbury have been located at Stratford for a year and a half, dur ing which time tbe rector made many friends, but his wife not being in tbe habit of receiving callers, is almost a stranger to the members of tbe par ish. She is very much prostrated by the shock, and declines to converse, not knowing what to say. There is said to have beea iasaaity ia h?r family. Tbere seems to be little ground for doubt tbat the deed was done during a fit of temporary insan ity, caused by bodily diseases and excitement, incident to tbe proposed operation to which she objected. The coroner's jury rendered a verdict that the deceaser1 came to his death by a pi-U'l shot ia tbe bauds of his wife, the act being committed during a condition of temporary derangement of mind, occasioned by disease.
