Here they are talking about him as a candidate for the Legislature at Columbus. Ta true story ot Low KJwin Forrest (the horse, not the man) lost the Utica race a year ago is told in a dispatch from New York at least it is the story that was sworn to.

Hates, Wuf.eler, b'rtegUAK and Schckz are all to be in Ohio during tiie campaign. It would save much wear and tear of I'i ll- Maji roiling stock if the Government could be "located" in this t-'tate.

It is not at all improbable that Vice-Presi dent WuiELER will make si-eeches in th State during the campaign," says un Ohio exchange.

it it is of no use. Hates can not till his promise to make the Vice-Presidential office umount to something without dying. Tliosg peo, le who regard lightly the fact tliat chp.i.ma.v can deposit uiid isdeoait-ing more than in a few favored Katioaal IXirAs, have not closely calculated the margin oiihorn.w ing without interest and loaning it at six, eight or ten per cent. The Franklin County Kepublicans will meet to-day to nominate a County Tirket. i'ifteen persons have been for the three positions in the Legislature to te fiilctl.

The list contains soti.e gixxl material, but ont of it one of the worst tickets in the county could lc tiiaiiiifnctured. The "great moral" victory in Coluinlms last spring ha aroused the ollicc-holding spirit among the Jpuulicuns. Th Republican theory of this Govern ment, as evinced by Republican in tiie extra ses-sicn of Congress and by the arguments of the Bcpuhliean organs everywhere, is that all the riirlits of States are de stroyed because one alleged privilege, that of secession, has been confessedly annihi lated. A State has no right to secede, argue the Republicans, and, therefore, the State has no rights remaining. Hates will have to write a new speech before lie comes to Ohio this summer, or else fall -back on his speech of 1875, when th common-school were represented to be trembling 'in the Papal presence.

His con ciliatory remarks, made while swinging around tbe Southern circle, will not fit the present emergency. Mr. Cha.xpleb and others who have the Republican campaign in charge don't want any body conciliated. It is announced that the President intends pending the greater portion of the month ol September at his Home in Fremont. This will be very convenient for the Republican Executive Committee.

Tbe course of the Republicans in this campaign is now Tery uncertain; there ia confusion as to the issues which shall be discussed. It may become expedient to call on Hates sudd, ply for one of his brilliant ef forts on the Pope's toe. He has as much right to violate the spirit of the civil service order as Siiermax or rxm It has been more than three months since Mayor Jacob was inaugurated, and the cash account of his predecessor in otVicc, Mayor JlooaE, still xeinaiiis uncllled with the city. It is believed by cxjerts who have had ac cess to the Look that some flO.CXX) or even $12,000 ore due the city for licenses paid to iiayor Mooug's clerk. The city docs not, or at ler-st it ought not to, recogniza a ch-rk in a public office as its debtor, but should deal with the officer himself.

If Colonel De Beck Is not prepared to show up, a call should be made on Ex-Mayor Mooke for a settlement. This thing has gone on long enough. If somebody is a defaulter, it is well enough to unu uui nuu iv is. Tub scope of tho investigation of the Con gressional elections in this county in lavs aeems to bo misunderstood. TUe investiga tion directed by the House of Representa tives was b.iscd on a memorial to Congress.

This memorial we print elsewhere. It will seen that the major part of the memorial relates to the manner in which tbe. Fed- al Election Laws were executed in i i 1 1 i i I i hun snu nil vi 11 I luvrj iije cireii'ill of 1878. The memorial was referred to a aeleet Committed of the House, consisting of even members, and the resolution empowers and directs said Committee ''to Investigate and report to the House the mode and effect of the execution of the law io rela tion to the duties of Supervisors and Deputy Marshals in said election at Cincinnati." a nay no authority is given to investigate ber elections or elections elsewhere. Co viitte will be impatient to finish their work, and should not bo intimidated in th beginning.

This Deputy Marshal Law was not tried in QJiio till last year, and the people of the State will be glad to know the details of its We are informed that Messrs. Bcttibwobth and Yoo.io are 'industriously engaged in the attempt to conceal some of the beauties of the workings of these statutes from the public gaze, and that they are doing this from native modesty. If these laws are exceedingly righteous, those gentlemen should not seek to buy or scatter witnesses, but should go out into the byways and hedges and compel them to go before the Committee to testify, instead of driving them away from the Committee into the byways and hedges. The members from the First and Second Districts are afraid of the dazzling splendor of their Deputy Marshal Laws. Tm Republican managers throughout the State are polling the townships apd wards of every county and city, carefully taking the politics and rationality of each voter, and whether he was a soldier or not.

It is no difficult matter to explain why they manifest their anxiety as to the question of military service. Foster's military record is so brilliant a page of the history of the late war that it is eminently proper that he should want to keep in mind the soldiers who foutiht witn him, and as he makes his pilgrimage through the State recall to the veterans incidents in the camp and field when he stood shoulder to shoulder with them in the hour of the country's danger. But why he should want to learn the nationality of each voter is a harder ques tion to solve. Are not all voters American citizens? Is it possible that Mr. Foktii and his managers propose to inaugurate a Know Nothing warfare on the foreign-born ele ment of society? We print this morning an excellent talk of Hon.

Milto Satlkr with a representee live of the Ekqciker upon current political topics. Mr. Savlek was one of the most ac complished, as he wag one of the most be loved, members of the House of Representa tives, in which he served with distinction six years. He is not a garrulous man, but whether in the chair or on the floor he was acknowledged by both sides of tbe House to be its strongest member in all matters re luting to its parliamentary conduct. He is prudent and sagacious politician, and his comments mon political affairs East and West are interesting and- valuable.

He Fjeaks of Tildex, and Thurman, and Batard, and of Ohio. He is confident of the election Generals Kwino aud Rice. He be lieves that the controlling issues in this Ohio canvass will be the question of currency and finance; though he modestly says that he differs with dis tinguished Democrats in this opinion. Mr. does not underrate the questions relating to civii liberty that have expanded into present notice because of the extra session of Congress, lie would be one ol the last of Democrats to do Pending the Appropriation Bills in the last Congress.

whose failure to pass caused the extra session, Mr. Satleb was In tbe chair, or wa the parliamentary leader of tbe House on the lloor. He is both conservative and brave. He does not needlessly offend bis opponents by 'expressing his opinions ob noxiously; nor does he offend his friends by needless timidity. He speaks splendidly in lavor of "a complete restoration of the silver dollar of 412 grains to its former place in the currency of the country," and be opposes a system of banking and issue, which, "unlike any other system ever devised, enables those engaged in it to draw interest on their debts." He describes the Deputy Marshal law fitly.

The hint that lie gives that the Ohio Legis lature might authorize a Democratic Gov ernor to uppoii.t au unlimited number Of Deputy Marshals, also to receive $5 a dav ior ten days, paid out of the State Treasury the nature of these Federal election laws. Mr. relations to the investigation of the last Congressional elections in Ham ilton County had been misunderstood. takes occasion in this interview to set himself right. Mr.

Satleb had not chosen to make a contest for the seat occupied by Bem Bi'ttebwobth but to contest an election is me and to investigate an election for purposes other than, those of a contest is quite another thiinr. It may be easy to show that Smith has no equitable titlft to a scat in Congress, while it may not le eay to show that one thousand men would have voted for Jones, his competitor, but for proved improter influ eiices. An election nit it lit be set aside with out seating a minority candidate. In this investigation it is a Federal election law that chit fly on trial. If Messrs.

Bi'TTerwobth and Yoiso are incidentally annoyed it must le regarded as one of the accompaniments ol excessive political activity. Mr. Saylkh's concluding statement will be read with satisfactions itliin and without his District. He ill take the stump vigor ously for Ewiso and Rice, and is at the com runnd of tbe party "whether as a private or any other position to which it may assign him." His constituents Lave not lost their regard for him. Tn New York Evening Post "suspects that the Cincinnati Enquirer will fairly boil over, so to speak, about the 6th of August." It says of xxn that: A noble snd uncontrollable wrath will be aroused by tbe fact that tbe American Bankers' As -odstiou have actually resolved to bold an aunuai on Ten tion on the day mentioned at Bar -toga Springs Whe the minions of a moneyed lespoUsm formed an uutioly alliance to arther their wicked schemes against tbe prosperity of tbe country and the happiness of It people.

It was naturally supposed that their proceedings would be secret; that thet would meet at midnight with masks, aud dark lanterns, and grips, and passwords; that ttiry now. with matchless etlrontery. openly announce a gath ering of their piratical clan in br ad daylight, at oue of the be I known places in the Celled Slates. is alarming proof of their rapid growth in audacity and strengtn." The Post is mistaken. Our "noble wrath" kindled not so much at the things that are done in secret, as at the things that are done in open day, without exciting the indigna tion of such intelligent journals as the New York Post.

BuSslo aud Rochester, and shown such wonderful speed that not only was bis great superiority to his tica. opponents conceded, but be was pronounced by many of the be jW'lges the fastest horse in Ihe world. Before tbe race at Utica he was at first a prime favorite over the field, but before the trotting began tbe brought more money than be did.

and Ibis was the case even after he had won tno first huat in tho most commanding style. In the second heat he broko al the flu turn, a id was left behind the fla. but tbe judites caused bim to start again, removing Gus ldden from Lis scat in tbe sulky, and Merrill Higbee there. But the latter failed to score a heat although the horse exhibited such marvelous sissed that Cbarue Circe a bought bim after tbe race for 116 000. Tbe job wts both apparent ana transparent, and eieiUMi the most indignant comment from the reporters and other parties, but tho Judges took no action In tho matter.

The hub-bub ral ed by others, however, made tho matter so prominent that the President' of the National Trotting Assr-cation, Hon. Chas. W. Wo-illey. of Cincluuati.

soon directed its Secretary. Mr Thomas J. Vail, to u-e his utmoot ene gies to unearth any fraud that could be reached. Secretary Vail was authorized to employ detecuva skill, and tne result has been au entire expose ot the whole job. The evi deuce in the case Is overwhelming, and Wilkes' Spirit of tbe Times contains five pages and a half of interesting and shocking details.

Fiom the mass of testimony presented liefnre the Board tho following ansuacui will give your readers a p-etty fair idea of the enormity of the job which patience and bit ill have so unearthed: James Golden, of who dr ve Dick Moore In this race, snore that the day before the race EJward Pyle ca tnee to him and said: "Let's gel Forrest rhut out to moimw.

This money got fiom Geo. A. Ayer, of Bjstoii, owner of Dick Moore. It was upon the strength of this and the conclusions deducted from the oral testimony that the Bord took the decided sten expel lug R. C.

This ummary snd sweeping action caused fearful raitliiig among the dry bones when th Ii ard of Review met at Hartford last Tbey were enubled 10 act from Ibe ensuing mas of cou fesiions, cfTldavits and testimony.

He Won the i.iurth money end received it, Edward won first money, and Darby woo thud money, which waa put with the winnings of the Combination.

The amount thus divided (To riled tj each the payment of something more than four hundied Oollars; or, in other words, each of the six parties to the com bination received something more than nine buu- ed dollars, including money slaked and win uings.

July 18. The general downward ten dency which has pervaded the wheat market dur ng the past week or ten days culminated to-day in a fclgnntic collapse, bordering close to a good old iashioned panic. To a large number of the operators it waa indeed a Biack Friday, and ithnugh but one absolute failure was an nuunefd, that of a comparatively anim poi taut firm whose bus ness was mostly confined to operations in provisions on Idunthern account. trie air was blue wlih rnmors of approach ng dis aster. It was freely circulated cn the curbstone in the mat one opeiaior bad lost between 73,000 aud U00.

and there were stories of win nings oi 10,000 to 115.000 by other operators who happened to be on tbe lucky side of the deal. Oue of the peculiarities of the day was the scarcity of cash wheat. The arrivals of No. 2 spring dded up OLly Queen car-loads, about 6.O1O bush els. sod an enterprising exporter exnerieueed 5 rest difficulty in obtaining a cargo ot 20 000 bushels for Canadian account.

Their efforts Pi duplicate Ihe were fruitless. This would iudicaie that tbe S.Goo.Ouo of No. 2 t-prlng now in store in this city Mre in the hands of strong holders, men who are Ciianciully able to carry the grain without being upon for additional margins by the bankers. The inference seems pretty pla 11 that the cuh wheat is held either by tbe combination which manipulated the Juue corner, or has into tne hands of annttier syndicate with equal finaneUl ability and tenacity of purpo-e. Thl-latler hypotho-t is, however, less likely than the former.

The dc.il has every appcara.ice of a whip-iw. Here. snd there were to be seen indications that the combination which ran the June deal took advantage of the high prices which they realized and put out a largo line of shorts for July at the figures then current. So cleverly hd tho theu "longs" managed tho operation that they v.rtual.y controlled every of No. 2 spring wheal that was in sight, either in this country or en roufs for Fur pe, and as the who had been scooped looked over the ground it became pretty eviJent to them that their only salvation was to fl ip over and join tbe bulls which tr.cy accordingly did.

Tbcy took on iountiesi thousands at prices ringing from 93 cents to tl 04 for July, not knowing where it came from until the brokers through whom the trades were made disclosed their principals or unloaded on them the wheat. The latter they did cot expect until to- nard the eud of the month, and when some of the pilous wore dumped upon tnem then arose tbe question. What will we an witn ItT The only course open, for very few of tnem had sufficient money to pay fur tho receipts aud store them away, was to seil the stuff for what they could and pocket the additional loss. Into whose hands the grain will finally eo Is matter of some conjecture, yet there are many wbo da not hesitate to say tnct the receipts will eventu ally fi a resting-place with the original owner. the syndicate which manipulated the June corner.

Another reason is assigned by many. Tho crop reports Iron the spring wneat districts are of the most assuring character. The yield promises to be be icons, and of a character superlo: to lhat of la year's harvest. The weather is all that could be desired for the ripening, grain and in the cour-e cf two weeks or so the early threshings will begin to make their appearance. Tho new cop.

The ma ket during the day was very irregular, with a general tendency to a lower range of vslucs.

The option closed at 92c. September deliv enes were equally unsettled, and ranged from 9oie. to 92.c closing at about Slc On the curbstone in tbe afternoon the market was more demoralized than on 'Change. From some my-tenous source tne news was quietly promulgated tbat to-day inero would be large deliv eries of No. 2 on option tales mads at prices run ning all the way from 98 cents to (1 04.

Tbe bear. who bad kept pace with tbe longs," but on tbe other side of the road, took advantage ot the situation aod bam mered away to their heart's content. Late in tbe afternoon they had beaten the market for tbe Au gust o(ti to a decline of nearly six cents from the closing price of tbe day previous, and at this figure, or In Its immedute neighbor hood, it was possible to have purchased either July, August or all the year options. From this figure, however, there was a rebound toward 5 p. and August options gradually rose to cents, with moderate sales, and at the close there were more buyers than sellers at S'Ji cent.

There was more than the usual amount or mar gins called for during the day and the telegraphic wires were burdened with dispatches calling for drafts and instructions. Ot prominent commis sion bouse d-opped eighty dispatches hi the Western Union office at oue fell swoop. What will be the course ot event depends very largeiy on the owners of wheat now lu store. If they conclude to make free deliveries on the July option another hammering of the bears will be the result, ana tne byndlcate can buy the property back at much less than tbey sold It for. The changes iu tbe market for other articles of produce were comparatively light ATLAS! A.
