Tbeir hatred which has ne^jj?

Tb* litter written by Gen. W. 9 Bobicbams, to the .Democratic State Central Committee of Ohio, on bis declen. sion of the nomination for Govern or, ten dered him 'by. the Democracy of that State, has just found its way Into print. It is a lengthy document,—too long for our columns,—and not' very satisfactory, we should think, to tbe Democracy or any body else. Tbe taste of General BoseORANB/in declining the nomination offered him, by .the pembcratic party, peremptorily, and then writing so lengthy and laborious a letter instructing that party as to what it ought to be, and, by implication reflecting on it for what it is not, is rather a new feature in political matters. It shows tbe fact tbftt the General is ndt' imicift of a politician.— The litter, contains some abstract views that 'Will meet the approbation of all parties and also, mtfch' that will be condemned by alh.It loOks like an attempt on tbe part of the'-Hero, of Stone 3iver." to set up a new pafty on his "own book," which is never a success. The General discusees at length the important topics of the public debt, currency, revenue and protection, class legislation, offices and tenures, executive' patronage, suffrage and the caucus syste^ These are all weighty matters and his exposition of ihetn evinces more frankness 'than wisdom or deep study. Tbe letter •vrill not answer for a Democratic campaign document in Qhio. It opposes repudiation of tbe public debt, arid goeji for t^e'speedy resumption of a specie tiasis, and ,does not faTor tho Pendleto» greenback theory. Tha acceptance ol the .'gubernatorial nomination by General Koskcrans with such a platform as he announces, in his listter, would have been a wide departure from Ihe opinions of the Democratic leaders of Ohio, and have fallen like a bomb shell in the poilitioal camp. It. was well therefore for him to retire from the front and surrender the leadership of the party in Ohio to Pbnjleton, Banne?, YalLA»»|N^HA^or' any Oliver oftfee representative'Demccratsof. teat stale. Ihere could be no Fellowship between Gen. Koskcrans and tbe Ohio Democracy alter his celebrated letter written from the front of the army during the war, and this recent letler in nowise lends to close tbe breach although apparently intended

That will do very well. We know of do human institutions that are loo good to admit oi improvement, it is to be hoped that our public schools, in tbe future as in tbe past, will grow belter and better a* the years pass a^ay. V'"7 v,i,'

The Chicago Republican thinks tbe vaunted consistencv of the Ohio Damoc--ricy is shown by tbe facility with wbica they substitute ao anti-war Democrat for war Democrat, as candidate for'Governor.

jTnEijSUon crop of 1869, so well advanced that it may be safely estimated at three million bales—half a million more than last year. Suppcsing that it nets the planters twenty-five cents per pound (greenbacks), it will bring them $300,000,000, which is more than tbey recei.v ed for tbe largest crop ever gro wn. Formerly thoy would have received less than ^200,000,000 for sucb a crop.

The Democracy of Massachusetts have nominated John Quincy Adams, grandson of the President of that name, for Governor. Tbey resolved in favor of "acquiescing in tbe results already arrived at in natiooal affairs," and against the prohibitory liquor law. Charles L. Woodbury, who presided over the nominating convention, made a speech in favor of annexing Cuba and Canada.

There being some uncertainly in the public mind as to the amount of greenbacks which Mr. Pendleton proposes to issue, the Toledo Commercial concludes it is proper to state that he is in favor of putting out now enough to eloct him Governor of Ohio, if anybody can tell what that is and if that succeeds to his expections, he will in 1872 favor nnother issue sufficient to make him President.

Democratic papers continue to parade tbe fact that General Grant, in June, 1868, instructed General Buchanan not to rfauiro the iron-clad oath of members of the Louisiana Legislature. But they are earrful to .omit all mention of tbe law subi.queutly passed, and now in force, »baoluieiy requiring this oath to bo administered. General Canby has no dispensing power iu the caso.* lie has oi:ly lo enforce the s'.atuto.

The heads of the several departments at Washington suceeodei several months 8go in reducing the clerical foica of their respective bureaus, divisions, etc., to the number con lemplated by Ihu appropriation acts. They have since discovered that the public business is bettor cared fir by the reduced force than \t was tin dor l'qela"st Administration, when there was a' continual demand for more clerks, and-it iinot improbablo that a Hirtber decrease will ba recommended at tbe rut session af Congress.

The Sopheme Court of California has rendered an important decision in support nf the real rights of women. A wife was drivei away from bef bouiu l»y her ^usband, ana had no means ol support. She broughtsuit tooimr-l him toaet aside out of his property, acquired since tbeir marriage, a sufficient amount to sustain her and her child. Under the old English law such an action would not lie, but a majority of thp £°^rt decided in favor of the wife, holding that adherence to the English law, in this or similar cases, would be a reproach to civilization. ..

The Poughksepsio '^N. Press relates tb&t when J.vusa AIadisox whs president bo was pocr, and died poor but when at the head of the G'lvernment the then "Commissioner .General of tbe Land Office" suggested to Mr. Madisoti that if be would permit i'. hy would select Irom the publicygnds, which Mr. Madison could enter, w^S^»nds as would inevitably enhance so much in value that the rise wou.'d mako him comfortably rich in bis old age, tbe answer was: "No, sir, though as a private citizen I have'the right to enter any of the public lands, while I am President of the United States I will noftouchthe public property for my own pecuniary emolument'" -«...

The Llarvards were tirst lo catch the water, and look the lead, gaining rapidly upon ibeir opponents and [nuking 45 strokes per minule Hgain«t the Osfords 40/ At Bishop's creek, throe forlons»s from tho start, the H*rvard= l«d: half ler.jfth. Gaining headway they inc:ea?rd Iheir le.td as tbey pnS'tri the Willows. Tlit-.ir pace was subsequently slackened and I lie Oiforda pulled up, but the UnrVirds Were still three quarters if t( length ahead at"'Craven foini, thrc'jquarlers of a mile from the start. Oxford now went'Oii '.villi a steidy drag, but ibe Americans rapidly increased ibeir lead, and at Crab Tree, a mile and an eighth from ihe aqueduct, were a couple of lengths ahead- Beyond here tbe Harvard* weio taken wide and the Oxfords quickened their speed, reduced the gap at tbe soap works, a mile and a hall from the start, to half a length, Tho Harvard* now pulled up with a magnificent burst to Hammersmith Bridge, a mile and three quarters, but in shooting the bridge lost the distanco they had gained.

TERRIBLE AND FATAL ACCIDENT.— Wednesday night, about nine o'clock, Michael Kirk, a miner in the employ of Stunkard & Barrick, at the McQuilkin mine, west of the city, was run over by a freight train on the St. Louis road, and literally cut to pieces. Kirk was in town during the day, and in the evening was seen going out intoxicated. It is supposed that on reaching the trestlework, two miles west of the river, he sat down on the track to take a smoke and fell asleep. The engineer saw the man lying on his face, and immediately blew down brakes, but being a down grade with a heavy train, it was impossible to stop in time.— Coroner Christy was notified, and on going out found the remains of the man scattered along the track for a distance of fifty yards. The head and shoulders were not much bruised, but the body was cut asunder at the breast and the lower parts and limbs torn in pieces. It required a full half-hour to gather up the pieces which were placed upon a handcar and brought to town at two o'clock the next morning. Kirk was a middle aged man, had no family, and was addicted to intemperance. Another fearfnl temperance lecture. —————

OCR exchanges in tho large cities are filled with accounts of cases of sun-stroke caused by the extremely warm weather we baV? hsd during tbe Its' eight or nine days. The mortality has been very great indeed, and it becomes our citizens to exercise tbe most diligent care. Thoao who csn should keep cut of tho sun, and those who c»n not do so should use the greatesl precaution. A handkerchief or cloth in the crown of the hat is said to be an excellent preventive.

CONFIDENCE GAME.—A few days since a young man of good appearance, who gave his name as John Neinschwander, called on Mr. E. Rothschild, on the west side of the public sqare [sic] representing that he was from Mr. R's former place of residence, was intimately acquainted with his relatives, etc. Mr. Rothschild was so well pleased with the young man that he invited him to take dinner at his house. During the afternoon the nice young man came in with a small package wrapped in a handkerchief, which be desired deposited in Mr. R's safe until he was ready to use the money. By-the-way he would be pleased to borrow a few dollars, as the smallest bill he had in his package was fifty dollars. Three dollars were loaned him, and he afterwards borrowed six dollars of the clerk in Mr. Rothschild's absence. Several days having elapsed and the new found acquaintance not appearing, an inspection was made of the package when it was found to contain only a lot of old papers!

Neinschwander was hunted up, introduced to Mayor Cookerly, who sent him down to Sheriff Stewarts mansion, where under bond of five hundred dollars, he is to await the assembling of the Criminal Court, where he will answer the charge of obtaining money under false pretense. —————

S STATE REFORM SCHvOL. s"

Plainfield, Ind., August 25, 1869. ^5ds. Express:—There are but few public institutions ^in tbo State more worthy of publicity, «nd none more worthy of the patroago and fostering care of* the Stale, or better calculated to do good" tban the Indiana Retorm School, near"this place, foi iTunile Senders. This is the School to wh'Ch tbe badbovs of Indiana are sent to reform tbeir past course of living and i^ain on education that will"' fit tbem to discharge the duties of life as becometh those who a.e good and uptight.-

The means used to bring about tho Jr. irable ends the School has in view in working toelevato fallen youth have long been considered as enigmatical. The ono hundred and sixteen boys who have been* admitted to tbe watchful care of the Institution to bo trained as those who are to' be men. In villages, towns and cities-: from whenco they came tbey were con-

sidered as so many reel terrors, and tbeir departure for the Reform School was looked upon as a public blessing. At the school they are received as those who have orred. A curtain is dropped between the yoqthful wanderer and his past ., ife, and he is taken to his family building', and receives his first lesson in tbe great work of reform. Ho does not know what to make of the kind treatment received at tho bands of Ibose having charge of this noble home for the wayward youth of our State. The large walls, cells, whips and cat o'nine tails" that were sup-' posed by tbo boys to be in great abundance are uot to be found, and again are they nonplussed, for they aro not used lo this staoa of affairs. The principle that evil can better be restrained by educa-. tion, kindness and deeds of love, than by fear and holding tho boys off at arms length, bas been firmly established in this school, as the rod has not yet been brought:* into use. Tbe valuablo papers that arebo gonerously contributed to tbe boys by this and other States are quite efficient aids in training and developing tbe minds of the boys. These publications are re-' ceived by the boys with thankful hoarts,1'* and th'-y take great interest in keeping* posted sbout the matter* of the day.
