Comments of tho Precs. H'Aiif the Leadtnj Journals of Various Shades of Opinion sap about the Result in Ohio. The magnet which drew the disaffected to the Republican ticket was the unmistakable ft rum ess of the party for equal rights in the South. Had tlie Republicans taken the highest ground on the currency, we believe they would have succeeded equally well and their victory would have had .! ' gieal%* valucv But the significance of the victorylie^^n tTie evidence which it affords that the people of Ohio, fairly representing tho people of the North, are thoroughly aroused us to tho tendency of Democratic rule, and are resolved to overthrow it wherever it has gained a footing.?New York Tithes. Tlifs decisive Republican triumph is of nationar interest. Besides disposing of several prominent Ohio statesmen, it will inspire courage and hope in the Republican party throughout the United States. Kvcu locally it is of considerable importance. It extinguishes Senator Thurmau's chances of reelection and puts an cud to any lurking aspiration which Ewing iuay have had to be Thurmau's successor. But these .......? ?? .n~ ??> The grent significance of the Ohio election lies in its intlucnce upon national politics anil its bearing on the selection of candidates ami the success of pnrties in the great l'rsidcntial contest of next year. It makes it impossible for the Democratic candidate to betaken from Ohio, and favors Tilden's chances of nomination by putting some of his principal rivals out of the field. Rut in proportion ns it improves Tilden's chances of nomination it diminishes his chances and the chances of any Democratic candidate for an election. If Now York should follow the example of Ohio. Tilden would simply loso his labor by intriguing any further for the Democratic nomination, and he may prefer that some other candidate should lead the forlorn hope. The result it* Ohio tends to a Republican success iu New York, and should this bo the actual ellect, Tilden may bid a long farewell to Presidential honors.?yew York Herald. All that can be asserted positively of the result in Ohio to-day is that the Republicans have failed to take that great Commonwealth out of the wavering line of States doubtful for 1880, and to plant it, ns they hoped to plant it, in the van of the Republican column, where of old it used to stnud. Mr. lllainc stands on as fair a footing to-day in Mninons Mr. Sherman in Ohio. Mr. Ewing has been beaten, as he elected to be when at the outset of his canvass he deliberately abandoned the strong ground of an outright Democratic protest ngninst the votes of President Hayes, and undertook to counter with his own financial theories the stalwart facts of a iimgnincciu narvest in me ncsi, 01 unparalleled crops at the South and or an intlowing * ",e of g?U from Europe.

This kind of Turtle is very rare so high up in the waters of the State, but we are informed that several smaller oues were c night in seins, the past year, in the san.e vicinity. We don't know that an ugly Turtle looks much like a "rare bird," but the varmint's npDcarance in these ouarters looks verv much as if it must have used wings to get over the many shoals obstructing its passage such a distance up the river. Rain at LastWe have had most welcome and beneficial rains since last Friday. Perhaps those Farmers who heve not hecu able to keep up with their cotton picking would have preferred the that rain had held of!" two weeks longer; but by thut time the oat. crop would have been lost, which, considering the short corn crop, would proven very serious loss next Spring. The Turnip crop is about ruined, and that will be seriously felt, unless sowing this late should be sncoessful.? The weather has turned quite col 1, making fires and winter clothing necessary. It is now feared that wo shall have too much rain, and greatly damage the cotton remaining in the fields. .*. A Dramatic Association.

If it would do nothing more it would crcato a more social intercourse among the young people and thereby exercise a refining and restraining influence upon our society.

Hill & Co., will occupy both stores, having entrances to each in the hack part. The corner store is 150 x 25 feet, and the next 100 x 25, with bedroom and a largo counting room in tho rear. A large skylight in tho upper store wiU give that room a light and pleasant appearance, while the large front ami bnck windows of the corner store will give ample light to that room. ???

We sincerely regret to learn that the Theological Seminary of the Presbyterian Church, at Columbia, will probably suffer a loss of from $V!o,000 to $20,000 by the failuro of J.

Thovonerable Dr. Pluiuer will,asenrly as possible, visit all the Presbyterian Churches in the State in the interest of the Seminary, and we hope his mission will result in the abundant relief of that old and useful Institution. In the mean time all who can give aid should forward it to Dr. Plumer or Ilev. Geo. Howe, at Columbia, at oncc. Every Presbyterian congregation should take prompt action upon tlio matter. ? ? Next week thero will be Farmers, their wives and daughters, frum all parts of the County, at the Fair, discussing all matters concerning their own as well as their neighbors best interests. .# ii .< 't* losultof the Primary Elootion.
