On Tuesday the Republicans and Democrats of Ohio were pitted in a State election, which was ohiefly im portaut in deciding who Is to be next U. S. Senator. On the 15th Califor nia uloeted three Judges. In this State the Democrats made no nomi nations, and the contest was between the monopolists and anti-monopolists. The forner party call themselves Re publicaus. Iowa will soon be the theatre of a hot contest between the Republicans and farmers. The form er have horetoforo carried the State for many years by not loss than 40, 000 majority. But the party has bcoomo so corrupt of late that the farmers have risen in open rebellion, and propose making a equare uncom promising fight. An idea of the strength of the farmers may be gathered from fact that they are ex pected to'.win. This will be a heavy blow to the Republicans, and will doubtless entail the loss of several neighboring States. The Republican Bolahazzars may well be frightened at the oninous words of warning. Although now enjoying almost un disputed away, they should remember that Tammanay was never so strong as just before It was crushed by ati in dignant people. New York is totter ing in the balance. Last year the administration carried everything, 'owing to tu feuds existing among the Demiorats. But the classic he rocs of Apollo Hall, and the Big Indians of Tammany have rosolved to unites and when pwans and war whoopa are commingled, the "party of progressa" will be routed from the fiold and laid on the shelf alongside of Tweed and Sweeny and Conolley. In \Massachusetts, too, the administra tion burnt its fingers severely in using Butler as a eat's paw, to control local elections. It was also recently thrashed out In California, where last year it walked over the course. An active campaign is progressing in Virginia, and the Consorvatives, if unmolested by the government, will doubtless achieve a victory, It is Lime for the Republican party, as it nigw is, to die.' It was formed for tho. abolition of slavery. It was maintained In power by the issues of the war. Rt has done someghing that arc good. It has done many things that arc bad. During 'een y'Bars it has devotod its attention principal ly to the latter category. Of all Von.. gresaes that have met since the found. inag of the republio, the last was eon fessedlf the most worthless and cor It is high time that the sceptre should pass into' othet hands. But we do not syfsh ttese to be Demoerat ic Ifdads. The Despooraoy have lived long ehough, A new party must arise from- the ruins of both the present political hbulks. Reform most be the battle ery, The erisis has arrived when men onamot afford to split hairs on abstvact theories while their peok. etm are behig rifled. We do not be lieve that the nlaqses are corrupt, but the, tare Iuerb and, su~er themselves to be made tool. of by #esigninghnaves. We trust they ase awaking to a sense of their duty. These low mntterings of diieotnt arising from all part. of the Union ar. but th. evidences of an enthralled power maki'ng aim. less effots to burst its fetters. Wben these efforts are conoentrated, a mighty upheavel will result, and a total revolution will be the oonsE quence. Old political tricks aid party incendiaries and demagnos will give way for better men. If the people are true to them' selves, this will all be accomplished, If not, we way expect military des. potismor an empire. Another Grab Game, The Uuion-fierald of Saturday contains the following : CiJust before going to press we have learned, from reliable authority, that his Excellency the Governor has expressed himself as in favor of the issue by the General Assembly, at its coming sefision, of one million dol lars in ills Receivable, for the pur pose of relieving the financial em. barrassment "of the people, brought about by the necent pame--said ills Receivable to be taken by the State in payment for taxes." It has heretofore been our idea that the Legislature was called for the avowed purpose of reducing the State debt. In the tooth of that, comes the announcement from the Radical organ that cur esteemed Governot- proposes to accomplish this much desired result by first Inoreas ing the State debt by anothet million dellar.. This plan establishes his Excellency's reputation as the great. est financier of the age. We are struok with this novelty of the soheme. It is calculated to inspire a person unlearnod In radical book-keeping with feelings of deepest awo and ad miration. The thought certainly had never occurred to us that the surest method of contraction was expapsion. If his Honor can put his scheme into suocossful practice, he will be a pub lic benefactor by inaugurating a new era in political ooonomy, Then every poor bankrupted devil who is now over head and ears in debt can free himself froin his burden and regain his credit by issuing more notes of hand receivable for dues to himself. The mtillcnium is at hand. The world is coming to an and. But, soriously speaking, we de nounee this scheme as a fraud and wholesale swindle. It is nothing more nor lo*s than a deliberate at. tempt still further to rob the people. If oov. Moses succeeds in having the bill passed, setting aside the question of constitutionality it will be an out. rage. Who will be benofited by this inoroaso of debt? The Treas urer shows by his report that an alarming defioiency of nearly a mil lion exists, besides untold sums in school certificates. Should the State issue these bills, they will beapplied digootly or indirectly to pay these claims, many of which are fraudulent, and lsued only for the aggrandise ment of Radical harpies. That is t-he only way by which they oan come into circulation. Then having onoe been issued, they will be received ini payment of taxes. The empenses of the governmwent are enormous, and to meet this an-d the Interest ordered b~y the Supremne Court to be paid on the bonds, several millions in greenbacks are needed. These greenbaoks must be forthcoming at any ratc, and any State bills will be so much extra to be collected from the people. We want no issue of bills from the present administration. They may offet some good In relieving the money market now, but their ulti mate result will be ruinous. 8ines the disastrous effort to issue the Blue Ridge bond scrip, the public will view all similar issues with suspicion, and the proposed bills would be hawked around at a discount, to be redeemed at some future daty at par. Times are hard and money is scarce, but we will try the certified bank oheeke a while longer before adopting the plan proposed by the great Pinan eler. The AgrI6utmra1 tfair-The Duty of the The coming annual Ifair of the State Agricultural Seeiety will be held during the second week In No tember. Every exortion is boing made to render it a complete sueoss. This pr emium list has been enlarged so as to offer prises for every branch of industry. The buildings have boon improved for the aeoomnmulation of viuitors andl to gratify the tastes of the lovers of the turf, splendid in, ducements have been offered for first class i'aees. The grounds have been purebased by the Joint Stoek Asso elation, into which the old soety has been merged. All these efforts to Improve the stending of these fairs has entailed a hea~vy expense on thte sasoeiation, and thils expense can only be met by the hoarty co-operation of the people at large. But few farmers in eath County have taken stock in this enter nrisa. We venture to ay that in the whole of F-itBel- tixre areenot wore tIln. than three or four members of tlge #uotiidy. 'Whiibs. a disaes t4 thejilanite " " -The farqning interest !s the only one io this' Obunty of any importance; aid improveMent in the - system of plantimg should be the earnest wish of tie thole 'omahtinityl and yet the annual fair, which are designed es PelaUy to effect this end, receive no aid fromi the people, except in the paltry amounts xpended by visitors as entanto fees. When we look at other States and see the energy of their faiters'and the interest manifested in those ethi. bitions., and th.6 contemplate the apathy existing in this State, we are forced to conclude that ouir misfor tubes are not solely due to the evils of a raseally government, but are partly owing to the listlessness of the people thezaselves, It taee - are high and labor is soarce, what reason Is there that a planter should' adhere to the old ruinous system of agtloulture *hen new and better niodes can be learned by a little observiation ? We should not be surprised to hear of some back woods farmer scratching the soil with a forked- litab drawn by a yearling steer because the -tax on iron is too great for him:to.buy-a plow. Every one will acknowledge that agriculture is baekttard, Now, as before said, these fairs are designed to serve as-dbhools to fartheis, and the larger they are the greater instruction they will afford. This instruotion wil be supplied not only by a large display of farming -implements and products but by an annual inter change of ideas by -oxperieneed agri oulturists. These fair. are huge conventions, the more effective, be cause each man cai private.ly speak out hib view' untramoled' by par lianentary 'rdles. These fairs are are also 6ii4l' galldriigs, affording tho only opportunities of bringing togethertho-wealth and intelligence of the State. Their recurrence is anxiously arai'd by, thoutands of the old and y1ut6 . Much moro could be said in favor of. the fair, but we will conclude our argument by saying that these asso eiations are the only organiz:ations in the State in the hands of the whites. This circumstance, of itself, should commend them to us. We believe d h9po ihe fair will be a success. e. also .wlah that our farmers wold take tho matter in hand, and our merchants too, for their prosperity depends on the sue. oess of the farming interest. The sum asked.of eocb. individugal. is only ten dalrs,'and this 'is a small price for an undoubted bene6it. How many shares will be taken in Fairfield ? W~e have a word allpo bossy to the Oranges. Let each Grange in the County subscribe to this Association. They are direotly intorested, If they cannot afford-aid to lan enterprise of this sort, they may as well dissolve. Let the association be put on a firm, footing, and then our fairs will comn. pete with those of every other State. Rushing Up the Coln. A Washington dis'patch says; Dr. Linderman, the 'director of the mint, l'eft to-night for New York to inspect the assy offioe at. -that point, and make arrangement to Increase its facilities. Since the beginning of the panic the imports of gold have been very heavy, and the precious metal has poured into the assayoffice so fast that it has besome elogged with work. There are now in the T'rosaury thirty fie miillionsin double eagles. The coinage in the n'ifnt at Ban Francisco has been also exceptionally heavy for some time past. Over two millions in double eagles were coited last month, and the,entirdt,ooinage .for the quartet was about sevent and a half millions. One hund red and th irty. seven thousand trade dollars were turned out of this mins during last month, The Ijilg of Coluatbia--ths (#uca10t1 Settled.

Grant with his salary and perquisitem of 127,000 a year. Yet none of them asks for an increase of pay, and none of tbw is suspected of making money Improperly. They take office for th e honor and not for the emolument, and the more general that sort of office seeking again becomes the better it will be for the country. Congressman IleCrary of Iowa is trying to earn $625 a month by mak ing eampaign speechos. liis last asse'tion is that the Republican par. ty is not responsible for the salary grab, beokUso it has condemned th actiot of those who voted fcr it The party has failed to condemn the man who personally pressed the en actment of the grab, as Congrossman Willard asserts, and who benofited by it to over five times tho extent that any meniber of Congress did. Gen. Grant is the representative bead of the organization known as the ltepub licah party, and for his official aot the party is responsible. A few days since J. W.Kennel of Pembroke, N. Y., took his mare from the barn, leaving a two months colt behind. On his ieturn, some two hours after, he found the colt on the roof of the barn. Being unable to follow the mare, it had sought some meanus of esonpe. In the first place it had gone up a flight of stairs-fifteen steps-then over the hay mow, and out of a window in the gable end of the harn, on to a half roof, From this elevation it worked its way to the roof of the main barn, whth i very steep ; then it returned to the half-roof, whence, on the return of the mother, it jumped to the ground, a diatance of fourteen feet, a feni which it accomIpliblied without being the least in'jored. A singular attempt was made re cently, near Pittsburg, to rob the en. gineer of a freight tinin. Four men stationed themselves on one of the bridges, and as the train moved slowly under dropped down upon it, and running over the cars, made an attack upon the engincer. A struggle ensued, during which the engineer rolled off the train, and a cry utter ed by him fortunatoly was heard by tha brakeman, who promptly applied his braiko. The engineer made a stout rcistanco, and the thieves, find. ing the work harder than they ex. pected, took to flight. The employce of the road had been paid off the pro vious day, which fact is supposod to have suggested the bold at tempt.
