(°) John W. Bookwwalter, tho Democratic cantl- date Cor Governor of Ohio, has recently made. an oxhibltion of iitmself fn amanner which even ward politicians seldom resort to. Mr. Bookwalter, under the direction of his managers, hoped to steal a mureh upon the Repubiicans by visiting all the mining towns in the Mocking and Sunday Creek Valleys, and, 1f possible, seeuro the influonce of tho Jending ininiers In his behalf and the sympa- thy of the entire body of miners In these valleys. which, If pocketed, would secure to him not only n large vote at those points, bub would also influence the votes of the miners: in the Mahoning Valley. With-this end fn vlew, the Democratic enndidate for the high- est ofice In the giftof the peopla of Ohio, started on its “still hunt.” Renehing Corning, on the ino of the Ohio Central,tho candldate for Gubernatorial hone ors was met at the train by one of the saloon- keepers of the town, and was escorted to the srogeery, Where he hold quite a brilllaut(?y reception with the * boys” and dlspensed the ardent ns the wants, or rather Une thirst, of tho loungers thereabont might demand. After remuintug at the frst salvon somy time he de- parted for ‘nnother place of Ike character, leaving bentd a five-doilar note to pay for drinks to by glyen other miners as they might come In. The sane program was carrled outat the other saloons of the town, when Mr. Bookwalter departed for Shawnee, on- other mining town, whare TUE SAME SHAM NOCEEDING was Indulged in, ouly with Tess secrecy, It isstated that many of the mingrs became drunk and bolsterous, sud that even the yearling Democratic candidate, Mr Bookwalter, beenme enthuslastically elated — over the apparent success of his “sti hunt.” He had evidently found the product of the “still without much hunting, and uso the samo most Iberaliy, befloving as he dld that the free distribution of it would enhance his election as the Chtot Executive of the State. From Shawnee Mr, Hovkwalter moved forward to Straltsville, Nelsonyille, and smaller towns, where he vistted the saloons firet, then the mines and furnaces, Fepresen tng at all these places that he was the warniest friend to the labor ing mans that Coy, Foster ealled out tho troops last fall shuply, because he was Inter- estad in the eoal-mines at Corning, which Is false, and was known by the Demoeratic candidate to be false. Gov, Foster had no interest whatever In tho mines, and even if he had he vould not have ordered out the inilitin unless the Sherlif had applied to hin for assistance. A. snloonkeeper at Corning was engaged by Mr. Boukwulter to de work among the nilners hi these valleys, and he lias already been henrd from ut various pojuts, It was not nutieipatod by the Democratic managers that the Republicans would “DROP ONTO THE RACKET,” but in this they were sadly decelved. Mr. Luokwalter was shadewed from the time he left this elty on his secret misslon, aud all the facts were well known to tho Sluts Ex- evutive Committes as they transpired, and now that the whole matter has leaked out, and thelr candidute fully shown up, every effort is being made by the Democracy to overcome the evil which it Is only too ap- parent has beon done thelr cause. it can be authoritatively stated that the miners who drank at Mr. Bookwalter's ex pense also swallowed what respect they had for.hin as a eandidate for Governor, for while they fect free to do about as they please there tire none so Ignorant ns not te recognize the tet that the Chief Executive of the State shold be a manof not onty dignity: and character, but shold hold hlmsele aloof from practives of xo degrading a character us marked the conduct of Mr. Bookwalter, Others feul themselves insnited by the im plied supposition of Mr, Bookwalter and his Agents that thelr yotes have been secured or enn be fora drink of grog.

C,, Sept, 1,—Tho ten of rerdjustment begun under Mahone in Vir- rinin, and the Issue in the trlangular tight now golng on in that State has reached this State, and is moviig on the Georgians, ina new and startling form, and one whiileh, from tho present otitlook, will assume large pro- portions, and, like readjustment in Virginia, enter largely {nto the politics of the State. The great failure of tho cotton crop In South Carolina’ and Georgin has. left a great number of the planters in debt for heavy purchases of _ fortlllzors, Upon the discovery of this state of atfairs, a movement was set on foot in An- derson County looking to the readjustment of the fartillzing debts. ‘The Iden of getting rid of tha ‘artears“hnd beginning the next year freolids proved very popular, especially: among the small planters, and the movement thus innugurated hi a quiet way has begun to assume proportions of a magnitude aston- Ishing the originators of the dea, In Green- yille County a well-deflned moveinant has bextn among the farmers to hold a meeting, ay the call stys, for the discussion of ways and means to overcome existing difleulties eased by heavy purchases of | fertlttzers nnd light ylelts of cotton, Some of the farmers have an idea that the meeting should propose to fertilizer agents to renit one- third of tholr claimson the guarantee of the debtor that he will patronize tho agent so re- mittlng exclusively for from three to fiva years. Others farmers object to the meeting, and think It would (be better for everybody for the farmers to pay every cent thoy owe, 1t Is generally conceded that tho furtilizor manufacturers will not accede to any such demands. The local papers have taken the matter up. The Atlanta Con-. stitution says this ts the Mahone pian over again, and asks: “Who knows put the action of these farmers may not serve a4 the basis of some future. campatgn wherein a South Carolina Mahone may have to appenl to the Republicans for ald and comfort In carrying out the plan of read- {ustment and repudiation, in crushing the Sourbons, who believe in an honest pay: ment of debts, both publle and private? Some of tho resolutions propose to enlist the enthustasmof the culured people, and this will not be ditticult to do, as thoy constitute agreat voting power, 1t is not impossible that, should the movement be made a party Issue, they could do as tas been cone in Vir- ginin: give a majority representation In the Legislature. ‘Lhe opponents of this read- Justinent idea foreshadow the result, and, to use the language of one of them: * ‘The prghaulliy is that tha adoption of this reso- tution will run the credit of the farmers who countenance them, But there ia pussibil. ity that some auch demagog as Mahone will aeize upon the idea, rally the debtors, bith white and black, itr all sections of the S.ate, cover It up with some talk about Bourbon- ism, 2 free ballot, aida fair count, and so formulate an issue which the public may tne dlopsy ag one of the methods of breaking up the Soilil South?
