The ugliest feature of the Democratic slip-up fa Ohio ts the loss of Judge Thar- . man aud the seat Judge Thnrman occu pies hi the Senate of Ute, United States. The reflection that be has brought it up on himself carries no consolation with it. The Democratic majority cannot stand many changes in the upper boqfe of Cou givus, ana the Democratic party can ill afford to spare Judge Tburman, who,, despite Ids Irresolution, and certain fsults which seeaa to be inevitable to an over weening ambition to be President, lias made a record as useful as it is brilliant. He will be missed from the debates. None Of his oolleagues has the training, Mned to tlie keen, scintillating, lawycr- Hke ability, to flll the place which bo flu tto well, ami which flts him >o well. Judgo Tburmau is not a statesman lu the sense that sagacity, bread!b of view and fixed pn .-puses a A statesmanship. He is, preeminently, a lawyer; a sharp, industrious, pugnacious lawyer. He is fond of intellectual scrimmaging, and shines in thai species of warfare. It U related that on a certain occasion, soon alter the elevation ot Mr. Blaine, aud when that ilougbty warrior waa seeking a chance to make bis debut to advantage, his eye 101 l upon the Senator from Ohio as be entered the Senate chamber. Tbor* man obviously bad been dining. Blaioe thought be saw Us opportunity snd leap ad into the arena; ho shied his castor in the ring; be flaunted his bloody shirt dir ectly at the red bandana; insolent and** cious and port. Thnrman climbed to his loot aud jerked himself together, and closed with bis assailant. "They flt and fit." Intellectually, tbey rolled over on the floor, gouged, pulled hair, and beat one another about tbe head, neck and shoulders. At length it was over, and, S good deal blowu but yet conscious of having licked his man, Tburman said audibly, as be made his way toward the cloak-room, attended by his friends Da vis, of West Virginia, aud Pinckney Whyte of Maryland, "Boys, that dam'd h«riLiMin didn't get away with me. did "No indeed, Senator," said Davis and Whyte In a breath, "yon did splendidly —splendidly." And, jn->t as be disappeared inside tbe cloak rooaa, Thnrman was beard to mus ter above tbe die of tbe bugle note which died in tbe depth ot bis red bandaua • "Never mind! never mind! one of these days I'll catch him token Tm sober, and then, damn him, won't 1 mash him 1" Ho is, indeed, a masher, is this same 'Judge Tbnrman; more than a match for Bhdue at Bhtlncr* own game; aud as lend of a sbiudy as be is equal to tbe sx igenciee ot a «hhi-digging and shlu-dig gery. For a long while alter be came to Washington, he bore the reputation of being a cold, repellent person. He never knew anybody. It was oomplained that be rarely answered the customary salutes ot every day oonrteey. His colleagues had to be Introduced to him twice and thrice over. Bat gradually it cams to light that there was no metfcod or sinister purpose in this; that, beneath a ragged exterior and a brusque manner, lay many genial traits; so th*t those who have had the pleasure and honor of a familiar as sociation with this very marked waa en tertain a personal regard for bi« border ing on affection. Yet, whilst a thorough, ly upright man, and, personally, a thor oughly^crave one. Judge Thurtnan has two fatal defects; be is not a really warm or gratefol man at bottom; and, for all Its stordinees, hie etrong, keen intellect is darkened by temporising qualities,dally ing. and short sigbtedoess. But to* a grudging nature and an irresolute will— a wllT made irresolute by his ambition, and not by any touch ot pusillanimity— hewonld be a great man. Ho ie not a groat man, though n good one; a slueere patriot and an able Senator, and, though an ovor-oautious friend, a frank friend, and alwavs an opan, honorable enemy. Judge Tbarman's career, which is prao ticolly ended-*for except as a probable member of Mr. Tl Idea's possible cabinet, be has no political future—ought » bo a lesson to Ibe young men ol tbe country. Ash member of & House ol Represent* atlves, be made no particular figure. As a lawyer and a Jurist in Ohio be rose to the front rank, and after a brilliant, but unsuccessful race for Governor, having earriod the Legislature, he was elected Senator. Ho entered tbe senate at aa opportune moment. The Republicans hadk theirowu way,aad there was no Democrat possessed of the equipment and the capacity to meet them. At once the new Senator took the pboe which tbe! occasion and Ms taleota uoigaed blm es the leader of the opposition. And right well did 1» fill it. On all the pabßcquee ttone ol that day hie reoord is conspicu ous and luminous; a compendium ot soond Judgement and aoceratc knowl edge, of wlsdoa and tact. In the fiscal iHwnmtoas ssiii i lsllr he showed up very strong. The delusion known as the! "Ohio idea" waa Just edging Its way to tbe front. It did wHaedooe or mUfeod Judge Thnrman. He saw Its fallacy, iwthe restated it. Not until his kins* man, William Allen, waa put forward aa I he repreeentative—a movmeut eon* feeeedlv designed to kill himofl —did be ehow sigusot weakening. Instead of ae» ooptiug the g*ge ot btttle, and dying thou and there or crashing Ms enemies, he temporised, and let things take conrse. This one step waslttal. It be-1 gan a habit of timeserving. wbfch has grown upon him. It emboldened hie en-■ amies, who ever eiuoe have had no fear of Mm.

He lias been environed by multi plied difficulties.

"I am poor in happiness, rich only in unrest. In me there meet a combination ot elements which are at an eternal wnr with one auotber.

Senator Ben Hill, of Georgia, in ies ply to an open letter to him, irom Cons grsssman Crittenden, of New York, publishes a long letter in the Mew York World io which be arraigns tbe Repuk» lican patty lor its course, and del ends tbe Democratic party from mack thai is alleged against It. in speaking of tbe ot the much beard of solid South aud solid North be closes bis letter upon that subject, and in these words: "Now, my trieud, what are yon intelli gent men in tbe North going to do about it? Will von insist ou keeping tbe South solid by demanding their self-dishonor, and then insist upon making tbe North solid because tbe South refuse self deg radation at your command? Well, suppose yen succed? Suppose you succeed, bv your absurd and impose sible stories of unnatural outrages in the South, lu making every man in tbe North hate and distrust every man in the South? Will that break tke solid Soutn? Will that allay sectional sttife? Will that bring peace to the country, prosperity to tke uation, or perpetuity to tbe Union? 1 have always believed tbe secessionists wertf tbe most damaging euemies tbe "South ever had. But they did not ins tend damage. Tbey intended to relieve tbe conscience oi the North on the sub ject ot slavery,and preset ve it on tbeir own responsibility. They were mistaken,but tbey were not traitors. 1 equally believe tbe Republican party Is tbe most dans {eruus euemy the Union ever bad. It iveson sectionalism. It teaches the Nordi to bate the South,and compels tbe South to kate tbe North. It the people ot tbe North are not capable of seeiug tbe end ofsuch a policy, tbey ere incapable and unwortbyof Iree government. The Southern people loet fortune, fame and power by tbe war. Here and there a mau may be tound who, by reason of bis connection with tbe war, bae reached positions for which be, would never oth erwise have been thought ot, but there are very few suck. It would be unnatu ral tor such a people to desire sectional strife. But at tbe North there are thous ands of men who have made fortunes by tbe war, and many have made tame and power. Many are adulated who, but tor the mere hack ol wer, would have never been knowu. Mlilionares are on every band who but for tbe war wonld be pau pers. Is it unnatural for men who have made so mnch by wai not to regret its occurence nor to deprecate another? may not very many others wbo see these ex amples of war fortunes naturally desire or be williug to have like good luck ? Is it strange that leaders who have grown rich and powerful by sectlonallem should desire to make a solid North, agaiust a solid South, and thus perpetuate their fortunes and tbeir power? But it will be strange if an intelligent people cannot penetrate sucb a transparent purpose and prevent its accomplishment. 1 hope and believe tbe present will prove a year of purgation to tbe Democracy ,snd cleans ing the perty of its internal leud aud its running after issues, will recall it to! sound principles and a healthy condition for 1880. If so, we shall be able to pre- ' sent a man for tbe Presidency whose , nomination will be an honor to tbe party wboee election will be an honor to tbe people, and whose wise and patriotic administration will inspire confidence in all good men, will mantain tbe national honor and tbe national credit and ad vance both; from wboee presence rogues will retire abashed, and under wboee in fluence sectionalism will wither torever..
