' ' That Ohio has gone" wrong politi cally is now an assured "fact. . - i The result there last Tuesday is to be regretted ' because it is an express sion of hostility by the people of that State to Democracy. " , . , 5 It will be asserted, indeed has ' al ready been asserted, by Bepublicans, that Tuesday vote, in that State, is the beginning of the reaction which is to sweep the Democrats out of pow er at the next ! presidential election, and." - - - : Starting from the foot of the lad der, we will have to fight over again the battles of the last twenty years, ; Because one of the results is the return of John Sherman to the Sen ate, ' ' ' i 5Vhich will make the Ohio issue, 1 national issue. " ' , ' . The bloody shirt will be unfolded once more in the Congressional halls. and, - , Hateful i and dangerous sectional animosities ; and differences, which ought to have been considered sets tied when the South surrendered at Appomattox, will be brought to the forefront, and i, ' Whiclrtnust tend to check the" pro cress and political welfare of the whole country. The New .York World thus com ments on the situation in Ohio: Whatever the truth may be, the Republican politicians will believe that their old policy of sectional ve nom is still available and can be made to win. The party will be encouraged to re vive the bloody-shirt issue in future campaigns. - . V . , The Senate will be emboldened to attack the loyalty of the Administra tion because of the presence pf ex Confederates in its counsels. : ' A conflict "pf races will again "be couraged by Republican demagogues in the South. ' Two years ago Hoadly carried the State by nearly 13,000 plurality. ? The Republicans ' exhorted their party not to allow the State to be turned over to the Democracy on the year preceding the Presidential elocu tion. ' , , - : i ' . . Gov. Hoadly was unable to outer the canvass on account of ill-health. The Republicans had all the Na tional and State patronage . in their hands. ; Charles Foster, an able and unscru pulous politician; was Governor.' . : A large election fund was in the hands of the republican committee. The prohibition vote was light. . Everything favored the republican candidate. This year was the unimportant year following, instead of the impor tant year preceding, the Presidential election. t Governor Hoadley was active in he canvas. " , ' -', ': The democrats, instead of the re publicans, held the State patronage, and ifthe national patronage was not in their hands it could not be used as partisan capital against them as ef f ecti vely as it was two years ago. . The prohibition vote was heavy. . The democratic candidate was known to have the special sympathy and best wishes of the President, who had ; expressed unshaken confidence in Gov. Hoadley after the unfortunate blunder of the Noyes appointment. U Whatever rumors . may I be started about New York, no one ever pre tended that the national administra tion was not earnestly and sincerely desirous of Gov. Hoadley 's election in Ohio- . . The republicans had absolutely no issue cn which to go Derore the peo pie except John Sherman's 'bloody shirt," which ought alone to have de feated them. - ' " ; TositlTe Ceire for I?IIe's.

Recently a v;ery rare and exceed ingly difficult and dangerous opera tion was performed by some Wiwh iogton doctors oa young. George R; Fowler, a son of Acting Assistant PostmasterGeneral Fowier.' In giv ing an account of it the Post says: The , vounc: gentleman was affected with a troublesome cough during the summer, and lately has been confined to his bed.by a serious and oppressive illness,'' whichwa3 variously believed to be inflammation - or congestion-' or the lungs or consumption. Gradually the chest became distended, and. the lung space filled up, so that the young man was on tne point or sunocation, when Dr. Hammett, applying his ear to the patient's chest; thought he de tected something like fa breathing through water. Dr. Bliss was called into consultation,' and it was agreed that there was an' accumulation or water in the chest, .This was not a physical certainty, because the water could not be felt from the outside, hut it was the diagnosis of the two doc tors in joint consultation. ' Hydro Thbrai they call the disease, mean ing 4 water in the chest.?' , For this a difficult and dangerous surgical oper ation was necessary; without which the patient could not live. ,The oper ation was -performed.-: with a kind of a pump kDOwn as Delfor's aspirator. A large needle was inserted in one pf the rib spaces under the left arm, and an entrance was made clear into the left lung. A' small tube "attached to the ; aspirator was. put into - this opening and the pump was set to work. In. a short ; time fifty-two ounces, or about three and a half pintsof water were drawn Off, and the natient experienced immediate relief, and could breathe freely. The accumulated' water, had crushed the heart from its usual seat in the left over to the patient's right side, and had pushed the left lung up under his chin. The operation, which is the re sult of recent discovery, was not known to surgical science " a : dozen years ago,' and was a decided success. But the chief merit claimed by the physicians is the accuracy of thes di agnosis, which was the outcome of . a great deal of weighing and balancing ot the , doubtful symptoms, imme diately. 'after. the: operation:: the surs geons were able to pronounce the pa tient out of danger. .Two days be fore he was thought to be beyond res covery. The operation is regarded as one or the most successful -i in stances of special surgical treatment m dimcult cases ever known in Washington. . v . , ; , c -Such operations should be widely known among the medical fraternity, and doubtless their special journals will record this one for the benefit of all. ; . - ' WOO!

Sudden Close of the Career of a Celebrated American Humorist. San Francisco, Oct. 14. H. W. Shaw, better known as Josh Billings, the humorist, died today at the Dei- monte House, Montery, of appo- plexy. ' - ;" - Josh Billings was born in JNow Hampshire about 65 years ago. Up to the age of 40 he was engaged in various pursuits; none of which proved remunerative. He had writ ten much for the press, but until 1860, when he began putting his let ters together in a style peculiarly his own, his reputation did not extend beyond the limits of the county in which lie lived, lie had been farmer, school teacher: land agent, lumber merchant and - store keeper, but at the time his name became knownTie was anauctioneerat Poughkeepsie. At the close of the war, after having des livered a few lectures n country towns, he spoke in Philadelphia at the invitation of the Press Club, and made what he called the first success of his life. In 1866 he contracted with a New York Weekly paper to furnish an eighth of a column a week, for which he received 1 10,000 a year. He was not, as many would suppose, an illiterate man. On the contrary he was weU educated, and , possessed a most excellent taste. 'As a philos ophical humorist and humorous phi losopher," said the Revue des ; Deux Mondes, "Josh Billinga has" been equaled only by Sidney Smith." His gains from : literary labor lectures, books and weekly sketches, . aggre gated at least $600,000. . - . ' Mr. Shaw leaves a widow, two daughters and several grandchildren. One of his daughters married a mil lionaire of South America, the other a wealthy broker of this city. It Astonished the Pnhlic to hear of the resignation of Dr. Pierce as a Con gressman to devote himself solely to nls labors as a physician. It was because his trne constituents were the sick and afflicted everywhere. They will find Dr. .Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery" , a beneficent use of his scientific knowledge In their behalf.
