' AH voters should understand that in this country there is a division in the application of the Tariff. The difference of application is bo Vreat . . . a : it might be likened unto two differ i ent systems. This is seen in j this: a portion of the tax collected goes in , to the U. . Treasury and is applied to the maintenance of the Govern ment, i The remainder and J the larger part goes directly into the pockets of manufucturers." This sum is taken, from the pockets of the laboring classes in the increased price : of necessaries, and is given by a way of bountyto a small class that they may grow rich and flourish. The poorest man has a portion of the fruitsjof his toil transferred from - his pockets into the pockets of an other. All have to tiavthetax. No man is exempt. , There can be no proxies or substitutes here. All must serve. Like death the Tariff exacts this sum from all. j . V This system, unfair, unequal, un just as it is, wag first set up on" the plea of building up horaeandustries. It was urged and is still urged by the monopolists, , that without this tax.levied upon all that the few en gaging- m manufacturing could not and in the end actually curses the country? - - OHIO. " ' Ohio votes on the 14th of October for minor State officers and for mem bers of the House of Representatives. It , is very important elect ion and both parties are putting forth extra ordinary efforts to capture the State. The fight 'thickens, and" from - now until the election will increase: m fierceness. .The RepaWicanB wilh do- all that is- possible to prevent defeat. They carried it in 1880.by,the feensa of raonev, and their main' hope 'now is -soap." j.i mey, can raise a ju-t lion or two of dollars they will freely apply ' it to buying rfp -voters , and thus debauching? the ballotL - '-m :u: : Ohio has been ; a 'Republican .State by from 16,000 to'; 30,000 majprity, out uarneia carnea it py very; nearly 50,000 majority. If the Republicans should fail to carry it the loss : would be utterly disastrous to their - candi date,' for he would have no. showing whatever in the November election. If they should carry ,it by only a few thousands the - effect- would ; neoes sarily be yery depressing , to. thern for Ohio has been one of thesteady, staunch States' in , tfee '.'.past. i-a . It has never gone Democratic but once in' some twenty years.? It never went Democratic in a Presidential year. The Republicans cannot afford to let it go pemocratic this' year. It would simply ruin them. - ' ; But, on the other hand,' if the De mocrats should fail in October it will be no loser, as in all the calculations they make they , do not claim ; the electoral vote of this State. 'But still they are making a very earnest fight for yictory, and the tidings that come j from that. State are full of cheer. The German vote, in the i . - , . I main, it is believed, will be cast for. Cleveland, and if it can be secured for the Democrats in the State elec tion all will be well: :i , ., f ' i There lies the difficulty. The Germans are -for tho most Republi cans, and they may divide on the State ticket and thus give the vote to the Republicans. But if they are really anxious to defeat Blaine, and they will consider the importance of carrying the State in Ohio, they would vote with the Democrats. ; Mr. Hamilton Fish sayshe wilt vote for Blaine.

Itansom spoke' at Kenansville on Tuesday and at night at Warsaw. A gentleman who heard his nigbt speech tells lis that it was very conservative and sensible. People now can see after reading the last 15 Mulligan letters why Jim .Blaine talked of suicide in 187G, and why he got on his knees to , Mr. James Mullisran in - Washington. The New York ZTerald . says 'that Blaine tried to make it appear that the first fifteen read (he omitted four in his reading) comprised all, "every solitary scrap and scrimption, as the children i says," was his expression. The man (Mulligan) did his worst," he said, "the - very worst .he could,, out of the most intimate business correspondence of, my life." "' But Blaine was dodging at the time as events show. The Herald says: ;' "After eight years Mr. Mulligan. now gives to tne puouc ntteen more lei it- di:. :.

We print them in full. There is scarcely one which does not contain damn ing proof of Mr. Blaine's corruption and pf the debasement to which the Republican party, has sunk itself by nominating him for President. We direct special attention to the letter of April 16, 1876, requesting Mr. Fisher to sign and return a document composed for him by Mr. Blaine, making false statements concerning Mr. Blaine's railrnirl inhnpp and AaairmoA m.mm tion to help his Presidential aspirations at Cincinnati." : ... - . . : : ; ; Not to mention the. candidates for the Legislature and" for'; the- Lower House of the Congress, there areior many strong speakers taking a part in the campaign, and some of them possibly compete with foreit-n man.

The result of J the sys- cadi4atS and Senator lYance, and tern is to force men all men at that CJ' Armfield, and Senator : inaojni to pay more for goods than they 4UU uaSe r owie ana uapt.; yoke, "would pay if the tax did not exist There are also two classes among the voter and they are divided in opinion. The one class is strongly in favor of keeping up the high tax indefinitely. Like Blaine and Logan they believe that high taxes are a positive blessing and that the more jon pile vp the taxes the greater guarantee there is of prosperity. Of course this is a 'monstrous doctrine, and no man of fairness and sense ought to be caught defending it. In all lands taxes are regarded as a great ! and necessary evilj Tariff taxes are of this class. The present High 1 Tariff averages 43 per cent, tax on thousands' of articles. Anere is anotner class, and Cleva land and Hendricks are of that class, who believe and insist that the taxes are far too high and should be re duced at least 16 Dr 18 per cent. The reasons are various, but chiefly that there is a surplus now of four hun dred millions of dollars; that the ex cessive bountv offered f . 'HBWMSWD and Gov.

I That perfect model of the cheapest ot reputation-, Pompey Sneed, was the sub-i ject of general remark yesterday. Bis brother, of Easy Hill. Brunswick county, was among the callers at the Hotel de Mur ray yesterday, but being generally indis posed, to say nothing of the fatigue of travel, it was understood that the meeting was postponed to a more convenient sea son. The modern "ewamp angel say she is very sore from wounds ' received in a little scrimmage at Ooldsbbro a few days ago, but he will be all right in a short time, he thinks. He repudiates the bulk of the ' achievements laid to his charge, and says at the time a certain officer fired into him with such earnestness one day last week, between the old Union depot and the Athletic Club grounds, he was iii Ooldsboro. f "'' We learn that about three , hundred 'col ored people crowded the vicinity of the def pot when he came in Tuesday night. " 1 11 Yesterday the subject of so much nn necessary consideration was ' arraigned be fore Justice Millis and committed, in de fault of a justified bond in the sum of $500, for bis appearance before him this after noon, at 4 o'clock, to answer to the charge of assault with intent to kill one Htary Moore, colored, on the night of Sunday, the 20th of J uly last, near the corner df Second and lirunswick streets, strikinr him with a pistol.
