Tho steamer brought out C 1 miner. Ou an average this would bo 1000 each but, rw the poHSfBuions of the miners would naturally vary in size, it is possible some o'thoiu have little or rothing o show for inexpensive arduous trip to thy frozen north. The allt gl gold democrats of Ohio had less than 00 delegates in their state convention; but the leaders express themselves as "sat isfied" with the shoeing, probably because it indicates that most of the seoeders from democracy have tone to tho republican party where they belong.
