would have occasioned no great regret.
Ii we were now compelled to pursue
the slow, plodding plan, OF addressing
every individual, in a language appro-
pirate, and calculated for the meridian

nerals, our members of Congress, nav
even our President Happily this is
not the case. The Legislatures of DIFF

President he writes an answer to one,
which he transcribes, and sends COPY
to the others. a member of Congress-
writes to his friend: he gets the letter
printed, and crowds the mail with cir
culars. He addresses the Judge, the !
lawyer, the Parson, the farmer, the mer-
chant, and the shoeblack, in precisely
the same language. A General, Major |
General Preston for instance, issues or

to his Brigadiers, with instructions to
have 1t printed in the newspapers, for
the direction Of inferior officers. Mr.. |

THE CAUSE OF THE REPUBLIC.

The election topics are now likely to come
upon the fdfiS-there is much more intrigue
afioat than we had believed, and in quarters
to which we could not have suspected, and
means used which we couldnot have suppos-
ed. But as this paper has been accustomed
to determine Coolly; and with single eve to
the national honour, the national h0Hcy and
the best interests ofScciety; without listen
ing to the querulous snecrs of the irrascible
or the pctulance OF personal discontent-we
shall take this opportunity of declaring that
upon strict cXamination--upo fair view
of the whole ground, with the best lights of
which the subject is susceptible, we are of
opinion that the happy policy which has pre-
served the peace and prosperity Of the u.
States, and the respect of the universe, will
be best ensured and promoted by the sup
port of the candidate recommended TO be put
in nomination by the meeting of the members
of both houses OF Congress-

publican citizens, held at Martling's OH
Friday evening, 29th April, 1908. r.
.A6raham Bio0dgood, Esq. Chairman
ResolOed, That the result of the late cleo
ton in this city, In favor of the republican
candidates, is evincive ofthe unbending vir-
tue, the infexible patriotism, and the undo
Waiting and invincible spirit, of republican
ism, which animate and ought forever to per-
wade the American people, and that it is fair
lytobe considered as the triumph of principle

es of our fellow-citizens, immediately de-
pendent on commerce, are entitled to the
thanks OF their country, for their generous
and public spirited support OF the administra-
ton, by whose pacific, yet energetic policy
our property is saved from foreign deprcda-
ton, and the lives of our countrymcn are res
cued from immolaton i'll foreign servitude
and British ships
Resotued, That we will support the present
administration, and rally round the standard
OF our Country, whenever occasion shall pre-
sent and require our exertions.
