CINcINNATI REPuBLIcAN.

Our respected friend Col. Charles s. Todd, took
leave of the readers Of the Republican yesterday in the
following brief note:
"The undersigned retres from the Editorial DEPART
ment of the CINCINNATI REPUBLICAN He will never
to feel grateful of the confidence extend
ed to him in his Editorial abors; confidence which
impaired whatever Of efficacy they displayed during
the late signal contest His temporary absence from
the Queen City" will not abate any Of the regard
which he cherishes for the continuance of her prospe
", whether statistical, commercial, manufacturing
moral or literary
The undersigned takes leave of his Editorial bre-
thren with the best wishes for their personal welfare
and for their success in the of the dignity
OF Their profession; and he bids kind adieu TO the
patrons OF the REPUBLICAN, with the consciousness
that II ne has not accomplished by his Editorial efforts
all that he desired towards the elevation of the charac
ter oil the press he has been guided by an anxious So
hcltude to see this great moral lever welded solely
WIN reference to Just public taste and the high inter
ests of the nation. C.. S. TODD
Colonel Todd's editorial brethren, cannot but re-
cprocate the wishes for their personal welfare which
ne mas expressed above. For ourselves, must say
that mas seldom been lot to welcome to the chair
OF edorshp, gentleman courteous in his ordinary
intercourse, observant Of the proprstes Of editorial
life, or so determined in the purpose whatever might
be the provocaon to contrary course OF not sinking
10 the political journalist the moral citizen and the
hgh-toned man. For these things, all must honor
him and few, who know him, will refuse to JOIN with
Us in the hope that hereafter whether he devote him
sefto the useful and honorable labors of the agricu
turlst on his beautiful farm in Kentucky continue
to labor for the benefit of his country 10 responsible
trust abroad, prosperity and happiness may be his lot
Definite arrangements with regard to the future edi
torial management of the Republican, are to be an
nounced after few weeks. Since Colonel Todd as
sumed the control Of this paper it has rendered good
service to the Wing cause which is the cause Of the
Country and it will doubtless be marked hereafter by
equal ability and earnestness.-C Cincinnati Gazette

MEETING in GEORGETOWN.

At large and respectable meeting of the
citizens of Georgetown, held at the Lancaster
| School Room, on Thursday evening, April s,
HENRY ADDISON was called to the Chair and
EDWARD S. WRIGHT, appointed Secretary
WILLIAM LAIRD, Esq, offered the following
resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
Resolred, That under the affecting dispensation
of Divine Providence, in the death of Gen. WILLIAM
HENRY HARRISON, late President of the u. States
We the citizens of Georgetown share in the full cup
of the nations sorrow, and humbly bow to the over
ruling wisdom of an Almighty Power. Wehave lost
the high hope of our hearts. We feel that the hand
of Death has stricken from dearest friend and
we deeply mourn. With the whole nation we lament
that the early and ndefatigabe defender of it's ber-
ties-the soldier who faithfully and successfully
fought its battes-the statesman who in purity guild
ed its councils, and the honest man who through a
long life, maintained single eye to the good of
his fellow creatures has passed away from the midst
of u.s. Deeply sympathizing, as we do, with the fam
y and connexions of the late President, we, they,
have abiding consolation that he departed ripe for
home Of bliss, and with nations love and honors
heaped upon him. ....
