| A P.CTURE.-A federal letter writer tc
the New York Herald, from Dayton in ,hi.
State, gives the folowing,.(n speakin! o
Presidential mattets) touching Tom Corwin
the noisy, ranling sump-spaaker of OHIO
whom tho feds sent to the U, S. Senate a
year or two ago. This picture is pretty we'll
drawn. though it might be filled up some
what in the back ground. Corwin is un-
doubtedly a real, "hurrah," slash-aud-dasll
speaker with B'hoys, but as to his states
manship, as this writer truly remarks, he is
moi distinguished for any claim" He's
better at wattcrmelons, than occupying n
seat in such body as the U. S. Senate, for
which ho is about as fit as the tactotum ola
country debating society:
"Mr. Corwin is man of some ability, an
excellent stump speaker, a good mimic, a
poor lawyer, clever fellow in some res
pec's, and IN adroit inlriguer Whether
these are qualifications for The chief magis-
lrucy leave the public to judge, but, they
arc eminenty the characteristics of the
"stumpers' " candidate.
In this quarter Of the State, tho move
ment has been conducted under the auspices
OF Mr. r. c. Schenck, our member of Con-
gress, with the advice and sanction of Mr
Corwn. He studied law with Mr.. c., and
has since thon been always his alter ego.
freely admit that Mr.. Corwin has consdera-
blc popularity with the young men of Ohio,
but deny that he las any substantial stand
ing with the solid classes. He is indebted
for all that he has to the generosity of the
Wigs of this State, and has never yet gain
ed ono vote from the opposition. lie beat
tue weakest man of The democratic party for
Governor, and was in turn, beaten by the
weakest man for the same office, when the
wings had positive majority of 5000. He
never made speech in Congress dts,in-
guished for any claim to craftsmanship; and
|that by which he is best known, his water
melon speech against General Crary is one,
which no Senator of the United States, not
even the far-famcd 'man in the corncr,"
would be willing TO acknowledge ."-!Steu-
bcnrite Union.

MILITARY APpoISrMENrs.--" We think
(says the ST. Louis UnionD it deci dedly
wrong that The dool of promotion should be
shut against the rank and fiie-that military
commissions should. underour institutions, be
a monopoly in the hands ola few. The West
Point Cadets, on graduating, receive com
missions as matter of course, aud during
the present war they have shown tina, they
are worthy Of the honors bestowed upon
them. But they should not have monopoly
Of the military offices. They cannot object
10 the regular promotion OF private who
has manifested all of the requisite qualifca
lions, nor should they desire The absence in
our army ofsuch strong incentives to daring
deeds and soldier, like bearing on The part of
those whom they command"
