Oxford Republican Convention.

Tbi, was a glorious gathering OF thc hard
hands and honc,, heart. OF good =" OLD OK
ford. Every town, and nearly every plan.
uti,n ia the County and Senatorial district
was represented.
Men, who in former year. have acted in
different political organizations, but who
now mml aIle upon the great issue. Of the
DAY. came together upon this occasion anil
pledged 20 each other a cordial cooperation
in an earnest attempt "a redeem the people
of the the County from the misrul, Of the
Gun House Gllphins, who have Tor years
managed IT,, financial adlirs, AMI nearly
ruined It's hr,t interest.
The greatest harmony characterized the
proceeding, throughout Prior tothc meet
Ing thor, hal been no secret caucu. manag-
ing, no tray,llin. round nights to drum NJ
delegate, to 90 Tor particular candidates.
The people elected their delegates, scnt them
to the convention rrP'3coi, and they ear
riel no instruction, in their pocket, but
went Their, 10 select the L-u msr, and by 80
doing look out FOR the lrs, interests Of the
people
Is matter Of course several names were
pr,sentod as candidates, but after the sclec-
,ions were made, there was but one ro'oc
and one mind, to support the whole ticket,
aud cleo; them at the polls.
The two candidates for the Senate were
nominated by handsome majoritics on the
first ballot. while after am informal ballot
for County Commissioner, all the candidates
selected for County officers were nominated
by aoolamaiioH, not single dissenting voice
was found in the whole meeting.
There was not only harmony but enthu-
siasm in the Convention. Our friends from
every section were in high spirits. From
almost every town we heard the most cheer
ing accounts, and after comparing notes and
looking the ground all over, we have no
doubt that if our friends DO thar duty, we
shall come out Of the eight victorious.
The members went home with an increas-
ed determination to fghi IL out.
The County must DO redeemed, aaa the
rcoplo are determined ID d7Nbc.

The Rioters out of Breath

We have carefully looked over the lI,aIiy
argus Of August 9Th, and can fnlno 'am'a-
ia,iOas about the murder Of John Robbins,
the first practical exponent Of the Well.
Platform no howl OF distress over his hon
orcd grave aud We are forced to the con-
clusion that the mobiles have got cut 81
br,aih. Il, THE as it may, their wind has
held ont much longer than VIC supposed pos
siblc, FOR u party constitutiOnally affected
with disease requiring spiritual si'7m'aHt',
to be administered by the hands Of political
quacks and empires. The only relic to per.
pctuatc the awful tragedy in the Argus is
the announcement Of the important fact that
the pompous Coroner Of the bogus Inquest
had returned the verdict ofthcse patriots to
Court. This is probably the last act Of this
twcnty-onc days humbug; and thcir learned
essay on manslaushirr and bullet holes will
be filed in the archives Of the Court, a last
ing monument to pcrPetuaic in the staying
ofJohn Robins, th$untimely dcccasc Of dem
ocratic mobocracy in 1855. "Rcqlaoai "a
