our Candidatc.

We place at our mast head, to-day, the
Electoral Ticket for Ohio, and the Candi-
dates on the State Ticket.
The fact that all the State Candidates
have already occupied one term Of Office,
and the further fact that they were all nom,
mated by acclamation, is abundant evidence
Of their popularity and efficiency.
R. P. RANNNEY, the Candidate for Su.
preme Judge, has filled that position with
distinguished ability for about five years.
He is well and personally known to most Of
our citizens. He is man of clear, logical
mind, profound legal attainments and un-
questioned integrity.
WAYNE GRrswoLD, is at the present time
Member Of the Board of Public Works
His superior ability and experience eminent
ly fit him for that position.
H. H. BARNEY, present Commissioner Of
Common Schools and candidate for re-elec.
ton, is fine scholar, and an ardent and ef
ficient laborer in the educational field
Years OF careful study and observation as ,
practical teacher, have thoroughly prepared
him for the arduous duties Of Superintend
ent of our Common Schools. No better
nomination could have been made.

The Know Nothing Council OF
FraMksin--With of "a
embcTS.


We have received the following certif-
cate, for publication. Thirty-four members
of the Know Nothing Council of Franklin,
have come out from the detestable order,
and in a bold and manly style declared them
selves forever free fIon its oaths and obliga-
tions. We are glad to see this. 1t was
with them as with many other citizens of
Portage county. They were deceived as to
the objects and aims Of the order, and they
take this method of purging themselves OF
the odium which attaches to every adhering
member. They are now free men. The CO.
yer of darkness is not necessary to shroud
their movements. The Know Nothing die
tators of Portage county may call them
"perjured;" but it is such perjury as unshack-
les mans mind and movements, and gives
him the right and privilege of calling him
self true American citizen. The persons
whose names are signed to the certificate are
we'll known as men of standing and infu-
ence in franklin. This movement is but
the "beginning of the end" Know Moth
ingism is growing more and more odious ev-
cry day, and very soon will be among the
repudiated errors of the past.

difficulty In meeting the loans subsequently

ANOTHER BRIDGE ACROSS TIE OHIO.
Their exists no longer any doubt
concerning the erection of a bridge
across the Ohio between the cities Of
Cincinnati and Covington. All the
stock has been paid in, and prepare
tons are being made for the early
commencement of this important struc-
ture. An agent of the company is
now in this city authorized to purchase
thirty thousand barrels of cement,
that immense amount being necessary
for the construction ofthe bridge piers.
This is quite the largest order that has
ever been received in Louisville at one
time, and to fill it will tax the capacity
even of Frank McIIarry's mommoth
works. The bridge win not, 50 it is
said, interfere in the least with river
navigation, as the arches are to be
fully sixty feet above high water mark,
thus allowing the tallest chimneys of
boats to pass beneath it without the
slightest trouble LomsriUe Coar. 80.

FROM WASHINGTON.
WAsHrNnTnN- Sent- &.

HAIALo4yN, GNHN ~
The Secretary of War, writing to
Gen. Smith, under date Of September,
Sd, says: "Your dispatch Of the ed
August, and enclosures, sufficiently
exhibit the inadequacy Of the force
under your command to perform the
duties which have been devolYed upon
you, in the present unhappy condition
Of Kansas, by the orders and instruc-
tions heretofore communicated. To.
meet this exigency, the President has
directed the Governor of the Territory
TO complete the enlistment and organi-
cation of militia, as you will find fully
set forth in the enclosed copy of a.
letter addressed to him by the Secre-
tary Of State; and the President has
directed me to say to you, that you
are authorized, from time to time, to
make acquisitions upon the Governor
for such militia force as you may re-
quire, to enable you promptly and sue
cessfully to execute your orders, and
suppress the instruction against the
government of the Territory ofKansas;
and, under the circumstances hereto
fore set forth in your instructions, to
give the requisite aid to offocTs Of the
enforcement who may beobstruct-
ed m the due execution of the law.
snld you not be able to derive
fhe militia Of Kansas an adequate
force for these purposes, such addition
al number Of militia as may be neces-
sary, viii be drawn from the States Of
Illinois and Kentucky, as shown in the
requisition, a copy of which is en-
closed. The views contained in your
Instructions to the officers commanding
the troops, under the date of August
18th, arc fullyapproEed, and accorded
SO entirely with the purposes of the
Executive, as to leave but little to add.
In relation to the course which it is
desiredy you should pursue, Imposition
Of the insurgents, as shown by your
letter and its Enclosures, is that of open
rebellion against the laws and the con-
stitutional authorities, with such mani
festation Of purpose as to spread de-
vastation over the land, and as no
longer iustifes any further hesitation
or Indulgence. To you as well as every
soldier, whose habitual feeling is to
protect the citizens of his own country.
and only to use his arms against the
public enemy, it cannot be otherwise
than deeply painful to be brought into
conflict with any portion Of his fellow
coantrymen. But patriotism and
humanity alike require that rebellion
should be promptly crushed, and the
peace and security of the good people
of the Territory restored"

INCREASED COMPENSATION OF CONGRESS-
KrN

MEN.
The Senate passed a bill on Wednes-
day, fixing the compensation Of mem
bers of Congress at $4,000 per annum
in addition to the mileage allowed by
existing laws. This is an increase over
the present per diem compensation Of.
something more than so per cent. No.
one who knows the cost Of living in.
Washington viii deny that the present
pay of members is inadequate. Its
increase, therefore, is a simple act Of.
Justice; and we were gratifed to see
thebil pass without any party division.
The necessity for snch a measure.
has been felt for years, bat members
have heretofore been restrained by the
indisposition to act in a matter which
seemed to involve their own interests.
It viii be remembered that it has been
found necessary to increase the COM
pensation of most Of the officers and
employees Of the government, includ-
ing the members Of the cabinet and of
the supreme court.
The same reason existed for a like
course in regard to members Of Con-
gress; and, if we we're not personally
interested, we would suggest that ex-
actly the same reason exists for saving
the public printers from the loss they
have sustained by the increased wages
they have to pay to their two or three
hundred agents in executing the pub
lie work, thereby operating as a heavy
reduction on the prices fixed by law in
1852. At least, while Justice is being
done to all others, the public printers
might be allowedto receive the amount
decided by the court to be due them
under the law of 1854.
But the fact that Congress refuses
to do justice to tha printers, will not
prevent us from awarding to members
proper commendaalla for the Justice
they are doing to others. We know
that members are lsboring under the
most serious misapprehensions as to
the heavy profits of the printers, and
doubt not they suppose that the 2Ope1
cent. claim, decided to be due to them.
would make them rich. The fact is.
that the printers have been paying
most of the time since the law of 1854
passed, to their employees, a large in
crease on their wages; and they have
done it cheerfIlly, because they are
entitled to it, Washington Unioa.
