A Trick Ofthe Enemy.

We clip the following from tie Repub-

"The Know Nolhings. in Convention
at DAYTON some weeks since, nominated
Mr.. P. Van Trump for Goxernor OF Ohio
ohoatly after at a large meeting at Msriet-
Ia, it was Recommended that Mr.. Van
Trump be withdrawen. and that the ga
mericaus," i. e. the Know Nothngs. be
advised 10 vote for Payne. Mr.. Van
Trump is withdrawn.
This is news to the American party in
this vicinity. MIR. Van Trump is not with
drawn from tho canvass; nor will lie be,
unless i, is done by the clear, distinct and
unequivaal authority Of those who placed
m in the position which he now occupies
He is mol tie man to Shrink from any Just
responsibility which lie assumes. 1t IS true
that in one or tWo sections OF the State,
portion of the American party, have mani

for the purpose Of beating Mr.. Chase, and
have written to Mr.. Van Trump request
inp him to withdraw his name from tbs

re- On Saturday Of last week, we had
the pleasure ofpassins through and exam
lining the various departments of Esther
Institute, in our sister city. Columbus. We
were delighted with its appearance all
was neat, eommodous. comfortable and
convenient. The regulations Of the Semi
nary, mode Of government, theory OF dis
cipline, recreative exercises, &C., in our O.
pinion, are excellent--exactly adapted to the
full and rapid development Of both mind
and body. We could not but admire and en-
Wy its prosperous and hourishing condi-
ton; its great advantages of sociality and
the competency and proficiency OF its teach
ers. We regret extremely that our schools
lost so valuable ateacher as Miss. WILCOX
and congratulate the people OF Columbus
upon their good fortune in the acquisition
Of one who will do them honor, justice and
credit, both as a teacher and member o.
society. We fear extrAmely, our people
willlearn the truth and feel the force o
the addage. experience is dear teach
er," but hope they will profit by the les
son and learn to value justly that that's
good and keep it for its worth.

The Races.

What field for morali zing!
Old and young p'omiscuon' minglee
Some full Of fun SON, full Of whisky.
Some bent on making love and money.
And some are rowing to and fro.
Content to see the crowd and races--
While here and there are cliques of
sharpers, .
Genteelly dressed end cleauly shaven--
One might think them reverend gentry,
Come to teach us moral goodness;
But their efforts seem confined,
TO euchre--poker~-farro--roolett,
Bets on bob tail, short tail, Nelly Cox,
Allimode and the Boston Bully ID
Money, money, is their idol,
How they get it, Of whom they get 1t
Matters little, so they get it.
Thus the crowd is briefly stated
Lawyers, doctors, merchants, dandIes'
With here and there sturdy farmer,
Mechanics, peddlars, city loafers,
Gamblers, blacklvgs, pocket plckers--
Such mass, of snch material,
Will furnish food for mans reflection.
Composiior More matter!

The editor Of the Cincinnati Times clo'
ses very good article in bis last Satur-
DAYS Daily with the following address'to
the Americans Of Ohio:
Under such circumstances, then, there
is but one course before the American
partv in the State Of Ohio, and ont one
maner to pursue it. Cast your votes in
behalf Of those candidates who are the ex-
ponents Of your principles. No vote thus
cast is lost, and all the logic and argment
of the age can never establish that vote
cast in favor Of one not representative OF
your opinions is not worse than throwen
away. You may vote for Democrat to
defeat Republican, or for a Republican
to defeat Democrat, and in so doing may
be actuated by. motives that mayi appear
iustifiable, but it is vote forever lost
from the fact that you have exercised
your elective privilege TO the utter disre
rard of the principles you espouse, and
consequently 10 the sacrifice OF your owr
ideas Of right aud wrong. T.,
We say, then, to the American party o
tho State Of Ohio, vote for the candidates
upon your ticket. They were placed ther'
by your delegates; they ale good men, an'
you have no right to sacra6ce them 10
the qualification of petty prejudices o
personal preferences. They were tendre'
your nominations with the certainty Of de
feat before them, and they did not shrinI
from you when you ask them to stand fort
as the standard bearers Of tie party.
should be remembered in this electio
there is something else at stake than th
near idea of present success. Our oppO
nents are divided among themselves o
the one hand, and on the other the issu
over which they have labored is gone, an

large produce house in that city, which
