THE CRITTENDON DEMONSTRATION
IN OHIO AND KENTUCKY.

WHAT DOES 1T TEAous
We published yesterday full and inter-
estng account Of the reception of the good
old Kentucky Senator, John J. Crittenden, by
the people of Ohio and Kentucky. on his re-
turn from Congress. 1t was hearty and meant
all that IL said IL becomes important to con-
slider the circumstances which produced it. be-
cause they contain lesson which public men
and politicians would do well to consider.
Two or three years ago Nh Crittenden lost
much Of the bold he had upon the people of
Ohio, because of his offering voluntarily to
defend Mat Ward for the murder Of the Lou
isville school mastor. lie seems to have re-
gained not only what he lost, but to have add
dod TO it.
Mr. Crittendcn is how hailed everywhere as
national man. a man of liberal and states
manlike views, and as evidence of it they point
to his course in the Senate during the late
session, and particularly to his opposition to
the Lecompton swindlc. We admit the eyi-
dcnce, and we approve Of his course, but
while Mr.. Cuttenden is applauded for doing
what he did and is put forth as prc-cminently
national man, the Senators and Representa-
tives from the free states who led the anti
Locomptou forces, who have for four years
stood up like men against the whole Kansas
iuiquity-from the repeal Of the Missouri
compromise down to the passage of the En-
glish bride bill, these men who have thus act
ed and thus voted arc called sectional Now
