The unity Of the Black Republican
press Of thi State on the late opposi-
ton commissions is highly questionable.
For instance Just hear one Of the out
spoken Republican pape's, the Rep"b-
licaa Ns'ss, . paper Of the Republican
stripe, published at Mt. Pleasant
Speaking Of the nomination Of Mr..
kuscb, itsays:

licAn The editor Of the Meas speaks
the mind Of every American Republic
an in the State. There was not one
in the State Convention that did rec
oguize'the right the Germans Of this
State to demand" &c, but they (the
Germans)did demand it,and the "views"
we're forthcoming. The Germans also
demanded more; they demanded one Of
the most prominent positions on the
State Ticket, aud the demand had to
be considered-Mr. Rusch was placed
upon it ~ candidate for Lieutenant
Governor in the very face and eyes of
sspirsnts more able, or At least SO con-
sidered. The editor Of the leading
Republican organ Of Henry county
may be right in his conclusions, yet
the party will not thank him for his
honesty and frankness. They know
very we'll why Mr.. busch was put in
nomination for Lieutenant Governor
it was simply becauee they could not
get rid Of it. This also the Nescs
ought to know. But Why have not
the Germans right TO make such .
dsmands The same paper furnishes
the answer. 1t saya:
