REASONABLE WoMAN.-The Chicago III J
Tribune says, day or two since lady Of unusual
amplitude Of crfnoline got into one Of the street
railroad cars. She spread her skirts over the adj
jacent seats TO the horror Of the conductor, who
calculated on rush of passengers Immediately
After arranging matters and things the lady called
the conductor and said: :. How many seats 10 you
think L occupy?'' He was an unmarried man, and
not caring about exaggeratng the matter. replied:
" Three seats" With that the lady hlnded over
fifteen cents, saying: There's the pay for three
seats-now don't let me be disturbed And she
not.

Electi on in Portage County.

Our County election affords some topics for
thought and reflection.
The ticket splitting propensity in the Re-
pnbl caH ranks is q noticeable feature, but un-
pleasant to contemplate. and unless checked,
bodies nothing but evil. # III
We would not interfere with any mans
right of private judgement or with his honest
convictions If one entertains conscientious
scruples in regard to supporting given can
didate, let him freely, and without eensure or
rebuke quietly refuse to vote for him let
him lot violate his conscience. Such man
we, can respect, while We may feel regret at
bis action. Ell
But it does not necessarily follow, becanse
an elector may refuse to vote for a given
candidate. that he may, ith the same propri
ETY., 60 further, and vote for his opponent, the
enemy of our principles, and enter into com
b,natiol against Republican nominees, and by
consequence against our organization. He
who thus does exerts a hostile influence. and
his efforts tend to cripple, disorganize and ruin
our party organization, and with our orsani
cation, our principles go down.
We have noticed for two or three years
past, that certain of our candidates have beer
singled out by our opponents. as speeiaiities
and the whole weight of opposition broughf
to bear against them. In this way, the ma
jorities of such candidates have been decreased
as good many indifferent or thoughlless Re
publicaDs suffer themselves to be Influenced
by opportunities, 80 far as 10 neglect certain
of our own candidates, and vote for their oppo
merits. ..s<.e r. s.t. r.as

GOV. BANKS and ]. B. Giddiugs.

Gov. Banks of Massachusetts,, and Hon.
J. R. Giddings of Ohio, were both present at
the late State Fair in Vermont, and each de
Iivered addresses Gov. Banks in the course
of his address said at
al am very glad that have been privileges
to hear part of the discourse of my friend
Mr. GidGings, this evening. | am more pleas
ed that you have heard the whole, for no cne
knows these scenes only those that were pres
ent. 1t is right we should present the rela
tions of these controversies, not so much for
the formation of opinion as TO understand the
character of the men who should represent
US, the qualities of which enabled them 10
stand the fire. 1t is very easy for US to see
that man may be gentleman, Christian,
and a scholar, and yet not be best for Rep
resentative. 1t is not these qualities alone
which enable him to exert controlling inau
ence in Congress. but the man of ipdomitable
courage, like that of the gentleman who has
spoken to Us this evening When you get a
good man there, keep him there. The people
of Ohio have committed fault in not return
ing Mr. Giddings to Congress. I rose to say
that the reputation which has been given OF
Joshua r. Giddiugs, is wrong one. He has
been called Radical, but no man has been
more reasonable, sound aud cool, than this
same gentleman who has been trumpeted
throughout the country as fanatic. 1t is
Impossible for me to rep;e esent how much
strength such man may rave in the country.
When great questions come before Congress
they come up and are decided in an instant
there is no time to make up an opinion
Then these men of long experience and cool
judgement gather others around them and
lead TO victory. W hen victory is won. it is
not all ; You want man whose name carries
with it the idea that the measure was wise
humane and good. Such man was the gen
tleman before you. Therefore, as had occa
sion to say short time since in NJ Massachusetts ts
it is wrong to take such men from Congress
and trust her people will improve by this
lesson, and hold OF to good Representative.
