81 The last Grecnsborough Patriot speaks Of
the New Jersey election Is Every encouraging 70
conservative men all over the Union" Now the
fact ID, the Governor elect Of New Jersey, over
whose success the Patriot rejoices, Is . black Re
publican. He Was first nominated BY the black Re-
pubcans, and was then taken up on the same day
by the Know Nothings whose Convention was in
session at the same time and place with that Of the
black Republicans These facts were duly and fully
set forth at the time in the New York Herald, the
New York Times, and other papera
The same number Of the Patriot also contains q

DEATH OF "BnLY GAp."-We learn that Will
liam Cab, for many years sojOurner Of this
city, and an altachee Of hotels and restaurants,
died at the City Infrmary yesterday morning
and was buried yesterday afternoon. He was
clever man; was possessed Of more than ordi'
nary intelligence, but was unfortunately addic
ted to too free use Of ardent spirits. His life
has been chequred and romantic, and would
doubtless afford the basis for an interesting histo
ry. We are too little posted to give any Of the
points. cat last Billy has handed in his
Chips. and throwed up his hand /" His life
struggle is over, and he is At rest.

REMaMBHRi

Remember, Fellow Citizens, as you make
your bed on tomorrow, 30 you will have to
lie in t. 1.-THE candidates Of the Republi-
can ticket are elected, you must expect that
the practice Of the sorting houses, which is
TO take up the issues Of our own Banks and
draw out their coin, will be continued; and
the practice of the usurers to loan money at
8 per cent month will not be disturbed
Remember-That is the issue Deacon
Comfy raised, by the presentation of his
usury ticket. 1t cannot be avoided. Such
an effort now, comes too late. The people
are determined to protect themselves by a
Usury and Independent Treasury Law.

Is Old Deacon Comfy the Re-
nmhlicnm PnrtYi

We disclaim, any intention Of saying any
thing Of the Republican party or it's candidates
except what legitimately belongs to the can
vass but the assumption Of that bold faced,
convicted slauderer, that he is the Republican
party, and an expose Of his filthy and detestable
course az public Journalist, Is an attack on
that organization, is piece Of unparalleled
effrontery, Deacon Comfy, whose polluted
soul seems to be the very dregs of what enters
The composition Of a friend incarnate, assuming
that be is the Republican party Why, sir,
the veriest imposter that ever disgraced the
annals Of the world would not be guilty Of SO
deliberate and mean a lie. II Deacon Comfy

publican party, it's utter humiliation would
instantly be q fixed fact

WANTS THE MoNEY.-In former years,
under the loose system of keeping the pub
lie money, the Journal men had their arms
into the County Treasury up to their elbows
and used the public money to carry on their
business. Now, that the Democratic party
have stopped that game, by the Independ-
ent Treasury Law, the Journal is frantic for
q change to the old system, so that it can
use the public money. The Democratic
bolts and bars are not what they want
hence their opposition to it The people can
see through their silly nonsense and CAB
bling; they know that under the present law
the peoples money is safe, and they also
know it is THAT that makes the Journal so
venemous.

States funds are deposited with banks, dc
they remain IN circulation, but the danger has
beeu aod will be again, IL Mr.. Dennson and bis
party be successful, that the mouey will cir.
eulae and roll on and on until il gets beyond
the reach Of the State Authorities.
We regret that our space will not permit ne
to give any further extracts from this very able
speech Of Mr.. Hofer. We can only say, that in
the same mastery and convincing manner he
discussed the homestead question, proving bes
yond doubt, that democrats originated IT,
that they passed It In the U s. House Of Rep>
resentatives three times by clean democratic
naiorities, while in the Republican Congress Of
1855, aud 1857, when their champion Mr.
Banks was chosen Speaker. tae Republican ma.
ority did nothing towards enscting it, He
counselled obedience to the laws Of our coun
try, en- acted in pursuance Of the compromises
Of the Constitution, alluding particularly to the
fugitive slave ae. BE said that without these
compromises, without that concession to the
slave holding States, that their fugitives from
service should be surrendered IL claimed, this
Union could never have been formed and, elo'
quently remarked the speaker, among all the
citizens Of this country, il behooves Us az its
adopted sons 10 faithfully and firmly adhere
those compromises, that that very constitution,
which originated from them, grants us liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness, it enabled US to
throw off the shackles Of monarchical oppress
sion TO seek new homes In free country whose
free citizens we became. II that compact bad
never been entered into, il those promises had
never been made, those pledges never been Civ
en- by one portion Of the States 10 the other, the
United States of America would not be known
in History, and this glorious country could
never have been an asylum for the oppressed
and the down-trodden people of Europe
Grateful for the unparalleled privileges we enA
Joy under that Constitution, we adopted citi
zens ought also on the other hand comply with
all Of It's provisions, to prevent the whole from
being put in danger by the attacks of passion
and fanaticism. This eloquent passage was
received with TREMENDOUS applause and its
effect upon the people was visible.
Iu conclusion the speaker exhorted all TO dc
their duty and not be missing when the day
of election, the day Of our political battle
dawned.
Mr.. Hofer was followed by l. N. Jordan
ESQ, who made one Of his telling and effective
speeches. His explanation aud elaboration oi
the inscriptions on the several transparencieS
in the Hall, created great merriment; and the
flowing strain of his patriotic e1hortations, tC
stand by the integrity, and honor of their cOun
try. and to perpetuate its institutions produced
the highest enthusiasm.
The meeting broke up late and in the bes
spirit, and from what we saw that evening w'
predict,by the help Of our united german friends
a proud democratic triumph.

Has IL come TO this,

The journal urges the election of Mr..
Rench as Treasurer, "because he can give
abundant security for the faithful perform
ance of the duties of his Office" Has it
come to this, that man must be rich in
order to hold Office This we know is one
Of the outrageous doctrines of the opposi'
ton party. But we wish it distinctly un'
derstood that in case Of the election Of Mr..
Ayres, he will be able to furnish just as
good bond as Mr.. Renoh, OF any Of the
money clique who are so tHteTestedly aux'
ious for his election, would dare to offer
Mr.. Ayres is fully competent for the Office
and though not perhaps, as rich as Mr.
Rench, his honesty and integrity of charac'
ter they dare not attack. The same game
was tried in regard to Mr.. Kenneyi but the
signal manner in which it failed, ought tC
be lesson to the Republicans not to try the
same thing over again.

LIsHMENT, which we hope will be creditaLle
TO the city, as well as to ourselves, and u. -
ful to the community as a medium through
which class of goods are supplied that Ill
are compelled to have; and all prefer to buy
where they can have confidence that 10
deceptive representations will be made and
no exorbitant prices demanded We have,
endeavored to give such character to cur
business and though but little more than
year and half since our commencement IN
Dayton, our efforts have already been rewau
ded by patronage so great, as to require a
much larger store to meet the demapds Of
our numerous customers. ~
In order to carry out tte original designs,
and to serve accepsably, all those who call
on us, we have taken The LAegE khw sroRE
ROOM, No. 76, MAIN STREET, which has been
recently fitted up for US at a very great Z,

and attractive place for business; and by
our own exertions to serve and please all

G1~ The Dayton Journal is still engaged in
its work Of falsehood and defamation against
us. It's column are filed again this morning,
with a reiteratiou of the stale ISLANDERS with
which it has been assAiling US for the last two
weeks. Its object is fully apparent. The edi-
tor of that paper is striving, with degree OF
energy worthy Of a better ca"se, to make politi
cal capital for his own party, by the most ma
licious and unfounded charges against u.s.
But his efforts will fail, The miserable subter
fugr behind which he attempts to hide himself,
is easily seen through. The people Of all para
ties understand him fully, and il his assaults
upon us do not recoil upon himself with re
doubled force, then we greatly mistake the tone
Of public sentiment among honest and uupreju'
diced men Of all parties, who have voluntarily
expressed their sentiments TO us, during the
pendency of this controversy.
As regards the issuing of City Bonds for the
benefit of the State Bank, the Record shows
that Mr.. Gebhart presented Il report from spe'
cial committee, to that efftct. Some days be
fore the meeting Of the Council, at which this
report was acted upon, Mr, GebhSrt presented
the paper referred to in the Journal, TO Mr.. Kin.
ney for his signature, and he signed it with the
distinct understanding that the act on his parl
referred only to the correctness of the cslcula-
tion made by Mr. Odlin and Auditor Dryden -
Ihe appendage to the report, to this effect, Wa'
written by Mr.. Kenney himself. But Mr. Ken
ney never voted for the issuing of these bonds
He opposed the measure throughout, as botl
MIR. Gebhart and Mr.. Achey, then members o.
Council, will, we have no doubt, if called upon
We have already replied, on several occasions
to the charges Of the Journal against us, in de
tail, showing that they had not the slightes
foundation in truth, and were instigAted BY thu
basest motives, for the sole purpose Of iniurinG
the election Of candidates on the Democratic
ticket We shall not go over thisground again
As we have before said, we have repeatedly
shown the falsity of the Journals charge
against us: but even if they were true, no on
having the least claim to honesty or iustie
would endeavor TO hold any one else response
BILE for our delinquencies. WeknOw Of no one
with the single exception OF the editor of tn
Dayton Journal, who would attempt anythin
u utterly devoid of fairness and right principle
