Gov. Reeder on Politics.

lin letter, declining to be consid
cred candidate for Governor, thi:
month, Ex-Gov. Recdcr says j
Discriminating and rejecting men
must see, that TO foster and extend
human slavery, and to surrender the
departments of governor, with all
their patronage and influence, to the
control Of its advocates, is to travel
the straight road which leads to the
establishment Of mob law, and the de-
struction Of freedom of speech, action,
opinion and suffrage, and through
that, with inevitable certainty to oil
garchy and despotism whilst to
build up, enlighten and dignity labor,
is to deepen and strengthen the foua-
dations Of selfgovernmcnt, and to in
crease and extend the blessing Of in
telligence. good order, well regulated
liberty. national wealth and power.
lntImatcly,pcrhaps inscparably con-
ncctcd with this, is the other ques-
ton, whether American Labor shall
be protected through our revenue
laws against foreign competition ?
Pennsylvania demands this protection,
and ought to have it. Our candidate
should he as sound on this point as on
tie other. | know that the Rcpubli-
can party IS not Us unanimous Oh this
as on the former question, but the
People Party of Pennsylvania arc F.;
and believe That the great dominant
controlling mass Of the Republicans
OF the nation. are with them, and will
make it part Of their platform. In
deed | can not understand how man
can be free trade Republican. Mea- /
ming no disrespect to adverse opin-
ions, they seem to me plainly para
doX!cal. To the deyeiopemcnt Of
free, Intelligent labor, this protection
Is a necessity, whilst slavery and free
trade are the most natural allies. so
true Is this, that if our Union ended
at Mason and Dixon's line or was
composed entirely Of free States, there
would be but one opinion upon the .
subject. and free-trade doctrines would
become a curiosity.

BEWARE OF TRAVELLING DEALERS
The public should be on their guard
against all kinds of impositions like
ly to be practiccd by travelling vend-
ers Of merchandise. When men or
women want goods, they had better
90 to a regular established store or
trading place, and get good articles,
than to pay large prices for damaged
articles from some one-horse travelling
dealer. If you want a good pair of
pants, or any other clothing, 90 to a
well established house, and you will
not be cheated. If you want boots
or shoes, DO the same thing. If you
want watches, iewclry, or any other
goods, be sure TO 90 to some perma-
nent store. and you can always be di
rected Alright by referring to our ad-
yertising columns.

Not Our STYLE.

Every few weeks We receive from an in
diyidual who claims TO be the "originator
of the gift book enterprise" circular, get

by a list of equally trashy '.jewelry." We
are modcs;ly requested 10 advertise this
list, which would I'll nearly column Of

selected from the list.
The Cincinnati C,mmcrcial, upon this
subject, truthfu!ly remarks that there are
some men whom long career Of qnackery
has totally disqualified from viewing thing,
in their just relations. In most meD, the
impulence of such roqucs; as the above,
made TO respectable newspaper, to aiver-
ti,eawre'ched lottery of pluchbock jewelry
and mcretrcous books, would be unpara!-
.eied. But coming from Il systematic ira
der in the policy scheme and lottery bu.i.
ness, man who has reduced the art Of
humbug TO a science, and sounded all the
notes Of the scale Of charla,aury, it is
probably to be treated as thing of course.
10 expect the press Of the country to lend
itself to cheap lottery schemes, and to take
its pay in coprer'washed jewelry and SEN
saticn novels, is about as high a conception
Of the functions Of the press as enters into
the brains Of deyotcc Of the noble science
of "taking in"
We would inform this vender Of puack

others who are trying to diddle the iuno-
cent out of their hard earned dollars, that
we do not publish a paper for the benefit

whenever the press throughout the couu-
try, refuse to be imposed upon themselves,
and they in turn refuse to impose upon
their readers BY inserting every vagabond

BAD ADvIcE.-City papers are ad
vising the houscless, homeless wander
ers who infcst the cities, to leave and
seek employment among the farmers
in the country. This advice is given,
probably, through interested motives.
There is as great scarcity of employ
mcnt in the country as there can be
in the cities and large towns, and our
poor houses are filed with those who
have come to the rural districts in
the vain hope Of finding something TO
do. Keep your poor at home, and
provide for them during the inclem-
ent season. We are willing to sup
port our own unfortunatcs, but care
not to bc taxed for the sustcnancc Of
those who may be driven from the
large cities, where so much wealth
ahounds. In Summer, people Of the
cities may seek work at farming,
properly, but in the Winter have
none to give ont.

Whipping and branding.

These punishments are still practiced in
the army, on deserters. Two soldiers who
had deserted in Minnesota, and subsequently
re-enlisted at New York, were taken to Point
Comfort recently, and there recognized as
deserters, whipped forty lashes each, branded
and drummed out. What necessity is there
for any more barbarous punishments in our
army, in time of peace, than in our criminal
code? Desertion to the enemy in time of
war is very different thing from merely
breaking contract and abandoning the serv-
ice in time of peace, when a substitute can
easily be had. 1t is the idea Of the terrible
punishment inflicted on deserters in war, and
a custom which has come down to us from
nations where the people are regarded as the
retainers and serfs of the Prince, that has
preserved their barbarous custom in our
army. Such a system Of terror does not
belong to free government. Branding be-
longs with manning and ear-cropping.
Whipping has been abolished for offenses in
the service, and there is nothing in the ma
ture of the offense of desertion in this nation,
in time of peace, that warrants it.

Apother Bauk of Issue I'm Ohio.

The Toledo Times, a Douglas paper, an
nounces that Parmalee & Co.'s Bank, in that
city, win issue its notes as soon as arrange
ments can be effected under the general
banking law. 1t is to be called the Marine
Bank of Toledo. The Times hopefully says:
"The present bank is very popular-but a
bank of issue-giving us home currency,
is needed, and will be hailed with delight by
our business men and all classes Of our citi
zens." ......
That promise of "home currency" to be
furnished by the Marine Bank, had better be
told to marines. If the people of Toledo
hold on to their halls of delight until the
bank furnishes home currency, they may
have no occasion for them at all, unless this
bank is different from all other banks. A
bank might just as well furnish coin for O
home currency, as its own notes; and it will
be generally found that the more banks
there are at home, the less home currency
they furnish. ui
We presume it is generally supposed that
all our general banking laws are dead or the
privileges created by them appropriated.
The general free-banking law was made be-
fore the new Constitution, and was declared
by Democratic Attorney General, to have
been superseded or repealed by the Consti-
tuition, except as to banks already organized.
Since the Republican administration came
in, the present Attorney-General has de-
clared that the banking law was not repealed,
but is still in full virtue. This, we believe,
is the first attempt made to put it in force.
We suppose that the validity of the law is
still open to the opinion of another Attorney
General, in case Democrat should be elected,
as well as to the Supreme Court. These
questions, or decisions, are not, however,
regarded as very Objectionable by bankers
after their "home currency" is all in circu-
latinn.

Commencement at OharIIn.

The twenty-seventh annual commence
ment of this Colleg ge occurred last week. No !
place in the country is SO misrepresented as
Oberlin, even in Ohio. It is the habit to
speak of il as hot-bed of narrow fanat-
icism. Wealk-spined Republicans from the
Southern and otherparts of State, who are
afraid of the shadow of the principles which
they profess, try to compromise with them
selves by talking of 0berlin radicalism; the
eowardice Of the party, when it comes to
meet in State Convention, or General As
sembIy, is vented in that direction.
In 0berlin they believe in the epolitical and
civil equality Of all men, and try to practice
it. Let those who think the practice is de-
grading to the superior race, strike out the
principle from the Declaration of Inde-
dence.
If Republicanism, when carried out, stops
short Of this, it has no principle to stand on.
But Oberlin is a place of liberal education
and culture, and it has all the civilization
and hberslity which always follow these in
fuences. The place was founded for a Col
lege, and the College is the controlling
influence of the place. To talk of narrow
minded fanaticism, Of people where any
opinions, and any people, will be received
with kindness, courtesy and hospitality, is a
misuse of terms; almost as much as it is to
talk of chiyalry and hospitality where mob
law is the first and last argument
Among the other attractions of Oberlin is
monster choir with organ and orchestra,
which is capable of the grandest, as well as
the most minute effects. For instance, a
number of Democratic reporters from Cleve-
land went there last summer to bray against
Oberin, ON the occasion Of the reception of
the Wellington rescuers from their imprison-
ment, and returned like Baalams sounding
the praises of It's choir, its large congrega-
tion of cultivated people, and its courtesy
and hospitality.
We feel il our duty TO speak justly Of Ober-
lin, because the Republican papers, especially
in this part of the State, are too timid to do
it, and the Democratic Journals try to make
political capital by abusing il; while in our
position we have the blessed privilege OF
speaking the truth mJrytw ssrs.
Gov. Denpison was at the commencement
and made some remarks. At the close Of the
exercises Of the theological class, a scene
characteristic of the place, happened. A
Professor announced that he had received 3.
from a LADY, former student, to purchase
eornsrsiene for new hall for the ladies
