The papers heresbouts who pretend to advo
cate the claims Of Douglas, are afraid 70 say
anything about the new platform. They ar'
efiiicted with the loci. Jaw .-JourRaL
Our nelghbor on Main street has lost teal
friends, is in mourning, and Of course fesl'
miserable As he has no company With whom
to divide his bad feeling, he seems 10 take
some little satisfaction in feebly expressing his
III humor at us; but, bless your dear old soul
there are no papers hereabOuts that pretend TO
advocate the claims Of Douglas afs
We have said that. as the people Of the coun.
try generally, and Of Ohio in particular, have
clearly exhibited decided preference for Sem
ator Douglas as The candidate Of tbe Democra-
cray for President, he is mRnifestly "the right
man for the place." We have all along said
that our individual preferences should not be
insisted on. TO make a fuss in the ranks, bot
that when the people clearly indicated pho was
"Ihe man." it would be time snough--and
the proper time--to second their wishes. We
have done 30; and for the life Of US, Deacon,
we can see no prsteHse in this. Our defersncs
TO the wishes Of the masses has been 10 strong
contrast with your imprudenee in demanding
that the people should do as you DESIRED
We are going along in the current smoothly,
while you, leaving the chnts, landed in quag

unpalatable food offered you. Your talk about

log from jaws that have been closed since last
Saturday We can pity you, bat we can't

TBAT "BRAe DRuHMER."-Ifit will please our
contemporary Of the Columbus Fact we will admit
that its "little Teuton" is brag drummer; he
ant any thing else. As we are convinced that
our cotsmpOrary meant nothing by his bOaSting,
and only let offs little gas, will let his witiy)
attemptsat covering trails pass without further
comment.
We will add, however, that Msssrs. Robinson
and Nevan will visit Columbus after they get
through with their engagement at the Military
Fair here, and give the people in that place taste
of their quality. We hope the "lIttlo ToutOn''
will get courage to call and SEQ them perform,

qTWe notice that the Senate amendment TO
the Game Law--which we revived recently
has passed the House. Ifeyer party Of regular
Mugginses were put together by accident, they
are the dominant gentlemen in the Ohio Leg,
islature. Wen bet they don't know buckwheat
from sun flower seed; they certainly don't
know the game seasons. We see that one OF
these flat heads has introduced bill to prevent
"strikes" for higher wages by mechanics and
labOrers. They are having big success in their
efforts to prove themselves asSes. We may exA
pect to have them pass law regulating the
rising and setting Of the sun | They must be
0in liauor."

THE MoDE.-Favorte has just received his
first supply of spring style of hats. They are
all nice, but some of them are positively
"beauties." The spring style Of silk hats are
neat, and just the weight hats ought to be. They
are warranted not to give the wearers the head
ache. The soft hats are Of every possible style
there is no positive fashion in the style of sofl
hats. The taste Of the purchaser is the criteri-
on. Call in at Favorite's New Becksl Building,
Third st., and take a look at ths new styles Of
head wear. Pricee are put down so low that
no one need do without decent hat.

CONTINUED suocEss.--Last night turned out
much more disagreeable than we had counted
on, and we had no idea that one lady in the
city would think of attending the Fair; but
we were mistaken 10 that There were quito
a number Of the fair sex present, aud it would
seem that not even the raining Of 'pitchtorks,
point foremost" would keep them away from
the Fair This is only another evidence Of the
sttractiveness Of the place.
This evening new and exquisite Tablesux
will be given, and one or two of the best of the
series will be repeated. The medly Of Horn-
pipes, by Robinson and Nevan. is worth half a
dozen dimes. Other big attractions win be
offered. Go toSnight.

good authority, errors in its columns being
thicker than huckleberries, and making
