We do not think the Standard would know
ingly and wilfully misrepresent the position of
a Republican candidate for the purpose of
making capital against him-and hence we
presume when he says Mr.. Lincoln "voted
against sending supplies to our soldiers in
Mexico" he was not aware of the fact that
the charge has no foundation in truth, that
Mr. Lincoln himself has denied it, and that
the Democratic paper in Illinois which first
started it has long since, on becoming satisfied
of its error, made reporation by aeknowledg-
ing that in so charging it had done Mr.. L.
injustice.

The Democracy held their State Conve

The Democracy held their State Conven
vention at Columbus on the 4th, to which day
it had been postponed in consequence of the
failure to make nominations at Charleston. Nc
daily papers being issued in Columbus on the
5th, we have no account of the proceedings
though we learn verbally that Mr.. SMITH, OF
Montgomery was nominated for SupremeJudg2,
Mr.. SrAMBAuGH, of Tuscarawas for Attorney
General, and Mr.. Backus. of Lucas, the pres
ent incumbent. for Member of the Board OF
Public Works. It was Douglas affaii, in
which the adherents of Breckinridge were re-
garded as intruders and ruled out. They pro-
pose holding separate convention of their
own.
The Central Committee were sharp in cal.
ling a ''Y oung Mems Douglas Mass Meeting"
on the 4th- There is always large crowd in
Columbus on that day-and all who were
there on Wednesday, for whatever purpose or
of whatever political proclivities, will doubt
less be claimed as members of the convention,
which on the strength of such aids will be
characterized an immense affair and affording
unmistakable evidence of the strength of Doug
las-a harmless Illusion, which the ides of No
vember will thoroughly dispel.

I4INcoLN's ELECTION CoNcEDED.-The New
York Herald, which stood by the democracy
until the final snap-up, says Of that result:
The event marks a new epoch, new depart
ure, new order Of things, in our political af-
fairs. For good or evil it is the most momen-
toas event in our political history since the first
election of Jefferson. What is to follow p
The triumph of the Republicans-the election
of Lincoln, Republican Congress, Repub-
lcan Administration-and what then? The
Imagination vainly endeavors to compass the
comprehensive changes thus foreshadowed in
our political parties, and our whole political
system.

LINCOLN's SPEECH.

We give to-day the admirable speech, de
1ivered by our Presidential candidate last
Feb, in New York city, and commend it to
the attention of the reader. The Republicans
claim to be contending for the same princi
ples as relates to the subject of confning sla-
very within its legitimate limits, that were
entertained and acted upon by the fathers OF
the Republic and Mr.. Lincoln most clearly
proves the claim to be well founded Read
the speech carefully, and hand it to your neigh
Dor with the injunction to keep it circulating.
