Senator Wade, Of Ohio, made very
good speech in the U. S. Senate few
days ago, in which he defined the princi
pies Of the Republican party in tho fol
lowing language:
Our principles are only these; we hold
that slavery is wrong, and Inconsistent
with the best interests Of the people, and
we demand that itshal be limited. This
limitation will not be hard upon you, be-
cause you have land enough to support a
population as large as that Of Europe.
and centuries will roll away before you
will occupy what you now have. The
next thing we hold is the principle Of the
Homestead bill; and we demand, also that
there shall be protection to Northern Ia
Dor against the pauper labor of Europe.
These are the only measures Of the Re.
publican party.
This is regular old Wing doctrine-the
platform is composed Of old Wing lum-
ber, and it is one upon which any homes t
freeman might stand with perfect proprie
ty. Ii the Republican party want 10 tli,
umph, let them adopt the above little pa.
ragraph as their platform. 1t is long
enough and broad enough. for all practical
purposes--there is not any too much nor
any too little of it--there is just enough.

WoMANs RIGHTs IN CINCINNATI.--A
person was arrested at Cincinnati, last weel
on suspicion Of beng man in woman's
clothes. Two policemen escorted her to
a magistrates office, followed by vir-
tuons crowd. The situation was embar.
RAISING to a woman but she established
her feninity by evidence which has been
accepted as satisfactory ever since The
first woman was created. This rather
embarrassed the police and the magistrate
so to relieve himself he sent her TO jail

We recommend, says the Conneau
Reporter, a careful reading OF the follow
article from the Cleveland Herald:
We know Of nothing that is more dis
heartening to the publisher of a country
newspaper than to be told, as he too Of
zen is when soliciting subscribers: 81

The Tribune, or some other huge foreign
weekly and it only costs me one dollar
a.year, and it contains twice as much
reading as yours does" when the re.
ceipls OF one week Of the office named
above would be double the yearly recei-
pts Of his county paper, and when if the
foreign papers were published seventy
years, it would not result to as much
benefit 10 himself and county in which
he lives as would single weeks edition
Of his own county paper,
Recclect, if a home paper is to be

Never will such man take paper prin-
ted away from home until he is able to
take second paper. His first will be

Extra Session of tho Legislature.

Both houses Of the Legislature have
decided TO adjourn on the s6lh inst to
meet again on the LIST day Of next JAN
uary, The resolution was not passed
by ararty V te-aportion Of both parties
voted for it.
While we are in favor not only of nm
nual sessions, but annual elections fol
members Of the Legislature, we are no
in favor OF these extra sessions. II We
are TO have session Of the Legislature
every winter, in the name Of common
serse why not SO amend our Constitution
and laws as to provide for the meeting
of the Legislature annually; and also to
provide for the annual crction Of mem
bers, instead Of allowing gentlemen who
have been elected for one session 10 force
themselves upon the people for sec
ond.
There may be a good reason for an ad
journed session Of the present Legislature,
but we opine tina! il will require good
deal Of explanation TO satisfy US pIebians
up here in the rural districts that an,
such reason exists. Our people have be
come little skeptical upon that point
1t is true, Columbus is very pleasant
place TO sTend Tie winter scason-they
have very good dinners, very good Oys'
tiers. very good Champaign, and very
good living g,rerally-and the people
have no objection to their Legislators
going their every winter in order to in
dulge in these luxuries, but they would
prefer having them do ii about half the
time at their own expense. They have an
idea that they are paying most "loo deal
for the whistle" However wen leave
them to settle this little matter of differ
ence between themselves and the soyer
egps in their own way
