The Republican journals Of Ohio are sorely
out of temper because the Democracy OF State
have called a Convention Of their own desire to
fraternize only with such men OF other parties
Us are ready 10 unite in discountenancing the
unfortunate sectional warfare which has bro''
CUR country to its present unhappy condition.
This bad temper on the part OF our opponents,
is foolish and unreasonable. The Democracy
Of Ohio are firmly convinced that in order to
re establish tranquility and good feeling be
tween the various Iarts Of the Union, it is es
sential that The country should be freed from
anti slavery fanaticism as well as from South
orn Secession. Whilst they look upon the lat
ter as the great evil which is to be met and
overcome, they regard the former as curse to
the country which all good men should aid in
putting down. Instead Of agreeing to this lat
ter proposition. the crafty leaders ofthe Repub.

Who is Responsible for the Late
DiSasterf

The events Of Sunday last, which forced tn
Army Of the Potomac to resume its old quarter
near Alexandria, show that General Scott kneV
what the occasion OF taking Richmond demand
ed, much better than did Greeley and thos'
Republican members of Congress, who wer'
constantly progging him to forward move
ment at this time did not meet the full cnnsen
o! General Scotps mind. He was not ready FOL
it. But he could not be insenSible to the con
slant Efforts that were being made to destroy
his reputation as Commander in Chief and tc
belittle him in the eyes of his countrymen, BY
leading Republ can journals. He was repre-
sented as "a red-tape General'-as unwilling
to move II one wagon was wauting--as waiting
to get cavalry horse shod, and requiring 'hi,
and that, ridiculous in themselves, and calcula-
ted to bring him into contempt.
1t was suggested also that il he did not meet
the public expectation by moving without de
lay upon the enemy, he was in danger of being
superseded by mob. and more active person
put in his place. Not only that, but his ap-
parent backwardness was contrasted to his dis.
advantage, with the gallant and successful
movements of General Mcclellan, who was Ell.
loeized to the utmost limit of hyperhole for his
rapid and energetic movements.
Then the Administra ion was as impatient as
Greeley and company. lnded, they had been
,ermented by outsiders to hurry up "tbe old
fogy General" and given to understand that
they might be driven into the Potomac, ard a
military dictator put in the chair Of the Presi-
dent. General Scott resisted as lorg as he
could. lie knew that he was now engaged in
the most monentouS undertaking OF his life, and
on the success Of which depended so much, and
he was anxious to be fully prepared for the oc-
casion He knew what he would have to meet
and, therefore, ielt keenly the responsibility
that WIS upon him. But he would have been
more or less than man to have wihstood all
these proggings. He was spnrred forward by
Greeley and Company, and the result is before
the country. The whole thing will have to he
gone over aglin. A fresh start will have to be
made. Troops will have 10 be disciplined
month or two; horses for the f"ld batteries will
have to be trained, and new guns and artillery
stores be provided,
1t is 10 be hoped that Greeley & Co. will
hereafter let General Scott alone The late
battle may be called theirs. They are enti.
tied to the credit Of it. Let the credit of the
next belong solely to the old Chief. lie knows
what he is about ard understands more thor
oughly than any one hut the rebel leaders them

Great Anti-AbOlitiOn Meeting tn
Mount Vernon, Ohio, i'm SS6.

4 49, Oshh~p So
A friend has furnished US with the following
proceedings of large NEE ing held in Mount
Vernon, on the Cd Of May, 1896. Of which OuE
townsman, Henry B. Curtis, Esq, was Chair
man. The resolutions, in strong and pointed
language, denounce and expose the incendiary
teachings Of Abolitonism; and although some
folks may think that they iavor the application
of gag lao, co suppress the Abolition nuisance,
yet no doubt our citizens twenty FIVE years ago,
considered that the besl way to dispose of those
pestilential diI'urbcrs Of the public peace, who
then, as now, were the real cause Of all or ma.
tional troubles:
From the Mt. Vernon Day Book,
Anita bOIitiOu Meeting.
At very full and numerous meeting OF the
citizens OF the town of Mt. Vernon convened at
tie Court House on the evening of he I'd May
1885. II. B Curtis, Esq. was called to the chair
and John w Cotton. appointed secretary.
The chair briefly stated the object of the
meeting. after which the following resolutions
were adopted with great unanimty.
ReSoNved, That we view with deep regret the
violence evineed on various occasions, BY many
ot our cizens, when the question Of abolition
has been agitsted among them; that as com
nunity governed by laws and not by violence,
we disapp'ove OF such conduct, and take this
opportunity Of expressing our indignation
ganst it, no. that We feel disposed 10 screen
the cause of abolition from an expression of that
Indignation which it merits, hut as the fieuds
Of good order, we are opposed to acts of vic.
ence.
Whereas in the opinion of this meeting recent
events present to us demOnstraive evidence
ofthe dangerous and inf ,mmatory tendency
OF the doctrine OF abolitiunSm; and whereas
we sincerely helive this doctrine to be found
ed in error at least aad that there is great
reason 10 fear that some designing persons
are giving eoun enance to. it, for the purpose
ofgratifyng their own ambitious views at the
risk OF the safety Of the constitution. There.
fore
Reso'ved, That we consider the doctrine as
dangerous TO our constitution and liberties; IN
furious to the peace, welfare and happiness OF
our community, unavalng and useless in be
halt OF the o. iects for whose benef' il is intend
ed and virtually suhversive Of that compact
which was obtained BY the valor and sealed
with the blood OF our forefathers.
ResolUed, As the sense Of this meeting, that
we view the doctrines aRd conduct Of the abo
litioniSts as revolutionary in their tendency,
and aiming a. the overthrow Ofthe constitution
FOUR country, and that they evincc an unhal-
10" ed determination to carry ont their object
wi all its attendant horrors, peaceably (per
haps) il thev can, forciblv if thew must.
