COLONEL FoRD.-Col. Ford, of Ohio, who
has been rendered conspicuous in connection
with the surrender of Harper's Ferry, is a ma
tive of Virginia by birth. At early manhood
he came to Mansfield, Ohio, where he was ad-
mitted to the practice of law, and where he
married. As young lawyer, he was not dis
tinguished by those qualities that are essential
to success and elevation-a clear, logical mind,
and unremitting study. He was rather of an
indoleut turn. but of prudent conversation and
honorable impulses. His habits were tempe
rate and moral, and his position in society res
pectablc. At about p years of age he joined
the Third Regiment of Ohio Volunteers, in
the Mexican war, and obtained the Captaincy
of the company raised at Mansfield. The regi-
ment was commanded by Gen. Curtis, the hero
of Pea Ridge it was stationed as a reserve
by Gen. Taylor at Camargo, to hold his base
while his army advanced to Monterey, which
was a responsible position, but gave the regi
ment no opportunity to distinguish itself in
battle. Col. Ford was not in any action in
that war. He returned home greatly impair
ed in health, resuming the practice of law on
his recovery, and became a politician, uniting
with the Republican party at its earliest for
nation, when he was elected Lieutenant Gov
ernor of that State, since which time his public
career is generally known.

if it is not contrary to Black Republican doc,

From the Cincinnati Enquirer

pay The Hon. G. L. Vallandig-
ham has obtained the greatest per,
sonal and political triumph ever
won by any public man in the Uni,
ted States. In the face of a storm
of abuse, obloquy, SANDER and de-
nunciation from every Abolition
print and every Abolition orator
from Maine to California, which in
fury was probably never cqualIed,
Mr.. Vallandigham has been en-,
dorse1 by the constituents whom
he represents in Congress by a ma.
.jority of 800 votes, an increase Of
700 since his last election in 1860.
Denouf1eed as a traitor, as a Scces.
sionist, al IAN enemy af his country
by the fawning parasites of power,
by vindictive political partisans
who have sought to make his name
synonymous with treason, his life
and liberty threatened by those
who were ignorant Of Ills political
record, he has appealed to the peor
pie of his district and he has been
triumphalftly sustained.
An increased majority Of 700
tells how little effect this shameful
bowling and persecution has had
upon the public mind. We have
no doubt that the abusive manner
in which Mr.. Vallandigham has
been prosecuted by his opponents
has added to the number of his
friends. 1t was a spectacle that
challenged admiration to see an
able, a bold and brave man stand
ing up for what he deemed right,
unawed by power and unseduced
by his personal advantages which
lay upon the other side. The
American people are q generous
people, and love to see fairness and
honesty displayed.
After the Endorsement of the pco.
ple'o of his district-after ten thou
sand American citizens have hon
ored him with their notes.-the
slandcrers of Mr.. Vallandigham
had better, for shame's sake, cease
their abuse. If they do not, there
is no knowing to what position of
prominence he may advance. If
Mr.. VallandigRam has been boat
en-, it is owing to the rascality of
an Abolition Legislature, which
made a district with especial view
to his defeat He has carried his
own district, but he could hardly
be expected to carry Tom Corwin's
in addition, which was saddled up
on him.
