Brough for Governor.

The Republican State Convention,
yesterday, backed Gov. Tod off the track
and nominated John Brough, a renegade
Democrat, for Governor. 1t must be
humiliating to honest Republicans to
lind that their leaders fear to show their
principles and dare not nominate Re-
publican standard bearer, but must take
rotten turncoat from our party.
One great cause of the barren fruits
resulting from Republican Administra'
tions, is that their leaders are always
setting on rotten eggs, thrown away by
By The Democracy.
Here is Brough's political pedigree
This gentleman renounced the Dem
ocratic party in 1855, and voted with
the Republican (or Abolition) party fol
Fremont for President. He has voted
the Abolition ticket steadily ever since
which is seven years. Despite this fact
he is now paraded in the Commercial
and Gazette as u Democrat The trutl
is, Mr.. Brough became sore and mac
with the Democrats as far back as l845
because the Democratic Administration
of Mr.. Polk did rot tender him Csb

could not endure this slight-this failur

The President on the Release OF

President Lincoln, ln letter dated
June IL, in reply to New York Com
mittee of Democrats, says that, if left
to his own discretion, be does not know
whether he would have ordered the ar
rest of Mr.. Vallandigham. He further
thinks that his Generals know better
what conduces to the public safety in
their districts than he does; and he adds
that he will restore Mr.. Vallandigham
to- Liberty as soon as be can learn, by
any means, that the public safety will
not suffer by it. Two hundred thousand
Democrats of Ohio have pledged them
selves that the public safety shall not
suffer by ele;ting him Governor and
500, 900 more in the other loyal States
have offered to go on his bond to pre-
serve the Union. If these 100000 10y

could not get fat appointment from the

mont in 1866. since which he has voted

dent Of o rail road company, and is in.
.debted to the influence of the rail road
companies Of Ohio, for his nomination.
One thousand delegates were sent from
Cleveland by this money influence to
crowd through the nomination Of the
railroad pet. The rail roads have been
growing immensely rich ever since the
war commenced and would doubtless
prefer that it would continue ten or
twenty years. The nomination Of Brough
is right in the hands of those who are
making themselves rich, at the cost OIL
treasure, blood and life Of tho honest
hard working people.

OBITUARY.

DIED-0n the 1lth day Of June, 1868, in
New ComerstOwn, Tus. Co.. o., after linger-
ing and painful illness, Mrs, Macy E. PECK,
aged 20 years and 9 months.
Mary was the only child of John W., ESQ.,,
and Eleanor NJ. Rodney. She was endowed
with more than ordinary intellectual powers !;
and through the energy and interest Of doting
parents she was afforded the means Of liber-
al education. To these she added gentle,
generous and genial spirit, which endeared her
to her numerous friends, and made her the
light and admiration of the circles in which
she moved She was married to Mr.. John
P. Peck, 0ct Sd, 1861. and with him removed
to Orange, Coshocton Co. O., but being over
taken by lingering and fatal malady, she re-
turned to die in her fathers house.
That one so young, SO highly gifted, 80 full
of promise, should fall by the hand of death is
a matter of deep regret to ALI but especially
is it deeply affecting to those bound to her by
the most intimate and endearing relations. =
Shall we say to those stricken ones, dry your
ters, and sorrow not? No, 'twere worse thar
mockery. The wounded spirit seeks and finds
relief in the gushing, briney tear. But they
sorrow not as those without hope. At an ear
ly period in the history Of her disease, she fell
the necessity of q preparation for her ap-
preaching change, and for higher and holiei
sphere. She sought and obtained pardon ant
salvation through Jesus Christ. She received
The sacrament and was admitted to the fellow
ship Of the EvsnSelical Lutheran Church
March 1st, 1868. She,sOre her afictiOn will
Christian fortitnde, patience and Resignation
testifying throughout that while thers wal
much for which she might desire to live, it wa
far better for her to depart and be with Christ
As in life che recognised the obligations Of re
ligion, so in death she demonstrated its super
lavive excellence and power. Like the peace
full decline Of an ocean sun, she sank in tn
darS waters Of Jordan; eerenely yet gloriousl!
triumphing in the faith and hope Of the gospel
"Let me die the death Of the righteous, an
let my last end be like hers"
The occasion was improved by Rev. A. N
Bartholomew, to large and sympathising con
gregatiOn <tem -. But one thing is needful
and Mary Hath chosen that good part whic
shall never be taken away from her.
