The Senatorial Convention.

The Democratic Senatorial Convention,
composed of delegates from Richland and
Ashland counties, met at Ashland on Thursday
last. After organization, upon motion, Hon.
T. j. Kenny was nominated by reclamation.
This is a deserved tribute to the worth and
integrity of Mr.. Kenny. His constant, able
and straight forward course in the Senate du-
ring the last two years SO well satisfied his
constituents of both counties, that, upon his
consent to again become a candidate, there
was no thought of opposition. That he will
be t~riumphantly reelected, there is nc doubt.

RETURNED FROM THE WAR.

A reverend chaplain in the army from one
ofths Western States, announced to his FAM
lily and friends, about a year since, that he
wanted the war TO continue until he obtained
a sufficient pile to buy q good farm, and then
he didn't care a damn holo soon it closed. We
learn that he has returned from his pious
and "lcyaI' labors in the army, having made
the "pile" and bought a farm out West. To
raise it so quick, looks very much as if he
have had a hand in the contracting or
Quartermasters department. What holy and
s'loyaP' men some of these Reverends are |! e

At Grange there was considerable trouble
and excitement and two or three disunion alb

calling Democrats traitors. Others left town
in 2-40 style to save their cowardly carcasses
from a similar dressing. We have heard of no
disturbances at the other places.

TheIEnOrmOus Expense of the New
Swarm of Omce.HO1ders!

The Democracy wanted the State of Ohio
to collect its portion of the National Tax, by
ats otn officers, instead of having a swarm of
NEW OFFICERS fastened upon the people.
The National Revenue could have been col
lected at least at one-third less expense by
our State officials than it will be by the Ma
tional Administration. Why was it not done ?
The reason is that a hungry swarm cf office
seekers had to be provided for
The State pays its Township Assessors 81 so
per day the National Government So, 90 per
day The enumeration of the Militia, &C.,
could have been easily taken by the State Az
SCISSORS as not, but the National Assessors had
to have work. So the EXPENSE WAS
TREBLED with no just cause.
The People can see that there is a needless
waste of money somewhere, and that a good
deal of their hard earned substance is going
into the pockets of Lincoln's swarm oe Office
holdersi '&
Will the People not rise in their strength,
at the ballot box, and DEMAND A CHANGE
OF POLICY ? sisA' .afas So
One of our Democratic exchanges comment
ing on the Draft and its policy, says: alt re-
quires about 10000 men to make the present
draft all over the conntry-enrolling officers,
assistants, boards of examination, &C., and go
on. These cost the Government, in salaries,
about eight times this amount paid to soldiers.
Multiply 10000 by 8 and we have 24O,OO
or, in other words, the means to pay 240,-
900 common soldiers, as long as the army of
enrolling and drafting officers, with their as
sistants, are continued in Office. In addition
to this expense in carrying on the draft, the
Provost Marshals have "'guards", and more
than so, 900 "Invalid Soldiers" are distributed
over the country to aid in enforcing the draft
Most of these are able bodied soldiers, fit for
duty in the field. It is evident that the cost
of the draft, with the Provost Guards, is equal
to the pay Of an army of 300, 900 men through
the present year, at least. Indeed, the SOL
diers distributed through the free States ex-
eel in number, We believe, the whole force the
Cover nment will raise by the draft. The pol
icy of the draft does not appear to be a re-
markably one, when we consider its cost, and
the number of soldiers withdrawn from the
army to enforce it.
