n~The kind of an Administrative

Hg- The kind of an Administration
we have, and which we are daily asked
by Abolitionists to support, especially
in its war policy, may be learned by
reading the ''letter from Washington"
in another column. 1t is copied from
the Cincinnati Commercial, Governor
Chase's organ. The writer takes par
ticular pains to let his readers know
that Mr.. Chase does not swear, while
every other member of the Admins
tration, including old Abe, swear in
the loudest manner. Had the letter
appeared as original in Democratic
paper, every whiffet of an abolitionist
in the country would have yelpcd
Story" ''traitor,' &c, until he would
have become hoarse. But the idea Of
freedom of Speech as defined by
abolitionism, is for an abolitionist to
write or say what he pleases, as the
letter referred to, proves; while Dem
ocrat ''must lay low and say nothing
Read the letter. 1t is u rich exposi,
tion of the manner in which the pre-.
sent Administration conducts the gov
! ernment.

Rk9~ Ex-Governor Dennison and

BW Ex-Governor Dennison and
Hon. Alfred McVeigh are announced
as the speakers for the abolition meet
ing in Cadiz on the 4th of April. Go
vernon Dennison is very social clever
gentleman. lie was Governor of Ohio
during the first year of the war. The
people have sorrowful recollection of
what kind of Governor he made.
The last official act he done while Co.
vernon, was to appoint a junior Capt.
Major of the 30th Ohio over Captain
Cunningham, of Cadiz. He has not
not yet explained to the people of Ohio
what he done with some 100000 of
contingent fund, appropriated by the
Legislature to carry on the war. May
be he will make a satisfactory explana-
ton on the 4th Of April. We hope
he will. ... ..
The other speaker, Mr.. McVeigh,
of Fairfield county, is not considered
the most brilliant man in the nation
He thinks, however, that he knows i
all, and what he don't know, it is no
worth while to learn. He has not only
a good opinion of himself, but also o
his "beard,' an article in which h
takes great pride. The Ohio Eagle
printed in the town where he lives
says he is increasing in years rapidly
He was SO in 1860, when the censu
taker was round; when the assesso
was around in 1862 he was over 45
But then he is great war man, as a
such men are.

b@ The Abolitionists Of this county

B%The Abolitionists Of this county
intend to have demonstration in Ca
diz, on Saturday, April 4, 1868. This
is right. They, with every other party,
have a right to hold just as many meet
ings as they please, and it Is no persons
business but their own. This ought to
be a free government, whether it is
one or not, and every man ought to
be permitted to express Lis political
sentiments in his own way. They
ought to have good crowd, as the
houses Of private citizens in Cadiz are
promised to be thrown open on that
day to feed the people.

AN Observation-Disclosures signing
himself as Chairman of the Union

Chairman of the Republican Central
Committee of Harrison county, not of
the Union Central Committee. But
then that is one of Lewton S deceptions,
and he fully understands that art. He
alse uses Mr.. Thomas Georges name
as Secretary to the call for the meets
ing, April 4. Mr.. George was not at
home for two weeks before the call ap-
peared in the Republican, and conse-
quently knew nothing about the meet
ing, having been in the East roplen-
ishing his stock of groceries. But
then that was only another one of

knows that he is composed of nothing
but the very meanest kind of fpolitical
deception. 4 @ 81.
