In every business or profession, indeed in every
department Of science or skill, there is always some
acknowledged hsad-some one who stands out in
bold relief among his fellows, as sort of leader.
In tho study and treatment of deafness and catarrh,
as special diseases, DIR. h. b. LIGHTHILL, OF th!s
city, occupies just the position above described;
He has devoted years of labor to this speciality And
editorial columns Of the Tribune. Of recent date,
bear witness to the Doctors success in this depart
ment Of medicine We quote the paragraph:
"CURE OF DEAF MUTE.-LoUIs LoEwINsTEIN,
lad fourteen years of age, born in Germany, came
TO this city when he was about two years old. Soon
after his arrival here he taken sick and lost his
hearing. By degrees he became first deaf and then
dumb. For nearly ten years he was mute. unable
to hear the lOudest voice, to artculate word
About one year ago he was placed by his parents in
the hands of DIR. LIGHTHILL, who has so far sue
ceeded in restoring to him his lost powers Of hear
ing and utterance that he can converse with those
who speak to him distinctly and deliberately. Dur
the tuition of MIR. BENNEckE, and has made consid-
cradle progress in reading and arithmetic"
Having been supplied with the lads address. we
further Investigated the matter, and discovered
that, previous TO calling on DR.. LIGHTHILL, the
youths case was considered hopeless and he was for
two years an inmate of the Deaf and Dumb Asy-
lum. The Rev, JOHN NoTT, ID, Professor. in
tenders his gratitude to Dr. LIGHTHLL for treating
successfully his case of deafness. Rev. FRED. b.
JEWELL, Professor of the State Normal School at
Albany, also testes to having been cured fcatarrh;
DIR. LIGHTHILL possesses other testimonials and
tributes to his talent from some of our wealthiest
and most prominent and respected citizens, which
may be seen on application. 1t would be dificult
TO speak in any but terms Of praise OF his treatment
in the face Of these many proofs and facts testify
ing to his success.

Hon. q. q. Cox.

The Democracy of the Columbus District
have again placed Hon. S. s. Cox III nom
ination for Congress. Mr.. Cox had wr T.
ten letter declining to make another race
but the Convention refused to excuse MIN.
The people of Licking county will follow
their old Congressman with great interest
through this canvass. He starts out with a
Republican majority of 5000 in 1858 to
overcome. This is mighty load, but MIR;
Cox has a strong personal hold on the good
feeling of hundreds Of Republicans in his
district who have felt the advantage OF be-
ing represented at Washington by gen
tleman who does not feel himself .prohib-
tied from doing acts of kindness for men
whose politics may differ from his own.
Whilst Representative from this district,
Mr.. Cox's popularity continued to increase
to the close of his third term, and although
now separated from us, many of our people
of both parties still feel at liberty to ask
his services on any matter OF business at
Washington, feeling sure that 1t will receive
his attention. 1t is not strange that such
man has friends outside of his party, and
we trust there may be enough of such to
secure his return to Congress.-N ewarh
AdUocate.
Brother MORGAN may be assured that the
people of Columbus and Franklin county,
and of this entire new District, are not be-
hind in recognizing their duty to their
able, faithful, and efficient Representative
in Congress.

Cox ana rscisley.

Eckley, in his speech at the Court House,
said that " 1t was gratifying to know that
there was fine prospect of extinguishing
the small luminary Of the Columbus Dis
trict, Sunset Cox, at the October election"
If Eckley was possessed OF one-tenth the
talent and common sense of Hon. S. s. Cox,
he might then, perhaps, make respectable
showing in the halls Of Congress. As 1t is,
he is scarcely known as a member except
when he draws his pay.--Steubenpille Co,v-.

GEN. George Ii. Mcclellan.

It is most astonishing fact that some of
the Lincoln papers are:charging all sorts of
incompetency and bad faith upon Gen. Nc
Clellan, while in command OF our army
Mr.. Lincoln has the power to remove from
office any or all the army officers for good
cause; and it is his sworn duty to remove
any army officer who is unfit for the Office
he holds. So soon as he discovers such un-
fitness, no matter whether 1t be want of
military skill or want of faithfulness, not
only does his oath bind him to discharge
this duty, but the lives of the brave soldiers
and the treasury of the people are at stake;
and for these reasons he is bound in good
faith to the people and soldiers to dismiss
from Office all who are unfit. Now If any
of the Infamous charges made against Gen.
Mcclellan are true, then Mr.. Lincoln has
been unfaithful to the soldiers and the peo-
pie to a criminal degree. If Mr.. Lincoln
Is not thus criminally in default of discharg-
ing his duty fearlessly and faithfully, then
all these charges are base fabrications of
demagogues unworthy the name of Ameri-
cans. If Mr.. Lincoln could have found
cause for doing so. he would long since have
taken the commission from Gen. Mcclellan !;
and the only reason why he has not done SO
is, that he could find no ground or cause on
which to do it.
Let these slanderers then answer this
question: If Gen. Mcclellan was incom-
petent or unfaithful, why did Mr.. Lincoln
not remove him from office? Why does
Mcclellan to-day hold a commission as
Major-General under Mr.. Lincoln? ~

News From Wnsl,lngton.

w ADhlNuiOHti ONPos NOs .
Mr.. Lincoln is, more than ever, actively
engaged in preparations of all Kinds to Sc
cure his reelection. He is, as before, In the
habit of visiting the departments which
compose his Administration, and of getting
the Various news and rumors which are TO
be obtained there. He sees there men from
all parts of the country, attracted thither
by political or military affairs, or by the
expectation of fat job or good office, and
he has for them all some flattering words
or some indirect promises. In this way ne
gets all the information he wants, and, more
than that, the assurance of hearty sup
port. Patronage is also used by him with
a great deal OF dexterity, and with more
than usual liberality. Any man supposed
to have the least influence Immediately re-
ceiyes a good share of it, and especially
those connected with the army, VINO are
now the special object OF MIR. Lincoln's at
tention and cajoleries.
The place where Mr.. Lincoln spends most
of his time is, however, at the Treasury
Department From that point, he directs
the cart-loads and cargoes of greenbacks
which are to do the electioneering work,
and carry conviction, zeal, and love for ms
person in the hearts of his supporters. Inc
Treasury Department Is now the great
manufacture OF public opinion, the foun-
tain from which flows, in green streams,
the arguments by which Mr.. Lincoln's cleo
ton is to be secured. During the last two
months the number of rooms where green
backs were formerly printed, has been in
creased and several hundreds of working
men and women have been added to the
usual employees. Tons of the precious
markets where liberal distribution of them
is supposed to produce the most good.
A United States Senator happening to
find Mr.. Lincoln in the midst OF pile of
greenbacks, remarked: "Is not your EX-
cellency afraid of creating panic in the
money market?" "Not in the least" said
Mr.. Lincoln. "The breach we now make
in the Indebtedness of the nation can be
easily covered up if we are elected, if not,
it will prove a bottomless bog, In which
Little Mac will naturally founder" Such
is now Mr.. Lincoln's theory in financial
matters. leave it to the attention Of the
political economists of the age.

DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL CoMMIrTEEl
Rooms, Columbus, Oct. LIST, 1854.
The pending political contest is to decide
whether all that is valuable and dear 70 you
as Citizens and Freemen, shall be preserved
and secured to yourselves and your child
rem. The election on Tuesday, the llth
of October, though confined to the choice
of State and County representatives and
officers, will necessarily have direct infiu-
ence on the Presidential issue in Novem-
Der. Members of Congress are to be
chosen, who will be required to act on the
measures and policy of administration at
Washington. Need we remind you of the
Importance of securing true and tried ex-
ponents of your opinions in that branch
of the Federal Governments Success in
this, the preliminary trial of your strength,
will fix the wavering, and inspire all with
courage, and stimulate to increased action
and effort in the great final struggle in
November. The time for argument is past
the time for action is at hand. Your oppon-
ents are vigilant, active and thoroughly Or
ganized. They are determined on success !;
they may succeed, unless you arouse to a
full apprehension of the danger. We appeal
to Democrats, and all who love the country
and its institutions, to aid in averting such
dire calamity.
Let every man, from this day forth until
the polls are closed, be anceaSiag in his efforts.
Let no man entrust to another that which he
can do himself. Individual effort and influ-
ence, combined with the action of local
committees, win bring your full strength
to the polls. Victory in October secures Vtc-
torn in Victory in November
drives LINCOLN, with his DESTRUCTIVE
POLICY and corrupt party from power, and
restores to our beloved country the bless
ings of an honorable and lasting PEACE,
with the UNION and the CONSTITUTION
of our Fathers, presided over by McCLEL-
Ian and PENDLETON. -r.-...
Democrats of Ohio we ask you to give
the second Tuesday of October to your
country. Let every business man close his
house on the day of election, and repair
early to the polls and stay there until the
last vote is deposited! Let the farmer leave
his plow, the mechanic his shop, the work.
ingman his toll; let every Democrat of ev-
cry profession and avocation give that day
to securing the triumph of the only politi-
cal party that can restore to the people
Peace, Prosperity and Union! Do not be
drawn into disputation, but maintain at all
hazards all your lawful rights. Have eff
cient challengers at every polls to see that
none but legal voters exercise the right OF
suffrage. Do not let our foes achieve vic
tory this fall as they did last, by threats, by
intimidation and by fraudulent voting
One eday's effort upon the part of every DEM

self, but failed, tor BOB ScHENCK opposed
him and LINCOLN repudiated him. Mr..
DENNY then came home and published a
broadside of his paper against LINCOLN.
He then denounced the President as weak,
vacillating, timid, stupid and perfdious.
Now DENNY publishes the Abolition organ
in Pickaway county, and in his last issue
devotes most of his editorial space and all
his ability to panegyric on Old ABE,
pitched in strain of fulsome flattery
and obsequious praise that must prove
disgusting to every white man who
reads it except LINCOLN himself. Among
other things equally atrocious, DENNY de-
clares that the war is waged for LINCOLN,
and says 1--WE could not defeat him without
condemning his policy-a policy to which
we have willingly, persistently and enthu-
siastically devoted the best life-blood and
the choicest treasures of the nation" This
parasite insists that all the blood shed in
this tremendous war has been righteous
offering to LINcoLN's policy-not the Union,
not the Constitution, not the laws, not the
right, not the flag-but LINcoLN's policy'
This shows how four years Of patronage,
money and unlimited power to bestow ia
vors will reduce man from free, manly
and independent citizen to the status of a
court parasite, sycophant and a slave.

THERE is one feature in the character of
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, revolving, dreadful
and wicked: it is simply heartlessness--a
callous, cold blooded ribald Indifference to
the sufferings of others. There is one in
cident in his career illustrating this, that
like the fddling of NERO, will stick to him
through all history, and which of itself is
sufficient to condemn him irredecmably in
the mind of every generous or humane man
or woman. 1t is that incident on the bat
tie field of Antietam, where amid the dead
and dying, the MANNED and suffering SOL
diers who fell In that great fight, LINCOLN
was seen, and heard to call upon parasite
for ribald negro song, which was sung,
and over which LINCOLN laughed and
grlmmaced as NERO doubtless did when
Rome was burning. No'2uu9g 100 80
