Tho Time, Of vcdncs,ov has an article

Tho Times Of WEDNESDAY has an article
complaining that the present great epoch OF
our history has produced no great men, as
other such times have. that there Is q
" dreary want Of men in the government, -
though " there arc weak women, and obSti-
nate jaokessps ond greedy cormorants
enough :" that TIC President Is q good easy
man governed by events and al do not agree
whether be has lie courage and sagaeity to
shape them; that - bis cabinet Is q motley
crew. Montgomery Blair being dcepos; in
his couGdence, vho '' has q brother"
While We DO not hold to iudiscrimina,e
ard blind praise OF all the acts Of the Ad-
ministutiou because they are those Of the
ruling power, we have vet to sec the man
who in oar opinion eoeld have conducted
himself n the Presidential chair for the past
three y,ars with more sagaeity and honesty
OF purpose than MIR Lincoln, OF the man
who having seuhd upon policy would have
shown more eJumgc in carrying it out.
Many woaii have been glad to have the
President as pigbeaded and determined to
shaTe events at all costs as themselves. u
is fortunate for the country that be has had
more wisdom.

MONSIEUR MOWER. R.-1he little puff VIZ
gave Monsieur Mower last week made hin
very angry. He said nothing to us, but h,
said very many hard things behind our back
and threatened to visit us with dire ven
geancc. Dogs that bark at a respectful dis
tancc are generally harmless.
Mower, we are told, denies having usec
the language we attributed to him; but this
he need not do. We dare him to come ou
over his proper signature and deny it. w,
will risk prosecutions, and we have littl,
fear of him preaching us to that uncomfort
ably warm country we read about.
He cannot truthfully charge us with quar-
relling with clergymen. We have no harm
to say of them so longs as they attend to theil
preaching and let politicians alone. We
have never had occasion for controversy
with Reverends GIBSON, FRAME or AMBER
SON, because they attend to their calling
and leave politicians to attend to politics.
But Mower, forgetful of the lessons of reli-
gion, breaches the glorifcation of niggers
and the condemnation of "Copperheads. :"
This he has right to do as an abolition
lecturer; but he has no right to do it as a
minister of the gospel.
We would not abridge the liberty of
speech; but we are told "there is time
for all things and we are inclined to the
belief there is n place for all things. In
club-rooms, hotels and shops and on the pub
lie highway, are proper places to discuss
politics; but we would question the propri-
ETY. Of ministers preaching in such places.
Churches are the proper places for religious
teachings and worship; but how disgusting
it is to have them turned into abolition lee
ture rooms. The men who thus prostitute
the churches bring reproach upon religion
if they have influence enough; or, if lack
ing in influence, they render themselves an
object of jest and become laughing stock
for community
Mower says we have told twenty-five lies
ON him. Now, Mower, if that be the case,
why don't you come to us like man and
ask us to correct instead of sneaking around
like back biting old maid telling it where
you suppose it will not reach our ears p
You talk friendly to our facc-have never
word of complaint to make; but in our alb
scncc you give us particular HI. You
know, Mower, that we have never said any
thing but the truth of you, and you know,
too, there arc more than twenty-five truths
we have never told that would make you ap-
pear more ridiculous than anything we have
yet said of you.
You need not cry for us to hold on so long
as you persist in preaching politics instead
of religion. When you desecratc the house
of God with your vile abolition slang and
make hellish fcasts of good Democrats
names you may expect us to apply the rod
of correction. We will treat you just as we
would any other abolition lecturer or thco-
logical quack, and if you don like it all you
have to do is to go at some honest calling,
and in it it will afford us much more pleasure
to render you assistance than it does to un-
mask the hypocrisy and wickedness of your
present conduct.

THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE. We desire
TO make a suggestion 10 the Democratic
county convention which meets on Monday
next. Aud that suggestion is in reference
to the Central Committee. The duty octLe
Central Committee consists in part. of ex
ercising general supervision over political
campaigns, appointing and making arrange
inents for meetings, procuring speakers for
all meetings, procuring and distributing
handbills, tickets, calling conventions, &c.
Hence the necessity of frequent meetings of
the committee. 1t should meet at least
once week during Presidential campaign.
and majority of the members should be so
located that they can be got together at any
time on an hours notice. The committee
should be composed of the most active men
Of the party--thosc who are willing to spend
time and money for party success and sub
init without murmur to occasional growls
and curses.
For several years the Committee has been
SO scattered over the county that meetings
were necessarily very rare, and the duties of
the committee were discharged by outsiders.
The committee has generally been compos-
ed OF good and efficient men, but they were
so located that it was impossible for them to
properly discharge their duties.
We blame no one for any bad intent in
this matter. The difficulty has arisen from
the neglect of the county conventions to
properly weigh the responsibilities and du-
ties resting upon a central committee. And
we call attention to it now with the hope
that our next county convention will ap-
point such men on the committe as will CON
duct the very important campaign upon
which we are entering with the most deci-
ded yigor.

BrOugh Dismisses a German
Company ''ln Disgrace !''---
"COnciliating the German Ell
nent,',
from the Ohio Statesman. !

lfrom the ONO Statesman.
The Company of National Guards, dis
missed IN disgrace! by Adjutant General
Cowen, by order of Governor Brough, is
from Brown county, and its members arc
Germans. They arc abused and stigmati
zed in the official order dismissing them
for no other offense than refusing to enlisj
in the United States service. They knew
their rights under the laws of Ohio, anC
were not prepared to go out of the State al
this time. Many of them have families al
home who are entirely dependent upon theil
daily toll; many farms would have been left
without tlllers Of the SOIL as is the case all
over the State Yet, official insoence seeks
to disgrace and dishonor them by Especial
order, for refusing to obey a command OF
Governor Brough's that he had no right to
give.
No wonder that Gen. Louden, of Brown,
plead so hard, in the Abolition State Con-
vention, for something 'to conciliate the
German element" He knew very well that
a large proportion of this very company
had voted for Brough last year and he
knew also that the Germans all over the
State and throughout the nation, had be-
come most thoroughly disgusted with Re-
publican Governors and the Administration
at Washington. Hence, he wanted to con
ciliate them; but he will find that it will re-
quire something more to do this than the
nomination of renegade for Presidential
elector, John p. Benin may have been
able hitherto to operate as township poll
tician in and about Ripley, with fair results;
but he will find that he has a big contract
on his hands, now that he is expected ''to
conciliate the German element especial
ly, in view of such official action as the dis
missal 'in disgracer of this German Com
pany from his own county, where he was
to begin his missionary work!

THE Snow FLAKE. The poets and wri
ters of romance often refer to the snow flake
as an emblem of purity. We never see the
snow fake folling gently to the ground, but
we think of De Land & Co. S Chemical Sal

biscuit nearly as light 1t is counterfeited,
and spurious article is put up in green pa
pers, but the genuine comes in bright red
papers, and is sold by all good grocers.
