rnI. Crrns N. Allen.


Il viii be seen by the proceedings Of
the County Union Convention that Col.
Cyrus NJ. Allen, of Knox county, was
made the choice Of the Convention for
Congress.
Col. Allen has earned this distinction
BY faithfzl service in the Anti-Slagery
ranks, for " lol these many years" he
was delegate to Chicago from this Dis.
trict, and took prominent part in pro-
curing the nomination of Abraham Lin.
coin. In the canvass which ensued he
was very active in working for the ticket.
He was also chosen one of the dele
gates to Baltimore, and of course sus-
tanned "0ld Abe" vigorously for another
term, and was selected as one of the
committee to inform him Of his nomina-
tioa.
As member Of the General Assem-
bly, Of Indiana in 1872, and as Speak
er Of that body. be welded his influence
on behalf Of bis country which had been
assailsd by traitors He did bis full
share in sustaining the Government in
those memorable times, and has since,
by iosgue, pen, aud purse, sought to up.
hold the loyal cause.
Col Allen resides in Vincsnnes, the
home of Mr.. Niblack. the Democratic y
nominee for Congress. He knows Mr.
n. like a book, and if nominated nexi
Wednesday will take especial pleasure
in exposing that gentlemsh's political
principles, for which work he is well
qualified.
Col. Allen is, IN one respect, like Gen
Grant: be has a great amount Of bull
dog determination in his nature. II hs
gets hold of Copperhead, he doel
not let him 60 until he Hnbduel
him. He Is full of grit and perseysr
anee. Moreover, he Is well posted il
public affairs, good lawyer, and con
vineing speaker, and is blessed will
great DO dly vigor, which will insure {
well-contested canvass
We hope to see Col. Allen nominated
on Wednesday, as he merits the honor
aud If elected will make the First Dis
trict one Of the best Representatives i
/ ever had
