DEATH OF JOHN BROUGH.

A brief telegram from Cleveland, pub
lished in the REPUBLICAN of last evening,
brought to this community the sorrowful in
telligence Of the death of one of our most
earnest and eminent patriOts-JOHN BRoUGH,
Governor of Ohio.
Mr.. BRoUGH was born in Marietta, Ohio,
In 1871, studied law, and became n journalist,
editing the Eagle, Democratic paper, pub
lished in Lancaster, Ohio, in 1886 and 1887,
and in lS4O the Enquirer, then the leading
Democratic paper Of Ohio, in Columbus. His
first Office was that of Clerk of the State
Senate, in 1888. In 1910 he became State
Auditor, n position in which he greatly dis
tinguished himself. In lS49 he became
President of the Madison and indianapolis
Railroad, and from that time until his death
he was identified with the railway system of
the State as one Of its most influential and
capable managers. But it was not until the
sound of war broke upon the land that JOHN
BRoUGH's greatness and nObleness of charac-
ter loomed up prominently before the whole
American people From that day in April,
1861, when treason lifted its red hand
against the nation, he was among those who
were known as War Democrats. And when
the people of Ohio were casting about for
one who, representing them, should most
completely give expression to their utter de-
testation Of disloyalty and treason, as exem-
plihed by the Copperheads with CLEMENT
VALLANDiGHAN, their choice at once, appro-
priately and to the great satisfaction Of the
whole country, fell upon JoHS BRoUGH. And
the result, in the canvass, and in the two
years of his administration which have fol.
lowed, has fur more than vindicated the
wisdom Of the selection. In the roll of loval
Governors, whose efforts contributed 50 much
TO carry the country safely and triumphantly
through the red sea Of war and blood no
name will occupy higher place than that of
JoHN BRoUGH. His death is great loss to
his State and to the country. Ills memory
will be embalmed In the hearts of loyal
people.

Civil GOvERNMgNr Ar PnrrRsnunG.-Th

Petersburg (Virginia) Express contains the
following paragraph relative to the restora-

1T is understood that Major General Glib
bon desires that the city of Petersburg should
be turned over to the absolute and uninter-
rupted control of the civil authorities. In an
interview with the Mayor and several prom
inent members Of the Common Council, on
Saturday afternoon, he so expressed himself,
and distinctly announced that, unless the
civil authorities assumed the government Of
the city, the military would most assuredly
do so. To this end the General suggested
that the Council proceed at once to the organ
ization of police force, and not postpone the
matter later than the first of the month, when
the regular meeting takes place "

Political.

A telegram to the Cincinnati Gd:stts
dated Lexington, August 26, affirms that
NEALE is defeated for Treasurer by 2, 200
votes But as GASARD, who is elected, has
since died, Gov. BEAMLErrE, It Ia said, will
appoint Capt NEALE to the place.
ALL accounts from Ohio agree that the
mass meetings in the reserve addressed by
General Cox have been enormous and that the
spirit of the Brough campaign is exceeded.
The Union ticket will sweep the State by
enormous majOritiss.
Hon. HORACE MARSARD recently made O
speech ut Greenville, Tennessee. In relation
to the question of negro suffrage, he said
everything was prematuTe-we were not in
condition to settle, or even debate, the
question US to whether the negro was to have
the right to exercise the elective franchise.
This was n matter with which the Federal
Government had nothing to do, and so far
as the State governments were concerned,
they were not in condition to determine
the qualification of the voter at least until
their relations to the Government of the
United States, as member of the Federal
Union, was recognized
A CITIZEN at Jackson publishes in paper
of that city an article on the negro question,
in which he says that there will be two par
ties in the coming State convention--one n
free State party, and the other pro.slavery
party. The object of the latter is to hold on
to the institution until decision of the Su.
premc Court can be had on the constitution.

Why don't he get up party to "hold on to

will decide that was constitutional.

The Richmond Repm6iie says that the
Hon. M. i. CONWAY, of that city, in u letter
to Senator DOOLITTLE, argues in favor Of the
Presidents policy of reconstruction, so fal
as it has been developed. That the State'
lately in rebellion, military conflict having
ceased, are, TO all intents, IN the Union, and
are on an equal footing with the other States,
with the same duties TO perform and the samC
powers to exercise. Touching tho now en-
crossing question of negro suffrage, he holds
that the Presidents proceedings and declared
opinions are in accordance with the rule Of
law. The President is believed to approve
of comforting suffrage on the negro, though
fearing that it would increase rather than
diminish the political power Of the former
shareholders, who were mainly responsible fol
the rebellion; but opposes this being done
by Congress, suffrage being, unquestion ably,
a State institution.

BEAUrIFUL.-The Zodiacal light which Il
visible every evening now after dusk, is about
as brilliant as it ever Is. This phenomenon
is supposed to be caused by the rays Of the
sun shining through a ring similar to that
which encircles the planet Saturn and which
Is said to encrole the earth. 1t shines uI
from the track of the setting sun In tho form
of n pyramidi and is best seen or is more
plainly visible when this ring is directly be-
tween the sun and the earth. 1t may be
seen in the early morning as distinctly as al
night. Lieut. Perry, in his Japan expedi.
ton, took out an astronomer, (whose name
does not occur to us at this moment,) who
mentions that in those seas, about midnight,
when the skies were perfectly clear, this
light was so plain and distinct, that he has
seen the points of each, that from the rising,
as well ab that Of the setting sun, almost
meet at the zenith. 1t has been held by
some that the wet and rainy seasons, which
We somtimes have, are caused by the ring
above mentioned coming between the sun
and the earth. The brightness of the ZOdi.
acaI light at this time may indicate that this
Is the cause now, and II so, that may account
for the quantity Of rain which has fallen this

A Nashville letter of the 23d instant to

In some portions Of East Tennessee the

upon evil.doers out of the hands Of the law,
and become the ministers Of vengeance for
the wrongs which they have suffered, but
those who are subjects Of that vengeance
have little cause to complain. They are but
reaping the harvest Of dragons teeth which
they have sOwn.
The conduct, too, Of many Of the rebels is
we'll calculated to provoke the treatment
which they are receiving Instead Of a man

the supremacy Of the laws, there Is in too
many instances too plain an indication Of
smothered hostility and ungracious submis-
sion. They have not yet learned to forego
their arrogant assumption Of superiority over
| the Union men, nor laid aside their insinua-
tions of the want of manlinoss and honor on
the part of those who have adhered to the
national cause. Perhaps the discipline they

They have so long arrogated to themselves
the right to set the law ut defiance, that it
may be necessary that they should, ito some
extent, be denied its protection. They may
thus learn something Of its value and be
taught to appreciate its blessings.
An important movement, the details Of
which are as yet contraband, will soon dissi-
pate the delusion under which so many rebels
are laboring, that a military parole gives
them immunity for crimes heretofore commit
ted against the civil laws. A great many
have seemed to suppose that by surrcndering
themselves and being paroled they met the
demands of the law in regard to the long array
of offences which stood charged against them.
Events now promise that they will speedily
be undeceived. A timely change Of locality
is the only thing which can save them from
the punishment due to their transgressions.

DELIGHTS OF SPANISH ROYALTY.-Therei is
a strange rumor regarding the journey of the
King of Spain to Madrid to sec his dying
father, which is reported by the NOveiadeS.
II Is said that he was watched as if he had
been a prisoner, that telegraphic orders were
sent to all the towns through which ho passed
to keep careful eye on his movements, and
that police agents were sent with the special
train which conveyed him. These reports
may be utterly untrue, but that they should
obtain even moments credence is proof
how dangerous is the present position of roy.
atty in Spain. Nothing would give greater
pleasure to many Of the financial notabilities
here than a revolution in Spain, which some
Of them imagine might save them from the
result Of their spsculatiOns in Spanish rail.
