Abolition Journals are trying to get out
Of the unenyiable position into which the
Abolition Convention got the party by
thanking DENNIsoN, TOP and BRoUGH by
name and calling for the thanks Of the peo1'
ple outside of the State for what they had
done in putting down the Rebellion, while
they did not pay TO Generals GRANT SHER-
MAN and SHERIDAN the compliment of
thanking them by name for, the services
tbev have rendered in putting the Rebel
Hon down. They allege that thisresolution
contains ample and complete thanks to
these Generals: s9'ef9 9sl i1i
,ssTbat the thanks of Ohio andiof this ma.
tipn are due to the heroic men OF our army
ard navy whose labors and sufferings have
saved the Republic. We honor our mar
tyred dead, and joyfully welcome to their
homes our returning veterans" p PIN.
3tf this resolution covered the whole
ground. the Ath resolution was sufficiently
comprehensive to embrace DENNIsoS, Ton
and BRouGH, without naming them. The
4th resolution reads: 4 "p' & ..'2 ,}
saThat the ,thanksIof this Convention are
due and are hereby rendered to the loyal
men and ,oomen of Ohio at home who have
SO nobly and literally sustained and cheered
our brave soldiers in the field, in their try
ing efforts to maintain the national authori-
ty. in conflict with armed rebellion" ,.,,,
There is no use for tho Abolition press to
undertake to write themselves out of the
dificulty. They can't do it. Stupid to an
objectionable degree must be that politician
who fails to discover in the omission of the
Abolition Convention to thank Generals
GRANT, SHERMAN and SHERIDAN by name,
studied discourtesy to General SHERMAN.
Doubtless, had not Senator SHERMAN given
1t as his opinion the night before the Conf
vention, that General SHERMAN would sup
port General Cox, for Governor, the Con-
vention would by name have thanked Cen
erals GRANT and SHERIDAN, and would have
omitted to thank by name General SHER-
MAN. The whole matter resolves itself into
this question: Did DENNIsoN, ToD and
BRoUeH do more toward the suppression OF
the Rebellion than Generals GRANT, SHER-
MAN and SHERIDAN, that they had to be
thanked by name? "a

Mortality Among the Negro Race
Il % hats9 jco SOmth.3 yIfi nj sAW
z On The subject of the mortality of the
Negro Race in the Southern States, The
.Ne,o York Herald says: rsisfdl t1;, ~.
1t Is, according to the best data to be OBJ
tained, safe to state that ofthe four millions
OF blacks In the South in 1860 not over three
millions are now alive. The census of 1870
will undoubtedly present an astonishing
result in regard to this unfortunate race.
The mortality from all accounts Is ipcreas-
ing. The negro in the South Is noted for
great inattentiop to all the necessary pre-
cautions for health. The master, interested
in him as property, always watched him
with great care, often warded of disease
and cured severe attacks by bringing to his
aid medical skill. But the negro thrown
upon his own resources becomes negligent,
careless about his habits, and drOops and
dies, ioftentimes without any apparent
cause. Such, at least, is the testimony OF
Southern planters, ard such are the con-
,clusions to be derived from the official data
in the departments at Washington which
J have accumulated since the commencement
2 of the war. These facts are so overwhelm-
: ing that they have led many OF our public
men to the conclusion that In less than q
century the colored race will be no more
numerous in this country than the, Indians
, are Mt present. From all accounts the ne
gro bids fair to disappear with greater ra-
pidity than the Indian, ever did,. Facts are
stubborn things, and we commend this view
Of the negro to the Abolitionists Of the
North. -----tss,

i.would not Dishonor Him /.

We do not suppose that The Cleveland
Leader intends to misrepresent THE STATES
MAN; but it certainly does so when 1t says
The STATESMAN is '.laboring zealopsly to
produce the impression that General SHER-
MAN will be candidate for nomination to
the Office Of Governor before the Democratic
State Convention, THE STATESMAN has
not encouraged such an idea at all. Gen.
efal SHERMAN has given utterance to views
touching the reorganization" policy that
are In perfect agreement with the views en-
tertained by the Democratic party on that
subject, and The STATESMAN has congratu-
lated its readers on that fact, just as 1t
would congratulate It's readers II The Leader
should give titterance to such views. 1t
4would, not, however, dishonor General
,SHERMAN II he should be elected Governor
by the, Democratic party. When his hard
earned fame was attempted to be tarnished
by the Abolitionists at the bidding Of
STANTON, the Democrats, without prompt
ing from any quarter, rallied in solid col
.umn TO his defense, and to-day his reputa-
''tion is acknowledged to be without
blot or blemish-so bright is it that they
who sought to disgrace him are circulating
the story that be will support the Aboli-
ton candidate for Governor. Did the Demo-
Gratis do him dishonor when they defended
him against the assaults Of the Abolition
lists, which were more 'cowardly than any
that ware made upoh him by the Rebels?
