Something Coming!

To he Editors o., the Statesman: '-.... .giir.
When The ONO STATESMAN first intima-
ted that there was something wrong with
the State Treasury Department, and that
Mr.. G. Volney Dorsey was making money
byan illegal use of the peoples funds de-
posted with him, the virtuous individual
who edits the State Journal fell into q fear
full frenzy about it, and pronounced The
STATESMAN editors "slanderers," "calumni-
ators," '1cowards," RECKLESS maligners,"
&C., &c. Within fortnight of that time
this same Ohio State JourndL contained the
official evidence that every charge THE
STATESMAN had made was true, and this
saufe evidence was positive proof that
the eGitor of the Journal and not
the editors Of The STATESMAN, was
the calan1niator, slanderer, &c. Since this
overwhelming exposure, It has come to be
understood that whenever the Journal de-
nounces anything as false, slanderous and
calumnious, there will speedily be an ex-
posure of some new Abolition villainy.-
This days Journal contains an articlein ref
erence to another Democratic paper and the
treatment ofrebel prisoners at Camp Chase,
in almost the identical language used to de-
nounce The STATESMAN for its intimations
about the Dorsey efnbezzlement. There is
good reason to believe that this is bat the
preface to another exposure of official de-
linquency and Abolition hypocrisy. This
being the case, the people will await "fur-
ther developments" with patient interest:
and, unless the signs fail, Mr.. William IT,
Coggeshall will find his nose on the grind.
stone he has been so industriously turning
for the punishment of others. &ll7

Weed, Greeley and JohnsOn'S Cab

The Democracy. In the recent Convention
have opened the way for the final disposal of
Weed, Greeley, and all their noisy and fussy
associates. With the success Of the ticket
lust, nominated, Weed and, Greeley will
be forced into the shades Of oblivion, when
they will have nothing else, to do but to
quarrel with each other, without any per-
SON but their undertakers caring what they
may do or how they finally settle their lit
tie difficulties. With Its success, and fol-
lowing close upon the elections win come a
revolution in the Cabinet at Washington,
and clearing out of all the doubler faced,
weak -kneed and negrophobia officials who
are hanging on the departments. 1d;Zs,d,'

litical power, it follows thatit was their in
terest to have the South withdraw from the
Union, and the interest OF the Democratic
party to have her remain in the Union
This fact Of itself is the most conclusive
refutation Of the charge, that the Demo-
cratic party melted and promoted the Re-
bellion-zthe success of which would have
subordinated them politically eternally.

OOLUMbUS, Z0In JuIy, 1000.
GENTLEMEN Your letter of yesterday,
inquiring what are my opinions upon some
of he.phases ofthe question of the recon-
struction of the Union, was received this
morning. You sign yourselves as "Com-
mittee." But have omitted to inform me
what body or organization your represent,
or to give me the instructions or resolutions
committing the subject to you. This acci-
since know you both to be members of the
Union party of this State, and, though we
have scarce seen each other for some years,
have believed you to be personal friends of
mine; but my relations to the Union men
of Ohio are such that it may become of some
Importance to know who are those with
whom yon are acting and for who you de-
clare that a hearty and honest concurrence
in the principles which you and the other
loyal people OF Ohio adopted In Convention,
on the 2lst ultimo, expressly as the basis of
united political action in the coming State
election, shall not be sufficient to secure
your votes. Ll Oil, G,.-.lL e.
Political organizations, like every other,
are founded upon a mutual waving of some
articles of personal belief for the sake of Sc
curing united and effective action upon
others which are avowed as the common
creed and the bond of union can hardly be
said to be kept in good faith when indivi-
duals ofa party PROFOUND as tests to can
didate questions which werenot acted upon
by the convention, especially when such
questions were notoriously excluded from
the list of those upon which community of
belief was demanded, because the opinions
OF loyal and patriotic men had not yet full
ly ripened or taken definite form In regard
to. them, and the time had not come when,
in the "logic OF events" it was necessary to
act upon them. In the political phase of
the great conflict we have upon us, as in the
military strife which has just ended, organ
ization will be found to be Of the first i'm
portance, and though guerilla warfare has
Its attractions, am well convinced that re-

Dolson Cox will be pleased to learn that
he hss been assigned, by orders from the
War Department, to the command of the

vision of this corps in the Army of the

DR.. q. B. LIGHTHILLS first visit to
Ohio was induced by numerous applics-
tions for trestment from parties unable to
visit New York for that purpose, and who
can not be successfully treated except after
q personal examination. His practice has
been so successful that he hiss repeated his
visits 10 Cleveland several times. Still he
finds that it is almost SIS difficult for some
parties desiring his services to visit him at
Cleveland, that in compliance with the re-
quests of many citizens, he has consented,
before returning TO Europe, to visit several
central points in Northern Ohio, making
Cleveland his headquarters, SO that all who
desire can consult him.
For the past twelve years DR.. Lighthill
has paid exclusive attention to the treat
ment of deafness and catsrrh in its vari-
GUS forms. He has practiced in New York.
and other principal Eastern cities, where,
until few months past, he was associated
with his cousin, DR.. E.B. Lighthil, and, To-
gether, they have acquired standing
which has earned for the " Lighthill In

Tbs Fan or Ricnmoud in Court.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch describes a
scene in court, on the announcement of the
capture of Richmond, as follows:
While the Court of Quarter Sessions was
in the midst of the trial of case, DR.. Nc
Cook, in his Characteristic and impetuous
manner, rushed into the court room, step
ped upon the bench, and announced in an
excited and uDceremOnious manner the fall
of the rebel capital and its occupation by
our forces. The announcement Of the news
produced the widest enthusiasm, and for
some moments it seemed as if the crowds
present had lost all control Of their feelings.
As soon as order was partially restored, the
court ordered the Clerk to make minute
upon the record to the effect that upon the
receipt Of the intelligence of the fall oi
Richmond, the Court had adjourned.
