Meeting at Alexandsrsvide.

The Democratic meeting at Ale1sn-
dersville OH Saturday evening last was a
complete success The people fully alive
to the Importance of the issues involved
in the pending contest, turned out IN
large numbers, and the very best spirit
prevailed. The meeting was addressed
by A. Clay and G.. w. Meyer, Esqs., and
was in striking contrast with the slim
gathering addressed by Judge Boltin and
#. G.. Fox few evenings previouss at
the same place The signs of the time,
are propitious, and ifevery Democrat does
his duty at the polls. Montgomery Coun-
ty will maintain her position in the Dem

The Prospect,

Our exchanges from all parts OF the
State bring US most cheering intelligence
Of the prospects of the Democracy in the
coming election. Every where the Demo-
cratic party is alive 10 its duty, and ready
and eager for the coming contest. In ihe
mean time, the Abolition party are de-
spondent, and entertain well grounded
fears Of defeat, Their ranks are broken
and dispirited, Nothing but the neglect
of the Democrats to do 1heir duty can pre-
vent n complete anil decisive triumph
Let every Democrat do hts work prompt
ly and faithfully, and all will he well.

The STATE Treasury.

There are painful rumors afcat, at Co
lumbus, respecting the State Treasury.
What they really, amount to we cannot say.
We understand that an examination was
recently made of its affairs by citizen, un-
der official authority. We hope his report
may be made public, 1t is stated that the
State Treasurer has made forty thousand
dollars during his term of service. Whether
that was done by depositing the public
funds bearing interest with bankers, which
we believe is against law, and which the
Treasurer would not, therefore, do, or by
cotton or other speculatiops with his own
private funds, the rumor does not say. 1t
simply places him in the condition Of the
miller's pig that grew very fat, but nobody
but the miller could tell on whose corn.
The examination that was made the other
day ought to relieve the public, as well as
the Treasurer himself, of these painful ru-
mors. Let us know what it is all about

Mr. Cor rvs Meeting

o Pursuant to announcement, Mr.. VIM. M.
CORY assembled at Fifth street Market
space last evening, and shortly afterward
several of his friends got there. Arrange
ments had been made for holding the meet
ing in the market-space, but it,was finally
concluded to hold it under the shelterof the
market roof. The.wilted William and few
of the State Sovereignty ones sat on the
butchers blocks tor short time, regardless
of the grease that might attach to the seat
of their pantaloons In consequence, and
after due consultation it was decided for
fine wiIted to mount one of the blocks and
make a speech, which he die. much to the
amusement, if not to the edifcation, OF the
few who sstood round" to hear him. The
tenor OF his remarks was that the late DEM
ocratic Convention was KepuDlican Con-
yenfion slightly disguised, and that he, the
wilted william, and the auroral Aleck were
the only true disciples of Jefferson in the
United States. .-C Cincinnati Commercial. p

Goxernor Brouch is Dead!

Governor BRouGH died at mis- residence
in Cleveland yesterday. For some days,
the announcement Of his death has been
hourly looked for, SO low was he consider
ed Governor BRoUeH left this city for
Cleveland on the morning of the 2lst day
of June, since which time he has not been
in Columbus. Before that time he had
been suffering exceedingly from boils or
carbunkles. Shortly after his arrival in
Cleveland he was confined to his chamber,
and from that time forth he suffered ex-
cruciatingly. Whatever may have been
thought of Governor BRoUGH personally
or of him as a politician, it can not be
truly denied that he was man of decided
ability and executive capacity. In these
particulars he had very few superiors.

The AngIo-African's View of the
Maine Democratic Resolutions.

The Anglo African is published in the
.ity of New York. Itis publication spe-
ally devoted to the interests of the color
RI men of the United States. We repro
uce from the columns of that journal an
irtlele which makes particular reference to
nd correctly interprets the Maine resolu-
,ons on the subject of suffrage. The Su-
RENE Court Of the United States has deci-
ed that Negroes are not citizens of the
.-nited States, and the various depart
aents of the Federal Government up to
ie time that the present party came
ito power, acted on that idea. The
griter in the Anglo african knows this,
nd in this particular exhibits more INTEL
gence than its co-laborers of the Ohio
tate Journal, and sundry other Abolition
.,urnals in the State, which affect to believe
lat the Democracy of Maine have declar-
| in favor Of Negro Suffrage. We do not
now that it is any compliment to the Ne
roes to say that if some of the leading
bolition papers in Ohio were edited by
,lored men instead of the White men by
hich they are edited, they would display
greater degree of Intelligence and ability
ian they do now. a2 aaf

The Ohio Democracy and Their
~ Ticker.

The Ohio Democracy at their State Com
vention on Thursday presented splendid
ticket for support. OF its candidate for
Governor, we have given a lengthy sketch
elsewhere. i
The nominee for Lieutenant Governor,
William Lang, Is German, highly educat-
ed In both his native and in the English
languages. For several sessions he has
been member of the State Senate, and in
that capacity won for himself high repu-
tation. AS popular orator in German
and in English, he has scarce SUPERIOR
Judge Van Trump and Judge Key, the
candidates for Supreme Judge, have both
had much experience, and rank among the
ablest Judges in that State.
Mr.. Spence of Clarke county, the candi-
date for State Treasurer, has fine business
, qualifications. and perhaps In the State
better nomination, combining the requisites
Of honesty and capability, could not have
been made. -TfflT
+ The candidate for Attorney General, Mr..
Wilson, Is young lawyer of fine talent,
and is not without experience in the legal
profession, of which heis destined to be an
d, ornament.
7 Mr.. Ii. III. Barney, the nominee for School
Commissioner, was tor many years citi-
P zen of Western New York, where his tai
ents as an educationist highly appre-
ciated. Emigrating to Ohio when the State
passed her present school law, claiming to
be the model one of the nation, Mr.. Barney
was the Democratic nominee for Commis-
sioner, and was elected by a heavy majority,
and aided much by his care in putting the
law into successful operation. Asa Demo-
cratic measure, drafted, matured and
brought into operation by Democrats, 1t has
commanded much attention to the present
nominee in again aspiring to the post, and
the Convention, in giving him the nomina-
ton, give an assurance that the education
al interest Of the State. is still of prominent
Importance.
With such ticket--one of the best select
ed for years-if the Ohio Democracy are
not successful it will not be because they
have proven unworthy of the honors they
claim.-N. Y. NetcS.

.a1TI h There Honor in This ?

There are men in the South who were
confined at Camp Chase as political prison
ers at different periods during the War
Some of these men are circulating the story
in their neighborhoods that if they had had
a certain amount of money or had been
willing to pay certain amount, they could
haze bought their ,ody out. They assert that
persons with the aid Of money did secure
their release. Is it honorable to tell such
storiesp It's utterly impossible that any
man could have bought his way out. The
officers in charge were strictly ''loyalp men
not taint Of "copperheadism" about
them and they are the last men who could
be tempted into doing unworthy acts for
personal gain. It is probably true that
there may be some persons who entertain
the belief thatit would have been perfect
ly legitimate transaction, inasmuch as the
Rebels, by reason of-a participation in, or
a sympathizing with the rebellion, had for
feited their lands, tenements and moneys.
Such, however, were not the views of the
officers.

provlng Them.elyes DI.aplonI..,.

We have on hand editorials from the col
umns of the Ohio State Journal, Cincinnati
Commercial, and from other Abolition jour-
nails of as late date as March, 1861, ddUo-
eating and acceding to disunion, which we
shall take occasion to lay before our read
ers some of these days. However, in view
of the fact that the Abolition journals OF
the State are busily engaged in proving
themselves to have been disuntoniSts when
they adopted, and from year to year, reaf-
tirmed, their State Rights doctrines, it is
scarcely worth while to do so. Before the
War it was charged that they were dis
urionists; but they stoutly denied 1t; and
we had hoped there was truth in the denial.
That hope, however, has been dashed. BY
charging that the qualified State Rights
position of the Democratic party, with
which the Democrats were particular to
couple Reputation alike of Notification
and Secession, is justification of Secession
and Unreasonable" they convict themselves
with having been in heart secessionists and
with having been animated by treason
able" feelings. To every candid mind-to
every mind capable of comprehending a
truth-it must be apparent thatif a declara-
tion of State Rights, coupled with repu-
diatjon of Notification and Secession, is
REASONABLE" in its character, or is a JUS
tifcation of Secession, the fact that the Re-
publican party, from the time of its organ
ization up to the time of the breaking out
of the War, proclaimed, as the leading
tenet in their party creed, the doctrine OF
State Rights, clear, distinct and without at
taehing to it any shade of qualification that
would discountenance Modification or Sc
cession, it was, to all intents and purposes,
unreasonable" Secession-j justifying party
They would not be SO quick to charge down
to the account of the Democratic party a
sympathetic feeling with Secession for hav-
ing made a qualified declaration of State
Rights, if they had not been Nullitiers, Sc
cessionists and Disunionists, when they de-
clared for State Rights. lr5. ...ar.

II Isn't i'm the Abolition Platform.

General Cox, at Beverly, expressed HIM
self to the effect, that because the Demo-
cratic party had not adopted a resolution
in their platform extolling the Emancipa-
ton Proclamation and Contiscation Act
therefore the Democratic party should be
looked upon as a +" reasonable" party.
These are matters peculiarly Abolition, the
honor of which the Democratic party do
not wish to take to themselves. If the
South is to be plundered through the Con-
fiscation Act, let that plundering be done
by the Abolitionists. The Democrats do
not propose to 60 into stealing operation.
They seek the control of the Government
for the purpose of cementing the bonds of
Union, and to restore integrity and strict
accountability in all the departments Of
Government. That's their object. But why
did not the Abolition party, in their Plat
form, extol these measures? What is the
use Of General Cox going over the country
snfveling about the Democratic party's re-
fusal to do what his own party failed to do?
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1865-08-30

The way the men talk, who but lately
were nullifers, the inference is deducible
that they hold to the opinion that Ohio as
State has no rights whatever; and that it is
unreasonable, talk to say that she has. If
she has no rights as State, wherefore keep
up State Legislature and undertake to
legislate with aview that the rights and In
terests Of the people of the State shall not
be interfered with? Why not let the Fed
era1 Government do all this sort of busi-
ness?
