Republication.

Are the democracy for repudiating
the national Indebtedness ? This is the
serious question in view of the utter
ances of many Of their leading men on
the stump and in the newspapers. A
day or two before the close of the Ohio
Convention, Gen. Morgan, the candi-
date Of the Democracy for Governor,
spoke as follows:
Our country was in death struggle
She required money. Without money
the Government must perish and the
Union be destroyed. The moneY-lend-
er came and said: "Uncle Sam, / see
that you will die unless lend YOU
some money; but, Uncle, won't let
you have the money unless for every
$50 in gold that lend you, You will
give me your bond for 500, and agree
to pay me per cent interest on the
whole amount in gold. And that Is not
al, Uncle, but you must agree that
your children shall pay my tnxes and
my children's taxes forever.'' We'll,
Uncle Sam, rather than die, makes the
contract. IAtRE SOtI, citizens, that Sueh
contract should bud Uncle SANS

With one of our exchanges we ask,
II the foregoing does not mean repudi-
alton, what does It mean?

Our Union friends over in Belmont
county, Ohio, seem to have fnr exceed
ed their most sanguine expectations ON
Tuesday. or course we have not as
yet the official returns, but enough is
known to assure us that the county has
elected the Union ticket. At the Presi-
dental election the Democrats had n
majority OF sol, so that their losses
have been heavy indeed. The Union
victory Is the resultOf work. We com-
mend this example MS to what can be
done by earnest, live men, to our Union
people in this county. Surely now that
Belmont county has been redeemed the
result will not be doubtful ON this side
of tho river.

THE State of Virginia votes to-day for
members of Congress, members of the
Legislature, and county officers. Near
ly every candidate who could not take
the congressional oath has withdrawn
from the canvass Alex. II. H. Stuart
is the only one. We believe, who still
holds on, about whose eligibility there
is u doubt. John Minor Botts has been
nominated and we presume will be
voted for, in two or three districts.
venCities clamored forand the
birth place OF Homer after he had be-
come sometha had refus-
ed him bread. So it is with Mr.. Bolts.
None Of the Virginia districts claim
ed him when in prison for his
Union principles. None OF them
claimed him when an exile, on
palrole, on his farm in Culpepper.-
But now that his influence is all par
amount, many districts would be
proud TO have him become their candi-
date for Congress. We wish every
Virginia district could elect such a
man, since they cannot all elect Mr..

The Union men OF washington coun-
ty, Pa, and especially of Washington
borough, deserve our admiration for
the result they achieved ON Tuesday.
The borough gave Mcclellan 40 OF n
majority, now 1t stands n tie, showing
a heavy per cent. of loss for the democ-
racy. Tho county only gave Mr.. Lin
colin one hundred and six majority; now
1t gives five hundred majority for the
UnfnnstielSet- Our neighbors on either
side OF us on Tuesday did we'll. They
set us a-sample OF what can be done
when once We determine to warm up
to the work. Have we warmed up to
1t here In Wheeling and Ohio county,
Only two weeks remain. Let us not be
behind our neighbOrs.

- public necessity for some compete

Thurlow Weed penned a little para
graph the other day somewhat similar
to the above, and brim full of point
and truth. Speaking Of the two plat
forms in New York State, republican
and democrat, which are almost SINH
lar, he said:
The democratic platform has my APP
prOVal. Its bold declaration in favor
OF sustaining the national credit Is es-
peciRlly cOmmendable. Its loyalty
would hive been n priceless and pre-
ctous boon when our government and
nation wore in danger. Then we would
have given anything and all things for
such patriotic utteFaneeS. But when
they were needed, and when they
would have saved thousands of lives
and millions Of treasure, they were re-
fused,

the war. has no notion of going back on
its sentiments expressed during the
struggle. It avows its determination to
be consistent, let other Democratic pa
pers do or say what they will. We
quote from II rs follows:

Of tho Democratic press, and to the pub-
