wHAr II Would Do.--The Statesman says;
"In 1916, the announcement Of Peace electri-
Gtd the whole country and the people attes-
tod their joy in every conceivable way Of jOl
lifca,ion, They did not stop to ask whether
the Peace was strictly bonorabie--or whether
we had secured all we demanded as strictly
and clearly our right. 1t was sufficient for
them to know that Peace had been secured.
Let Peace be restored tomorrow, and let the
telegraph, With electric speed, communicate
that fact alone TO ,dl parts Of the country and
a hurricane Of JOY will straightway sweep over
the whole country, before which the man who
should question whether it was an honorable
Peace-that is, whether It had been made up.

Blessed are be Peace makers would fervent

THE EMPIRR The Democracy Of Dayton
and Of Montgomery county deserve far bet
ter paper than they have had for some time
past The Empire ought to have new type,
a thoroughly and carefully organized locaI
and business department, and much more
careful supervision Of the general editorial
columns No one Of our readers feels this 40
keenly as we do. We had hoped some weeks
ago, that an arrangement was made which
would enable us to effect some, at least, Of these
improvements In this, however, we have
thus far been disappointed. We hope that a
change for the better will in some manner be
made before long We are very weary ofthe
present mode of conduct

BOLD BURGLARY, We learn that car on
the B5oad Guage was entered last night and
quite an amount Of property stolen, including
a coat Of the conductor, also a coat OF the
baggage master, dinner buckets, and whatever
else the thieves found moveable which they
could lay hands on. The thieves probably
intend to start an opposition road TO the G. W
and are providing car furniiurf, &c, in ad-
vance.

southwest Of Alexandra, on yesterday, while

husband was taken hack to Richmond under
arrest The former says that threats of arrest
and confinement in Richmond caused them to
fee North.
Tho Republican has rather strange para
graph which says that fears are entertained
that Jeif Davis may deal heavily with Foots
On this point we are glad TO hear that the
Government has taken steps TO prevent any
ipiury being done the eX-member Of The Uni
ted States Senate Should JEFF Davis be so
rash az to take the life of Foote, we have not
a doubt that the act will cost the highest rebel
official 10 our custody his life.

peace. ana what would Come

Of 10.
Il is difficult to realize the blessings
which would flow to the American peo-
llo, il they could once more enjoy Peace
aud Reunion Of the States. We can new
ct have such Government as we had be-
fore the war begun--a Government whose
exaciions were not feelt by the people.
We are encountered by debt 80 vast a.
to foiJid the hope Of payment. TO meet
the annual interest on this vast SUN will
reqiire oppressive taxation so long as the
Government shall endure. We can Rev-
er again have the equal distribution OF
pro- erty, which made the American peo-
pie happier and more prosperous than
those Of any other country The inevita-
bic tendency Of the new state Of things
upon which we are entering, will be to
aggregate wealth in a comparatively few
hands, making aiistocratie distinctions
among classes, and leaving the masses
poor, We shall have far less money to
expend for State and local improve
ments, as the taxes required by the Fed
eral Government will leave little surplus
FOR any purpose that is not absolutely ne
cessary. But, IL the war "ere ended, its
enormous expenditures would cease to
augment the National Debt Hundreds of
thousands Of men would be returned to
productive pursuits, aud assist in bearing
the bu ri cu taxation. The minds OF
men, relieved from the exoetions which
the war makes upon the attention of ALL
would be TUNED once more to the interests
OF peaceful life. Thus we would stsrt up
on new career, If not of such marvellous
as that which preceded the war,
still with all the elements Of great and
powerful nation. But this is not all.
Parents wodld no longer be called to
weep for sons slain in battle, OF dying in
the hospital Many family now sepa-
rated would be reunited Many hearth,
now cold, and many a scantly-spread ta-
ble, would regain, with the return of the
husband and father, the lost comfort and
abundance of other days. The terrible
dread Of the CONSUMPTION, the repeated and
ruinous sums which almost every family
are compelled to contribute to pay boun-
ties and hire substitutes, would cease from
the instant that peace is concluded
We believe that nine-tenths of the
whole people desire peace as ardently as
we do. Let them make known their de-
size to those in whose hands the issues oi
war and peace abide.
