GALLANrRY--A young chap from 'the
bush," short time since, thought he must
show his gallantry, and take his dulcinea to
the city of notions, whittier he had never
been. As he was passing druggists he
espied some gentlemen drinking soda. So in
steps Sam with his lady, and says: Let's
have some o that are." Kish-sir-ker-
went the soda, which soon found its way into
the stomach of the beau, all full of efferves
cence as it was. Setting the glass down on
the stand, the buck turned round to his dear,

THE Jewish Talmud had these sentences

THE Jewish Talmud had these sentences
about women:
A good wife is heavens noblest gift A
housewife never allows herself to be disturbed
from her.work-even while conversinc she is
busy spinning. An old. experienced woman
in household is an ornament to it like a
pearl He who lives in an unmarried state
knows no joys, none of the blessings of a
home, and is without support. He who stands
at the death-hed of his wife feels like those
who saw the temple of Jerusalem reduced to
ashes; for the wife is the temple in which
each man finds repose and quiet, where he
rests after the labors of the day. and where
he can give expression to his feelings joyful
and mournful. God has given to woman
more ability of judging correctly than man.

On the other hand Andy Johnson, as
well as Abe. Lincoln, from whom he inher-
tied my policy did, in past times, many
things which the Democrats did not then,
and can not now, and never will, endorse
So far as the issue between Johnson and
the 'Rump' about my policy is concerned,
johnson follows Lincoln, and we support
the acts of the one and the memory of the
other. Yet Lincoln, had he lived, would
never have received the unconditional
support of the Democracy. Neither will
Johnson. johnson did good things, when
he vetoed the Freedman's Bureau and Civ
il Rights Bills. Lincoln, perhaps, would
not have done so. Therein johnson is
probably better than Lincoln. Lincoln
might not have stood the pressure of
Rump' opposition to his policy of restora-
tion. lie might have abandoned it; in
which case the Democracy would have
parted company with him, as, in a like
event, they will with johnson. We support
him Jythe job.

GEN, GEO. CROOK.

Gen. Geo. Crook has been ap-
pointed Coloneli in the U. S. Army.
We are glad to hear 1t. He de-
served it. But the Cincinnati
Gazette's attention is called to the
fact that Gen. Geo. Crook did not
sign the Army Officers call to the
Cleveland Convention. We knoeo
whereof we speak. His name was
forged. Gen. Crook does not con-
ceal his opinions that the rebels
are as disloyal as ever, and that
they ought to have been whipped
more thoroughly.-TDayton Jour
nal. ..
The publication of the above cor
rection affords us extreme pleas
ure. We entertained high opin-
ion of Gen. Crook, and were
amazed and panied when we saw
the indication that he has sold his
reputation for an office.
The infamous character OF the
Washington managers Of the John
son faction is thus made manifest.
What could be more infamous than
the practice Of forging the names
of gentlemen to documents by
which their character is damagedi

The Philadelphia COnventiOn--An-
DIV JOIInSOn--"My Policy" nc.

There is a great deal of talk, in these
days, about the aforementioned subjects.
We desire to say word about the conncc-
tion of the Democratic party with them.
Our first proposition is this:
The Democrats are not "Johnson men,
any more than they are "Pcndleton men,"
or "yallandigham men," Or "McClellan
men," or "any other mans" men.
The Democrats, as they announce In their
State platform, abide steadily with the
time-honored principles of their organiza-
tion. Men may fluctuate, the great truths
which lie at the foundation of our organ
zation never do. Men are nothing. Prin-
ciples are oil in all.
Therefore, we say Of Andy Johnson, as
Senator Allen said of Tyler-we support
him by the job SO we do Seward. So
we do Blair, and Mccullough, and General
Dix. and Senator Doolttlc, and all the rest
leaders in the Republican and Union par
ties as they have been. We support them
by the job We are not hydc-bound.
We applaud good thing when we see it,
and when we see bad thing we denouncc
it. come from where it may. Upon this
principle we applaud the Philadelphia Con-
vention. Because the friends of Johnson,
in calling that convention, have commit
red themselves to many wholesome Demo-
cratic truths; because they have put them
a., 80, onnfIi iot rt.itl, tha Radicals HvhOpn
we oppose, and with Radical doctrines
which we know to be destructive to the
Constitution of the fathers, the rights Of
the States, and the liberty and prosperity
of the people. They have taken fair and
square, and direct, and open issue with the
'Rump Congress on the one vital question
Of the day and hour-that is, the restora-
tion of the Union The 'Rump' is against
that and the call Of the Philadelphia Con-
vention is for It.; the people, the soldiers,
the patriots everywhere of all parties are
with the Convention and its callers on that
issue.
The Dem0cracy-Union-lo men, as
they ever have been from the inception of
the GOvernment-once again throw them
selves into the breach, prepared, at any
sacrifice, except of principle, to restore the
grand old federation of States to its former
condition of glory and freedom.
So long, then, as my policy as proclaimed
by Andrew johnson, means the equality of
all the States under the Constitution, and

FROM NEW ORLEANR.
Judge Abel Addresses a letter to
General Sheridan Defending
Himself.


New ORLEANS, September 1.-Judge
Abel addresses letter to General Sheri-
dan through the New Orleans Picayune,
defending himself against the charge of be-
ing dangerous man. He says in his ju-
dicial station that he knows naught but f.
deity to the State and humanity to the
unfortunate, regardless of color. If a
dangerous man, that he has been most
unsuccessful agitator. Until heassembling
of the would-be Convention on July 30,
the civil courts of the State had faithfully
administered the laws and as effectually
preserved the peace as in any city in the
Union, the disbanding of two armies and
large influx of negroes notwithstanding.
He firmly believes that not one drop of
blood would have been shed had the mill
tary been half as earnest as he in oppo-
sing the attempted usurpation. He says
since the re-establishment of civil author
ity in Louisiana, the status of Northern
men has been one Of perfect safety, and
tells Sheridan if he thinks assassination
correct, to rejoice in it, but among good
men he thinks it will not add to his repu-
tation.

EX- Governor Smith not for Civil

The following letter. from Governor
Smith, shows he repudiates the move now
being made by Brownlow and Others, now
in another civil war convention at Phila-

are for another rebellion, vote the Repub-
lican ticket. 1t is certain the leaders Of
that party are for inauguratlng acivil war,
if Democrats and Johnsonites succeed
And ifthey don't succeed, the Government
will be stolen clean away, greenbacks and
all. So, you see, the people, in that event,
are sin the middle of darn bad fix"

p TAX PAYER.TS

III aaa p TAX PAYER. q
This subject, pertaining to- the
of the county treasury,
has been before our people since
May last, with, as yet, no attempt
ed explanation of the discrepan-'
cies referred to in the above COM
nunication of Taxpayer, by those
who, of late, have had, and still
have, the control and management
Of our finances.
By-the-by, another loan of $97,-
OO.OO from the county fund, has
lately come to. light, though it is
said, by way of apology for the vio-
lation of the law, 1t is bearing an,
tere8t. The law says, however, it
is embezzlement to loan, with or
without interest. ..4
Some acts may be apologized
for, but clear violation Of the law,
even in ignorance, can not be ex-
cused; nor will the plea of ignor-
ance of the law, Or of profit to The
county, and especially Of accom-
modation in carrying out any par
tlcular transaction, be accepted in
justification of these charges.
Let the people look at the facts
through the eye of the law, and
then determine whether they will
elect men to office who have no
regard for the law; but they shall
not point to the treasury, or, if
you please, their treasurer's delin'
quencies, and say 1--WE did it."
Men from the country say, why
don't you let us know the, facts,
that we may vote intelligentlys
Now, the facts are, that at the set
tlement of the commissioners in
September, '65, there was a defal-
cation without counting an un-
paid draft) in the treasury to the
tune of 100000. The commits
sioners, we think, were deceived in
the matter-at least, one OF them
we know was intending to do what
was right, but was misled by the
representation Of the Court House
Clique. He supposed that draft
-dishonored and worthless, as it
then was,-was as good as green
backs for four thousand six 'hund-
red dollars.
AS much might be said of the
loan of S2,70O to which we have
referred, though that transaction,
we are told, is connected with the
"poor farm speculation" in which
our county officers have lately been
engaged, with loss to the county
of from three to five hundred dol
lars! But, at present, we have, no
occasion to enter into particulars /;
we wish only to call the attention
of the taxpayers of Vinton coun-
ty to the general facts, and ask
them whether they will re-elect
these men to Office who are parties
to, and cognizant of, the facts of
that September (1S65) settlement.
What can our commissioners do,
if the same auditor and treasurer
shall be reelected and again placed
in charge of the business and funds
of our county? 49,, ..
Men of Vinton County! remem-
Der, your interests are at stake
Why vote for men who have con-
verted. your treasurer's office into
"broker shop" so far, at least, as
to accommodate some of their
"pets."
Vote for men who know the law,
and will observe it, and then have
your interests secured, and the bus
mess of your county fairly and
honestly conducted.
