The great issue before the people is,
whether all the powers of Government
shall be concentrated in the hands of the
General Goyernment-the States being re-
duced to the condition of counties-and a
consolidated despotism be thereby estab-
lished; or, whether those rights of local
selt-government which our fathers enjoy
ed and which we inherited from them, and
without which there can be no real liberty,
no wise government, no public economy,
no light taxation, shall be preserved
A powerful faction, represented bya ma
jority in Congress, have conspired to over
throw the free and benefcent institutions
Of our fathers, and to substitute therefor an
Oligarchy of privileged classes, crushing
the mass of the people and all individual
liberty, under the weight of despotic and
unrestricted General Government. To eff
feet this object, they, in plain violation of
the Constitution, exclude eleven States
from representation in Congress, and insist
upon comforting upon negroes the right
to vote-not out Of regard to the negro,
but because they expect to be able,
with their money, to control bis vote, and
thereby perpetuate their party ascendency.
Let every man who is opposed to the
schemes of the conspirators, who cherishes
the institutions founded by our fathers,
who appreciates the necessity and benefits
of local self government, who is opposed to
seeing the great State of Ohio shorn of her
dignity and reduced to the dependent con-
dition of county, or who is opposed to
Negro Suffrage, join with the Democracy
In reseulng our country from the grasp Of
the Malignants.

news from Europe. On the continent,
the Italian advance had encounter.

severe engagement ensued, lasting
all day. The Italians attacked with
three corps, using oil their available
troops. but were defeated and com
PEELED to re.cross the Mincio. The
war bulletins OF the Italians admit q
repulse, while the official Austrian dis.
patches claim decisive victory. 1t
has been decided to call the engage,
ment the battle of Custozzi. Carl
baldi was ut Lake Garda, in the im.
mediate vicinity of the fight. The
Prussian army corps have com.
menced hostilities in Silesia. Three
Prussian detachments had come upon
an Austrian regiment and inflicted
some loss upon it. Two attempts
have been made by the Hanoverian
army to break through the Prussian
line between Eisenach and Gotha.
A dispatch dated Sunday the oath
says that the Hanoverian Comman.

A project Is on foot for the an.
OF Canads TO the United
Statos. A bill has recently been In
troduced In Congress with that view.
The Toledo Blade says OF IL:
The bill is extraordinary, and will
produce an excitement on the north
side OF the Lakes. The Canadians
have not, as yet, shown the slightest
disposition TO annex themselves TO
the United States, and IL they ever
had prediction that way, we pre-.
sumo they prefer waiting few years,
until our war debt is paid. The
United States can very we'll afford to
asstrme their small debt, inasmuch as
in doing 1t, they get rid Of heavy
proportion OF very large one. True,
the Canadians would be rid Of British
rule, and be secure against Fenian
ipvasions by annexipg themselves
to the United States, but as British
rule has built their public works and
developed their country, We see no
reason Why they should object to IL,
and having been brought face to face
with Fenianisnn, It is bug bear they
no longer fear.

The Bitter Bitten.

President johnson, when he re.
commended that clerks In the vari-
Gus departments who had not served
in the army, should be discharged
and soldiers appointed to fill the va
cancies, had no idea that his sug.
gestion should be acted upon, as it
was at his request that several men
who had been-if not actual rebels
at least doing all they could against
the Government, were appointed &c
good fat positions, right upon the
heel Of his suggestions. BUTT seems
that the Secretary of the Interior is Q
man who does as he is told, regard
less Of side winks, and consequently
he turned out twenty worthless fel'
lows, every man of whom were mem
bers Of the johnson Club, and put
soldiers in their places. That's
right.
