The last nnttcr OF any interest OF which
we were witness was the nomination for
lnfrmary Dircctor-which was the be-
ginning of the ,lishing ont Of the -spoon
vittlos. MIcIbNEI MOYER, Of Mlami Town
ship was the fonhiueolf6r this place. The
other nominations amount 90 nothing, we
believe; and were hastily made. Then tho

A pretty mess, truly! The city and
the big townships--German and Miami
ran Off with aH the offices; and II Fox
can be said 70 belong TO Miami aftct three
years residence IN Dayton where he WIN
probably lecao prnmnsntly, the pro-
grammc was to run even him of for man
from the city. Aud tie only representa-
tion allowed the country at all was DAVID
lsos, II heeM be said t6bclcngto tliecoun-
try. Fox, and MOYER. The city ran off
with the Probate Jndgeshlp; the Auditors
Office the Treasurcr's Onice; the Commits
Misunderstanding In the Court House Besides
a city Recorder, and city Prosecuting
Attorney. We wish our Republican friends
Joy atthe prospect befofcthem, They can
now see how their change of representation
works andNvill beforcc,l to admit the truth
Of our argument that the rule of repre-
sentation is unfair rand improper ana would
not be insisted upon except by city in
triguers desiring to control the country in
nominating conventions.
This ends our account OF the Merchants
and Manufacturer Convention. Wethank
Heaven again that We never hold any of
that style. We prefer the "common mass;
and our confidence in them has not been
shaken by the argumentsof tho Journal, or
theepericnce ofSaturday.s We are afraid
that the editoroi that paper has been warp
ed in his views by being in. constant asso
citation with the high fIiers;" aud contain
mated by too many good bills of adyertis-
ing from the same source. But In bidding
for that he has lost that other apple OF his
eye-thc county printing. He will make
desperate efforts TO preyent,lt ;,will call ont
"VALLANDIGHAMl VAIIAEDIGmAMr at the
top of his voice; and shout Nunion" and
war" but it win be the shrieking and
ravlng Of the drowning man. The great
mass Of the conservative people win march
steadily on, and his fate and that of the city
sehemers is inevitable. %
We drew three conclusions from the re-
suit of Saturday, and anobservation OF the
proceedings:
BTst; That having supported Judge
HAYNES for office last fall will always dcbar
a man from Office IN Montgomery County
upon the Abolition side
Secondly: That hereafter no man from
the country can succeed IN getting n nomi-
nation, unless he fawns upon the city poll |
ticians and gets his name upon their slate
Thirdly That TO have served in the war
for three years either as private or Captain
amounts to nothing in Republican Con-
vention. Wcmight have been prepared for
such Il result ina "Copperhead" Convention
full of 'miserablc traitorsp &c. &e.-but |
that ''loyal men" should have taken this |
shoot amazes us beyond description.
Z. S. Since writing the above we have
learned that MICHAEL MoYER is claimed as |
a resident of Washington Township, In
