The Sciotoi continued to fall yesterday,
slowly, reluctantly, much more SO than it
didlast week after It llad begun to subside.
1t did not probably tall during the day yes-
terday more than eight or ten inches. In
the afternoon the water was still making
oyer the tluIce-wey It had made above
Moneypenny's warehouse, into the flats
north of the National road. 1t was also
pouring in deep and rapid streams through
the, two, cllyerts on the road between the
Broad street bridge and Franklinton. But
the water appeared to'be gradually drain
ing off from the southern and western por-
tions of Middletown into the river on the
south through all, ,opepipg made in the-ep-
bankment to let OF the wa4r Sl{f by the
first flood, but which served the double
purpose OF letting the water in when the
second flood came, and of letting 1t ofrkh1hI

time. 1t will probably be several days be-

DEMOCRATlC CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS-
POstpOnement Of State Fair.

The recent flood having completely mum
dated the city of Dayton, destroying and
seriously damaging vast amount Of prop
erty, go as to render it almost matter Of
impossibility for the citizens of Dayton to
extend that hospitality to visitors and
guests which is their wont to do. A con-
sultation beingheld with some OF the prom
inent citizens by members of the State
Board of Agriculture, it was considered
advisable, in view of the present condition
of the city, as well as the uncertainty Of
the railways being in condition to convey
freights and passengers in season TOR the
advertised time of the Fair, TO POSTPONE IT
UNTIL TUESDAY, THE 10TH OF oCToBER. lrr
1t is but fair to presume that the city of
Dayton will be in order by that time, that
the railway trains will have resumed regu-
lar trips, aud that fair weather at least will
have set in. rl.Isuar.

We have been waiting for several weeks
tosee some Republican journal charge that
itisto the Democratic party that the Ne
groes in Ohio are indebted for the rights and
privileges they enjoy. About election time
tits the custom of Republican journals to
say that IL was the Democratic party of
Ohio that repealed the Black Laws, and
thereby gave free admission of the Negroes
to the State; that to the Democratic party
the Negroes are indebted for the Civil
Rights they enjoy--the right 70 sue and be
sued IN the Courts, and the Ifghtt0 testify;
that IL Is 10 the decision ora Democratic
Supreme Court that colored persons who
have preponderance Of White blood In
them are entitled to vote; that through
Democratic legislation provision was made
to educate Black children. Republican
journals having been silent on this subject
ddhog the present eampaigts wewepe get7
ting into the belief that they would allow
at least one political contest to pass With,
out arraigning the Democratic party ON
these charges, or on charges of a similar
character. The Sdndusky Register (Radi-
cal J Of the 10Th, however, has t1ispelled the
belief we were falling Into, 1t calls upon
the Irish and Germans not to vote the
Democratic Ticket. 1t is prompted to
make these calls because 1t Is opposed to
allowing the Negroes either to come into
or remain in Ohio. II wants the Germans
and Irish to believe that herein it speaks
the wishes Of the Republican party in
Ohio, 1t asserts this; u..' -. ~ -'i,.l y,
"The policy of the, Democratic leaders,
among whom we now count President
JOhnson, tends;directly and Inevitably to,
force the Negroes Of the South to leave the,
Southern. States and seek shater from per-
secution In, Northern communities where
White and Black are alike secure from
the Union ticket means justice to the Ne.
gro and his retention South; a vote for the
Democratic ticket means oppression to the
freedman aud his consequent Emigration
North" r~ii,,f.s',... ., ir. ~ o.,
Why did not the Radical Convention that
"a few weeks ago met at Philadelphia, when
they declared it was necessary to make
voters out of the Negroes, declare that this
was made necessary to induce all the Ne
groes 10 go South and cause them to re-
main there? Why did not BEN. BUTLER's
Pittsburgh Convention resolve the same
thing? How many Irishmen and Germans
does the Register expect to catch with such
chaff as it throws out a a'H3I i- p

Reported the resolutions at the recent Pitts
burgh Convention, and after he had secured
their adoption, he made very Radical
speech. To his own satisfaction he proved
that the Southern States succeeded in get
ting outyof the. Union-that they are out
now, and shall remain out until It shalt
please the Radicals to allow them to come
in. AS BEN. stood unfiinching by JEFF.
DAVIS in the Charleston Convention, SO he

Fhe Radical leaders in this (the 7th) Dis
trict have ascertained that only through
the Negroes who, are allowed to vote in
Greene county does Mr.. SHELLABARdER
stand any chance of re. election. The Ne
groes who vote in that county are sup
posed to, hold the balance Of power in the
District. Hence, the Journal on the 25th
said it has "less concern" for the "White
Workingmen" than for the Negroes, be-.
cause the former have the +" ballot and the
latter have it not, as class. 1t was sup
posed that that editorial would settle the,
Business with the Negroes, in Greene county
and secure their vote, as usual, for Mr..
SHELLABARGER. jm aW i sud- 'at,tev
Up in the 9th District the Negroes who
are allowed to, vote are exceedingly few.
There are not enough of them to save Cen
eral BUCKLAND from defeat. The Sdndusky
Register, therefore, has undertaken to make
the Irish and Germans believe that If they
will vote the Republican ticket they shall
thereby have helped o. party to power
whose policy is to put all the Negroes down
into the South and TO keep them there.
We know that General BucKLAND's pros
poets of an election are decidedly bad, and
we are not surprised to see the Register do
ing Its utmost to save him from defeat
but we submit to it whether it is good poll
icy for it to advocate views that shall
cause the detection Of the Negro voters in
Greene county from Mr.. sHELLABARGER,
and thereby insure his defeat2 ..,aIIu5l

Soldiers Picnics and worked through
their leagues industriously. Nevertheless

.r.. ntl. egatiOn-A Failure. % ...lt

NBAAAChArTfA r alhIhNEGs
When twas announced at Philadelpbi
that the Southern Loyalists," or, more
properly speaking, the delegation of
"Torch-and-Turpentinen incendiaries
would travel over the course President
JOHNSON had travelled In his recent tour, a
complaisapt smile settled down upon the
countenances of the Radicals throughout
the country. They thought it would be
"a big, thiDg"-that those incendiaries
would raise such a storm OF enthusiasm as
would perfectly amaze Democrats u and
Conservative Inen-that there would be
such spontaneous uprising of the people
along their line OF travel as would cause
the elections to be carried by the Radicals
as with awhirlwind. When the National Re-
publican Convention, of which they formed
the conspicuous part, was in session at
Philadelphia, the "loyal" people of that
godly city threw themselves into torch
light procession one night. 1t was said by
parties to the demonstration that no such
imposing affair had ever before been wit
messed on this continent, 1t was designed
as the initial movement whereby the whole
country shouldbe set ablaze with excite
rnent in behalf Of the revolutionary Radi-
Gals. 'ii aii'a"'G % l11i .fd 3mnc
The whole movement has turned out to
be the most complete failure of any spoliti-
cal enterprise ever set on foot. Rightly
have the people looked upon them as the
most arrant, political swindlers that ever
undertook to, dupe the people, and they
turn away from them with scorn and con-
tempt. NG OA rtsf .HaIE rioH aNg aTuiH y

THROUGHOUT the past Ave years the acts
of the Radical Republican politicians have
furnished conclusive evidence that they
had sless concern " for sWhite Working

therefore, really necessary for the Journal
to say so in direct words. 1t was because
the Radicals had 'less concern" for "White

they refused to agree in good faith to the
Crittenden Compromise, or some other
measure or conclIlatlonv that would have
averted war and saved tho Union.
1t was because the Radicals had "less
concern for ,'Wbite ,Workingmen . than
for the Negroes that after the war was un-

people, that they demanded OF President
LINCOLN that he issue the emancipation
proclamation, and gave him no peace till
he did issue it. The Issuing Of that proclat
nation, enabled JEFF. DAVIS for the time
being to pacify the Southern people, and
to recruit his armies. oh Z. 4iolriL"
1t was beoanse the Radicals had "less

The -GaIhering Of Boys in Blue,

= - = - = II
After all the vast preparation and eXpen-
diture Of cash by our opponents, the gath-
ering of "BOys In Blue,p now In this city,
is not such wonderful affair after all. The
Gdzette yesterday announced that among
the gathering ''are men from the farthest
limits of New England, and from the dis
tant, West and Northwest.p In fact the
Convention was Intended as national mass
demonstration, with the, South excluded,
in which States were not to be represented
by merely regularly chosen delegates, but
by masses of people coming here on jolli-
fication. Taking this view of II, the meet
ing Of the t:Boys In Blue Is a significant
failure in numbers, for we have seen DEM
onstrstions confined to people of this
county exclusively, quite as pumeroilsly
attended and far more enthusiastic. The
Fremont demonstration in 1866, was one
of them, and yet we carried the State both
In October and November following.
The present meeting of "BOys in Blue,n
is of course pOrtisan one, intended to
effect our coming Guberuatorial election.
II is controlledin the interests of Geary,
by men whose chief labor is to keep the
States permanently separated. From not
one of these do we hear a word in favor Of
the Union, but on the contrary, the air is
heavy with their fierce denunciatiOns of
President johnson, because of his labors
for restoration. All the usurpatiOns of the
Congressional committee are indorsed by
their leaders, and palmed off as the spon-
taneous expression of the "Boys in Blue"
