We believe the masses of the people

be exposed to the people, and that
nothing is wanting to insure a glorious
triumph to the President, but the re-

the misrepresentation and falsehood of

ment, break down the rights of the
States and centra1ize supreme power

tory. They have inaugurated a revo-

praise, has resisted their encroach-

has thwarted many of their designs.
For this, he has been denounced by {
their newspapers and politicians, and

to be seen if there is patriotism enough
in the North to preserve the country

days of the Republic, when official
oaths were regarded asof bindingforce
and Constitutions were not treated as
waste paper. Certainly, for a number
of years past, such sentiments have
been rarely heard, and it is refreshing
now to hear them repeated, and, moro
especially, by tho Executive head of
the Federal Union. 1t looks as though
the clouds that have obscured the lustre
Of our National fame were disappearing
and that, Andrew Johnson being Presi-
dent, we were soon again to become an
united people, free, prosperous and
happy, Let the people rejoice that in
the insorutablc Providence by which

had authority and could act with the
concurrence of the great body of peo-

The Ohio Statesman has an account
Of the falling out of a window of tho
fourth story Of house, of a little girl
in u somnambulic state. The child is
about nine years old, and on Saturday
night, about twelve o'clock, got out of
her bed, went to the window, and fell
out. In her descent she struck one of
the iron rods used for the support of an
awning. This rod gave away and
threw her out from the house on totho
pavement. Singular, the child was
unhurt, save the soraping and blister
ing Of her hand, and the knocking out
and breaking of two or three of her
teeth. There were some scratches and
bruises on her face, an abrasion of the
skin on her breast, and a bruse on one
Of her knees,
