THE Fayette County Register says; "Our
county took the first and second premiums
at the State Fair for fine cattle-the stock
belonged to Mr.. Anderson Dewitt. AT the
Pickaway County Union Fair our county
took all the best premiums for fine cattle,
Mr.. Dewitt, Thomas Kirk and others from
this county taking premiums. At the fairs
all around us our little county has carried
off the first premium for fine cattle. In
deed. we think there is no other county in
the Union where there isso much fine stock
as In Fayette." s- o~ a
THE Hooking Sentinel says: "THE OHIO
STATEsMAN asks. the questlon-'Shall our
next State Nominating Convention be held
on the Eighth of January, 1867 P-and an
swers Il to our entire satisfaction; and we
can youch for its expressing the opinion OF
our entire Democratic people," The Sen
tiuel then reproduces, our article against
holding the Convention so early, and gives
iteditorial prominence. We have already
received letters from leading and ipfuen-
tial Democrats from quite large proper
tion of the counties of the State, all con-
curing with us, that our State Convention
ought not to be held before the final adj
journment of Congress and the Ohio Leg
islature. q mil l3 Ll61 10 IeATo
THE Cincinnati Commercial Of Friday says:
at will be remembered that few months
ago. the Rev. NIL. p Thompson, who had
bean pastor Of the Second Presbyterian
Charch of this city, was convicted Of an
off,nse which was mildly described as the
ssin of impurity.' II aacommon, wicked
person about town, had been found guilty
Of the crime committed by, Dr.. Thompson,
we suppose he would have been given an
opportunity to repent and do the appro-
priate works, in the cold shade of heavy
stone wall. Bat we learn from the Gazette
that the DIR. has been restored. Our cotem-
porary states the case in these terms: Rev.
Dr..Thompson, late pastor Of the Second
Presbyterian Church in this city, was sus-
pended from the ministry until he should
give satisfactory assurances Of repentance
for his misconduct. On,Thursday last sew
eral1 ministers from Buffalo, New York,
and other places East appeared before the
Cincinnati Presbytery and asked his resto-
ration 10 ministerial functions, on the
ground of contrite and full repentance.
Aftef patient and preyerfIl deliberations,
the Presbytery, by almost q unanimous
vote, restored the Doctor to the rights and
priviie&es Of HIS sacred Office. 1t isnnder-
stood that he win probably engage in some
home missionary labors in the vicinity Of
Buffalo, his former and present residences"
