The T;ntou Record, published at
Macarthur, Ohio, under the manage
ment of Wallace E. Bratton, makes
a good mechanical appearance,
and is sheet that exhibits fair
ability. 1t runs up the democratic
ticket, too. We have, however,
one word to say to our cotemporary:
The radical faction of Ylnton coun-
ty have, at Zelaski, a paper oftheir
own-W0 HeralQ-and, hence it
is that We can see no earthly
reason for printing such articles as
that in the Record of the I'd inst,
signed "**#, Secretary Pro bono
PuJlicO," and that other, signed
"+**." Radicals have no better
right to exact such fayors of a
democratic press than have we to
control, in whole or in part, the
columns of THE Marietta Register.
The above is from the Marietta
Times, and we can reply to Bro.
Hood, that we entertain great re-
spectator his opinions, and concede
that his experience and known
ability entities his suggestions to
consideration. The fact is, that
the Times is scarcely ever in error
in its statements of facts, or on
clusions, but Bro. Hood is not fully
posted on the local status, of the
Recorl and Herald so far as our
county is concerned. There is a
future ahead, as well as the present
to be guarded. This Press, we will
admit, has perhaps, been more
tolerant to its opponents, than any
Press Of either party in the State; its
policy has had much to do, we think,
in keeping Vinton Go. where she
is to-day, politically; and no
Press in the State has more strenu-
ausly advocated and invited discus
sion in its columns and on the
stump.

Military Element in the Philadel-
phia Convention.

Military Element I'm the Philadel-
phia Convention.
The military element was strong
in the Philadelphia Convention
1t is thus alluded to by the Phila-
delphia correspondent of the New
York Times:
"There was another personal ell
ement that was not the less graft.
flying: that was the large number Of
prominent general officers of the
Federal armies during the late war.
There was .Steedman-and who,
seeing him rise in the Convention,
but remembered the terrible,
scorching battle-heat Of Chicka-
mauga, where Steedmen stood un.
wavering among the most trusted
and valued of the lieutenants of
Thomas! There was Custer-how
the nation loves and adores him |!
Custer! the synonym of dashing
gallantry and unfaltering fidelity.
Said Sheridan, on one of the days
before Cold Harbor, 'Custer, l wish
you would take a regiment and
clean those fellows OUT Those
fellows were a brigade Of the ene-
my half a mile away upon the
left. Custer looked at his watch,
estimated mentally the distance,
and mounted his horse, saying,
General, it shall be done in twen-
ty minutes In twenty minutes it
was done. That was Custer. There
was Rousseau--we all remember
him, the gallant soldier, the stead
fast patriot, who rode the Union
battle-line through scores of con.
ficts. There was Crowford, a di.
vision commander in the Army Of
the Potomac from Wilderness to
Appomattox. There was Mellow
ell, McCook, from first to last
throughout the war serving the
cause of the Union in. the van Of
its armies, and holding high com.
mand. To these could be added
scores of Others, of lesser renown,
perhaps, but not less faithful sol
diers of the Republic.
