GooDl-Although we can not give
to ANDREW JOHNSON the support we
wish we could give an Executive, we
can not fail to ascribe praise where
praise is justly due. Nod,
FrTz JOHN PORTER, it is we'll known,
has been seeking a ~rehearing by a
Court of Inquiry Of the charges pre-.
ferred against him during the war
These charges, although not Of a po-
litical nature, will soon be proven to
have been the emanations of political
animosity.
Again we say, Goodl Let us have
more of it; there is law; there is JUS
tice. Let us be made know it from
the legal acts of those whose duty it
is to act legally. If ANDREW JOHNSON
is President let us know 1t; If not, let
them soon attempt his impeachment.
Let them not wait until the second
Tuesday of October has thrown a
halo of Democratic glory over two Of
the first States of the Union. Let
them not wait until Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania have proclaimed their will at
the October election, or it will be ev-
erlastingly too late. Make haste, jim.

HENRY NJ. OSDERDoNK, Of Gallipolis, has
received the nomination for State Senator. =
From our personal acquaintance with him,
w can say, that in every particular he is a
respectable man and gentleman, and a ster'
ling. simon-rure Democrat. We cau with
ell confidence in the man, recommend him 10
the people as being sound on the COnstitu-
tion and the Union Of the Sta ties, and op-
posed to Negro Suffrage. We say to the
people OF Vinton county, choose whom you
will have-H. c.. Jones, who is not iS- favoF
Of the Constitution and the reunion of the
States, but who Is in favor Of the Negro
Amendment, or Henry NJ. 0nderdonk, who Is
in favor Of the Consti:ut ioa and the union o.
the ststes-and who will ever vote NO
upon the Negro Suffrage Amendment, aei
Mr.. 0nderdOnk is just the man to vote
for.

Do not vote
!. Y. tt.

In voting the Radical ticket, why
do you do it?
The party came into power with the
country prosperous and happy, out Of
debt and at peace with the world.
1t has set the fundamental law of
the land at defiance.
1t has disregarded statuary enact
ments.
1t has fastened upon the country a
debt SO heavy that the people groan
under the payment Of the interest.
3 1t has established a bonded aristo-
cracy and exempted them from the
payment Of their just proportions Of
the burdens Of taxation, and the ex-
penses Of the poor and middle classes
are increased to make up the de6cicn
cy.
It has destroyed the Union Of the
States, and established in one-third Of
them the most arbitrary and Cypress
i've military despotisn.
1t has in ten States disfranchised
the intelligent and educated Whites,
and given the elective franchise to de-
graded and ignorant Negroes, for the
purpose of perpetuating partyascend
ancy. ~ yea4 5m DIV Rad rs
It has given high positions to in
competent men.
introduced corruption in every de-
partment of the Government. l9i1
Created thousands of offices for the
sole purpose of giving positions Of
profit to its votaries. f.,
Made the legislation Of Congress de-
pend upon the corruption fund furnish

Made bribery the power which en-
acts laws, and perjury the instrument

evils with which it proposes to- afiict

Then, reader, why will you vote
that ticket2 g,g i, si,tA
5 3 Is it because your prejudice is SO
strong against the Democracy that
you would sacrifice personal interest,
the interest of the masses, the liber-.
ties of the country, the political insti-

va ANNNNo
j. w BowEN:-We wish you to
publish the following in your paper,
for the information of the voters Of
the western part Of Vinton county;
John Fee, candidate for Representa-
tive ON the Ngro-political-equali
ticket, of this county, has been trav-
cling through Richland, Harrison, and
Eagle townships, and into Ross coun-
Hty, pretending to buy cattle, but os-
tensibly for electioneering purposes,
carrying two faces with him to suit
whichever he may come in contact
with, Democrat or Republican. When
he is with a Democrat, he tells him
that he is a good Democrat, opposed
to the Constitutional Amendment, and
will positively vote against it; and if
a Democrat tells him he will not vote
for, or do any thing for him, he will
say to him, Why, you are a Rebel"
When he is with a Radical and Is
asked what his views are on the
Amendment, his answer is: "Well, I
don't see any thing wrong about it; 1
suppose it's all right; the Niggers
were brought here and we ought to
take care OF them, and give them the
right to vote" 500 va d}e9 5G
Now, we want him to come out pub
licly through the press and say wheth-
er he is opposed to giving Negroes
the right to vote, and will vote against
it, or whether he is in favor of it, and
will vote for it; and if he does not we
will take it for granted that he is in
favor of the Negroes voting. We do
not care how many votes he thinks he
will get about Londonderry, but we
do not proposeto give him many here
till we know how he stands on the
question of Negro Suffrage. ga
