Good Ola Fashioned Doo,rine.

From the Cincinnati Gazette, July III.
at Is, says the Democratic organ of
st. Louis, "a good, old fashioned doctrine,
that Government is organized and ad-
mnistered for the good of the commu-
nifty, and that offices are to be filled by
those whom the people may select, and
that the right to an office accrues only
when one is duly elected or appointed to
Ii.
In this clear sentence there is a gleam
of common sense, and deserves to be
quoted as an encouragementto the DEM
ocracy of the whole country to abandon
the sophistries to which 1t has given it
self since the year 1851. Then the South
ern wing of the party where Its main
strength was concentrated, utterly repu-
dated the "good, old fashioned doctrine"
proclaimed by the st. Louis paper, that
offices are to be filled by those whom the
people may select and who are duly elect
cd. Abraham Lincoln was selected by
the people and duly elected to the Pres
idency, and the Democratic party there
upon attempted to overthrow the Gov
ernment, and fought 1t out on that line
to ignominious defeat. 1t Is cheering to
notice one good Democrat again announe'
ing the good, old fashioned doctrine,
and the.sooner the whole party comes
back TO IL the quicker will Union and
concord be restored.

Senator Wade.

From the Ashtabua Sentinel, of last week.
We copy a part of a sketch of Senator
Wade, given by u correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial, not so much to
inform our readers what Senator Wade
is, as to show what stuff some men will
have the assurance to presume the read
ing public have the stupidity to believe.
1t is well for Mr.. w. that heisindiffer-
ent to the twaddle that o temporary
Boswell may get off; but it is not very
complimentary to the general 1ntelli-
gence of the country, to see such mess
of bosh published, and copied as friend
ly notice of man occupying the contin-
gent succession to the Presidency of the
United States. Some of this stuff is
doubtless true, as it would be to say that
Senator Wade experienced any of the
common phases of human life-that he
was child, from which he grew to man.
hood, under the circumstances usual to
American citizens. But the stories about
his studying Algebra when plowing,
and reading the Bible by pine knot light,
are only specimens of the very poor eff
fort this Jenkins makes to chalk out
the conventional ideal of the backwoods
politician. The people of this State,
who have so often and SO long honored
Mr.. Wade, are not possessed with the
idea that he is wild ignoramus, to cor
rect which they must be told that he
reads the Westminster Review and At
lantic Monthly; nor do they suppose him
a demigod, that Mr. Jenkins is obliged
to haul him down to the common level,
by telling us that he reads Nasty and
reeites Mother Goose. Few men are
better known i'm the State than Senator
Wade: and the people justly estimate
him as man of talent and strong COM
mon sense, who has learned the lessons
of life in that varied school, the world at
large, where every observant man learns
most, by the use of clear head, guild
ing powerful will, using the advantages
that have come within his reach to good
purpose. They have never cared nor
enqnired, whether, if he read at nights,
he used candles or pine knots, the ques-
ton with them being how much and how
well he learned, by the light he had. III
he labOred under disadvantages in early
life, they know that he has overcome
them and they know, too, that fair tai
ents and industryin this country will
overcome large amount of poverty and
'ohscurity. 1t does not concern the peO-
pie at large how poor or how rich he may
have been or may be, nor whether he
eats butter, or buffers his bread on both
sides. 1t is sufficient that they know
him as a man of talent, honest and
faithful to the principles he processes and
they value, and earnest in the purpose
to stand by the right. Thus far they
have honored him and trusted him be-
cause they know this of him; and all
future honor or confidence will rest on
the same basis.

A HORRIBLE ACCIDENTAL CHILD
EMPALEp.--On last Saturday morning,
about six o'clock, little daughter of Mr..
Geo. Grassland, of this city, aged about
eleven years, while visiting some friends
near the County fair grounds, met with
a fearful accident, 1t seems the little
girl had climbed up q cherry tree, about
IL feet above the top of n picket fence
which ran along Just underneath the
tree, and was engaged In picking cher
ries, when, from some callse unknown,
probably missing her hold, or slipping
Off the limb on which she was standing,
fell on the fence, one of the sharp plckets
entering her throat CLOSE to the chin,
penetrating near the windpipe as far as
the root of the tongue, which 1t badly
lacerated. In this position, with the
picket In her throat, and holding on to
the fence with her hands, she was found
In about three minutes after the accident.
She was brought to her fathers residence
In this city, were DIR, Reamy IL attending
her, with good prospects of her recovery
| Notwithstanding her severe injuries. =
Hervocal power was entirely destroyed
by the accident.-[Zanesvi Courier.

Center Point, Clay County, Ind, went
to creek near her house to dothe family
washing, taking with her three small
children. The two elder while playing
about the woods were bitten by avenom-

fell into the creek and was drowned. The
other children died the same night from

officer in the Union army. At the close
of the contest, he established himself as
a lawyer in Nashville, Tennessee, and
has been quietly attending to his busi-
ness ever since. Tuesday last he receiv-
ed through the past Office the following
letter.:
NASHVILLE, July 8, 1867.
b. r. Cook. ...
SIR: We are from portion of Middle
Tennessee, where you were camped with
yourregiment when you were Captain in

ever since the suppression of the rebel

not know of your whereabouts. We do
not desire to murder you, but have de-
termined to drive you from the State OF

ously heaped upOn oar sisters. We now
give you FIVE DAYS to leave in. If, at

Even the Nashville rebel Banner, OF
whose incendiary teachings the above
letter is one of the legitimate fruits, is
ashamed of it, and says "it is either a
wretched joke or the work OF aspiritless
coward" "
Cook himself replies, after the follow
ing fashion, in the Press and Times:
TO the writer's of the above epistle,
have to say First. If they are in earnest
about Furnishing the insulter of theil
sisters, they had better he sure they have
found the right man before they hoot
