The sentence was seven DAYS imprisonment and

prisoner had asked, in the morning, that Doct Or
Hedges be sent for and the officer going for him,
found that that physician was absent. On Mon
day morning, however, Hedges came in, and made
prescription for deliTium tremenS. IL appears,
that all this while, Sheriff Murdoch did not know,
or affected not TO know, what was the matter with
Wech. The medicines prescribed by DR.. Hedges
quieted the sufferer, but he grew rapidly worse,
and, on Wednesday morning, he became wholly
deranged. Efforts were now made for his re-

PORTLAND, July 20, 1867.

The colored men of Ohio met in convention in
this city on the Sd inst. The meeting was re.
50 ectable in point of numbers, and the proceed
ings were characterized by a decorum which
would have done honor to any convention that
ever assembled here. In the most respectful
manner the convention requested the voters OF
Ohio, acting In their sovereign capacity, at the
coming October election, to grant the colOred
race the rights of full citizenship. Thereupon
all the low strung Democratic loafcrs, who hang
around whisky shops and corner groceries,
taking their cue from Judge Thurman and the
Democratic press, eXcAim in chorus: Look at
the impadeRce OF the id nigger He's trying
to instruct as Down with him
Even in despotic Russia, the humblest serf nav
present his petition to the Emperor, and he will
be treated with respect. The Constitution of
Ohio provides that the peOple-any people whom
sOevGr--shnll have the right to peacefully assem-
BILE and petition for redress Of grievances The
request Of these men is in the nature Of petition
They feel themselves aggrieVed they say they
are charged with all the duties, dangers and re-
sp0nsiJities of citizenship, but are denied its
privileges and they appeal for justice to the
voters Of the State. Whether we feel disposed
to grant the prayer of their petition or not, we
have no right to abuse and spurn the petitioners
and he who will do IL Is unworthy Of the name OF
an American citizen.

though they were--reprcsented five thousand
men, many of them maimed and disabled for life,
who had worn with honor their cOuntrys uni

with their iair-skinned comrades amidst the iron
and leaden hail Of many glorious field And
they would have represented three thousand
more had they not, in the same service, been con-
signed to hOnored graves by disease, and by the
swords aud bullets Of the enemy. Are such men
to de ScoHcd at, derded and abused And is it
not intOlcmble that they should be thus treated
by men who escaped the dangers and hardship@ of

LAW AND ORDER.

Under the above title we find a
lengthy editorial in the Herald, attempt
ing to prove that the rebels ought not
to be controlled by the loyal men, and
the Government that conquered them,
and prevented them from destroying
the Government The article takes
the true Democratic stand, that when
the rebels were conquered, they had the
right to take charge of the Government,
and dictate terms to the conquerors.
But we set out to notice one sentence
in this editorial. 1t is this:
The proposition that ''might makes right
that brute force can be q source of Law for Chris
tan freemen is so vile so revolving to all honora-
BILE sentiment, that We wonder that any honest
Intelligent person, for moment could think il
correct.
That is precisely the opinion that we
have held for thirty years. Slavery is
based upon this very idea, that "might
makes right'-that brute force, when
it has the power, acquires the right to
use its victims as it chooses. Why
any man protesting the least respect for
Christianity orcommon honesty, should
subscribe to such revolving and mon
strous doctrine, has always been pass
ing strange, and yet this has been, and
still is, the fundamental principle of the
Democratic party.

REPUTATION.

Bro Monahan comes to time, and an
swcra our last question by claiming that
the debt incurred to put down the Dem
ocratic rebellion oughtto be repudiated
That is consistent, A party that will
swindle negroes, will swindle its cred
itors. And it is more manly to swindle
white men, who are capable of taking
care of themselves, than to sWindle the
helpless negroes. A party that will
violate the plain letter of the constitu-
ton, by depriving onc-sirth of the peo-
pie OF liberty and property, without due
process of law, is only consistent when
dcpriying honest creditors of property
only. Tho whole Democratic party is
one great swipdle.

On next Wednesday the Union voters
of Jackson county will appoint dele
gates to the county nominating con-
vention. Let the people turn out, and
select their best men. We hope the
county convention will act with pru-
dence and discretion. With a good
county ticket, we can carry Jackson
county this fall. If there should be any
divisions among us, we are gone up.
1t is useless to attempt to disguise this
fact. The enemy have put up their
strongest men, and they are sanguine
of success. We have no strength to
expcnd upon each other. Let us unite
as one man, to fight the enemies of our
country, Let us lay aside our personal
preferences, if necessary, and sacrifice
our individual aspirations, for the good
of the common cause. Let the con-
vention bear these things in mind on
next Thursday, and all will be well.

flames Emmett.

Has been set up before us as the proper man to
carry the cOlOrs of the Democratic party IN the
ensuing campaign, to represent this senatorial
district In the higher branch of our state general
assembly. Mr.. Emmett has been a very Success
flll man in money getting Indeed. his desires
in that direction have been satlated. lie wants
no mOre The pleasure of money piling, without
being coupled W ith q rational and worthy system
of expenditure has its limit. The soul becomes
surfeitcd upon IL. Ii Mr.. Emmett had adopted a
system of cxpending ten per cent of the great
sums he made on whisky to the relief of widows
who were bereavcd by his business, he might
have added to his Golfers ad inhnitum. If he had
educated the poor drunkard'5 boy whom whisky
was the means of making worse than an orphan,
the pleasure OF money getting would not have
paIled, and he become satlated so soon. But, he
left out of his financial plan this very necessary
part. William LlOyd Garrison Is now the guest
of kings and lords In England for the liberal and
lavish expenditures he has made on the poor.
But Emmett Is the candidate Of the democratic
party of SciOto county, because he has made piles
of money and has never expended any on benevo-
lent objects, and can therefore afford to be bled
by the central committee of all the counties of
his district. As the money Is not to be used for
any good purpose of course this will not change
Mr. Emnctt's programme.
Since Mr. Il. has lost his taste for max ing mon
ey, he has tried one other experiment-traveli
In Europe. Here he spent both his time and
money, hoping to find new pleasure In lieu Of
that which he had just lost. The taste for travel
soon became satisfied Now he thinks running
for Office will be good way to add TO his fund Of
rational pleasures. We hope he II have good
time Of IL, but We sincerely hope our people will
choose higher type OF the representa- tive man.

WAR IN GALA COI,NrY.

We have omitted to notice the recent troubles
at KygorvIlle, Gallla county, as we wanted to Get
the facts.
Some time ago, one James Panky a bItterco
porhead was appointed Postmaster at Kygorvilo.
The loyal people felt outraged, and refused tC
have anything to do with him, or to sell him any,
thing. He claimed that the people had formed
a conspiracy against him, and he went to Gin
elnnatl and swore out warrant before the U. B
Commissioner, and had some half dozen per
sous arrested, among them two of the Brad,
burys, relatives Of Hon. Jos. Bradbury, State
Senator The case has been continued until
September
In the mean time warrant was sworn out
against Panky for perjury, and when the officer
attempted 10 arrest him he resisted, and on the
two charges no was finally arrested, aud Ia now
in Jail at Galllpolls. 4lI..|r

t8-WE see a silly attempt at joking in MANY of
our copperhcOd exchanges. The story is that q
Republican came up to q celebration of the 4th
of July, and heard n man reading the Declara-
ton Of Independence. He listened few min
utes, and then turned away in disgust, inquiring
who that was making that copperhead speech.
Now the man who would claim that there Is
any similarity between the Declaration of indie
pendencc and the doctrines of the cOppcrhead
party, must unite the stupidity of the ass, with
the impudence Of the devil. And yet we do find
copperheads who unite this stupidity with this
mpudencc "We hold these truths to be self
evident; that al men are created equal and are
endowed by their creator with certain inalienable
rights; thOt among these are life liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness" says the glorious old
Declaration. Negroes have no rights which
white men are bound to respect, says the cop
pcrhead. If you can, by constitutional and stat
utory prohibitions, reduce n man to helpcssness,
trip him up, bind him hand and foot, and make
him your beast Of burden. Blot out the light of
his immortal soul deny him the Bible steal all
his earnings steal his wife and children; and
then curse him for his degradation, and then
prate about tlberty, and howl against despotl.nf
then you will be a copperhead of whom tIb
devil will be proud

nominated James Emmitt for Senator
for this District
Several Democrats have told us that
they are sure to elect Mr.. Emmitt, as
the party can have all the money and
whisky needed 1t was remarked at
Portsmouth, after the nomination, that
MAcKLEY would pitch into Emmitt, be-
cause he was the great whisky man Of
this part Of the State. We may have
somewhat to say upon this subject
Mr.. Emmtt is said to be worth over
a million of dollars. And il is all he is
worth. He made it all manufacturing
whisky. Who can calculate the misery
caused by this man. But he is fit

Card from j. Edward Jones, Esq.
d. MAcKLEY, ESQ. -DEAR SIR: ]
have very recently understood from
some of my personal and political
friends that rumor has gone abroad
either through a design or a misnnder-
standing, that should have said at a
certain time some time since, that !
was in favor of the candy johnson
policy" and opposed to the acts of Con-
ress,-which rumor perhaps has ten
dency to injuro me, politically, (and if
true it should), where l am not well
knownj and in justice to myself and
the loyal public, I thought it best to
let the public know through the press
what my political views aud sentiments
have been and now are.
l would now distinctly say to the
public, | always have been, and now
am, utterly opposed to the reconstruc-
ton policy known as the candy John
son policy" and have and still look
upon it as designing, corrupt, and
treacherous to the country and the loyal
people of the great Union party that
elected him and always have and still
indorse the acts of Congress in every
measure they have passed in recon-
structing the rebel States and bringing
them to their proper relation and place
within the Union, And l would say
further that | never uttered word or
sentiment in favor of said candy john
son policy and against Congress to any
person, under any circumstances, or at
any time entertained such sentiments.
TO the truth of which, if any would
not take my word, am willing to be
qualified if necessary
Respectfully yours,

lGNOR

The editor of the Herald thinks we
are ignorant because we quoted the
preamble to the Constitution of the
United States, and he has to admit that
tho preamble clearly proves our posi-
tion, and then to avoid this conclusive
proof, he says that the preamble is no
part Of the Constitution. But in anoth-
er article he quotes Daniel Webster as
saying;
"The Constitution was made by the States and
not by the people united. 1t should, therefore,
read, We, the people of the States united. ;"
So it seems that Daniel Webster
claims that this preamble Is part of the
Constitution. 1t is Webster VS.. Mon
ahan, and as Monahan thinks he is
smarter than Webster, we suppose that
he must be declared to have gained the
point at issue.
