ONO vErEnANs IN COUNCIL.


The following are the principal res
olutions adopted By the State Conven-
ton Of the Grand Army Of the Re
public at Columbus last week
Resolrea That she l@Hatd- Array
of the Republic is not organized to
make nominations for office, nor as a
mere sect or combination, to furthur
the ambition of political aspirants +;
but its purpose Is to promote the cause
of active loyalty, and to advance by
all legitimate and proper Influences, the
general welfare and interests of sui-
dIers lately in the United States army;
aud to secure the attaiument Of these
ends, we invite the co operation and
support Of all patriotic and liberal.
minded citizens.
''I2esozUed, That to refute calumny
aud prevent misapprehension, we here
by declare while the Grand Army Of
the Repu bic has its secret ceremonies
and means of recognition. such as are
wisely and properly adopted by all
similar societies to increase their use
fUlness and efficiency, it attempts no
eOnceaiment as tOlts existence or mem
berBhip, and has no object that it is
not ready on all proper occasions to
avOw and that conscious of the just
ness Of our principles, we will inscribe
them upon our banner SO plainly that
all may know and understand them.
''Resogged, That the benevolent OBJ
ject of the Grand Army of the Re-
public is to care particularly for the
interest Of the widows and orphans
of our fallen comrades, to aid in secu
ring employment to the disabled heroes
of the war, and to secure by every
means in its power the interests of
those who, during the past contest for
the supremacy of the Government,
united in pledging their lives and
means for its defense.
'ResolUed, That we urge upon Con-
gress the justice of passing the bill in
troduced py General Schenck, for the
equalization Of Government bounties,
and in this connection we would re-
commend that provision be made for
the payment of bounty to soldiers who
have lost their discharges.

00Ns1sEENCE AND ExPEDLnHoT

Our General Assembly seems prone
to staye off the question of universal
suffrage on grounds of expedieney. 1t
is manifestly afraid Of the old Demo-
cratic ghost, pretending it to be a
lion in its way. Shall we then be
frightened from our duty by a scare
crow It is humiliating indeed if the
Republican party of Ohio, crowned
with so many victories, shall now hes
itate to accept the challenge of the
Copperheads on an issue of right and
justice. Expediency, in this case, is
simply another name for fear, and fear
the most inezcusable, for we are fright
ened by an enemy without courage,
without principle and whom we have
beaten again and again. The Demo-
cratic party would to-day take up the
doctrine Of universal suffrage if it
dared. And shall the great Republic
an party show itself equally weak ?
But grant that fear is not the motive,
let our Legislature be consistent. The
House Of Representatives has lust
passed a resolution thanking Congress
for enaeting universal suffrage IN the
District Of Columbia. Both Houses
have passed the Constitutional Amend
ment which embOdies the doctrine that

far more meritorious enterprise than
going to sea ia a tub, or the other have
spurued the funkeys who would make
him great in spite Of himself
James and Alfred were two good
boys, who had little ships, and lanes s
ship sailed over the pond. Alfred
was so glad that he asked James to
dinner, and they had gingerbread
So James offered to give Alfred his
little ship. as proof that all James s
countrymen were so glad Alfred had
given him such a nice dinner But
Alfred weuld't take the little ship be-
cause it was too good for him, and so
both boys were glad, and hoped their
families would never quarrel. For
further particulars see cable dispatches.

Profound peace ostensibly reigns in
Europe and yet the wretched old dy-
nasties of the Continent, already bur
dened with tremendous national debts,
are organizing immense armies as
though on the eve Of great war
Louis Napoleon has already put near
" million Of men on a war footing;
Prussia has standing force near
w as great besides a vast reserve
of trained militia; Russia has 700,-
900 men under arms, 100000 train
ed soldiers who can be put in the
ranks in six weeks, and is preparing to
supply her army with 100000 breech-
loading rifles, and 300 rifed cannon
during the present year; while Austria
is energetically taxing her exhausted
people to fill up and thoroughly equip
a force which shall give her the appear
anee, at least, of being still one of the
first powers of Europe Such are the
burdens and fate of monarchy. Free
America just emerged from a revolu-
ton, with eleven great States in a con-
dition of semi-rebellion, and with an
Indian war on her borders, has a
standing force Of about 50 regiments.
But European despotisms, professed-
" at peace, are kept continually on a
war footing. The masses. already
groaning beneath enormous burdens,
are taxed to maintain immense armies
and ornaments for no other purpose
than to provide against or crafty

despotic potentates whose petty whims
and passions may in a moment involve
the whole continent In bloody strife.

The East jealous of the West, the
North of the South, the Pacific States

spring with foreign powers for its own
interests and against the interests of
its rivals, each equipping armies and

therefore semi-despotism, what a gIo-
rious Democratic political bedlam we
would have had
It was just such a state of things
the Copperheads demanded when they
represented that the war for the unity
Of the country had been a failure and
must cease. They facilitated iustsueh
a state of things by their opposition
TO war measures and the sympathy and
encouragement uniformly offered by
them to the destroyers Of the Govern
ment. Toward this Democratic doc

Colonel s.. was a gallant soldier
com handing a brigade in the old
Twentieth Corps of Sherman's Army.
He had in his command a splendid
brass band which used to enliven the
camp on every opportune occasion with
stirring and faoinating music, with
which Col S. was very fond of enter
tanning his friends when they visited
him. In short Col S. naturally felt
a little vain Of his band, and on field
days it formed no less attractive fea-
ture in the display of his brigade than it
did of the festive occasions which,

staid habits, used to transpire at his

place and Colonel S. was delighted
with the politeness of his cicerone,
the neat and convenient arrangements
of the establishment, and more espee-
tally with the wonderful fnger-talk of
the inmates. The sympathies of his
brave heart were at once enlisted for
the poor unfortunates who could nei-
ther hear nor talk, so turning to the
superintendent he naively vented his
generous feeling and at the same time
disclosed one of the last ''infrmities"
of his noble mind by saying "Sir,
you have charming place here and
you have highly entertained me. By
your leave 1 viii repay you by bringing
over my band this evening and enter

sic. The ColoneI's comrades seized
the joke and reminded him that the
poor mutes however much they might
enjoy the mechanical movements Of
the performers would not be likely to
appreciate the music. From that day
until the time he dofFed a Brigadier's
