Our Candidate for Senator.

The Vinton Record, in some re-
marks on the Senatorial election,
says:
1t appears from the returns that
Capt. Jones is elected by majority
of ten. In Vinton county his vote
was just with the candidate for Rep
resentatiye, notwithstanding the local
pressure that was made for the Hon.
Jno. Fee upon Democrats who were
not Joined to their idols, so that in
this county Capt. Jones made good
run. In B1eigs he is few votes
ahead of the Union candidate for the
Legislature. la Lawrence county
he ran AZ votes ahead of the Union
candidate tor the Legislature, and
90 votes ahead of the candidate for
the same office in Gallia, so that we
think he has made as good race as
any man that conld have been nomi-
mated in the District. If Captain
Jones had not run ahead of the re-
spective candidates for Representa-
tive he would have been defeated by
nearly two hundred votes.

A Rebel Judge Removed.

President johnson is unfortunate in
the selection of District. Commanders
for the South, under the Congressional
Reconstruction laws. Change of com
manders don't seem to bring;a change
of policy inthe treatment of these rebel
friends. of the President The truth is,
no matter how conservative an officer
may be before going South, the mo-
ment he reaches there and goes TO
work fairly and honestly to carry out
the law of Congress, he meets with so
many hindrances and Instructions from
the rebel element, as 10 teach him that
the spirit of secession and rebellion is
still there, and needs the strong arm of
military ..power,to subdue it. Hence,
let the commander be who he may, he
finds'severe measures ahe onl hope of
peace, and he proceeds to enforce them.
Here is an account of one of General
Canby's late acts, in this line: ,s,
General Canbv has removed Judge
A. P. Aldrich, of South Carolina. of
: the Court of Common Pleas and Gen
eral Sessions. 1t appears that about
three weeks age, when opening Court
at Edgefield. Judge Aldrich announced
his purpose not TO obey General Can
by's jury order, which provided. that
Jurors should be drawn from lists Of
registered voters only. He made a
brief speech tothe members of the bar
and spectators assembled, in which he
declared Congress to be usuTping
body, and said that its attacks upon
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Of the Govern
ment and upon the United States and
the, estate Constitution, were fast re-
dueing the country to condition of
party vassalage.} Gen. Canby sent to
inquire if this speech was correctly re-
ported in the papers, and being answer
ed that it was, he issued an order on
the 10Th inst, ringing Judge Aldrieh
and empowering Tot. Orr to.preyide,
by new assignment, other judges for
doing the business in his District, con
sisting of five counties. Judge A1drich
was served with this order on the, morn
ing of the 21st inst, Just before open
ing of court at BarnweH. He took his
seat on the bench, ,showever, and made
another speech, denouncing the jury
order as a; yidation of the laws of
South Carolina, and saying that he
laid down his oficefo1'the present only,
in forced obedience to the command of
Gen. Candy. He said he felt no per-
sonal modification in being removed,
bnt it almost broke his heart to see
what indignity was put upon the State.
He thought, however, he saw the dawn
of better day, and believed the time
at hand when the people would be re-
lieved from the tyranny and insolence

How it was Done.

The DEMOCRATS, in Ohio, polled an
.unexpectedsam unprecedented large
vote this fall, and many, in view
of it, were lead to wonder where
they all came from: . But the truth
is beginning to come out, as will ap-
pear blythe following from the Ports
mouth Repu6licen:,
AS developments - made of facts
connected with u 9ction in the
First Ward, it becomes evident that
a most foul and wicked fraud was
perpetrated on the electors by tam
pering with the ballot box, Who
the guilty parties are is not yet so
evident. The fact that but 81 Union
votes were found, in the ballot box
convinced. all alike that there was
something wrong, and our friends
commenced an investigation, which
was intrnsted to Col H, E. Jones
The manner of procedure was, to as
certain who voted the Union ticket,
and, if possible, how many. More
than one hundred men have signed
their names to q paper declaring that
they voted the straight ticket, and it
is expected more will be found, for
it was a well known fact that there
had been an increase Of the Union
vote in the First Ward since last
year, when our ticket received -1Ol
votes.

Singular Fatalities.

Under this head the Portsmouth
Pepu6licon gives the following sad
account Of deaths doings, by dis
ease and accident, in one of the well
known families Of that city, to-wit:
The family of Capt. Jesse Hurd, of
this city, has met with singular fatal
tiles within the past two years. On
the 29.h of January, 1866, the Cap
tain was in command of the steamer
Missouri, plying between New Or,
leans and Louisville. On the boat
were Mrs. Hurd, the captains wife.
his sons Henry and Arthur young
men, and his son Lew, boy nine
years of age. Henry was a pilot and
Arthur was second clerk. At 3
O'Clock, on the morning Of the 30th.
while the boat was steaming quietly.
up the river, the passengers being
asleep in their state rooms, about
one hundred yards below the month
of Green river, she exploded. Mrs.
Hurd was asleep in her state room in
the texas, and was instantly killed.
by being struck er the head with
heavy piece of timber. Her body
was afterward recovered. Henry
Hurd had his leg broken, was scald
ed, received internal injuries, and
died within a week. The Captain,
Arthur and Lew. escaped with more
or less injuries. On the second day
of February, three days later, Capt
Jacob Hurd, a brother to Capt. Jesse,
and in command of the steamer w
r. Carter, was blown up on that i'll
fated boat, 65 miles above Vicksburg
on the Mississippi. and was instantly
killed. His body was never recover
ed. In August last, young Arthur
Hurd went 70 Goodrich's Landing,
on the Mississippi river, in the state
of Louisiana, and engaged in bust
ness with Mr.. Jno. Polaski, gentle
man but two or three years his
senior, and who had just been mar
ried up North and brought his wife
to the Landing. In the latter part
of September, Hurd, Polaski and his
wife were all stricken down with
swamp fever and unable to assist or
minister to each other. There were
no white persons in the vicinity, and
their only attendants were negroes
On the 2Sth of September Hurd and
Polaski died within an hour of each
other. The negroes buried them.
and the young widow recovered and
returned to her friends at the North.
Capt. Jesse Hurd learned of the
death Of Arthur on the Both of Sep
tember, and though unweH at the
time, Immediately vent south for his
remains. He returned With them
and young Arthur was buried in
Evergreen cemetry, at Portsmouth,
on the l5th inst. Capt. Jesse Hurd
was, immedisteiy after the funeral,
taken seriously i'll, and died on the
22d inst. Two sons of the family
are the only survivors-Jas, Hurd, 2
young man employed in the Nss@
service of the United States, at /
Mound City, and Lew the little boy
before named.

Gov. BrownloW Elected Senator.

The Legislature of Tennessee, in
session at Nashville, on the 23d inst,
elected Gov. BRowNLow L. S. Sena
tor, for the term of six years from
the 4th of March, 1869, in place of
MIR. PATTERSON, the present incum,
bent, and son-Iu-law of President
johnson. In speaking of Governor
BRowNLow' election, the Cincinnati
Gazette very truthfully says:
No one in the country bas been
Sreer to the cause of the Union than
Coy. Brownlow, and no one could
have been more successful in putin 2
the Government of the State of Ten
nessee into loyal hands For his de.
votion to the cause of loyalty; for the
sacrifices that he suffered for adhe
renee to principles; for the efficient
service he rendered as Chief Magis
krate Of Tennessee, he is to be ap-
plauded. and we are glad that the
Legislature h0nored him with seat
in the Senate of the United States
We may be sure he will never betray
She confidence placed in him by the
people. No one need put himself to
the tEonble to inquire how he will
vote on &ny question affecting the
principles of the Union party.
1t is objected to him by many that
his style is not the most refined
But he has loyal heart and an iron
will to do what he believes to be
right. With all his roughness it
would have been well for the nation
if he had been elected Vice Presi-
dent in place of Andy Johnson
Honest men in high places, in these
days, are valuable, even though
somewhat deficient in polish.

re- The Richmond ENQUIRER anc

% The Richmond Enquirer and
Er0niner, in one of its late issues,
has an article on "Our duty to the
Northern Democracy" in which it
is argued that the South must give
that party its "moral support" be
cause, it says, that t'party stands
ready to grant us at least half of
what the war was fought about. "
That is the way Northern Democracy
is looked upon by the rebels of the
South. They ARE fighting for the
same things the rebels fought for.
Is ii any wonder, under such circum-
stances, that shouts go up for Davis
and Morgan, from the rebels, when
they hear of democratic victories?"
Gallipolis journal. [volume] (Gallipolis, Ohio) 1837-1919, 1867-10-31

SF Gen. HAYES, our Governor
elect, visited Fremont, O few days
since, and while there was serenaded
and made speech. We make the
following extract from it:
The Democracy having secured a
majority in the next Legislature, had,
in one sense, got larger elephant
than they knew what to do with.
They had talked taxation Of United
States bonds; would they show them
selves to be in favor of such sheme?
Never. 1t could not be successful.
They had made much cry of taxa
ton: 'the people were burdened."
Taxation could not be much lessen
ed. Then there was a United States
Senator to elect; but there came the
rub. What would they do? The
victory Of the campaign was a Val
landigham victory. He wanted the
place; SO did Thurman; so did Pen
.dleton. Here was house divided.
Union men had only to stand back
and look at the beautiful fight. The
United States Senator could not take
his seat until the 4th of March, 1869;
then the Republicans would probably
have elected and installed their Presi-
dent, U. s. Grant Ifnot him; Sheri
dan or Thomas; but the prospect
was Grant. He was, in fact, already
nominated, though no convention
had been held. Cheers for Grant.
Well, what would be the value of a
United States Senator in such a
Senate as the loyal States of the
Union would send up, with q. S.
Grant as Chief Magistrate? There
was really no great loss. Then the
Union men of Ohio were placed in a
position to be all united more firmly
than ever before. They had not
given up single principle, or gone
back on a plank of their platform.
