Some one in the Journal writes in favor
of nominating GALLOWAY for Governor,
because his peculiar, captivating speeches
were heard, during the war, all over the
State. The writer then adds:
There are others that have handsomer
faces, but his is the face the people like to
see. If the Convention will give us Gallo
way the State will be thoroughly aroused
and our utmost strength put forth"
/ We go in for the " thorough arousing,' -
and hence GALLowAY's is the face We would
like to see at the head of the Negro Suf-
frage Ticket. After the election there
would be more of it, for it will be as long
as the moral law, and as respondent as that

The Negro Suffrageites of Muskingum
county instructed their delegates to the
10Th of June State Convention of that par
ty, to place in nomination s. r. HosMER
of GAINESVILLE, for Member of the Board oi
Public Works.
Hereupon some indignant negrophobist
writes to the Morning Journal denouncing
HosMER as . Democrat, and protesting
against his nomination. The Zanesuillt
Courier takes exception to this, and pro-
nopnces the assertion of HosMER's enemy
as false, and is ready to pledge itself that
the aforesaid is worthy the entire conf
dence of the Republican party.
AS a general rule, to which there is no
exceptions the party of which he is lead
ing and stirring light, the word of the
Courier man is not considered good evil
dence, and hence, we find the following in
the yoearndk of this morning: rtTTT y &
"The following telegram was received

This was intended to be conclusive, but
it is not. Immediately after the reelection
of LINCOLN, few wsore-headed Democrats,
who had been lured into the Abolition par
ty by the hope of Office, but were. disap-
pointed, set about the work of re-organ-
izing the Democratic party, as the only
means of hurling the Abolitionists from
power. An organization was got up-cir-

Republican organizations were (tell it not

Judge of Muskingum county. In the whole
State, but these two could be found will
ing to serve on the National Central Com
mittee for Ohio as representative men of
the party of old hacks who were to give
life and vitality to the rejuvenated De-
mocracy,, and to add to its moral force, as
the phosphorescent gleem from rotten
mackerel would add to the light of day or
an infusion of garlic aid the perfume of the
violet.
We state these facts merely as matter of
history, not to prevent the Republicans, So
called, from having candidate. HosMER,
although, while protesting to be Republi-

snake good enough MORGAN until after

Hon. FRANK II. HURD, Democratic candi-
date for Attorney General, addressed the
Democracy of Hancock county at Findlay,
on the Sth of June.
We merely inquire, in connection with
the above paragraph, whether it be possible
to have some good Democratic orators adj
dress our people at some day soon? Judge
Thurman has made one or two speeches,
Mr.. Hurd spoke at Findlay, last week, and,
through many portions of the State, the
Democrats seem to be fairly alive. How is
it in the counties of Washington, Morgan,
Noble, Meigs, Athens, Vinton, Jackson,
Gallia and Lawrence? But-not to stake
off too much ground-how are we doing in
this county ?-AGriettG Times.
That is the question Bro. HooD-how
are you doing in Washington county ?
which ought to be good for two Demo-
cratic members of the Legislature. We
hear of rapid and thorough organization
throughout most of the entire State, but
have not heard that it has extended to the
county of Washington. How is it, Bro.
HOOP?

WHEN the deserters and draft sneaks
muster up sufficient courage to come home
again, the Democratic vote of old Ashta-
bula will be increased in the exact ratio of
the number SO returniDg.-Jownal.
If this is the case, why did Senator KEEL
LoGG and his negro suffrage colleague from
Ashtabula plead so strongly in the last
Legislature against the disqualification of
.deserters and draft sneaks, excusing the
latter on the ground that they were young
men of the most respectable families, who
were urged to take a trip to Canada by their
fond mothers. Neither of these gentlemen
were in favor of Democrats voting if they
could prevent it. Besides this, the num-
Der of votes these gentlemen said would be
lost to negro suffrage in Ashtabula county
by the disqualification of draft sneaks and
d d,serters, would nearly double the entire
Democratic vote in Ashtabula county.

A Candidate for Supreme Judge
or Attorney General or any thing
Else.
During the saturnalia of the Abolition
party, in power in Ohio, the selection OF
small men for large offices has started the
breed of one-horse politicians all agog for
paying places. Asa specimen BRICK" Ad-
jutant General CowAN is trying his best to
be the nominee for Governor. How such
men are made great, we have evidence be-
fore us in letter which has been handed
US, directed to leading Republican official
in this city, and written by one of the Off
GERS of the late Legislature:
| = p "FINDLAY, o., May 1, 1867.
| 9DEAR TAYLOR: I send you a
little sketch of General Walker, but you
can elaborate and improve to suit your
taste, the facts. The General expresses in
difference, between the Judgeship and At
torney Generalship. We must consult the
openings. We ought to be able to NOM
| mate him for the Judgeship with rush.
"We have word from numerous points,
Cincinnati Included, all favorable. Let me
hear from you soon again, and we will
keep the matter moving until the time
comes.
Truly yours, &C.. = ="
The sketch can improve the facts to suit
the taste OF the person who is to write the
biography. e., he can make the facts to
suit the case. Like the man who applied to
General JACKSON for the post of Minister
to England or seat in the Cabinet, finally
begged of the old General pair of his
boots, General WALKER is Indifferent
whether he takes the Supreme Judgeship
or Is nominated for Attorney General
Failing in these, we suppose he will take
anything else he can get. All loyal men
and pretended patriots like General WALK
ER are self-sacrificing, provided they can
get office by it. . -
| We trust "Dear TA9LoRn will attend 10
the case. He is well paid by the StaUe to
take care of the interests of soldiers. -

OUR WEST INDIA INVESTMENT.

The reports concerning the sale OIL
the Danish West India possessions to
the United States IA no longer be
treated as rumors. Dispatches from
Copenhagen have lately given the terms
of the proposed sale, and the statement
has been semi-oficially corroborated by
the authorities in Washington. 1t ap-
pears from the present state Of the ne
gotiations, that the United States Gov
eminent is to pay seven and n half mil
lions dollars in gold for the islands oil
Santa Cruz, St. Thomas and st. John,
provided that a majority of the people
ON the said islands are satisfied with
the transfer. An agent was recently
dispatched to the islands by our Govern
ment, with the object Of learning the
feeling of the people concerning the
latter point. If they are favorably in
cliued toward the ~changc-and it is be-
lieved they ars-the sale will probably
be consummated.
In view of the probability of this new
addition to the domain Of the United
States, it is q matter of interest to know
just what we are to get MS u c%onsidera-
ton for the seven and a half millions
| dollars. It is evident, in the first place,
that the real estate investment in this
case will not bring so large a return In
territorial area as the seven millions
with which we bought Alaska. In the
latter speculation we got 37l,s75 square
miles of territory-in the three Danish
islands constituting the proposed pur-
chase, VIC get an area of ITO square
miles.
Santa Cruz, or Saint Croix, is the
largest of the islands in question. It is
situated sixty-6ve miles southwest from
Porto Rico, and has u population of
about $1,000. Its extreme length is
twenty miles, and its extreme breadth
five miles. The soil is very fertile, its
chief production being sugar cane.
| Saint Thomas, the second in rank, lies
t~hir,y-eight miles cast from Porto Rico,
has an area of twenty-four square miles,
and a population of about $4,000. The
surface of Saint Thomas is generally
mountainous, and only $500 acres are
under cultivation. Its chief value con.
,is,s in its advantages us n commercial
depot. Saint John is a small island
lying directly east of St. Thomas V
ing about the same area US the latter
and a population of 10000. All OF these
islands are subject to frequent hurri-
canes and shocks of earthquake, render
ing them undesirable for residence.

EDITORIAL TALENT.-In every American
community there is a vast surplus Of editorial
talent that is condemned to perish in OBJ
security, and never illustrate itself IN any
journalistic stage. The Pacific coast is no
exception to this rule. Every third man you
meet in the streets Of any city, town or vii
lage of California and the adjacent States
and Territories holds himself fully compe-
tent to edit a newspaper, has no doubt Of it
whatever, and cherishcs the illusion in sim
pie good faith. Among the educated classes
| this curious notion is universal. Every law.
yer believes it; every doctor believes it; and
every man who has received from any one
horse college a bit Of shecpskin authorizing
him TO write "B. A" after his name, is sure
of il,
