Col S. N. Yeoman, of this place
was nominated at the Senatoria
convention at Morrow, on Saturday
last, as the Union candidate fol
Senator for the District composed
of the counties of Greene, Clinton
and Fayette. The nomination was
made by acclamation.
Col, Yeoman served three years
in the Goth Ohio Regiment,
and did good service for his coun-
try, as every soldierin his command
will testify; and no officer, perhaps,
has the friendship or esteem of his
soldiers to a greater degree than
Col, YeomNn, and they will cheer
fully testify their sincere respect for
their Colonel, by giving him their
votes on the second Tuesday in Oc-
toher, The Colonel is q sound and
unainching Union MANA candi-

whether soldier or civilian, can vote,
with the hest of assurance that he
will serve the best interests Of his
constituents as Senator, as well as
he did his country in the military
struggle for its life and honor,
After the nomination, Col, Yeo
man was called ON and addressed
the Convention in a spirited speecl
which those who were present say
was well received, and the Conven
ton adjourned, with q determination
to 60 home and labor for the elec

OF the Union ticket.

The Reconstructed.

Among those following General
Longstreet and jeff, Thompson,
who have been converted to the Re
publican mode of reconstruction we
find the name of the Hon. w. L..
Goggin of Virginia. 1t will be re-
membered that he was a candidate
for Governor against John Letcher
in the last campaign before the war
He was not one Of the seed rebels,
but when his State seeded he enter
ed upon the work of rebellion with
a vigor, and struggled to the last
But now, very sensibly, he has
adapted himself to the new condi-
ton of things. These conversions
are being made almost daily in the
South, and greatly to the chagrin
of their Northern partizans, the
most of them are advocates of ne
gro suffrage. They are rapidly be-
ing taught that their salvation can
be found nowhere but in the ranks
Of that great Union party which for
years they combined to destroy;
but which finally subdued them. Mr..
Goggin says they are a conquered
people, and can't expect to have a
choice of measures, or the selection
of men for public positions, exactly
upon their own terms, and in their
own way. They must learn to re-
alize their true condition. This is
true, and when they have learned
this the work Of reconstruction is
about completed, But we are ex-
ceedingly happy to see these veter-
an rebels wheeling into line so rap
idly. The bravest soldiers South
as well as North are taking theirpo-
sition in the Republican ranks.
The large numbers who heretofore
have been ready at any time to hang
a Republican but are now seeking
place in the Republican party, is ev-
idence enough that the party is
gaining strength in the South not
withstanding all Democratic sayings
to the contrary. The day is not
far distant when this party will
have full control Of the Southern
States. Columbus Republic.

- Hon. Dan. Mace, for many
years n prominent man, and form.
erly a member of Congress from In
diana, committed suicide at his resi-
dence in Lafayette, last week, He
was Postmaster at that place at t G
time he committed the horrible act.
He had given evidence of an un-
sound mind, on the subject Of self
destruction, at times, ever since he
was taken with paralysis, at Wash
ington City, a couple of years
since.
Major Mace, as he used to be
called, was a native of Ross county,
in this State. We can rccollect
when he was a prominent leader in
Che Democratic party in Indiana, but
he went with Mr.. Douglas against
forcing Kansas into the Union as a
slave State, against her will, and has
ever since acted with tho Repu ]!

We find the following editorial
article in the Register of this week /;
Is IT So2-Itis said that Col. KERR, the
nominee of the Republican party for Rep
resentNtive for this County, is an out-and-
out radical, negro suffrage advocate. and
that If the proposition to amend the Con-
stltution of the State of Ohio giving ne
groes the right to vote, fails this fall, he
UiH vOte, if elected, for negro suffrage
amendment to the Constitution of the UNI
ted States, giving negroes the right to vote
in all the States. Those Republicans who
are opposed TO negro suffrage, had better
be certain in regard TO Col. XMAS opin-
ions before they vote for him for Reprosen-
tStive.
1t may be expected that the evil
genius who presides over the col
umns of the Register in thes place,
will use every low means that he is
capabls of, without compunctions Of
conscience, to defeat Col, KERR, q
every other candidate on the un-
ion nominated ticket; and we
PUBLISH the above extract only to
show our union friends what kind
Of unscrupulous tools they have to
meet in this contest. The people of
this county, however, know Col,
KERR, and they know that he will
never misrepresent them on any
question where their views Il wish
es are as fully made known as they
will be this Fall, on the question of
the amendment of our Constitu-
ton; they know their candidate,
they have trusted him heretofore
and he has never betrayed them, and
the editor Of the Register may as
well direct his feeble batteries at the
moon, as at an old, tried public ser
want like Col Kerr, Your puny ef-
forts in that direction, Mr. Gould,
will only recoil and knock their all
thor over in his own filth.

A nnsa Hlnndar.

The Register of this place last
week, utters the following slandeI
upon the people. 1t says;
'The Industrious producing por,
ton Of our citizens are tired ofpay-
ing taxes with no diminution of the
public debt, and the matter may as
well be looked in the face now as at
any other time, and bondholders
understand that repulidtion is rap
idly taking possession of the minds
Of the people as adernier resort for
relief from q taxation which cannot
much longer. be endured"
That repudiation of our public
debt-a debt incurred to save the
Government from being destroyed
BY rebels and traitors, is TAX
ing possession of the mind0 of the
people, is simply a base SANDER.
No honest man-no man who loves
his country and its honor, ever
thinks of repudiating our public
debt If there is any body who de-
sires reputation, it is rebels and
traitors, and their sympathizers (;
those who, when the very life Of
our country was in peril, said mot
another man nor another dollar to
carry on the war for the Union"
it is these who were opposed to de-
Tending the Government those who
opposed the volunteering and draft
ing of men; those who run off to
Canada to avoid fighting rebels with
whom they sympathized; those
whose faces wore gloomy appear
ance whenever the good news of a
glorious Union victory sped across
the telegraphic wires, and smiled
joyously when defeat came upon
our armies, and tauntingly and ex-
ultingly said, 1--WE told you you
could not whip the South This
is the only class of men whose
minds rep@diation is rapidly taking
possession of.
Fayette County herald. [volume] (Washington [Washington Court House], Fayette County, O. [Ohio]) 1860-1???, 1867-08-01

The candidates on the Union
ticket of this county have nothing
to exl ect from our neighbor Of the
Register but SANDER and misrepre-
sentation. That party cannot sue
coed in this county or in this State,
unless they can make the people be-
lieve lie; for by fair dealing they
know they must be defeated. We
warn our political friends now that
the Register is not authorized to
speak for any one of the Union can
didates, or to give their sentiments
on questions involved in the pres
ent election; it is not a constitut ed
expounder Of the opinions and SEN
timents Of single candidate nomi'
mated at the Union primary election
in this county; and when it as
sumes, as it did last week, to give
the positions of Col, S. N. YeOman,
our candidate for Senator, and B.
+. Thomas, our candidate for coun'
ty Commissioner, on the constitu-
tional amendment, it is guilty Of
misrepresenting these gentlemen.
They are both in favor of the amend
ment, or they are greatly mistaken
by their true political friends. We
have frequently heard Col Yeoman,
before his name was announced as
a candidate before the primary cleo
ton and since, express himself un-
equivocally in favor Of the amend
ment; to use his own language, he
said, "we must meet the question
squarely aud fairly and we believe
that all the candidates on our ticket
are disposed to eight it out on
that line" although there are good
Union men who, while they will
vote for the several candidates, may
not feel It their duty to vote for the
amendment. That is aquestion up
on which they can vote separately.
The Democrats can do the same
thing, and probably many Of them
will do so.

of The milk Of human kindness is needed in
order that he might be cleared Of the impu-
tation Of dishonesty. ItWould seem that al
his instructions were most pOinediy directed
against a compromise without the consent of
MIR. Dudley and Mr.. Adams, and, above all,
nothing was to be allowed which would give
even a quasi recognition to the so-called
agents of the Confederate States. In reck-
less defiance of these special orders, he con
cluded a private agreement with Frazer,
Trenholm & Co., which not only recognized
the agents, but also gives millions of dollars
worth Of property into their hands. His
letter, expressive Of deep regret, seems to us
hypocritical, unless we can accuse Mr.. Morse
OF the most arrant stupidity. Under any
circumstances, he has demonstrated his lack
of capacity to represent our nation at st.
Helena's, much less aC London.

Freedom of Worship at Rome.

FIeeuOm Oh WOiSntp at Rome,
SOME weeks since it was announced in our
foreign files that the Pope had forbidden the
continuance Of Protestant worship at the
American chapel. We were 10th, at the time,
to believe that his Holiness should so far
forget the age in which we live, and imagine
himself in the fifteenth instead OF the nine
teenth century. It would seem, however
that there can be little doubt but that such
decree has gone forth. The proposed action
Of the Government to sever our diplomatic
relations with the Pontiflcal States Is one
which we deem most proper. In the
withdrawal of the Embassy we act only
up to the immortal principles Of our Con-
stitution, Freedom to worship God is a
right guaranteed to every man. If Pro-
testaut Government forbade the Roman CathO-
lie religion, we would advocate the same
action as we do now. Every American clti-
zen has a right to perfect liberty of con-
science, and we hold the prohibition of wor-
ship in the American chapel to be an out
rageous act of tyranny, to which our Gov
ernment should not tamely submit,

Another Veto.

WE must give the President the credit OF
improving in one respect-his vetoes are be-
coming brief Perhaps, however, that is
owing to the fact that they are becoming 80
numerous,
Tie one we chronicle to-day relates to the
admission of Nebraska as a STATE. The
chief objection urged against the bill is its
provision that the State shall not exclude
citizens from civil or political rights on
account OF color or race, The SHOW of argu-
ment in this case is that it destroys the
equality" of the States. We remember
when Just the same argument was used
against resisting the admission Of new slave
States. The privilege Of oppression is such
a dear one, that it would destroy any States
equality to be deprived of it, We fail to feel
the force of any such argument as this. On
the contrary, we hope to see the rule made
invariable that no new State shall be ad-
mitted to the Union which distranchises any
Of its citizens on account Of color or race.
