Mr. Buchanan's funeral was the most
imposing ceremony ever witnessed in this

mile and a half. Delegations from New

persons were in the procession. The
Masons assisted throughout the ceremony,
and clergymen Of all denominations were
at the grave. The funeral service was by
Rev. DR.. Nevin.
Business was universally suspended
The people crowded the streets through
which the cortcge passed to Woodward
Hill Cemetery, where the remains were
deposited, according to the request Of Mr..

tomb bearing the following inscription:

Belongs to the most Corrupt Party
that ever Existed.


A few days ago Republican remarked
to his Democratic heighbor, that he GER
tainly, from what he had been able to as
certain, belonged to the most corrupt party
that had ever existed. By reference to
DoN PIATT's letter, which we this morn
ing reproduce from the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, this Republican will see that he is not
alone il this opinion. Don PIATT has been
one of the most active and untiring of Re-
publicans, and none has been more inde-
cent in the abuse of leading Democrats
than he. He is not the man to stand on
trifles in the matter of official cor
ruption, and If it did not amount to
too much he would not make it a cause
for railing accusation; but the Republican
party having organized corruption on a
gigantic scale, he feels called upon to cry
aloud and spare not. People may rail at
the party as much as they please tor its au-
dacious proficiency and corruption-for
its disregard of all that is beneficent in
Government-to the leaders it will seem as
good joke if the people shall vote to keep
them in power. To right this wroDg-to
purge the party of its corruption-the Re-
publican party must be voted out of power.
There should be no further dalliance with
corruption.

For Congress-, .IOhn III. Thomas, I
Clarke County.

Subject to the decision of the Democratic Con-
uention Of the 7h Congressional District.
ain naming Mr.. Thomas, as our candi-
date for Congress, we only give express
sion to what we believe to be the unani- |
nous choice of the Democracy of this
county.
In common with our fellow Democrats
OF Clarke county, we believe the gentle
man whose name Is here presented, to be
the strongest and best man for the office in
question that can be found in the, District
and our object in bringing him before the
Democracy at this early day, is, that ample
opportunity may be had for inquiring into,
and canvassing his merits and qualifica-
tions.
II our friends in the other counties of the
District wish to know who is John III.
Thomas, and what are his qualifications for
| seat in Congress? the Democracy of Clarke
county, with one accord, will tell them that
he is firm, consistent Democrat, an edu-
| Gated lawyer, successful business man, an
intelligent and affable gentleman, whose
life ia this community has thus far been
without stain or reproach of any kind; and
that he is 8 liberal and public spirited citi-
zen, who possesses the confidence OF, and is
| universally popular with, all classes and
conditions of people irrespective of party.
We are satisfied that in this county Mr..
| Thomas can get several hundred more
| NOJtS Guhl any JULIET Illdu GtlC democrats
can nominate, and we hope and trust that
for the good of the cause he may be the
choice of the London Convention"
We find the above in the Springfield
Transcript of last week. Although the
announcement is somewhat premature, it
is perhaps well enough to cast about for
a cadidate to succeed Mr.. Shellabarger.-
We want no trucking politician as
our candidate for Congress in the
the approaching campaign. We want man
whose interests are identical with the people
"a practical man of business, who has the
ability TO comprehend the true wants and
interests of his constituents, and the hon.
esty and courage to advocate them at all
times and under all circumstances. Such a
man we are fully convinced, is Mr..
Thomas. He is gentleman of ac-
knowledged personal popularity at
home. By careful management of his
business as manufacturer, aided by his
energy and unspoGted integrity, he has
within few years amassed handsome
competence. Although an unwavering
Democrat he was last Spring one of the
two Councilmen elected in the Fourth
/ Ward of Springfield, which gave about one
hundred Republican majority. 1t is alto
esther likely that before the nomination
for Congressman is made, other names will
be proposed in connection with the Office,
but we doubt if any gentleman can be
found in the District possessing superior
claims to the position over those of John
II. Thomas, Esq, of Springfield Madison
County Democrat.

WanttoT Trya Change.

A gentleman who had spent five weeks
in travelling over five adjoining counties,
mingling with the people, several days ago
informed us that no person who has not
been among the people can form an ade-
quate idea as to the changes that are going
on politically. From his conversations and
observation, he ascertained that the feeling
is taking hold on the minds of Republicans
that the Government has not been for sew
eral years properly administered, and that
the only hope for reformation lies in vot-
ing the Republican party out of power.
Many of them say, that in 1864, they were
asked to continue the Republican party in
power, that the war should quickly be
brought to an end on the basis of a main
tanned Union; that although the war ter
minated three years ago, practically there
is no Union that ten States are held and
ruled by the military as though they were
territory conquered from foreign Gov
ernment; that the whole legisla-
tion in Congress by the Repub-
lican party has been directed to making a
voter out of the Negro; that nothing has
been done to lessen the taxes, and to lift
the country out of its depressed condition
into condition of prosperity. They re-
alize that there is something radically
wrong, and with this realization comes the
other realization that there must be q
change, and that the only way to effectuate
the change is through dismissal of the
Republican party from power. To bring
about a reformationthere must be change
sooner or later, and the sooner it is made
the better it will be for the whole country.

Maine for PendIeton.

that the Belfast Republican Jou, nal, having

A gentleman who has spent some time in

will be the Democratic nominee for Presi-
dent, and Governor ENGLISH, of Connecti-
cut, the nominee for Vice President. This
will make strong ticket.
