Election Tickets.

The act to authorize the election of an
additional Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas In this District provides that the first
election for such Judge shall be held on the
first Monday in April next, and that the
election shall be conducted and the returns
thereof made as required by law In case OF
the election of other Judges of the Court
of Common Pleas. The name of the cam
didate for additional Judge should, there
fore, be placed on the same ticket with the
names OF the candidates for township Off
GERS. In order that this may be done, the
Democrats of each township in the county,
where they have not done SO already
should Immediately nominate their candi-
dates for township officers, and forward a
list of them to GEORGE w. MEEKER, ESQ.,,
as soon as possible, so that he can have the
tickets printed in proper form and sent out
before the election. These lists ought to
be forwarded, If possible, by next Thurs
day. The judicial office thae is to
be filled is an important one, and
full vote ought to be cast for
JOSEPH OLDs, Esq., the Democratic NOM
inee, who is well qualified to discharge the
duties of the position, and Is in all respects
entitled to strong vote.

would not have 1t. As Mr.. Olds has
been nominated by the dominant party
In the district and as he will not be .
Democratic or Republican Judge, in q
political sense, after no is elected, but Is to
administer justice to all our people, l pro.
pose to vote for him. and i recommend
all my friends to do likewise. Let us max,
the nomination unanimous, and let the mi.
nority In the district all vote for Mr. Olis

carrying the election of judges into tn,

HOUSE E..
MORNING SESSION.

Prayer by Rev. Mr.. Byers.
S. B. No. 81, Mr.. .KESSLER-To authorize
city councils of cities of the first class, hav-
ing population ofOver one hundred thou
sand inhabitants, to issue bond for water
works purposes, was read the third time.
Mr.. WOLF explained the bill The bill
proposes to authorize loan of $l50, 900 at
$40 per cent. interest, for which bonds
are 20 be issued. He said large number
OF the people OF Cincinnati, on the heights.
were almost destitute of good water, and
this bill proposes to relieve that destitu-
ton.
Mr.. ACKER would not vote for greater
interest than 6per cent.
Mr.. JEWErT said that by general law
the people were limited to per cent. inter-
est. He could not consent to authorize
municipal corporations throughout the
State to pay greater interest; for it would
encourage monied men to invest their funds
to too great an extent In such enterprises,
while business men can only get money for
six per cent, and thus have their business
crippled. 1t was doubtless true that the
water privileges spoken of were necessary;
and If the proper rate of interest could be
fixed, he would cheerfully vote for the
bill.
Mr.. LEETE inquired whether it would
not be better for the people on the hills to
use cisterns. .s- ss5a;
Mr.. WOLF thought when the Lord lets

Look to Wasl,ington!

At half-past twelve to-day, the Impeach-
ment trial of President JOHNSON is to be
resumed. BUTLER Is announced as intend
ing to open with five hours speech, which
is designed to exhaust everything and eve-
rybody. 1t is the intention of the Radi-
Gals to Impeach the President with the
least imaginable delay, they believing that
they have the power to vote it through.
Another event Is to transpire this morn
ing. General HANCOCK has been assigned,
by the President, to the Military Depart
ment OF the Atlantic, with Headquarters at
Washington City. He is expected to take
command to-day. It Is stated, on the al
legged authority of General GRANT, that
as soon as General HANCOCK shall have as
sumed command, General GORDON GRAN
GER will be assigned, by the Presi-
dent, to the command of the WASH
ington District, In place of General
EMORY. These two officers, at least,
are in hearty accord with the Presi-
dent. Precisely what these military
changes, pending the Impeachment trial,
mean, is matter for conjecture. 1t may
mean that the President does not intend to
vacate the Presidential chair inasmuch as
a Radical set of conspirators tagainst the
Constitution and the Union, in caucus,
decide that their political necessity requires
that he should do 80 before the legal ex-
piration OF his term OF Office. STANTON
having set the example of surrounding
himself with troops forcibly to resist IL
need be, his removal from office. bv
his superior officer, why should not
the President OF the United States act
upon this precedent, and surround him
self with ample troops and trusty
officers to enable him to serve out the
remnant of his Presidential term? 1t is
one thing to convict a man; 1t is an anoth-
er thing to enforce the conviction. This
need not lead to trouble, unless the Radi-
cal conspHators shall undertake to employ
force to put into execution their diaboli-
cal caucus decree. In that event the result
cannot be readily predicted. 10 7.

OecItnnttOn of am Empty Honor.
Republicans OF Columbus, acting in the
capacity OF City and Township Conven-
ton, nominated w. Fl. SMITH, ESQ, OF
London, as candidate for Judge, in oppo-
sitlon to JOSEPH OLDs, Esq. In card to
the Ohio State Journal, Mr.. SMITH declines
this honor, and asks his friends to SUPPORT
Mr.. OLDs, having In him faith that he will
mike an able and impartial Judge. Else
where we publish Mr.. SMITHS card of dec.
llnation.
Although there is a likelihood that Mr..
OLDs will have no opposition, yet Demo.
Gratis should not thereby be lulled into in
difference and abstain from going to the
polls next Monday In consequence. Mr..
OLDs is entitled to the full vote of the party,
His unfaltering fidelity to the party, and
his great qualifications for the office,
which are conceded by his political adver-
saries, are considerations of such force as
should stimulate every Democrat In the
county and district to do his utmost to Sc
cure for him the largest vote possible,

Thinking, perhaps, your many read

Of newsfrom Old Muskingum touching
the recent unprecedented ''hlghD indulged
In by the "Elk's Eye" write.
You are no doubt aware that for the past
week we have had second deluge In this
section, which has resulted In our usually
quiet river "going on bust"
The river tonight is higher than at any
time In the memory Of the ''oldest inhab.-
tant," having risen to the second story of
Cassel's Mill, ,.causing loss to him of from
1900 to 1000 bushels of wheat, besides other
grain which they were unable to get out.
On the west side of the river Mlller's saw
mill and large number OF logs, besides a
great quantity of sawed lumber, was wash
ed away by the angry flood. Mr.. John Nc
Cormack's carriage factory, with large
stock of finished work, was taken entirely
away, but by almost superhuman efforts
was overhauled and now lies anchored at
Mr.. Andrew Carter's, two and half miles
below the city. -
The residence of Mr.. Shrach, lock-tender,
was carried away, and sad to relate. his
eldest daughter, an Interesting and estem-
able young lady of about twenty years,
perished. She was loved and respected by
all who had the pleasure Of her acquain-
tance.
The grocery and provision store of Mr..
John Gormly, was overflowed to the Sec
ond story, and large amount of stock des-
troyed and damaged.
Our enterprising townsman, Jno. G. En-
glish, In going to his residence In Putnam
made narrow escape with his life. the
road being overfowed at the bridge and
Mr.. E. missed the bridge, and with his
horse and carriage was carried consider
able distance down the stream, but was
rescued at great risk by John Wallace and
Robert Mitchell. Our city, at this hour, is
all excitement, fire bells are ringing, and
the call Is ito the bottom" the floods have
broken over the levee and great fears are
entertained that hundreds of families will
be entirely ruined.
Will write you full particulars to-mor-
row. Yours hastily,

by "thelr vigilance are exciting and their

exhibited the same vigorous system of

applied to party wants, as the election In
April will have exhibited In the large cities
OF the State." ,iif 'ss od ira s.a.

A PAMPHLET, by Sir j. Y. Simpson, M.

eases. has commanded some attention In
England. He points first to the fact that
the smallpox, for instance, still commits

no fewer than 51,04 persons died OF this
disorder in England; in 1864, the mortality
amounted to 9420.
