a Speck of War.

The whites in the South need have no
fear of the consequences of negro in
surreotion. They have used the bullet
once, and if God, in his Omnipotence,
points to that remedy, let them again
drop the ballot for the bullet and bright
bayonet. Christ forbid that such dis
asters may ceme upon us; the South is
not threatening to renew the war, but
the men who did the hardest fighting
for the Union are Democrats, and, if
the unhappy occasion should arrive they
will resume arms for the honor Of their
country and the rights of Constitution
al government. We deprecate the very
suggestion of such calamity; yet, to
what better result can the reckless
course of the Radical party leadf and,
if we are forced to choose between des'
potism and another war for our nation
ality, the patriotic people of the South,
and true Americans everywhere-will
not shrink from the dangerous problem.

A Tremendous AxnlRuc he,

About two weeks ago, tremendous
avalanche fell dawn Mont Blanc in Sa.
voy, and correspondent writing from
the Hotel du Mont Blanc at Chamouni
in regard to it says:
"My pen is too weak to describe the
commotion this mighty avalanche
created, every moment adding fuel to
its course, tossing mp clouds of spray
bringing with it pine trees, huge boul-
ders, rude bridges, and deserted chalersl
until it reached the pretty Cascade dH
Dard, when the noise was most deafen-
ing. The falling mass here, filling the
gully and gaining speed at every exer'
ton, left the course the stream usually
takes, and, tearing down pine trees,
opened an immense track aud overfewed
the meadows and gardens of the Hotel
Royal, destroying whole fields of barley
and potatoes and after spending its fury
for twenty minutes on meadow and
peasant land, this muddy mass formed
itself into a large lake, which will re-
main some time to be regarded by tour
lists as an event that is very rare in the
valley of Chamouni.

Tow nship Meetings.

The meetings to be held in the city
townships, tomorrow Saturday. even.
ing. between the hours of and o'clock,
are of much greater Importance to the
people than the county Convention,
which meets in this city Oh the 10Th.
The people who compose these Primary
Meetings will be called upon to name
the men into whose hands shall be com
mitted the financial interests of Ohio
county during the coming year. An
entire new Board of Supervisors is to
be chosen, new Board of Oyerseers of
the Poor, and more than One-third of
the Board of School Commissioners, are
to be selected. These three Boards have
the levying of all of our county and
township taxes. If the nominations
made for these positions tomorrow
night are wisely and judiciously made,
the election of all the nominees will be
assured. If mistakes are made in this
regard, these mistakes will probably be
corrected at the polls. This fact, it
would be well for aspirants and their
hackers to bear In mind.
1t is the duty of the Democrats of
every Ward and Township to attend
these meetings on Saturday evening;
and it is their further duty, considered
from every standpoint, to select for the
various responsible positions their
purest and in every way best men. No
man should be nominated out oi COM
pliment or because he wants the posi-
ton, unless he is the best man in the
Township that can be secured. Wise
Township nominations will greatly
strengthen our County and State tick
cts and will aid our cause.
The following officers are to be nomi-
mated in each Township: / Supervisor,
Inspector of Elections, l Oyersecr of
the Poor, l School Commissioner, l
Township Clerk, Township Treasurer,
9 Constables. In Clay Township there
are two School Commissioners to be
chosen.

The Cleveland Herald Admits the
Probability of Republican Defeat.

The Cleveland Herald (RadicaD OF
Tuesday, in an editorial says that "the
Republicans, lulled by over-confidence,
are now asleep. They, probably, will
wake up If they do not they are
beaten. Oh! for good scare; one that
would jerk our sanguine, inert Repub-
licans out of their boots"
This is rather severe. We think the
contemplation of the corruptions,
frauds and stealings of the Radicals is
a punishment severe enough, if they
have spark of conscience left. But to
mako the trembling, selfcondemned,
gro-worshipping, Constitution-break-
ing Radicals, stand and view their own
defeat and loss of power, barefooted.
We have little sympathy for them.
Let them wear their boots. They will
not have chance to steal enough to
buy another pair.

The Iudiau Reservations.

1t is said that some of the tribes of
the Indians at the West are to be re-
moved at once to their reservations,
and that peace is anticipated from these
movements. This is the old story. The
Indians will 60; but they will continue
to kill travellers, as they always have
done, because their is too slight pro-
lection from the scattered companies of
troops stationed on the frontiers. To
open the West cheaply and effectively,
there should be great increase OF force
at all the Indian forts. General Sher-
man will give his views on this subject
at no distant day. What will he say
of matters on the Upper Missouri =
Exchange.
This all sounds very plausible, but it
"wont hold water" To rid the North
west of these warlike, nomadic tribes,
(whoss number is greatly underestima-
ted, y that swarm over it, would require
as great an army as Bonaparte led
against Moscow, and, perhaps, result as
disastrously. The experiment has been
tried by the Government time and
again, and the consequences have al
ways been unnecessary loss of life, i'm
mense outlays of money, and, finally,
humiliating defeat. The millions and
millions of leagues of sandy arid soil
composing q great part of the North
west seem peculiarly adapted for the
home of the Indian race. Most Of this
land is certaialy unfit for tillage and
little of it could be made available for
grazing purposes save to the buffalo,
antelope and wild game accustomed to
browse upon the scanty heritage.
Our cavalry move laboriously over
these rough aud barren wastes, COM
pelled to pack rations for themselves
and forage for the cattle. The Indian
warrior, master of the wiriest horse
manship in the world, mounts his
tough and tireless mustang pony, scours
over the plain all day, living rudely,
upon a hunters fare, and grazing his
horse at night upon the open plain,
which is all the food these hardy ami
mails require. The prairie Indians are
superbly mounted, and, when too hotly
pressed, fly to those inaccessible can
ons in the bluffs, where it is impossi-
BILE for regular cavalry to pursue them
1t was lately proposed by some one
high in authority, to resign to the saw
ages this worthless Northwest, upon
which so much life and treasure has
been wasted through Radical misrule.
Let these useless tracts of desert be
given up to the Indians; it is not worth
the expense and trouble of warfare and
must always be an unpopular contest
with the people. But il has been the
source of an excuse for numerous Law
ish expenditures upon which Republi-
can parasites and plunderers might live.

The Courte. lie. Of the Campaign

The Hon. George Z. Pugh (Dem.) of
Ohio, said in his speech at the Demo
cratic ratification meeting at Cincin-
natl, on tho oath, ult.: 'If any man
has come hither tonight expecting to
hear ME abuse General Grant, / tell him
he is mistaken in the person. / don't
abuse him; shall give him the honor,
and the great honor ohich he deserres, and
if it were a question of giving honor,
the most devoted of his political sup.
perters should not be ahead Of me."-N.
Y. Tribune.
Just so. And in return for such CON-
pliments from leading Democrats, what
do the Radicals givef Filthy abuse,
vituperation and villainous lies about
the Democracy and their candidate.
Governor Seymour liar says Gree
ley; "Governor Seymour rebel" says
the Cincinnati Gazette; Governor Sey-
mour insane" yelps one of the lesser
lights ef loyalty in Cleveland. And SO

ACCORDING to an official statement
of the contingent expenses of the last
House of Representatives, the Sergeant
alarms appears to have received
s577.2O for arresting, bringing before
the House and discharging GIL men,
bers of Congress-" 1t was on call of
the House in order to make quorum.
The sergeant-at.Arms charged and was
allowed S. in every case. which makes
only s555. The additional S22.20 was
for mileage, on the assumption that he
travelled 222 miles to get the members
together. This is the way the peoples
money is squandered.

FIGURES can't lie-though the Radi
Gals willard figures prove that the
national debt has increased twenty
three millions of dollars since the first
of May, 1868. Had all the July interest,
the bonds of 1949, and all the Alaska
purchase money been brought into the
account, the increase of debt, or what
is the same thing, the lessened resources
of the Treasury, would have been seven
teen millions more. This must count
in the next months exhibit, and we
doubtless shall see q still further aug
,mentation of the public debt. Had
these amounts been paid in August as
due, the net amount of gold in the
Treasury, belonging to the Government,
would have been under fifty millions of
dollars. New, business men of all par
tios arc interested in stopping the in
crease of the public debt, and providing
means for it's gradual liquidation. This
cannot be done while the Radicals are
in power. They continue to pile up in
debtcdness, even in time of peace.
During June and July thirteen millions
of dollars were added to the uast weight
now resting upon the business and labor
of the country. How can a counter
movement be effectedi BY reducing
expenses. That is plain business
proposition which will not be denied.
But the Radicals do not look in that
direction. They keep large standing
army in time of peace, they feed negroes
at cost of fifteen millions per year;
they maintain costly government, ac-
cumulate debt, and dismiss all protests
with the declaration that national
debt is q national blessing" If people
are tired of debt and taxation they must
drive the Radicals from power. A change
will commence from that point and no
] other.

In this country, at the present time,
taxation by the Federal Government
alone, independent of State, county, and
municipal taxes, amounts to fully four
teen dollars a head-man, woman, and
child-for the whole population. Take
the case of laboring man with family
of FIVE or six children, aud it will be
seen that he pays about q hundred
dollars o year, which, on an average,
would be about seventh or an eighth
of his earnings. Five days he works for
himself and family. The proceeds OF
the sixth are clutched by the Govern
ment. Yet werkingmen are asked to
endorse this system Of the Radical
party.
