ueation: Language fails me to express the
emotions Of my heart at this moment. l
thank you for tho honor you have done me.
| thank you ortho approval Of my convic-
tions, my character and my conduct: but,
gentlemen, thank you still more because
this compliment comes from tho tried, the
true, and the triumphant Democracy Of my
own native State-a Democracy which by
i:s patient aud devoted courage, its heroic
effort, and It's answering fidelity to sound
principle, has achieved within the last year
an unparalleled success, and in the short
space Of Eve years, has brought US up from
minority Of hundred thousand to, q ma
jority in the State. The issues that were
presented last year were we'll worthy Of the
struggle. They were to sustain the snpre.
macy Of the white race, and prevent the
Africanization Of the States Of the Union,
and the protection Of our own State Of Ohio
from the hybridation. They were TO raise
from the shoulders Of On over.taxed and op-
pressed people the burdcns about TO bc put
on them, and to lead them into new career
Of prosperity; and these same issues arc to
be settled In the coming contest, not only IN
our own State, but in tho whole, country,
And If the people Of, Ohio will do their
duty as they have iu the past, whoever shall
be selected as the standard.bearer Of the
Democracy will have the pleasure and honor
Of placing them in victory and power in the
seats Of Naticuai power.
SHERMAN WoN'r CRY.-Gen. Grant
cannot consent to become the candidate of
the Radicals without losing the respect Of
his best friends. The fact that ha is being
claimed as in sympathy with them has al.
ready lessensd the regard Of many for him.
Multitudcs still Ysfuss to believe that he will
permit himself to be made tool Of the
fanatics in Congress, and the prevailing SEN
timent is, that he could not possible be elect
ed on Radical platform. A Washington
correspondent relates significant little in
cident which occurred day or two since.-
he says: ls.,... . ,t.r,
Hs an illustration of the change Of senti.
ment, ! have only to record recent incident.
1t was the occasion Of an interview between
conservative senator and Gen. Sherman.
when the former remarked: ...... .r
General Grant is going to be the candi-
date Of the Radicals, and in that case he
will be beaton.' r
TO which the General responded: a
"Aud in that case shall not weep,
We are, Of course to infer that this remark
was not made in any split Of envy or un.
kindness towards General Grant, hut only
to convey the idea that his defeat as TIE
Radical champion would not be cause for
very profound emotion. .E

tSr The election of Hon. A. G.. THUR.
MAN, Of Ohio, to the U. s. Senate, will be
hailed with joy over the land. Never in
the history Of this country was there q mo.
ment of time more crowded with danger to
cur institutions and liberty, under the rule
Of mad Congress. The appearance apon
the public stage Of man like Judge FHUR-
MAN, gives increased confidence to all men
of steady purpose and patriotic inclination.
We feel confident he will fulfill his mission
