A Democratic exchange says that the party
"haye nominated DR.. Garcelon In the Second
District, and DR.. Ladd in the FOURTH" proba-
bly, supposing that they have the virtues Of
salts and SIENNA. DR.. Lsdd Is now engaged In
dispensing medicines to his "friends" In Aroos-

In late speech; "Taks out the churches and
temperance societies and there will Be nothing

General Rosecrans's mission to White Sui
phur Springs was very much like the imperti-
nent missions undertaken by various volunteers
during the last year Of the war. The passion
was quite strong at one time to hnd out on what
terms the re- els would come back and make no
further trouble; but We believe no one who had
part In these schemes acquired any glory to
speak Of. Rosecrans's impertinence Is little
more aggravating than theirs, as he paved the
way to his intimate conference with the rebel
chiefs by libel upon his own people. He Is
indignant ct the imputatiou that the mission
was political one. But Tammany Hall never
devised scheme more trsnParently parti'an
than this whole transaction has been.
The State Central Committees Of Ohio and
Indiana assert that no doubt Whatever need be
entertained but that those States will elect the
Republican ticket in October, by increased ma
iorities. In the latter State Q careful canvass
shows that, with most liberal concessions, the
Democrats cannot carry more than two out. Of
the eleven Congressional districts, while every
district but the New Albany district Is claimed
by the Republicans. The Orleans expect to In
crease the majority Of Gov. Hayes Of last year
over $1,000, and to carry sixteen Of the twenty
one Congressional districts arc put down as GER
tain for the Union ticket.
The Republican Congressional Committee Is in
receipt Of many letters, principally from the
South, with reference TO session Of Congress
this month. The State Republican Committees
and nearly all the members Of Congress from
that section, favor II. Prom other quarters
there Is earnest opposition, owing to the near
approach Of the Presidential election, and en-
s.gsments Of members to speak during the can
ysss, and because they deem It inexpsdient
There has been no direct expression on the sub
ject from Senator Morgan and Representative
Schenck, whose Recommendation Is to determine
the question. The impression 10 that there will
be no session in September.
