R One after another, until now
the number has reached nine, the
students OF the institutions of learn
ing in the State have poured their
shotted guns into the cowardly demo
cratic gang, at Columbus, for its law
to disfranchise them. These young
men are fully aroused--their eyes
have been opened to see that intelli
gence and democracy are antagonis
tic-that no young man who has the
least ambition to become something
in his day and generation, can have
any affiliation or association with the
present so-called democracy. The
time was when democracy was alto
eether another thing from what it is
to-day. Then Its mission was to ele-
yate and ennoble the masses-to ex
tend freedom and intelligence, and to
do good to the greatest number
But it has sadly changed. Since it
became the apologist of treason, and
the ally OF traitors, its mission seems
rather to be to pull down and destroy
to restrict freedom and intelligence,
and to foster and encourage only the
vile and debasing passions of the hu-
man soul. Is it any wonder, there
fore, that the young men of our day
see in it nothing to admire, but in
stead, everything that is obnoxious
and detestable, and are leaving its
dosOnward path for one that is higher
and purer-for one that leads the
mind up, so that it may contemplate
the despised and down trodden every
where, and seek fer their elevation
and hsppiness.

very tempest of cheering went up

only with the physical exhaustion of
the delegations.
GAS it died out, three capital sing
ers came forward and sang, in fine
style and amid enthusiastic applause,
new Grant song, closing with the
chorus
"We'll tally again, we'll rally again,
With the soldier, and sailor, and hummer,
And We'll fight it out here on this same Union
line,
No odds if it takes US all summer"

E The nomination of GRANT and
CoLFAx, for President and Vice Presi-
dent, are everywhere received by the
press and the people with the strongest
marks of approval. Universal satisfac-
ton is expressed by Republicans, and
many democrats are candid enough to
admit that the ticket is very strong
one. 1t possesses the elements of sue
cess to such an extent-is so univer-
sally popular with the masses-that it
is, even at this early day, acknowledged
that it will sweep the country by ma
jorities excepting those of LINCOLN over

Common Pleas for this subdivision

R Our candidates on the Presi-
dental ticket are both in the prime
and vigor of life. Gen. GRANT was
forty-six years old this spring, and
CoLFAx forty five. They both came
from the humber walks of life. The
former was raised a tanner, and the
latter bred printer. All tanners
and printers especially, if not all
classes of mechanics, will vote this
ticket, if they have any respect for

Grant and Colfax.

The National Convention have COM
nleted their labors in manner graft
fying to all, giving us platform that
more completely than any other,
represents the views of the whole
party, and selecting candidates whose
names would be a guarantee of sue
cess under the most unfavorable
auspices.
GRANT and CoLFAx, together, are
a power, that cannot be overcome,
and the first thought that struck ev-
cry one, Democrat as well as Repub-
lican, upon hearing the nomination,
was that the Convention had put forth
the strongest ticket that could be
formed. One of the best indications
of this is that Democratic papers
are excessively disgusted with the
nominations.
Gen. GRANT, the. humble tanner,
the successful General, winning
where all others had failed, taciturn,
but always reliable, and standing up
boldly for his principles, when the
occasion demanded it, had already
been chosen as our next President
by the wishes of the people, and the
Convention only gave expression to
those wishes in nominating him
But if such thing were possible,
GRANTS strength is increased by
joining with him CoLFAx, man who
has been in public life from boyhoed,
always firm in support of his princi-
pies, and yet personally popular
with all classes and all parties, being
free from the hatreds and enmities,
that seem almost inevitable to man
long in public life.
With these glorious standard bear
ers we feel certain that the Union par
ty, which saved eur country from dis
memberment, will once more be sue
cessfuI, and finish the great work of
securing lasting peace and harmony
to the Union. Under the lead of
GRANT and CoLFAx, every man OF US
can work with a stout heart in the
summer campaign, and if all do their
duty, next November will see the
triumph of the party, and the dis
graceful administration OF Andrew
johnson displaced by one, in which
the people, without regard to party,
can confide, satisfied that the Govern
ment will be conducted with regard
to the nations best interests, and not
with a view to advance the ambitious
designs of politicians.

from a mistaken notion of expedien-

second Judicial convention last
Thursday. The first was held the
week previous, but the accustomed
harmony not prevailing-too many
wanting the empty honor of nomi-
nation--it broke up without agreeing
upon a candidate. The second trial
was more successful The disaffect
ed were either got rid of or muzzled,
and the result was the nomination of

features of the Chicago Convention,
was the presence, as delegate, of
ex. Governor Joseph E. Brown, of
Georgia. He was Governor of his
State throughout the war, and an ar

called out and made a speech. He
proclaimed himself an original seces
sionist, and declared that he had
done his best for the lost cause, and
had fought the Union with his whole
heart, and then explained how, when
the war was ended, he had sense
enough to know that he was whipped,
and penetration enough to perceive,
that having surrendered the doctrine
of secession, he could not now ally
himself with the Democratic party,
which still sustained it.

SPRAGUE-At Gallipolis ON Thursday MAY
2ist, 1858, Mr.; Joseph II. Sprague, Jr. Aged %
years, months and 20 days.
After long and painful illness, in the evening
of the 2ist just as the sun was sitting, he fell
asleep and was horne to that land from whence
no traveller returns. AS the sun sinks in the
West to rise in the East, let us hope as his sank
behind the hill of DEATH that he may rise again
on that day when the dead shall come forth at
the sound OF the trump. That he may come forth
unto everlasting life and not unto death. Let us
hope that he trusted in one who hath said: 81
am the the resurrection and the life" We
can hope this for he is in the hands of merciful
and Just God. Amidst number of friends on
the 22d, his remains were committed to the
ground, ashes to ashes, earth to earth, dust to
dust, TO await the general resurrection of the
dead when all things shall be made known. He
said that he would like to live, but that if he had
to die he was willing; thus showing a resigna-
tion to his death. He leaves dear brother. and
loving father and family and anumber of friends
to mourn his loss. {. p.

~ OF the platform adopted az
Chicago the Cincinnati Gazette says:
OF the platform we need say but
little, because there is nothing in it
to be apologized for, and nothing left
out that we could desire to be in
serted. 1t fairly presents the issues
upon which the canvass is to be con-
Quoted, and which are vital to the
maintenance of a just and honest gov
ernment. Therefore, it is worthy of
the men who have been nominated to
stand upon it; worthy of the men
who made it; worthy of the people
who are expected to vote for it.
Thus with the best men for our can
didates, and with righteousness en-
bodied in the platform and emblazon-
ed upon the banner, the people may,
with confidence, be called upon to
work vigorously and steadfastly for
GRANT, CoLFAx and VICTORY.
The Cincinnati Commercial, also,
hitherto lukewarm and semi demo-
cratic, endorses both the platform
and the ticket. Of the former it
says:
The two matters of first-class prac-
tical Importance treated in the plat
form were the question o: impartial
suffrage, and of the discharge Of the
national pecuniary obligations
These subjects are treated in the
platform with good judgment and in
good English; and upon both com
manding issues the Convention de.
clared the common sense and the
sense of honor of the majority of the
Ann erican people.
