ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC RE
BELLION.

A bill was introduced into the
House of Representatives yesterday
to take from the Governor and Adiu.
tant- General. the control of the State
Arsenal and other military property,
and transfer the same to the control
of the Chairmen of the House and
Senate Committees on Military AT,
fairs. AT the same time and in the
same House was introduced bill to
repeal the act which prohibits the
carrying of concealed weapons.
We are not an alarmist, but it seems
impossible to regard these move
ments in any other light than as the
first step towards the Inauguration
of another Democratic rebellion. In
view OF the aspect of affairs at Wash
ington, this attempt to place the mil
itary power of the State in the hands
of couple of Democratic members
of the Legislature, is nothing less
than an attempt to place Ohio in re-
bellion against the Government of
pAO ChioCU Ot0ICS, III CtIoG Iuc OuILSu
States Senate in the execution of its
constitutional and rightful authority,
should remove Andrew johnson from
the Office which he has disgraced.
We should regard this extraordinary
movement as startling and alarming,
if it were within the constitutional
power of the Legislature to take from
the Governor, the Commander-in in
chief, and other executive officers
the authority which belongs to them
as such chief executive officers, and
by an act, transfer that authority to
two members of their own legislative
body. The idea is preposterous.
But loyal men must be on the alert.
Let all friends Of good Government
and order sound the alarm. This
Legislature is fit for ''treason, strata
gems and spoils. ."-Ohio State Jour-

ImpeaChment.

This great State trial is drawing
to a close. The past week has been
consumed in the closing arguments.
1t is thought the trial will close this
week, and that we shall have the de-
cision of the Court the first of next
week. tits useless to speculate upon
the result, now that the end is SO
near. Opinions differ, according to
the political attachments of the
parties making them. If justice is
done. conviction is certain and sure.

Lingering Rebellion.

Under this heat the Ironton Register
says: -
Up the Big Sandy, the rebel soldiers
have formed political association
which they call the ''Lone Star" The
sole object of it is to repress Unionism,
and to keep alive the spirit of secession
and rebellion. Of course, they are
all Democrats and apologists of Andy
johnson. They are well provided with
arms, and keep the Union men constant
ly on the watch out. They claim that
they are not conquered and are resting
in hopes that the South will again be
able to contend for its supremacy. 1t
is quite probable that the institution
will merge into the Kukluck Clan, and,
increasing in numbers and power, will
introduce the seems of terror that are
now SO universally transpiring in the
South. m e 1s

sg The Importance of the issue

E The Importance ofthe issue
involved in the campaign which is
just opening, requires of Union men,
everywhere, active, energetic work,
and especially the distribution of
sound Republican papers. Give the
people an honest presentation of the
issues involved, and we have no fears
of the result. Truth is mighty, and
mast prevail. Let our Union friends,
therefore, in every township, see to
it that all are supplied with the right
kind of reading matter, SO that,
when election day arrives, the hand
that deposits the ballot may be con-
trolled by an intelligent judgement,
well understanding the Importance
and effect of its action.

use the best in the market. Our atten-
ton has lately been called to an article

~ AS showing what democracy
is in Kentucky, we note a discussion
which took place in Boone county, In
that State, a short time since between
two candidates for the democratic
nomination for the Office of Common
wealth's attorney. The first speaker
complained that he had been misrep-
resented and placed in false posi-
ton by charges which had been
brought against him by his opponent.
These charges amounted to just this,
that he had voluntarily aided the
Union forces in repelling John Nor
gan's attack on Frankfort, and had
been posted, in 1854, to speak at a
Lincoln meeting. He denied them,
OF course, as any other plan would
have resulted in his being read out of
the party. But his opponent contin-
ued to reassert them, with many 9th.
ers of a. like character. The whole
discussion was upon the question
which had been the greatest rebel,
and which had done most for the reb
ell cause, and least for the Union
cause. This shows what democracy
is in Kentucky. and this is the ele
ment that will sit side by side with
the Ohio democracy in the conyen-
ton for the nomination Of the "dem-
ocratic" candidates for President and
Vice President. How do you like
it? ~ @ @ 10 tl .

~ A friend who has travelled in
Germany, reports the following Incl
dent, for which he vouches: During
the summer, DR.. J. G. Aver spent
some weeks at Dresden, in conference
with the chemists of Central Europe,
where he was heralded as the inventor
of the world renowned medicines that
bear his name, and considered one of
the American celebrities. While rid
ing, one day, his open carriage fell in
with the cortego of the King of Saxony,
on drive from the review. The
Doctor soon became the chief attraction
and received the marked attention of
the people, who were even more de-
monstrative in their courtesies to him
than to the King himself whom they
see so constantly. King John, observ-
ing this, wrapped his military cloak
around him and reclined upon his seat,
while our great American medicine
man did the honors for the royal re-
tinue, graeiously bowling, hat in hand,
on every side, until wearied by his ex-
cessive condescension to this old mon
arch's people.-apr 50-9w.

nz- The Gin. Com. in an article
on-"our four Railroads to the At
lantic''-speaks of the Virginia route
as follows, to3wit:
s'Our next route to the seaboard,
and shortest of all, viii be via the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, an
enterprise which Virginia has very
much at heart, and will build as soon
as she is able. Richmond has voted
$2,0O0,0O0 to the road, and almost
every interested county in Virginia
has subscribed according to its aoill-
ty. This road will be an unbroken
route from Cincinnati to the spiendld
harbor at Norfolk, distance OF o3o
miles"
All very true, but it will never reach
Cincinnati if the Baltimore and Ohio
road can prevent it. The selfishness
of that road has already, since it as
sumed to control the NJ. d C. road,
showns its care for the interests of
Cincinnati by defeating an impor-
tant Cincinnati connection for the
Virginia road, in it's refusal to build
the branch from the Ohio river to
Hamden. Thus, while the Cincinnati
papers are putting the new Baltimore
and Ohio, Marietta and Cincinnati,
and Cincinnati and Lafayette combi-
nation into favor with the public, the
Baltimore influence is working
against the interests of Cincinnati in
its attempts to defeat the Chesapeake
and Ohio road from reaching that
city, by its shortest and most practi
cable route. The Baltimore and
Ohio road is willing, nay anxious, for
the press of Cincinnati to labor for its
new combination, and thereby en-
hance its profits and the commercial
prosperity of Baltimore, but it works
only for itself and the city it repre-
sents.
Cincinnati will, probably, some
day, not far hence, become sadly
convinced of the fact that her labers
in hehalf Of the Baltimore and Ohio
road have been thrown away upon a
"ssuiless'' corporation. The Chesa
peake and Ohio road is bound to have
a connection with the great North
west, and if she cannot get it through
Cincinnati, she will getit around Gin
cinnati. There are other routes by
which to reach Chicago and 81. Louis
except via Cincinnati, and if she
chooses to be gulled by the chicanery
of the Baltimore management, and
thus loose connection with the Vir-
ginia road, so be 1.-THE fault will
alone be due to her own people.
