WE place at The mast head
of our paper, this week, the
name of John 7. Wilson, who
has been nominated with great
unanimity, as the standard
bearer of the Republican party
in the 1lth Congressional Dis
trict. Mr.. Wilson has already
served one term and has given
very general satisfaction. His
high moral department., hon
esty Of purpose and practical
common sense commend him
to the people generally. That
he will be elected, no one, for
one moment can doubt.

Hon. JAMES EMMITT, a mem,
Der of the Ohio Senate from
Pike county, has made the very
liberal proposition to give the
sum of 100000 to provide the
State House grounds with stat
uary and other suitable works
of art, if the State will appro-
pirate $4,000 or $4,000 for
the object. NeaO York 0b8err'
e.. .# ...... III
This is the man on whom the
"Urip" story is told by fellows
who would be at a loss to spell
the word themselves, if shortly
called to try it. Moreover, Mr..
Emmitt has, what all the train
ing of all the schools could not
have impaired to him, uncom
monty good sense, a decisive
will, and liberal public spirit.
-MQraetta Times.
Unfortunately tor the State,
as we'll as for the "uncommonly
good sense and liberal public
spirit" OF the Honorable James,
he sat in nis seat in the Sen
ate one hundred and thirty-four
days last session while there
was a good chance 20 have his
proposition accepted, without
once Offering it; but no sooner
was the Legislature adjourned
and 10 person. left to receive
his handsame bequest on his
terms, than he suddenly be-
thought bimself of this offer. 1t
is peculiarly distressing to
think a gentleman who had
made a "tower" through "Urip'
should be burning to give away
100000 and not know how to
do it. When we see the statu'
airy in the State House Square
we will be convinced that the
offer has really been made in
} good faith. Mr.. h. IS a shrewd
business man. He can, per
haps, calculate per cent. as
closely as any man IN the
State; but we have heard sc
much and seen so little of his
"liberal public spirit" with hi
7 immense wealth, that oul
neighbor will have to excuse
our incredulity. .''.

From the lronton Register.
The Republicans of this Dis
trict did a far better thing in
renominating Hon. John I.
Wilson, than they did in nomi-
mating him., They wisely rec
osaized- the rHlethis time, that
they foolishly discarded two
years ago, viz: If a man has
faithfully and zealously repre-
sented this District one term,
let hlm be returned for another,
We cannot now place our fin
ger upon a single act of John
4. Wilson, in the House Of
Representatives, that we do
not endorse, saving, perhaps,
some positions on immatenal
questions, that he assumed in
aspeech in Congress; and these
grounds probably, he would
not have taken, had. he not
made his speech a little too
long. Dir % 7ia laa' lyVoY .t
Mr.. Wilson has been a faith
ful Representative. He has
been true and radical, He has
been right up with the advance
Of noble hearts that have made
the present Congress, tire
truest and grandest that ever
sat i'll the Republic. Al all
times, when Loyalty was TO be
protected or Liberty confirmed
he stood ready for the work

reward Fidelity by recommis!

Regarding the direct inter-
estS of the people Of this Dis

prompt in accomplishing what,
ever was committed to him.
We have frequently been wit
ness to his alacrity in render,
ing services to his constituents
when requested. ...g,nsH
When Congress adjourns, he
