STATE NEWS.

The Circleyille Union ofthc 18th,
says: Our fruit.growers think that
the peaches in this locality were
not injured much by the late cold
weather, and that the prospect at
present is fair for good crop.
The Union also says: Our lead
ing builders inform us that build
ing in Circlevillo and vicinity will
be quite extensive during the pres
ent season. Work on several
houses has already begun
The same paper says "Mr. Pc
ters, rich farmer of Pleasant
township, Fairild county, Ohio,
committed suicide, on the 9Th inst,
by shooting himself. He was about
65 years of age and one of the most
respectable citizens in that region.
No cause known for the rash act"
The Xenia Torch Light of last
week, contains an editorial notice
Of the death of Mr. Tilberry Jones,
one Of the early pioneers of Greene
county, aged So years. The Torch
says Of him: "Mr Jones memory
reached back to the time of John
Rumsey, the original builder of the
first steamboat, the boiler of which
he helped to rivet and a model of
which had been shown to General
Washing. Mr.. Jones was an in.
dustrious mechanic and citizen. His
youth seemed to be perennicl. He
was in fact the youngest old man
we ever met--unruffled in temper,
cheerful and contented to the last"
The jackson Standard gets off
the following, which we believe to
be malicious slander on the bust
ness firm alluded to: GA certain
firm, having monopolized the bust
ness of manufacturing and selling
clothing, concluded to furnish all
Southern Ohio. SO they started
out several wagons to sell clothing.
This so increased their business
that they could not get enough |
tailors to do the work. So they |
posted off an agent to Washington
City and engaged the notorious
tailor, Andy Johnson, and just so
soon as he is out Of business at
Washington City, he will be here,
He may be expected in about ten
days. Aware of the outrage this
will be upon the moral portion Of
our town, this firm have been try
ng to keep the matter secret, but
It has leaked out. The twenty-five
liquor sellers have got wind OF it,
and have laid in an extra supply
The price of whisky has gone up"
The Madison county Union of
the 10th, says; cat the meet
ing Of Assessors at the Auditors

tbs IMPEACHMENT. The eXami-
nation of witnesses on both sides
has closed, and the arguments com
ncnccd. In the House, Mr. Rob
insou, Of N. u, offered a resolution
withdrawing the articles ofimpeach-
mcnt, and instructing the Managers
on the part Of the House, to sus-
pend further proceedings. BY a
vote Of 0I to IS the House refused
to consider it.
II is thought the case VIII be dis
posed of next week. The Manag-
ers Of Impeachment seem to be con-
iident that the President will be re-
moved. Whichever way the case
goes there will undoubtedly be
great many bonhrcs kindled
throughout the country.

Accessories to Assassination

The unspeakabIc loatlling ant
detestation feltby cyerYright- mind
ed person for the crime Of assassin,
alton, has never served to prevent
its commission when desperate men
have had their passions excited by
continued and vindictive appeals
from those to whom they were ac-
customed to look rs leaders. 1t
often happens that the blow is
struck by a fanatic, who is little
more tan an automatic instrument
of those who are the responsible
authors of the decd.
In times of great public excite
ment, mems ideas of right and
wrong become crazed by frantic
partisan appeals, that drive them
to deeds of desperation which their
conscience and judgment condemn,
when Judgment and conscience are
allowed their rightful sway. 1t is
noticeable, too, that the assassina.
tion Of public men has almost al
ways been perpetrated under plea
of riddng a country ofa tyrant, the
verdict has been, in perhaps a ma
jority Of such cases, that the result
was a great public wrong; and in
stances are rare, If any exist, where
any clear and manifest advantage
resulted to a nation or State by un-
lawfully taking the life ofa ruler.
We condemn the crazed villain
who strikes with the assassin's
knife, but equally must we denounce
the reckless journalism that, by
working upon the bad passions Of
men, stimulates its readers to such
acts of desperation. False accusa-
tions against political opponents,
frcnzied appeals to sectional and
State pride, unjust denunciations
of those in authority, persistent
misrepresentation of the purposes
Of the Government, all tend to warp
Judgment, and cmhitter feeling; and
when an editor Of a public journal,
or speaker before the people, is
guilty Of such course, and u read
cr or hcarer under such influence
rushcs out and strikes down the oh.
ject ofthcir hatred and maledictions,
those whose misconduct urged him
to the deed Of blood cannot lie held
guiltless, In legal contemplation
the man who strikes a blow is held
responsible forintending to produce
The natural consequences Of that
blow; and when speakers and wri-
FRS wield their oratory or their
rhetoric SO as to procure assassina-,
ions, the rule Is fully applicable
It is poor and miserable reparation
'or them to condemn the act in
studied >phrase and set forms of
ipeoeh. IT. Cincinnati Chr0afcle.

1.-The editor Of the Coppcrhead
Register in Fayette county, who is
drawing his 50 a day as one of the
numerous clerks Of the Ohio Lcgis-
lature, wants that body to hold a
session the year round! He thinks
this Legislature regulates the uni
verse aud will hold Congress in
check and in fear. He evidently
realizes with his party that this is
the last time the people will trust
the eOpperhcads with power in this
State, aud his party wants to get
hold Of all the public money they
can. A perpetual session by all
means - ChHiicothe GaZette.

Mr., EDITOR The time and place
being fixed upon for holding Con
yention to nominate a candidate for
Congress, to be supported by the
loyal people Of this district at the
coming election, it may not be amiss
to look around for the proper man.
During the last three years we have
been well and faithfully represented
by tho Hon. II. w. Clarke of this
county, and l am sure no man in
Congress, during that time, can
show q better record. He has been
steadfast and prompt in sustaining
all the great issues of the Ropubli-
can party by his voice and votes,
and believe no man in this Dis
trict is more reliable, or enjoys the
unspoken confidence Of his constit-
uents more fully-and | may say,
deservedly-than he does, We are
not yet out Of danger nor Congress
free from perplexing questions of
legislation, in order to restore the
peace and prosperity Of the coun-
try, and the union Of the States, and
| suggest, that while thus involved,
it is unwiso to exchange a well tried
and true man for one whose record
is yet to be made. / am sure | but
speak the general wish and expecta-
tions of the county, and believe
of a large majority Of the District,
when / say that the nomination Of
Hon. r. w. Clarke for another term
in Congress, would meet with gen
eral appreciation, not only in this
District, but throughout the whole
State. CLERMONT,

breaking up and exposing a Ku KluS

With such indictments to assassi-

cool item, clipped from the same
loyal Journal, is entirely explaina.

1t is said that a steamboat was
the first public conveyance that left
