Our Senatorial Ticket,

We place at the head of our col
umns, this week, the names OF Ho-
MER G.. JONES, of Vinton county, and
T. A. WEIGH, of Meigs county, as
the Republican candidates for Sena-
tors. the result of the nominating
convention held in this city, last
Friday. The official proceedings of
the convention may, be found else
where in our columns.
This is an excellent ticket. Of
Mr.. JONES we need not, at present,
speak at length. He is already well
known to the Republicans of old
Gallia, and known only to be re-
spected and admired. He will poll
the full strength of the party, and,
we predict, be triumphantly elected.
Mr.. WEIGH has for two terms rep
resented Meigs county in the House
of Representatives. a man OF
ability and experience, and very
popular in his own county. He is
the father of the Morgan raid legis-
lation, and may be depended upon,
if elected, to still work for justice to
the sufferers by the John Morgan
raid.
The Republican ticket is now full.
Taken altogether, it is hard to beat.
Let us go to work and secure its
triumphant success.

s9- The "new departure" Of the
Ohio democracy has come to naught
and they have. gone back to first
principles; the principles that actua-
ted and governed the party during
the rebellion; of hostility to the GOV
ernment; principles that give aid
and comfort to treason and traitors;
principles represented in the person
of Vallandigham in 1863; principles
that caused the expulsion of Jesse
ID. Bright from the Senate of the
United States; principles which led
to the assassination of President
Lincoln, and which made a martyr
of John Wilkes Booth and the entire
host of the Southern rebellion. The
same spirit has again seized hold of
the democratic party, and George
H. Pendleton is it's standard bearer
in the coming Gubcrnatorial contest.
To your post, FREEMAN, for the old
enemy is arrayed against you and
the contest will be sharp and close.
To your post, FREEMAN, if you de-
sire the victory.

~ The BEST TEST of the political
character Of Mr.. PENDLEToN is to watch
those Democrats who were known, dur
ing the war, as copperheads, hostile to
our soldiers and our government
They cannot hide their intense satisfac-
ton at his nomination, no more than
they could disguise their disgust and
chagrin at the nomination of Gen.
RosEcRANs. It is sure test. Look
around in your own neighborhood and
see for yourselves if it is not true.

@ Personally, GEO H. PENDLEros
is gentleman; lido they not call him
"Gentleman George?) knows how to
entertain; lives high; is a rich nabot
and born and bred aristocrat. Per.
sonally, he is unexceptionable; but his
politics are as badly tinctured with
copperheadism as ever Mr.. Vallanding-
hams was, while his manner, and pol.
ished rhetoric, makes him infinitely
more mischievous. Vote for HAYES,
and you vote for man who was true
to his country in its hour of danger.

Why Pendleton Should Not Be
Elected.

The nomination of Mr.. PendletoI
by the Democracy gives the Ohit
campaign a national meaning anC
reputation. The controversy as tt
the extravaganza or otherwise of tn,
late General Assembly may be inter
esting to few people. but it is no
of considerable consequence.
Mr.. Pendleton can not be oppos
ed on account of his personal quail
ties. He would make dignifed, ge
nial and proper Governor. No one
in this community speaks i'll of him
as gentleman in private life, OF
questions his ability to fill the office
of Governor acceptably.
He ought, however, to be as badly
beaten as Vallandingham was in
1868. His nominstion is an sudaci.
ty equal to that of the nomination OF
Vallandingham at that time. His
party, in his name, confronts the
current of events now, as it did then.
He is the representative man of re-
action. His election would signify
revolution backwards. 1t would be
interpreted to mean that the war did
not settle anything but the relative
power of certain masses of men; that
reconstruction as it has progressed
under Congress has fixed no prece-
dents to be respected and recognized
as law and fact; that the public Sc
curities may be swamped in new is
sues of paper; that we are to go
through again with all the confusion
and danger of the last five years, ag-
gravated by new irritations and ele-
ments of discord; that as nothing
was settled but the relations of milf
tary forces by the war, and nothing
by Congress since the war, there is
to be no peace, but fierce agitation
and bitter controversy that shall dis
turb all industrial pursuits, shake
public faith, impair values and excite
alarms, all beyond calculation disas-
trous.
It is as the representative of reac-
tionary principles-as a protest
against all that time and events
have done to make the jarring sec.
tions harmonious nation-as a
prospective candidate for the Presi-
dency, coming forward now In a pc
riod, it was thought, of popular wea-
riness, indifference or distrust, with
the disciplined legions of the old
Democratic party behind him, to
challenge the Republicans of Ohio
once more to the combat, and test
their capacity in this State In which
they have so long held sway-it is in
this character that Mr.. Pendleton
must be met, and in it that he may
be overthrow. The Gubernatorial
contest is but side. show. We are
already entering upon the next
canvass, and ONO Is
the key to the positlon.-Csn. Com.

principally of Republican corruption.
Two years ago he was candidate be-

Last year he spoke and voted for Sey-

piled to A. J. Holstein. Esq. for war
rant for an itinerant saddler named
Lazarus, charging Mr.. Lazarus with

toah her dress. Quite a number of
witnesses were examined, eliciting
variety of amusing remarks from the
curious assembly. But when Squire
Holstein summed up the evidence he
found so many conflicts that his honor
thought proper to release Mr.. Lazarus,
whereupon he gave each of the party
an appropriate lecture, by way of ad-
vice, and told them to go home and
behave themselves during the next
eclipse.--Bgfalo { ~ Va. LRdrpend-
