Union County Convention.

The Union party of Gallia county
will hold its annual County Convention,
for the nomination of candidates for the
several county offices, to be by law
elected, at the October election, on
20 Saturday, July 31st, 1869,
at the Court House in Gallipolis, COM
mencing at II o'clock in the forenoon.
The officers to be nominated are one
Representative, one Probate Judge,
one Treasurer, one Sheriff, one Recor-
der, one Commissioner, one Infrmary
Director and one Coroner. 1t will also
be the duty of said convention to ap-
point delegates to represent said county
in the Senatorial convention of the
Eighth District, to be holden in CALI
polls on the 4th day of August, 1869.
The committee have agreed upon the
vote cast for Isaac R. Sherwood, Sec
retary of State, at the last annual cleo
ton, as the basis for apportioning dele
gates to the several Townships and
Wards, allowing one delegate for every
80 votes cast for him, with an addi-
tional delegate for every fraction of I S
votes and over. IN %
The several Townships and Wards,
under such apportionment, are entitled
to the following representation in said

tied by earnest Republicans and con
versed with, SO that all the proper and
legitimate influences by which mems
actions are svayed may be brought to
bear, Republicans Of high standing
can influence those neighbors to whom
they are personally known and by whom
they ara personally respected, when all
other means are unavailing. To use
this influence at his command when
ever either the State or National Gov
ernneat is-ia danger of passing into
the hands of dishonest, disloyal or dan
gerous men, is a plain and imperative
duty which no good citizen can con-
scientiously escape. 1t is ofithe first
Importance that the candidates for Of
fee, particularly the candidates for the
Legislature in all the counties, should
make personal canvass and candidly
discuss the questions at issue with each
voter. This is a perfectly proper and
most effective method of eleetioneering,
and when fesorted to has been the
means ofinhuencing undreds of votes.
1t should be especially resorted to in
heavy Democratic counties, for candi-
dates must bear in mind that to run
ahead of their tickets often results as
greatly to their advantage in the fu-
ture as to gain present success. In
order that candidates may aid County
Committees IN the work oforganiza-
ton, the county nominating Conven-
tions should be held at once. We should
urge upon the attention of our friends
throughout the State, the Importance of
nominating their candidates for the
Legislature at the earliest possible day,
so that they may at once go to work :
The services of the best and ablest
men in each county should be secured
if possible. The party that nominates
an inferior man when superior one
can be had for a candidate, deserves to
be beaten. We want men of brains to
represent US in the General Assembly,
men of earnestness and force and men
whose characters command the respect
of all their fellow citizens. In conclu-
sion we would say, Republicans every
where, be on the alert! And first of all,

Immediate Organization.

The State Conventions of both the
political parties have been held, the
Democratic and Republican tickets are
in the field and their respective plat
forms of principles have been submitted
to the people. 1t is idle to talk about
the time when the canvass shall be
opened. IL IS opened now. The cam
paign has commenced already. Com
mon prudence demands that we shall
immediatel y marshal our forces and be
ready for action at a moments warn
ing. None but timid or unskiIlful
Generals have fears of bringing on too
soon general engagements. Those
whose cause is just, whose hearts are
courageous and whose fighting forces
are disciplined and at command are al.
ways prepared for general engagements.
Whenever the fighting begins all along
the line, the victory is soon decided for
one side or the other. . XII
Let those Republicans who fancy
that we can come out of. this campaign
victorious without severe struggle,
dismiss that absurdity from their minds
at once. Uniform experience teaches
us one sober fact that on the year after
each Presidential election, the State
elections have resulted unfavorably to
the successful party at such Presiden-
tial election. For our present purpose
it is only necessary to note the unde-
niable factswithout analyzihg the causes
which naturally lead to such a result.
If the Republican majority of last year
is not greatly reduced, it will be owing.
solely to the more efficient organiza-
ton, the more persistent efforts and
the more successful labors of the mem
bers of that party themselves. And
this leads us to call attention to that
agency of success which more than all
other, agencies wins political victories,
systematic organisation.
There must be an immediate organi-
zation under the direction of the Re-
publican State Executive Committee of
every county, township, town, ward and

cation. in order to be uniform and uni
formly thorough, must be effected by

during the war, our Dispatch brother
says:

stricken down by tyrants or usur-

plauds the act, is a traitor to his kind

Especial Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette. !

WASHINGTON, July 10.
A Mexican gentleman, who declines
giving his name, has sent here some
magnificent presents, testifying his Joy
at the overthrow of rebellion and end
of slavery. President Grant receives a
silver coffee set of thirty-six pieces and
some dressed leopard skins. General
Sherman receives an egg boiler and
holder. For ex-Secretary Seward there
is an ink stand and penbolder, most To-
genuously contrived, besides call bell;
and Mrs. Lincoln's portion is a heavy
card basket, all the articles are of solid
silver without any dearth of metal, and
of most beautiful finish and workman
ship. The President and General
Sherman have received their portions,
and some idea may be formed of their
value from the fact that the duty on
the Presidents lot was $74S, and on
General Sherman's S184.

Of the Commercial, We're asked by
Commissioner DELANo, through Gov.
HAYS, to recommend the names of
citizens for appointment to the rev.
enue offices in Cincinnati. They
wrote a joint letter giving the names
thus asked for, which have, by some
leak or other, "got out" and the
Enquirer, Chronicle and other city
papers are highly incensed thereat.
1t looks to an outsider as if the let
ter of "Smith- -Halsted" had inter
fered with, and smashed up a "ring'
OF two. We have this much to say:
that Mr.. Delano showed his wisdom
and good sense in making the re-
quest of Messrs. Smith and Hal
stead, and the latter named gentle
men are deserving the thanks of al
good citizens for the excellent
names sent in. 1t strikes us as a
request honorably made and honor
bly, complied with, with only one
object in view, the honest collection
of the revenues.

that the Republican party is growing

wrote these sound words to the
Ohio Legislature:
"This is, indeed, war for the
maintenance of the Constitution and

DID you ever read anything like
that in the Dispatchs No. but vou
have read this-that it was a war
for the destruction of the Copstitu.
ton and in violation of the laws.
Then again, says the General
"equal justice to .all''-no qRalifca-

to ALL" IF the veteran Democracy
can stand this, says a cotemporary,
they can stand anything. If they
can vote for Roseerans, the old abo-

to vote next year for Phil. Sheridan
or Ben. Wade for Governor of Ohio
