Hon. L. D. Campbell ON the Negro suf-
rage and the Greenbacl situation.
Hon. L. d. Campbell, well known
to our readers, as the long time repre-
sentative in Congress from the Butler
District, and ranking as one of the
ablest, if not the very ablcst of Whig
and Republican stump orators-a gen
tleman whose fame is not confined to,
Ohio or to the West, but is as broad
as the Union, has written a letter on
political matters to Mr.. H. P. X. Peck,
of Hamilton, Ohio, which is publish
ed in the Cincinnati Commercial of
the 21st. We would gladly lay this
letter before our readers, but our
crowded space forbids. On two sub
jeots of engrossing importance to the
people of Ohio, we give his views

THE ninety-third anniversary of the
Declaration of American Indepen-
denee will be celebrated to-day, out
of respect for Sunday, which was the
true time for its celebration.
The celebration of the Declaration
should never pass without remember
ing the Constitution, which was but
the completion of that act, and with
out which mere independence would
have been worthless. The Declara-
ton established the right of self-gov-
ernment-the Constitution established
the fact, and put in form. 1t brought

liberty. The great principles of that

The Impeaaltst claims that the

that, too, by the hands of the Radical

fasten negro suffrage upon Ohio, in
defiance of the solemnly expressed {

The Radical Congress, with the aid of I
Eedeial bayoneis, first forced 1t upon
the Southern States, in violation of /
the Constitution, and now it attempts +

- THE NATIONAL DEBT.
The payment of the national debt is |
the great squestionHsof the zdayszs0ur
Radical friends promise to pay it in
gold, whether the contract so provides
or not, and some of their leaders are
ready to begin this specie payment as
early as July of next year. In what
manner they are to gather up the pre-
cious metal i'll sufficient quantities to
accomplish, this desirable result is a
material point OH which / ain patient
| ly awaiting information.
Reputation is bugbear we hear
much of. There are two kinds of re-
pudiation-voluntary and inVolunta-
ry. The first is when a debtor has
plenty of means to pay and won't
'.fork over" the latter when he desires
to pay and can't command the where
with. Now our Government, under
Radical rule, has been repudiating its
debts every hour since it issued its
first greenback.
In regard to the bonds, I would not
have our Government repudiate any,
but pay all according to contract
Formerly we had but one kind of dol
lar recognized by our Constitution
the metal dollar. Now we have two
kinds the metal dollar and the green
back paper dollar-both made a legal
tender. The United States Supreme
Court has decided substantially in
lease between individual itig5nts, that
contract for the payment Of money
/ that is. silent as to the kind of dollars
may be discharged with greenbacks.--
Any person who has read no more of
the law of contracts than is to be
found in Swans Treatise, must recog-
Il nize that this decision is sound law
And if it be the controlling law be-
tween individuals, why is it not good
law between the Government and its
bondholder? And what sort of
showing does the bondholding capi-
, talist and specuIator who bought his
claim at discount of forty or fifty per
cent, make in equity, to relieve him
= from the strictest measure of the law,
as applied to other creditors ? I have
| never entertained doubt of the pro-
!, priety OF Justice of paying of the
bonds in greenbacks, where the con-
! tract does not expressly provide fol
e the payment in coin. If the Govern
: ment adopt any other rule, it will dis
+ criminate in favor OF the bondholdins
capitalist, and deal unjustly and op
pressively with the tax payers and pro
! ducing classes of the community.

GOV. Hays Abuses the Legislature for Gre
8 atfng Omees that lae Recommended.
In his TRADE against tine Democratic
majority in the last Legislature, Sow
ernor Hayes, in his carefully prepared
speech, delivered on accepting the
nomination, says:
sThey created between thirty and
forty new Offices, at a cost to the peo-
pie for salaries, fees and expenses, OF
at least $4,000 per annum.
The Offices created were:
Steam Boiler Inspector, to prevent
the loss of life from the use Of defec-
tive boilers, the fees of which inspec-
tors are to be paid by the boiler own
ers. sazgzzsss
Additional judges, generally in rad
ieal subdivisions, from the ineficiency
of the radical judges, justice was vir-
tually denied TO the people.
Trustees of the new Reform School
for Girls, without which the institu-
ton could not be put in operation
and which new Offices Coy. Hayes
filed exclusively with radicals.
The Geological Corps OF the State
This latter embraced the offices o.
Chief Biologists and three Assistants
These .'new Offices were filled by
Governor Hayes with his partisan
friends, and these partisan friends
have created new and additional effic.
es. the salary for which the people
will have TO foot the bill. Not a MAJ
appointed is Democrat.
OF all the offices created, the Geo
logical Board will prove the most ex
pensive. These offices were recon-
mended by Gov. Hayes, and whel
created, he took particular care tina
none but his own radical friend
should be appointed.
Besides those named, we know o
no new offices created by the last Leg
j islattlre. The Steam Boiler Inspec
tors are appointed by the Probat
Judge of that county in the Congress
sional District having the largest pop
ulation. Where the county having tn
largest population Is Democratic, an,
the Probate Judge is of the same pol
itics, the probability is that the Stcan
Boiler Inspector is of the same poll
tics. Besides this, every new offic
created by the last Legislature, nc
elected by the people, is filled by
bitter radical, of Gov. Hayes own ar
) pointing. -
One year age, had any one told u
that Governor Hayes, or any othe
man elected Chief Magistrate Of tn
State of Ohio, woald descend to sue
depth in electioneering, as to charg
that as a crime, which he, as Goyerne
; of the State, recommended, we woul

Is this not beautiful picture and
does it not well illustrate the charac-
ter of the present Executive of Ohio ?
From an examination of the list of
pardons, with Governor Hayes COM
ments upon the same, we find that but
42 cases came before him for action
during the year. What a liberal
minded, whole-souled creature is this
same Governor Hayes! Thirty seven
full free pardons to murderers, horse
thieves, cutthroats and desperadoes
out of-42 applications! If he contin-
ues at this rate, the penitentiary will
soon be losing institution, instead Of
what it has been in the past, in the
times when the. Governors of Ohio
