THE COMMITTEE

{ TREASURER OF STArE-Mr. Hart,
Esq, of Cleveland, is announced
as a candidate for State Treasurer
and his claims will be pressed be
forc the approaching Republican
State Convention.
The Cleveland Leader, of last
Saturday thus speaks Of Mr.. Hart:
We therefore can strongly re
commend to the Republicans of
Ohio that they nominate Mr.. Hart
as their candidate for treasurer. A
native Of Connecticut, he removed
to Cleveland in 1924, where he has
ever since resided. For nineteen
successive years he has been our
city treasurer, and during that time
has handled immense sums OF money,
ana 10 the entire satisfaction of the
city. He is one Of our foremost
and most successful business citi-
zens, and is q methodical, pains
taking, industrious man. His char
acter for integrity is known to
every resident of our city, and his
werd ever given is rs good as his
bond. & li---.
If thorough business education,
mature years, long experience in the
care of large sums of public money,
perfect integrity, and the entire con
fidence ofthe community, are quail
hcations for the Office of treasurer.
then Mr.. Hart combines them all !;
and will prove, if nominated and
elected, one of the safest and best
men that has ever filed the Office OF
treasurer Of Ohio.

General Grants Income.

With great but characteristic
disingenuousness, many of the Dem
ocratic papers are publishing a
short statement to the effect that
General Grant returned his income
last year at only $3.50, leaving the
inference to ignorant readers. e.,
Dcmocrats-that he, General Grant,
had not made a full return. The
wording of this cowardly paragraph
reveals the fact that its author knew
lie was both suppressing and twisting
the truth. General Grant did not
return any such income. He re-
turned one Of several thousand
dollars, from which the United
States assessor deducted all lawful
exemptions - among which were
81, 900 allowancy, taxes and house
rent paid for the previous year, all
losses in business, and all govern
1nent salaries from which the tax
is taken off when paid, leaving, in
this instance balance of but 1856
liable to tax. We make this expla-
nation for the benefit Of the not
over intelligent Democracy, upon
whose credulity their own journals
are deliberately attempting to inn
pose. The conduct Of the proprie-
tors and editors who permit this
discreditable evasion to float through
their columns can only charitably
he excused on the ground that their
concerns not being such as to
necessitate an income return on the
part OF anybody connected with
them. they may possibly be igno.
rant as to the nature of that paper
and therefore lie unconscionsly.-

JOHN LoTHRoP MOTLEY, our En-
voy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary to England, has
left our shores to enter upon the
discharge of as grave duties as
ever devolved upon an American
Minister to Foreign Court. Upon
his arrival in England the difficult
ties of Mr. Motley's position will
just begin. Hitherto he has been
the most universally praised and
one of the most envied Of men
Since his appointment in August,
1861, as Minister to the Court . f
Vienna, or we might say, since the
first publication Of the first Of his
histories, Mr.. Motley has received
commentator and commentator
only from all countries and from all
quarters except from Seward, john
son, the N. Y World and AIcCrack
Ell. AID this praise has not been
undeserved. 10 rank first among
living historians is proud distinc-
ton. To be able to speak four
foreign languages is no ordinary
accomplishment. And to receive
the hig hest Academic honors which
this and other countries have to
bestew, is not the fortune of ordl
nary men. Add to the accomplish
ments of the historian, dipIomatist,
scholar and gentlemen, that beau
tiful magic OF great men," which all
feel who have come within Motley 5
personal influence, and it Will CEASE
to be a matter of surprise that such
a man should go abroad with "a
Nations praises, to take the place
! of one who comes back with a
Nations contempt. But when the
new Minister'S diplomatic dutie.
begin criticism will begin. Know
ing that an Ambassadors influence
amounts to nothing unless he re-
ceives social recognition from what
is called society in London Mr
Motley will demand and will re-
ceive for himself and his family the
position and consideration to which Ii
he. is fairly entitled. He will be-
"called on by the leading officials
and the nobility and leaders i'll the
fashionable world and will be dined
lin a private way OF course-and
] fetea as no American has ever been.
TO establish and maintain social re-
lations with this class will be clearl,
4 his. interest, but it will subject HIM
to the charge of being too exclu
sive and arstOcratic in his tastes
and tendencies and OF toadying II
titles. In his diplomatic CORES
: pondence if he is intensely Amer
can and stands UP for that interpre
tation Of International Law tl
| which his countrymen adhere, ht
will be condemned by the Engli /
for. his narrowness, iiliberality an,
prejudice, but on the other hand, l.
he is conciliatory and comprolnis
ing he will be denounced by til,
Americans for sacrificing his coun
try's interests and surrendering tt
Ethe enemy. We fear that what i:
expected Of the new Minister-th'
settlement of the Alabama claims
on the basis Of Mr.. Summers speecI
lis more than it will be possibl
for any man to accomplish. But i
4 he succeeds. in this, still highe
fhonors, perhaps the Presidenc,

The Tifteenth A mcnilmcnt .


Counting Indiana, says the Cleve-
land Leader, as among the ratify-
ing states. twenty-three ofthe states
of the Union have ratified the fif-
teenth constitutional amendment,
providing for universal manhood
suffrage, without distinction of race
or color. The ratification of TWEEN
ty- eight states is necessary to make
the amendment part of the con-
stitution.' Vermont, New Hamp-
shire and Rhode Island, who have
not yet acted upon it, are sure to
ratify, and the only question in re!
gard to its final success is what two
states will make up the twenty eight,
and how soon they will act upon it.
Among the states of the North
we have to look to Ohio, Oregon
and California. In all these states
the Democrats have at present a
majority in one or both branches
,f the legislature, and of course
have prevented the ratification OF
he amendments. But we have rea-
son to expect that in all these states
the coming elections will give us
full Republican legislatures, which
willipromptly give in their support
to this last and highest act in the
work of reconstructing the govern.
ment upon the basis of Equal Rights.
But we have not to wait so long
for the ratification of the ameld
nent. The states of Virginia ami
Mississippi, which, under the recent
law of Congress, will soon be recon
structcd, both appear ready to ac-
cept the amendment as soon as
their state governments ere con-
stituted. In Virginia both tickets
in the field claim to be Republican,
and, whichever succeeds, the ratifi
cation of the amendm ent follows as
a matter Of course. In Mississippi,
also, if we may judge from resolu
tions Of Democratic meetings-and
notably from one held at Brandon
| the Democrats themselves have con
cluded that it is necessary to accept
the situation, and will make no eff
ort to resist the amendment. Ifso,
we may hope that before December
| these two States will have added
the twenty seventh and twenty
eighth votes in ratification, and thus
have completed the good work.
1t is our hope and belief that be-
fore Congress meets again the ff-
teenth constitutional amendment
| will become the law of the land.
The result of this will be the re
Gemption of Maryland, Delaware
Kentucky from the rebel rule in
which they are now held. The black
constituencies hitherto DISTINGUISHED
will rise to the dignity of citizens
and sovereigns, and their voices
will be heard at the ballot box.
Few of us really appreciate the
grandeur and nobility Of the work
done in the last few years, by which
the nation has been lifted ont of the
degradation to the slaveholding
power which has enthrallcd it foI
the last generation, and now breathe=
new and higher life of liberty
The work which has been done
in the last decade will be fel,
through all the centuries to come
The men who have done it will bt
held in the estimation of future
ages among the Brutuses. the Tells
the Washingtons Of the worlds his

Our Minister to Spain.

General D. E. Sickles has been
appointed Minister to Spain, to
succeed Hon. John p Hale, whose
resignation, to take effect on the
1st of July. has been accepted. The
appointment elicits strong approval
in some. quarters, and quite as
stron= censure in otkers. The
Generals qualifications for the po-
sition is universally conceded. He
served the country during the war
with fidelity and energy, and made
fewer mistakes, perhaps, than any
other volunteer officer. Though he
had been all his life an ardent and
thorough going political partisan,
he abandoned all connection with
politics, and neither made po'it
ical speech nor wrote 8 political
letter till the close of the war;
thus completely silencing in his own
case the suspicion that he entered
the service for the sake of political
preferment. Though originally a
Democrat. with very strong South
ern proclivities, upon the outbreak
of the rebellion he gave his support
to the Union Party and the Admin
istration which that party had placed
in power, and has ever since been a
Jealous and effective Republican.
He is an able lawyer, has had large
experience in public affairs. and will
be an adroit and skillful diplomat
ist. He was at one time United
States Secretary of Legation while
Mr.. Buchanan was Minister, in
London, and took leading part in
the famous Ostend Conference,
which was justly unpopular at the
time, but which nine-tenths of the
people have forgotten all about

in this community, on surpicion of
being implicated in this dark chap
ter of crime. These gentlemen are
all well and respectfully CONNECTED,
and we trust will soon be able to
prove an alibi. The military author-
tiles deserve great deal of credit
for the zeal and energy they have
displayed in their attempts to arrest
the guilty parties and we trust they
will not stop their efforts until the
guilty villains to this most horrible
crime are brought to justice. ,.,

THE Mechanics and Laborers, in
the employ Of the Government Of
the United States, will henceforth
unanimously remember the name of
President Grant with gratitude
The question as to the meaning of
the law of Congress, enacted June
25th, 1868, which has been a theme
so prolific of discussion, has been
set at rest by the President of the
United States, deciding that all en-
ployees of the Government must
henceforth receive the same pay for
eight hours labor. as paid them
heretofore for ten hours work.
TWAS but natural for man of so
generous impulses and magnani-
nous heart, whose efforts to elevate
hitherto oppressed and despised
race are as immortal as his unrival-
ed military achievements, to take
such stand in favor of working
men, as announced to the world by
the following proclamation.
President Grant knows how to
sympathise with the toiling millions.
Here is the proclamation:
.sBy the President of Che United
States: ..
A PROCLAMATION.
"WnEREAs, The act Of Congress,
approved June 25. 1868, constituted
On and after that day eight hours a
days work for all laborers, work
men and mechanics employed by
and on behalf of the Government of
the United States, and repealed all
acts and parts of acts inconsistent
Herewith, now, therefore, I, U. S.
Grant, President of the United
States, do hereby direct. that from
and after this date no reduction
shall be made in the wages paid by
the Government by the day to-. such
laborcrs, workmen and mechanics,
on account of such reduction of the
hours Of labor.
I'm testimony whereof I have
hereto set my hand and caused
| the seal of the United States to
be affixed.
