ticut, comes the glorious defeat of

cy has had the majority of the

success at the recent election of the

written tickets, prepared to cast
their votes for "their man." In
fact they had carried them so long,
that some Of them were almost
illegible. which fact may have ac-
counted for their defeat. The Re-
publicans have now majority on

Theodore Tilto1,.

This gentleman long ago said
many bitter, and as We thought
malicious thing about Gen! Grant.
He forbore during the campaign
last fall to denounce him to his old
vein, and had many an apology,
denial and explanation to make of
his old sayings against Grant. He
it was who most persistently cir
culated the SANDER of Grants
drunkenness. All this served an
excellent purpose in Democratic
hands and mouths last fall. Now
again he attacks Grant and charges
him with having no "sympathy with
moral ideas," with being West
Point stole and all that, and Tilton
feels "chilled' at the "feeble pulse
of moral feeling which the Repub
l'can party has manifested over
since Grant became its leader" In
short Grant don't fire up things
enough to suit Tilton's hot head.
All right! We are glad he don't.
Bro. Tilton has gone good way
to pick q quarrel with Grant this
time. That is very obyious.-AM

THE pacifying influence over the
whole nation, which Grants Adj
ministration has already had. and
the strength and stability which it
has con 'ributed to our national
credit, is truly wonderful and in the
highest degree gratifying. We pre-
dicted this, and confidently expected
it, because we knew that Grant
would bring to the helm of State a
patriotic heart and a firm determine
ton to distribute impartial justice
to all peoples and sections of the
land.
Grant promised economy, and as
an evidence of his sincerity, unnec-
essary officials have been dismissed,
the revenues are more closely col
lected, corrupt rings have been
broken up, and we are Informed
that q reduction of seven million
in the public debt has been made
during the month of March. We
firmly believe that Grants Admins
tration will impart new life to all
our national industries.

Even the Democratic papers are
becoming disgusted with the Demo
cratic Legislature of Ohio. The
Kenton Democrat, alluding to the
large amount of sickness among the
members of the Legislature, offers
them the following excellent
prescription for their relief:
'If the members of this body
would do up their business prompt

sickness wouldn't atfiict them SO
much and the people would be
