The Vinton Record favOrs Wilson for

The Jackson Standard names Hon. II. s. Bundy
for Congress, in this District, and offers some
sound reasons for his nomination. If nomina-
ted, Mr. Bundy would walk over the track with
rush, for he is all right upon the great and only
question In issue, the Tariff.
Yes, and Mr.. Bundy is not i'll favor

Gratis, reputation of the public debt, or
any part ofM
The West Union Scion says:
We publish, in another column, an article
from the Jackson Standard, recommending Hon.
ii. =. Bundy, for Congress. We have always ta-
ken the position that Bundy Is the best man for
the position in the llth District, and we are con-
fident that he would make the best run In Ad-
ans county of any Republican in the District.
Let us have Bundy, by all means.
A correspondent e the Portsmouth
Republican says:
Mr.. EDITOR:-The Tribune of this city, copies
an article from the Jackson Standard, taVorlng
the nomination of Hon, II. $. Bundy for Con-
gress In this district. The Tribune neither de-
murs nor answers to the allegations therein, but
the inference Is fair that the editor fayors the
suggestions of the Standard, else 1t would have
object to Mr.. Bundy as n representative man for
our party. He is good man, and, he is one in
whom all have perfect confidence. But we
should be glad to know whether the editor OF
the Tribune Is in favor of claiming the candi-
date this term for ScotO county or not. The
party in this county has not been represented
since o. +, Moore. K.
We were not aware that any county
had any right to claim the candidate.
If SO, we suppose that Lawrence, Gal
liza or Vinton, would have claims supe-
rior to Adams, Scioto or Jackson. II
any county has better, Or more suita-
BILE man than Mr.. Bundy, let him be
brought out, and Jackson county will,
as always heretofore, do her whole du-
ty.

THE Portsmouth Times of last Satur.
day contained an editorial commencing
thus:
GRANTS ADMINIsTRArIoN-ITs FAILURE.
No honest Republican can deny the fact that
Grants administration has been a most signal
failure, not only as far as the Interests Of the
country are concerned but also the future OF the
party IL represents II has no fixed policy upon
any questiOn-indeed scarcely an opinton-but
has drifted along in as devious and aimless
manner as the little sail boats that boys set out
from shore to be swept along by breeze or cur
rent General Grant never realized the true
character of the situation in which he was placed
or the importance of the task before him. He
lacked every essential quality necessary In
statesman and had not the disposition or apu-
tude to use the knowledge or experience OF
others. He began with blunders and an unin-
terrupted series of follies has marked hls public
conduct. His friends can not point to one sin
gle act of his administration with pride, while
they are forced to hang their heads In humila-
ton as they contemplate Its numerous and un-
purdonable errors. II the administration dur
Ing the remainder of Its term continues TO lose
edherents and defenders as rapidly as II has thus
fur in It's career, IL Will be left at It's close with
few friends outside Of those who are recipients
OF Its bounties.
On the same day we received from
Henry Clews &c Co., Bankers, of 32
Wall Street, New York, an official
statement, of the public debt, which
wound up with these figures;
Decrease OF public debt during the
Decrease since March /, ls7O..,.,.,. Sl,706,lO5 80
Now this kind of a policy may not
suit the editor of the Times but it suits
us a great deal better than the policy
pursued by the late Democratic Presi-
dent, James Buchanan, who ran the
country into debt and into war. Grant
gives us peace and prosperity.

The Sunbeam.

The greatest Of physical paradoxes Is
the sunbeam. 1t is the most potent aud
versatile force we have, and yet it
behaves itself like the gentlest and most
accommodating. Nothing can fall more
softly and silently upon the earth than
the rays Of our great luminary-not
even the fcathery flakes Of snow, which
thread their way through the atmos-
phere ns il they were too filmy to yield
to the demands of gravity like grosser
things. The most delicate slip of gold
leaf, exposed as target to the suns
shafts, IL not stirred to the extent Of .
hair, though an infants softest breath
would set it into tremulous motion.
The tenderest of human organs, the
apple Of the eye. though pierced and
bufIeted each day by thousands Of sun
beams, suffers no pain during the
process, but rejoices in their sweetness.
and blesses the useful light. Yet few
Of these rays, insinuating themselves
into mass Of iron, like the Britain mia
Tubular Bridge, will compel the close.
ly knit particles to separate, and will
move the whole enormous fabric with
as much ease a. giant would stir 4
straw. The play Of those beams upon
our sheets Of water lifts up layer aftel
layer into the atmosphere, and hoists
whole rivers from their beds, only to
drop them again in SHOWS upon the
hills, or in fattening showers upon the
plains. Let but the air drink in Z
little more sunshine at one place than
! another and out Of it springs the tenn
