few individuals, to excite prejudice
and dissatisfaction with the nom
inee of the Convention, meet with
our disapprobation and censure,
7. That we recognize in our
fellow citizen, the Hon, John A.
Smith, a Representative who is
"honest, faithful and capable'--who
has been true to the principles

has given a hearty support to the
measures of the Grant Admins

above the reach of all improper
influences.

Tho Republic Of France.

The French Government is revo-
lutionized. All relies Of imperial
ism are abolished, A Republic is
proclaimed A Provisional Govern
ment is formed, with Trochu as
President and virtual Dictator The
legislative assembly is dissolved A
constituent assembly to give the
Republic the constitutional form is
to be called as soon as the crisis of
foreign danger is passed, And the
demand of the Legislature and of
the people is for continuing the war
of defense, to the last extremity.
It was necessary that the new
Government should humor the pop
ular rage over the war, in order to
get possession Of power to restore
order. But street cries of heroic
resolution to do and die will be Of
little avail against the march of the.
Pru5sian army; and generally they
who resolve to be buried in the ru-
ins of things rather than surrender
take excellent care of their person
al safety.
The question whether France
shall be saved from further devas-
tation and from harsher terms, byI
making peace now, or shall be sub
jected to further ruin by continuing
the war, is not a thing to be deci
ded by streetcrowd. 1t is mat
ter to be judged by intelligence and
craftsmanship. France is humilih-4
ted and scourged by tho invader
she will be more so if she continues
the war. Regarding the Republic as
inevitable, and giving it our best
wishes, we are constrained to be-
lieve that the best way for France is
to make peace on such terms as she
tan get, trusting to her little i'm
paired resources and to the future
to recover her position in Europe.
Paris is not all France; and the
people OF Paris have no right to
subject all France to devastation,
while they perform theatrical hero
les about dying in the last ditch, in
the defense ofParjs. We hope that
Trochu's Government is strongl
enough to decide the question Of
peace or war, and to sustain his de-
cision by bayonets, if necessary;I
and that the Government, which
knows the resources of France, and
what is necessary to meet the con
quering Prusian army, will decide
whether the war shall be continued,
or an effort at peace made. Mean
while the aspect Of the war has
changed. That which King William
declared q war not against the
French people, but against Louis
Napoleon, is now war against the
French Republic. - Gin. Gazette.

The Cincinnati Times,

The organ Of the Whisky Ring,
which has undertaken to control
the election of q member of Con.
gress in this district, basely and
falsely charges that the people Of
this county are "too badly monop.
olized to permit Of any advanced
populations" and that "nothing
good can be expected from such q
condition in respect to the founda-
tion OF human prosperity" And
this Is the estimate placed upon the
humanity, the mental and moral
progress Of the people of Fayettc
county, BY newspaper outside Of
our Congressional district, which is
daily using the cadgel over the
heads OF our Republican friends in
Tire District to frightcn thom from
the support Of the regular nominee
for Congress, Hon John A, Smith
Ii the ring expects to drive the
honest, true Republicans of Fayette
county from the support Of Mr.
Smith by such contemplate abuse
as this, we can assure them that
they are mistaken in the intelligence
of our Republicans, and the materi
al of which they are composed.
Again, the Times says that "half
dozen large land monorollsts Of
Fayette govern that county" Wei
apprehend that no one in this coun-
" can be found who is willing to
admit that this statement is entitled
to a particle Of truth No county
IN the State possesses n more intel
ligent, independent or liberal popu
lation than Fayette; and no people
on earth are more ready to treat
with deserved contempt any SANDER
on their character or to repel any
attempt by a whisky ring or any
other body vain orarogant enough
TO suppose they have the power to
control their votes or to sacrifice
their principles. Our people, we
can assure the Times, and the ring
in whose interest 1t is doing a vast
amount Of dirty work designed to
influence votes in our county, that
tho voters here do their own think
ing and their own voting and when
outsiders attempt to instruct them
how TO think, what to think, and
who to vote for, their motives are
perfectly understood, and their an
thoss regarded as worthy objects
OF their scorn.

accepted the nomination, not, o.
course, with the hope of being
elected, but with the forlorn hope
of defeating Smith, and thus elect
ing Gen. Denver, the Democratic
candidate. We will not charge
more than a dozen of those who Gle
sired the nomination Of Col. Lou
don at the Hillsboro Republican
Convention with any improper
motives; but from what transpired
at the Convention and since, we
have no doubts but there was q
faction in that convention who
went there with the determination,
by fair means or foul, to nominate
Loudon; and if they failed, they
had predetermed to defeat Smith
either by driving him from the
track, giving their votes to the
Democratic candidate, or by run.
ming Loudon, thus dividing the Re
publican vote and clccting a Demo
crat to Congress.
The nomination of Loudon, and
the following which we extract
from the Times of Saturday, the
organ Of the disorganizers' whisky
ring, confirms our belief, as we
think it must all who reflect and ex
anime the situation, that their only
object and hope is to throw the
election of member of Congress
into the hands OF the Democratic
party. The Times says that a
prominent Republican from Cler-
mont county called at their office
and gave some Interesting informa
ton "relative to the views of the
Republicans of that portion of the
Sixth District in regard to the
Congressional canvass. AccordingI
to the statements of this gentleman
the feeling of hostility toward the
Federal office. holders candidate,
John A. Smith, has been increased
to such an extent by that compla-
cent gentlemOn's contomptuous
treatment Of the protests Of the
voters, that hundreds Of them have
fully resolved to vote the Demo
cratic ticket in order to defeat and
humble the arrogant weakling who
has recently assumed the role ofI
Autocrat Of the District"
There you have it. Rather, than
that Smith should be elected, this
faction who care more for their
faction than for Republican prnci-
pies, will use strategy to defeat
and to elect a Demo
crat.
But the Times is happy to re-
ieve the friends Of Col. Loudon
from the necessity Of voting for
Democrat by the Coloneps nomi-
nation, upon which it exults thus
y:
"The news Of Col. Loudon's can
lidacy will be hailed with delight
" these true Republicans to whom
he Colonel, by his bold and manly
lction offers an opportunity Of ac
:omplishing their aim-that of pu-
flying the party--by voting u Re
publican instead Of q Democratic
ticket"
Yes, Of accomplishing their aim,
which is to defeat a Republican and
'lect a Democrat to Congress. Is
his result desirable by the Ropub-
leans Of Fayctte countyP We
not; nor do we believe
hat the nomination of Loudon
will facilitate the election of Den
yer; it will only take the votes Of
he faction and of the disaGccted
Democrats from Denver leaving
lis vote less, by giving them to
Iondon.
