CINCINNATI. Feb. 24-The United
States inspectors of this port have
rendered their decision in the case of
the collision of the steamers Swal-
low and Champion, which occurred
December 21st, 1869, by which the
Swallow, with a large cargo, coming
from New Orleans. was sunk in sight
of the city. ard has proved total
wreck. The inspectors fnd by the
testimony that the Swallows whistle
was out of order, which fact was the
main cause of the disaster, and could
not have been avoided; and that the
tow was not properly distributed.
The Inspectors. therefore, have
revoked the licenses of the pilots and
engineers on watch on both boats.
The pilots were George Barber and
Joseph Purcell; engineers William
| Gould and Harman Kennedy. The
license of James Fagiu, pilot Of the
Champion, is revoked for not floating
his boat with the current under the
circumstances. aud not having the
proper signal lights placed on her

Republican Quarrel at Athens.

.
/ There is bitter family quarrel among
the Republicans down at Athens. They
have two Republican organs there, and
the two editors have been for some time
belaboring each other, until the thing
has gotto be red hot. Jennings, of the
Messenger, printed q document over the
signature of members OF the Republican
State Committee, and other prominent
Republicans here, to prove that General
Wildes had printed falsehoods in his pa
per, the Athens journal. 1t turns out
that the Columbus Republicans indicated
signed no such document, and Wildes is
here getting the papers on Jennings,
which he will use to the best advantage
in his next issue.-C'olum6us Telegraphic
Dispatch.
The Messenger ring is fast being re-
duced; for years it ruled Athens County
as it willed: but the split in 1868 on
County Clerk by some determined men
who had tired of the "reign of terror"
was the knell of its downfall Even E..
H. MOORE is powerless to calm the
troubled and angry spirits. Goodbye
old Ring" We fatter ourselves that
we supplied the entering wedge, to your
overthrow, during the campaign of 1858.
True you had your Grand Jury indict
us; but we guess you were perfectly
willing to nolle when we appeared to
fight you.

The Fall OF Metz.

The surrender of Metz adds another
to the series of. calamities to the French
armies which hare followed each other
in such rapid succession. This event is
generally believed to be, not the result
of military necessity, but rather the re-
suit of intrigues between Marshal BA-
zAINE and the Bouapartists to restore
NApoLEoN's dynasty to the throne of
France.
But whatever its cause it certainly
adds materially to the perils of the
French Republic. The only hope Of
the French leaders was in effecting the
organization of an army outside of Paris
able te relieve that city before famine
and the Prussians should render it un-
tenable. The release of the besieging
army about Metz will retard if not en-
tirely prevent the proposed movement
for the relief of Paris.
Should this alleged treason Of BAzAINE
result in the restoration of the NAPOLEON
dynasty, year will probably not elapse
before the whole BoNAPARrE family will
be sent to join the hundreds of thou
sands of better men whose lives they
have wantonly sacrificed.

The NewYOrk Election

GRANT has in and around New York
CITY about 1000 soldiers and two or
three batteries of artillery. He has had
thousand United States deputy mar
shals sworn in in that city All this un-
der the pretext of securing a fair cleo
ton on the Stb inst.
The following brief biographies of
certain of these msrshals and supervis-
ors show the kind of materials with
which the Radicals propose to secure an
honest vote:
William p Burke. Supervisor Twen-
tieth District, Eighth Ward. Served his
term in the State Prison of Massachu-
setts for burglary; also two years in the
New York State Prison.
James McCabe, Supervisor Fourth
District, Eighth Ward. Now confined
in the Tombs under indictment for high
way robbery.
William G. Irving, Supervisor Four
teenth District, Eighth Ward Has
1 served term in Sing Sing Prison for
burglary committed in the Eighth Ward,
and has never been pardoned.
Patrick Henry Kily, alias Fred Will
liams, Supervisor Twenty second Dis
trict, Eighth Ward. Keeper of house
of i'll fame; resort of the lowest and
vilest characters.
Patrick Hefferman, Supervisor of the
Tenth District, Sixth Ward. Arrested
some time since for attempted murder.
Frederick Sterringer, supervisor, Eighth
Ward. Has been arrested several times
for keeping disorderly house.
i j. F. Baderhop, Supervisor, Tenth
Ward. Arrested for murder few years
since
| Ed. Weaver, Marshal in Eighth Ward.
Has been but short time out of State
Prison. where he has been serving out
his sentence.
/ Walter Prince, (colored,) Marshal,
Eighth Ward. Now in prison awaiting
trial for highway robbery.
| Andrew Andrews, alias Hans NicOls,
Marshal. Panel thief; been sentenced
two or three times to State Prison, and
has Just returned from Blackwel's Is
land.
Under law of Congress passed last
winter for the especial benefit of Demo
cratic districts, these villainous peniten-
Hary birds have authority, at their own
caprice, and without process, to arrest
citizens and keep them in custody until
after the election.
The scandalous means adopted by the
Radicals to retain power are disgracefu
to the country. Why not appoint GRANT
dictator, and let him peddle out the State
offices as, he has notoriously been doing
with Federal offices? This would moi
be any less disreputable than the system
now so much practiced Of using fedora
bayonets to place the elections under
control of pick, pockets, burglars and
cut-throats.

That's Right.

The Wheeling Register of the 2d inst.
contained sound article on the duty
of Democrats in West Virginia. We
extract:
I'VE must treat our Radical brethren
as they should have treated US, not with
the same measure they have meted to US
during the past seven years. With us,
no party necessity can suggest the DIS
franchisement of a single voter, for the
largest expression Of the will of the
whole people has in it no terror for the
Democratic party in West Virginia We
not only recognize the duty of liberality
and magnanimity, but we can afford to
deal fairly, ,liberally and justly toward all
classes of people in the State.
"In the interior and southern counties
where the hand of prescription was
heaviest and more oppressive than else
where, the men who lave been the imme
diate instruments of oppression will suf-
fer no other penalty than to sink quietly
out of notice and resume the obscurity
out of which they emerged by accident.
The Radical party throughout the State
need entertain no fears of any discrimi-
native legislation at the hands of the
Democracy, or Of the establishment Of
any two rules of political and civil right
We shall give to them the same rights
and privileges. we claim for ourselves
no more and no less"
Adhere strictly to the above and in
two years the Radical party in Wes
Virginia will shrivel to such insignifcant
proportions that the Democrats will
hardly realize their feeble opposition.

HEx-Secretary Cox says that keep
ing the Interior Department out of the
reach of thieves and plunderers would
''involve an opposition which it may not
be for the interest of this administration
to provoke"
Is not this only delicate way of say
ing that GRANT wants denomination,
and that the plunderers control the party
and would defeat him if he provoked
their opposition by allowing one depart
ment of the government to be kept out
of their clutches

Suit for Damages.

J. NJ Ashfeld has commenced a suit
in the Court Of Common Pleas of Noble
County, Ohio, against the Trustees of
Sharon township, claiming $4,000 dam
ages for refusing his vote at the late
election. When his right to vote was
challenged Mr.. A. swore he had resided
in Sharon over twenty years; had never
permanently removed; had never voted
elsewhere than in Sharon, except when a
soldier. He owns house and lot in
Sharon, and has made his home with his
mother, widow lady, he being a single
gentleman. He was four years in the
U. S army, aiding to put down the re-
bellion, and since then he has been four
years in the government employ at
Washington. He has taken this course
to test the question, whether this is suffi-
cient cause for disfranchising a citizen.

The Negro Election In South Caro-.
l1na

The "election" in South Carolina, just
over, afforded fair specimen of the
Radical fashion Of 'preserving the purity
of the ballot-box." On the seaboari
and islands,the negroes IN savage crowds
held the ballot-boxes and, crammed
them with all the Radical tickets sent to
them. The negro women were even
more violent than the men; and, with
arms in hand, these brutal mobs attack
ed, beat, and drove off every man, white
or black, who showed or tried to vote
the Reform ticket. In the middle coun.
ties the negro militia did the same SER
vice, and although negro boys from fif-
teen to twenty years of age were seen to
vote,no white man returned to challenge
them. Not only minors, but felons,
well-known convicts for burglary, grand
larceny, ETC., voted and repeated often
enough to count from Eve to ten votes
each. The Federal troops were called
in to aid the execution Of the farce in
the upper counties, where the white pop
ulation is in the ascendency.

nrassachusetts Democracy.

In his letter accepting the nomination
for Governor by the Democracyof Of Mas
sachusetts, Hon. JOHN QuINcY ADAMS
says:
"The only real claim vf the Republi-
can party, of late, to public confidence,
is by parade of trophies. Without
head, or system, or principles, It is held
together only by the life of dccay-cor-
ruption. Its system of taxation is the
most burdensoms and the least Demo-
cratic in the world; its currency is the
robbery of the poor, while its yaunted
reduction of the debt has only been &C.
complished by cruel taxation, which
doubles the burden by taking two dol
lars from the people for each dollar. paid.
to the public creditor This scheme of,
imposts is deliberately and craftiiy orr
ganized in the interests of associated
capital alone, and is as certainly, if not
as pslpably, a violation of every pr1ncis
pie of equal democratic government as
was the cognate policy of The. same party:
by which two hundred millions o acres
of the peoples homestead lands have.
been given away to railroad cmpora-
tions. This cunningly devised scheme

That's correct doctrine, and upon it
the Democracy of Indiana, Ohio and
Pennsylvania defeated the Radicals, on
the white vote, on, the 1lthult. There
is nothing in those elections to encour:
age the Radical party, but much to en-
courage the Democracy of the country.

The Radical Reform 1lumbug.

e. = o = 81 j H
Tho Cincinnati Gazette's Washington
correspondent goes through the preten-
deds,reform, prated about so much by
the Radicals just before the election OF
GRANT to the Presidency,in this forcible
style:
"In every practical sense, the flag lof
reform raised amid the plaudits of the
nation at his Inauguration has been haul
ed down; and that, too, by dishonest
men; AND, more shameful still, by the
Presidents own order
That's Radical authority. Did the
Democrats not. tell the people that the
Cry of Reform was only a mask under
which the Radicals expected to retain
power and double their stealings? The
Radicals in turn, treated Democratic
statements with levity and jeers, and de-
clared they meant Reform; and by So
doing deceived voters into supporting
GRANT.
Which party told the people the plain,
honest truth?
