In speaking of the recent elections. the
Joliet Rep"''jra@ says: Every one expected
a considerable falling of from the republican
majori,ics of two years ago" Exactly so
and so ther, was. The editor of the RpabG-
can evidently has II little conscience left. He
knows that his party has been guilty of such
outrageous conduct in the management of
public affairs that it ought to lose the conf.
dencc of the people, and that there should be
falling of. Schenck. of the infamous high
tariff bill notoriety, has discovered that there
was "a considerable falling off," if not more !
The joke Sbort the editorial from which
the above sentence was taken is, that the edi-
tor Of the Republican worries himself into the
belief that the republican party did achieve
victories.

A correspondent of the Ottawa Republican
is astonished at the evident indications that
not only all the democrats of the county and
all the temperance men. but half the republi-
cans, intend to vote for Mr. Reddick for state
senator. docs Mr.. Reddick belong to three
parties at once ?" he asks with fesrfully dis
tended mouth and eyes. No. But the time
has come when the people care more to be
represented in the state Legislature by practi.
cal, sensible, capable, honest men than by
popinJay lawyers and political hacks and fug-
lers. That's the whole secret The time has
come when polltica! parties must nominate
good men if they want to succeed. Mere
politicians are played out

LECrUREs.-The young gentlemen of this
city, of literary disposition, very DESTROYS of
having II course of lectures this winter. 1t is a
question TO whether the prominent stars shall
appear here, or home talent, or both.
We understand that several of our literary
young gentlemen have been obliged owing to
the misrepresentation of tho public, to pay the
losses sustained by them heretofore.
In city Of the size Of Ottawa, and with its
large number Of ladies and gentlemen of the
highest literary ability, there should be no doub,
that lectures would be most literally patronized
but We must all contribute to their object.
We can a. we'll a. not have course Of lee
lures here this winter, and Wa have home talent
enough alone, and BY Q contribution Of few
dollars, we can attract the stars or meteors, o,
comets from the east.
