The Democratic Fat Kicked In
the Fire,

After the nomination of the Hon.
John T. Wilson for Congress, there
was some helching and growing
among the Republicans, and few
pulled their hats over their eyes and
got on the fence, to ruminate and
squirt tobacco juice,-looking all
the while like Patience smiling at
Grief. Meantime the Democracy
pricked up their ears and took com
fort from the situation. They saw very
clearly that what was our prospect
i've loss would be their prospective
gain. The day Of the Democratic
convention for nominating eandi-
date for Congress, Mr. Cunning as
President, said they had met many
times before for a similar purpose,
but without shadow. of chance of
success. Now, however, he observ-
ed our opponents are disaffected and
some of them promise to help US
After the usual exhortation for har-
mony, buckling on armor, and rally
ing under the Democratic banner,
&C., the hammer fell, and the hat
was passed around for votes
Scioto clung in an unbroken column
to Col. o. F. Moore, through the
four ballots, and Adams adhered
just as closely to Col Cockerill.
Vlnton and Jackson refused to sup
port Col. Moore, because he had
recommended the election of Judge
johnson, but they nominated Mr..
Leete, who had done the same thing.
When the result was known it fell
like wet blanket upon the Scioto
democracy.
Mr.. Leete instead of carrying any
Republican votes in Scioto, will do
we'll to command the strength of his
own party. Those of the disafected
Republicans who would have voted
for Col. Moore or Mr.. Waller, will
now vote for Mr.. Wilson. The De.
mocracy lost their chance to profit by
any division among their opponents.
The Republicans will forget all their
differences and unite to defeat their
common enemy. The political hori-
ION looks much brighter than it did
week ago.-Portsmoutk Tribune.

@ The Ravenswood News says
that Sam Cary, of Cincinnati, who
stumped Ohio for the Democracy
last fall, asked to be admitted a
member of the recent labor congress
which met in Cincinnati, and which
was composed partly of negroes,
and then asks, "What will the Ma
son County journal say now2" Why.
we'll tell you what we will say. We
will say that for downright, petty,
little lying. commend us to the
item under consideration. There
was not a solitary negro admitted to
a seat in the Cincinnati labor con-
gress. Pleasant journal.
You are too fast, Mr.. Journal. Ne
groes were admitted to seats in the
Cincinnati labor Congress. For
proof we refer to the Cincinnati En-.
quirer of August 10th. That paper,
in its report of the first days session,
says:
There were four colored men also
on the floor, viz: Peter H. Clark of
Cincinnati, Isaac Myers, of Balti-
more, and Jacob Weare (very black,
indeed and Professor Langston of
the Howard University. The latter.
who was distinguished locking per-
son, was not delegate, however.
All except Langston were regular
delegates, and the Committees on
Coolie Labor and on Platform had
each colored member.
You should be sure you are right,
brother HowARD, before charging
with downright, petty,
little lying"
