TAKING SIDES.

Our people are prone to take sides up
on every question presented, whether
they are directly interested or not, In
the present struggle between France
and Prussia, most of the leading papers
of the country take the side of Prussia.
The Columbus Journal, speaking of the
probabilities of long and bloody war
says:
We should sympathize with Prussia
in this life-and-death struggle, because
in no respect has she shown herself in
the wrong, because it is contest be-
tween a Roman Catholic power and q
Protestant power, q struggle between
progress and reaction, between German
liberalism and universal education, and
French Imperialism and popular ignor-
ance, because it IS an unprovoked war
for the conquest of Rhenish Prussia on
the part of France, and hence foreign to
the spirit of the age, and lastly, because
it is a contest between Nation which
gave us her sympathies and moral aid
in our struggle Tor NATIONAL existence,
and one which was heart and soul in
sympathy, not to say in league, with
our enemies. The great uprising in
North Germany, the demand of the en-
tire population of Prussia that arms
shall be placed in their hands to march
against France, the unparalleled ovation
OF hundred thousand loyal subjects of
King William on his arrival at Berlin,
are significant omens of victory for the
Prussian eagles. The opposition of ten
of the ablest members of the French
Chamber of Deputies to the war, carry
ing with them also the opposition of
four OF the leading journals, does not
augur well for that unity of sentiment
and action which alone brings final vic
tory and an enduring peace. France
cannot bear up; against the arms of
Prussia and the moral sentiment of the
world. s i.,t-

PARIS, July lS,-3 P. Nat noon the
Prus-ian forces occupied the following
points: Saarbuckle, III Rhinish Prussia,
and Rewburg, In Rhinish Bavaria.
Both of these Towns are directly on the
frontier. They also had force concen-
trated at Linden, in Hesse Darmstadt.
1t is now generally believed here that
Russia sustains Prussia.
According TO a statement in La Lib
eTte this morning, neither France mol
Prussia have yet issued formal procla-
nation or committed technical act of
War. Each Power hGsitates to appear
the aggressor La L.6crte shows that
both Benedetti and Won Wether with
drew from their posts of their own ac-
cord, and contradicts the report that
passports had been sent to Counte de
Solus, Charge dAtfairs of the Prussian
legation, who, up TO last night, remained
at the embassy in Paris. La La6erte
looks on this fact as one OF much signifi-
cance, and explains it as follows: The
Count de Solus declares that his Gov
srnment does not desire to begin war;
that it does not wish to assume the re-
sponsibility, and relies on the concilia-
tory spirit, the Emperor in accordance
with his Prussian charge admits that he
has been instructed not to ask for his
pass ports, but if the court or the Tuel-
ieries, goes to taxi the initatory and
gets his passports he will consider it an
act of expulsion and will withdraw with
the legation.

A New York letter referring to Wall
street speculations consequent on Euro
pean war rumors, says: GAS an illustra-
ton of the shrewdness and boldness
which characterize these speeulations
in times like these, the fact may be
mentioned that 81 500 was paid, day be-
fore yesterday, for the single quotation
of French rentes, (the first that came
over the cable showing a recov cry of
per cent. The purchaser sold gold
short. and then bought bonds for u rise,
and the net profits of the transaction
are said to have been 100000. When
the dispatch was received gold was
selling at 14f, two hours later it was
down to 12l1. Instances of this kind
of luck, however, are rare, and even in
this case the fortunate operator,as likely
as not, will venture in again and lose
everything he has made, by an unlucky
turn, before Saturday night. Its any
wonder that men who thus gamble so
extensively in money, not unfrequent-
ly die of paralysis, apoplexy and brain
fever?"

THE CONGRESSIONAL QUESTION.


The friends ofthe editor of this paper
have advocated his nomination for Con-
eress in this district. He has thus far
avoided using these columns for the
furtherance of his own claims. and has
now no intention of using them, in the
last issue preceding the primary meet
ings. to the injury of his competitors; but
there can be no impropriety in repub-
fishing what has appeared in the col
umns of other papers in the county
touching this subject, and the attention
of readers is called to the articles on the
outside from the BdrnesviNe Enterprise
and BeHdire Independent.
We frankly admit that we would like
to be henored by being indicated as the
choice of Belmont County, and we would
be well pleased to have our friends fully
represented at the primary meetings on
Saturday next, when this questionis to be
decided, but have done nothing so far,
and we expect to do nothing for the pur-
pose of effecting success. that we will
have any cause to regret or be ashamed
of when the. contest is over. Ifthe Re-
publicans of the County think we could
honorably fill the high position, and
have so stood by and defended the issues
and organization of tho party as to en-
title us to this mark of confidence and
respect, we would thankfully accept it
and do the very best we could not to
disappoint their expectations.

Now look at the above with an honest
eye. For three years the rate of levy
for sinking Fund, ION account of the
State debt, was one mill and two-tenths.
To keep your Democratic levy down,
your Democratic Legislature, in 1863,
took five mills from the rate for the
Sinking Fund. This left deficiency in
that fund, which this Legislature was
forced to provide. for; and the restoration
of the rate for the Sinking Fund, this
year, to one mill and two-tenths, will in
crease the total taxation in the State
probably by something over $500,000.
Here is the increase of six hundred
Thousand dollars" you tell about!
Mark this, too: Your ORDINARY eX-
pences" in 1869, Qet US be fair,) as well
as ours in 1870, both bear a heavy in
crease on account of really ertrGordi1ad-
~ expenses for the Benevolent Institu-
tions of the State. 1t should be borne in
mind that Ohio is now erecting New
Lunatic Asylum at Athens, rebuilding
the Central Eunatic Asylum at Colum-
bus; and this year, making additions
and improvements at the Northern Lu-
matte Asylum to the amount of nearly
$S0,000. i
Stick pin here! Our Legislature, at
the late session, had to pay 81 ,590.02 on
account of your infamous Democratic
Boiler Law of 1869. Our Committees had
an appropriation of $500, and did not
spend near all the money-while your
Democratic Committees of the Legis-
lature of 1S6S-'69, in perambulating the
State on drunks, spent 81 800 cash, and
got in debt.
The Democratic Legislature of 1868
-'69 appropriated to pay for its sessions,
S25l 900, or an average of S125, 900 year,
on account of the General Assembly,"
while our appropriations for the session
of 1870 amounted to only $92, 100. Let
us be fair here again and admit thatthis
last was exceeded by small sum, we
believe about 81 600, so few members
came short in their pay. But suppose
the amount exceeded was $4,000, there
was still a saving of $50, 800 year from
the average cost of your two years of
Democratic General Assembly, 1863
'6S.
Have we answered fool according
to his folly And dare the Crescent
print the answer in full?

From the Marietta Register.
,a.-.f,,.. STATE TAXATION.

Editor Stimson of the Marietta Registers too
lofty in dignity to condescend to explain why
he devoted in the State Senate to increase the
taxes six hundred thousand dollars. Did he fob
any of the plunder?-lPomeroy Crescent.
Is it the second time you ask ?-Well:
To make good the amount you Demo-
carts stole from the Sinking Fund, the
year before, to cover the extravagant ex-
penditures of the last Democratic Legis-
Iature. Hence, the levy, this year, had
to be increased in order to meet pay
ments on the State debt, and save the
credit of the people?
Are you answered, after your own
style?
But will explain SO that there shall
be no chance of cayil by any one. Since
the war the rates of State taxation in
Ohio have been, in 1866, 1867 and 1868,
all alike as follows:
