In state of peace the South German
countries have an independent existence,
but during war they become practically
part Of the Prussian Power. War, then,
effectively joins South Germany to the

The Chicago Republican takes this
view of the war:
The aggressive policy of Prussia" so
much harpcd on by the Democratic press
Of this country, consists in efforts to put
q stop to French invasions by, establish
ing the unity of Germany. IL is the same
kind of aggression" committed by the
lamb in the drinking out of the stream
below the wolf, who was accused of mud
dying the water. The lamb was net able
20 see how the dirty water could run up
stream, and was at once "invaded" for
his lack Of knowledge of French hydro
states.
"Prussian aggression consists in the
people OF that country mirdipg their own
business. and letting France alone. But
Napoieon sets up in justification that
Prussia may get powerful enough to be-
come aggressive, and If it does not, will
ct least prevent France from committing
agressicns upon it, which is not to be
thought of, and is goc3 ground for var.
Uniting Germany into great, compact
nation, is where the aggression" makes
its appearance. The Prussian lamb must
not drink from the Rhine, for fear i. ill
muddy the VOLTS water on the Seine.

WAR NEws-The news from the two
great nations of Europe now at war, daily
increases in interest. Prussia, by her
unparalleled energy, shows that she has
no superior among the great nations of
the earth. In the space of two weeks
she has called million of men to arms,
equipped them, and sent 100000 sol
diers into France in one body feat
that was never before accomplished by
any nation on earth She hurls this
immense body of troops upon the French
lines, greatly to the surprise and terror
of the latter, and the valieut French SOL
diers, commanded By such renowned
warriors as Gen Mcmahon, are crushed
and destroyed. Everywhere, so far, the
Prussians have been victorious. In the
meantime Paris, the head-center of
France. is in great tribulation. The
French are furious at the news that the
"Dutchmcn" are whipping the French on
their owu grounds, and lay their eternal
disgrace 70 the want of capacity in their
Emperor, Napoleon. 1t is believed in
Paris that the rule of the Bonapartes is
over-that tho scepter will go into other

can see but one hope for Napoleon
should he fight at Metz and win, &c
would probably again be the the idol Of
French people and SO long as the French
army was victorious, so long would con
tinue his popularity. Should he risk a
great battle and be defeated, he will be

The Prospects of the Democracy In
1870.

The glorious Democratic victory in
April in the State of Connecticut. the
sweeping trump in New York in May
followed by the redemption of Ore
gon a few weeks ago, indicate that
there never has been a period in the
history of the country when the Dem
ocratic party had a fairer chance of
sweeping the entire country than in
1870. The awful weight of taxation,
the corruption of the Administration,
the insufficiency of reconstruction,
and the other evils which Radical
misrule has brought upon us, are do
ing the perfect work of converting
the people to the belief that they have
no hope of any remedy except in plac-
ing power in the hands of the Demo
cratic party.
If the Democracy of Ohio make
careful and judicious the nominations
in the different Congressional Dis
tricts. we have every confidence that
a majority of the next delegation in
Congress from our State will be Dem
o~cratic. While the Democrats were
never more hopeful and sanguine, our
opponents are demoralized to a very
great extent. The signs of dissolu-
ton are everywhere visible in the
Radical party. Its leaders are all

qu~arreling with each other, and their
vituperation of each others form the
most distinguishing features of the
Congressional debates and of every
gathering in which they are placed =
In all the States, and in almost every
locnlity, the party is torn into factions
each of which hates the other more
bitterly than it hates the common en-
envy. The situation of Radical poll
tics in the 10Th District and the city
of Cleveland is a fair index of The
State. The Radicals have lost faith
IN their Congress and the President.
The Administration is pronounced by
the best and most thoughtful men of
all parties to be a failure. The Cab
met is a weak association ofweak men
and is falling into pieces. Let us
rejoice at the prospect before us, and
at once commence the work of ofyani-
cation so essentially necessary to Sc
cure a victory.-Phin Dealer.

The Indian Appropriation Bill.

The recent revelations in regard to
our Indian relations show that we do
not pay that strict regard to the terms
of treaties which should characterize
a civilized nation. Treaties with the
Indians are made, and provisions are
adopted for paying the savages money
or supplying them with goods. The
House of Representatives makes no
appropriation for this the treaty fails
and the Indian fights. At this very
time there is trouble in Congress on
this subject. the Indian appropriation
bill hanging fire.-CZeUeland Leader.
The ann in which the Indian
tribes have been treated by the Legis-
lative and treaty making powers at
the National Capital is disgraceful to
civilization.
No serious attempt, for many years,
has been made TO comply with the
terms of the treaties made with the
Indian tribes of the west. Equivoca-
ton has marked every step of the gov
eminent.
The agents employed by the gov
eminent, to pay over annuities, nine
cases out of ten, swindle the In
dians out of their pay by trading
them 'trinkets, whisky and inferior
1t is not n matter Of surprise then
that they should become Disguised

to wreak summary vengeance upon
the innocent persons who arc their
The government is responsible for
peridy, and should be held ac-
countable for all the evils growing out
of a failure to keep faith with the red
of the west.
Appropriations should be made
with promptness, and the money, pro
visions and clothing delivered accord
ing to treaty; and much of the evils
growing out of the conduct of perfid-
eous agents, would be averted.
We can never have a permanent
peace until the government adheres
to its Indian treaties.

The European War.

1t will be seen from the dispatches
published this week from various quar-
tiers that a great European war is now
pending, in which France and Prussia
will be the principal combatants.
The quarrel seems to originate in
the attempt to place Leopold upon the
Spanish throne. The Prince, being a
Prussian by birth is obnoxious to the
French.
The Spanish have renowned all in
tention of placing the Prince upon the
throne of Spain but the Prussian au-
thorities refuse to make satisfactory
explanations of their conduct in the
premises.
This refusal gave grave offence TO
the French people and the Emperor,
who have always been careful to pre-
serve the balance of power in the
the states of Europe
The result, is the recall of the French
minister Benedict, and a declaration
of war against Prussia and sanguina-
ry work will soon be seen. The army
of France is in motion. The Prussian
is also sanguine.
1t is rumored that a great battle
has already taken place at Forbach
hear the frontiers, in which 5000 Ger
mans and 1000 French were killed.
This, if true, is rapid work, and if
the struggle goes on it must speedily
determine the strength and endurance
of both parties.
