SENATOR SHERMAN's MEETING.-The
meeting addressed by Senator Sher-
man on Saturday afternoon, was much
the largest political meeting yet held
during the canvass and was attended
by intelligent, thinking men from all
parts of the county. The meeting was
held in the Opera House and was pre-
sided over by Mr.. We1eh, Chairman of
the Central Committee, who introduc-
ed the speaker.
Mr.. Sherman devoted part of his
time to replying to Gen. Morgan's It's
sue of petty charges against the admin
istration contained in his opening
speech delivered here some weeks ago,
and which has been scattered every
where with the view of giving the great
est possible effect to its misrepresenta-
tions. Morgan was dealt with candid
ly but effectively, and with the expos
ure given it by Senator Sherman, his
great opening effort appears simply as
a very weak attempt to deceive hon
est voters. Mr.. Sherman's speech has
been published in full in most of the
daily papers, and will be a valuable
campaign document.
The meeting was an auspiciOus op-
ening on the Republican side and will
be fruitful of good results.

A GRAND SOUTHERN EXCURSION
viii start about the Both inst. from
Sandusky City and passing through
Springfield, Dayton and Cincinnati,
will there connect With splendid mail
steamers for Louisville, and there with
cars for Mammoth Cave. Nashville,
Lookout Mountain, Chattanooga and
New Orleans. This will afford fine
opportunity to all who wish to visit
the Sunny South for business or pleas
ure. A view of Mammoth Gave or
Lookout Mountain would of itself re-
pay the expense of the whole trip.
Tickets may be had at the New Book
Store. We are requested to say that
the money paid for the tickets will
not be turned over to the company un-
til after the excursion.

DEMOCRATIC AdEETINe.-0n Wednes-
day evening that political chameleon,
Lew Campbell, addressed a Democrat
io meeting held in the open air on
Main street. This being an evening
meeting we had expected to seea large
attendance, but the crowd was pftiably
thin, and grew thinner and thinner to
the close. The speaker seemed to be
laboring under depression Of spirits
and evoked hardly a ripple of ap-
plause. Mr.. Campbell perhaps realizes
that political apostacy and Inconsistency
are not at a premium in the Eighth
District.
