The New York Tribune pays the fol-
lowing merited compliment to the Re-
publican nominee for Governor Of Ohio ::
"The speech with which Gen. Noyes,
Republican candidate Rr Governor of
Ohio, opened his campaign ut Columbus,
on the oath of August, was in refresh
ing contrast with the weak utterances
of his late competitor hh the 6eld Gen.
Noyes has most skilfully dissccted the
motives which led to the aloptiea o. the
so-called New Departure resolutions,
and has exposed she msincerity and de-
ceit of the men who professed to APP
prove them. His examination, and that
of Senator Sherman, into the financial
schemes of the Democratic party will
set before the thinking people Of Ohio
in their true light the monstrous fallacies
with which the leaders of that party
have enaeavored to begaiIe thenr- Gen
Noyes' speech is that OF a sensible man
speaking to. sensible men," A synopsis

A National Disgrace.

A New York City paper informs us
that during the past week not less than
fourteen ocean steamers left that port
for Europe, there having been one OF
more departures every day, except Sun
day and Monday, and the average being
two a day. Of that number ten carried
the British flag and sailed for British
ports, three displayed the colors Of Ger
many and sailed for that country, call
ing at British ports, and one foated the
tri-color and sailed for France. The
same journal informs us that all these
vessels, except the French, were built
and equipped in British dock-yards.-
Such is the effect of the Radical tariff
on American shipouilding and Ameri.
can commerce. Before the advent oi
the Radical party, American ,dock-yards
were thronged with workmen, and from
them American vessels were launched
and equipped whose sails whitened ev
cry sea. Now, hardly a ship is built in
an American dock yard, and out of four
teen leading vessels leaving New York
City in week, not one carries the stars
and stripes !-CiR. Eag.

Hamilton County.

The prospects are fattering that the
Democrats in Hamilton County will
elect their entire Senatorial and Repre-
sentative ticket. There are three Sena-
tors and ten Representatives from that
county. Il,
The ticket nominated by the Radicals
does not please the party. The Gazette,
Radical, says of the wire workers who
nominated the ticket: e.cea 'o
"The general anxiety Of the Republi-
cans that ticket of the highest character
should be brought out,were all remorse-
.essly trampied upon by an organized
syndicate of the underhand tcaders that
have so long cursed the Republican par
ty in this county, to control the nomina
tions for their own trading purposes =
Although their slate was brokenin some
instances, they succeeded in giving to
the whole ticket taint of their own
Character, and in placing the Republican
success in peril when it ought to have
been sure" -

To vote for Presidential Electors
members of Congress, members of the
State Legislature, State and county Of
ficers, in the State of Missouri, it is moi
necessary that persons Of foreign birth
should bc naturalized. All that is nee
essary is that they shall have declared
their intention to become citizens of the
United States. by taking out their frs,
papers, as it is called, and having resid
ed a certain time in the State The St
Louis Republican estimates that there
are some five to six thousand persons
in that city who, by declaring before the
proper Court their intention 10 become
citizens, can vote next year for Presi-
dent without waiting for their final pa.
9ers. We believe there are similar pro-
visions in the Constitutions of other
Western States The idea of adopting
such provisions was to encourage cm-
grafton TO the new States.

TAn edition of 1000 extr,

NAn edition of 5000 extra copies
of the report Of the San Domingo Com
missioners has been issued from the
Government printing Office, by direction
of the President, and is now being dis
tributed over. the country directly from
tire White House. This publication
will, it is estimated, involve an expendi-
ture of twenty. five OF thirty thousand
dollars; and, Of course, the Treasury
will foot the bill, The mere fact that
the President had not the slightest
shadow of authority for ordering the re-
print and that the Public Printer had nc
authority whatever to issue the work on
the Presidents order, will prove no OBJ
stacle to success in obtaining payment OF
the expenses out or the national purse.
The present Administration is CON
tinna.ly squandering the Peoples money
and in return expects the tax payers te
continue voting to retain its. party il
power. 1..e1.f
