Cadwallader C. Washburn.

The Republican party of this State
has done itself honor in the nomina-
ton of General Washburn for Cover
nor The party has proven itself
TO bo sound, for it has nominated a
sound man. 1t has made wise and
judcious choice among the able and
patriotic men who aepired to the gu
bernatorial chair Approaching as
We arc "a Presidential election, pI<s-
dencc requires us to locate the ablest
leaders in the strongest positions.
Opposed az we are by IL renegade
from the republican party, the fitness
OF things required that man should
bo nominated who has always been
even with the front rank Of the par
", in counsel and in the field, in
peace and in war--a leader who not
only adopted with all his heart the
principles of the party, but sagacious
to look through the whole vista of
tho future, learn whore our princi-
pies were logically leading US, and
quick to devise and sanction the va
rying measures to promote the SUI
promacy of those principles. 1t is
tho boast Of some politicians that
they stand now precisely where they
did in 1860, before the war. Gener-
al Washburn admits the law Of pro-
gress, Of individual and national
growth, and he stands now whore
the events Of the last ten years have
enabled a true republican to stand,
in favor Of perfect equality between
citizens Of the United States without
regard to color or creed, 50 long as
political rights are not lost by treas
on or crime.
The nomination Of General Wash
burn also shows the partiality of the
people OF this State for General
Grant who with instructive sagaci-
" and correct dsccrnment of char
actcr has, both in peace and war,
relied on Che sound judgment and
patriotic counsels of Washburn. If
our gubcrnatorial candidate is ASSOC
ciatcd in the public mind with the
President, Doolittlo is in the same
manner associated with Andy John
son. both renegades and only nomi-
mated by democrats when they ex.
tect to BIO beaten.
Grant county has over been in ia
vor Of Washburn when she could
have her real preference, and he
leading our present able State ticket,
we promise as against the great apos-
tate, DoolittIo, and his crew a real
Hood tide majority.
OF tho other nominations for State
officers we will have occasion here
after to speak They are men wei
known in the State, and who hav,

threshed, we can form better idea OF the
turn out. lam told by the farmers thstthere
is not more than ahalf of crop. tFhe oat
crop is very bad, but once of the finest pros
pects for corn we have ever had. Corn is
now selling for 40 cents and oats so.
have noticed with pleasure from lntelil-
gent and pointed remarks from time to
time in regard to the Catholic mob OF New
York, perfectly agree with you, it is a
pestilence that is beginning to spread TOO
widely, and ifthey could only once gett that
power all of those horrid modes of punish,
ment so characteristic of that sect would
again be brough into action and none OF
our heads would be secure. Give it to
them, your words will do great deal OF
good. Yours is the only Republican paper
taken in twenty miles of this place. When
it first began to come, some of nay neigh
bors would look at it occasionally and say
"oh, this is Radical paper" and drop it,

procure supply of the South American

learn that DR.. d. w. Bliss, of Washington,
expects very soon to obtain sufficient
quantity to funishr all who may be in
need of it. Hon. A. H. Latin, Ma
val Officer at this port, made applica-
ton few days ago, in behalf of
friend, for some of the specific, and in re-
DIV Or. Bliss wrote, on the 18th inst, that
he had none to spare. He says: II receive
but a small quantity at time, and it be-
ing nv purpose to treat a few cases here,
where they can be under my own Observa-
ton. it will be impossible for me to send
any of it away. The remedy, as well
as myself having been attacked, |
desire to demonstrate to the public
what it will do, which necessitates
the above course" In circular note,
however, the doctor says he expects to
receive sufficient quantity by the 1st,- or
the 18th of August at the farthest, to sup
ply the profession or the public as they
may desire. He says that enough has
been, developed by its use. to assure him
that it is thennost powerful alterati We ever

possesses aspeeifie influence over the pol
son of cancer. "From the statements OF
the physieions of Quinto, and my own
experien ce in its use, Lam convinced that
the 'cundurango' is quite as reliable as q
