AN exchange pays the following well
merited compliment to our friend William
D. Morgan, of the Newark AdUOcate:
We are pleased to hear of the success of
our old friend, the Hon. w. ,. Morgan, in
his political canvass Of Licking county.
Mr. Morgan ran for County Auditor, and
was elected by twelve hundred and four
teen majority, the largest vote of any can
didate on the ticket. McCook's majority
in the county was eleven hundred and
eighty-three. Good enough, for our friend

THE IMPORTANCE OF A SINGLE
VOTE.

During the late canvass we often exhor-
ted our Democratic friends, one and all, to
be sure and vote. We alluded to the i'm
portance of single vote as sometimes de-
Gliding the n ost important elections The
result of the late canvass has in striking
manner shown the Importance of the ex-
ercise, upon the part of every individual,
Of the right of suffrage. The Legislature
has been lost, together with United
States Senator, by the return of Republi-
can members from the following counties,
with the majorities annexed:
Vinton, Republican majority 4
Highland, ." 80
Hancock, 80
Seioto, III
Knox, -i 55
Total 287
In these five counties there are not less
than a thousand Democrats who neglected
to vote, aud upon them devolves an i'm
mense political responsibility. If these
counties had returned Democratic mem
bers-and all are Democratic-we should
have the Legislature and the U S. Sena-
tor. 1t Is by such small and trifiing fig
ures that we are defeated.-C5n. Eng.
In Stark county we lose one of our
members to the House by 68 votes and
the other by little over one hundred A
better turn out and more care in three or
four townships would have secured our
two members with all ease and also cleo
ted our whole county ticket. Our candi-
dates and numerous noble friends, and the
Democrats generally oyer the county.

were thecaus of our defeat Better luck

Lewis Book and William Root, who had
been seen lettering around the window for
some time, walkedup to him. Book seized
and threw him down, and at the same
time stole his pocket book. When the
old gentleman called on them to give back
his purse, the robbers ran away and have
not been seen since Rnuseon RepUbh-

Hon. THOMAS RUSSELL, of Boston, gave the
closing lecture of the Mechanics course, last
evening, to a full house, on "The Life and
Times of George Washington" Previous to tine
lecture, the patriotic song entitled 'The Flag of
Washington" was sung with good effect by
quartctte, consisting of Messrs. s. Richards,
J. E. Benchley, VIM. Thompson and A. E. Cut
ting. Judge Russell began by allusion to the
appropriateness of the time, on the eve Of the
birthday of the Father OF his Country, for the
consideration of the character of the illustrious
patriot, whose deeds and achievements furnish
us the model Of a perfect manhood. He then
passed to a brief review Of his distinguished
career, from his connection with the old French
and Indian war; in which he won no mean
laurels; his election as a member Of the Virginia
~house of delegates, and of the continental con-
gress; his selection, through theinhuence ofJohn
Adams, to be mmander-in-chiefofth American
armies; his patriotic and unparalleled devotion
to the cause of his country, and his hopeful at
tribute through all the darkest annals Of our
trying revolutionary struggle, crowned with
triumph which shed immortal honors upon his
fame, and made him worthy the highest place in
human renown, after serving through two pres
idential terms, of "frst in war, first in peace,
and first in the hearts Of his countrymen."
The peculiar points in the character of Washing
ton, which showed him to be man full of all
the passions of humanity, endowed with
strong will and indOmita5le courage and per-
severance under obstacles, united with unswerv-
ing devotion to the right, were touched upon
in manner somewhat original, which showed
that the speaker, although treating upon topic
with which every school boy in the land may be
familiar, yet possessed the happy faculty of so
engaging the attention and feeling ofhis audience
by his eloquent language and charming mode of
delivery, as to impress upon them new thoughts
and new incentives to action, drawn from the
contemplation Of picture so grand as that of
him whom the Providence of God seemed to
have raised up for our special guidance aad sal
walton. The other characters in the historical
diana so intimately and houorably associated
with the tried and trusted leader Of that noble
band of heroes and statesmen, were appropri-
