President.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Enquirer dominates Gen. George w.
Morgan, of Ohio, for President. At
the New York Convention in 1868,
Gen. Morgan, was rendered the nom
nation for VICE President, which he
declined hence the nomination of Gen.
Blair. There is no truer or better
men in the Union than Gen. Morgan,
and honers conferred upon him are
honors given to a man who deserves
them.
General Morgan, is the hero OF
three wars. When the "Lone Star"
of Texas was about to sink forever
amid the s~anguinary struggle of a he
roic people fer independence, Capt.
Morgan, with gallant Company rush
ed to the rescue, and Ike Walker,
Bronaugn, Crockett, Houston, and
hundreds of others won fame; on the
fields of battle. Wien the haaghty
Santa Anna, again invaded thedoom-
ed Republic in 1856, Morgan, led
a brave Regiment of Buckeye boys to
the strife, and again won honor and
promotion. In the late war between
the States sanguinary and destructive
ns twas, he again. took the field, and
displayed great courage and military
ability. In the field of politics. he
has been equally successful. With a
good record, fine abilities and a ma,
tional fame, he would adorn the White
House.

The House of Representatives re-
Gently passed bills repeating the duties
on tea, coffee, salt and coal, and they
have been before the Senate for more
than q month. Mr.. Trumbull and
other Senators have made repeated eff
forts to get these measures taken up
and considered, but they have been
always thwarted by Mr.. Morton. MI

ling, and other revolutionists, who
vote down every such attempt, and

In order to deceive the country with a
rev electioneering dodge, Mr. Sher-
man offered a resolution, a few days
ago, which, when examined, isa sham,
like all other schemes which have pre-
ceded It. After having sq~uandered
four months in violent discussion of
the San Domingo and Ku-klux bills,
to the exclusion of every important
interest, he now suggests that the
Committee on Finance shall examine
the existing system of taxation, dur
ing the recess of Congress, with a
view to propose such amendments to
the bills repeating certain taxes, now
before the Senate, as will simplify, re-
wise, and reduce both in the internal

This cunning device will not mis-

The Treasury is so overlooking that

century before they are due, and the
revenue has exceeded all his calcula-

ending 3lst March are estimated at
500, SOC, 900 in round numbers, and
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1871, at S37e, O0O, 1000. The Treasury
Department recently published a state,
ment to show that the revenue for the
past two e to March 1, 1871, had

These are important facts, and they
demonstrate that the duties on tea,

with the operations of the Treasury.

for the former have already passed the

Congress.

Congress has ut last adjourned.
The people viii breathe easier for q
time. 1t is difficult to conceive how
much more mischief that body could
have done if it had remained in SEES
sion. another month. Its last days,
were days of evil for the country.
Not content with having given away
nearly all the valuable lands of the
people to bloated corporations, and
of perpetuating the national debt for
another thirty years, with all its OPP
pressive burthens upon the shoulders
of the people, it seeks to arous an
other sa~nguinary sectional war by re-
kiDdling the fires of local hate. To
this end, the Ku-klux bill, so called,
but in fact, a new "Alien and Sedi-
ton law" was passed, comforting upon
the venal, wenk and ambitious Ulyss,
dictatorial powers
d This was doney not because the
pence of the South was menaced by
outlaws in her midst, nor because her
people are not just as obedient to law
as the people of the North, but be-
cause the fiat has gone forth that Grant
shall again be President whether the
people wish it or not! .
1t is n law especially intended to
force the rule of the Radicals upon
the country, by driving all those oppo-
sing the venal and corrupt crew who
desire the retention of Grant, in the
White House, from the polls
Never in the history of legislation
has there been a more outrageous dis
regard of truth and public and official
honesty than is found in the passage
of that measure. 1t abounds in false
pretences, hypocrisy, and downright
lying; yet, the Republican party lead

diary act with torch and swordI

To the Point.

During the late discussion of the
Ku-klux bill in the. United States
Senate, Charles Sumner, defended the
infamous measure, when Mr.. Thur
man, inquired whether the Senator
intended to vote for the bill.
Mr.. Sumner, Immediately declared
his intention to do so.
Thurman, said that the Presi-
dent of the United States had only
recently been arraigned, and, in his
judgment, justly arraigned, by the
Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Sum-
ner) for usurping RAJ power against
the black people of Hayti, but that
Senator seemed now to be wholly in
sensible, when a bill was proposed to
confer. upon the President the power
to make war upon the white people of
America.

with Governor Geary in Philadelphia,

reference to Grants fishing excursion
with Simon Cameron last summer:

Dana Explains.

Mr.. Charles A. Dana, of the New
Y ork Sun having been called upon by
several of the friends of General
Grant to know whether he would not
desist from attacking him, says:
AS the subject is one of a public ma
.ture, we can only give a public an
swer.
I. Let him pay back to Jay Gould
the thousand dollars which Gould
paid to the Rawlins fund. No Presi-
dent should let the blot of false pre-,
fences remain upon his personal honor.
; II. Let him dismiss the military at
.taches whom ne keeps as ushers, mes
sengers, lobby agents, and pretended
secretaries, in violation Of the law,
about his person at the White House.
III. Let him dismiss from the pub
lie crib his effice-peddling father, his
numerous brothers-in-law, cousins, un.
,eles, aunts and other near relations
whom he has appointed to places of
epolument and authority, without re-
gard to their personal, political or bus
mess qualifications; and let him rig
orously observe the principle laid down
by Thomas Jefferson, that the family
relations OF the President are not to
be appointed to office.
~. Let him return to the donor
or, donors the cottage of Long Branch,
presented to him as a gift since his in.
auguration as President.

man who yer gave him a present,
and make it an insurmountable obsta-
Gle to tie appointment of any man to
Office that has ever given him a pres
ent.
vi. Let him dismiss Bancroft Da-
Wis, the bribe-taker, from the Depart
ment of State.
Let him reorganize his Cabinet and
fill it's offices with Republicans of ca
pacity and reputation, wh'onf the PEG
pie know and can have confidence in.
In so doing, let him abandon his fool
ish notion that a corporal or private
musician can safely be promoted at
one jump to be a major general and
put in command of our army corps.
VIII. Let him earnestly call upon
Congress to reduce the rates of taxa
