ThOS. w, Harvey,

While we regard all the nomina-
tions made by the republican conven-
ton as remarkably good, indeed, we
doubt whether better selections could
have been made even from the album
dant material before the party, there
is no one to which we look with more
pleasure than to that of the gentle
man whose name heads this article,
for the position of School Commis-
sioner. He is truly the right man
for the right place. He is athoroush
scholar, a life long teacher, good dis
ciplinariau, one who has ever felt and
manifested the deepest possible inter
ests in the entire success of the pub
lie school system of Ohio,in the es-
tablishment of which he was one of
the most prominent workers. He
Will carry into his position, great abil-
ity earnestness and q thorough adap-
tation for the business before him.
We congratulate the people of the
State upon the certainty of having
their schools, under his charge, placed
in the best and most useful condition
possible. Nanyf cid Herald.

GENERAL MORGAN, in his speech at
St. Clairsville, made a most earnest
appeal to young men, advising them
TO attach their fortunes to the Dem
ocratic ''car" Unfortunately for the
General and his party. that scar is
off the track and young men are not
generally disposed to attach them
selves to ''car' under such circl nm
stances. Really, young nan who
could attach his fortunes 10 the Dem
ocratic party at this time would be
singular enough. a party which has
been so repeatedly and emphatically
condemned by the people--which has
one act ofprinciples for the North
and another for the south--a paper
whose sympathies were with the re-
bcllion and whose ouly hope of
strength lies in the votes of rebels,
must possess very grest attraction
for young mcn.--Io'cj0 Commercial.

Henry nSpits ON the platform. ~

The Napoleon Northeast, in reply
ing to a suggestion of n Democratic
paper that the party is bound by the
action ofthe majority ola convention
in adopting a platform says:
"Just so," the only question being
whether the will of the majority is
truly expressed, and whether the plat
form has in fact been faisly adopted.
1t would require brave audacity in
lying TO say that the will of the ma
jority prevailed in Columbus, when it
is self-evident that ninety nine out of
every hundred Democrats in Ohio are
unalterably opposed TO the Amend
ments. The resolutions, it is true,
went through the accustomed process
ses of incubation by n committee,
and subsequent hurrah vote OF the
Convention, but how could they be
"fairly adopted ifthey thus grossly
misrepresent Democratic sentiment
and conviction? The adoption" is
the work of the caucns, and the eau
Gus has become so odious because of
its corruption that both parties are
everywhere diScarding it. 1t Is re-
pudiated as means of nominating
candidates, and there is even greater
reason for rejecting its fabrication of
platforms. How fairly these reso-
lutions were adopted may be inferred
from his fact: Two delegates only
from Henry we've in attendance at
Columbus, and they, from peculiar
reasons, voted for the adoption; and
yet, after meeting and conveEsing
with leading men from almost every
township in the county, we have met
with only two who do not spurn the
resolutions with Indignation. We as
sert that of the Henry county Demo
cracy not more than one in one hun
dred endorse the platform as il
stands.

THE south is eviden ly not sufIici-
emily reconstructed to acquiesce in
the new departure" The Canton
(AIississippi) Citizen says: "Two-
thirds of the journals in Mississippi,
three fourths in the south, and FIVE
eiehths in the Unic n. of the democratic
persuasion, are opposed TO the ''new
departure" and as to Mr. Davis
speeches, the sentiment is almost
unanimous that he has as much right
to speak as any other man-certainly
as much as that old incendiary and
agitator, Horace Greeley-and the
people OF the south have about made
up their minds to hear Jefferson Davis
occasionally, if he can be prevailed
upon to speak, whether his northern
haters and revilers like it or not"

The Republican Danger.

Every Republican ought to careful
ly read and ponder on the following
from the Cleveland Herald.
We may be crosse eyed in the mat
ter, but we certainly cannot seas
most of the Republicans Of Ohio seem
to see-that a victory over the Dem
ocracy this fall is to be ''just as easy
as rolling off q log That the Re
publicans will win on the State tick
etis, indeed, more than probable.
But they may do that and yet lose
the Legislature. And if they lose the
Legislature they lose the Senator
loss not to be compensated for by a
score of Governors-and they lose
the power of districting the State.
In fact, the Democracy may not win
ON the State ticket and yet may Sc
cure control of the State for the next
decade.
The game played by The Democrat
ic leaders is deep one It should be
noted that the leaders are agreed
the Democratic State Convention
proved that. The disaffection that
exists towards the "new departuse"
is among the rank and file; it is local,
in counties and in districts. Now
the tactics Of the leaders are Gun
ningly devised. The struggle for
Governor is to be one of mere false
motions" that is they mean to make
believe strike there whereas the blow
really is TO come for the Legislature.
The present apparent discord in the
Demo ocratic ranks is for blind. In
localities where the Democracy has
been uniformly whipped, the 'snew
departure is popolar; for all the par
ty asks n such localities is success.
In the Democratic strong holds the
local papers will repubiate the s.new
departure" and thus keep tue masses
in such locality in line.
The Democratic battle is 10 be
"each one on his own hook" or il
not that, it is to be each county on its
own hook. There is to be no real at
tack in force, but bushwhacking and
guerrilla fighting. This disagreement
is all a pretence. The drift of Gen.
McCook's speech, and that Of Gen.
Morgan shows that These demo-
cratic leaders give their faces to the
'snew DEPARTURE inasmuch as they
accept position of leaders under the
Convention, but their talk is an evas-
ion Of the platform they look one
way and row the other. All this is
perfectly understood. There is to be
no controversy over the "new depar-
ture," you cannot rub the ears Of two
Democrats into q fight; no not even
a growl at each ether, though they
may be diametrically opposed to each
other. The game is to win, and
cheating playing is just as well as any
other style SO long as the stakes are
secured
The Republicans had a very full
Convention; very harmonious Con
vention; an enthusiastic Convention !;
and the delegates scattered to all pOr-
tions of the State sanguine Of victory.
But we are-satisfed the tactics Of the
Democrats are now understood. We
are apt to lose sight of the by-play,
cngrossed in the general effect But
it is the by-play this fall that will
prove effective, and unless the Re
publicans are guarded at all points
they will wake up after election to
see that they have lost about all that
was worth contendino for

now be pushed through by both
nations without delay. Nothing can
be done in the matter of the Fisher.

Tne lieutenant Governorship.

The Cleveland Leader translate the
following excellent endorsement ofJa
cob Mueller, our candidate for Lieut.
enaRt Governor, from the Vaeether
an Erie of monday before last:
The Pittsburgh Folks6'at writes y
special article concerning the nomin
alton for the Lieutenant Goverorship q
of Ohio, Itsays:
"An excellent choice was made by
the Republican Convention of Ohio,
wnen Mr. Jacob Mueller was chosen
candidate for Lientencnt Governor.
We have known him for years and
are therefore competant to Judge. hlr.
Mueller, who took part in. .the rsvol
ution of '4S in Germany, is Il man of
good culture, and spOtlcss character /;
ofkeen judgement and practical sense,
is a true radical, not one who will be
elevated for moneys sake. Mr.,
Mueller is true as gold, and will OK
ercise his power SO that every Ger
man American can proudly say, 'Hc
is one of ours"
There is no doubt that he will be
elected: nay, we even expect that he
will receive a larger number of votes
than any of his colleagues on the Re
publican State ticket, as many of the
German Democrats will cast their
vote for him.
Many of our rca lers know Mr.
Mueller personally +; Others, from the
excellent correspondence he wrote
during the Franco Prussian war,
for the JFaetcher am Erie, parts OF
which We copied at various times,
The nomination Of Jrcob Mucllel

ceding this, has acted wisely toward
