The Democrat is q good paper. but
politics are bad.
Vallandigham's new departure
dose prove little too nauseating for
the stomachs of the Democracy of
Knox county. The Banner in or
der to preserve hamony in the party,
declares that there is no departure"
in the platform though, to the pagan
eye and apprehension, there seems
to be. The Banner says that the
difference between the parties is
simply this: 1.-The Republicans favor
the amendments on principal, the
Democrats on compulsion-Demo-
Gratis recognize the amendments, the
Republicans approve them" With
this construction of the platform
the Banner proposes to 90 to the
people, with the old issues unchang-
ed, but the form simply modified in
order to catch gulls.-Jougnal.

MANUFACTURE OF COTTON.

The people of the South are be-
ginning to realize the fact that it is
possible to manufacture cotton there
as well as to grow it. A cotton fac
tory at Augusta, Ga, has paid div
idends of twenty per cent. annually
from the start; and new one to run
one thousand looms is contemplated
If the requisite capital can be esectr-
ed. The President of the Augusta
company claims that cotton can be
manufactured ten per cent. cheaper
there than in New England.

Democratic Judicial Convention.

A Convention to nominate a Com
mon Pleas Judge for the Judicial
Sub District comprising the coun-
ties of -Goshocton, Holmes and
Wayne, will be held at Nillersb urg,
Holmes Co., On Wednesday, June
2Sth, 1871, at IL o'clock in the fore
noon.
The Judicial Committeeman for
Holmes concur in the time and
place for the Convention, and the
Judicial Committeeman for Coshoc-
ton county will undoubtedly do like
wise.
In view of the reported tamper-
ing by parties from Holmes county
with the Coshocton Convention, We
suggest that the Judicial Delegates
of Wayne county exercise their
own pleasure in attending said Con
vention.
A. III. BYERs.
j. X. Mcbride.
Judicial Committeeman for Wayne
county,
We are not aware as to the lamp
ering by Holmes Co., Democrats at
Coshocton and fnrther we do not
care, 1t is practice so common
in that party that comment is not
called for. AS will be seen by the
above. Mr.. Critchfield. is endorsed
by the judicial Committee of Wayne
in the course he has laid out for
himself. We clip from the Wayne
Co. Democrat Mr.. Critchfield's
card.
TO THE JUDICIAL DELEGATES OF
WAYNE COUNTY.
On the 18th inst, the Coshocton
County Democratic Convention met
and repeated her action of the last
twenty years, and by the use of
falsehood and by practices that
were fraudulent, nt,assissted by cowork
ers in Holmes, a portion of her
leaders again excluded Wayne Co.
from the nomination for Judge by
going with Holmes county, The
people of Coshocton county were
misrepresented. The people of
Holmes county have had no test
vote on Judge. There is no fair
mode left to get the sense of the
people on Judge but by vote next
October. / believe 1 was defeated
for Congress last fall by the same
men in Holmes who have combined
now with Coshocton.
The Democratic organization is
not for dishonest purposes; but for
Justice. L repudiate its injustice
and the fraud of few bad men in
it. For twenty years Holmes and
C0shocton have excluded Wayne
from her rights in this Judicial
District. The amount of her law
business, her wealth, her intelli-
gence, her Democratic vote. entitle
Wayne to the respect of her neigh
bors. Holmes cast 1900 Democrat
ic votes last fall; Wayne cast 5000.
Wayne increased her majority 800
last fall; Holmes lost 400. Her
leaders are the enemies of the peo-
pie. From them l appeal to the yo-
tiers of Holmes. l appeal to the
voters of Coshocton. l shall be a |
candidate as the nominee of Wayne
county for Judge in this District.
The Delegates of Wayne county |
chosen to the Judicial Convention |
can do as they please; but SO far as
1 am concerned 1 shall not advise
them to give dignity to the farce of
the District Convention by being
present.
Yours respectfully,
L. X. CRITCHFIELD.

CINCINNATI, June II.


Mr.. Vallandigham died at eigh-
teen minutes before ten morning.
He went down very rapiply after
three o CLOCK, having no pulse scarce
ly after that hour. DR.. Dawson of
Cincinnati arrived at three, but was
too late to do any good for the dy-
ing man. Judge Haynes, his law
partner from Dayton, reached Day
ton, reached Dayton, this morning
with other personal friends who
were with him in his last hours.
Mcclellan, prosecution of whose
case he lost his life, was taken from
jail this morning to the bedside and
shed tears as he beheld the dying
friend who had appeared during the
progress of the trial to summon all
his energy and legal ability. MIR.
Toilet made his argument for the
State yesterday and was to have
been followed this morning by Mr..
Milliken and it was expected Mr..
Vallandigham would commence his
argument this evening or Monday
morning. Judge Pope, before whom
the trial was proceeding, adjourned
court this morning until Monday.
Mrs. Vallandigham started for
Baltimore last evening. g.called thence
by dying brother.
MIR. Vallandigham's body will be
taken at once to Dayton reaching
there about three O'Clock.

NlNClNNATI, June ID.
Clement L. Valandigham, one of
the counsel for the defense of Thos.
Mcclellan, accidentally shot himself
tonight at nine o'clock, at the Leb-
anon House. He was in a room in
company with Governor McBurney,
and while showing, with a pistol,
how Meyers, the murdered man,
might have shot himself, the pistol
was discharged, the ball entering the
right side of the abdomen, below
the ribs. Which direction the ball
took is not known ..........-.
Drs. Scoville and Drake ceased
their fruitless search for the ball
about an hour after the accident.
They then closed the wound, and
placed the patient on his right side,
where he lay as white as the sheet
upon which he rested. 1t appears
that no one was present with Val
landigham when the accident occur
red except eXLieutenant Governor
McBurney, who has been associated
with him in the defense of Niece
han. McBurney had expressed
some doubts as to the theory that
Meyers had shot himself, and Val
landigham picked up the pistol
from the table, saying he would show
him in half second. Two pistols
were on the table, one unloaded,
and he by mistake took up the load
ed one. He put it in his pocket
and Withdrew it, keeping the muz-
zle next his body, just as it was
leaving his pocket it was discharg-
ed, the ball entering, it is said, near
the same place Meyers was shot.
He at once calculated "Oh murderw
and said he had taken the wrong
pistol. While the examination was
going on he watched the surgeons
at work with eager eyes, and even
ASSISTED them in their search for the
ball.

.YO OAsQUEsfIoN OF Co1oR. Mr. Sumner,
In urging upon the ,6epata'the. consider
alton Of his supplementary civil rights
bill, making compulsory equal privileges
erd rdeceommodations for people OF color
ih- hotels, public conveyances, churches,
theatres, .&c:, ia reported to have made
: use Of the, argument s'that Congress
, could do nothing better than to take this
bill up and pass it as Christmas gift to
the colored people OF the country"
Whether or not Congress might be t.bet-
ter. employed than in spoh Legislation
may be, perhapsJ question; but there
J Gan be no question whatever. we should
think, as TO the Inconsistency of Mr..
Summers position with the very prinoi-
pies Of equality, of whioll he is the pro-
nation ''on account of oolor," as, MIR.
0onoiled with the prohibition of the ff-
teenth amendment? Why should Com
gress be making christmas gifts to the
.aolored people Of the country,"' and
none to the white people? The passage
of general amnesty bill, for example,
which shall be worthy the name-not
neutralized, by multitude of excep.
tions. or any exception at aN-would be
christmas gift" most acceptable to
the oppressed and harried people of the
South, and an act of legislation in keep
ing with the spirit of the holy season to
which Mr.. Sumner alludes, and which
) teaches s'peaoe and good will on earth
towards men," or, as another version has
it. '.to men OF good will" Is the Mas
sachusetts Senator prepared to include
his white brethren Of the South within
the scope of his Christmas charities, and
how stands he in point of s'good will''
towards that unhappy section? What
sort of Christmas is the party in power
who control alike the legislation of the
Government and the practical interpre-
tation and enforcement of the laws-pre-
pairing for the families Of the unfortu-
nate men who in nine Counties of South
Carolina have been arrested and torn
from their homes and shut up in prison,
I because, as the President tells us in his
message, they did not come in and sur
render their ARMS, uniforms. disguises
and other, implements" belonging to
their"unlawful combinations, in obe-
dience to proclamation issued five days
before, Of which they had never heard,
and which through large part Of the
: Counties named could not, within that
space OF time, have by any possibility
reached them? We should like to hear
further from Mr.. Sumner on the subject
OF keeping Christmas. - Bahimore Sun. I
