Poornan at steubenviIle.

The Steubenville Herald in noticing
the speech of Col. Poorman, comments
as follows:
His speech, for a Republican; was in
decidedly poor taste. He attacked the
administration and its policy of paying
off the national debt. In fact, that por-
tien of Col. Poorman's speech which we
listened to, would have done credit to
DuTbin Ward, or George W. McCOOk.
but from a Liberal Republican, savored
iFco much Of the antisHar doctrines OF
Athe Democracy TO sVis The Liberals. s.
The ColoHePs effort, SO Tar rs being a
success, has been faii iure. He con-
WINGED no one by the arguments he
used, and, in fact, drove the few doubt
full back to the Republican ranks. Had
Col. PoOrman used proper discretion he
should have pursued different policy
and not have made his bow in such a
style. Republicans who may lave
local differences as to candidates, do not
like the head of their ticket assailed in
tue manner the speaker did. 1t is in
poor taste for man who has been long
identified with the Radical Republican
party to speak as he did of late friends.
AS meeting it was failure in point of
numbers, and as a speech weak in argu-
ment for the late lost cause. The tick
ct placed in nomination savors of the
old Democratic party, and although
two Liberals are put on for the Offices
of Commissioner and Clerk !. of the
Court, the ticket is of no sufficient i'm
| portance, and will not command hun
dred votes out of the Democratic party
in the county. The entire thing is a
fizzle of the worst kind.
There is some hope for our friend OF
the Herald, yet.

Greeley and the Republican
aa Party.

.aa Party.
The Toledo Blade says, within a
few months Horace Greeley drafted and
sent to the Republican State Gonven-
ton of New York, the following reso.
lutions for its adoption: 90 ISL
In this alarming crisis in city and
State affairs, the Republican party re-
fers all good citizens to its record as a
warrant for giving it their fullest con-
fidence and support in this campaign,
now formally opening, OF the honest
men against the thieves.
It abolished slavery. .lftsa,.

bellion. sVi asori

forces thus required to a peace foot

1t has reduced the debt over $3.50.
000, 900 within the last three years.
1t has simultaneously reduced public
taxation over two hundred and fifty
millions Of dollars per annum.
1t has preserved peace on the border
| 1t has won friendly adjustment
with the threatened troubles with Great
Britain. iire-
Ferits conspicuous share in this benif-
centrecord, we indOrse the National
Republican administration.
At that time Horace Greeley had nc
idea Of the Presidency, nor had he
identified himself with the gang o1
plunderers who under the lead of Fen.
ton, aimed to control the entire patron.
age of the government in New York.
Ambition and greed converted this eu.
logist of the party into its villifier. The
price for Horace GfeeIey's conversion to
Democracy was the Presidency Of the
United States. Like Daniel Webster,
he willnever recefyo his pay, and like
the same Daniel Webster, he will die a
disappointed, tarnished man.

Col. R. J. HINTON writes to the St.
Louis Globe with reference to the loose
condition in which the most important
records of the government have always
been kept. He says that the Declara-
ton of independence has been frequent
Iy taken out from the case where it is
preserved, and press copies made of it.
(Col. Hinton is not speaking Of the
present Administration, but Of the
general course OF things.) The Consti-
tuition is in excellent preservation,
having been for number of years care
fully kept from the atmosphere. En-
graved fac sinli'es of both the Declara-
tion and Constitution are made or to be
made, which will make it unnecessary
to handle the originals. The State
State-such as treaties, etc.-are care
fully kept. Tne seals of all treaties are
of gold or silver, and having been at
one time accessible to the persons con-
nected with the Department, this fact
excited the cupidity of watchman.
Several of the seals were stolen. The
theft was discovered within twenty
four hours, but the seals had been
melted. The bullion was recovered,
and portions are used as paper weights
in the Secretary's Office. The watch
man was tried and sent to the peniten-
tiary. This is said to be the only rob-
berry every known to be committed in
that Department.
Col. Hinton says:
1t would surprise any one unfamiliar
with the departments, ETC., to observe
the comparative carelessness with which
records, of great historical importance,
are left at loose ends. Perhaps no bet
ter illustration of this can be had than
in the disgraceful fact that when An
drew johnson left the White House to
give place to the present incumbent.
every scrap Of paper, such as letters,
ETC., was carried off or destroyed, ex-
cept one, and that was so notable doc.
ument that it would seem to have been
left by mistake. l allude to the two
letters of General Robert E. Lee. some
time ago inserted in one of my letters,
addressed first to u. s. Grant, and by
him indorsed and sent to Andrew
johnson. One OF these letters was an
application for pardon and the other
a statement OF United States Judge I'm
derwood'sattempt to have Lee indicted
