ahead of his class. and with his habits of industry
and strict Observance of the rules of propriety, lad
earned a good name. one of the most essential
qualifications for useful manhood. How sad il is
then, to kind, affectionate and hopeful parents and
friends, for one 50 young and with SO bright a fu-
ture, to be thus early taken from them ? None

Store. in the room a few doors East
of the "American Hotel" and propose
to furnish the citizens of Eaton with

well tested and never found wanting.

ceptionable to Democrats, so far as
they go, but gave the organization nc
name. AT a Ratification meeting held
at Cincinnati, a few days afterward.
the organization assumed the name OF
the peoples Party"
Thus matters stood when the Con-
vention of the 9th of August met at
Columbus. Here it was at once APP
parent, that whatever opinions may
have been entertained by some up to
that time, in reference to a change of
name, it was certain that the old DEM
ocratic organization, rendered firm
and compact by its past confiicts-its
triumphs-its defeats-its past days of
prosperity and its present days of ad-
versity-had no idea of abandoning
its long cherished principles, or the
name under which it had so long bat
tied for those principles. Every coun-
ty in the State was fully represented.
In the days of its greatest prosperity,
it never showed a more thorough dis
cipline and organization. No olsen
tegration had taken place-no conf
dence lost OIL betrayed, by either the
name or the organization. No reason
was therefore apparent, indicating
any aus for change of name or Or
ganization. Under these circumstan-
ces the grand old party moved on as
of old, and put forward its declara-
ton of principles, which are publish
ed elsewhere, and proceeded to place
in nomination a ticket that challenges
fair and honorable criticism. To the
old Democrats it is not necessary to
say who "Old Billy Allen" is. Years
ago they have every one heard his
clarion voice and seen his eagle eye,
as he publicly proclaimed the great
principles of government, which fired
the enthusiasm of his youth and now
constitutes the strength and wisdom
of his matured manhood. To young
Democrats we say, you could have no
leader of whom you should be more
proud. No banner set up on the
walls of Constitutional Liberty could
bear a name justly entitled to
your admiration and reverence than
that of WILLIAM ALLEN.
The other anne on the ticket, are
those Of good and reliable men. wor-
thy of the confidence and suffrage of
any man who wishes his country well.
Let the work of organization COM
Let old men direct; young men you
must 90 to work. The burdens and
responsibilities of government must
soon be cast on your shoulders-pre-
pare for them thoroughly, read tie
Constitution over and over again
read the comments of mel who have
studied it learn what powers the
people have granted for the sake of
good Government-and what powers
they have reserved to themselves for
the preservation of their liberties.
Become judges of your individual
rights i'll these respects, so that you
may be prepared t. resist aggressions
on the one hand, and insist upon your
Constitutional rights on the other.
Organize! organize! and let victo-
rY be Your Watchword.

1t is stated at the internal revenue bu-

4,500 persons paid special tax as dealers in

The government has ordered the work of
extending the slackwater navigation on the
Monongahela river from New Geneva to
Morgantown, West Virginia, to be com

Major William E. Merrill, of the United

securing such title.
Some of the postmasters who receive

their desire to the postmaster-general of
receiving their pay but once year. The
quarterly payments of $1.25 are, accord

this class, spent foollshly, but if they can
only secure their years salary at one time,

Henric0 Wines-Dr. McCarty.
From our Travelling Correspondent

, WASHINGTON, April 81, 1878.
As a good deal of interest is manifested
on the subject Of native wines and wine
making in Virginia, / wish to present some
testimony in favor Of the excellent wines,
made by DR.. McCarty, of your city,
which through the favor of our mutual
friend, Major Norris, / have had the privi-
lege of testing-several varieties, red and
white wines-which the manufacturer
denominates 9 Henrico" wines. 5
I have had them tasted by several good
judges, among them Prof. VIM. Saunders,
of the Agricultural Department, who is re-
garded as most competent judge. He
pronounces these wines very perfectly
manufactured, and OF fine quality. For his
own taste he likes the red wine best, the
white one being too sweet; but says it pos
sesses very distinct and rich boquet, and
rather peculiar; but he considers they
both possess excellent body and boquet.
( For myself, Iprefer the white wine, as
did several others who tasted them; and
we all congratulated DR.. McCarty, on his
success in producing such superb wines !:
and may they become more prevalent, and
drive bad whiskey, and other villainous
drinks, out Of community. d. s. G.

Dear Sir-Many citizens of this state,

the constituted and legal authorities of this

citizens were sacrificed, and as am
advised that the persons who committed
that outrage were guilty of the
capital crime of treason, and having infor-
nation in my possession which duplicates
John McEnery in the crime Aforesaid, and be-
lieving the state can establish that he and
his aiders and abettors have continued to
maintain their reasonable organization, and
are still projecting and levying war against
the commonwealth, and that the massacre
in the parish of Grant, if not directly
planned and ordered by this man and his
associates, was the result of their treasona-
Die acts against the state government, |
therefore direct you to lay before
the grand Jury o. this parish such
proof as may be furnished you
looking to the indictment of the said
John McEnery and any other person inn
plicated with him, for treason. You will
spare no effort in this prosecution. If you
meet with any illegal or unwarranted oppo-
position, you will report the same to me
Immediately. | inclose herewith certain,
papers, signed by the said John McEnery,

Other papers and proofs will be furnished
you, together with the names of witnesses.

your readers. VT
4 Our city election will come off in a few
weeks, and as quite number of offices
are to be filled, more or less honorable or
remunerative, the usual number of ''Rich-
monds" are in the field as candidates for
popular favor. The several ward Repub-
lican clubs are brushing up their armor,
polishing their weapons, and making pre-
liminary arrangements for the fray.
We had an unfortunate difficulty in our
Fourth ward club, which resulted in split,
and for time we had two Republican
parties in that ward. But thanks to
good councils and the good sense of the
people and the party leaders of both fac
tons, the ward last week came together in
harmony and made their organization, Sc
lecting good substantial men. This ward
now presents united, manly front to the
enemy, that will be inyincible in the day
Of battle. psr
+, The other wards are in excellent trim.
Peace and harmony prevail throughout all
our borders. Indeed, it has been remark
ed that our party has not been in such
good condition for years-certainly not
since the last congressional contest in this
district. As41@ ~ - stss
Now that two enterprising men are en-
gagged in the sale of your paper in this city,
| think it ought to have good circulation
here. Having no Republican paper of our
own we certainly ought to patronize THE
