Perhaps ten or twenty millions in fresh

ton of the nine hundred millions owing

cities, expect to be as +prosperousis and
extravagant as ever. All we need, the

REPUBLICANS with short memories are
making a tremendous hullabaloo because
Colonel Allen was pro-slavery Democrat
IN 1858, and thought slavery ought not to
be exterminated A majority of them
thought the same way at that time, and
had to be spurred up TO their duty by
Wendell Phillips. and other old anti-slav-
cry agitators.-Cj Cincinnati Commercial.
In his famous letter to Horace Greeley,
President Lincoln, repelled the idea that
the war should have emancipation for its
object. He said if slavery went down in
the effort to save the Union, letit go. But
If the Union should be saved without the
overthrow OF slavery, let it be so. This
was Lincoln's position IN defiance of
Chd8e's Efforts TO the contrary. 1t was not
until driven to the adoption of the Eman-
clpatlon policy, that Lincoln gave in his
sanction.-Nel0Grk Advocate. ~

TRUE-Colonel w. h. Ball, chairman
of certain committee OF investigation in
the last Legislature, which report is being
used as a certificate of character by Gov
ernor Noyes, is out in letter explanatory.
He shows extravagance and prOdigality
among state officials at Columbus. Col.
Ball thus speaks of those entrusted with
the State Benevolent Institutions-"No
class of our people, however worthy, live
as sumptuously and as extravagently as
those in charge ofoar state charitable in
stitutions, and no where is there more un-
necessary expenditure of the peoples mon
ey." He also adds that, with few ex-
ceptions, he does rot think the Trustees
appointed by Governor Noyes to control
these institutions, are worth one cent to the

A. mcGREGOR, Editor.

THERE are encouraging signs of puriti-
cation in the political atmosphere IN ali
parts of the State, and 1t is especially
gratifying to see Republicans vigorously
exercising the right TO kick out unworthy
members of the party The last case is In
Gallia county, where the Republican nom
inee for Prosecuting Attorney has been
guilty of certain irregularities and pecca-
dilloes which sviace his unftness for
Office. The Gallipolis Journal, the local
Republican organ, refuses to support him
and will labor for bis defeat. Caucus
packers and ringites will stand from un-
der. The people propose TO have voice
in these matters. = Cleveland Leader,
18Th.
The Cleveland Leader is high authority
in the Republican Administration party
and of late that journal has been speaking
plainly of the rings and cliques that are
running and running the party and the
country, and Stealing Republican nomin-
ations." In the Leader of the 10th 1t
gives the following:
The Utica Herald, the ablest and
staunchest Republican journal IN New
York, speaking OF the cliques and rings OF
offiee-seeking patriots who steal Republl-
can nominations through packed conven-
tIons, talks hard sense. 1t expresses so
well the sentiment which the Leader
holds on this question that We quote:
1--WE have too many of this class Of men
in the Republican ranks, and they are too
rapidly working themselves into official
positions, for the credit of the party and
The country. They are black spots on the
character of the party, and show all the
worse because Of its general purity and
virtue. Unpoticed or expected as mat
ter of course in the Democratic party, they
are a Political disgrace and scandal 10 the
Republican party. We ought not to per-
NIT this We ought to more faithfully
guard the avenues to political preferment,
and permit none whose private and pollt-
ical character will not stand the most rig
id scrutiny, to be put IN nomination TOR
office. No matter what our opponents
may do, we cannot afford this. Oar can
didates should be above suspicion. We
have such men, who are men OF ability as
well; and these men should be called out
and asked to serve Us. They will do 1t, If
the people demand 1t and Will really make
Office holding honorable by selecting none
but honorable men to fill effice. We sho'd
not be content to take one of a number OF
aspirants, regardless of his moral and in
tellectual fitness. If none who are de-
serving present themselves, them we must
look for some one, who is competent, that
has lot presented himself for office. An
aspirant may be worthy; but something
more than party service should be dsman-
ded as a test and if not worthy, our
choice should by no means fall upon him.
We cannot sacrifice pubic consideration
to crafty personal ambitions"

To the imports should be added a large
toll for the use of BRUSH ships. At the
beginning Of 1867 we were already heavi-
ly IN debt TO Europe, SO that TO the round
Three hundred millions We have run behind
since then must also be added each year =
large additional sum for interest.
Let US now consider our domestic debts.
The nation and most of the Northern
States have considerably diminished their
debts, but the good effect of this has been
more than couRterbalSnced by the reck-
less increase IN the cities, counties, and
towns, and the Iavishness with winch
puDllc money has been appropriated for
all purposes OF government. Next We
have TO notice tremendous increase in the
bonds Issued by railroad and other corpor-
atlons. Then come mortgages on farms
and other real estate, many OF them dating
back to war Tunes. Finally we have The
loans and discounts OF The national banks,
OF which the record Is startling. They

Colonel Of the 39th Ohio, one company
from Adams county e-enlisted, and forty
three soldiers were credited to Williams
burg township, Clermont county. This
Township gave 500 Local Bounty. The

To rejoice over the fall of an enemy
would be unchrstian, and we are sorry
for the failure of Henry D. Cooke, late
Governor of the District of Columbia. and
partner in the house of JaY Cooke & Co /;
but we rejoice that it will relieve Mr.
Cooke Of one embarrassment When he
was in this city few weeks ago, trying TO
extIidate citizen Of this State to the Dis
trict of Columbia and to deprive him OF
the right of trial by jury, no piping frog
ever swelle6 more extravagantly than he
swelled with his purse pride
d" cannot spend a tenth part Of n7y IN

gument he could urge TO show his inno-
cence of all completely IN the District
frauds.
One would suppose now that Mr.. Cooke
somewhat exaggerated the difficulty of
spending one-tenth of hls income. In
deed, he appears to have experienced no
difficulty whatever in spending not only
one tenth but tenths of his income,
and in addition to that, considerable
part of the income of very many other
persons. At all events, if he did really
find it difficult to spend tenth of his III
come we may congratulate him that he Is

1t is quite likely that if the voice of the
free press could have been silenced by
prosecutions for libel, this same Henry D.
Cooke and his associates might have con-
tinued the sale of the District bonds
and have maintained their deceptive com
mercisl standing.
Who knows how much Judge Blatch-
ford's sound decision has had TO do with
prIcking the gigantic bubble?-N Y. Sun.
Some weeks ago an attempt was made
by the government pimps at Washington,
to take the editor of the New York Sun
to Washington city on charge of libel.
After the arrest of Mr.. Dana the case was
taken before Judge BlatchfOrd, of New
York, and he decided that Mr. Dana, Of
the Sun, being a citizen of New York
must be tried in that State. Thus were
the Grant schemers foiled and nothing be-
came of their vilanous attempt to
throttle the liberty of the press.

A WESTERN paper suggests, that the

Remote Causes OF the Panau.

Before we apply desperate remedies we
should understand the nature Of the dis
ease. We have maintained and still in
sist that an initiation of tbe. legal tender
circulation is no cure for The malsdy that
attic Us. This will appear If we 60 back
and examine into the remote caases--not
so very remote, after all-Whieh have pro-
duced the present state OF things. We are
bound to suffer for our foilies. Imitation
may postpone for a short time the day of
reckoning, but that day will surely come
The trouble with us is our immense
mass of indebtedness, both foreign and
domestic. 1t must never beforgoJten that
by far the larger part of that indebted
ness Is the direct effect of the initiation cf
our currency. The payment OF debts has
always been troublesome, yet it is the on
ly honest way Of getting rid Of them. Pri-
vatlon and suffering must be endured or
the money cannot be saved with which TO
make the necessary disbursements. And
now let US calmly consider how we came
to be SO much in debt, and take a look at
theledger.
In the first place we will glance at our
indebtedness. From the year ended June
30, 1868, to the year ended June 80, 1878,
our imports rapidly and steadily increased
IN value, as follows:
