VIM. A Phillips

Hon. Vim. A. Phillips, NJ. C., and Col
J. G. Mohler, of Sslins, paid Wsthens q
visit yesterday evening, and depart on
the train this morning for the West.
They are ON tour of Investigation as TO
the feeling ofthe people on the Congress
iOnal question.
Mr.. Phillips was no doubt surprised
to find that he has 90 many warm sup
pOrters in this district, and the hearty
welcome he received here will no doubt
longbe remembered with pleasure by
him. He made many new acquaintan-
ces a. well as supporters in his short
stay.
There is NO question that Mr.. Phillips
ought to be reelected to Congress this
fall. No man has ever been elected to
that place from this State who came
away with clearer record than he. An
| industrious worker anda diligent watch
er of the peoples interests, his course
has been endorsed almost unanimously.
All attempts BY political enemies to cast
any slur upon his character have invar-
iably failed, and the people to-day retain
q stronger confidence in his integrity
than ever.
1t is customary that when s..public SER
want has proven himself capable, honest
! and faithful, to endorse his career by re-
electing him to . second term. The
failure to do so 10 very generally regard
ed a. . public reprimand. Col. Phillips
certainly deserves no such treatment
from his constituents, and We feel conf
dent that the people Of this district will
wash their hands of oil opposition to Mr..
Phillips's reelection.
Col. Phillips WAS . gallant soldier dur.
ing the Re ellion, 20 every citizen knows.
He hes been none the less since. Always
fighting for the rights of suffering hu-
msnity, white or black, north or south,
with esrnestness and success, Ii Is safe
to assume that there 10 no man 10 this
Congressional district who 10 more cap
able of representing its interests then he
II 10 always better to let well-enough
alone. than to run dangerous rieks. Be-
fore making change let the people in
quire If Mr.. Philiips's opponents took
any active part in crushing the Rebel,io
II they ever accomplished any great good
for their country; and whether or no,
they have not always been engaged in
manipulating political wires With view
to personal sggrandisement rnther tba0

OUR TICKET.

As other communities are bringing Tor.
ward their best men for positions on the
State ticket. Leavenworth will not he con-
-iderd immodest If she asks to be repre-
sented also, hence We suggest the following
ticket:
For Governor Hon. Jacob Winter, OF
Leavenworth.
For Congress, Is, Dist, Deacon Houston.
II Leavenworth.
For Lieut.-Governor, Tom. /. johnson, OF
Leavenworth.
For Secretary of State, Louis We'll, OF
Leavenworth.
For State Treasurer, James +. Legate, OF
Leavenworth.
For Auditor Of State, Julius Haug,of Leav-
enworth.
For Superintendent oil Public instruction,
Alexander Pope.
For Associate Judge, ii. Markson, OF
Leavenworth.
For Acknowledgement, T. f. Britton, OF
Leavenworth.
We put Gov. Winter at the head OF the
ticket because no other Leavenworth man
has been mentioned for the place, and Leav-
enwortb ouqht 10 he represented on the
ticket.
As a successful ticket must have some
piety in it, We have put on Deacon Houston
and for the further reason that he Is The
only man in the town who can unite the
churches and the saloons. And besides, q
Leavenworth man will adj strength to The
ticket
Tom. Johnson is Just the man for Lieut..
Governor. There is nothing to do in TIN
position but to draw three dollars day
and that will work him about hard enough
Then hes a Leavenworth man.
Louis We'll was defeated for City Clerl
and threatens to leave the party if he don
get something: this, in connection with tn
fac, that he lives in Leavenworth, will max
him strong candidate.
1t is unnecessary to speak Of the fitness @
Mr.. Legate for Treasurer. His proverbia
honesty points him out at once as the ma
OF all the State for the place, and on TN
ground OF locality, Leavenworth is entitle'
To something.
Mr.. Haug is suggested for Auditor, liz
cause it is necessary to have man in tina
place who could work in harmony wit
the Treasurer, and the two men We hav
named for these places, would always he II
full accord. Residing in Leavenworth give
him - additional claim.
For Associate Judge We have suggeste'
Mr.. Markson. The fact that he has beeI
for many years connected with the bank
rupt court would he a sufficient arsumen
in his behalf, even though he didn't live II
Leavenworth.
The fitness Of Mr. Britton for the position
of Attorney General, is due mainly TO hi
connection with Markson, and it would ma
the symmetry of the ticket to separate
them. And in addition to this Leaven
worth thinks she is entitled TO something.
For Superintendent OF Public instruction
we nave named AIehaifuel 1"fS, anu We "'
this that the candidate for Congress may
not feel lonely. The fact that he doesn't
live in Ieavenworth shows that We are dis
posed to give other localities a chance. Mr.
Pope is somewhat dead, but this is no ar
gumeat against man on this tcket-i
rather proves his fitness for the place.
We intended to put on George Spry 10
Attorney General, but upon learning that h
was the man who wrote those immortal joke
for the Commercial We concluded TO reserv
him for L. 5. Senator.

TOO GOOD TO KEEP.

A good story at the expense OF the good
Deacon has jsst leaked out We oughtn'i
to tell it, but its too good to keep. He was
out on an electioneering tour last week, and
being beyond the railroad limits was cross
ing the country by stage. AT one point in
the journey he was the only passenger, and
therefore, as there were no votes TO he made
on the inside of the coach, he climbed up on
TO the box 10 ride with the driver, and 'pu'
in word" he approached the subject
rather cautiously, and commenced by asking
4 few questions about county politics, where
upon Jehu gave expression to his opinion Of
the local politicians of that vicinity in very
forcible terms, declaring the whole lot OF
them to be "A pack OF thieves" and saying
they had stolen everything in the county.
well" saws the Deacon, "why don't you do
as we do with such fellows in our county
send them to the peaiientiary?' Jehu in
quired what county he was from, and, when
informed, seemed very much surprised that

this, that and the other, all well-known citi-

ating public funds to private uses-"instead
of sending them to the penitentiary," said
he, "you elect them to Office; and there's

hundred thousand dollars when he was L. 6.

discovered that the sun was too hot to make
an outside seat enjoyable, AM 60, ints the
coach.

to lack the essential element OF truth, We
add, by way Of postscript, that the driver

from Watervil!e TO Washington.

OrR thanks are due TO the St Louis GLOBE
Tor the information which it so kindly ten
ders us. 10 the effect that the Course of
Time was written by ore Pollok, and not
by Mr. Pope. The Globe means well, and
We appreciate Its good intention, but its as
sertios raises the issue direct between the
Globe and Deacon Houston, and makes 1t
necessary for us to take sides. The Globe
man is a stranger TO us, and for aught We
know may be gay deceiver, but We are ac-
auainted with the Deacon and know he
can be trusted, therefore We shall stand by
him. You can't Pollok us. Mr.. Globe.

From the Rochester Exprss. |

The s atement of Theodore Tilton charg.
ing Henry Ward Beecher with seducing
Mrs Tilton, and living for period of a
year and a half in adulterOus intercourse
with her, has at last been given to the pub
lie. 1t is a terrible document-terible in
the distinctness Of its accusations, in the
cumulative and overwhelming force of its
alleged proofs, in its corroborative docu-
mentary evidences, in the earnestness and
apparent sincerity Of its tone, in the calm
nes Of its temper, and the conviction of its
general truthfulness which it produces in
the mind Of the public. The story is sick
ing one. If sustained, it overthrows the
greatest reputation Of the country, and in
tlicts serious, though, We trust, not an ir-
reparable blow, upon social morality and
the Christian faith.
