"Independent" Newspapers.

From the Tri-W 'ekly Courier. ..
The following extract from the Hunt
ington advertiser is so full Of truth that
We cannot help but endorse it rerbdtt"'
et Hteratim:
Let us look at the Independent'
papers of this district; there are three,
the editors of two of them we know are
thorough Republicans; of the other, one
who took very prominent part in de-
feating the regular Democratic ticket
in the last election, and who has never
had good word for the Democratic
party since. We do not pretend to find
fault with the opinions or politics OF
these gentlemen at all; we only find
fault with their concealment of themi
they are working TO defeat the Demo
cratic ticket and TO elect the Radical
ticket in the District, and yet the whole
burden of their song is, the dear people,
the bad polititions, and the awful
Democrats.
at is very thin, entirely too trans
parent to deceive long, but very apt to
mislead for while. The cloven foot is
beginning to show; we find that these
'Tndependent'' papers say very little
about any meetings to be held in behalf
ofthe Democratic party, and in speaking
of such as have been held, they gave
only word. of condemnation or ridicule,
while they are merry careful to place in II
conspicuous place, at the head of the
columns all notices for Republican meet
ings, and no matter how low and vulgar
the speakers are,-how great, their
demasogueism and ultra radicalisn, yet
they are commended as all that are noble
wise and good . r-.Fr.
We think that these Independent
newspapers have remainded under their
fiimSy disguise about long enough; and
the sooner they throw it aside and as
sumo some shadow, OF principle, the SOON
er will come whatever little bit of re-
spect they may hope for from honest
men. We have respect for a straight
out Radical newspaper but these non
de cript affairs are beneath contempt.

We publish this morning further eX-
tracts from the speech, and the last that
We will give in this paper. 1t is one of
the best campaign documents which could
be obtained, for is a scathing review of
corruption TOR Radicalism, synony-
nous terms,) which cannot and will
not be answered. He has simply
exposed, in a plain, straightforward
manner. with no rhetorical houriShes, nor
embellishments of words, the outrageous
Civil Rights bill, which advocates really
social equality and miscegenation; the
National School bill of Hoar, of Massa-
chusetts; Credit Mobilier frauds; the San
born-,Javne- Butler Richardson contracts;
the condition To which the Southern
States have been reduced by the univcr-
sal scourge, are all fully represented. The
Radical misrule of the District of Column
bia, and the eXtravaganceS and
short comings of the adminiStra-
tlon also receive proper notice.
The Senator then takes up West Nir-
GINA affairs Comparing her condition
under Democratic and Republican rule,
and ofeourse, it would be supcralous to
say with what result, since, like the uprS
tree, the latter party has death dealing
effect upon everything which comes
under lis influence All of his statements
and charges are snbstantiated by facts
and figures, facts undeniable, and figures
which do not lie 1t is impossible in a
short editorial 70 make fair review, or
do any Justice to the Senator's exhaustive
effort. We will merely state further that
the speech will be prepared i'll pamphlet
form, and we hope will be scattered
broadcast, and everywhere closely read
and pondered on. Especially do we conf
mend TO our Democrats here, its closing
remarks on the subject Of perfect organi-
zation and unity. For our welfare, this
is subject OF, to us, vital and necessary
interest.

Of cloudy weather and muddy water
was too thin. Bass would have to be
obtained, or the Tndependent would ex-
pose them. Long said that he had
observed some bass within live box

they had. Fleming objected, saying
his reputation was at stake, and if they

The boy returned with bottle OF

Shatisr and Long gave Logan money
enough to buy the live box, and last
night sent us mess of bass, but their
experience WAS 30 rich that we refused to
be bought oil. Long. says his invest

he will have to carry'the stock over until
next fishing season. .ui

Ameeting was held last Friday in
Toledo, in the interest of the Wheeling
and Lake Erie Railroad, composed of
citizens of Lucas, Ottowa and Erie coun-
ties. The question was, to determine
what steps were necessary to secure the
extension of the road from Milan to
Toledo. Judge A. W. Hendry, Of San
dusky, was called to the chair, and DR.. T.
NJ. Cook, of Toledo, was appointed Sec
rotary.
Judge A. Kramer, of Oak Harbor
stated the object of the meeting, and
moved the appointment of three COM
mittees of five pc sons each, from the
three counties named, to forward the
work of the enterprise and to superintend
the securing of stock and right of way
Mr.. +. G. Lockwood, of Milan, one of
the members of the Board, made state
ment of the present condition of the
road.
DIR. 7. NJ. Cook and others Of Toledo
spoke of the extraordinary merits of the
enterprise, and the interest and liberal
support it would yet challenge from the
proposed extension.
The following committees were ap-
pointed:
Lucas County-Dr. 7. VI. Cook, chair
man; II. S. Walbridge, Clark Wagner,
David Weaver and NJ. w. Hubbell, of
Toledo.
Otto,oa C0mty-A. Kramer, chair
man; Charles Room and +. Frank, of
Oak Harbor; l.. A. Harmon, of Gratown,
and Christian Hancs, of SanduSky River.
Erie County-J. c. Lockwood, chair
man, of Milan; A. W. Prout, Prout's
Station; A. W. Hendry and NJ F. Cow
derry, SanduSky; and Calvin Coswell, of
Castalia. The meeting adjourned subject
to the call of the chairman of the Lucas
county committee.
Sandusky has increased her subscription
to $4,000 and, regarding this fair be-
ginning, is still actively and hopefully
working.
Norwalk is still adding to her $4,000
to provide for any right of way that may
have to be paid for. Everything is ac-
tive from Lodi to Toledo.

In case the civil rights bill is passed,
the negroes will not be contented with any

CRUTCHFIELD, Radical representative
from the Chattanooga district offered, says
the Cincinnati Commercial, an amend
merit to the bill imposings heavy fine on
any white woman who should refuse an
offer OF marriage made her by n negro.
Whereupon his dusky constituents, fear
ing it was trap to palm off upon them
some of his female sympathizers, became
very indignant and desired to know
what he meant. They won't vote for
him again unless he takes it back.
