Corporal Punishment,

The st. Louis Republican in the following

such class of brutes as we gave an account
Of in our last issue be paid in their own coin :
There is one class Of brutal assaults which
we should like ia see made the initiatory test
that is, wife aud child beating. This species
OF crime is disgracefully common, and the
penalties usually imposed are altogether in
adequate to its suppression. Why not give
the cowarlly sccnndrcls, who vent their fury
upon women and children, taste of their
own medicine? What impropristy would

Clarksville puts In a claim for the honor of
entertaining the soldiers and friends Of Ca
bells Brigade" at their contemplated re-un-

such matters.
The undersigned. In response to the request
OF Gen. W. l.. Cabell. for u re-ui ion of his old

Ohio Election i,

rhc Cincinnati Enquirer, In answer to
many correspondents, says that the political
prospects are most encouraging for Demo-
cratic success, and that Governor Allen will
be re elected and adds. When our party in
Ohio chose the side of the people, and com
menced the revolt against the money power.
we anticipated some disatfeeton and expect
ed some descrtions. But the people are With
US, and the revolution is growing. The Re
publican party has virtually abandoned the
real issue, and is seeking, through appeals to
religious intolerance and bigotry, to turn the
tide. But there can be no revival Of know
pothinpism in Ohio.

The North Carolina Election

The Convention election has resulted In n
Conservative majority of two. The Raleigh
News Of Monday says.
The RAIDS in the State are 10th to acknowl-
edge that they failed.on the 9th inst, to OBJ
tain that victory over which they have since
boasted so heavily. Though the victory to
the Democratic party has been dearly bought,
and the Convention will only have n Demo-
cratic majority Of two. there Is still great
cause for rejoicing in the knowledge that the
Republican party will fail in accomplishing
all that they intended doing when they CON
tidently believed that the Convention would
be under their control We Now believe that
Constitution will be framed acceptable to
the great body OF the people of North Caro-
lima, and which will do away with the incon-
sistencics and all the Objectionable features
OF the Candy Constitution.
