The Catholic Question.

The Cincinnati Commercial pro-
fesses not to have any fear of the
Pope's big toe, but hits the nail on
the head whom it says:
The st. Louis Times is mistaken
when it supposes that the seetarian
feeling aroused in Ohio over the Geg-
han bill was excited chiefly by the
matter of the bill itself. Pending its
consideration, Mr. Geghan wrote an
open letter, in which he declared
that the Catholics had "a prior
claim on the Democratic party" the
claim consisting in the fact that the
party received the Catholic vote.
The Catholic Telegraph also came to
the support of the bill, with the dec
laration that, if the Legislature pass
ed it the Catholic vote of the State
would be given solidly to the Demo
cratic ticket this fall. 1t is this
open recognition of alliance between
the party and church that has stirred
the feeling of the people, and made
them suspicious that the party is to
be manipulated by The church for
objects far worse than those contem-
plated in the Geghan bill.

Politics of the Day.

will CALI attention to self evi-
dent truth, that may at first glance
seem to be abstract, or separate from
the politics of the day. It is this j.:
Men love power. This truth applies
as individuals and as parties, and is
at once seen to be true.
Is it right to love power, or is it
wrong? The answer may be, it is
right at times, and at other times
wrong. If men or parties love pow
er, not for selfish purposes, but for
the sake of general usefulness, it is
right. If they love power for the
sake of power, or merely to promote
their own selfish purposes, then it is
wrong.
am aware of the truth uttered
by VIM. HI. Seward, that men are
moved to action by ''mixed motives;
that no man or party is perfect; no
one is wholly good or wholly evil
With this qualifying idea l do not
hesitate to declare, that since the
administration of President Jackson,
the Democratic party, or rather
the leaders of the party, stand pre-
eminent for their love of power for
the sake of power, and for their dis
regard of the prospective, permanent
and general welfare of the people
This intense passion of the love of
power rules them with rod of iron,
and like the rod of Aaron, smothers
up candor, fairness, justice, decency
and all minor considerations.
The doctrine of Notification, or the
right of State to prevert the opera
ton of law of Congress within its
limits, did not have the effect to unite
all the slave States in its support
Kentucky, Missouri, Louisiana, and
some other States, opposed it or
kept aloof from its support. Wings
of the South acted with their brother
Wings of the North, and Democrats
of the North and South continued to
operate and harmonize with each
other. It was thus seen that the
doctrine of Notification had failed
of its intended effect.
South Carolina was in the lead,
and had not far to go to find q more
potent and available subject for agi-
tation, The institution of slavery
was in no danger from any intended
interf, renee from any Northern
State. Northern statesmen, of both
the Wing and Democratic par
ties, everywhere, proclaimed their
fixed resolution to stand firmly by
the compromises of the Federal Con-
stitution. Such assurances, however,
were not allowed to reach the minds
of the great masses of the Southern
people. They were ignorant and
passionate, easily managed and
wholly controlled by the politicians
They were timid and fearful, because
they knew thai slavery was wrong
of gigantic proportions. Jefferson
had said in regard to it, Il tremble
for my country when L remember
that God is just"
The foregoing remarks are intend
ed to be Introductory, 1 will furnish
another communication in time for
insertion in the next paper.

Ross CoUNTY.-A Cincinnati Com
mercial correspondent visiting Chilli
cothe, in speaking of Allen and Ross
county, says:
1 am told here that his vote in Oe-
tober will be likely to fall a little be-
low whati it did two years ago. Then
many Republicans voted for him for
reasons of ancient friendship, who
will not do it now because of the
overwhelming Importance of the fl
nancial issue. Then there are many
hard-money Democrats who are luke
warm, and who either will not vote
at all or in dead sort of way, mere
ly casting their own without trying
to influence others.

The Republican County
Ticket.

Capt H. G. Dawson, of Salem tip,
Republican candidate for Represen-
tative, is one of the leading farmers
of that part of the county. He is a
gentleman of excellent natural en-
dowments, improved by education
and experience. He was educated
for the law and admitted to the bar
in his native place, Uninntnwn, Pa
but at the out break of the rebellion
abandoned his office and enlisted as
a private in the 7th Pc nnsylvania
Infantry. He served in the army of
the Potomac throughout the war,
was wounded at Fredericksburg and left
on the field, and was subsequently
promoted to q captaincy in his regi-
ment. After the war he removed to
this county, and engaged in farming
in the township where he now resides.
He is universally respected and pop
ular among his neighbors, is a man
of enterprise and of liberal and pro-
gressive ideas, affable in his manners,
and possessing in high degree the
necessary qualifications for legisla-
tor. The people of Highland coun-
ty, should he be elected, as we think
he will, need not feel asham-
ed of their Representative in the leg
islative halls of the State.
Judge Norton, our present excel
lent Probate Judge, is a candidate
for second term. Having served
his first term to the entire satisfac-
ton of the people, he will undoubted.
ly be re- elected. It is safe to say
that none of his predecessors in the
office has discharged its delicate and
responsible duties with greater
promptness, courtesy, ability and Fl
deity, and this fact is admitted b.
men of all parties, who have had bust
ness with the office.
