'When the Independents lifted Olsen

From the Cincinnati Commercial.

That the Democratic party has failed
to improve its opportunities is clear to
all intelligent observers. The worst in
stead Of the best of the party comes to
the front, and it is the restoration of the
Bourbons-not even the Orleanists. but
the regular old Legitimists, Ultramon-
tanes, the ineapables of other days-that
is proposed. The Democratic party by
the election of a mere Confederate in
Missouri, and a mere Copperhead in
Connecticut, and by sticking to a no.
body with no chance in Massachusetts,,
and picking the smallest instead of the
largest man in Pennsylvania, has placed
itself, as the old-fashioned Conservative
National politicians sought to place sla-
very, in the course of ultimate extinct
ion. The indispensable margin of liber-
al and independent voters will not take
part with that party.

WE did not see a single field of wheat
between jackson and Columbus that
looked like il would yield half a crop.
In fact, the wheat all along the road
appeared to be an entire failure.-JacIt-
son Standard.
IL friend MACKLEY will come up into
Northwestern Ohio we will show him
wheat rs is wheat. Wheat in this sec
ton OF The State, as a general thing,
never looked better. We learn from q
couple of gentlemen who reside in this
county, and whose occupation as stock
dealers has taken them over the road be-
tween Findlay and Buffalo many times
during the last twenty years, that they
have never seen crops ofaIl kinds along
the route looking so well. With the trifiing
exception that there has been a little
complaint of cheat amcng the wheat,
the farmers of this county speak very
encOuragingly of the growing crops. But
we should like to have any one point us
TO any crop that has been a failure in
Hancock county for the last ten years.
And We are glad to notice that our farm
ems are beginning TO realize that we have
one Of the finest agricultural counties in
the Union and are coming to the con-
clusion TO remain here, instead of going
West to endure the hardships ofpioneer
life and raise crops for the chinch bug
and grasshopper.

AE OMITTED PLANK.

The Republican party in Convention
assembled at Columbus should have put
at least one more plank in their plat
form, viz: The taxation of all church
property. As the mania for building
costly churches increases the vast
amount of wealth which thus evades tax
alton adds n heavy burden to tax-pay-
ers, who are thus compelled to contrib
ute to the support of all religious de-
nominations. All property should pay
its Just proportion. The question will
be met in time and settled, and it is
right that it should be. We are growl-
ing over the Franking Privilege, while
a greater evil is growing into vast pro-
portions right under our noses

Republican State Platform.

The representatives of Ohio, in con-
vention assembled, reaffirming the car
dinal principles of their organization,
which have become the received maxims
of the policy of the State and nation,
declare on specific points the series of
sentiments following:
First. The States are one as a nation,
and all the citizens are equal under the
laws, and entitled to their fullest pro-
lection.
Second. That a policy of finance shouId
be steadily pursued which, without un-
necessary shock TO business or trade.
viii ultimately equalize the purchasing
capacity OF the coin and paper dollar.
Third. We are In favor of a tariff for
revenue, with incidental protection to
American industry.
Fourth. We stand by free education,
our public school system, the taxation
of all for its support, and no division Of
the school fund
Fifth. Under ourRepubIican system of
government there should be no connec-
ton, direct or indirect, between church
and state, and we oppose all Iegisla-
ton in the interest of any particular
sect upon this subject. We should not
fail to profit by the experience of for
eign governments where the efforts of
the church to control the state copsti-
tute an evil of great magnitude and en-
dangers the power and prosperity Of the
people.
Sixth. We demand such a revision of
fbe patent laws as will relieve industry
from the expressions of monopolies.
Seventh. A grateful people can never
cease to remember the services of our
soldiers and sailors, and it is due to them
that liberality and generosity should OBJ
tain In the adjustment of pay and boun-
Ties.
Eighth That we demand that the
public domain shall be scrupnlousIy re-
served for occUpancyby actual settlers.
Ninth. The determination of the Coy
arnment to collect the revenues and
prevent and punish frauds, Inns our un-
qualified approval.
Tenth. That the power of municipal
corporations TO create debts should be
restricted, and local and other expendi-
lures should be reduced so as to dimin-
ish taxation.
Eleventh. The observance of Wash
ing1On's example in retiring Mt the close
of a second Presidential term, will be in
the future, as it has deem in the past, re-
garded as a fundamental rule la the un-
written law of the Republic.
Twelfth. The distinguished success of
his administration, which, to the fame
of the patriot and soldier has added that
of the capable and jndicious statesman,
entities President Grant TO the gratitude
of his countrymen.

TIE Louisiana Cotton Exchange re-
ports that the cotton crop throughout
the entire cotton-growing region shows
an increase in average, the plants are
healthy, and the stand is better than has
been securad FOR many years. Every
thing is favorable for a larger yield Of
cotton than has been produced since the
war, with good prices an absolute GER
tainty. Another most encouraging
symptom is the increased average in corn
and small grain, which marks the begin
ming of a new era inSoqthern agriculture.
The feeling between the field laborers
and their employers is also much better
than usual. and altogether the South
appears TO be in n most prosperous con-
ditiOn.

A PARTY THAT IS ON TRIAL.

ken than by Archbishop Purcell, when,
in his official organ, he said: with
draw the support which Catholics have
given tlie Democratic party, and 70 JCIi
fdit in this city, comfy, and State, IA
speedily as it has risen to its long lost
power and position" This was in March
last, when the Geghan bill was under
discussion and several Democratic mem
bers hesitatcd about supporting 50 oh
jectiOnablr a measure. Referring TO this
hesitation, the Archbishop goes on to
say: THE OcmOcratieJ party IS nOir
on tTi0l." " That was sufficient. The
recusant members, thus threatened,
Welded their convictions, and We're
whipped in by the BASH ecclesiastical; the

TIE Clark county Democracy nset in
Convention, last Saturday, and some
unsophisticated delegate offered the fol
lowing:
"ReSolUed, That the Democracy of
Clarke County have aided in establish
ing the common schools of Ohio, nearly
a quarter of q century ago, and having
never waFered in their earnest support
of the same, hereby declare that they
should forever be maintained in all their
efficiency, and that, as necessary to this
end. the common school fund should
never be divided"
This raised a howl, as some of the
nnterriaed were unwilling to go so
squsrely back On the alliance with Ro-
manism. The result was that the Con-
vention broke up in roy, after tabling
the resolution They did not even wait
TO nominate a county ticket. All of
which goes to show that there are some
Democrats who are not ready to join the
Demo Roman alliance.
