Utica, and took the cars for a 200
miles journey to this city; yet did
not appear to be inch fatigued by the
journey. Her faculties are remarka-

THE OHIO GAMPdIGN N.

The campaign in Ohio was opened
at Galliopolis on the 2lst, by Gov'r.
Allen and Geo. III. Pendleton. The
following extract from Mr.. Pendle-
tons speech indicates quite clearly
that this great apostle Of greenbacks
is not fully in sympathy with the
wild and reckless advocates Of intla-
tion and reputation. He is in favor
of moderate imitation only. Here is
what he said at Galliopolis:
$ speak for myself alone. I don't
assume to speak for the Democratic
party. Its Convention has spoken
for it. But believe | interpret tru-
ly its opinion and platform when |
say that we are In favorof c0inas the
basis Of the currency, that paper
currency should be convertible into
coin at par; that we desire a return
to specie payments as speedily as the
interests Of labor and business will
permit; that we would be glad to re-
turn Immediately if honor and faith
and justice would permit and it were
possible. Weare not now and never
have been in favor Of an unlimited
issue Of greenbacks or bank notes.
We are not now and never have been
in favor Of Reputation in any form
we do believe it is our highest duty
to fulfil all our country's obligations
according to the spirit and the letter
Of our promises. We are not now
and never have been in favor Of
volume Of currency, changing, fluc-
tuating according to the whims of
parties, or the interests Of bankers, or
the demands Of reckless spectators
but sufficient for easy, active, econo-
mical, profitable interchange Of COM
modities, and as fixed and stable as
the nature OF the case will allow; and
so long as we must have Govern
ment paper currency, we prefer
greenbacks, which are sound and
cheap and good, to National Bank
notes, which at the outset cost the
people six per cent, and are ~ last
only redeemable in greenbacks. n

JERSEY Cry. July 26.--P. Dali
ton, a gunsmith of this city, went
Yesterday upon a yachting excursion
with q party OF friends. They sailed
thro' the Kill Won Kulls to the lower
end of Staten Island, and while off
Elm Park they sighted the tugboat
Thomas Cornell. Four or five of the
hands were on the fore end Of the
boat, and two were at the stern.
The yachting party followed for
some distance the tug-boat, and OBJ
served that the two men at the stern
were engaged iii an alteration. A
struggle ensued between them; final
IL one Of them knocked the other
down, and lifting the PROSTATE man
by bodily strength, threw him over
the guardrail info the water. A COM
motion was afterward observable
among the men, but instead of an eff
fort being made to recover their
drowned companion, the boat sailed
down the bay. The yachting party
started to his rescue. They saw him
sink a second time, and he came to
the surface third time, when he
was almost within their grasp, but
sank again and was drowned. Find
ing it impossible to save the victim,
the party started in pursuit of the
tug-boat, but she gained on the par
ty so that in few minutes she was
out of sight. Mr.. Dalton reported
the occurrence at police headquart-
ers in jersey City, and information
was sent to other stations in the VIZ

THE MOUNTAIN MEADOWS
MASSACRE.

For nearly eighteen years the Nor
mons have rested under the dark sus-
picion OF responsibility for this horri-
bic crime, and at last that suspicion
gives place to certainty. The terri
BILE storyas told by one Of the par
Elephants, elected on the trial Of
John ID. Lee-is too circumstance
to admit Of doubt, and is said to be
fully corroborated by the as yet sup
pressed confession Of Lee. II is clear
ly shown that the massacre was or
dered by the Council of Bishops Of
the Church, that the property of the
murdered emigrants was placed in
the care Of the Church officials, and
that Brigham Young was at least an
accessory after the fact. It is one OF
the most damning stories Of modern
times.

The budget of crimes reported BY
telegraph on Monday, make quite an
array: Two engineers of the Bait. x
o. Railroad quarreled at Garrett city
on Saturday night, and one Of them
struck the other fatal blow with
hatchet. An indignant husband in
Missouri shot man who had offered
violence to his wife. A man was ia
tally shot in quarrel at Norristown,
Pa; another at Cairo, Ill.;anotherat
st. Louis; another was stabbed to
death at indianapolis, and another at
New York. Two colored men ,charg-
ed with murder and robbery, were
hung by mob in Arkansas. In Gin
cinnati an insane husband killed his
wife and then killed himself. Two
other suicides are also reported. A
prisoner disabled by sun-stroke, was
beaten to death by q brutal warden
at Fort Leavenw0rth.

UNWORTHY RETALIATION,

Mr.. Jefferson Davis having been in
vited to address public meeting in ILL
| nois. citizens Of another part Of the same
State adopted resolutions in which not
only those who gave the invitation were
reproached for having done so. but the
most bitter epithets were applied to M.
Davis himself IN the name Of those who
had been Union soldiers in the late war or
! priscue in tie Confederate prisons.
This. censuye and denunciation was
who lily wrong. The war is over. the Gen.
tennial at hand. and i. is the duty Of all
good citizens to unite cordially in the
good work of national determination. Mr..
Davi should be allowed to address his
ellow.citizens from Bunker Hill 70 Cor
pus Christi without interruption OF mo-
lestation. He breaches reconciliation. and
if people do not like his record or his dis.
courses, they need not attend his lectures.
Even error-if he breaches eyror-ceases
to be dangerous, said Mr.. Jefferson, when
ItaoOA - 1eII AIeC W DOAADas 40 -sAoA
come here from Europe to preach mon
archy, papacy and any other institutions
which are not in accordance with our
own, but no objection is made to their
saying the best for themselves that they
know how. Thus far such issionaries
have made little impression upon the
American public.
We therefore condemn il the mos. IN.
qualified name, the persona! insults
offered to Mr.. Davis and to those who had
invited him to yisi: and 10 speak in Illi-
nois. l. would have been far more mag.
nanimous to have permitted him to make
any discourse he chose. It would have
been an example CT how the American
people regard the freedom OF speech and
Of opinion, and would have had fayora-
bic effect in preparing the national heart
for the national sacramento year hence.
We should like to see the day when an
American citizen can traverse the Union
and avow any opinion he may entertain
in every part of the whole extent. But
while our friends Of the Bulletin think
that "it seems as if every effort made by
the South toward reconciliation was a
voluntary invitation to our blatant enc
mics to shower denunciation and abuse
upon u.s." it would be well to remember
that all communities contain unruly and
exceptional men. We have had great
deal Of prescription for opinions sake in
our own city, and American citizens have
been driven from their families and even
slain, because their nativity and politics
were not acceptable to those among whom
they had come to settle.
It has been but lately tina. very promi-

nent Southern men have openly declared
that the two sections are separated by
irreconcilable differences of moral senti-
menf, and that the Southern people should
cherish this division and transmit ii to
their children. It is true that those North
! ern men who have money to lend or goods
to sell on credit are Treated with consider
J alton. /: is is true that those Of our
own citizens who go North or West
| never recklessly express the same
opinions against their sectional antag.
onists that they DO at home. but
from publication and from private cor
respondence. the Yves: and North seem
convinced that spirit Of intolerance
exists among a certain portion Of the
Southern people. and it engenders SINH
lar spirit Of repugnance. Hence there
arises an unworthy retaliation. The utter
ances Of Preston. and Logan, the violence
at Co.fa1 and other unlawful acts, are
visited upon men assumed to be repre-.
sentative men from the South.
We condemn inhospitality, injustice or
oppression, no matter where Or by whom
such spirit is manifested. We regret
and condemn the violent epithets and the
bitter spirit which has prompted the anti
Davis resolutions, and we honestly hope
that the people Of both sections and of all !
sentiments. who have the good of the re.
public at heart. will cultivate delegation Of |
opinion and personal safety to every Amer
lean citizen in every part of the Union.

TEE DIFFERENCE.

I: is astonishing that the colored people
have any reputa ton for industry or order.
The Picaytne published, q few days since,
more than two colum MS Of crop reports
from Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana.
The crops were excellent. but wholly the
spontaneous production Of the planter
who sat in his porch and the rains that
made the crops. 4 few prodigies Of bis
production are thus related:
Most of our farmers will raise plenty of
corn to run them next year.
Cotton is opening. Some of our farmers
are having five and six OpeE bolls on q
stalk.
The feat which follows has never, we
are confident, been equaled:
While at picnic. in North Louisiana, We
heard planter offer to wager that on q
plot OF ground. one acre and an eighth in
extent, he would pick this year four bales
of cotton Of 400 pounds each.
We italicise this to show that it is per.
sonal proposition of the planter. The
wager is, We learn, still open, most prob
ably because this extraordinary planter
has not limited the time within which he
is to perform the feat.
We repeat that not in this crop report,
nor in any other that we have seen, is the
slightest ackno wledgment made of the
industry and care of the negroes who have
made far the largest part of the crop, and
who are themselves planters, to whom q
large proportion of the crop belongs.
Upon this same pr nciple Of willing
ness to admit that tn g colored population
is fitted for social or industrial toleration,
We have seen the most fagrart violations

TIE MOUNTAIN MEADOW MASSACRE

TIE MOUNTAIN MEADOW MASSACRE.
There seems 10 doub: in the public
mind that abou. eighteen years since
company of American citizens. migrating
from Arkansas and elsewhere to Cali
fornia, were deliberately misled and muir.
dered by the Mormons, under the instiga.
ton and approval Of the chiefs of that
superstitious and brutal horde. This
blind obedience to the orders of one man
can be only attributed to ignorance Of
the true relations of Republican citizen
to the laws of the country. The REruB-
1IcAs has often commended that there is
no possible condition of circumstances
in which a citizen is authorized to oppose
the law. He may unite with others to
overthrow and change the form Of gov
eminent a. his and their own risk,
hut Us long as the form of government
remains the obligation Of the citizen
to obey the law is complete and uncondi-
tional. This obligation is not because the
citizen is serf or subject, but because he
is neither. His obligation is higher, be-
cause the citizen has sworn that he will
obey the laws as enacted and e1pounded
by the constitutional authorities. Mr..
Ihurlow Weed is Eeyiving story that
