The RnIlng Passion strong in penth.

Our fellow citizens OF Bowling Green
are peculiar people, that is, the ruling
portion of them. They will not tolerate
any difference of opinion from any one
within or without the corporation. II
party does not at once acquiesce in any
notion, proposition, or proposed action,
upon which they may have agreed, they
never seek to convince that party OF error
by reasoning, but at once unite in deuounc-
ing, and il possible, destroying him. Vile
epithets, detraction, threats, vituperation
and denunciation are their weapons Of
warfare. Not only these but they attack
him in his business, sneer at his religion,
impugn his morals and maign him in his
domestic relations And all this ia done
with an assurance and impudence which is
unequNlled by any other community. The
result of this course OF action, is the cstab-
lishment Of complete and perfect despot-
ism in that town. Nay, more, a terrorism.
The Oldest and best citizens there, dare not
give utterance to their sentiments and feel
ings unless they are in accord with the
views and purposes Of these terrorists, nd
venturers, and sharpers. II any one vent
ures to differ with him as to the method
Of procedure, or means to he employed to
attain an object upon which all may be
agreed, he IL at once stigmatized as trait
or TO Bowling Green and friend of Per-
rysburg. OF no foulcr ofIense, in their es-
timation, can man he guilty, than that of
being a friend of this town. Malignity
and insensate hate are their ruling passions
and those not familinrally acquainted, can
realize their intensity and force. Such
community Of spiteful, vinlictve- pco-
pie, We do not believe wasev before col
lected together, and from such all good
people will pray, good Lord deliver u.s."

The Bowling Green Railroad.

President BouGHToH, in note to the
Toledo Commercial upon the business of the
i. @. railroad, concludes by saying:
THE best of all is, it is paying double
lts running expenses"
Mr.. BoueHToN has invested largely nc
eording to his means. As largely, doubt
less, as he ought in that road and unques-
tionably feels anxious to have it prove a
success. We certainly can wish no harm
to befall Mr.. 3. but rather all the prosper
ity which his enterprise, energy and pub
lie spirit merit. But if he looks 10 the
proceeds of that road for his reward he
will ansuredly be disappointed. We have
known several short roads of the charac-
ter OF this, not one of which paid expenses
and all were ultimately abandoned. So i
viii be with this. Failure is inherent in
ths very nature and principle of the enter
prise and the result is inevitable. Strue-
giles may be made and money may be sac
rihoed 10 avert the catastrophe, but eome.it
must and come it will. In conversation
upon the subject, during the present week,
with an old railroad operator, of Toledo,
he remarked, "it cannot live, for il cannot
pay expenses and it must go under"
1t was built simply for its influence in
promoting the interest Of Bowling Green
during the county seat contest and we pre-
dict that when that is ended, let the result
be what IL may, It will be operated but
short time thereafter. We place this pre-.
distion on record so that II may be referred
90 hereafter.
The above statement of Mr.. BoueHroN
10 falacious-it docs not cover the Whole
ground. We are advised that the expen-
ses incurred since the road commenced op.
Grating ale at least twice as great as the
gross earnings of the road during the same
tine and that 1t will require the entire in
come Of the road during at least six
months TO come to pay the Indebtedness.
While the road would be convenience to
those wishing TO visit b. G., yet it will
never pay its directors and stockholders
anything, save vexation and disaster.
5 1ms OF the stockholders see, or thinh they
see, the end approaching and are endeavor-
Ing to gtpe array their stock, but are una
bic to do 50. Men will not accept il for
the reason That they fear an assessment
under the statute, equal to the amount Of
the stock to pay Indebtedness. The timeis
not remote when we shall be able to reach
B. G. only as heretofore Through he naS.

Here is another little extract that will
do 10 sit down and think over. A promi-
nent Catholic Bishop of this county, wri-
ting under date of April 2Gth, of this year,
to the Pope CT Rome, used these words:
Within twenty years the Protestant
heresy will come to an end. If we secure
the West and South, we can take care of
New England" This same dignitary said
to his Catholic brethren, call that is nee
essary is money and priests to subiugate
the mock liberties of America"
The letter was published in the papal or
gan ut Rome, and translated therefrom bv
the Italian correspondent of the Journal
des Debates, and was there found by an
American in Paris, translated and sent
home. We commend it to the voters of
Ohio as an announcement of purpose
which many of us may live to see attem pit

The Wood County Convention.

The call is issued for the Republican
Convention TO nominate county officers.
The Offices to be filled arc important ones.
There should be full representation in
the Convention Of substantial Republicans
from every township in the county, that
the combined wisdom of the Convention
may be exercised in selecting candidates
whose ability and integrity Of character
will commend them TO the people Of the
county. Let difference Of opinion on local
matters be ignored We are not of those who
believe that the expression by the people Of
their wishes, in matters of local interest,
need warp their Judgment or influence
their action in choosing public officers.
Let the Republican party Of Wood county
enter the counting contest with solid
front and its quantum undiminished to the
great wave Of victory that will roll over
the State at the close Of the fall campaign.

We publish in another column the call
Tor the Wood County Republican Mas
Convention for the purpose of nominating
candidates to fill county offices. From
present appearances it docs not seem that
the Convention will be overstocked with
candidates from Perrysburg. So far we
have heard of but one from this place, viz
Mr.. JAMES o. TRoUP, who we understand
will be before the Convention as candi-
date for the Office Of Prosecuting Attorney
This office, we believe, the balance of the
county will be willing to concede to Per
rysburg township.

CHARLES O'CoNoR the great New York

that pure Democracy can only be estab-

Leaving every religious sect to establish
schools and manage them their own way.

Rcsolced, That it becomes us as indiyid
ual members of the Episcopal Church, i'll
this Diocese, to be more than evor faithful

ton of those already established"
Resolrcd, That, in connection with every

The Bishop congratulated all present
