We were quite anxious to attend the
Republican State Convention last week,
but we chose rather to go to Portsmouth
to hear Haydn's Oratorio of Creation.
1t was the first time this great piece was
sung in this State. wilhelm's Opera
House was well filed, with an intelligent
audience. The rendition of this com
plicated and difficult piece was very
creditable to the performers. 1t was a
treat to hear this grand music.
We learn that the Portsmouth Hor-
monic Society will sing this piece again,
perhaps in June. 1t pays well to 60 to
Portsmouth, even from this place, to
hear such music.

gloss and freshness Of yoUth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophicd and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pl,ty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use viii prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling Oh. and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives TO the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
tion of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the VigOr can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it docs
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and grateful perfume.

When in Portsmouth last week, we
stopped at the Biggs House, as is our
custom. We had a good room, well
warmed and ventilated, food well cooked,
and everything in the best home-like
style. Prendergast a Jennings certainly
know how to keep hotel. They do not sit
around and smoke, and permit hired ser

The Xenia Torchlight has Bristow on
the brain almost as badly as the indie
pendent Cincinnati Commercial If the
Republican party should be green enough
to nominate this unknown Kentucky
conservative" it would be beaten fifty
thousand in Ohio. And it ought to be
beaten. The party must take known,
tried Republican, or it will be more ter
ribly defeated than the Democracy was
when it tried the Greeley dodge.

The Ohio Senate last week went
through the silly farce of discussing /.
t. Monahan's bill to fine and imprison
any person who called another a fool, or
said anything disrespectful about anoth-
er. The Senate carried the joke so far
as to pass the bill. but when it came up
in the House it was promptly postponed
indefinitely. 1t is well enough to have
@ little sport occasionally, even in the
Legislature. But when time there costs
the people one thousand dollars per day.
1t is about time that stop be put to L.
T.'s tomfoolery.

coal has been found near the top of the

prove to be the same kind of coal with

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION

The State Convention at Columbus,
last week, was very full, and composed
of some of the best men in the State.
Mr. Bundy was on the Committee on
Resolutions. The platform is short, and
to the point Here it is: y
/. The Republicans of Ohio renew
their allegiance to the republican party
of the United States, and reaffirms its
principles of free government as declar
ed and defended by the grand men of
lT76, and endeared to the people of our
time by the sacrifices of war, and the
blessings of an assured union of the
States. based upon universal liberty.
2. The citizens of the several States
of the Union are also citizens Of the
Nation, and are equal, under the consti-
tation and laws, in all rights of citizen
ship, and are entitled to full and equal
protection in tn 6ir exercises.
3. We favor an honest and economic
al administration of the Government,
and favor retrenchment and reform in
the public service. Personal integrity
and fidelity should be required of all Of
fcials, and when found to be dishonest
and corrupt, should be prosecuted and
punished. And we cordially commend
the vigorous prosecution of public of.
Tenders by the present National admin
| istration.
A. The National credit and honor
must be sacredly maintained.
5. We recognize gold as the true
standard OF values, and the only steady
and safe basis for a circulating medium
and that policy OF finance should be
steadily pursued, which, without un-
necessary injury to business or trade,
will ultimately equalize the value of the
coin and paper dollar.
| 6. We favor tariff for revenue, with
incidental protection to American in
dustry..
7. We stand by our system of free
| common schools, supported by general
taxation. There must be no division of
the school fund, and no sectarian inter
ference with the schools.
s. To the soldiers and sailors who
fought for the Union, the Nation owes a
debt of gratitude; and they, and the
widows and orphans of those who have
fallen, are justly entitled to liberal
bounties and pensions.
Q. The thanks of the people are due
to President Grant for his faithful ad-
herence to Republican principles, and
we assure him OF the gratitude of the
COunbTy lOT bne ulsIln nEuisneu seTNlCS no
has rendered as a soldier and civilian.
10. The Republican party Of Ohio
having full confidence in the honesty,
ability and patriotism of Rutherford B.
Hayes, cordially presents him to the Ma
tional Republican Convention for the
nomination of President of the United
States, and our State delegates to that
Convention are instructed and the Dis
trict delegates are requested to use their
earnest efforts to secure his nomination.
The following is the ticket nominated:
