OUR CANDIDATES.

The Cincinnati Convention has done well
in the platform it presented, and even bet
ter in the names it has given the country
as the opponents of the principles proclaim
ed therein. From every State of the Union
there comes the most gratifying evidence
of the satisfaction and enthusiasm with
which the nominations are received. With
the names of HAYES and WHEELER in
scribed upon our Republican banners, the
campaign upon which we are entering will
be an aggressive and victorious one. In
the high personal character, unblemshed
record and unassailable political reputation
of its nominees, the Republican party of
the nation can claim new lease of power,
with such guarantees of good faith as the
great majority of the voters of the nation
will accept.
No element of the great National Repub-
lcan party will be missing at the polls
this Fall. Harmonized and united under a
leadership Of such general acceptability,
Liberals" will vie with Independents in
securing its success, and they, in turn,
joined by the great army of Regulars, will
raise higher the grand column of Republ-
canism, on which patriotism has inscribed
with both pen and sword, the story of it's
achievements. Conspicuous among these
inscriptions is the record of Ohios soldier
Statesman, whom grateful nation claims
as her own, and upon whom it's highest
civic honors soon will be conferred, at the
hands of the party which, ere this, has
saved the Union, emancipated the slave, and
defended the public credit against the de-
signs and Vaccinations of those now again
seeking national control.

1t would be difficult to calculate the
amount of Democratic editorial matter )"
that was ruthlessly consigned to the waste
paper basket, on Friday last, after the an
nouncement of the nomination of Governor
Hayes at Cincinnati. Wit, sarcasm, de-
traction and defamation, clothed in the
thousand and one Protean CARDS in which
such editorial inspirations take shape and
form, lay in one confused mass, DER which
disappointed "organ grinders sighed and
sobbed. Editors of high degree, and edi-
tors of low political estate, united in one
common wall of woe, as they saw consign-
ed to an unwelcome oblivion, their we'll
cherished intellectual bantlings, conceived
in editorial iniquity, and born in political
sin. Niobe, all clothed in tears, was not
by half so lachrymose as they Even the
dramatic Clymer as he stood at the bar of
the Senate, smiling and sobbng at the
story of Belknap's disgrace, was happy
man compared with Democratic editors
with no Blaine over whom to mourn. How

WELCOME WINSLOW.

The President addressed a message to
Congress, on Tuesday, relative to the VIC
lation, by Great Britain, of the extradi-
ton treaty of 1912, by the release of Win
slow, the noted forger. The position taken
by our Government is the only one com
patible with national honor and dignity
That this disregard of the provisions of an
existing treaty by England involves seri-
Gus and inexplicable violation of interna-
tlonal comfy is fact, the responsibility
Tor which does not rest with our Govern
ment. The position taken by the British
Ministry is not only untenable in law and
IN precedent, but is generally condemned
even by the English press. The London
Daily Neecs, commenting on the release of
Wlnslow, remarks that "Lord Derby's
demand that a prisoner shall not be tried
on different state of facts from those
proved in the surrenderng country, pro-
ceeds from an unwarrantable assumption
We are not bound to watch over the ad
mlnistration of justice in other countries,
their tribunals may he trusted to deal pro
perry with crimes committed within their
.jurisdiction''
That astute English lawyers should sud
denly discover, in the case of Winslow. the
paramount obligation due an act of Parlia-
ment, which has, for more than five wears.
been differently interpreted in analogous
cases, is surprising, to say the least of it,
The provisions Of this act, passed in 1870
were at the time Brought to the notice of
our Government.
The English Government was at that
time advised of the Interpretation rendered
its provisions at Washington, as giving
6 continued effect to the existing engage
ments under the treaty of 1912 for the
extradition of criminals The English
authorities expressed no dissent at the
time to the meaning then given the act of
Parliament of 1870 by our Government
but both Cove rnments continued to make
acquisitions and grant sun enders Of crmi-
nals until, by the recent Interpretation

that it is hardly worth mentioning. They
charge Gov. Hayes with having received
