The Nominee for Senator.

The choice OF Col. Lafayette Lyttlc of
this city, as a Republican candidate for
Senator by the Convention which reason
bled in this city yesterday, will receive the
hearty approval OF those in whose name
it was made. Col. Lytle, th ugh not ac-
tive in politics, nor forward in public af-
fairs, il we'll known for his sound judg-
ment, general intelligence, business capaci-
ty and high personal character. As man
ager OF theUnion Manufacturing Company
he has been for eight years actively iden-
tilted with the industrial interests OF Tolc
do, and in such way as to commend him
self to the confidence and respect OF all
with whom ho has had business inter.
course.
Col. Lyttlo came from the State Of New
York, residing at Watertown, when he en-
listed as private at the outbreak of the
rebellion. Tie bore an active and honora-
bic part in the service, being severely
wounded at the second battle Of Bull Run.
tIe passed through most OF the severe en-
gogements Of the Potomac Army.
To the qualities Of business capacity, in
tegrity and tried patriotism, Col. Lyule
adds in an eminent degree graccs Of genial
ity aud kindness Of heart, none too often
found thus associated. No citizen Of To-
lcdo, or of the District, has n stronger
hold upon the respect of his acquaintanccs
and we have reason to believe that his vote
will not be limited to his political friends.

Tic Bank Question.

The whole of the questions OF bank faxes,
and of taking from the banks the privilege
OF circulation, lies in very small nutshell.
All warfare on the banks is war upon bor-
rowers, and must be paid for by them, and
by them levied on the community. Taxes
on bank capital deposits or loans, must be
levied by the banks on their borrowers, and
by them on their customers. The only
privilege which the national banks have
is the privilege of issuing circulating notes.
For this they have to secure them by de.
posit OF bonds. For this they endure the
various taxes the government has piled on
them. If the privilege of circulation be
taken away, they Will have no considera-
tion Tor continuing as national banks They
can return their notes, get back their bonds,
and thus have more money means than
now. Thus they can throw off all the ma
tional taxes. They can rcorganizc as pri
vate banks with the same means, and BY
this, and by the facility of transmitting all
their money into greenbacks at stated times,
can escape most Of the State taxes, as our
private bankers do. Thus the war on the
banks is more war OF the people on them
selves. 1t is carried on by demagogues,
who either know nothing,.or who design
edly trade on the ignurant.- Gin Gdzette.
