lima. Mississippi, and Louisiana are
thus enabled to exert in the admins
tration of the government more than
double the political power Of the
Union soldiers in any Northern State.
They also declare that tn. action OF
the Democratic House of Representa-
tives in refusing the appropriations for
the army except upon conditions that
deprived the Commander-in Chief of
the discretion vested i'll him by the
Constitution was wholly uDjustitia BE,
dangerous and revolutionary, and it is
a striking commentary on this evil aud
perilous course that two of the States
whose entire representation in Con-
gress aided in defeating the army bill
have since been compelled, under the
pressure and violence of mob law, to
call on the national government for
such aid as only the army can render.
Il was also resolved that sound curren-
cy, based on coin and redeemable in
coin, is essential to the prosperity of
the people, and they therefore demand
that on the resumption of specie pay
nent the promise OF the national gov
eminent be kept in an honest and
straightforward manner. and that no
backward or step >idewise be taken.
The resolutions oppose any further
land grants or subsidies for railroads
by the general government, favor such
incidental protection and development
of the country as the best system of
revenue may rightfully and properly
afford; also favor wise and salutary
measures tending to the publication,
integrity, and independence of the
civil service, and declare that nonsecta-
rian education must be continued.

JOSEPH E. LURRNs, Republican can
didate for School Commissioner in
Ohio, and Mr.. Burns, the Democratic
candidate, lived as boys on the same
eighty acres of land near Hopkins
vile. The parents of Lukens moved
into one cabin when he was six weeks
old, and about the same time the par
ents of Burns moved into a cabin near
when their boy was six weeks old. The
boys grew up together Lukens serv-
ed as a soldier in the Union army /;
Burns as a soldier in the rebel army.
Lukens is a teacheI of large experience,
and there ought not be much doubt of
bis election, nor should there be any
doubt as to whether you will vote for
one who distinguished himself in the
Union army, or one who endeayored
to establish the fortunes of the rebel
confederacy.

TO attend court at specified sessions,
from day to day, awaiting their turn,
nor witnesses be Obliged to renainaway
from business days before they are
wanted TO testify. As an accomInoda-
ton to the public and as les>ening of
the costs Of obtaining justice or right
ing wrongs, administering speedy jus
tice to the wrong doer, and vindicat-
ing the rights of society, the roposed
change Is much to be desired over the
present system. If the voters will
carefully read the proposed act. they
will not find in it multiplicity of
ambiguous words nor a superabuud
ance of ''technicalities We believe
the act was introduced for the b .pefit
of the public generally. We do not
believe it will ''tend to diminish liti-
gation"-it would require change III
human nature to do that-but believe
it will secure speedier justice" it
will not ''lessen taxes" though we
believe it will lessen the expenses OF
the public; it will not reduce the
number of cur lawyers" though it may
reduce their fees by obliging them to
promptly dispose of the cases before
court. instead of permitting them TO
"drag their slow lengths along" to
the worry of their clients. But look
at the matter, pro and con. and decide
the question upon its merits. We have
no desire to influence any against their
Judgment. We would avoid the use
of courts by advising all to be good
citizens, obey the laws, violate no con-
tracts, Go just exactly as you agree, but
at the same time have the machinery
in order so that it there is wrong doer
in society, he may be brought to speedy
punishment, and the rights of society
be vindicated without delay.

THE WAR

The Russians MAINTAIN their position
near Plevna, and on the 9th repulsed
a Turkish cavalry without material
loss. The Porte claims the defeat of
the Russians near Lovatz. The Rus
SLAMS are receiving greinforcements rap
Idly and now number 20, 600 nearPlev-
la, with force of $4,000 Roumani-
ans near Metropolis. The Russians
were reported to have renewed the at
tack on Plevna, with superior force
IN the 9th, but the report was subse-
quently denied, and the statement
made that they were still fortifying
and awaiting reinforcements. Much
sickness prevails among the Russians,
owing to irregularity of rations and
poor sanitary regulations, and the
latest reports say cholera has made its
appearance in the Russian camps. Ap-
paling news comes with the reports of
Tuesday. Thousands of women and
children are homeless, and are perish
ing for want of food, in the towns
which have been ravaged by the Bashi
Bazonks and the Bulgarians. 1t is
proposed to establish a city of refuge
to be under a neutral flag. A number
of villages have been burned by the
Russians.
la six villages that were destroyed
thus, it is said 1170 men and 3100 We
men perished. Other villages were
abandoned by the inhabitants. and s.
900 houses were consigned to the
flames Kartova is reported as reta-
ken by the Turks and the Bulgarians
disarmed. Eski Saghra, recaptured
by the Turks, was destroyed by fire
July 31st, and all Christians who re-
mained in doors we're burned. Those
who left their houses were instantly
shot down. In that district and the
Tcbirp district 400 schools and colleges
and 80 churches were destroyed, and
from IL, 900 to 5000 Christians per-
ished.
