RepubIacan state COmySaHAS4-
The Republican State Central Commit
tee met at Columbus on Wednesday OF
last week. 70 designate the time and place
for l,olding the State Republican Conven-
t;on A majority of the committee fa-
vored an early convention, in order to
give ample time to put the State in COM
plete organization for the canvass. With
this view, they decided to hold the con-
vention at Cincinnati, on the 18th of J June
next. We would have preferred that the
convention should be held at Columbus,
as that is the center of the State. and the
most convenient point of access TO a ma
jority of the people of the State; but the
Columbus people have never taken much
stock in these conventions, not so much
as even to furnish hall for their accom-
mediation, only for a pretty round fee,
which always had to be paid out of a
fund raised for that purpose, whereas the
Republicans of Cincinnati have offered to
furnish a suitable hall in which to hold
the State Convention, without exacting
pay for it, if the committee would agree
/ to hold the convention at that city. This
and other considerations induced the COM
mittee to designate Cincinnati as the
place.
The Convention will undoubtedly be the
largest State Convention that has evel
been held in Ohio. There seems to be
determination among the Republican,
throughout the State to drop all differ
ences of opinion that may heretofore have
existed on particular questions and unit
the strength of the Republicans and d.
valiant warfare against the common en-
emy of the great principles of the Repub
licans, the principles of universal liber
ty, the principles that in the great strug
gle of its enemies to destroy this Gov
ernment proved victorious and saved OIL
Union from ruin.

TIE news Of the battle in the Balkans,
between the Turks and Russians, and the
news that eight Mussleman villages had
been sacked by Bulgarians, is confirmed
by the news in yesterdays dailies. There
seems to be an insurrection going on in
the Balkans between the Turks and Rus
slams.

WE met large number of our brother
Republican editors of this State at Column
bus, on Wednesday of last week. There
is evidently good feeling between the
Republican members of the press of the
State, whatever may have been their diff
ferenees heretofore on some of the great
public questions of the day. They still
recognize the fact that they have to con-
tend with vigilant enemy to the great
principles of the Republican party, and
that while there may be differences of
policy, which may be laid aside, yet the
great principles meyer were, and should
never be overlooked and rejected for the
sake Of carrying out questions of policy
merely. The great mission of the Repub-
lican party does not end with asuccession
of successful campaigns, and the mission
of the party cannot die; because, being
founded on principle, and as principles
do not die, the real mission of the party
still lives and win live as long as princi-
pies live.

ON Rorh sides

The late letter of Mrs. Elizabeth Til
ton, in which she eonfesses her criminal
connection with Rev. H. w. Beecher, will
not be likely toincrease public confidence
in her ability to tell the truth in relation
to her own or Beecher's chastity. She
has shown herself to be too vacillating
upon the question Of her own virtue. She
has testified on all sides, thus rendering
her testimony in the case migratory and
wholly unworthy of confidence. She is
evidently in a state of mind little short
of imbecility.

WITH large balance of trade in favor
of our country, as there has been for the
past three years, with silver remonetized
and made legal tender in payment of all
debts not otherwise contracted to be paid,
and with greenbacks made receivable and
payable by the Government, it matters
little whether the resumption act be re-
pealed or not. We will not want any re-
sumption law to enable the Government
and the banks to redeem in coin all the
outstanding Government notes, or bank
notes, the holders Of that kind of cur
rency viii desire to exchange for gold
or silver. Who is there that has hun
dred dollars in greenbacks that desires tc
exchange it for coin-when he knows lie
can get it? If he thought he could moi
get it ne would be in distress to make thu
change.

THE FEVER ABROAD.


New ORLEANS, September 24.-From
noon to six o'clock this evening fifteen deaths
and one hundred and thirty-one new cases
were reported, of which ffty-fve date prior
| to twenty-frst instant. The fever is spreading
| through the country. In addition to places
heretofore reported, it has appeared at Rico
hoe plantation on Bayou Teche, Terre aux
Beuf, st, Bernard parish, Stafford landing,
Catahoula parish.
A dispatch was received by Collector Smith
from the Secretary of War stating he had
just been informed that the Howard associa-
ton had large fund of cash on hand. and
he thinks that the further issue of rations by
| the government to yellow-fever sufferers
would not be justified. The order for the adj
ditional forty thousand rations has been sus-
pended. The committee had already distri-
buted four or five wagon loads of rations, but
stopped at once on the receipt of telegram.
One hundred and fifty thousand rations have
been advanced by merchants in anticipation
of arrival of the second installment of gov
eminent rations Most of these, however,
are still in the hands of the committee, and
will be returned to the merchants The
committee still hope the Secretary of War
will allow them to issue after receiving the
dispatch sent this morning, as follows:
NEW ORLEANS, September "a, 1873.
Hon. Geo. W. MCrary, Secretary OF War, Washing
ton, ID. c.:
Dispatch received. l fear the condition of
affairs has been nisrepresented. The How
ards supply sick doctors and nurses with
medicines, not with food They joined in
the statement that additional supplies were
necessary. The rations sent by you were
given to families of fever sufferers, upon
doctors certificates, and often the condition
of these families had been ascertained by
special agents of the New Orleans relief
committee. The restitution Is greater than
ever before. the generosity of the govern
ment is fully appreciated by the press and
people, and have applauded your action and
approved the distribution of rations made by
the committee. Great disappointment is felt
at the revocation of your order. / still hope
you will permit this unfortunate people to
have the benefit of your second installment.
No one can imagine the extent of suffering
and starvation who has not been constantly
with it. GEO. L. SMITH,
Collector of Customs.
