Anderson, when separated from his
suborners and confederates OF the Potter
committee, and called to testify before
the Senate committee. saw the penlten-
tiarv staring him in the face for his per-
iuries, and so he refused to testify unless
allowed counsel Law counsel takes
charge of persons on trial for crime, to
see that they make no admission to GRIM
mate themselves. Their first injunction
TO the accused is to shut his mouth. An
derson's call for counsel as witness
nfesses that he is already IN the GRIM
inal category. A witness needs no coun-
sci to tell the truth. Andersons plea IS
simply refusal to criminate himself
The witness upon whose statements the
Potter committee called for Matthews,
having thus confessed, and refused to
testify, the Senate committee, having no
power to compel him to testify had no
case before it, and it djourned.-L Gin
cinnati Gazette.
The Gazette is the only paper IN the
United States that we have seen, that
undertakes to defend Stanley Matthews.
This U. S. Senator went around for
months, working to get place where he
could get his friend Hayes to appoint
the scoundrel Anderson to ctiice, to pay
him for committing great CRIME, the
evidence of which Matthews carried In
his pocket. Matthews refused to testify
before the Potter committee, thus, ac-
cording to the Gazette's logic, when ap-
piled to Anderson, confessing his guilt.
But no such confession was. necessary on
the part of Matthews. the Nash and An
derson agreement being positive and con-
elusive proof of his criminal rascaIlty.

The friends of Gen. S. H. Hurst, Of
Ross county, will present his name to the
Republican convention as a candidate
for Congress. We have known Gen.
Hurst quite intimately for twenty three
years, and we have a very high opinion
of his ability, integrity and genuine Re-
publicanism. We desire to take no part
for or against any candidate; but we
have this to say: Jackson county ought
to give Gen Hurst 400 majority, should
he be nominated.

The truly good, of the Cincinnati Ca
zette. takes exceptions to our explana-
ton as to how the Endorsement plank
came to be in the Cincinnati platform
This grieves US sorely. We used precise
ly the same argument used so persist
emily by the truly good man who daily
suffers martyrdom for the benefit of the
wicked partners-that a politician can
have no other motive for his public acts
than a hope for political reward That
the Gazette fails to see the beauty of the
argument, when used by others, leads US
to the verge of a horrible suspicion-that
the truly good editor of the Gazette has
been acting deliberately, in attributing
bad motives to leading Republicans, and
has been governed more by desire to
slander the great men of the Republican
party, than an honest desire to purify
our politics. We will try to drive away
any suspicion, however Else, the New
York Sun would never forgive US.

William NJ. Ampt is leading lawyer |
and politician Of Cincinnati. Before the |
fall election in 1876 he went all over the |
State of Ohio organizing the Republican
party, and distributing money where he
thought it would do the most good for
the party. After the election he went to
Florida to see that there was fair count.
No man can doubt his Republicanism or
his honesty. At the Cincinnati conven-
ton he introduced resolution which we
give. How any Republican, or any man
but traitor or a scoundrel could object
to any thing in it, is mystery; yet the
Dick Smith and Grosvenor concern
trampled it under foot. Here it is, read
it carefully
"Res0led, That the Republicans OF Ohio
are not opposed 10 the investigation of
alleged frauds In the Presidential contest
of 1876, but they demand that such in
vestigation shall be complete and impair
partial, and shall include all the States
where frauds are alleged to have been
perpetrated, and that such an investiga-
ton is the only one which would be sat
isfactory to the American people. They
declare that the title of President Hayes
is beyond the reach of Congressional in
reference. They denounce any attempt
to disturb his title by q mere declaration
of Congress as injurious to the peace and
business of the country, and revolutiona-
ry in its tendency, and they declare that
any effort to enforce such declaration
ought to be resisted with force, if neces-
sary.
THAT the Republicans of Ohio are un-
compromisingly opposed to the payment
of the rebel war claims, under any and
all circumstances. They regard their
existence as a standing menace in the
politics of the country. They are, there
fore, in favor of amending the Constitu-
ton of the United States, so as to declare
such claims null and void. They respect
fully request the Ohio Republican dele
cation in Congress to favor, and President
Hayes to recommend and urge, in his
next annual message to Congress, the
passage of measures looking to the adop
ton of such an amendment to the Con
stitution. While the Republicans OF
Ohio tender to the PROSTATE Republicans
of the South, many Of whom, being ex
Union soldiers, are ostracized as carpet
baggers and scalawags, their sincerest
sympathy in their struggle for persona
and political liberty, they pledge to then
their unceasing efforts to recover for then
the rights of free speech and untrammel
: ed suffrage guaranteed by the Constitu
ton and the laws of the land, and they
will always honor the name of U. S
, Grant for his patriotic efforts in behalf o
: Southern Republicans"

Rev. C) David H. Moore is one Of those
pious frauds who was educated at Ath-
ems for a preacher, and who is now get
ting S4 900 per year. He prayed at the
opening of the Smith and Grosvenor con-
Germ in Cincinnati, in the course of which
he said:
"Direct, in nominating the ticket so
that the Republican standard bearers,
each and every one them shall wear the
white flower of blameless life. And
since "a Prince is nothing in the presence
Of principle direct, we pray. Thee IN

vor to be the President, not of party,
but of the people. Suppressed applause ]
1t is easy enough sailing for Grosvenor
to get the devil on that side; but when
Moore undertakes to instruct God to
sanction lie, he will fail.
