examination; while the statement is ia Use
in reference to giving the example at the
examination as an arithmetical test, as it
is a good example, and involves peculiar
points, send you answers, as you requested,
and with the request that you publish it,
There are, as you remember, three differ
ences to be found; lst, Arthmeticol, which
is 800 and ID, Jockey, which is sos; and
Sd, the true or just which is $45. These
three differences any school boy can easily
demonstrate; and will you kindly allow
me to remark, that | did not know that
Mr.. Troup had a life-lease on the office of
Examiner, nor that the failure on the part
of Judge Phelps to reappoint him 10 the
office, would disintegrate the great.Repul- :
lican party. Allow me to suggest, that
perhaps the young man places too enor-
nous value on his party services and
weight of intellect. II he wishes 40 meas

you please, Bro. Timmons, push him from

THE CORRECT POSITION.

As the time for holding the Republican
State,Convention Opproaches,no little inter
est is felt concerning the proper course TO
be pursued. That there nre differences Of
opinion among Republicans, upon ques-
tons not affecting the principles or integ-
rity of the party, is evident, and every per-
son must readily understand that it should
be unwise and disastrous to take any action
calculated to engender bitterness of feeling
upon irrelevant issues. General GRos-
vENoR, of Athens, Speaker Of the last
House of Representatives, has written a
letter in which he thus states what he con-
siders the proper course TO be pursued by
the State Convention:
l do not, in the face of the enemy, slacken
my fire TO discuss with you, or any other
man, the rights or wrongs of the ndminis-
trative acts of the President, which are
past and decided and which in no way ef-
feet the present OF politics or parties, while
the Democratic party still lives and sta lks
through the land with its baneful political
presence and its present and prospective
capacity for bad government, | do not and
will not, drive from the Republican party
n single man who will assist by vote or 9th
er-wiSe in the defeat of The Democracy. !
will hail as n brother of common heritage
of political duty, any man who will vote
this fnh TO rcscae Ohio md Cong fron,
the present Democratic grasp upon them
Moreover, Mr.. Editor will do all can to
counsel the Republicans of OHIO to occupy
the well understood common ground OF po.
ltical action and stand together under n
banner representing the agreements and
not the disagreements of Republicans. In
this way, and in this way only, the path.
way to success in Ohio this fall is open tc
Republicans.
We regard that as the only safe policy
for the Convention to pursue. We must
have harmony and united action, if VIC
would win the battle next fall. Every.
thing calculated to distract the party or tc
paralyze its strength, must be kept out oi
the Convention.

New York World, Since the seven sue
ccssve suicides Of Mr.. MantOlini there
has been nothing like the confessions Of
Mrs. Tilton. In common, we hope, with
most of our readers, we have 80 far dis
charged this disgusting business from our
mind that at this writing we are not able
to say whether Mrs. Tilton has three times
asserted and twice denied, or twice asserte
ed and three times denied herself 10 b.
what she now once more insists that she is.
MIR. Beecher consistently maintains that
she is no such person, for which, no
doubt, Mr. Tilton will be grateful '''
1t is poor rule that willnot work both
ways In the patriarchal .dpte,beH.pq days
it was customary for the white man to
marry t?) all the likely coored girls ON
the plantation. But now that all men
are "free and equal" the whites do not pro-
pose to have colored men marry even one
white girl-and live. The Dallas Tex J
Herald says
case OF miscegenation occurred at
Houston, last week, A negro named Der
ing and white girl named Fannie Nc
Guire, OF Walker county, were married.
Tuesday the negro was shot and killed,
the contents Of fifteen shot guns being
emptied into him.

MONOPOLIES.

Corporations md societies OF all kinds
have already and will continue to do great
good. But they ought to be so regulated
as to promote the welfare of the public
To let all good things slide into one mans
hands or into the hands of the minority
would be on the whole an evil. A Repub-
lican form OF government demands equal
rights-no pets, no exclusive iavors, All
kinds of monopolies oue to lie carefully
ruled out. Benefactions should be for the
people-never for the exclusive welfare OF
one or two men. The government has a
right, nay more, is bound by the law of
equity to restrain amy class of men who
make an effort to enrich few by an act
that would impovcrish the many. Do
not cOntine knowledge to n select few. Let
every man, boy and girl learn to read and
write. Oar common schools are the glory
of the nation. Let no man make a corner
in the wheat market. Give to all for fair
price, -four enough to feed them. Let the
government teach Wall street to denl with

Let no more of the peoples money or pub

THE NEW DISTRICT.

We are now in the Seventh CongressioE-
al District, which is composed OF the
counties of Lucas, Wood, Hancock, San
dusky and Ottawa. As between the two
old parties, the District is Republican, and
we think it can be carried by our party
this fall. The National party may poll
enough votes, if taken entirely from either
the Republican or Democratic party, to
defeat the party so depleted; but that vote
will probably be drawn about equally
from both of the old parties. Their vote
will chiefly be cast in Toledo, and even
there it will be small. Their heaviest
vote will be cast in the strong Democratic
wards of the city - the Fifth and Eighth.
1t is, Therefore, safe to count upon the con
test without considering the National vote.
The chances are, then, in favor of the Re-
publicans. These chances are increased
by the fact that the Democrats will with
out doubt, have bitter fight over the
nomination. In Lucas county, STEED,
MAN, HURD, and others not yet heard
from, will make hard fight. Hancock
has MUNGER, WHITLEY, BLACKBOARD, and
few more who would not refuse a nomi.

brought out in general engagement. NJ
man can be nominated who will pleas,
all these factions. Lucas county will re
member how Hancock slaughtered STEED
NAN, in 1856, in the Defiance convention
and Hancock will remember how Luca
county retaliated by slaughlering MUNoES
at the polls in the Fall after the conven
tion. Thus, it will be seen, the chances
for harmony in the Democratic ranks, il
the new district, are not aIuering.
Ia the Republican ranks, there is ever,
reason to hope for harmony and unitec
action. There il nothing to indicate fac
