POLITICAL NOTES.

Colonel Milton S. Robinson is at home.
Does he want a third term?
The size OF the Cincinnati republican
whisky ring seems to enlarge rapidly
The religious New York Independent:
John Morrissey has gone to meet Pharo.
Delegate Cannon. of Utah territory, is an
EDglishman, fifty-one years old, and was an
editor.
EThe Rev. George Ravens, of Centerville, is
taking an active interest in the greenback
party of Wayne county.
The Franklin county democratic conven-
as their next congressman.
The Hon. ID. Moss, of Noblesville, was in
the city yesterday. He is prominent can
didate in his district for congress.
Mrs. Hayes has been seen to smile since
the Washington temperance society with
drew its responsibility for her conduct.
Chicago Times: The Iowa democrats will
get together some time this month, and
solemnly arrange for the usual fall burial.
A republican paper in Kentucky suggests
Bristow as the republican candidate for gov
ernor. This great reformer will not be likely
to take kindly to the suggestion to lead
forlorn hope like that.
New Albany Ledger Standard: Green
back republicans vote the republican ticket,
and many fool greenback democrats help
them elect radicals by voting the green
back ticket. Learn more sense, democrats.
The citizens of Vicksburg, Miss, are
charged with having adopted the following
resolution: THAT We the citizens of Vicks-
burg, at the polls assembled, unanimously
agree that Tilden is a failure and Hayes
fraud"
Cincinnati Enquirer: Now that the family
alliance of Cameron, Sherman, Blaine and
Ewing has been fully consummated, Presi-
dent Hayes (de facto) must feel more lonely
than ever. And he always was sort of a
solitary man.
The republican Buffalo Express says: eve
advise the Ohio republicans to let the ad-
ministration severely alone: but, at the same
time, to try to avoid any bitter alteration
in the convention or, at any rate not to be
dismayed by the prospect of serious defec-
tons in case the administration should not
be Endorsed. The republican party is bigger
than any president"
The Cleveland Plain Dealer speaks thus
unkindly of the patriot who has been so
recently engaged in this state in lecturlng in
aid of the Morton monumental fund: 1.-The
dirtiest BLACKBOARD that ever made political
speech in Ohio is one George A. Sheridan, of
Louisiana, yet Hayes has recently appointed
him to the position of recorder of deeds for
the district of Columbia, removing Simon
Wolf, Hebrew, who has long filled the
place acceptably. Sheridan is one of the
meanest and most INSCRIPTIONS of the
Louisiana crowd, which is a bad ONE
Detroit Telegraph: Senator Stanley
Matthews has written and had published a
letter in which he declines to be a candidate
for congress from the second Ohio district,
and says that he would not accept the
nomination if it were rendered to him; but
he shall not give any reasons for declining.
This declination is very like the recent
declaration of Benjamin H. Bristow, that he
has retired from politics into private life; or
like statement from president Hayes. that
he has no thought of a second term. The
obviousness of the situation renders it IN
necessary so to speak. 1t reminds us of the
touching appeal of the ancient Virginia
maiden to General Heintzelman to please
spare her honor when the general was
merely asking her servant for drink Of
buttermilk.
