Silent Men.

Washington never made a speech,
In the zenith of his fame he ouCe at
tempted it, failed, and gave it up con-
fused and abashed. In framing the
Constitution of the United States, the
labor was almost wholly performed by
Committee of the whole, of which
George Washington was the chairman,
but he made only two speeches during
the convention, which were only of
a very few words each. The con-
vention, however, acknowledged the
master spirit and historians affirm that
had it not been for his personal popu-
larity, and the thirty words of his first
speech, pronouncing it the best that
could be united upon, the Consultation
would have been rejected by the people.
Thomas Jefferson never made speech,
He couldn't do it, Napoleon, whose
executive ability is almost without
parallel, said his greatest trouble was
In finding men of deeds rather than of
words.

A warming.

The sad fate of Thomas Ambrose,
Clerk Of the United States Courts for
the Southern district of Ohio, should
and doubtless will, serve as a warning
to other officers similarly situated. He
occupied high social position; had
troops Of friends; good office, with
adequate salary, He could not be con-
tent with those things. The opportu-
nifty presented itself to him, as he sup
posed, of making "big thing" of his
Office and so he set about levying un-
lawful fees upon unfortunate litigants
In his Courts, and Of preparing and
verifying false returns, He under
takes to excuse himself on the ground
Of "usage." Other men had done the
same thing before his day, as he asserts.
He could read the law, however, and
no doubt did so, for he recited the pro-
visions of the law In every one of his
false and fraudulent returns, and must
have known that he was not only yio-
lating the law but wronging litigants
and committing a crime. The result is
that instead of making q furtune, he
has lost all-every thing that a man
should prize--hOnor, reputation, re-
speot, fOrtune--and now the prison
doors yawn to receive him.--0, s. Jour

One of the first things which the next
Legislature ought to do is TO undo what
the O'Connor Legislature did in redls-
triotlng the State. All that the people
demand Is that the old districts be re-
stored. This will throw Clinton county
into the Third Congressional District,
and we viii then have Fayette county
with us, In that event this paper will
advocate the nomination of Hon. Mills
Gardner for Congress. He was cheated
out of second term by unfair means,
aud the party owes him the nomina-
ton. We cheerfully give him our sup
port--frst, because he is an able man;
second, because he is honest; third,
because he Is the best man In the old
Third District for the position. We
are for Mills Gardner for Congress,
first, last and all the time. We believe
he will receive the hearty support Of
every Republican journal In the old
Third District.
