are not satisfied with the manner in
which the dt , legation to the State I
Convention from this Distriet was
made up, The district was_ entitled
zo five repres4 , atatives, but it seems
we had six in the Convention, tlirre
of whom were from this county, two
from Washington county, and But
ler county was magnanimously al
lowed one. The whole six, it seems,
voted for — Hamm It for tiovernor,
and this too in the face of the fact ,
that Butler county was fairly and
s.itiarely against his nomination. It
As believed now that the head of the'
4I • Ipgato from Butler comity was'
made to swim, shortly after he reach
ed the state capital„ and while in
that buoyant condition he gave Hart
remit his vote; without regard to
' what the folks would say at home."
The delegates from this county
were J. L. It. Dawson, Thos. Kerr,
and J. S. ltutan. The two first nam
ed were regularly chosen anti in the
Convention, hut how the Ex-Speaker
of the senate Clime to be a t \ nember
of this body, is a puzzle to not only
us hut to everybody else. It is al
leged on almost every hand that the
C'onv'ention was packed. If so, it
does hot appear that Mr. Rutan was
the packer. The evidences, however,
hat he was not a packer, is not by
any means conclusive.
The Butler county people are com .
parative strangers yet to our politi.
clans, but In due course of time, they
will learn that "for ways that arts

Cincinnati movement. lie column& are filled with
articles in favor of thatCrmventlou and atomics on
the Republican party.—Badical.
We recollect very distinctly that
when the editor of the ARGUE, and
one or two others, were organizing
the Republican party in 'Beaver
county in 1855, they were denounced
by the editor of the Radical_ and a
am
few of his present frlendsJust
Said tthe y hey :
are now denouncing List
" You are sore-heads; : you are work
ing into the hands of the Democracy,
by trying to break up the Whig and
-Know-Nothing organizations," &c.,
&c. Little attention was paid to
their hue and cry then, and we don't
intend to be much alarmed at it now.
But mark what followed : After the
Republican party was organized in
this comity and its future assured, in
spite of their opposition they, char
acteristically, mine into its ranks and
at once set out to monopolize the hon
ors if could giv e and the o ffi ces it had
to bestow. H istory is said to repeat
itself, and We have, therefore but
little doubt that Messes. Quay, Ra
tan and , their followers, will fight the
Reform Republican movement until
it becomes a success in Spite of their
hostility: when they will at once
ground their arms, rush into its ranks
one prove by each other that they
were the original reformers in the
county. Mark our prediction.
A PlTTsnunGit correspondent of
the New York Snn, gives a list of the
delegates 4from that city to the Cin
cinnati Convention on next 'Wednes
day, among whom we notice the
names of "Cot. M. S. Quay and the
Hon. J. S. Rutan Speaker of the
Senate." Mr. Rutan's telegram from
here on the 24th to Col. Quay at .
Philadelphia, (see it in another col
umn shows conclusively that both
of thesolgentlemen, had arranged to
put in - hn appearance at Cincinnati.
Mr. Dravo's announcement for the
Senate, caused a halt in their move
ments. To those who are novices in
political trickery, a word or two of
explanation just here seems neces
sary. Here in Beaver county both of
the above named gentlemen declare
themselves opposed to the Cincin
nati Convention and in favor of
Grant's renomination. Away from
Beaver county, they talk on the oth
er side of the question, - and arranged
for one if not' for both of them to at
tend the anti-Grant convention and
by their presence assist in that gen
tleman's overthrow.
If the Cincinnati Convention is a
success, th'ey can prove by the East
ern newspapers that they were favor_
able to it from the start; if it is a fail
ure, they can prove by the Radical
of last week, that they denounced it
heartily from the beginning! This
is what is called riding two horses at
the same time while the steeds are
heading in different directions—a
feat which both of them, it is said,
can perform.
BY referring to our announcement
column it will lw seen that senator
Rutan is a eandidate fOr renomina
tion. It will also be noticed that J.
Draw), pstg., is a eandidate for the
same position. Both of these gentle
. men are members of the Republican
party, and both of them have doubt
less spent money and time in the in
terest of theii party organization.
At the primary meeting on the 2..1th
of May, each of these aspirants will
t~us rater and thatone casting
ballot for the candidate whom he
thinks the most worthy of his sup
port. This is right and proper, and
no man with ordinary sense will say
that the supporter of Mr. Dravo are
any less devoted to Republican prin
ciples
.than are those who support
Mr. Rutan; nor are the friends of the
latter any better Republicans than
are those who aid the former. The
difference is only in the estimate
placed upon the two men, and these
differences are and must be tolerated
in organizations in this
country.
Now, let the vision be extended.
and a wider field taken in. General
Grant, like Senator Rutan, de.sires a
renomination. General Grant has
many warm friends, who are anxious
to see him succeed. But there are
other Republicans who are inflexibly
()noosed to the two term principle,
and others still, who are quite certain
that such men as Palmer, Davis or
Trumbull of Illinois, ('ox of Ohio,
Adams of Massachusetts, Fenton of
New Vork, would fill the Exeentive
chair ably and creditably, and at the
same time lay a -heavy hand on
thievesand noted corruptionist%Are
the one Term Republicans then. and
those who believe that General Grant
has been too fneTally and lenient with
the Nation's plunderers, any the less
devoted to Republican principles
than are tho•l:e who favor his renofil
ination? We think they are not and
.those who afFect to believe otherwise

cave nothing for the interests or the
preferences of the public. Their mot-
to is, "Rule or Ruin." They are the
dictators of - the Grant faction, pro-
scribing every one who expresses a
preference for the nomination of a
presidential candidate, other than
Grant. as hostile to the Republican
party. In other words, that Grant Is
the Republican party. The "Old

If the President had, eighteen or
twenty months ago, bruised the head

fastened upon the shoulders of his

so exceedingly fond of his pets, and
talked of them in such an enthusi

for worshiping birds, and told that it
was sinful to place such a high 'esti

remark•had so great an -effect upon
the bird-fancier's mind that he 'hired
a man to dump the whole collection

A eorrespondent of Monson, Miss
achusetts, who is skeptical as to su
pernatural appearances, has been
quietly investigating the circtimstan
ces attending the ghost excitement
at that place a few months ago, and
has solved the mysterY to his full
satisfaction. The story, KS he tells
it, is that a very young man became
enamored, last summer of a very
fascinating maiden residing about a
mile from the village, and was tic-
Customed to (AI on her Several times
a week. A younger brother, finding
that the youthful Romeo wits causing
some - gossip by his frequent atten
,
lions, resolved to stop them, and hit
up:m the plan of frightening them
in the guise of a ghost. Knowing
that the lad was courageous, howev
er, he "appeared" first to another
member of the family. Strapping a
broom upon his hack, with the bushy
part projecting over his head, he sue
cemfully disguised his height, and by
the means of a big black dress pre
sented in the night the appearance of
a woman about six feet eight inches
tall. t A c hus attired, he secreted hiin
self in the new church, and when his
victim came along pounced upon
him and chasedhim home, where he
arrived breathless with fright. This
incident produced much excitement
in the community, but the intrepid
itninen,undismayed hyghosts, stead
fastly continued his visits to the on
jeet of his effeetions. The leaven of
fear 'was working, however, and,
about a week later the "ghost" ac
costed and chased a man on his way
to the quarry at early daybreak, af
ter which the three thousand inhabit
ants of Monson were so wrought up
that even men were affraid to ven
ture out at night, except in bands;
but love yet conquered fear; the
youngster continued his tri-weekly
trips, -until one night, while return
ing home, the frightful ghost of
which lie had heard so much con
fronted him at a lonely spot in the
road. The first impulse was to run,
but the ghost ran too; he walked, and
the ghost assumed a measured tread
and continued uncouffortably near;
he slackened his paceand the dread
ed being stalked past hiln, and re
tnained before or hthand until he
reached home, frighteeed nearly to
death. The ghost-personator having,
fully accomplished his purpose,
thereafter kept his own counsel and
retired from the business, but the
terrified people of the town saw a
spector in everybush, and the ghost
was reported in half a dozen places
after it had dissappeared frOm view.
The new church was watched for
many a night, the woods were sea reh
ed by bands of men, wit,) took good
cure to keep together; cne man was
so nervous as to shoot himself while
,in search of the ghost; and deadly
fear for a time held the whole com
munity.

In*portant to Mesansbonii Owners,
nA,p, hrnn f ht brfore the Supe
rior Court of Cincinnati, on a petition
in error, the Court Mlecitied that nav
igating hoats out , 4i(le of the permit
ted water,;, voids a viliey Of insu
rauce.
We quote part of the opinion of
the Court.
"In many iinli,irtant respects what
are termed "Voyage Risks" and
"Time Risks" differ But where a
time policy limit, the navigation of
a vessel to a speeified area of waters,
navigation beyond t hat area is simi
lar to deviating from a prescribed
voyage. Both re•ogoire the filet, that
different penis arise in different pla
ces. The denial of the right of recov
ery to a party insured, where he has
broken one or more of his warran
ties, was not to be consider, (I it-S the
enforcement of a forfeiture against
him. It was more nearly the case or
a party who is denied the right to
recover upon a contract he has hinn
self violated. Every t hingeontained iu
a policy of insurance is not to be con
strued as a warranty; it must be ex
pressly stipulated they are such.—
But where a warranty is contained
in a policy it cannot he avoided be
cause of a want of materiality, nor
broken by the insured, though uo
loss result from the breach
The Court had no - ditliculty in con
struing this contract of insurance to
mean —and that they believe such
would be the conStructiou put upon
it by ordinary business men—that
the boat was insured to run in a spec.
Ifled tleh,l of trade, and upon that
wntroling view the one party agreed
to pay the , rate of premium, and the
other to assume the risk in consid
eration.thereof. A privilege reserv
ed to the insured to run his boat on
White River whenever he chose to
do so, at his own risk, Would have
changed the entire character of the
cOntract. The VIISc is clearly destin
guishable- from that of Palmer vs.
Warren Insurance Company, Story,
C. C. :nO.
In the (use la bar the policy ex
pressly warmilts that the aforesaid
vessel shall he!run and navigated up
on the aforAid privileged waters;
and in the mute connection is enu
merated the things which shall tem
porarily suspend the risk of the in
surer, to wit; while the vessel should
he unseaworthy, except while going
to port for repairs and - during such
repairs. Itunniog one or more tunes
as a White River Packet 14 not men
tioned as a ground of suspension.
The harilship of the case would dis
appear when it was considered that
it would have hoer easy for the own
er of the bit::t to telegraph from
Memphis to cite•ionati for yermiss
ion to make the White River trip at
his own risk."

• - lasertieD. Fair. Use nerdereas..
A San Francisco correspondent of
the Boston GlO6O writers: The (great
Fair-Crittenden' tragedy still occu
pies a prominent place in public gos
sip, find, like the great issue of the
Jarndyce, promises to drag along.—
Since her conviction in April last,
Mrs. Fair has been continuously
confined to thecounty jail. The hours
have been spent In intellectual pur
suits. and Owen Meredith's "Lu
cille" has been dramatized by her.
She has not yet offered to produce it
artinrof our local theatres, - which
seems strange, as she is a :woman of
large business talent, and she cannot
but know that its production would
coin money in this city if nowhere
else. lit hericonfinement she is vis
ited by her physician, mother and
daughter, but besides - these she re
ceives no one. She has a particular
enmity against mem hors of the press,
and by her the "interviewer" re
ceives no mercy, and as far as her
private affairs are concerned his oc
cupation Is gone. During the past
two months her senior counsel,
Ellsha Cook, died, and she now acts
as Ittr own attorney. Mr Cook was
paid $7,500 by Mrs. Fair, which she
claims was the full amount asked
by him. Since his death, however,
Mrs Cook has sued Mrs Fair to
cover $2,500, which shaalaims as the
remainder of her husband's fee.
Mrs. Fair stoutly denies this in her
answer to the complaint, and the
matter is now pending before Judge
Dwinelle, in whose court Mrs Fair
was tried and convicted. Mrs. Fair
is worth about $50,000. and it Is
said that during a recent excitement
in stocks she was largely Interested,
and made over $20,000 clear. She
has had bad luck recently in the way
of lawsuits, and has evinced a fine
talent for managing financial mat
ters, asahe so cleverly covered all in
vestments or her money to balk par
ties who were desirous of attaching
her worldly goods. She does not
seem to be much disturbed in her
speculations by any thought of pun
ishment, and by her action in many
matters seems to scout the idea of an
execntor. The Supreme Court has
granted her a new trial, and the gen
eral impression is that she will not
be convicted on the second trial.
Public feeling has experienced a
change favorable to her, and every
thing seems to foreshadow her final
acquittal. One thing is quite cer
tain—the case Is so well a part of the
eriminal history of the State, and
the facts are so widely known that
few citizens can be found who have
not .expressed and who do still
hold such a decided opinion on Ape
merits of the case as to entirely iex
elude them from serving as trial jur
ors. Perhaps she will be called for a
secend trial at no &spirit day, but it
is probable that her ekse will be al
lowed'to lie untouched for a year or
so, and then be dismissed on a nolle
prosequi based on the fact that many
of the principal witnesses cannot be
found. Thus will the cowardly mur
der of au unfortunate man be allowed
to go unavenged. and the world will
have one more instance of neglected
duty to law and order.

Itninigraliou
The German inim'gration thus fur
this you . , has been 'really above the
Irish; and the British immigration
of this season bids fair to reach an ex
tent never before approached. The
returns for the first three ithinths . of
the year have just been published.
The total immigration to New York
during that period, was, in round
notqers, 2s,lNN)—of which but 4,000
were'lrish, while 12,:an) were Ger
mans and 7,•500 were
_British. Until
two or three years ago the Irish kept
up with tile Gei mans, bat since then
the Ger Mans have gone far ahead of
the Irish. Those acquainted with
the subject say that the Irish immi
gration lwreafter will be compara
tively small, while the signs are that
the German immigration will attain
greater proportions than ever. The
British immigration, or immigration
from England and Scotland, reached
unusual proportions last year, and it
would seem from theligures just giv
en that it will be still larger this year.
The British working classes are new
taking an extraordinary interest in
America, and though trade and man
ufacturing industry are now unpre
ctslentedly brisk in Great Britain,
the workingmen have found out that
they have prospects lii this country
which they donut enjoy in their own.

Light ulna— Popular Delusions.
As the season of thunder storms is
rapidly approaching, its advance
guard having made its appearance a
few days ago, some remarks uPon
some of the methods by which pro
pie attempt to shield themselves from
the danger of lightning, may not he
unwelcome to our readers. Fear is a
great magnifier of danger,and people
seldom think that there is more
danger, us an English writer says,on
the best regulated railroad than dur
ing the heaviest thunder storm.
Most of the danger from lightning
"him be avoided by paying attention
to well-known rules of safety. Nat
urally, frightened people draw to
gether in some room or place,
seeking safety in eaeli other's society,
unconscious that they are attracting
danger instead of preventing it, as
the ascending currents of vapor caus
cd by their perspiration are excel
lent conductors of •eleetricity. Peo
ple seem to think that they are sate
in a crown and in the neighorhood
of some tall building, and sonic of
the most horrible uweidents on rec
ord have been caused by the mistak
en belief. Others believe that lying
upon prevent
severed their being injured, t i i i scious of
the fact that persons have been kill
ed w emh-avoring to shield them
selves in this mariner. It will be
seen that t11(4 ae.idents have mostly
occurred to persons who were igno
rant that the vapOr of their persons,
or the mattresses :upon which they
lay, were conductors. The silliest
place in a thunder storm is the cen
tre of the room if you aie in the
house, or a: a place at some distance
from tall houses or trees, if out of
doors. But the laws of electricity ,if
that-capricious power has laws, are
yet unknown; and the best course is
to trust in God and keep your light

Presents (tom the Duke Aleslud
The Cleveland Herald of Tuesday
says; • On Saturday last, Mr. John
Martin the well-known, ship builder
of this city, received from the Duke
Alexis a magnificent album, the coy
ers being of Russian Malachiete and
velvet, bound with gold, and the in
side tilled with photographic repre
sentations of the different classes of
people of the great Russian Empire.
The present was in recognition of the
' receipt, of a model of a vessel pre
pared and sent to the Duke some
months ago, a mention of which we
made at the time.
On Monday Mr. J. H. Devereux,
General Manager of the La Shore
and Michigan Southern i ay, re
ceived a splendid presen t f. m the
Duke. It was a solid silver tankard,
lined with gold, and weighing over
four pounds, the material and work
manship being exclusively Russian.
The present was accompanied by
letters expressive of the kindliest
fellings towards Mr. Devereux for the
attention and courtesies extended to
the Duke and his suite when passing
over the road by Mr. Devereux. The
tankard-is such as is used on great
state ocntsions in Russia and perhaps
other European countries; and isval
uable as a souvenir of the visitof one
of the most inteligent and modest of
all the European Princes who have
ever come to this country. These
presents to our citizens will be on
exhibition at thejewelry store of N.
E. Crittenden &Co. for a few days.
iVashiugtots's Headquarters
Now, this is really too absurd.—
Here is a man who dies in New Jers
ey, and the telegraph attempts to
define him as "the owner of a build
ing-in which General Washington
had his headquarters." There is
no American schoolboy who has not
known one or more men who had
lived in a house that had been Gen
eral Washington's headquarters. The
,General had more headquarters du
ring his service in the field than any
other General of ancient or modern
times. It appears to have been his
habit to visit every pleasant locality
in the country, and immediately
build a house as his headquarters. Ile
must have built them, for there are
more "headquarters of Washington"
now in existancu than- there were
houses standing In the country at the
time of the Declaration of Independ
