quarrels, the criminations, and recriminations, the rivalries and jealousies, and

feuds, and hard and bitter memories of

tbe past must be blotted out and pat

away forever. Such ' a time has how

come to the Republican party of Indi

ana; There have been quite enough ad

vantages' frittered away, strength wasted,

animosities angendered, fend and strife

stirred up, by internal dissensions. "A

The Bichmond Radical has been

nursings its rrath for some time.

and last week discharged a fearful

volley -on Congressional question.

Of course it objects to Judge Wil

son; whom it habitually character

izes as "Jeremiah." or Virtue yer-

ry," and thinks nothing more cer

tain than nisde (eat, should no re-J

ceive the nomination. It objects to all onr arguments in his favor, and repeats again and again its opinion that Gooding got the better of Wilson in their joint canvass an opinion entertained here

by bat tew. even .of tbe iDeinocra-J

cy. . : ; . r " ' The Radical however.agrees with ua onone point. It isof the opinion that harmony is necessary to success in the district, but t seems to have no idea of what is necessary to produce. harmony, and still indulges in its .purely gratuitous abuse of Wilson and his friends. The Radical asserts that Julian never had one fifth the outside aid

in any of his district campaigns, and names Colfax, Sherman, Orth and Cumback as helping Wilson.

- In 1868, the last time Julian was on the ticket," Colfax, Morton.Cumback and Stevenson made speeches in this district, making Julian's aid exactly equal to Wilson's. If the Radical would really have harmony in the district, it, would do well not to make misrepresentations, and also to leave off its unprovoked abuse of our present Representative in -Congress. .

vhese operation0, they, had hoped to manipulate a report tat would be damaging-to tie prospects of President Grant's renominatlon. Tho ferocity with which these m.n hnve pursued the President is only equalled by the futility and utter isilurooX.ibcir purpose.- Opiosed, as they ' are to . his renom nation, every effort.regardless of propriety and decency, have been made to -bring reproach uponhis administra- . tration and obloquy upon his pert Ronal reputation. The friends of President Grant both in and out of the Senate do not shrink from a i thorough ; and searching investigation of all th official acts of the

President, but they are not willing that his- political enemies even

though they profess to be Repub

licans shall drag him bct'oie the country in a false light. They are

determined that his administion shall stand upou its meiits,

and upon its merits alone be judged by tho people. If by a fair

showing, tho President is found to be implicated in peculation and

schemes derogratory to tbe dignity of his position and the interests of

the Government, the Republican masses throughout the country,

who are now looking to his re-

nomination, would bend their whole efforts to effect his defeat

and displacement. Rut this at, .tempt to implicate him would fail us all others have, . nnl while the

opportunity presents itself we trust

Post Master General, publishes'

some important facts m relation to this valuable branch of' the postal service. ' ' The total amount received for

money orders in the United States for the year 1870, wa $42,164, 118. 'The amount paid out for orders was $42,027,336. ' The amount of fees received by the Department, for issuing, was 8295,286. ' The avcrsgc amount of all ifihe orders issued was 819;50. The commission paid Post ffias-

'ters and salaries -paid clerks, was -8777,773. 1 -' ' - 'J The whoienumber of orders issn cd, was SU21,664, of which onlv '30 were claimed to have-beemim-properly or fraudulently issued or obtained. Kin? of these were recovered by Special Agents. 1 In five cases the issuing Post Masters were held responsible. In two cases the Department lost the money. In four cases the loss fell! tjpon the purchaser of the order, -and ten cases are yet unsettled. J During the six months.commenc cing July 1st I871,the Richmond Post office has issued 1420 money

orders, amounting 821,474; 94 an increase of 86,689,42, amounting to 45 per cent, over the- business done in the samo time during the year 1869. During the same time,

Money orders have been ' paid amounting in all to 824,3 47,1

Within six weeks tbe Republican

State Convention will assemble to dis

charge tbe duty devolving upon it of

presenting candidates to be supported by

tbe Republicans in October next, and of

embodying in a platform the views of the

party. Those who are charged with this duty have a serious responsibility rating upon them. . It is known lo all who have kept abreast of eurrent events thifsoine Republicans who have hitherto bad the

At the meetings of the School Commissioners last evening, Mr. George P.

Mr. Brown is an excellent choice for the place, ; and his

The eore-headed Republicans, led on' by Schurz and Trumbull, thiakingrto-uaake capital for the Democracy, and to create a feeling of supioion against the Administration, -with a virtuous flourish of trumpets demand that committees should be created and investigations made, and even

the. private affairs of the President

virtuou3 reformers, tbe friends of

The position assumed by the friends of the administration in this matter was entirely unexpected by the enemies of the President, and falls. like a wet blanket upon their, pet schem e '. During the debate-in the Senate

upon this -subject, the statement was made by Mr.Schurz, and reiterated by Messrs. Trumbull, Casserly, and others, ;that 'the Government was recking -with corrupt

tion.' -Now these goatlemen are all members of that honorable and respensible body, and it is fair to suppose . that they know whereof they affirm, and as the investigating committee has beoa appointed we suggest that it -summon these honorable Senators as witnesses -let them be put upon the stand and under solemn outh let them make Buch disclosures of corruption as

have come under their personal

Observation. Let them tell all they know of ..'jobs and plundering gehmes, of which they have publicly charged and incessantly talked. 'Let them enumerate the

nature and value of the numerous gifts illegaly rcoeived by the President of whieh they are personally cognizant. Give them a chance to make good the charges they have so boldly made against the President, and if they fail to do bo, let them be censured by the ody of which they are members as common slanderers and def amors .

Republican party will not, we are confi

dent, attempt to shield any one who has

been charged with fraud. It must

promptly and sternly rebuke all forms of corruption, when found in its own ranks, as well as when it is discovered in the - opposition. We trust lb&t the work of purification will commence wilh the 'opening of the campaign and that it will not cease until tho public mind shall rest in the belief that thieves and robbers of every party have been weeded out of places of public trust. One of the elements of tbe strength of the Republican party is the principle of strict : accountability of those upon

whom it confers official position, and tbe , fearlessness with which it has dealt wilh delinquents; - It must continue this course it must show to the country that it repudiates its unfaithful members that it has no places for them, however eminent their services in the past. . .. . Corruption must be frowned down. - The robbery of the public treasury of Indiana of thousands by State Printers is as bienons as the robbery of the -treasury of Now . York of millions by Tammany.

Under thia heading the Fort Wayne Ga

of tbe several candidates for tbe office of

Harrison, Kimball and Orth, gives its preference for Gen. Tom Brown. Tbe Gazette

truly says of him:

.. He seems to aa to combine within himself more of the elements of that success for

which there is to be a moat obstiiate fight,

than anr other candidate. He is a man in the very prime of life, well and favorably known by the Republicans throughout the State. Indeed, no small part of the Succes of tbe parly in thia State ia due to his gal- - lant services in the Republican cause. There

was a time of great peril when he stood up single-handed and alone at the capital of the State, and held the rebellious enemy at bay by bis own undauntod courage. , lie was one of tbe foremost lawyers in the State, a man ol much experience in public affairs, considering his y tars, well informed ia regard to tbe public questions of the time, and ' one of the moat attractive and convincing debatera in the Ftate. His past career, whether as a citizen, an able lawyer, ora most gallant soldier on the tented II eld, is such as to re fleet great credit upon any man.

. Democracy and the Geranaas

Last fall the Republicans of Ohio elected a German Dr. Mckller

Lieutenant Governor of the State

He is a gentleman of flje abilities and literary attainments, as well as of unsullied private character. The Legislature is now in session, and the Lieutenant Governor is at his post as -President of the Senate.

Tbo DocVr, though a good .En

glish scmlar, has retained ..the

German accent, whereat the De

mocratic . newspapers, from the

State organ down to the feeble 7x9 wcekliea, whose editors derive inspration from huge potations of

rot-gut, indulge in merriment and sneers. The Columbus Statesman

assails Dr. Mueller on account cf his nationality und publishes

what purports to be the language

in which the Lieutenant Govrenor

announced the result of the elec

tion for Senator of the United

States. It is a mixture of Ger

man ami cngusn, witn naruiy a

word pronounced

The State and Presidential Camnaina et

1872 will be the moat important, ia aiany respects, in which tbe two great political artiea now in existence' hare ever been engaged. The Democracy are making insidious eSurta

u ooiaia ine coniroi 01 ine nauonai uovcrament, and it is essential that the people be kept thoroughly apprised of their moretneuts.

as wen as 01 tbe claims or tbe ' Republican

party to a continuance of tbe confidence

wbicb bas been reposed in it for the last twelve years.

in the btata tbe issues will be very important : they will comprise the questions of political honesty and economic government :

bother public servants can nroititute tha

public funds to their own private use,-tbas

corrupting tne set vice, and making out of the State, offices mere places of pelf for plunderers. .The people will be called upon

to aecide w nether tbe crimes and blunders or tbe Democratic party BhaU be fastened upon the Stato for another term. The corruption and imbecility of the lat Legislature has been a by-word of reproach ever since it closed its

session, is. very rerorai measure demanded by the people, and promised by tbe Democracy failed of passage by that body and its history is aa infamous aa that of aay General Assembly which bas ever disgraced tbe annnala of legislation. The people are to pronounce judgment upon all these matters, and it is essential that they be thoroughly prepared to render a just verdict.

The Supreme Court has reversed its former decision en the note tender act by

that the Congress is supreme Over prw yate and public contractsi and that when, contracts have been made to pay ' coin of a fixed value, Congress by a subsequent act may authorize payment in irrsdeem able paper promises of its own creating.'
