PERTINENT dUESTIONSJ. Froaa the Editor or the Is dependent. 'But We imagine it is a matter of not the slightest importance to the people, who has been removed, or who appointed; who 'don't like Wilson,' or who does. The ques tions are, was Judge Wilson's can. vass satisfactory to his friendswas the result of the election disheartening to hie enemies has bis Congressional career been such as to commend him (o his constituents U he the strongest and best man in the party and is it wiso and politic to renominate him?' i"PrecUely so. When oar people generally we mean to say when a very large majority of the

honest masses of the Republican party have good cause to be reasonably well satisfied with the reord of Judge Wilson, "both during the canvass, and as , an active participator in the business of Congress, 'it becomes a matter of very significant importance' to tbo public, to know the animus, the imposing canse of the suddenly developed personal opposition to him the recently discovered unfitness of our present M C. for the place he occupies. Tho question is not only vety material but per

fectly legitimate, and an intelligent community cannot fail to aps preciate its relevancy. We tiust that the 'moral of our observations shall be in their application. So far are we from objecting to 'courage and . indepedence in the expression of honett convictions that we most cordially commend the practice, and we sometimes evince our admiration for that rare accomplishment, by indulging in the habit ourself, , and we hold it the highest duty of . an American citizen, fearlessly to canvass the conduct of our public men, and the merits of public measures, in

a spirit of justice and candor. The recent and very supicious discoveries of Judge Wilson's incapacity unpopularity might more properly be terued inventions. 'Was Judge Wilson's canvass satisfactory to his friends?' So far as we know, believerheard or saw, it tea, until the displeasure on the part of a very few gentlemen. Oar facilities were ordinarily good for ascertaining pnblic sentiment. Our 'personal friend' was- oat-spoken in the

Judge's praise, as a successful and able debater not a whisper of dissatisfaction met our ears.and we have several very inteligent per sons in our midst, who voluntarily told as that Jerry more than met their expections persons in whose judgment we have great confidence and among them a gentleman not a resident of the State, who had perhaps, witnessed as much, firstclass stamping as any of his age. There was unusual unanimity of

judgment touching our M. is. s ability on the hustings. We do not say there was no fault found with the manner in which he acquitted himself. We truthfully however, assert, if auch feeling existed, it.failed to reach us, and we can bat believe that, had there been complaint, we certainly would have hoard of it.' Wts the result of the election d isheartening to his enem ies?' A Yankee hack-driver had the honor of hauling a couple of Jonney Balls - fiom ;!

Let us nowjee how Independent

in tbo particulars to which

question refers. And .,.-. ' 'Is it wise and politic to renominate him?', ,r.: Why not? It has from time immemorial been customary to give a M. C. at least a second trial-unless for grave and serious . canse, which we differentially claim does not exist. ' V A" ?''-': We do not, however propose be

ing put on the defensive in this our Independent is

matter, and while we desire to observe due courtesy in . discussing the topic, we expect to exhibit the 'courage and independence of uttering oar honest convictions.'

' The accusations against ' the Judge, have been wanting n specification and much more in evrdence,

and if there has been any of either

deserving serious attention) we have failed to note it. The first

hum of dislike for Jerry that at

tractci our attention, from, those

who had cordially supported Lira, was in an anonymous note in the Radical signed Y' was itf-of

the paternity of which our ama

teur 'X' editor can perhaps tell us something it bore strikingly the ear marks of the subsequent 'X'

and it was . confined almost ex

clusively to 'harping cn my daughter' the P. O. This was just

about the ueriod Judge Wilson

was publicly discovered, for the first lime to be unworthy in personal appearance esthetic culture

-intellectual ability. Such is our observation,: and we confidently

appeal to an unprejudicial community to eu as tain us in the as

sertion,,

We do not claim onr favorite

candidate to bo immaculate infal

lible, or perfect; we do insist

that he is not guilty of any crime

or misdemeanor, justifying with

drawal of the people's confidence

in him or that would forfeit the

courtesy of a renomination

As we . remarked on a former

occasion, wo have no wish to die

tate to others their choice of candidates ; but we are unwilling si

lently to witness what we mast

characterize as very thin covering of the Independent editor, and his

weak effort at diverting and amusing bis readers. And, in conclusion, without intending to be offensive to any one personally, we beg to put tbo whole matter in as near a nutshell as it can well be. nd in such way as at lease to have the merit of being intelligible; and we ask the especial attention of a candid public to the points . Suppose our ambitious friend of

the 'Independent' had, by , the agency of the Judge, succeeded in retaining his assessorship that our 'personal friend' had drawn

the P. O. prize, wi'.h a revertionary right guaranteed to a gentle man doing business on the N. . corner of Alain and Franklio-sts., and that the P. O. had not been removed. We take pleasure in exempting our friend Benjamin Strattan and his friends; ecause the Judge has no warmer and sticking supporters than can be supplied from that source. Bat let our readers and, the public generally, just imagine our suppositions realized.and then permit us to query, whether there is a sane liye man in this city who will not confess, that thb fkissxt ins harmony and discord, would have been such symphony music love and fellowship such admiration of Judge Wilson, and such general rejoicing, as have not been witnessed since the 'morning stars sang together!'

With tbo removal of the P. O

we disclaim unservedly having

any agency nor had Jadge Wilson, to our certain " knowledge.

And let ns add, that wo would indeed be wanting in those . finer graces, that must adorn onr nature, were we, lor one moment, to permit ourself to douht, that when oar IX', editor, casts his mournful eyes on these lines his expanding bosom will heave a chastened sigh, and that be will

, As your paper reaches double the amount of people iu ' this fcongressiotal district that any other does, I thought. I should like to present to your ' readers what I believe to be the true situation of affairs at the present time among the Republicans, in regard to the nomination of a candidate for. Congress.. It looks, at present, as though., we might have a spirited contest. . t ' Judge Wilson, the present incumbent, Hon. Sexton, of Rush County, and B. F. Claypool, of Fayette, are atr understood to bo candidates for nomination.

&nd probably there will be One or two

district, I and among the leading, thinking and true men of tho party.

a desire to maintain, as far as pos sible the harmony of the party, evan it it has to be done by the sacrifice of friends whom we high

ly esteem. And if this principle

is not adhered to by the press and the people of the district, we csd hardly expect to succeed in electing onr men next fall. The question for the Republicans of this

district' to de&ide is, who is the

best man to choose for their stand

ard bearer in the coming contest.

Let them take a good survey of the premises before they decide.and then do their du'y, and nominate the must suitible - man to make

the race . As regards Claypool, or Sexton, I think either of them

would make ' good members; as they are both men of ability and

have always been true Republicans,

and if either should get the' nom

ination.'hc should receive the cor

dial support of every Republican

in the district. As regards Judge

Wilson, he has many very- warm

friends in the district who esteem

him as an honest and faithful reo

resentalive, and they have abun

dant proof, tnat lie naa no supe

rior in Congress among the mem

bers who are serving their first

term. That he is s man of ability

and integrity no one can deny, and

his friends claim that he is a.so the most available candidate in the field. There appear to be two

classes of men who oppose his re-

nomination. One class of individuals who have been unsuccessful in obtaining positions in the district, and the other class is those that want to go to Congress themselves. - I find qnlte a majority of the Republicans in the . district have expected Wilson . to be their candidate for one term more, inasmuch as lie made the race two years ago, when there was no one else willing to make the : race, as they thought there was no chance of success. - -All hough he succeeded by a small majority, it was quite certian there was no one who could have done better at the time! His friends aro well pleased . with his coarse in Congress, and claim or hint the right of oae more . term, folly Deleaving he can make the race and be electedbjr as largo a . majority as any man in the district: ' Votbb Cincinnati Gasette.' u- t ' ; i . 7

New Albant, February 20. A horrible tragedy came to light early this morning in Clark County, two miles above this city, on the Charleston gravel road. A log honse, in which a German named Jonh Bently and his wife resided, was found burned to th4 gronnd, the debris having' f allien into the cellar. The men making the discovery secured hooks, and fished out of tbe cellar the legs and arras ot Bjntly and his wifj , also tbe skull of Bentley. It is supposed that the

family was murdered for money, as Bently

sold a lot of bicsn yesterday, and that tbe place was burned to cover up the crime. The Clark County Coroner, and large croards of

people from this city and Jefferson ville, went to the scene to day, and the case is n ow being

investigated. Great excitement prevailed. '

George Hawu, Superintendent of. Smith's flouring mills at Pern,

was caught in the machinery last

Tbe State and Presidential Campaigns ot

1872 will be the most important, in many respects, in which tbe two great political ( armies now in existence- have ever been engaged. The Democracy are making insidious efforts

to obtaia the control r the National Govern-

ment. and it is essential that the Deoole bo

kept thoroughly apprised of their movements, aa well aa ot the claims of the Republican

party to. a continuai.ee of the confidence which bas been reposed iu 'it' for the last

twelve years.

In the state tbe issues will be very import

ant i tbey will comprise the questions of po

litical honesty-and 'economic government:

whether pnblic servants can prostitute the public funds to their -own private use, thus corrupting tbe service, and making' not of the State offices; mere places of . petf for

plunderers. .The people will be, called upon to decide.' whether the crimes ani blunders of tbe Democratic party ahull be fastened, upon the State for another term. The "corrdption and imbecility of the latt Legislature has been a by-word ol reproach ever since it rinsed its session. Every reform measure demanded by the people, and promised by 'tho Democracy failed of passage by that body, and its hiatory is as infamous as that of any General Assem

bly which baa ever disgraced tbe annuals of

legislation. Tbe people are to- pronounce judgment apon all these matters, and it is essential that they be thoroughly prepared to
