Resolutions of the Ohio Democracy. Resolved. by the Tenocracy of Oio, That, denouncing the extraordinary means by which they were brought about, we recognise as accomplished facts the three amendments to tle Constitution recently declared adopt ed, and consider the same as no lone er political issues before the country. 2d. We demand that the rule of strict construction, as proclaiined by the Democratic fathers and accepted by statesmen of all parties, be vigor. ously applied now to the Conttitution above referred to, and insist that those amendments shall not be held to have in any respect altered or modiflud the original theory and character of the Feder.%l Govurnunent, but only to have enlarged the powers delegated to it, and to that oxient anO no mjorb to have abridged the reserved rights of the States, and that as thus construed, the Democrat - ic party pledges itself to a lull, faithful and absolute execution and enforeetuent of the Constitution as it now is,so as to secure equal rights to all persons under it without dis. tinction of race, color or condition. 3d. That the absolute equality of each and every State within the Union is a fandamental pt inciple of the Federal Governnent ; that we should always oheriah and uphold the American system of State Govern saent for State purposes and the Gener al Govern ment for general purposes on ly, and are unalterably opposed to all attempts atcentralis itiou or conso'ida tion of power in the handsof the Genes al Government, and mwre especiall3 when such attempts are in the form of usurpation by any department of Govern opt. 4th. That we adhere frnly to the principle of maintaining perfect independence between the co-ordinate departments of the Gov, ernment, the Legislature, executive and judicial, condemning all encroach ments by the one upon the functions of the other. 5th. While the fundamental law, as expressed in the Constitution, is necessarily paramount, until abroga ted as prescribed in that instrument, all legislation is in its nature and purposes, temporary, and subject to change, modification or rcptal at the will of the majority of the people, as expressed through the law. making power ; and that the pretense that any Act of Congress not execu ted, or any legislative policy of party is an itbolute finality, is totally in consistent with the whole theory of government, and that it is the tn questionable right of the people, of themselves and throughi Iheir represon tatives, at each successive election, and in eaoh suecessivo Congress, to judgewhat legislation is necessary, proper or appropriate to carry into execution or enforce the central pow oe, r ights and duties of the Federal Governmont. ,. 6th. That as an instance of the emi npoly. uppropriate legivlat ion under the fourteenth armendment, we de mspd piow of Congress universal am nesty. , 7th. That while we .denounc~e all riotous combinations and conspiracies * against law, or to disiturb peace in thd tSouth or elsewhere, we 'demand of all good 'citizens their utmost in fluence to puta all such down. We * alsi dendunce the 'Act onimonly call. ed the-baybnet bill, recently' tiaased by Congrss,. and the motre rooer:t Act cornmronly;'callodd thes Ku': Klux bill, eatendingby its term to 'any State, and enacted for' no ether purpose than to othplto entralizaitio~ns of all power in the hands of thn general Government, and to establish a nwlli tary despotism and thus to perpetu ate the puesent Administration with out regard to the will of the pcople, as not only 'ineonsistenst with the whole theory .and churacter of the F Iedet-al (dovemrnent, and 'is revltu tionstry and dangerous ini their chur actor, but are in direct conflict with the spirit and letter of the Constitu tlon, inchg ing the amnud mzents wh ich thej ~retend to enforce. 8h, 'T'at holding still to the good old beornratio dootripe of annetxa tion or the ac~uggisition of territ.ry, we prc ,yet' totyll~y opposed to the scheme of Presid ent Grant to acquire St. Domingo as a job, and l~y the moans and.for thepro vdnl 9t~h That'we -are '1 . favor of 'a strictly revente- tariff conformed! to' *the. theory and principle df tall" othier jast6 and wise-tax Jaws, and' opposed' tothe proteotive theory, so-oalled. - 10th. That prodligate' oorrtuption -* ande waeton extravaganed whieh pertade every -department o~f the Fedqrai, Governmnent, stevilos- the interests of labor and aggrandie.u 4 handful of aristocrats, and are a * wioked deprivation of the people of their rightful heritage in public lands, which have been made gifts to rail roads and other monopolists, paying more than twenty millions premium during the administration of President Grant, in Govotnmont bonds payable at par, minitained at an annual cost to the people of nearly thirty millions and an unconstitutional, oppressive and extortionate system of banking, whereby money is made scarce and interest high, are abuses which call for wise and thorough remedies. I ith. That we are in favor of strict economy ; of a large reduction of ex penditures in the Federal and State Governments I of the collection of in ternal revenue by the State authori ties thereby returning to honest labor myriads of tax gatherers ho Aflhiet our land and cat up its substance, and of the speedy trial, conviction and puni.huent of the thieves who have stolen the taxes paid by the people. 12th. That while we reject repudlia. tion, we equally rejtct the propobi tion to pay the bond-holders more than the contract with them demands ; that if bond-holders have rights, so have taxpayers, and we ins.ist upon justice being done to both ; that 'the creditor is eititled to be paid in the saime currency he loaned to the Gov. ernment ; that where he loaned green backs he should be pAid in green backs, unless the contract otherwise provides, and where he loanel gol he should be paid in gold ; that to guard against too great expansion, greenbacks should be made converti ble itto three per cent. bonds at the option of note holders, t-aid bonds to be redeemed in greenbacks on de mand ; that the true method of ro. turning to specie payments is to make custom dues payable in legal tender currency, whether paper money or gold ; that sueh policy would secure uniform currency, stop gambling in gold, and thereby elevate the credit of the Government. 13th. That with the watchword of reform, we confidently give to the coun try that we believe the interests of the great. tody of the people are the same ; that, without regard to politi cal associations, they are the friends of free government, they are equally honest, brave and patriotic, and we appeal to them, as to our brothers and countrymen, to aid us to obtain re lief fron grievous abuses which wrong and oppress every one except. the wrong-doers and oppressors them selves. 14th. Upon the State issues, we resolve that we are in favor of calling a convention, as provided for by arti cle 16, section 8, of the State consti tution. How to lake Fari Life Altractive. By less hard work. Farmers often undettake more than they can do well, and consequently work too early and too late. 2. By more system. The farmers should have a time to begin and stop labor They should put more mind and machinery into their work. They shotld theorize as well as practice, and let both go together. Farming is healthy, moral, and respectable ; and, in the long run, may be made profitable. The farmer should keep good stock, and out of debt. 3. By taking care of health. Fram ers have a healthy v-ariety of exer, cise but too often negle~ct cleanliness, eat irregularly and hut riedly, sleep in ill-ventilated apartments, and ex pose themnselvese t', cold. 4. By adorning the home. Books, papers, pictures, mnun.i, and reading should all be brought to bear upon th'o in-door faily entertainmie.ts ; antd neatness and comnfort, order, shrub bery, flowers and fruits should -lhar tmoniz~e all without. There would he fewer desertions of old homesteads if pains were taken to make them agreeable.' Enase, order, henhrh, and beauty are comfortible with far-m life, and were ordained to go with it. Attrartion of Gravitation, Sir Tsaao Newton discovered attra. tion of gravitationr ihi a singular manr ner. Ifo was sleeping off his beer under ann apple tree 0one afternonon, when a pound-sweet, fatll and husted him ont the snoot. This set his nose to, bleeding andt himself to thiinking. He wanted to knoew what cauised lhat uapple to fall idhen it, wasn't a 'all apple. "Why," asked Newto, "whten that stemr gave way, did not the apple aboot upwards as the sparks do, and fly away, instead of comtinlg dlown ; and that too, when, neoordling to the mnaiket report., apples were not comning down 1" To our eye, althoug~h it ma y ho all in our ey e, Sir Ike, sitting :n thte gra ss un-ler that apple tree, studying out attracti 'sofgravitati n, while trying to stop the nosebleed, was one of the most striking and interesting pictures in history. "1 have It 1" cried New toti,'exultingly, and just then another apple fell and hit him on the top of the blead; kMtisfyinmg him there was somnething' in it. "It's attraction attraetion of gravitation 1" and it has been attraotion of gravitation ever Alwee." The Boston Advertiser says: "Most 6f 'the prominent rebels at the South have nothing to do, but yet they won't aceept the situation which is offered to thorn. A nidrew Johnson In terviewed - ll!

A Kioxvile letter iii the Cincin nati Comm111ercial : The question was a.Sked of Mr. Jonlissn what lie thought of the Val Iaidigham departure.

So to speak, there ii as imuch dai ger inl gettlug too fair away as stay ing too Iear. There are middle. grounds which it is the best. policy to occupy. The trouble is that some of our party walit to accept too Imiuch and others dont want to a'eept any. Ihinog.

Thoi e is a peaceble reiedy, and that. tiemedy is in con. viicinig the .e..lat t hat the Iast two amtendmetits to the Constitution and the reconsti uct ion nctjs are wrong. It is withinl the provilnet of tie people to alter thess thintgs if they wil. The true policy is to accept till these things as accomplished facts, but at the same time leave ourselves free to hereafter urge their abrogation at the bar of reason and justiec. .1 have always had great faith in the good sense and intelligence of the Ameri can people.

If the people will not do it, then of Lwuonse it cannot he done. But for us to say that we will forever close our lips against these iniquities is d-d I asked Mr. Johnston what he thought o1 Con.

"No, they will not be apt to take him. Generally speaking, I am op posed to a military man on the tieket, but i fit is neessa.iy that we have one, why not take General Hlancock 1 lie is a soldine a srtaeman, a .cho.. and a gentleman.

There are mieu In the Souti, Cspecia! y, who are contiiually committing blunders. Now, look at the speoch of JeT. Davis, recently made at Augu ta, in which he talks aaout the lost catu-o and all sielh foolishness. Thut will be trumpeteel all over the Noith, to frighten men away from the Democratic party. I have no doubt but what his Selmtx cpeech con tributed much twards our defeat in Connecticut." The Census of the State. It will be oeon from the census re r 'ns, pu'd iihed in anothe r column, lee first ofliaial table of our own State hat has yet app eared, that tie total !o pulation is not 1o great i1s it has been.

"A re-nomi intion of Grant," ie says, would be so injudicious that it ought teo longer to be discussed." le adds : "To say nothing of the great fact his administration has been but. a mediocre success, and not worth re peating for another four years, the victorious North should not a scoond tinme imipose otn the whole country the conqueror of one half of it, This is not the way to heal the wounds of a civil war. Peace, magnanimity, frc ternal kindness-this is the .pirit. which we hope the North will iock to exhibit, towards the South in the next Presidential canvass." Th/ese expressiones (says the Rich. mnond Dispatch,) indicate a noble sen titmetnt in the breast of TJilton.

The commandant at West Pitit Military Academy has deoided that this year the cadets should not have their annual hop. The Secre tary of War overrules this decision, and the hop is to come off. By pro scriptive right each cadet is entitled to a partner, nod thus so is the color ed cadet Sminth. The ladies, not hay Ing the fear of Congress before their eyes, now combine together in defianoq of that body and iti solemn onact Inents, to deprive a citizen of his rights on account of color, for they utterly refuse to dance with the black cadet. It has been suggested that a colored "lady" might be in. vited for his behoof. But in this case the fair rebels say that they won't go to the ]hop at all. And thus a band of ku klux in dinity triumph.
