The truthls that tlie result of two years of ardaous labor on the part of theerowd who carry the fortunes of Mr. Yogan i their hands resembles tho pubiic opin fon of a Stato about as much as the thwacking of the tin-swords of @loster and Jichmond upon u country stage réscinbles the veritable battle of Busworth Fleld. It Isnot tobe denfed that the publle rentl- ment of the people of Iiinuis should be one of tha tmain and fudeed declsive factors fu the de- cialon of this queation. The will of the people ought tobe expressed in the Scnatorial elec- tion.

The absence of such an fndorsement argucs a dis- satisfaction with the public conduct and record of the oflicer Who fails to recelve it. 1t 1son indiznity never inflicted by the prople cxcept upon reasons growing out of past conduct. This cus- tom was strenuously urged in behalf of Mr. Logan two years ago; and so perslstently did he and his friends clatm tho right to re-election, that hiy reason thereof the Republican oarty fost a 8enator, If this custom could be pleaded fn behalf of Mr. Logan two years ngo, fs it not even more in point In the case of Gov.

Aud are not the men who choee two years ngo rather to throw tho Senatorship to the Independents than that Mr. Logan should fall of the nccustomed ratifl- cation now catopped by their own acts from disputfne tho just clafma of tlov, Oclesby? The plain truth Is, Mr, Edftor, that the very silence of tho people, and the abscnce of any ublie expression upon the Benaturial question, is u complete warrant to the Legisiature in re- electing Guy. Oglesby. It s paly the cgotism of sellish ambition that could argue from such ‘sllence that the people demand n change. It is falr to presume if the people wish o change they woutd say #0. The people know the customn of ro election, and 1t 18 {o be aupposed that,sincs they gave no instructlons to the contrary, they expect the Legislature will re-clect Gov.

Oglesby ouzht to be re-clected, IHave tho followers of Mr. Logan given any sufflclent :readon for the polftical asenzsination of Gov. Oglesby? Will thoy clalm that Oglesby has not done his duty welll Dothey pretend that Mr, Lo- ‘grunwould do better? If Jengzth of servicoto the Tepubtican party 18 to be consldered, Mr., Logan can guln notklug by n comparison. Gov. Oglea- by was doiog veoman service for the Republican varty ot o tlne when his opponeot was efrning the very odious appellation of * Dirty-Work Logan " as the champlon of the woret™ fnlqui- tius of the Democratic party.

It must be snld in justico that Mr. Togan has nobly atoned_for those erora; and, were he not now_engoazed in nu uorratefur oifort to over- throw 4 brave nud gencrous man and a veteran Bepublican, it would werhops be wrong to ru- weinber that o himsclf only left the Demo- cratie party ut o time when it was o scandal and disgracy 1o renin in that mrt‘y longer, and that no never lifted voleo or hard 1o tiehalf of Republican principles until thoss principles had alrcady triumphed at the ballot-box.
