Among tho many names mentioned for delegate at large to the Baltimore Convention, wo notice that of GEORGE WEIMER of Akron, one of the most a active and best Democrats in the State. Mr. WEIMER has been for some years Chairman of the County Central Committee of Summit county, and by the aid of other active Democrats, succeeded in reducing the Republican majority of 2,000 down to 800. Mr. WEIMER is a German of wide influence throughout his section of the State, and is well deserving of the compliment.

For several days past a paper has been circulated through the city and county and numerously signed by Republicans, asking Judge R.

F. l'AINE to be A candidate for Congress at the coming election. The following is the request presented to the Judge and his reply thereto: HONORABLE ROBERT F. PAINE, SiR: The undersigned Republican citizens of Cuyahoga county, feeling an interest in the continued ascendancy of the Republican party, propose to unite our ettorts to secure the election of a Representative in Congress from this district who shall be exclusively the representative of the peoplo; one who will have no personal interests inconsistent with the public good and no outstanding pledges of favors or appointments to his favorites or to any selfish rings or organizations to be fulfilled by use of the patronage which as a public trust is committed to his hands. Your nanic as a candidate for that office has been prominently brought before the public and so far as we know I I this use of it meets with general approbation.

Much dissension has existed and now exists among the Republicans of this county growing out of no other than the alleged organization of cliques or rings by which nominations objectionable to the people are gometimes made which threaten to destroy the uscfulness of the party if not to cause its entire disruption. The only objection which has been made to the administration of General Grant and the only which is ever attempted to be stain, it results from the selfigh and corrupt character of many of the political adventurers who have been thrust upon him for appointment by imposition upon his ignorance of their character and usefulness, made by members of Congress and others, who were indebted to these unworthy applicants for political service in securing their nomination. In view of the political management which has reflected no credit upon our party in the selection of its candidates for some years past, and in view of the hostile feeling between sections or divisions of it, which four years since, in the district convention, induced delegates from this county, who favored the selection of one of the Congressional candidates from this county to transfer their entire vote to the candidate from Summit county for no apparent purpose except the gratification of partisan feeling or expectation of preference in the distribution of appointments, and with the hope of preventing any such dissensions during the approaching campaign, we have determined to seek a candidate who is known to have no connection with any clique or ring except the whole Republican party in the district, who, ward and within no his enemies party, to has "no punish." friends tore We are earnest advocates of civil service reform, believing, as we do, that the abuses and corruption which have obtained both in legislation and in the administration of public trusts will be the rock upon which the party will be destroyed if not effectually and speedily checked. We seek representative who earuestly favors the adoption of such legislation as will tend to secure opportunities predicated upon intellectual and moral fitness and not upon service rendered to the member of Congress who 80- cures his appointment. No man whose nomination is secured by the combinations -promises and intriguewhich too often characterize political management, can heartily favor a measure which would deprive him of his patronage.

We believe that your position and views are in harmony with what we have CXpressed, while in addressing you this letter and in proposing you as our candidate We mean no hostility to any ouc of -thc fellow Republicans who may have been an active partisan even in the objectionable organizations to which we have referred. We do mean to unite Our efforts at this crisis in the political affairs when an objectionable nomination would hazard the success of the party in the State, and possibly defeat the election of General Grantto bring before the people a candidate whose name will not serve to revive dissensions and who can be expected to secure substantially the whole vote of the Republican We desire to have you advise the public definitely whether you are to ben candidate for Congress. If you are, and if your views are substantially in harmony with these here expressed we pledge you our support. To Jacob Dutton, Thomas Ewing, A. Alexander, E.

Mathivet, William Filbert, S. Britton, 0. Walter, I. F. Leypold, E.

IT. Brooks and 409 others. GENTLEMEN -I have just received your letter of June 15th. I bad before and have since received several of the same character and numcrously signed. Had these letters emanated from a clique or ring, self constituted committec or other sclish political combination, I should treat them with the contempt which profound silence would indicate.

But my knowledge of many of you derived from a long, personal acquaintance forbids that I should entertain for them contempt or treat their contents or expressions of contidence with indifference. I shall therefore auswer them at some length. I can readily appreciate your desire as Republicans to secure the continued ascendency of the Republican party and your anxiety for the election of a Representative to Congress from this District who will have 110 personal interest to serve, and no outstanding pledges of favor or appointments to his favorites or seltish rings to In my opinion, you could not in any other way so surely contribute to the perpetuity of the party as to select just such a candidate who is also sound in the Republican faith. You say that my name has been prominently brought before the public as a candidate, and, so far as you know, it meets with general approbation. I feel flattered by the assurance and grateful for this confidence.

You speak of the dissensions which have existed in the party, growing out of the organization and action of cliques or rings, which threaten to destroy the usefulness, or cause the entire disruption of the party, and becomingly allude to their action in selecting a Representative in Congress for several years past, and your determination to seck a candidate who is known to have no connection with any clique or ring except the whole Republican party in the District. I am fully aware of the existence of these mousing, selfish, intriguing, corrupt cliques; their intidelity to principle, and the pernicious influence of their action upon the political health and morals of the party and country cannot be over -estimated, and I am made more than happy when you assure me that I am not of them. You speak of the effect of the action of these political tricksters in selecting a representative in Congress four years siuce, and you might have added that when thwarted in their attempt to thrust upon the district a professional lobbyist, they took vengeance on the party and people by sending a man who for four years had to refer to big certificate of clection to prove he was a living member. You say you are carnest advocates of civil service reform, and that you seck a representative who favors such legislation as will tend to secure appointments predicated upon intellectual and moral fitness not upon services rendered to the member of Congress. In my opinion too much importauce cannot be attached to, nor can too speedy action be taken in making these views some of the tests by which the fitness of au applicant for 8 scat in Congress should be determined.

It would seem that an honest man would do this from a sense of right and faithfulness his trust, but experience has shown that when a politician starts for a seat in Congress he commences dealing out the offices which will be at his disposal if elected, and generally before the day of election he has promised cach office to a half-dozen, thus mortgaging the patronage due his digtrict many times, and he who can show that he has done the dirtiest work will finally be declared to have the oldest mortgage. Nothing, in my opinion, could be more pernicious or more directly calculated to prevent public trusts and responsibilities from being placed in the hands of competent, faithful, honest officers than this almost universal practice. would, therefore, deprive the member of Congress of the power to appoint and place it in the bands of an honest and impartial board, whose position did not depend upon the efforts of the applicants. You are right in believing that my position and vicws are in perfect harmony with those in your letter. And now I might stop, but respect for you, frankness due myself and 8 desire to be understood compel me to go further and say that in my opinion the remedy you propose for the political poison and corruption of the cliques and rings of which you speak is entirely inadequate to elfect a cure.

You may to some extent modify and by extraordinary efforts, sometimes prevent the cvils of which you justly plain, but it is at best only an opiate; it doos not reach or effect the origin or cause which produces these corrupt and selfish combinations.

Greeley now before the people and his name cannot be withdrawn.

The Senator expressed the opinion that Mr. Greeley is elected, as he would be by overwheming vote, be would select from parties such a cabinet and draw around him such men as the nation would place entire confidence in. The World, editorially, treats the conference as a "fiasco." The Herald thinks the conference veloped the fact that the Democratic party, old and young, will go for Greeley.

READING MATTER ON EACH PAGE Tone amount of prize money to be distributed to the oficers and crew of the hearsage, for their services in sinkiug Cuptain Semmes' Alabama, is a hundred and sixty thousand dollars. NELLIE GRANT, it is said, has had a foreign lord scratching around her, with dim prospects of at least a proposal. GRANT incant business when he sent his little miss abroad. THE Cincinnati Commerciad's Washington correspondent, in telegraphing an item that the government distribute the prize money in the Kearsage-Alabama case, adds to it a little sketch of the famous fight between those vegsels. Rather more money than interest in that special.

JUDGE MCCUNN is an active mover in the scheme to raise a GREELEY statue. Subsequently he is put on trial for malpractice and corruption, and GREELEY shows him up. What would do under similar circ*mstauces? Give the Judge a cabinet appointment, or something better yet. WELL the long agony is over. The New York conference has been held, and, after a somewhat lively session, adjourned without demonstrating anything beyond the fact that an overwhelming majority of the mecting was for the Cincinnati ticket.

Mr. SCHURZ was present, and put a quictus upon the gossip about his own position, by renewing his fealty to Cincinnati. Las anybody heard from JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL? For three months past, W. C. WILKINSON has been I exposing, in Scribner'8 Monthly, Mr.

lax grammar. Mr. WILKINSON laboriously wades through the prose works of the New England pet, and lays the startling collection of grammatical blunders, which he scoops up by the bushelful as he goes along, before the readers of the Monthly. The critic makes LOWELL to be, either through ignorance, or an affectation of slovenliness, 119 bad a writer, in the sense of mere art, 18 any tyro, who contributes "pieces" to the country weekly. It is about time that Mr.

LOWELL was heard from. lIe ought to mako some sort of a plea to the WILKINSON indictment. It has been lot of few prominent writers to be so mercilessly hauled over the coals. WE. give below some extracts from Mr.

CO1 BAITI's (alias HENRY WILSON) Know. Nothing speeches, showing how he loves the rich Irish brogue," and the "sweet German accent." Mr. COLBAITH tried to get out of it, the other day, by saying that, although he did go into the Know- Nothing movement, he had no heart in it, but was heartily disposed towards our foreign citizens than otherwise. The extracts will show the character of that heartiness: The time had come when the uniform of the State militia should no longer be disgraced by being seen on the back of 1 Catholic Irishman or Infidel Dutchman. By the light of these burning shanties the Teuton and Celt may read the certain doom that will overtake them in the attempt to compete with the native-born American for political supremacy on this continent.

THE hot weather has come upon us at single jump, and in :1 little while we shall see the annual summer hegira to the pleasure resorts in full operation. Long Branch, Cape May, Saratoga, the White Mauntains, and all the other resorts, big and little, have set their houses in order against the influx of visitors. Blessed are those whose incomes will enable them to set business aside for a few weeks take and little once away from brick walls into the cool country for rest and recreation. Such luxuries are good for both body and soul. A curious feature of summer traveling this year is the great number of our people who have gone, and are preparing to go, to Lurope.

If the exodus continues as it has begun, the home caterers will haye reason for serious alarm, ns their receipts will be most sensibly decreased. OuR old friend A. M. GRISWALD is out with the prospectus of a new weekly paper to be publishe1 in Cincinnati, the first numher to be issued on the 20th of Mr. GRISWOLD is pleasantly known to the newspaper world as the "Fat Contributor," and will write exclusively for the new paper.

Gris, in his prospectus, say's: It is not unusual for people about to start new papers, to inform the public in a semiapologetic way, that they have discovered "void" in newspaperdom which they propose to Gill. They leave it to be inferred that they would not thus madly prance into the uncertain field of journalism did they not distinctly perceive this void, and had they not unbounded confidence in their ability to fill the yawning chasm. And they fill it too, not unfrequently, and we hear no more of them or the cither. We do not profess to have discovered one of those voids. In fact, We don't care whether there is a void or not.

Iustead of hunting one up we intend to go to work and make a place for a new paper, and strivo to establish it there on the basis of public confidence and appreciation. We hope our friend may succeed. Ic ought to make another Tatter or Spectator out of his weekly, or try to, at any rate. WILSON SHANNON having come out for GREELEY, the Herald advises SITANNON to look over the back numbers of the New York Tribune and see what GREELEY said of him when he (SHANNON) was running for Governor many years ago. The Herald cannot bring its old fogy self to appreciate the fact that this canvass is be fought out on live issues.

It finds it impossible to fight with the new weapons, and persists in banging away with the blunder-busses and horec pistils" of an extinct age, notwithstanding it is in imminent danger of having its head kicked off by them every time ::.0 trigger is pulled. The issues that were congidered vital during the war, even, are now entirely out of date, so that it inakes no differonce what a candidate says of the acts and sayings of an opponent, during that period. The objects and sentiments of the people, now, are based upon the probable ellect of the action of to-day upon the future well being of the country. Yet the Icrald is so wedded to its old guns that it goes away back of the late war for ammunition. Our neighbor will find the latter only damaged powder at best.

But let the old fogy blaze away if it wants to; nobody outside of its own crowd will be hurt. GILMORE probably feels more than he did. The first two or three day of the Boston jubilee gave dubious promise of success. Boston appeared to be full of pleasure-secking strangers, but some how or other they did not find their way to the Coliscum in startling numbers. The vast building, capable of accommodating fifty thousand people, was but sparsely occupied by auditors.

The performers outnumbered the audience largely. The paucity of at. tendance must have struck to the hearts of GILMORE and his backers, for bank notes in great musical enterprises, as well as in great martial enterprises, are the "sinews of war." Something bad had to be More than ten years since Senator Wade labored hard and long to engraft 1 upon the constitution a provision by which the P'resident of the United States should be ineligible to a re-election. Ilis speeches in the United States Senate at that time convinced me of the soundness of hig views and the declaration of Goneral Grant in 1868 made me a perfect believer in the doctrine. General Grant then proclaimed "The liberties of the country cannot be maintained without a one term amendment to the Constitution." I believed it then and I more than believe it now.

I know it to day. I need not stop here to discuss the propriety of his remarks then, nor how much this truth has been verified by his administration. In his election then I took an humble part and rejoiced with exceeding joy that a grateful people should exhaust their efforts in doing homage to him as their deliverer from the horrors of intestine war and all its accumulated evils and atrocitics. This nation then not only exhausted its honors upon him, but by public and private munificence literally crushed him with its pecuniary offerings All this was proper and eminently becoming a frec and grateful people, and God forbid that I should ever detract from, or fail to forget for what this nation was indebted to Gen. not to forget the prodigality of a nation's gratitude and money in canceling the obligations.

Nor would I by any means underrate the ability with which he has administered tho affairs of the government as its president. I do not believe any other man could have been more successful with his administration represented and controlled in almost every principal city in the Union by as selfish, intriguing, slimy and unprincipled a set of men as ever licked the foot of him who suffered them to eat the crumbs which fell from their master's table. The only way of driving these corrupt cliques and intriguing rings from the party is to require moral and intellectual fitness for the places they fill, and unless this is done they will drag the Republican party to a degradation so deep that respect for it would excite suspicion and adhesion to it be criminal. These combinations are formed at the inauguration of a President. Their infancy is spent in nursing at the paps of power the second year they manipulate the primary meetings the third is devoted to local election and by the fourth they have become so strong as to demand the control of the entire political machincry of the government, state and national.

In this way the entire patronage of the government is inade to contribute to the reelection of him who has furnished them place and power, and hence it is that there differences of opinion, 110 splits amongst the Federal -holders. Whether these cliques are the legitimate bantling; of Federal patronage or of the less harmless but equally hateful managers or pimps of ward rings it is not desirable that they live to a greater age than four years. The population of a city can be as accurately ascertained by measuring the size and corruption of its political rings as by the census of 1870, and it is flattering to the growth of Cleveland that it can produce a mammoth ring, of great energy and fearful activity. For these and many other reasons might be mentioned, it is my purpose never again to vote for the re-clection of a President. The platform of the Liberal Republican party submits tho question of a tariff to the voters of each Congressional District, uninfluenced by Federal power.

It scens to me that this is eminently proper. As the people have in some shape to furnish the revenue, they ought to determine the means. Many efforts have been made to make the amount and manner of mljusting it the reason that it is necessarily a local national question. This en cannot be done for question, and will be so Jong a8 there are such diversity of inters be affected. In my opinion the immenso manufacturing interests of this district require and should receive all the encouragement and protection which 1 reasonably high tariff can afford adjusted with sufference, not only for revenue, but protection; and, in doing this, 1 would look as closely to the encouragement and protection of the laborer as the capitalist.

Without renouncing my former political views but with them and these here expressed I place on the platform of the Liberal Republican party recently adopted at Cincinnati and shall support its nominees. If, with these views and occupying this position, the voters of this district desire me to represent them in Congress, I shall not decline the honorable and responsible aition. Yours With respect, R. F. PAINE.

Cleveland, June 20, 1872. FROM ILLINOIS. Disappearance of a Minister -Women and Medicine and Drink. GROVE CITY, June 13, 1872. EDITORS PLAIN DEALER: -Like the low rumbling of a coming storm faint murmer of indignation has for some time past made itself heard among certain elements of the Reformed congregation in this community, called forth by the unclerical conduct of their pastor, Rev.

S. IV. McClure. Some months ago the gentleman above referred to came to this charge with recommendations from Prof. Willard of the colloge at Tiflin, Ohio.

He was destitute of both money and clothing, but by his pleasing address and apparent desire to do good, won the confidence and sympathy of our people, who generously provided him with food and raiment free of charge, none dreaming that beneath the Godlike exterior there beat the black heart of all unscrupulous villain. Until a week or two ago all went smoothly enough, when he became involved in a quarrel with a lady member of the church, during the course of which he displayed some knowledge of medicine. The quarrel culminated in quite 8 lively exchange of epithets, mention of which herein decency forbids, after which he tendered his resignation. This was referred to a committee which met on Tuesday last to investigate matters. The light of his countenance, however, beamed not on those assembled, a member of the committee was dispatched to his "boarding house," who brought back the intelligence a horse for which his note alone had been that "the bird head flown," taking with him given, with the name of a Mr.

Bauchman aS security. Previous to absconding he had borrowed $30, and also attempted to sell the horse. He also indulged in a series of oaths which would do credit to and accomplished sailor; made insulting propositions to ladies of his congregation, drank whisky by the bottle, and in a thousand ways proved himgelf to be 8 very devil. The horse he left at Edinburgh, eight miles distant, at which place he took the train for Pana, Ill. Since then nothing has been heard, and so ends the story.

SHADY. WASHINGTON NOTES. The P'ostoftice Department is examining designs for postal cards under the recently enacted law. The reason of the suspension by the President of Logan II. Roots as Marshall of western Arkansas, was that during one year he expended nearly $240,000 for costs of court, or more than the entire amount for expenses for the courts in the State of New York.

Comptroller Brodhead has rejected the claim of a pardoned rebel for military supplies furnished in 1860, on the ground that it was expressly forbidden by act of Congress. The State Department has decided that manifests are not required in the case of ferry-boats, or of bonded cars passing from one State to another through foreign contiguous territory. OILIO NEWS. -The pioneers of Van Wert county meet on the 4th of July. -By the Assessors returns, Seneca county produced in 1871 718,537 bushels of wheat and 117,683 bushels of corn.

M. EXPLOSION AT COLUMBUS. Boiler Explodes in the Penitentiary. Large Number of the Prisoners Wounded. Fortunately no One Killed.

Complete List of the Wounded. The Geneva Conference. Grant Administration "Backing Water" Again, COLUMBUS. COLUMBLA, June boiler in the extensive shops of the Ohio brush and wire works, located within the walls of the Ohio penitentiary, exploded this morning just After the convicts had started to work, with terrible noise and dread etfect. The tying boiler tore out the large three story building 111 which it was placed, making it a mass of ruing, and tore the outside walls and roof of Huff's cooper shop and George Gill's stove foundry, not far off.

Pieces of the boiler were thrown a tremendous distance. At the time of the accident eighty-five men were in the brush shop, and were just going to work. The shock was territic and yet no person was killed outright. Several men were blown out of the windows and fell with the debris from the fourth story of the building. One man at work in the lower story of the boiler house was buried in the ruins and held for half an hour about the waist between two heavy timbers.

The firemen and engineer in charge the boiler were buried under a great pile of brick and timber, but were dug out alive, considerably burned and bruised. Some escapes were almost miraculous. The scene of the explosion is desolate enough. Great piles of brick, stone, timber and machinery were in a confused mass, while manufactured articles and raw material are strewn over the ground for a long distance. As soon as possible a large force was put to work and the men who were buried under the ruins were all dug out and with the other wounded were taken to the large and comfortable prison hospital, where a score of good nurses were on hand to care for them, and they are now all well care forthe following is a complete list of persons now in the hospital by reason the accident, and is probably all, but half a dozen, and will recover with proper care: Harry Johnson, Hamilton county, fracture of left arm and wounded in the head and leg.

Moses Eigleberger, of Hamilton county, contused wound back and legs. John Hornsby, Cuyahoga county; lacerated scalp wound. The engineer in charge of the boiler says he cannot account for the accident, as a second before the explosion occurred he had on but pounds of steam. It is interesting in this connection to know that one end of this same boiler exploded about a year ago, and it is said it has leaked ever since more or less. The loss will be about $30,000.

The chances for a satisfactory issue are believed to be increasing.
