caused her death in few minutes after the
work ofdeath was done. With the bloody
knife in his hand, he came to the door, and
remarked to two men near by, that he had
killed his wife, and these were the instru-
ments he did it with. The Coroner's In
quest is now { o'clock being held over
the body Of tho deceased. Four helpless
children are left to mourn the loss Of q

the moving cause. He says that he is sor.

FOR GoyERe or OF OHIO,
JOHN B. WELLER.
The Rank Of Wooster has failed.

Men and women who have labored for
weeks and months in order to lay up \
email store Cor the future. find all their
earnings vanished in night. Their i,b .
rious industry and careful economy have
been useless. The faithlessncss of corpo-
.rste bodies has robbed them; and the Grim.
sina code Of Ohio inflicts 10 punishment up.
On the robbers.
Q'he bank Of Wooster has failed! But it
has only followed in the footsteps Of oil the
banks which the State Of Ohio has ever
had. We believe there never was bank
in Ohio which has not failed either totally
or in part; and that tho people have in
some way. Lost immense sums by every one
which they have allowed to exis. in their
borders.
Now what is the moral Of this univers-
-al and uniform failure of banks %f issue to
fulfil their promisesi That they are no. le-
ultimate instruments in ths transaction Of
msrchahsile and commercial affairs. But
some will say, individuals fail, and this rea-
soning IS equally apple able to them. But
such Is not the case. The failure Of iEdi.
yiduals is the exception and not the rul.,
ssxhiIe with banks, failure is tie rule-the
unrersas, uniform and inraraable rule
Out Of the thousands Of banks which have
existed in the United States, who will dare
say that one teaih ever fulfilled their prom
ises. ~ t4z
But there is another matter to which it
will be well for the people to look. Ano-
thar banking system is no,s fastened upon
them. Its career has just commenced.
What will be its issue is hid in the future.
Judging the future by the past. they have
no reason to expect that its end will be
more fortunate and happy than that Of the
bank Of Wooster. This system is totally
irresponsible TO the people. The officers
sor State have no control over il. II is not
.even sutieutse examination by them. i,
lie under fine supervision Of Board Of Con-
troll, slected by the banks themselves
Thoss who mus, suffer il the present sys-
tenn should fail, have no sentinel on the
wa.eh-tower to ndy;se them Of the approach
Of danger. Let the penple, then, learn
~isdpm before il is too late. II the system
now in existence must continde until the
period fixed for its termination, it is no.
shing more than right that those who will
suffar, il h fails, should have the means of
kno,eing that it is properly conducted.

For the Portage Sentinel.
Dr. Soule'S Sovereign Balm Pills.

mr.. Sentinel:-Your "Ant-Imposition''
correspondent Of Jan. 10Th, has appeared
once more In your paper Of March 22d,
over the signature Of A. Moore. He has
acknowledged that the statements in his
first communication were not all true. 1t
appears that his information came from q
man who has been an Editor a, Chaqrin
raiis. II part Of this Editors statements
are ialse want 10 know by what rule Mr..
Moore or the public can rely on any part
as being true. But says Mr.. Moore, she
Will make affidavit to it," Suppose he
should after an admission that part of it
was not true-wou.d he be believed2 will
leave the public to decide in this matter.
Mr.. Moore's informant says denied and
prevaricated, until subterfuge became
more troublesome than truth. I need not
again say it is false. There was enough
said on that point in my other communi.
cation. 1t does not look we'll for him to
accuse others Of ssprevarication and sub
terfuge" while in his present position.
But says Dir. Moore again-'An agent
of yours has affirmed that the pills were
made in Ohio. livery much doubt it, but
suppose he did; it is not true, and / should
think he would be little more cautious
about what statements he makes upon the
Information Of others. He talks about
scattering broad cast an unsafe and haz-
ardous drug and playing upon the credulty
of a generous and econfiding community"
Mr.. A. Moore has immortalized himself
His name will go down to posterity as one
Of the greatest benefactors Of his race for
making the discovery that the Sovereign
Balm pills are ''an unsafe and hazardous
drug!" The ''credulous, generous and
confding'' citizens Of Mantua and vicinity,
should call meeting at once and vote him
leather.medal for his wonderful! discovery
and the interest he has manifested in their
welfare. Perhaps it would be no more
than' Justice to inform Mr.. Moore and the
public about tho mandrake roots. Mr.
Sunderlin did grind some mandrake roots
for DR.. Buffers Restorative pills made at
Chugrin Falls, and it was probably an
agent for those pills instead of the Sove.
reign Balm referred to by Mr.. Moore.
And now to bring this communication to a
close we ask for the name of the Chagrin
Falls Editor who figures so largely in this
whole matter. We want to become &C.
quinted with him.
A L. SOULE.
