The people of Niles, Michigan, have
just been fooled by pretended clairvoy-
ance to the top Of their bent. A Mr.. Mar
tin mysleriously disappeared, and cir.
cumstauces led to the belief that he had
been murdered, and his body sunk in the
river. A clarvoyant woman of celebrity
was sent for, who, when magnetized,
confirmed the worst suspicious of the
populace. Hundreds gathered to search
the river where she said the body was
deposited, and several days were spent
in dragging aud removing food wood un.
der her clairvoyant direction.-W When
they failed to find the body in the place
designated. she declared the current had
swept it further down the river. aud she
was terribly agtated whenever she
caught glance Of the murdered corpse
in the turbid waters. Some of the men
engaged in the search declared that at
one time they 6shed up the body and
raised 10 the top Of the water, but it
slipped from their grapplings and sunk
again. OF course the excitement grew
intense, and the more so, when the wo-
man asserted that the clothes of poor
Martin had been uneartbed and burned
by his murderers during one night while
the search was going on. Various tests
were resorted to by the multitude to
test the sightseeing of the clairtoyant,
with satisfactory results to the credulous,

COLUMBUS, Dec. 3l-A. M.


Mr.. EDITOR: The organization of the
Senate was completed on Saturday after
noon, by the election of L. L. Rice, Free
Soier, to the Sergeancy-at-Arms on the
14Sth ballot. The Locofocos supported
their caucus candidate, Lewis F. Dibble
of Cuyahoga county. for one hundred bal
lots. Finding that there was little pros
pect of his election. they held caucus
at noon, and agreed to drop Dibble, and
that each Senator should run his favorite
candidate for ten ballolings, and then, if
no choice had been made, Mr.. Swift was
to nominate Mr.. Rice.
Accordingly in the afternoon, we had a
multitude Of candidates. Among the
rest, Mr.. Whitman presented the name
of Jesse G.. Beery of your county, and
for ten balotiugs. Jesse had the honor of
receiving fourteen votes. 1fhe had only
received one more he would have been
elected, but Fairfield was not destined
to the distinction, and Jesse did not
come il. On the 145h ballot, Mr.. Rice
was nominated and elected on the l4Sth,
receiving every Locofoco vote but one,
and two free soil votes. Mr. Beaver did
not vote for him. The Wings cast blanks
or voted for a Mr.. Baker.
Before proceeding to any other bust
ness, Mr.. Dennison rose, and gave notice
on behalf of himself and others, that he
would enter protest against the legality
of the organization just effected because,
1st. there were 81 persons claiming seats
on the floor, and I'd, because w. F. John,
son had voted on the ballotings, several
| ly, which resulted in the election of the
present officers. He would also, he said,
use every legal means to oust johnson
from his seat. Mr.. Dennison seemed
chop fallen, no doubt conscious, that it
is in great measure from his leadership,
that Johnson is in his seat and likely to
continue there. Mr.. Dennison has an.
nounced his intention to retire from pub.
lie lie, at the close Of his presenl Sena-
torial term. Personally have high
esteem for Mr.. Dennison, but as legis
lator and especially asa Wing leader, |
would rather dispense with him. 1t will
be found in the end, that the Wings have
lost the control Of the Senate through
bad management.
The usual resolution for the adoption of
standing rules in force at tho close of the
previous session, followed, and was the
cause of long debate. The adoption Of
the rules, is necessary to enable the
Speaker to appoint the committees. It
was admitted however, that the Locos
might seriously objectto one of the rules,
namely that which provides that'uo mem.

A story OF the HigllMny.

Not many yegrs ago, an lrishmst,
whose finances did not keep pace with
the demand made on his pocket, and
whose scorn ofhonest labor was immense
y unfavorable to their being legitimarely
filed, borrowed an old pistol one day,
when poverty had driven him to an ex-
treme and took to the highway, determined
to rob the first man he could conveniently
meet, who was likely to have a heavy
purse.
Ajolly old farmer came jogging along,
and Pat put him down instantly as par.
ty who possessed those requisites he
stood so much in need of himself. Pre-
sentiug the pistol, he ordered the agricul-
turist to "stand aud deliverl" ".
The poor fellow forked over some fifty
dollars, but finding Pat somewhat of a
greenhorn, begged five 10 take him
home-a distance of about halfa mile, by
the way. The reques, was complied
with, accompanied with the most pairo-
nising air. Old Acres aud Rods was a
knowing one. Eyeing the pistol, he
asked Pat The would sell it. 81
"ls il sell my pistoll Sowl an its that
same thing III be after doing What
will ye be after giving for III" p
ii" give you this five dollar bill for
il. lfa
"Donel aud done's enough between
two gentlemen, Down wild the dust and
here's the tool for yer"
The bargain was made by immediate
transfer. The moment the farmer got
the peIroneI, he ordered Patio shell out;
aud pointing the pistol, threatened to
blow his brains out if he refused.
Pat looked at him with comical leer,
and buiioning his brseches pockets, sung
out: ser a isl
Blow away, ould boyI d--l take the
bit Of powdher's in it.
We believe the old man nevdr told the
last part of the story only once, and that
was by the purest accident, Pat made
of, and 'onCe away, forever away has
been his motto. ''"

MR. EDIroR The Secretary of the

that 23l, 1888 votes we're deposited at

l43.702 voted for Convention, and on.

in its favor is only 2S,o35. s

actual majority against it in only Thirteen
viz: Champaign. Clark, Darke, FayetIe.
Gallia, Harrison, Jackson, Lawrence,
Madison, Mnskingam, Pickaway, Ross
and Scioto. By the official returns, il is
seen that the question was not made
party one. The call would have been
very lageIy defeated, if ii had not been
for the very general support of the wings,
Tho House again adjourned far the
want of quorum. 1t is expected there
will he one to morrow.
MIR. Byers has been the Locofoco can
didale for Speaker in the Senate. The
only advantage lha. ] can see to be can
didale for that responsible station, is the
being excused from The duty as Teller.
1t may be with view to divide this ex.
emplion equally that the democratic Sen
ators change their candidates so frequent
lly. Mr.. Whitman is again in his seat.
Quite an amusing scene occurred in
the Senate Chamber this afternoon. Mr.
BREsLIN. the author Of the letter that
goes by that name, happened to step in
side the bar Of the Senate. CONSERVATION
immediately exhibited itself on the face
Of the Wings. They suspected no doubt
that the ex.Speuker of the House, had
come up to fix things" in The Senate
and Notwithstanding the double care,
which Mr.. Beaver, the whig Teller took
to count the votes, when the ballots came
to be told, there were for Byers Is, and
Blake only Ia. Much to the relief of the
wings. the Chairman announced that as
there were only 2S Senators in their
seats, aud it was evident some one had
voted twice,-the ballot would be re-
taken. ....
Mr.. Breslin then shifted his seat to
the whig side, and wonderful conci-
dence!-a ballot or two alternately, Mr..
Blake had l5 and Mr.. Byers only Ia
votes. Here was Iiew discovery. The
ex.Speaker was impartial in his favors,
Shortly afterwards the Senate adjourn
ed for the day. Yours,
RUSHCREEK.
