We clip the following from the Gin
cinnati Columbian Of Saturday:

CHoLERA.-Cases Of disease strongly
resembling Asiatic cholera, of mild
form, not unfrequently occur in our
city, but we are glad TO perceive that
confidence in the experience of our ply
sicians, and the usually successful treat
ment of the disease, has dissipated all
excessive alarm, 1t is now clearly un-
derstood by most persons, that unripe
or decaying vegetables, exposure to foul
atmosphere, excessive fatigue, or any
thing that greatly prostrates the sys-
tenn, may result in symptoms akin to
those of cholera; but when prompt and
judicious treatment is adopted, the case
rarely terminates fatally.
The first symptom is usually a diar-
rhea, and if a physician is not called in,
it is the best plan to keep as still as pos
sible; to take sitting baths in a tub of
cold water, or if the case seems urgent,
compound of equal parts of myrrh,
capsicum, camphor. opium, and rhu-
barb, in brandy. We have seen this
taken in doses of teaspoonful every
half hour, or otherwise, according to
circumstances, in cases of genuine Ash
attic cholera, and it was of great bene-
fit.

HURRA FOR GALLANT OLD Ross.-On

HURRA FOR GALLANT OLD Ross.-On
our first page will be found the proceed
;ngs of large and enthusiastic meeting
of the Wings of Ross county, unfavora-
BILE to the nomination of Salmon P.
Chase for Governor of Ohio. The
meeting was composed of the very best
men in Ross county. old Clay and Web
ster Wings, who never turn their backs
when honor calls, and who will be found
fighting for principles, long as they can
raise an arm or wag tongue. Hon.
JOHN ScoTT HARRISON is recommended
as the Wing candidate for Governor of
Ohio. He is son of the illustrious
Gen. WIN. HENRY HARRISON, the Peo-
ple's choice for President in 1910, and
of all men else the best calculated to in
spire confidence in the old Whig ranks,
and strike terror to the one idea woolly
party. Read the resolutions, they are
full and to the point, clear as spring wa
ter and twice as pure. The tenth reso-
luton requests the Wings throughout
the State to hold meetings and rally in a
party capacity, preparatory to a State
Convention on or about the 9th inst
Gallia County will be represented in
that Convention, and on the 9th of Oc-
tober she will be found no sluggard.
Hon. JOHN L. TAYLOR, our efficient
Representative, addressed the meeting,
and showed that the present Fusion
movement had its origin in Washing
ton, in the nursing of the most rabid
disunionists in the country.
There was a similar meeting held In
Cincinnati, at which several thousend
persons were in attendance. 1t passed
similar resolutions, and recommended a
State. Convention on the 9th inst. at Co.
lumbus, and also presented the Hon.
JOHN ScorT HARRISON for Governor.
We see by the Cincinnati Times that
the 9th inst. has been agreed upon for
the Convention in Columbus. Let there
be full representation from every
county in the State.

Independent Republican, needs no COM
ment. 1t is but the expression of an
honorable man in that of an honorable
cause:
GALLIPdfIs JoURNAL.-In these days
when Abolition-f -fanaticism is rampant
at the North, it is with the utmost pleas
ure that we view the manly and inde-
pendent course of our neighbor of the
Gallipolis Journal. Mr.. Harper, the
editor, is gentleman of the true Amer
lean stripe, determined TO carry out the
principles of the party in their purity.
Friend Harper is placed in singular
position, being surrounded on one side
with Locofocoism, and on the other with
AbolitionIsm. But we believe there are
patriotic Americans enough in old Gal
liza to sustain him in his effort, to carry
out the principles of the Philadelphia
Platform.

oun MAnkErs.-we are opposed to

OuR MARKETs.-We are opposed 70
fayoritism, even though we are the re-
cipisuts, as it leads to ill-feeling on the
mart of others less fortunate, and is dia-
metrically opposite to the principles OF
Justice. But there are a few individu-
ais in this town who seldom darken the
market house with their presence, and
others who can come in at the last hour,
and be provided with the choicest cuts
of beef, while the regular attendants
upon the markets, and consequently the
most worthy customers, half the time
are compelled to purchase the refuse
pieces. There is less distinction and
more equality with the citizens OF Gal
lipolis than any town we ever lived IN,
this renders it agreeable and pleasant to
all, and speaks volumes for the intelll-
gence of the inhabitants. But why this
distinction on the part of our butchers
is more than we can conceive. Is their
money any better than that of the hard
working mechanic or laborer, or is one
portion of our citizens entitled to be
higher fed than the other? And even
if the latter is the case, we are opposed
to our butchers being self-constituted
Judges in the matter. Moreover, the
course has a strong tendency to break
down the markets, for our citizens will
not submit much longer to such imposi-
ton. We are in favor of carrying out
the principles of equality in this as in
almost every thing else-"frst come,
first served" should be the motto of
our butchers, whether our few aristo-
Gratis and hotel keepers get the first or
last cut. We believe there is an ordi-
nance regulating this grievance, and it
should be enforced forthwith.
There is another matter that needs
correction. Many persons are in the
habit of attending market before they
have washed, and it is rather retching
to the stomach to witness the manner
meat is paved over by them. There
are many persons naturally clean, and
as many again naturally dirty, and if
one'is allowed to handle the meat it is
difficult to prevent another doing the
same. These abuses should be correct
ed Immediately, and we hope the prop
er ones will take the matter in hand.

thanks, and will not refuse them. Ma

father. Comrades, ] thank you for it.
Ny brothersl Large reinforcements
are marching from all parts of our sa-
cred Russia. They will soon be with
us. Oppose. as you have hitherto done,
your manly breasts to the fire of our
impious enemies, and die as your COM
rades have died, with arms in your
hands, in an honorable contest-man to
man, breast to breast-rather than yio-
late the oath which you have sworn to
your country opreserye our Seyastopoll
Soldiersl the enemy is beaten-driE-
en- back with enormous losses. Your
commander again thanks you in the
name of the Emperor and of Holy Rus
sia. The time is near at hand when the
pride of the enemy shall be overthrow
his army shall be swept from
our territory like straw before the wind.
Until then have faith in God, and fight
for your Emperor and country.

The journal is entirely misteksnD nj

The Journal is entirely mistaken in,
supposing that Ar. Chase was ever a
Democrat (or ioeofoco) be was once us-
ed by them when the choice was only
between hin and Gidd;ngs;; but thai did
not make him a Democrat any more
than being unwilling to swallow the alb
clifton ticket makes the editor of the
Journals locofoco. 1t only proves that
men are sometimes'circumsSanced so as
not to be able to do as they wish.
Meigs Co. Democrat.
Not so much mistaken as you sup
pose, Mr.. Democrat. Mr.. Chase has
always been Jeffersonian Democrat,
although during the hard cider cam
paign of 1910 he voted for Gen. Harri.
son. In 1914 he supported the Liberty
party, (Abolitionist) and in 1s4S he
advocated the Free Soil party. In 1s49
he supported Mr.. Wood for Governor,
thus coming back to first principles;
since then he has again connected himself
with the Free Sellers. 1t is rather diff
cult matter to keep your finger upon
him, as he will turn in every conceiva-
bic shape and color, and if he is not a
Democrat Abolition-Free Soiler at pres
ent, we do not know what he is. Prob
ably you can snlighten us; if SO, "pitch
in" or refer the matter to our sweet
scented, burgamot and consistent
friend of the Telegraph. The coupari-
son of the Democrat is very poor one.
Men are seldom circumstanced SO as not
to be able to take a straight forward
honest and consistent course, which is
rather contrary to the Democratic creed.
1t is true we are placed between hawk
and Observation-Disclosures on one side
and locofocoism on the other--both
equally obnoxious to us, and when we
can do nothing more we shall borrow
our neighbor's French proverb, "ddjus-
tes uos futes," (" (which is, by free trans
lation, settle your differences by your
selves, gentlemen"
