OHo.-The Native Americans in Ohio, dis
pleased with the action of the Republican
State Convention, held an Indignation meet

soldier of fortune, Lewis d. Campbell, and
of John Scott Harrison, one of the "Oppo-
sition," who does not hesitate to avow his
hostility to Republican principles and mea-
sures. A resolution was adopted calling

The FLORAL PRocEssIoN.-The City Gov
ernment with commenda5le promptness and
generosity, has made conditional appropria-
ton for a floral procession, and other exercises
on the fourth of July. 1t only remains for the
citizens to select an efficient and responsible
committee of arrangement and to contribute
such an additional amount as may be neces-
sary to secure an attractive and creditable dis
play. The brief period which intervenes rem
ders immediate action desirable-if the cele-
bration is desirable at all. OF this there can
be no doubt Official notice of the appropria-
ton by the city is given in another place. We
trust that those who are interested in having
becoming demonstration, will see that early
steps are taken to secure such one as the
City Government has contemplated.

How THE INDIANS MAKE WHIsKY-The
Apache indians have mode of making whis-
ky which would appear novel to the manufac-
turers of that article in the Ohio Valley. The
firing up process is rather slow yet these
Apaches seem to get liquor which makes
good drink come. The process, according
to correspondent of the Arizonian, is as fol-
lows -
The corn is first soaked for twenty-four
hours; a hole is then dug in the ground gem
orally in wigwam, and some dry grass laid
on the bottom; on this grass the corn is placed,
and layer of grass over it. -Four or five
times day warm water is sprinked over the
corn, and at night the family sleep on it to in
crease the warmth, and make the corn sprout
quick. AT the end of four or five days the
corn is all sprouted; it is then dried and
pounded fine, put in kettle, and boiled for
1--WE hours when cooled, it is mixed with SUI
gar and flour, and left to ferment for twelve
hours, when it is ready for drinking. Al
though not rank to the taste, and fiery, its in
toxicating power is very great, and when an
Indian has quart or two aboard he don't care
copper who is President of the United
States"

THE SILENT CoUPLE.-The papers relate q
story of z couple in Cincinnati, who had not
exchanged word during twenty years of mar
ried life. They were not mutes, however
The Baltimore Dispatch tells of similar in
stance The parties were wealthy and highly
respectable. They had a numerous family of
children, who had grown up and were all in
furnishing circumstances, with troops of
grandchildren, who frequently visited them.
They were falling into the sere and yellow
leaf and were both lettering to the tomb at the
age of nearly eighty but although they had
lived under the same roof, eaten at the same
table, entertained the same guests, received
the frequent visits Of their children and grand
children, they had not interchanged word
for forty years. To almost every one, the
cause was a mystery, and an impenetra-
bic one-for neither the husband or wife
would hear tom any one the slightest allusion
to the subject. Yet there was one, an old SER
want, almost as old as her master or mistress,
who did know, but she kept the secret faith
fully. 1t was whispered, however, that zeal
atormer sutton, which she had heedIessly, per-
haps thoughtlessly preserved. Impetuous and
unjust accusations followed. The indignant
wife told her husband that she would never
speak to MN again, but for the sake of her chill
dren she would not leave him. She kept her
work with persistent obstinacy, and he follow
ed the same course. They appeared absolute
ly indifferent to each Others existence
AT length the old man died. The wife had
not come near him in his last sickness, and she
came not to look upon his corpse until they
were about closing the coffin and bearing him
from the house in which they had dwelt so
singularly for nearly halfa century, when with
firm though feeble step she entered the room,
walked to the coffin, gazed few moments at
his features. now mOtiOnlpSS in dpntb apd
without word, a tear, or even the shadow of
an expression upon her wrinllled face, went
back again, unassisted, to her own apartment.
The funeral took place, and during the alb
sorblng proceedings of the time, she was left
alone. After the funeral cortege had departed
and was out of sight the old servant repair ed
to the room of her mistress. She noticed she
was sitting very still in her chair apparently
looking out of the window. Seeing her con
tlnue motionless, she spoke to her, but there
was no answer She went to her-she was
