Why Do ANY SUcH THNG2-lt is now
said that the stamp tax on newspapers has
been abandoned by Congress, but that they
are to be taxed according 10 circulation.
What folly is displayed in this Let Con
gress tax property, of every kind apd name,
if thought best and newspapers with the
rest. But what folly to single out depart
ment of labor, suffering more from the war
than almost any other that could be named,
and impose unequal burdens upon it. As
sc. All this vain search TO avoid meeting
the matter Of direct taxes boldly and squarely
upon the basis acted upon by the State gov
ernments it seems to us is sheer nonsense.
The idea Of raising money by any lodges to
avoid imposing heavy burdens upon property,
as SUCH will fail in the end and only.lead u Q

IT is said that there is now in the State
Lunatic Asylum, in Columbus, aman who has
been there seven years, and imagines himself
the Son of God. He has lately tasted for
twenty-one days, and at the end seemed not
the worse for it, only little more excitable.
This statement is confirmed by nurses and
doctors. He resisted any temptation pre-
sented to him to eat and drink till the expi-
ration of the twenty.one days.

Street Pnssenser Cars

An Unprotected Female" asks in the
Philadelphia Ledger:
"Are there no means by which ladies can
be protected from the disgusting nuisance of
tobacco splitting in the passenger cars of the
city,"
This filthy practice is not tolerated in the
street cars of this city-nor is smoking in the
cars allowed. The Cincinnati street passen
ger cars are models of neatness and comfort.
They are emphatically the coaches of the
people, and an indispensable convenience.

THAT SET OF TEETH Our readers will re
member the case we noticed some time since
of a gentleman Of Euclid who swallowed a
set of artificial teeth while asleep. From the
time of the accident he has been under treat
ment by Doctor Strong, who has used every
endeavor TO get the troublesome intruder out
OF his patients body. The teeth were soon
got out of the stomach into the bowels,
where they remained for about seven weeks,
causing considerable pain at intervals. A
day or two since they passed out of the body
in the usual manner, leaving the man per-
fectly well. The teeth are now in Doctor
Strong's Office. We have not learned
whether the owner intends having them re-
set in his mouth Cleveland Herald.

In no instance in the world has rebellion
been a safe business. Those who undertake
to break up Governments, and sacrifice what
others hold to be vital interests, assume
bloody responsibility. The process is very
unsafe, and all men of sense appreciate it..
Men are apt to lose the rights Government
guarantees to them when they spurn those
guarantees by attempting to destroy the
Government.
