The New State Officers.

The Inauguration of two Of the new
Democratic State officers took place on
Monday, January i2lh.
A joint committee of the two Houses
of the General Assembly waited upon
the Hon. VIM. w. Armstrong, and in
formed him of his election to the Office
of Secretary of State. He was then
sworn in by Judge Sutliff, Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court Of Ohio, and at
once entered upon the discharge of his
official duties. Mr.. Armstrong has the
ability aud qualifications to make one Of
the best officers the State has ever had
in that position; and we. are sure the
people will never regret having given it
to him. His was a nomination and on
election eminently fit to be made.
His brother, j. M. Armstrong. ESQ.,,
of Cleveland, is his Chief Clerk. He is
amply qualified for the place, and viii
make an accomplished aud efficient Of
fcer.
An informal committee of the Demo
cratic members of the General Assem-.
bly,, waited upon the Hon. Lyman r.
Critchdeld, and informed him Of his cleo
tion to the Office of Attorney General
He was then also sworn in by Judgt
Sutlilf, and entered upon the duties o
the position, to which he is not stran
ger-having been law student in th'
office Of Hon. George e. Pugh, wheI
that gentleman was Attorney General o.
Ohio. Weare satisfied that Mr.. Critch.
field will discharge his official duties il
an able, faithful and efficient manner
and that the people will never have oc
casion to regret that they elected him.

sB The other day Gov. Tod up!
pointed Dewitt Kenuon, q Union DEM
ocrat, Of St. Clairsville, to the position
of Auditor of State. Whereupon sixty
Republicans of the Legislature pitched
into the Governor forappOiuting Dem
ocrat, and the Ohio State Journal says
that Tod stock for U. S. Senator has
fallen an hundred per cent, below par, in
consequence. Gov Tod is in bad com.
pany, and the quicker he gets back into
the Democratic ranks, the better for bis
conscience. ....r

e8y In a general debate which took
place in Congress few days ago, Mr..
Cox, Of the Columbus district, asked our
illustriouS representative Mr.. Bingham,
if he was not beaten in his canvass for
Congress because he belonged to sec.
tional party? Mr.. Bingham replied
that he was not beaten at all, but was
simply swndled out of the election.
If that is the case, it must have been
wholesale swindle, when the majority
against him was about 1890.

The holidays have passed and the New Year
has began, and still we are called upon to al
leviate the sufferings Of our brave soldiers, by
furnishing them with hospital supplies. Shall
we then remain longer idle Again we ap,
peal to the ladies' to be more regular in at
tending our weekly meetings on Friday after
noon and evening. We hope that the recent
battle at MurfreesborO in which so many Of
our respective friends were engaged, will a.
rouse dormant energies. What lady is there,
that after rerding the subjoned extract, that
will not feel doubly repaid for the previous
efforts to contribute to the comforts of the SOL
ders, and redouble those efforts in the future.
"a gallant volunteer who was wounded 10
one of our recent battles, writes as follows:
1t was about five o'clock iu the afternoon when
] arrived at the hospital. Soon after my en-
trance was bathed in q large tub of tepid
water, then to bed, and q nice clean White
shirt and pair of drawers were given me;
now encased my anatomy in my wardrobe, and
while so doing my eyes caught sight of the
words From the Ladies' Aid Society, stamped
in black ink on each garment l laid down
and pulled the blankets over my head anC
thought of my situation Here am in hos
ptal, prostrated with disease, now out in bo
dy and mind, over eight hundred miles from
any spot can call home. My own mothe
and sister long since were remembered witt
the dead, but the noble hearted women of tn,
North, those angels of mercy, are supplying
: the place Of mother and sister, not only to me
but to thousands of suffering soldiers from
every State. Presently felt two large tear
coming down my cheeks and myraids of 9th
ers dropping on my pillow, I am stron
man. and it requires some sudden and dee
grief to bring me to tears, put tears of graft
tude flowed from me that evening rs freely a
drops of rain from an april cloud, and like
spoiled and fretful child, cried myself

officers and men. But the Yankee papers
figure this away to less than 500, ,00O5in ac-

sick, 10000 are stragglers and desesters,
and tina. fow will be disposed to place the
dead and wounded at less than from 200,-
900 to 100000, and many at considerably
;oyerthese figures. Say 300, 900, and these
items sum up 630, 600, and leave the num.
ber now in service only 466, 900, out Of
109oO00 who have been mustered from
