THE GAS QrEsrIox.-We have taken con-
siderable pains to become posted as to the
sentiment of the public upon the method Of
settling the gas question, presented at the
last meeting Of the City Council, and are
glad to be able to say that the proposition
as agreed upon by the select committee on
the part of the Council and the officers of
the Gas Company, meets with almost uni
versal approval The people are earnest in
their desire to have the streets lighted, and
they feel that the arbitrament of case is safe
in the hands Of Messrs Bennett, Bills and
Armstrong, and are willing to abide by
their decision.
The Council holds an adjourned meeting
this evening to take the subject into con-
sideration, and it is to be hoped that that
honorable body in the plentitudc of its wis
dom, will agree unanimously upon such re-
ference. 1t is not wise to defend expensive
law suits, when there is chance for an
equitable adjustment, and that opportunity,
we truly believe, is now presented.

The LARCENY CARE-The case Of the
State VS.. the Westphal boys for larceny of
dry goods, hardware, ETC., has been settled
The boys through their attorneys-Messrs.
Hubbel and Claussen, plead guilty to petit
larceny in several instances,-Fred to four
and Henry to one. Fred goes to Jail four
months and Henry one month. Costs set
tied by the boys parents.
This is most remarkable case. Through
thick and thin, although in the hands Of
skillful prosecuting attorneys, they crossed
themselves several times, so as to leave no
doubt As to their guilt, had any existed 1t
first, they stoutly denied stealing the goods
They were talked with in private by the
gentlemen whose goods they stole. whose
confidence they most grossly outraged, and
who had no desire to visit upon boys 50
young the extreme penalty Of the law
they were plead with, coaxed, and COM
manded, but all the way through they main
tanned most stubbornly that they were inno-
cent. After the attorneys on either side
had agreed upon a settlement they then re-
fused to plead guilty to any charge, but
finally consented to let their attorney use
his discretion in the matter. They are
hardened little sinners.

TO the Readers and Friends
--OF THE
Old OHIO yTlTESMAN.

= We have this day considerably enlarged The DAILy
Ono STATESMAN, and now print it on plain and
handsome new type, and clear white paper.
In politics, The OHIo STATESMAN Is, in War as in
Peace for the Country for the Constitution and for
a Union Of equal States, with equal privileges. and
with equal and exact Justice to all its citizens. We
are for the old Flag. with not Star or Stripe erased.
and the old Union as FAR it possible to restore it.
and the existing Constitution in its spirit letter
Upon the coming events of the year, rest the hopes
Of tie People and Government. We are In the midst
of bloody and protracted civil war. Its duration
and close depend upon WISER truer and more patri-
Otc policy than have seen during the present Ad
ministration. Weowe it to the memory Of our faith.
ers and to the hopes of our children to the future Of
our country and to the best interests of mankind to
change policy which is drifting farther and far
ther from the landmarks of our patriotic sires.
THE STATESMAN will do all II can for those pur:
poses, and hence the publishers invite support and
encouragement from all those who, while wishing for
a good NEWSPAPER also wish to have 4 sound Con-
stitutional journal.
We publish a paper in which we seek TO give the
TRUTH. Our Commercial Reports, our Markets, our
Political and General News, carefully freed from
sensation character, and we seek TO make The
STATESMAN trustworthy in every particular.
For News, for Instruction, for Good Morals, for
Sound Political Sentiments. for Steady Defense OF
American Institutions, Take Read, and help to Cir
culate The OHIO STATESMAN.

scandal in Chicago.

Rev. Charles r. Thomas has presided over
the First Unitarian Church, corner of Wa
bash avenueand Peck Court, for about three
years. En- pdssdnt, we may remark, that
this is one of the richest and most influen-
tlal church societies in Chicago numbering
among its congregation and active members
many of our best known and most respected
citizens. rr
Thomas was formerly from Chelsea, Mas
sachusetts, and subsequently from New Or
leans. Of his antecedents we know nothing
more. Among the members of his flock
was the daughter of a wealthy and prOmi-
nent citizen, whose attractive personal
charms fired his admiration and excited his
lust. She married and left for a distant
city, and thither, week or two ago, the
reverend Lothario followed her. Taking
advantage of an opportunity afforded by a
trifling domestic disagreement between
husband and wife, Thomas, under cover of
his cloth and aided by all the devilish arts
and eloquence of master mind, succeeded
in accomplishing the ruin of one who con-
fided too implicitly in his seeming sanctity.
1t was momentary weakness from which
the wretched and deluded woman soon
aroused herself, and with true heroism and
high moral courage, she confessed all to her
husband. The latter telegraphed his father
in-law to come after his daughter. The
father complied, and arrived home with his
heartbroken child one day last week.
Upon arriving in the city the father dis
patched message to Thomas, telling him
to leave the city instantly, and stating, we
are informed, that he should shoot him If he
ever met him. By midnight succeeding,
last Friday, the cowardly seducer had de-
camped, bag and baggage, for parts un-
known.-Chicago Journal april IS. 10

Soldier Life ON the leapidan--The
Army i'm Waiting.

Mr.. Stillson, in one of his letters from the
Army of the Potomac to the World, writes:
Emerging from the shadow of winter, the
soldiers who people these encampments
linger awhile under the, rains of April be-
fore marching forth anew. The life in quar-
ters that they are to leave is now as natural
as the old routine of peace. This work of
war has become lite-work to thousands in
these tents. These camps that whiten the
slopes between the Rappahannock and the
Rapidan are the only villages along whose
streets their feet shall wander who are
marked for death before the summer closes.
The soldiers of the Army of the Potomac
have learned not to let the thought of how
or when the war shall end overwhelm that
of how they shall best dispose of themselves,
in all things consistent with military duty,
while it lasts. The camp is home to them; the
brilliant cities; the quiet hamlets, and farms
on which the labor of sturdy hands is miss
ed in spring. are of the past. Side by side
men show in battle, has been bred sober,
practical philosophy, thatscorns the neglect
ofminor details prevalent in the early stages
of the war. Every tent is household, with
what soldier uses in tkept as carefully as if
some command might not tomorrow Danish
its occupants forever. The veteran does up his
washing with the matronly air of house
wife; you may see him on almost any clear
day industriously scrubbing his well-worn
shirt or pants in the streams that wander
through these valleys. He mends his gar
ments at evening, humming an old tune;
he plays at quoits in the sunset, on the hard
trodden ground before his door, as he used
to by the blacksmith shop at home; he lis
tens to the hoarse song of a comrade with
the same sedate smile of appreciation that
accompanied his good wifes ballad in the
cottage at whose gate he shall never lounge
with neighbor this or that again. And in
the early darkness before the lights are out,
and while the camp is family turbulent with
many voices, who knows what the veteran
thinks, sitting with his head adroop, the fire
of his pipe half out, his rough hands nerv
ously twitching between his knees, while
from over the hill behind him float the notes
that distant band is playing-the song of

GEN. McCLELLAN's DIscIPLINE.-Sala, the
English correspondent says: When General
: Mcclellan was first put in command of the
Potomac most, he found that he was merely
the chief of an armed rabble. There was
scarcely any discipline, and in many in
stances the officers were greater ruffians
than the men. Mcclellan worked wonders
with his soldiers He taught them to obey.
He taught them to be respectable. Unhap-
PLY, and owing to the basest of intrigues,
he was forced into retirement; but the
mendable in the internal organization of
the Army of the Potomac is due to the per-
haps over cautious, but decidedly upright
and as decidedly ill-usad chieftain, George
