Gov. Broush ON the women Of 0hlo.

A few days since, Col. Craighead, on
behslfofthe Ladies Of Dayton, present
ed Gov. Brough with a beautiful flag.
The Governor, in reponse, paid the
following, tribute TO the women Of
Ohio: ~ .-'l r. a' "t'''r '.i
|" Wherever any noble feeling was the
incentive to duty UPON his part, wo-
men has ever been found ready to
sustain him, and what do not we owe,
Sir, to the women of Ohiu7 Who were
so untiring in the contest we have pas
sed through? Men labored, but wo.
men labored with them, and the ma
jority which Ohio declared was large.
" due to the patriotic appeals, the en-
treaties and the smiles of the women
Of the State. Then who shall esti-
mate the good they have done to our
srmiesf What AN immense amount
of aid and encouragement they have
carried to our brave men in the field,
to men in the hospitals. enduring the
psngs Of fearful wounds. to men snf.
fcring from privation and toll How
unfaltering their patience. How en-
during their devotion, and all this
then, simply because the men Gere
engaged in upholding the cause which
that banner represents. For all this
the women Of our country have hot
had the credit they deserve. but they
have done il in supporter agoyerh
ment that protects them better than
any other government on the face Of
the earth This banner represents
that spirit upon the part Of the ladies'
and it is therefore doublS dear to me
on that account.

To MAKE PERs1xMoN BEER.-Gather the persim.
mons perfectly ripe and free from any roughness.-
Work them into large leaves with bran enough to
make them consistent; bake them 80 thoroughly
that the cake may be brown and dry throughout,
but not burned. They are then ct for use. But if
you keep them any tineit will be necessary to dry
them frequently in an over moderately warm. Of
these loaves broken into POWDER take eight
bushels Pour on them forty gallons Of cold water,
and after two or three days draw it off; boil it
other beer, adding little hops. This makes very
strong beer. o..
The following is one of the very best receipts for
making the beer: Sweet ripe persimmons, mashed
and strained one bushel whea: bran one half bush.
81. Mix we'll together, and bake in loaves of con.
venient size; break them in clean barrel and add
twelve gallons of water and two three ounces of
hops Keep the barrel in warm room. As soon
as fermentation subsidies bottle of the beer having
good, long corks, and pace.the bottles in low tenn
perature, and it will keep and improve for twelve
months. THE beer, when properly made, in warm
room, is an exquisitely gatful beverage contain.
ing no alcohol and is to the connosseur Of temper.
ate taste not inferior to the fermented Juice of the
vine.
The ordinary way Of making II ID more simple
and the drink IL relished heartily by most persons
aayer Of straw Is put in the bottom of the cssk on
which sufficient quantity Of fruit we'll mashed, is
laid, and the cask then filled with water 1t should
stand 10 warm room, and If the weather Is cold
fermentation will be promoted by occasionally put
ting warm brick or stone in the barrel. The i'd

SOMEBODY'S DARLING.

Into q ward of tho whitewashed halls,
Where the dead and the dying lay,
Wounded by bayonets, shells and balls,
Somebody's darling was borne one aay-,
Somebody's darling, so young ana so ofaSe'
Wearing yet on his sweet pa,e race
Soon to be hid in the dust in the grave
The lingering light of his boyhoods. grace.
Matted and damp are the curls Of gold
Kissing the snow Of that fair young brow,
Pale are the lips of delicate mould
Somebody's darling is dying now:
Back from his beautiful blne-veined brow
Brush his wandering waves Of gold; g
Cross his hands on his bosom now
Somebody's darling is still and cold.
Kiss him once for somebody's sake,
Murmur prayer all soft and low
One bright curl from its fair mates take
They were somebody's pride, you know.
Somebody's hand hath rested there;
Was it mothers, soft and whitef
Or have the lips of sister fair
Been baptized in their waves OF lightI
God knows best He has somebody's love;
Somebody's heart enshrined him there
Softly waited his name above,
Night and morn, on Inc wings VI Pi"Jel'
Somebody wept when he marched away.
Looking so handsome, brave and grandl
Somebody's kiss on his forehead lay, ::
Somebody chung to his parting hand.
Somebody's watching and waiting for him,
Yearning to hold him again to her heart;
And there he lies with his blue eyes dim,
And the smiling, child like lips apart.
Tenderly bury the fair young dead
Pausing to drop on his grave tear,
Carve ON the wooden slab DER his head:
"Somebody's darling slumbers here"

Our BLOCK ABE. RUNNERS AND OUR NAVAL Orr
cERs.-There is one singular fact connected with
our blockade-running vessels to which, We think,
the attention of the Navy Department ought to be
directed, if it has not already been. Only single
one of them has been lost while under the Com.
mand of officers of the nsvy! Officers of the M.
Wy, in the meanwhile, have commanded many Of
them and made many trlps The Coquette, for in.
stance, which was the most Indifferent of all our
ships, and which has now been sold, made nine
soand trips under the command of Lieutenant Gar.
ter and saved them every one, clearing for the Gov
eminent at least six hundred thousand dollars
The Robert E. Lee, the best ship We bad, was sue
cesstu in all her numerous trips IS long as she was
under the command OF Lieutenant Wilkinson
The first trip she made after the command had been
transferred to person wh9 was not an officer of
the navy she was beached and captured, or sunk
While the officers Of the navy have been sue
cessful in all their many trips except one, every
ship not commanded by an officer of the navy has
been lost The inference is irresistible. None
but officers Of the navy ought to command our
blockade ships. They arc skillful seamen, good
navigators, men of standing and character the
cause is their cause, and they are above all the
suspicion that can be attached to others, less f.
vorabfy situated.
We would not thrust advice upon the depart
ments, but We venture to hope that some attention
VIII be paid the striking fact have laid before
the public in this aIticle.-Richmond Dispatch.

An IchthyOlogical Curiosity.

An 1CntuyOiOSkCdl NutaOSAsys
Mr.. Barnum to-day exhibited another novelty ct
self away for season to repose till the arrival Of
favorable opportunity for resuscitaton.
The Snowman in his wisdom fixed the hour Of
noon for the event. apd crowd ofspectators, liter
airy men, women, reporters aud others, were pres
emit to witness the phenomenon.
1t had been reported thst Professor Agassiz would
ofciate at the revival Of the fish, to remove the GER.
ements and esrthern case, but instead Mr.. Barnum
took the stand himself to explain and superintend
the operation.
He held in his hand lump of dried earth about
five or six inches in diameter, which he informed
the assembly contained living tenant On one
side of the lump was hole, which he explained to
be an aperature for the purposes Of respiration.
The FISH belonged to the species termed by natur
alists the Lepidosiren anecians, and was obtained
from the Gambia river in Western Africa, some
three hundred miles from the ocean. The first dis
covery of this family in ichthyology was male in
lea. The species then discovered was named Lsp'-
dosiren paradora-the African type being Later
acquisition to science.
It is the practice of these fishes to surround them
selves with shroud Of leaves and coffin of mud,
there to remain "high. and dry" for months, or
perhaps years. till the recurrence Of rainy season
shall dissolve away the earth and restore them to
0 home IN their native element
The negroes of Africa, aware Of this habit of the
Lepidosiren, are wont to dig them from their hi
ding places and use them for food.
Mr.. Barnum having concluded his explanation,
invited several gentlemen to the stageto inspect the
fish as it lay imbedded. A careful scrutiny showed
movement apparently for respiration. An assis.
tant then brought saw, and carefully cut through
the earthly coffin On all sides. He then price: it
open. exposing the fish to view.
1t lay apparently torpid on one of the pieces,
doubled up head and tail together and swathed in
fold of leaves which were attached to its body by
tenacious slime
Mr.. Barnum caused ITO be passed around among
the audience for inspection. 1t was then returned
and lifted carefully off the fragment of earth the
leafy shroud taken of, and the fish placed care
> fully in q tank of water.
After few moments it exhibited signs of ANNA
ton Its tentacles 1ibratsd the body Strengthened
ont and it began to move. 1t required many
minutes before it was fully restored to the posses
son of its faculties" and certain injuries which it
had sustained about the tail greatly DISTRACTED free
motion.
Mr. Barnum received several Of these curious fish,
es from London, and had caused most of them to be
opened in private, before venturing on public en-
tertainment
The success of his experiment was such as to
warrant this exhibition, as any one can perceive by
visiting the aquaria in which several 1esuscitated
Lepidosirens are living.
He now contemplates the importation of more
specimens after which the public may expect to see
the exhibition re peated.

recognized as adequate 10 England, are treated as
the same, and the evils likely to- flow, the same, to
w.t. that innocent persons apprehended on suspicion
will suffer long imprisonment Imprisonment
is treated as the uniform result of suspension and
the imprisonment is for crime, actual or upon sus-
picion. But the learned commentator soothes the
jealousy of freedom With the assurance, that as
the suspension can take place only in cases Of re-
belion or invasion when the public safety NAV
require it. just and wholesome restraint is thus
imposed, switch cats down at . blow q fruitful
means Of oppression
Mr.. Jefsrson q corr. $40 says, "why suspend
the writ of Aabeds corpus ia instruction or rebel
lion s" If the public safety requires that the gov.
eminent should have man imprisoned on less
probable testimony those than in other emergen-
cies, let him be taken and tried retaken aud tried
while the necessity con !inues" Thus he clearly
considers the suspension applicable only to crmi.
nal or supposed criminal matters, when the party
was TO b necessarily Imprisoned. His opposition
to the power Of suspension had justly been doubly
great had he supposed that It could be used to
prevent the courts from passing upon naked aues-
ton Of abstract law in cases which involved no
offence against Law, morals or religion.
The letter of Luther Martin, (Elliott's debates
B75-Hurd, l2D one of the delegates from Mary
land who opposed the power Of suspension, m
assigning the causes of opposition assumes that
the suspension could only reach cases of crime or
supposed crime, for which the person charged was
to be confined ia prison. 30 fully was he of this
opinion, that be calls 1t power to suspend the

Charles, which concerns crimes alone
| The power" says Hurd, 1928, Of suspending
the privilege Of the writ of ha6eas corpus is, By
the Federal Constitution and by those Of the several
States limited to those occasions in which the
