vALLANDIGHAM IN OHIO.
Clement /. yallandigham, formerly a
Congressman from Ohio and latterly a
resident of Canada for political and pru-
Dental reasons, arrived at Hamilton O..
Wednesday morning He made speech
there before democratic convention and
then went to his home in Dayton. Ru-
mors were current soon after his arrival
there that he had taken the night train
for Toledo, but it was subsequently, an

address to the citizens of Dayton. Thurs
day. There is considerable apprehension
of trouble at Dayton and the people mani
tested considerable excitement.
Vallaudigharo's appearance at the dem
ocratic district convention at Hamilton
created apparent surprise among larger
portion of the assembly. He was recciv-
cd with great enthusiasm, He spoke
briefly from written document, narrat-
ing his arrest and defending his action.
He said the assertion of the president that
be was arrested because he had laborcd
with some to prevent the raising of
troops, and had encouraged assertions
from the army, and had disobeycd or
failed to counsel obedience to lawful au-
thority, was absolutely false. He appeal.
ed for proof to every speech he had made,
and to the record of the military commits
sion by the trial and sentence of which he
was banished. He said the sole offense
laid to his charge was words of criticism
of the the public policy of the admins
tration addressed to open political meet
ings of his fellow citizens. For more
than year no public man had been ar
rested nor any newspaper suppressed with
in the state of Ohio for an expression of
public opinion, while hundreds of persons
in public assemblies and through the
press with language and violence in which
he never INDUCED. had criticised and
condemned the acts and policy of the adj
ministration, denouncing the war and
maintained even the propriety of recogni-
zing the southern confederacy.. He did
not mean any longer to be the only man
of the democratic party who is to DO
victim to arbitrary power. IF Abraham
Lincoln seeks my life, let him 80 declare /;
but he shall not again restrain me of my

the rights, liberties and privileges which
he had never forfeited, but of which
for so many months he had been de-
prived.
He reiterated his right to criticise the

SAVE YOUR cURRANr BUSHES.


The currant bushes and goosberry
housekeeping the black currants-
are all being destroyed in this section of
country by small green worms which de-
your the leaves in few days. leaving
nothing but the naked bushes.
We have just discovered that pulverized
white helle5ore, 2eratrum album, will eff
fectually destroy every worm in less than
one hour without injuring the fruit or the
bushes.
Lsprinkled our gooscberry bushes with
less than one cents worth of it; and in
less than two hours, every worm was eli

agonies of death. rs- .' a.
Yesterday morning they appeared in
untold numbers on our currant bushes.
The bushes were sprinkled with it, and
in less than two hours, only now and
then worm could be found. t
l then placed a few of them on a paper,
and sprinkIed them lightly with it, and
it gave them all sorts of fits, and they
seemed to 60 into the worst kind of con-
vulsions, and all kicked up and died in
few minutes. a,a -e
One army Of these worms will come up
and destroy the leaves, and as soon as
the leaves appear again, eggs vial be de-
posted on the under side of the leaves,
from which another crop will soon rise up
to dcvour that crop of leaves.
White hellebore is death to them. The
least amount of it, when sprinkled on
them, "will give them fits" White he'll
lebore is very poisonous. But there is no
danger in using it, if care is only cxer-
cised to keep it from the nose and mouth.
1t would probably cause person to sncezc
to death In short time. 1t is drab-
colored powder, very light, and will fly
like aower dust. A quart of it will
weigh about a pound. A fourth Of q
pound will kill all the worms on long
rows of bushes. 1t can be obtained at
drug stores at fifty or sixty cents per
pound.
put few spoonfuls of it in pepper
box, and sprinkle it all over the bushes
as lightly as possible; and turn up the
bushes and throw it all about their base
mot on the ground-but on the stems
and leaves, in the middle of the bushes
Put it on at any time, whether the leaves
be wet or dry. The least atom of it will
arrest their ravages. Therefore sprinkle
lightly, although liberal spriukling will
not injure the bushes.
| think helcbore will destroy all kinds
of insects on the vines and flowers of our
gardens. There will be no danger in try
ing it on cucumbers, melons, radishes, or
anything else.
In those localities whore the bushes are
already destroyed this year, it would be
we'll to obtain small quantity of it, 50 as
to have it ready for use. .ss.

A Feminine Triumph In the Nineteenth
Century.

The London Globe discloses the following
information: "Ths beir apparent Of Russia,
the future master Of realm of more than
seven millions Of square miles-an empire
comprising one seventh of the territorial
part Of the globe, and about one twenty
sixth part of its entire surface-is in want
Of wife and cannot fnd one. This aston
ishing piece Of news is going the round Of
the continental papers. Grand Duke Nicho-
las, heir apparent Of all the Russians, twentv-
one years old, tall, good-looking, in splendid
uniform, speaking in five languages, and
with all the accomplishments, is willing
to we'd, yet cannot get wife, 1t is said
that Grapd Duke Nicholas has only five
loyal princesses offered for his selection; and
that, unfortunately, Of these five high-born
ladies' he does net like three, and his i'm.
perial father does not like the other two.
So that, in point of fact, the heir sxpectant
of one-seventh of the earth can get no wife
at all. Poor Nicholas! There was time
when the Gar and his family were allowed
to pick their partners from among a whole
fora Of princesses. 1t is said of Peter the
Great, that when he wanted spouse for his
son Alexis he circulated a round robin among
The five score reigning families Of Germany,
bidding them to send all their manageable
daughters, deduciing the ones to Moscow,
for inspection. The invitation was respon-
ded to by crowd Of fair and illustrious
damsels, and the faires, flower from among
them was picked for the drunken and disso-
lutte heir apparent. Subsequently the busi-
ness was conducted mainly by advertisement.
A hint given in one of the Hamburg papers,
then considered the organs of the Russian
government, generally brought lot of por-
traits to the Imperial court, from the nspec
lion of which resulted further negotiations.
Princess Clara, of Hohsnhausen Ohnebrod,
being held the most eligible of the ma,rimo
na candidates, WAS then invited, together
with some old Ohnebrod aunt, to spend a
couple of weeks at the Imperial court, where
she was kept if finally approved of, or if not,
returned to her loving parents at the grim
castle Of Hohenhausen. The Congress Of
Vienna, by the sweeping away of nearly
hundred crowned heads from the field OF
royalty. had the effect of greatly essening
the charmed circle within which the Cars
were wont to rove, and Gar Nicholas, when
not yet heir apparent, had to pay assdious
courtship to win the hand of the King Of
Prussa's daughter. and his three younges,
sons experienced actual difficulty to get a
bride. The young ladies of good family"
finding that they were eagerly sought after,
and that, in fact, the demand was far greater
than the supply, refused to go to Russia -
They objected TO the country as too cold;
and to the rulers as being given to the ugly
ha1; of kao ho;r
withstanding. Thus the circles narrowed
more and more around the Cars proud
family, until it has now become the humiI
iatng necessity to declare that the heir
apparent of Russia cannot find wife at all.
1t ia the greatest victory the ladies have
achieved in the nineteenth century.

to the same proprietor. This mode of feed

Of offending popular prejudice; but the ex-
tent Of the system may be inferred from the
fact that the farm sends to market every
week no less than 10000 eggs. at Cd. per
dozen. A little grain is given with the
horse flesh, and under this strange diet the
hens lay all the year round, and the produce
tion of eggs is found to be more profitable
than the sale Of the chickens. No wonder
the system is worked in secrecy, remember
ing how largely poultry enters into French
cookery, and the fact of the omolette being
favored with horse flesh would disgust all
the gourmands in Paris. But to proceed

An Enterprising Agent.

An enterprislng travelling agent for we'll
known Cleveland tomb stone manu- factory
recently made visit to small town in a
neighboring county. Hearing in the village
that a man in remote part of the township
had lost his wife, he thought he would 90
and see him, and offer him consolation and
grave stone on his usual reasonable terms.
He started. The road WAS a horrible, fright
full one; but the agent persevered and ar.
rived at the bereaved mans house. The
bereaved mans hired girl told the agent
that the bereaved man was splitting fence
rails over in the pasture about two miles,
The indefatigabIe agent mounted his horse
and started for the pasture. After falling
into all manner of. mud holes. scratching
himself with briars, and tumbling over de
cayed logs, the agent found the bereaved
man. In a subdued voice he asked the man
if he had lost his wife. The man said he
had. The agent was very sorry to hear it,
and sympa,hized very deeply with the man
in his great sorrow; but death, he said, WAS
an insatiate archer, and shot down all, of
both high and low degree. He informed
the man that what "~as his loss WAS her
gain," and would be glad to sell him a grave
stone to mark the spot where the loved one
at prices defying competition. The bereav'
cd man said there was Il slight difficulty in
the way. Haven't you lost your wifrl" in
qured the agent. "Why, yes, l have" said
the man; "buL no grave stone amt necessary,
for you see the cussed crittsr ain't dead yet;
she's scooted with another man!'
