Must Brace Themselves for a De
Tense of Their Principles.

Principles, a short time ago, we were told
by Republican journals, is everything with
the Republican party. Considerations ap-
pertaining to Office we're entirely too grow
cling tor them. This was said at time
when they did not think that the President
would have the audacity to require from
Federal office-holders an unequivocal sup
port of his policy. Some are beginning ev-
identity to change their views touching this
matter. We have an instance of this sort
in the Toledo Blade. In its issue of May Sd
it announces that it has heard from unques-
tionable authority that Hon. s. S. Cox has
written Hon. w. D. HILL, Representative in
the Ohio Legislature from Defiance county,
''stating that the work of decapitating loyal
officials and replacing them with Johnson
ians was to be Immediately commenced"
and requesting him Ito at once ascertain
who would accept the positions and take
the necessary pledges, and draw up memo
rials asking for the change and procure as
many signatures as possible, which memo
rials he should forward as soon as he could
, to him (Mr. Cox and he would see that the
removals and appointments were made"
The Blade don't like it. 1t is not pleased
over it. 1t revolts at the idea that Mr.. Cox
and Mr.. HILL should have any say in the
matter of the removal and appointment of
Federal office-holders. Believing the state
ment to be true absolutely, it declares that
cit. is time for Union men to dismiss all
hopes Of settlement of the disagreement
between the President and the party, and
brace themselves for struggle in defense
OF their principles" That is as much.as to
say that the Republicans should "brace
themselves for struggle" TO hold on to the
offices. In that their principles consist"

The WesteryiIIe Forgers.

We have just heard of the arrest of two
men for forgery, belonging to Westerville,
in this county. Their names are Timothy
Lockwood Newcomb, who is about q years
of age, and has wife and family, and his
brother-in-law, William Benton, young
man of about 20 years old. From the re-
ports we hear of these two individuals, they
have been somewhat notorious, the older in
particular, for apprOpriating property not
their own and adroitly eluding the penal
ties of the law.
Recently, it seems they forged the name
of Mr.. Ralph Osborn, who resides in Blen-
dontownship, near Westerville, to two bank
checks-one for $500, and the other for
$4,000. They went to Kenton, in Hardin
county, pretending to be stock-buyers, and,
on the 26th of April, drew from the bank in
that place some $l,7OO or $4,000 on their
forged drafts.
From Kenton, the pair proceeded to Buff
falo. Newcombe sent some 5000 or $500
home to his wife. They made some pur-
chasesin Buffalo, and then passed over into
Canada.
Various circumstances leading to sus-
picion of where the forgers were, Detec-
tive II. Parry, of this city, undertook to
"work up the case" His efforts were
crowned with success. We have not bee n
able to obtain from him personally full
and accurate account of his proceedings;
but from what we have heard, he managed
the affair with skill, and carried out his
schemes for the detection and arrest of the
iugitives with prudence and promptitude.
Accompanied by the Cashier of the Ken
ton bank, Detective Parry went to Niagara
Falls and crossed the suspension bridge into
Canada. Soon after crossing, they came
upon Newcomb who had assumed an alias
and called himself william Wiley. He was
arrested, and is now in Jail In Canada,
awaiting a requisition from the Secretary
of State at Washington on the Governor Of
Canada, by whom he will be, on receipt Of
the requisition, surrendered to the Ohio au-
thorities.
Benton, the accomplice of Newcomb, was
traced to Florence, in Canada. Detective
Parry SO managed his card as to get this
fellow across the suspension bridge to the
American side and brought him to thi:
city. On monday morning last, he started
for Kenton with his prisoner, where the
latter will be dealt with according to law.
We understand that the greater part oi
the money drawn on the forged checks, has
been recovered. r 4

We call the attention of the citizens OF

prietor of the Ohio House," Reynoldsburg
Mr.. Davis is well known in this community,
and his old friends will be sure to call upon
him when passing through the thriving
village of Reynoldsburg.
understand that reports have been cir
culated in that locality, derogatory to the
character OF Mr.. Davis. We only say, that
so far as our knowledge of the gentleman
is concerned, he sustains reputation which
many of his traducers might be proud of,
In short, Ed. Davis is and always has been,
so far as we know, straightforward, up
right and honest man.

AddItion to the County Infirmary.

Sealed proposals to be received at the
County Auditors Office until the 10th inst,
are advertised in this paper by the County
Commissioners, for building north wing
similar to the south wing, to the County In
firmary. The following are the general di-
mensions of the new wing: It's to be thirty
one feet and nine inches by eighty-two
feet and five inches, and two stories high
above the basement. The first story is to
be ten feet, and the second, nine.feet and six
inches in the clear. Plans and speciilca-
tions of thenew building can be seen at the
Auditors office.

The nrnhan CifH.

The city of Columbus with her eighteen
Fathers, is worse off than was Josephine,
the Daughter of the Regiment, with her
eight hundred. The latter could give con-
sent; but the former like the celebrated
animal, whose inclination was in exact
equilibrium between two punches of hay,
can neither express consent to, nor dissent
from anything. In such fix, what is the
poor city, which is really as badly of as
though it had no father at all, to do? Is
there no court or authority empowered to
appoint guardian for the fatherless city?

Bounty for veteran volunteers.

The Legislature OF OHIO, on the 9th of
April, 1866, passed an act " to amend an act
to provide bounty for veteran volunteers" i"
passed April l3, 1865. The first section of
the amendatory act is as follows:
Section L. That the commissioners of the
several counties, the trustees of the several
townships, and city councils of the several
cities of this State. are hereby authorized
and required to issue to each re-enlisted
veteran volunteer, who has been heretofore
credited upon the quota of such county,
township, or city, or any ward of such city,
under any requisiton of the President of
the United States tor volunteers, during the
late rebellion, and who have not received
any local bounty upon said re-enlistment,
a bond for the sum of one hundred dollars,
bearing six per cent. interest, redeemable
at the pleasure of such trustees or city
councils, one year after the date thereof.

continue at the Neil House this day, from
8 to 4 o'clock-room 1870. Anything more
simple, painless and complete would be inn
possible to conceive. A chemical prepara-

and making the removal absolutely pain

BOARD OF HEALTH.

@ MONDAY EVENING, May z.
The Board of Health metpursuant to ad-
journment. Present-Messrs. Gay, Field,
Dalton, Pollard, President Thompson,
Coulter, st. Clair, FELTON,, Boyle and IRE
witt. Absent-Dr. Mailman.
The report of Thomas Walker, Inspector
of the First District, was submitted. 1t
states that the Inspector had succeeded in
abatng the nuisance at Graham's row in
Neil's addition. There has been great COM
plant by the citizens of the offensive smell
arising from the drops over the sewers.
The Inspector has had his cartman put
lime in them, and thinks it would be well
to do this often through the summer.
The Inspector had tried to get the num-
Der of interments in the different cemete-
res from Monday, April 30, to noon of
Monday, May 7. At Green Lawn Cemete-
ry, there have been but three interments.
One of these was of remains brought from
a distance; the other two were infants. At
St. Patrick's, there have been no interments.
The Inspector has not been able to see the
Inspectors of the other graveyards. BL}
The Inspector of the Second District, w.
II. Peckham, submitted his report. He
states, among other things, that he had Wis
tied the slaughtering houses and found all
of them had cleaned their yards and lined
them well. He also gives good report of
other establishments, and thinks he can get
along without forcing the people.
Nelson Foos was elected Inspector of the
First District, to take the place of Thomas
Walker, resigned.
After desultory discussion on several
topics, the Board adjourned.
