Bishop SOuIe.

The Christian Advocate for last week
has an interesting account of n recent
visit to Bishop Soule. at his residence,
seven miles east of Nashville:
"On Wednesday last the Bishop was
eighty-fve years of ago, having been
born in the State of Massachusetts,, in
the District, now the State, of Maine,
August l, 1871. The aged minister of
the Gospel received his visitors with
his accustomed courtesy and cordially,
seeming to be much pleased that his
birthday had been remembered, He is
very feeble, but cheerful and kind and
communicative, a fine specimen of
narrative old age" without the boring
garrulity which so Frequently charac-
t%erizes second childhood. His memory
of things long since passed is surpris-
ingly accurate. In the course of the
conversation he quoted, ad punctum,
long passages from Addison's Coto and
Pope's Homer, ever a great favorite
with him. He called up many remin-
iscences of his early ministry, and
spoke Of his old cotemporaries, who
have all passed off the stage of action,
leaving him, AS it were, alone, the oldest
Methodist minister in the world"
The Conservative. (M'connelsville, Ohio) 1866-1871, 1866-09-07
rallied to Como to Time.

There has been for some time past n
strife between tho married and single
members of the Muskingum Base Ball
Club, as to which We're the best players
and having played two match games
heretofore, (he married men being
triumphant in the first, and the single
mehiih the second,) they had agreed to
playitho third game, for the champion
ship on Wednesday, at three o'clock
p, N. The married men were on the
ground promptly, and at the appointed
hour time was called, and the young
men failed to respond to the call, but,
according to the rules of the game,
they were allowed fifteen minutes
grace. When the fifteen minutes had
expired, the young NOR not yet ''put-
ting in an appearance the Umpire,
+. w. Wood, Esq, threw up the
SPONGE declaring the married men
the winners. Which decision makes
the married men victorious in two
games, and, therefore, the champion
ship justly belongs to thcm.

Clrgar Lighted I'm London by a
Spark from Newfoundland.

L'Evenment, Of Paris, tells a good
story Of an English %nobleman, in con
nectionNyith the Atlantic Ocean Tele-
graph, Upon the news Of the success
full laying Of the cable becoming known
in London, so the story runs, n Of
tho most prominent members Of the
House of Lords drove up to the central
Office ofthe telegraph, and wanted to
send a message TO Newfoundland. He
was politely informed that the line was
not open for business. His lordship,
nothing daunted, said that he had a
large number ofshares in tho company,
and put down two hundred guineas.
Upon.this he was promised that an ef-
fort would be made to seud his mes
sage through. What he sent was as
follows:
"To the Telegraph Operator at
Hearts Content: Send on the strong
est electric spark your machines are
capable of, but give n minutes notice
beforehand"
In due time, his lordshIp waiting
patiently some twelve hours, the spark
came, and my lord lit his cigar with a
cigar-lighter, thus electrically ignited
from Newfoundland, and walked off
fully satisfied.

General Grant Stands with the

General Grant is in favor of the i'm
mediate restoration of the Union. He
opposes the radicals. He fought "the
rebels in the South, we quote from
President Johnson's New York speech,
and, said-the President further, "thank
God he is noe ciUily in the FIELD on THE
oTHER SIDE" Having whipped them"
the rebels, "at one end Of the line"
he is now "for whipping them at the
other end of the line.
If our radical friends deserved any
thing but the kicks they arc now re-
ceiving we should pity them. Grant,

Union now in the field fighting by the
President and his Cabinet in the con-

The conservative host is now q mighty
one, and every day gives it increased
strength. The locomotive labelled tho
Union and the Constitution, to borrow
a smile from the President, isupon the
track, and woe be to him who throws
himself in the way of its onward pro-
gress. Be active, friends, be vigilant,
be firm, united and determined, and
the grandest victory ever achieved in
the annals Of political warfare will

Permission Of the Negro Re-
quired.

Tho New York Independent, leading
Radical organ, and which the New
York Tribune says is "the most widely
circulated and generally read religious
political journal in America" in its is
sue of this week, serves the following
notice on the American people:
No man shall be the neat President oil
the United States WHO DOES NOT ASK
PERMISSION OF THE NEGRO.
Wo suppose asking PERMISSION Of
the white man is played out. The In
dependent makes the above proclama-
ton because of its conviction, that the
Radicals will succeed at the approach
ing Congressional elections. Was it
not strong in that conviction, it would
hardly have ventured ~toR1ser',e such q
notice az that on the white people OF
tie United States. But the elections
are not over, and there is many a slip

Young Lady Shot by her would
be LOver.

We learn says the Lancaster Ohio
Eagle of Thursday, thata most distress
sing affair resulting in the immediate
death of Miss Barbara V. ShaefFer.
aged seventeen years, occurred at tho
residence of Mr.. Nef, in Clearcreek
Township, this county, on Sunday
afternoon last. The facts connected
with this most extraordinary homicide
as related TO us, are those:
Miss Shaeffer had returued from
Sabbath School, in the neighborhood,
with some of her friends, to the house
of Mr.. Neff, where they were expected
to take dinner. Mr.. Milton belong
and another young man, both of the
neighborhood, and who il appears were
rivals for the society of Miss Shaeffer,
either by invitations or of their own
notion, also went to Mr.. NefFs arriv-
ing there about the same time of the
young ladies spoken of. They had
been there but a short time when De-
long took down a rife gun which was
hanging somewhere about the house
saying he would go and kill some
squirles, at the same time he was told
by some one to be careful that the gun
was loaded and to satisfy himself Of
that fact, he took the rod and measure
ed the depth of the barrel, and found
it to be loaded. Delong then stepped
out into the yard and a few words pas
sed between him and Miss Sheaffer
who was standing in the door, but nc
one knew what the words wero; as nc
harm was suspected, but little attention
was paid to Belongs movements
Suddenly the sharp crack of the rifle
and the death shrek of Miss Shaeffcl
startled the whole company. Delong
was seen to take deliberate aim. The
unfortunate young lady fell and expir.
ed in about half an hour, the ball hav-
ing entered the forehead and passed
out at the back part fthe head.
belong then, apparently not the
least excited at what had happened,
deliberately replaced tho gun where
he had taken it from, saying in an in
different manner that the shot was
fired accidentally. He was at once ar
rested, and is now confined in the Jail
Of the county, where he awaits a full
investigation Of his singular conduct.

The Reception of the President
In RhiIndelnhin.

The attempt Of the Republican leaders in
Philadelphia, working in the Corn Exchange
and in the City Council 10 defeat a public re-
cepsion of the President in that city, aroused
the indignation Of the masses. The Piela.

paper, thus speaks Of The way the President
was received, dispite this example Of dirty
pOrtisahsbip. It says:
g;t requires no editorial comment 10 rein

onslrntion. AS on impromptu popular
