time he occupied similar position on the
Sandusky Register. He had also been con-
nected with the Lima Gazette as publisher,
which paper is now published by his
brother. In all his relations he had gained
high reputation for industry, intelligence
and efficiency, and the terrible and sudde"
death which he has met will be mourned
by all who knew him.

The Republican Party a Negro
Party South.

The fact that the Republican party In the
South is nothing but a Negro party, is be-
coming the reverse of pleasant for Repub-
ginning to call it "falsehood." The fact
exists nevertheless, repugnant as it is be-
coming to the general sense. The Alabama
Convention, which is now in session, which
was elected by Negro votes chiefly, few
days ago adopted the following oath con-
stituting man voter, as part of the New
Constitution:
81 do solemnly swear that will support
and maintain the Constitution and laws of
of the United States and of Alabama; that
l am not excluded from registering by any
of the provisions of this Constitution; that
| will never countenance or aid in the Sc
cession of this State from the United States;
that accept the ciuH and political
deprive any person or persons, on account OF
race or color or previous condition, Of any
political or civil rights, privilege or immu-
nifty enjoyed by any other class of men;
and, furthermore, that will not, in any
way, injure or countenance in others, any
attempt to injure any person or persons,
on account of past and present support of
the Government of the United States, the
laws of the United States, or the principle
of the civil and political equality of all
men, or ofaffiliation with any political par
ty."
The vote by which it was adopted was
yeas 81; nays 25. A Republican from
Ohio who is opposed to Negro Suffrage
under this oath could not become q voter
in Alabama.

Don't Like Impeachment.

The Cincinnati Commercial, in its role OF
Conservative Republican, shudderingly
looks upon the attempt of the Radicals in
Congress to commit the Republican party
in favor of the Impeachment of the Presi-
dent, and cries out:
''We are likely to have enough combus-
tible material thrown into the pending
Presidential campaign without the addi-
tion of this fire. brand. 1t will add fury to
the strife, and test our capacity as people
for self-restraint and government, as it has
never been tried" -
These mad men, who are intent upon
adding "fury" to the Presidential ''strife,"
through their Impeachment scheme, where
by tour capacity as a people for self-re-
straint and government" will be tried ''as
it has never been tried, the Commercial gave
potential aid in sending them into Congress.
1t would not hear to it that Democrat or
friend of President JOHNSON should be
elected. And tomorrow, should there be
an election for congressman, if the Radicals
| should put these Destructives in nomina-
ton, the Commercial would support them
in preference to Democrat or friend of
President JOHNSON. That's its style.

Horrible Accident.

One of the most fearful accidents that has
occurred in this city tor long time, took
place in this office, about twelve o'clock
this morning, resulting in the death OF Mr..
H. G. Parmenter the foreman of the Blade
newsroom. The circumstances of the case
are as follows:
The forms for the twelve o'clock edition
supplying the towns on the Wabash road
had Just been made up, when the accident
occurred. These forms are conveyed from
the newsroom in the fourth story to the
pressroom in the basement, in large dunn
my raised and lowered by means of rope
connected to the box or dummy by large
iron hook and ring. Mr.. Parmenter, with
the ssistaance of Mr.. Crossman, mpositor
in the newsroom was placing the forms in
the box. One of the torms had been plac-
I'd in the box and the other was being lifted
in when Mr.. Parmenter as was his usual
custom, placed one loot in the box, while
he leaned forward to adjust the position of
the forms for their downward passage
Just as he did so the box fell, carry ing him
with it for the entire distance of five sto-
ries. precipitating him to the floor of the
press room where he lay in an insensible
state.
He was at once taken up and placed upon
temporary bed which had been standing
there for some time. Surgical aid was at
once summoned, but nothing could be done
cluded that the blow from which he receiv-
ed the fatal injury must have been received
before he commenced to fall. 1t was sup
posed that the heavy crossbar to which are
attached the hook and ring by which the
box is suspended struck him on the back
Of the neck just where the spinal cord en-
ters the brain, producing a conclusion
which destroyed consciousness. Another
blow from similar cause, was sustained
on the back of the head, which may have
produced the fatal conclusion. The case
was hopeless one. Nothing could be
done but to stand and watch the life ebbing
away. Slowly and by degrees it faded, and
in about three quarters of an hour from
the time when the accident occurred, the
last spark of life had expired. We have
reason to hope that the first blow Destroy
ed all consciousness. IT it was so, it was
most mercitul. The indications are that
he was not conscious after he was first
reached while lying on the ground.
Mr.. Parmenter was about thirty-five
pears of age. He leaves a wife and two
children-a boy and girl-on whom this ir-
reparable loss will inflict a most severe
and weighty blow. The most profound
sympathy of all will be with them in their

SPECIAL NOTICES.
AMERICAN
WALTHAM
w A T G III e S i.

The true vS4ue Of Mach inery applied to WI Watch-
making is not that by its Watches are made
rapidly, but that they are made correctly. Very
fe y people know why W altham Watch should be
superior to any other. Iu the first place. at Walt
ham the Wstch is regarded as only q machine to
be constructed like any other achine on mechau-
ica principles. If the Watches are good it is be-
cause the machinery is good. OF course there
must be no defect in the principle or plan of the
movement-no mistake in the sizes or shapes of
the pieces of which it is composed-nothing want
ing in their properties. and in their posi-
tions. These points once thoroughly settled, j
rests wholly with the machinery. constructed with
infinite diversity Of form and function expressly
for the purpose to produce the finished pieces. By
means of multiplying guages and microscopes tests
and inspection for the detection of we in the cut
ting TOOLS and for faults and flaws in steel or stone
are made to accompany the work in every stage
from beginning to end. As q necessary result, the
Watch goes together perfect machine. Every
part is found to fit properly in its place. Every
pin may be pushed till it pinches. and every screw
turned home. Instead of q sluggish and feeble ac-
tion the bal ance. even under the pressure of the
highest handspring. vibrates with wide an | free
motion. and the beat has the clear ringing sound
always characteristic of the Watham Watch. The
machine is a tim mekeeper from the start.
This system of Matchmaking is unknown in for
oIsn COUNTRIES anu Is entlreiy original with the
Walthau Company. The Company claim that by
it they produce Watches that cannot be equslled
forevery quality which makes Watch valuable.
Simple in plan and correct in principle. the
ment is not only beautifully finished, substantial,
accurate and cheap, but is unifor in the minutest
details not easily damaged, and when repaired al
ways as good as new. There are different grades
OF finish in the different varieti of atches made
by the Waltham Company. as there are different
sizes and shapes to suit all tastes and means; but
every Watch that bears the genuine trademark of
"WALTHAM" is guaranteed to be a good one and
nobody need be afraid to buy it.
