NARROW ESCAPE. - AS Mrs. Betsey
King, wife Of Lemuel King Of Sunder-
land, was sitting near a window OF her
kitchen one day recently, she noticed
that one of her shoe strings was united
and stopped over to tie it, and at that
instant q rifle ball passed through the
window and also through the stoyepipe,
lodging in the wall Of the room. Had
Mrs. King been sitting in an upright
position the ball would have passed
through her head Whether the shot
was the result of an accidental discharge
Of a gun, or deliberate attempt upon
the life Of Mrs. K. remains mystery.

An Honest Radical.

S.P. CHASE, who but few years ago
was resident of Columbus, and was not
worth $4,000, has been at Washington q
few years in office on salary per year in
sufficient to sustain him in the style he
lived, and although he has been engaged
in no legitimate business outside OF his
offices, has amassed the handsome little
fortune of 100000.
Upon the disclosure of which, some of
the Radicals are kicking up rumpus.
Not because they censure CHASE tor what
he has done, but because he got more than
his share. THURLow WEED made some
very disagreeable disclosures as to how
CHASE got his little fortune, and thereupon
the Neu York Herald comes to CHAsE's res
cue in the following style:
'"Rumor has it that Chief Justice Chase
within few years has increased his for
tune from $4,000 to 100000; whereupon
the venerable Thurlow Weed betrays some
curiosity touching these suggestive statis-
tics. But if the old Lobby King were to
give us the clear profits of his free wool
statistics, his statistics of that ambassa-
dorial trip to Europe, his steamboat STA
tistics, his canal and railroad lobby statis-
tics, and, above all, his whisky tax statis
ties, it would be easy to show how Mr..
Chase might have realized 100000 or ST.
100000 in the last seven years on the same
principles OF turning an honest penny"
Radicals of Ohio, think of it. 100000
of your money gone to public servant,
whilst you have to labor to refund it to the
Treasury.
But let us not comment. Let them tell.
We will soon be wiser if not better than
we have been. The HerGld's theory of ex-
cusing CHASE is to prove WEED purloined
more than CHASE. A new plank in the
Radical platform.

The Feeding Upon the Carcass
Sickens the Saints.

From time to time we have been produc-
ing the confessions of such Radicals as still
appear desirous of diverting that party
from its present course of inevitable ruin.
Some of these confessions are extorted by
the unmistakable signs of the decomposi-
ton of the party, whilst others are prompt
ed by commendable desire to rescue the
country from impending evil. The follow
ing extract, from the Radical Neso York
Times, is worthy of note:
"We cannot share the tone of exultation
in which many OF our contemporaries dis
cuss the result of the Tennessee election
In its overwhelming vote for Brownlow
and his candidates they profess to have
discovered signs of thorough recoustruc-
ton. And in the unanimity OF the ne
groes they see an assurance of the manner
in which the newly enfranchised race
throughout the South will hereafter exert
their power.
ssIf the mission of the Republican party
were to invest the future of the South with
danger and difficulty, this rejoicing would
be Ineligible and just. If the aim were
to build up black. party in the Southern
States as the only proper ally of the North
ern Republicans-to ALLEVIATE the great ma
jority of resident whites and force them
into a position of permanent hostility
nothing could be more satisfactory than
the verdict of Tennessee"
Also the following from the Philadelphia
Press (Radical)
s.It is believed that the collection of the
United States revenue is costly beyond all
example. Not alone is this caused by the
employment of an immense number OF
highly paid officials, whose name is Legion,
but the losses which fall upon the public
treasury through their neglect, incapacity,
or corruption"
The Radicals are upon the stool of re-
pentance. The corruption of their officials
has become so glaring and the ruin of their
policy so apparent, that they can no longer
secrete that which will surely condemn
them. Oh, loyalty, what crimes are hid
beneath the ample folds of thy garments

amounted to abont S324,OO0, mostly in
silver coin. The fleet was not heavily
armed, and being attacked by piratical
junks, the Anamite soldiers were COM
PEELED to surrender. Some jumped over
board and were drowned: others were
killed; two wounded officers were be-
headed, and the survivors were taken to
Macao April 2, where they were placed in
barracoons. Here they were piled with
offers to emigrate as coolie slaves to Cuba,
to take the place of the worn cut negro
slaves. Sixteen who refused were returned
on board the junks, and reduced by starva-
ton until they consented to sign away
their liberties. Information of these facts
reached the commander OF a French war
vessel through French missionaries, and
an investigation commenced which result
ed in the release of the Anamites, but not
until a considerable number had been
shipped on board of Spanish steamer
loading for Havana. This is a part of the
system of coolie apprenticeship, and it
may be that some of these unfortunate
Anamites were among the coolies that were
subsequently taken to New Orleans or
shipped to New England. The coolie traf-
fic and the slave trade equally deserve con-
demnation.

In place of coarse, rustic, flushed face. she had
soft ruby complexion of almost marble smoothness,
and instesd of twentythree she really appeared but

Democratfc Nomfnations.

The Democracy of Putnam and Henry
county. in Representative Convention as
sembled on Thursday, nominated II. j.
BoEHMER, of Putnam, as the candidate for
the Legislature, as the successor of Mr.
in the last Legislature, who declined a re-
election. Mr.. BoEHMER has twice been
elected to the House, and no District had
a more faithful Representative.
Our friend KINDER, of the Putnam Coun-
ty Sentinel, in speaking of the nominee of
the Convention, says:
"Mr. 81. j. BoEHMER, the nominee of the
Convention, is gentleman well and IA
vorably known not only In this District but
throughout the State. He is an unf1inch-
ing Democrat, a man OF fine administra-
tive ability, and representative man of
that class of gallant German Democrats
who have always remained steadfast and
true to the cause of Democracy. AS
public man he is well known, having serv-
ed with distinction in the Legislature in
the years 1878 and 1854. We pre-
dict that Mr.. BoEHMER will look well to
and do honor to himself and the party that
elects him.
At the close of the Convention, Mr.. B.
was called for and addressed the people in
handsome little speech, his remarks be-
ing received with the greatest satisfaction.
Judge Haag, of Napoleon, was also called
for, and responded in a speech of some
length, in which he handled the questions
at issue in an able and logical manner.
The speech was excellent and was received
with rounds of applause.
JERIAH SwEETLAND, of Union township,
on Saturday last, was made the nominee
of the Democracy of Madison county for
Representative. He is the right man, and
when elected, as assuredly he will be, in
the halls of legislation he will be in the
right place. Mr.. SwEETLAND is peculiarly
well fitted for the position. An old citizen
of the county, beloved and respected by
all who knew him, no one better qualified
to look after the interests of his constit-
uents could have been selected. 1t is an
admirable nomination, and was made by
acclamation. The platform of principles
embodied in the proceedings of the Con-
vention, published in another colupln, will
| command attention.

Jones',

The soliloquizing Radical, thinks it is
about as reasonable to think the Negroes
will vote and not desire office as it would
be for hungry horse to plow large grow
ing corn without desire to take an occa-
sional bite. Negro officeholders would
have about the same effect upon the coun-
try that the horse would have upon the

Negro and White children In the
Schools.

Governor MORTON, United States Sena-
tor from Indiana, in his speech on laying
the cornerstone of the Normal Institute,
said that the harmony of the country
would not be restored until Negro children
were educated in the common schools with
the White children.
First the country could not be restored
until slavery was abolished. This was
done. Then the United States Senate de-
clared it could not be done until Negroes
had votes; then comes the mixing of
Whites and Blacks in the schools, and then,
no doubt, the miscegenation of the races,
and then mulatto Government. and then
the United States will be a second Mexico.

How CooIie Slaves are Procured.

How CoOIle Slaves are Procured.
The large trade in Coolies at Havana
the shipping of them in large numbers to
New Orleans, and the recent statement
from Radical sheet that they are to be
transported in large numbers to New Eng
land to take the place of white laborers in
the factories Of that region, have already
been referred to in our columns. Recent
intelligence from China shows the pro-
cesses resorted to to procure the Coolies
for this nefarious trade. One instance is
thus given: 1t is stated that some time in
February last fleet of five junks, manned
by crew of 100 Anamite soldiers, were
despatched by the Governor of the prov
ince OF Nha-thang, in Cochin China, loaded
with the annual tribute of that province to
