A HEAVY BURGLARY.-The boarding.
houseof Mrs. Collins, corner of Neil House
alley and Front street, was entered on Sat-
urday morning, between two and three
O'Clock, by two burglars, who climbed in
through a front window. After making a
thorough search of the clothing of the
boarders, they got away with a pocketbook
containing fifty cents. They knew. it is
thought, that one of the men boarding in
the house had considerable sum of money
with him, and were after it. AS luck would
have il, he was called suddenly away to sit
up with sick friend, and so fooled the en-
.erpfising thieves out of their booty. After
they had come out of the house, apparently
dissatisfied with the result of the specula-
tion, they sat down on a neighboring door,
step, and, taking off their shoes, prepared
for second search. They were watched
by woman in the next house, who gave
the alarm and frightened them off.

The RATIFICATION MEETING AT GROVE
poRr.--A large and most enthusiastic
crowd of Democrats gathered on Saturday
evening in Groveport, to ratify the nomina-
tions of the New York Convention. '.The
rockets red glare'' and the sparkle and dis
charge of Roman candles called the people
together. A telling speech was made by
E. B. Eshelman, of the STATESMAN, who, in
half hours argument, charged home on
the Radicals, their broken promises and
their corruption. He was followed by Col
Baber in mastery speech. He reviewed
the reconstruction acts of Congress, show
ed up their hidden meaning and intent; re-
ferred to the financial policy of the Radi-
Gals, and contrasted it with the polity Of
the Democrats. showing eonclusively that
there is no hope for the country except in
a change of the administration. These
speeches produced marked effect. We were
there ourself, but modesty forbids US to
state how good speech we did make. It
was bully though-at least we thought so.
The meeting was telling one and shows
that the Democracy of that neck of woods
are wide awake. We will have good re-
port from them the coming fall.
