AMONG the last public acts of Gen
eral Halpine, Or ''Private Miles o.
Reilly" was to put on record the fol-
lowing in relation to Governor Seymour
and General Blair. General Halpine
said, in the Citizen:
On the whole muster-rOll of the army
no name shone more cOnspicuously for
personal gallantry than that of Frank
Blair, few officers have been more des-
perately wounded, and no officer has
been more gloriously cOnspicous for
never saying Come" to his men, but
"Follow me-" AS for the loyalty of
Horatio Seymour, the fact that in every
national exigency he hurried forward
more troops to the scene of action,
whether it was Washington or Gettys-
burg, than any other Governor, togeth
er with the warm letters of thanks for
his loyalty and devotion from the late
President Lincoln, which have already
appeared, must be sufficient answer.
Knowing Seymour we'll, and having
had opportunities to know him thor
oughly, officially and peronally, during
the war, we reluctantly but firmly ap-
ply to whomsoever shall question his
action and practical loyalty, the fa-
nous words of that great Radical
Chief who answers every charge which
he deems unfounded by the striking
phrase of the true Saxon dialect: "You
lie, you villain, you lie;' and-what
the great Radical philosopher does Rot
dove are willing to be held response
Bile for these words.

RIPE FRUIT.-While we cannot too
strongly caution our citizens against
the use of unripe fruits, on the other
hand we cannot too strongly urge q free
indulgence in well ripened ones at
this season. A distinguished physi-
clan states that, in an extensive prac-
tice, running through long series of
years, he had always found the occa-
sions of his services in a family redu-
ced in proportion as they came into
the daily use of good ripe fruits, from
Strawberries onward. Some of the most
distinguished pomologist5 of the coun-
try bear unqualified testimony in be-
half of well ripened fruits.

HOOFLANp,s GERMAN TONIC

is a combination of all the ingredients Of the Bit
ters with PURE Santa Cruz Rum, Grange etc. 1t
is used for the same diseases the Bitters In case
where some pure alcoholic stimulus is required
You will bear in mind that these remedies are en-
tirely different from any others advertised for the
cure Of the diseases named, these being scientific
preparations of medicinal extracts, while the 9TH
TONIC is decidedly one of the most pleasant and
agreeable remedies ever offered to the public. Its
taste is exquisite Its pleasure to take 1T, while
its life giving, exblarating, and medicinal quail
ties have caused it to be known as the greatest OF
all tOnics.

DOES THE LAB0RENG MAN PAY ANY
TAXES.

While the producing industries of the
country are unjustly taxed, and the al
most intolerable burdens of the war rest
upon those who fought the battles and
made the sacrifices, those who titled
land to produce supplies, and those
who labored in the workshops, the
organs of the Radicals are asserting
that the bondholders are the men who
pay all our revenue. The organ of the
Radicals in Lorain county, replying to
an article which recently appeared in
the Cleveland Ptdiadedier, sneeringly
says that mot one laboring man in
every hundred pays a penny of taxes
to the government directly" True,
the laboring man does not pay his tax
es directly to the government, but ev-
cry man of sense knows that the con-
sumner pays the tax upon every article
manufactured by capital. A practical
working man, few days ago, being in
our office, handed Us the following,
which in itself is a volume of argu-
ment to show that the poor man does
pay taxes:
Radical legislation requires the con-
sumner to pay all taxes. Ii taxes
The hat on your head.
The boots on your feet.
The clothes on your person.
The food you eat.
The tea and coffee you drink.
The pot it is cooked in.
The cup you drink it out Of.
The implements on your farm.
The tools you work with.
The paper you write on.
The pen and ink you use.
The paper and books you read.
The furniture in your house.
The gas or oil you burn.
The coal you consume.
The stove you burn it in.
The match you light it with.
The medicine you take.
The tobacco you smoke.
The pipe you smoke it in.
The dishes on your table.
All you eat off them.
The laboring man of the country,
who owns little house aud lot, which
he has earned by toiling from early
morning to night, pays State tax, coun-
ty tax, school tax, road tax upon it;
while his next door neighbor who is a
bondholder, owning fifty thousand
dollars in bonds, pays no taxes what
ever, draws interest in gold, and laughs
at his unfortunate neighbor, who has
his money in little home! If the
masses of Iaboring men desire the equal
taxation of every species of property
according to its real value-govern-
ment bonds and other securities in
cluded-if they want one currency for
the people, the laborer and the office
holder, the pensioner and the soldier,
the producer and the bondhOlder,
they will not vote the Radical ticket,
but Will vote for that of the Democra-
/

DastRrdIY Outrage.


On the breaking out Of the war a
Union man, named John Wells, Iiv-
ing in Johnson county, KY, was, on
account of his Unionism, driven from
his home by the rebels. Before he
was out of sight of his house, they
burned it down, turning his family
out of doors.
He remained among the mountains
Of the Big Sandy until our troops Oc-
cuPied the valley, when he joined
them in the capacity of scout, and did
good service. During one Of their
visits outside the lines, the soldiers
.cOnfiscated the contents Of a store be-
longing to One Zephaniah Meeks. At
ter remaining some time with our ar
my, Mr.. Wells brought his family to
this side of the river, and bought a
small farm in Windsor township, and
afterwards added to it a small farm,
which he purchased from Mr.. Thorn
as Belts. Here he has been living
ever since.
After the war was over, Mr.. Meeks
followed him to this State, and insti
gated proceedings against him, both
civil and criminal. The case was
tried impartially in the Court Of Com
mon Pleas, and resulted in favor Of
Mr.. Wells. Pending this suit, Mr..
Wells went to Kentucky, for the pur-
pose Of getting some dispositions tax
en-, but the whole rebel neighbOFhOOd
raised in arms against him, and he
was compelled to fee through the
woods for his life.
It seems that Mr.. Meeks, not salts
fed with the decision of our Court,
has applied to Governor Stevenson
and got a requisitiOn on the Governor
Of Ohio, who ordered the sheriff of
this county to deliver Mr.. Wells to
the agent of Kentucky. The sheriff,
on Monday, arrested Mr.. Wells and
delivered him over to the Kentucky
agent, who happened to be no other
than Meeks himself, and we presume
by this time he is safely in the hands
Of a set Of men who will be satisfied
with nothing less than his life.
Mr.. Wells, since his residence here,
has been a quiet, inoffensive citizen,
and good neighbOr; but this outrage
has been committed on him, simply
because he was a loyal man. 1t is
surprising that Gov. Hayes has issued
this order, on the representation Of
one side of the question, and that, too,
perhaps from the counsel of Mr..
Meeks. A dispatch was prepared,
asking Gov. Hayes to delay in the
matter, until the other side of the
question could be made known, but
the wires being down, did not reach
him.
The above is a brief history of the
matter, as we get it from persons
knowing the facts.
