a NEW DEMOCRATIC LEADER The
Troy Times has received a copy Of stirring
address 10 the Conservatives of the United
States, taking the ground, that none Of the
acknowledged leaders Of the Democratic
party can hope successfully To compete with
General Grant in the race for the Presidency
IJ then cites several examples in our day in
which new and comparatively unknown men
have been suddenly brought forward aud
elected, % wit. Polk, Pierce, Taylor Lin
coin, and concludes by putting forward the
claims and merits Of Colonel Dan Rice, the
distinguished circus proprietor and ring
performer The Times adds
The idea Is not bad one, nor altogether
inconsistent with Democratic policy And
the change would be decided improvement
upon the present administration, for if we
are to have q clown in the President chair,
tirst-class one Is greatly 10 be preferred
We believe Colonel Rice would be found
very available He would give three circus
performances in every town in the Union, a
policy which would render him very dear to
the truly Democratic heart lie can tell a
nutty story with as good grace as G. Chauu-
cey Burr and generally has the advantage
of large numbers of women among his audi
tors, which the Rev. G. c. g. could never
secure. We have 20 right, perhaps, to
tender advice 10 the Democracy, but if we
belonged to the party, our FIRST choice would
be Colonel Dan Rice. The Democrats have
elected much worse Presidents we greatly
doubt whether they val ever give US a
better.

FAIR AND OYSTER SUPPER. -The en-

last evening, by the Ladies of the Epis-
eopal Church was excellent and we be-
lieve Melted handsome sum for the

rooms of the large house were nicely
warmed and lighted aud the large COM
pany that was present came fully up to
the spirit Of the occasion by being very
socIable, which of course made it pleas
ant. At intervals during Intervening the

with some good music. 1t was the first
time that they played in public and u
unanimous verdict Of splendid" was
announced by q critical audience. The
office of the hotel was devoted to the
exhibition and sale OF fancy articles. If
a person can judge of the worth of Lady
Clerks by the number of articles sold.
we know that they are decided success.
The fine dining hall of the hotel was used
for the supper room, the tables of which
we're loaded with eatables of great
variety and excellent quality. The en-
tertainment was decided success.

BURGLAR SHOT AT GREEN BAY.

We learn from our Green Bay exchang-
es that man was shot in the streets of
that city last week under the following
circumstances: Deputy Sheriff Langton
received a telegram from Marquette LIS
ordering him 10 arrest on the stage, one
VI. Nehill charged with burglary: When
the stage arrived the officer was on hand
arrested his man and proceeded mp Wash
ington street towards thG.iail, but on reach
ing the New York saloon the man refused
to go any further and the officer opened
the door Of the saloon and called for hclp
At this the chap broke from the officer
and ran down the street The officer fol-
lowed close and fired at his game, but did
not stop him; he then fired a second shot
when the man fired at him and turned
down Pine street toward the river When
about the middle of Pine street, between
the rear ends of the buildings occupied
by Mr. Stevens and by Mrs johnson. the
Sheriff, being on the west side of Wash
ington street, sent another shot after
him, which took effect in the back part
of his head, near the base of the brain,
which it entered. The man fell, and the
Sheriff arrived on the spot Immediately
after, when the fellow fired another shot
the ball passing through his 1.-THE Sheriff 81
vest, cutting his suspender on the left
shoulder, and passing out of his coat
collar, but without infiicting wound
The prisoner, now insensible, was taken
up to the Court House, and DR.. c. f.
Crane was summoned, who examined the
wound and pronounced it mortal. He
died at about / - O'Clock, nearly four
hours after the shot was fired. His
satchel was found to contain bunch of
skeleton keys, nippers. slung-shot, bot
tie of chloroform, and bottle of asafoe-
ida, and sewed into the collar Of his
coat were two fine saws for saving iron.
The slung shot found has some small
parcels of light, sandy hair adhering to
1t by CONCEALED blood or other substance;
=
probably the hair was from the last man
struck, possibly from the peddler robbed
near Ishpeming, Lake Superior
He was doubtless member of the gang
of burglars who have lately infested the
north peninsula of Michigan. The uni
versal opinion is that the Sheriff has done
good deed, and if he, or some other
officer, could shoot burglar every day
until they were all cleaned out they
would be confering blessing on the
public.
A public meeting of the citizens ex-
OF Grated Sheriff Langton from ali blame
in the matter, if it did not rejoice in the
accuracy of his aim.

SCHOOL DIFFICULTY Monday last
the Principal of the First District School
found it necessary to correct one of hi.
scholars. The boy resisted, and received
a pretty lively shaking up, as, it seems
to us, he merited from the fact that he
is spoken Of by those who have taught
schools where he has been in attendance,
as mischievous little shaver who makes
lots of fun but is sharp enough to escape
detection as a general thing. However.
the father Of the boy considered that the
teacher had been unnecessarily severe
and entered a complaint before Justice
of the Peace to that effect The case
Was postponed till Saturday

We find in an exchange the following
recipe for doing up shirt bosoms, and give
it to our lady readers. knowing that if
succe ssful we shall have the thanks OF
every miserable man who has been DOOM
ed to wear, and curse over, badly done up
shirts.
Take two ounces Of fine white gum ara
bic poy'der-put it into pitcher and pour
on point or more Of water, and then,
having covered it, let it stand all night
In the morning pour it carefully from the
dregs into clean bottle, cork it and keep
for use. A tablespoonful of gum water
stirred into n pint of starch made in the
usual manner will give to lawns, either
white or printed, look of newncss when
nothing else can restore them after they
have been washed.
