the envelope burned off, and some bank
bills were scorched. An examination of
the safe showed that it was made Of two
plates of heavy sheet iron, between which
was a heavy planking. On removing
the outer shell this planknig was found
a mass of live Goals. One corner of the
safe was about fifteen inches from coal
stove, and the fire must have been occa-
stoned by the long continued heating
from the stove, changinging the wood
work of the safe to finder.

Her condition was early discovered, and

The Chicago Tribune says that Mr..
Pendleton claims to be the author of two
theories. THAT the public debt may be
repudiated by its forced conversion into
irredeemable stump-tail currency; and
that slavery, as it existed prior to the
war, has never been abolished, but the
constitutional right of the owner to his
slave property yet remains, and is indie
structible." The democracy of the
Northwest propose to enter the campaign
upon these two issues.
The Ohio House of Representatives

80 to 81, the resolution Withdrawing the
assent of Ohio to the proposed fourteenth
article of the constitution of the United
States.
Gen. Sickles and Charles A. Folger

The democratic Legislature of Ohio
have just repealed the assent of that
State ratifying the pending fourteenth
amendment to the constitution, which in
effect provided that the people of the
South should be represented in Congress
ON the same basis as the North has al
ways been. This is the spirit of the dem
ocratic party precisely. If they had the
power they would undo the entire work
of the loyal people during the rebellion,
the restoration of slavery included.

INCREASE oF.PARALYsIs.-One of the
members of the French Academy of
Medicine, in very elaborate paper,
drawn up with great care, asserts that
statistics show that in exact proportion
with the increased consumption of to-
bacco is the increase of diseases in the
nervous centres (insanity, general paral-
ysis, paraplegia) and certain cancerous
affections" 1t may be said in reply, that
the Turks, Greeks and Hungarians are
inveterate smokers, and yet are little af-
fected by these nervous diseases. But
M. Jolly accounts for their exemption by
the fact that the tobacco used by them is
OF much milder form, containing slight
proportions of nicotine, and sometimes
none at all. Excessive indulgence, there
fore does no harm in this direction; and
no case of general or progressive paraly-
sis has been discovered in the east, where
this mild tobacco is in use. M. Moscan
says - lhe cause Is PLAIN enough, and
evidently ply Biological. In all the re-
gions of the Leyant they do not intoxi-
cate themselves with nicotine or alcohol:
but saturate themselves with opium and
perfumes, sleeping away their time in
torpor, Incidence and sensuality. They
narcotic, but do not nicotize themselves,
and if opium, as has been said, is the
poison of the intellect of the East, to-
bacco may one day in the West prove
the poison of life itself. 1t is the nico-
tine, in the stronger tobacco used in Eng
land, France and the United States, which
prove so pernicious, and the French ply
slcians hold that paralysis is making rapid
advance under the abuse of alcohol and
tobacco."e

Mr.. RUSSELL STILES had used super
phosphate of lime on various crops with
good success. On grass ground, he sows
800 lbs. to the acre, and for corn or po-
tatoes puts table spoonful to a hill.
His land was moist heavy soil, subsoil
clay.
Mr.. JOEL DAVIS said the genuine SUI
perphosphate of lime as afertilizer was
second to nothing. He had never seen
it fail to show its effects on any crop or
quality of soil when applied. There was
counterfeit article of very little value,
purchasers should cautiously avoid it.

Considerable connection has been ere
ated in political circles at Washington,
by the Unexpectedly prompt and vigor-
Gus action of Gen. MEADE in removing
Governor jenkins and some other state
officers of Georgia, on the ground that
they were an impediment to reconstruc-
tion." Gen. Pope had just been remov-
ed as was generally understood for the
reason that he did not sufficiently tole-
rate rebels, and yet he YVES permitting
the governor and state treasurer to con-
tinue in their official positions. On his
removal the rebel elementwere very nat
urally everjoyed, expecting Gen. MEADE
would allow them to do about as they
chose, and such too, was mot only the ex-
pectation of the southern loyal element,
but also Of all parties at the north, when
10, on arriving at the field, Gen. MEADE
finds the samerebel spirit which he met
at Gettysburg, and he even deals with it
as ne did there by promptly removing
Gov. Jenkins and the State treasurer
who have recently been doing more for
the support of treason than they were
ever able to do IN the palmiest days of
the "confederacy." The gratifying sur
prise of the Union people throughout the
country at this action of Gen. Meade, is
only equalled by that of the democracy
and rebels who supposed they had got
ioughface who would act the farce of
HANCOCK in Louisiana and Texas.
