Another Democratic Judge in
LimbO--He gives Bail in Sc, 900

James A. Estill, Probate Judge of
Holmes county, Ohio, who has been
running up and down the land for the
past month, endeavoring to keep out of
the clutches of Uncle Sans minions,
was on Friday gobbled up at Wooster
Ohio, by Deputy United States Marshal
Daniel B. Funk, and brought to this
city.
Judge Estill is one Of those unfortu-
nate Democratic Judges, who, as charg-
ed by the grand jury, out of love to
party,let his zeal overstep his prudence,
and in the heat of the last political cam
paign placed himself in that predica-
ment that the grand jury saw fit to in
dict him for Issuing falsely made, forg-
ed. and couuterfeited naturalization
papers. Immediately after the finding
of the bill, eapias was placed in the
hands of the United States Marshal for
the arrest of the Judge. Captain Alb
bott, Deputy United States Marshal,
visited the Judges home at Millers-
burg, but no Judge could be found.--
Saturday, he quite unexpectedly turned
up at Wooster, and undoubtedly quite
unexpectedly to him, Mr.. Funk also
turned up. l
+ Judge Estill gave bail for appearance
at the next term of Court, in the sum of
five thousand dollars, and was dis.
charged.--Clecelond Herald.

Russian Comments upon the
Election of Grant.

The Moscow Gazette, of October q
November 81, has the following COM
ments upon the result of the Presiden-
tial election in the United States:
IF Europe presents spectacle not
altogether quieting, an event has hap
pened on the other side of the ocean
which will not be without good mean
ing, even for Europe. The brilliant
triumph OF the Republican over the
Democratic party in the United States,
and the election of General Grant as
President, is animportant event. What
is in America called the "Republican'
party is the national party, and has as
its basis the unity of the nation, and
has not drawn back from any sacrifice
to save the Union. Opposed to it is the
so-called Democratic" party, opposed
to unity, anti-national, in which the
rebellion ard treason which nearly ru-
ined the government have taken deep
root. The treacherous murder of Lin
coin almost tore from the Republican
or national party its victory. But the
troublous time approaches its end. The
strife between the Legislative and ex-
|ecusive powers which characterized the
administration of Mr.. johnson, who
leaned toward the Democrats, will now
cease; and with the induction of Gen.
Grant into the Presidency, the national
polity of the United States will take
new and hitherto unprecedented devel-
opment, both at home and abroad.

Make the Horses Work

Horses were designed as beasts of
buaden, to relieve mankind from
fatiguing drudgery. 1t does moi
hurt them to work hard, if they are
treated kindly. It is not the hard
drawing and ponderous loads that
wear out horses and make them
poor, baulky and worthless: Tut il
is the hard driving, the worry by
rough and inhuman drivers, thai
uses up more horse flesh, fat and
muscle than all the labor team per
forms. a+ 80: ,1., az-
Consider the ponderous loads thai
many teams are required to cart
every day, and several times day
and yet they appear to grow fattel
and stronger every year. They are
treated kindly. On the other hand
other horses, that do not preform
half the labor, soon grow poor, an6
give out, and the next we hear OF
them as, they died with the harness
on. Hard work does not kill them
but the worrying, fretting, and abuse
did the job.
Horses will do all the moving
and reaping on a large farm, thrash
the grain, pitch the hay, turn the
grsndstone, saw the wood and pre-
form almost all the heavy labor
that farmers have been accustomed
to do, and grow fat, if they are not
worried and jerked and kicked about
as if they were aliving ootbal.-V

Singular Railroad Casualty.

g Ne. j. E.. Van Steenburg, Cashier
of the Bank of Peekskill, n. Y. came
to his death on the 4th INST. by an
act Of imprudence which ought to
serve as warning to all who ride
on railroads. He left New York for
Fishl1ill at 5 o'clock the previous
afternoon, intending to disembark
at Fishkill Station. He secured a
seat in the last passenger car, and
before the train Preached Peekskill
fell asleep. After that place had
been passed, and when the train was
within two hundred, yards of the
draw bridge above, he suddenly
awoke, and being confused suppos
ed the train had just stopped al
Fishkill. Entertaining this lea he
be hurried to the front platform OF
the car and taking hold Of the rail
descended to the lower step and
jumped off, still holding on to the
rail, expecting to be compelled to
run little ways before letting go.
The train, however. was running
faster than he supposed, and the
moment he struck the ground, his
legs were thrown under the forward
wheels of the last car, and both were
crushed, the right one at the knee.
and the left just above the knee:
Not soul on the train knew of the
occurrence As already stated. he
died the next morning -Io1eao

Waking UP the "Nagur. ,,

An excellent joke is told of some
wags at the McIntrie House few
nights ago. We give it as we
heard it. A gentlemanrof the Me-
lisian persuasion, called late in the
evening to stay all night. Being
stranger, he was made the victim of
a practical joke. Cne of the wags
represented himself to be the. clerk,
and upon Pat saying thathe wanted
a room, and that he also wanted. to
be called for the 4 O'clock train in
the morning, he was gravely in
formed that the only possible chance.
to accommodate him was with a
bunge in a room occupied by the
porter. Pat didn't like the idea of
sleeping in the same room with
nagur, but one. of the conspirators
furnished the darkey with the req.
uisite stamps to treat once or twice,
whereupon Pat concluded he was
pretty .'cliver for nagur, be dad,",
and he guessed that he could stay
in the same room with him for two
or three hours, if the gintleman from
Africa would stay out all the time,
begorra.' So friend Pat was con
Quoted into his room, perfectly uno,
conscious of the fact that the pro
prietor and actual clerks knew moth
ing of the joke that was being played
on him. Overcome with fatigue
and swordfish, he soon fell into a
sound sleep. His tor rentors then
went to work and blacked his face
ard hands in the most artistic ssyle.
At the proper hour he was called
and repairing to the Depot boarded
the train. AS soon as it became
fully light, Pat happened to notice
himself in the mirror. AZ explo-
sion followed Immediately. -
"Be jabers, where's the conduc-
tor?'' shouted Pat. That gentle
man at once put in an appearance.
well, what is it you want ?'' en-
quired Bill
"W ant is it? be dad. Why, sir,
be jabers there has been a mistake
made, sure. An didn't I tell the
clerk at the hfcIntire House to wake
me up for the 4 o'clock train, and
here he's went and walked up the
nagur, while I'm there slapin as
sound as a roach, and Dennis
Mccartney is expectfn' me to his
weddin' the day. Stop the train
and let me get off and I'll go back
and give it to them swately for not
wakenin' me-" However, the train
was not stopped.
