Letter from Senator Sherman.

Letter from Senator Sherman.
Hon. John Sherman of Ohio, has
written the following reply to an in
vitation to attend the Georgia State
Fair at Macon:
MANSFIELD, Ohio, Oct, 26, go.
DEAR SIR: / have been postpon-
ing for long time an answer to
your.invitation to attend the Geor-
gia State Fair at Macon, on the
10th of November next, with the
sincere hope that might be able to
accept tt; but it is now manifest
that will not be able to leave her
in time to do so. I desire very
much to visit not only your State,
but all the Gulf and Cotton States,
to learn by actual observation the
great resources of that very impor-
tant section of our common coun-
try. The heat and animosity grow
ing out of the institution of slavery
for long time precluded one of my
political convictions from doing so
with satisfaction, but now feel that
in the changed condition of affairs,
no reason exists why I could not do
so.
My earnest wish is to contribute
in every way possible to the devel-
opment and prosperity of the South.
For that purpose it is public duty
to study your resources-to become
acquainted with your wants-the
character and inclinations of your
people, and especialls their produc-
tions and emplcyments. Nearly all
the public men Of this section hav c
confined their visits to the East or
the West, and we only know of the
cultivation of cotton and rice, as we
do of tea and coffee, by what we
read and not by what we sec. Your
State Fair would have given me an
excellent opportunity to learn many
things. and regret my inability to
attend it. I hope, however, to pass
through the South before the meet
ing of Congress, and if I do so,
will be very happy to meet you at
Savannah.
I am truly yours,
JOHN SHERMAN.

A BABY's SoL1LoQUY.-I am here.
And, if this is what they call the
world, I don't think much Of it. It's
a very fannelly world, and smells
awfully. It's dreadful light world,
too, and makes me blink, I tell you.
And I don't know what to do with
my hands; I think I'll dig my fists
in my eyes. No I won't. I'll scrab-
BILE at the corner of my blanket and
chew it up, and then I'll holler;
whatever happens I'll holler. And
the more paregcric they give me
the louder I'll yell. That old
nurse puts the spoon in the corner
of my mouth in very uneasy way,
and keeps tasting my milk herself
all the while. She spilled snuff in
it last night, and when I hollered
she trotted me. That. comes of be
ing two days old baby. Never
mind, when I'm man, I'll pay her
back good. There's pin sticking
in me now, and if I say a word
about it I'll be trotted or fed, and I
would rather have catnip tea. I'll
tell you who I am. l found out to-
day. I heard folks say, "Hush,
don't wake up Emmeline's baby"
That's me. I'm "Emmeline's baby"
and I suppose that pretty, white
faced woman, over on the pillows is
Emmeline.
No, / was mistaken, for a chap
was in here just now and wanted to
see Bob's baby, and looked at me,
and said I "was funny little toad,
and looked just like Bob" He
smelt Of cigars, and I'm not used to

Since our last issue a fracture of
the skull was detected on the right
side of his head. DR.. Firestone, of
Wooster was also sent for, and on
Tuesday, while he was here it was
decided to move the fractured piec-
es in hopes it would relieve the
more grave injury at the base of the
brain. Four pieces were therefore
taken out, making space of about
three square inches.
The brain, below the pieces re-
moved, exhibited no signs of injury

the same as before and, the opera
ton, as yet, has not had the desired
effect.-Bucyrus Journal.

Kisses Feminines ad libitum,
under the Pretence that they
are his "SiSters."
Accidentally getting our eyes
upon copy of the Illustrated Po-
lice Ne,cs of the 11th ult., the fol-
lowing attracted our attention as it
was accompanied by an illustrative
picture, and as the scene was repor-
ted to have taken place at our
neighboring towu of Bucyrus, we
reproduce the article here:
A festive and fair youth, of amor
Gus propensities rather inordinately
developed, living in the town of
Bucyrus, Ohio, has been in the
habit of kissing strange young Ia
dies in public. That he, or that
any youth of this or any other pc
riod, should kiss ladies' is not
strange in itself. but that he should
kiss those with whom he was not in
the slightest degree acquainted, and
in public places is at once singular
and surprising. His plan seems to
have been to haunt the railroad sta.
tions toward afternoon when the
trains deposit many fair feminines
in the town in question, and as the
prettiest Of them would alight from
the cars he would rush up to them
very hastily, and before they even
had chance to scan his features
he would imprint a sweet memento
on their dewy and candifed lips
Then they would, of course, look
sad and injured at him, when he
would explain by remarking hastily
and well-feigned confusion
"Excuse me, Miss, beg ten thou.
sand pardons. I thought you were
my sister,
This young man has thus had, ac
cording to his own showing, no less
than score of sisters in one week
which is multiplication of relatives
far beyond the bonds of physiology
or common sense.
The most remarkable feature ir
the case, however, remains to be
told. Many young ladies who were
in the habit of riding on this trair
and getting off at this particular
station where this young man was
got to be on the look out for him
and on observing his pleasant phiz
with lips ready for action, would
draw close unto him as if to receive
his salutation. Many instances O.
this kind have happened within th'
J last few weeks, and at latest dates
our champion "kisser," had his arms
full of SISTERS" who were waiting
for the usual salutation.

~ We reproduce the followin

~ We reproduce the following
from the Springfield Transcr;p
which has received the approval of
several of our exchanges. We con-
cur in the suggestion, and have for
years desired that the editors of
Ohio could be induced to meet an
nually and counsel together as to
their best interests, and we firmly
believe that much good would re-
suit from such Convention. An
excellent opportunity to form each
others acquaintance would thus be
afforded, and free interchange of
opinion and experience would be q
good thing for all. Let US have the
Convention. The Transcript says
"In view of the fact that all of the
other professions in life have socie-
ties which convene annually for
the promotion of their own welfare,
we see no good reason why there
should not be an organization
among journalists, and similar an
nual Conventions held by them
We believe that the editors and pub
fishers of some of the Western
States already have joined together
into associations, and are holding
annual Conventions to their mutual
profit but there is apparently no dis
position among editors and publish
ers in Ohio to follow this example.
Why is this :? Can we not always
learn of each othcr' and is there
no disposition among the editors of
Ohio to become acquainted with
their CO laborers Let our breth-
rem Of the press anawer, and If ia
vorably impressed. publish call
for the first Convention"

THE WAY TO SEND MoNEY.-Never
send money in a letter. No prudent
person will ever do so. Ifyou want to
send money get a Post office order, or
Draft. In either of these ways there
can be no loss.
Post office orders can be readily pro-
cured for any important towns. and
this way of sending money is perfectly
safe and cheap. The following are the
rates charged for money orders:
On orders not exceeding $50 10 cts.
Over $40 and not exceeding $50 Is cts.
6 $50 8. :. :. $40 20 cts.
$40 $50 25 cts.

OUR NEW BUILDING

Into which the REPUBLICAN office
was removed last week is pleasantly
and centrally located on Wyandot
Avenue, a few steps west of the
Court House.
The cellar walls were begun on
the 11th day Of August, 1869. Mr..
Peter Weinandy furnished the stone
and lime and Mr.. John Tripp put
up the walls. Mr.. A. G.. Bacon,
our marble dealer, furnished the
range and window-cap stone, and
Harman & Fisk furnished the brick.
The Everheart brothers did the
brick work, and Mr.. John Swift,
assisted by Mr.. Lever, furnished
the lumber and did the carpenter
work. The tin roof was put on by
Mcssrs. Hale & Kirby, and the
plastering was done by Mr.. John
Tripp and his assistants. The
painting was done by Measrs. Nc
Cormicks & Ludwig. The building
is forty feet front and twenty two
feet deep. The first floor is divided
into two rooms, the west one being
designed for the post office and is
now occupied by the same. The
east room we would like to rent for
provision and notion store, and
we are confident that a judicious and
energetic man could command q
very profitable business. The sec
ond floor was expressly designed
for permanent home from which
to issue the REPUBLICAN henccforth.
From the time the foundation
was begun there has been no drag
or delay. All the mechanics were
prompt, and we wish particularly,
on this occasion, to assure them
that we are we'll pleased with the
manner in which their respective
work was performed.
Long and hard work enables US
to issue the REPUBLICAN from its
own premises. Destitute of pride,
we occupy our new location with a
lively appreciation of the support
extended to us by the patrons and
friends of the REPUBLICAN. The
little means which industry and
economy have enabled us to accu-
mulate, we have endeavored to ex-
pend wisely; and, we would add,
that we arc very desirous of making
needed ir provements in our paper
which only a lively and increased
support can enable US to accom-
plish. In the future, as in the past,
We shall do the best we can with
the means at our command.

WASHINGTON, April IS. 1862
AL the churches here were well filed today. At
Sc. Patrick's Roman Catholic chapel impressive sef-
vices were held In connection with the commence
ment Of the forty hours alteration OF the blessed
sacrament. High mass was celebrated at eleven
O'Clock A. NJ by Rev. Father Walter assisted by sew
era other clergymen, after which an eloquent SER
mon was preached by Rev. Father Keen from the
text. "very thou art hidden God, the God of
Israel, the Saviour'-Isaiah 4lst chapter and 18TH

o-day was first Instituted about the year
1910, by the Archbishop of Milan. over three
hundred years ago. The occasion was the

CANNON STREET BAPTIST CHURCH.

Rev. John q. Adams "CiOse Communion.''
Yesterday afternoon the Rev. Mr.. John @. Adams,
pastor OF this church, which still retains the above
dsting uisng name, although located at the corner
of Madison and GOuverneur Streets preached to a
numerous congregation upon the subject OF "Close
or Restricted Communion,' it being the last Of a
series OF lectures upon doctrlnal subjects. He Sc
lected as his text the lOrtyfrst and forty-second
verseS Of the second chapter Of the Acts OF
the Apostles, '1'hen they that gladly received
His word were baptised; and the same day
there were added unto them about three
thousand souls. And they continued steadfastly In
the apostles doctrine and fellowship and in break
ing OF bread and In prayers.m These words, said

Lord Jesus Christ and in accordance with this CON-

fore they were baptized Is the most startling"
There but one religious denomination IN the world
that does not make baptism prerequisite for COM
munion, that being the Freewill Baptists and the
act Of associating with them IN this sacred observ
ance by ''close communicates" would be the
voluntary reputation of the latter's own faith
OF baptism. This observance Scripture teaches us
should be by immersion, and therein lies the sepa-
ration OF the great body of the Baptist persuasion OF
Christians. II the Church ordinance Of baptism
may be administered by sprinkling, why cannot
mention OF 1t he found IN the Greek Testament, and
why did not the apostles who interpreted the COM
mands OF the Lord ever advert TO this method
Common sense Is the best ingredient, after all, in
the matter Of proper understanding of
the teachings OF the Testament. Faith, re-
pentance, baptism by immersion and communion
were the orders IN which he believed should be the
requisites for church fellowship and this is fully In
obedience to Christs precepts. Submission to this
ordinance must be maintained, as 1t Is divine COM
mand; and the charges OF blgotry and selfishness
brought against B8psts by adherents OF other sects
have no weight with the intelligent when this fully
understood. Daptsts stand on principle, ana they are
forbidden by the Lord to hold communion with un-
baptized persons, and they cannot These are but q
few meagre points touched upon by the pastor in
his logical DISCOURSE which was listened to with
attention ana evident satisfaction.
