Germany IL Losing Her Noblest Sons, but
the War is not In Vain.
BERLIN, August 20.-The official organ
to-day says although Germany is losing her
noblest sons, she has the comfort to know
the war is not in vain.
That it is one against race known to our
forefathers as full Of arrogance and insO-
lence, and which has robbed Ills of our fair
est provinces. God will enable our King to
establish durable peace in mid Europe, in
the shape Of united Germany, the keystone
of true freedom and morality,

IA Benjamin Wilson, aged "a
years, and son Of Richard Wilson,
otthIs township, was drowned while
in bathing just below Shepard &
Dickev's mill on last Saturday af-
ternoon. The deceased was on an
errand to the mill, and thought he
would improve the time he had to
wait 10 get his grinding done by
taking a bath. By i~ndlscretion he
got into swift water, and not beng
a good swimmer, was carried bes
yond his depth, or ability to gain
the shore. Prompt assistance was
given HIM by some little bows who
were IN bathing at the same time.
bat were too small to make their
assistance efficient. George Sharp.
who was in the mill at the time.
WAS attracted by the cries of the
boys, and he done all that it Was
possible for him TO do under the
circumstances. he tried first to
get a skiff that was near at hand to
his relief, bat finding it locked, he
jumped INTO tho water and endeav-
ored to get him to shore. But, the
deceased being frightened and like
all drowning men, grabbed Sharp
by the legs and came near drown,
ing both of them. Sharp succeeded,
however, in breaking Wilson's hold
on him and rising above the surface
ofthe water, He Immediately dove
for Wilson, but could not find HIM.
Finally. after the body had been in
the water for about fifteen minutes
James Legget succeeded In finding
1t; but all life had departed. THE
deceased had the reputation of be.
ing an industrious, well-doing young
man. HIS death is a severe blow
10 his parents, of whom he vas the
only child living.

ENFORCEMENT OF TIE BEER ORDINANCE.
"A little over one year ago, a "Beer
ordinance was passed by the Town
Council of this village. Owing to some
cause or other, this Ordinance has re-
manned a 'dead letter" until within
the last week, and beer has been CO.
piously sold and drank on all days of
the week, Sundays not excepted, con-
trary to its provisions The Saloon
keepers had concluded that the ordi-
nance was not valid, and hat their
right to make drunkards out of the
youth of our village, and to make
night hideous with b~acchanalian yells
to the disturbance of the more respec-
table portion of community, was un-
deniable. But, on last Saturday, an
affidavit was fled with Mayor McCar-
ty, charging that one of the chief
amongst them was selling beer contra
~ to the provisions of the Ordinance,
and on being arrested and brought be-
fore the Mayors Court, heplead guilty,
and was fined fifteen dollars and costs,
and sent to jail for three days. This
created quit Il sensation amongst the
rest of the Saloon-keepers, and some
of them began to entertain serious no
tons of quitting the business. On
Monday, another of them was arrested;
and, after INDUCING in considerable
talk about sending to GAINESVILLE for a
Lawyer who would come here and
show the Ordinance not to be valid,
he, on Tuesday, plead guilty, and re-
ceived the same sentence as mentioned
above. On Wednesday, another of
these great humanitarian ~ was ar
rested, plead guilty, and quietly sub
mitted to the sentence of "three days
and fifteen dollars and costs" Who
viii be the next one is beyond our
ken.
We are told that the above mention
ed proceedings have caused all dealers
in beer to quit the business. The
question now arises as to 'thow long
they viii stay quit" 1t is to be hoped
that the lessons they have learned
within the past week will induce them
to "stay quit" altogether. 1t is not
desirable that N portion of our COM
mTaity should find Unnecessary to the
maintenance Of our local laws to in
stitute proceedings against another
portion which viii terminate in the
latter being -incarcerated in Jail and
subjected to heavy fines; and conse-
~quently, all good citizens must join in
the hope that our local as well as State
laws will be better regarded. We are
satisfied, from what knowledge we can
gain relative to the matter, that our
citizens are determined to have the
Beer Ordinance" respected; and that
if persons continue to violate it, they
can expect nothing but fines and i'm
prisonment. Knowing this to be the
case, we advise all to obey it in the
letter and in the spirit, and not to re-
sort to any evasions which will surely
get them into trouble.

A e PORTRAIT.
President Grant as Photo
graphed by the Man who
Made Him.

a full confession has at last been
eXtortcd from the guilty individual
who inflicted Grant upon the peo-
pie. 1t is Chas. A. Dana, and he
makes a clean breast as follows:
as for general Grant personally,
we have neither spite, grudge, nor
revenge. He never refused us any
personal favor, for we never asked
anything of him, save only the ap.
polntment of Horace Greeley as
Minister to England; and as he
sent a man there who isn't half as
fit for the place as Mr.. Greedy, we
have never borne him any grudge
on that account. But toward Gen.
eral Grant as President, we cherish
a very profound feeling of disap-
po:ntmcnt and dissatisfaction.
There were few men IN the country
who had taken moro stock in him
than We had. During the war,
when be was digging canals at
Vicksburg. and was on the point
of beng relieved from his command,
Mr.. Dana did what he could to have
him retained at the head OF the ar
my in the Mississippi Vally; and the
effort was successful. But for his
agency Grant would then hare been
sent back to Galena; and in that
eceqt he could neither hare become
Commander-in- Chief of the army nor
President ofthe United States.
Next, when he was a candidate
for the Presidency, we did what we
could to secur for him the nom:na-
ton Of the Republican National
Convention; and then we helped to
get him the votes of a majority of
the American people. All this VIC
did simply because we thought 1t
best for the country; and all we de-
mauded of Gen. Grant was an hon.
est, sensible, di~sinterested, and pa
triotic administration Of his office.
Does anybody think that was 100
much to expect of him.
But instead of this, his admins.
t~ration Is bad, foolish, weak, cow
ardly, corrupt, ~anti-Amerlcan, con-
temptiblc at home, and more con-
temtible abroad. Ii is impossible
tc speak the truth and deny that
this is SO. 1t is impossible for an
Independent Journalist, ANXIOUS to
discharge his obligations to the
people, to conceal or palliate facts
so fearful and so notorious.
Tho President is incompetent,
lazy, neglected. of his duties, una
bic 70 comprehend them, and care
less about performing them. He
appoints men to Office simply be-
cause they have made him pres
ents, or are his relations, or because
some foolish caprice prompts it.
He jegrades the country IN the
eyes of all the world, and stands
trembling like a coward for fear of
a corrupt and bankrupt power like
Spain. The man who saved the
nation as a soldier is covering us
with shame as a President.
