V1croR HUGO on TIE WAR-Victor
Hugo Inns addressed the ladies of Guern-
.sey as follows: NJ ,
"LADIEs-Again some men have con-
demned Il part Of thellumOn race to death,
and u desperate war has commenced. This
is neithcra war Of liberty nor OF duty, but
a war of caprice. Two peoples arc about
TO destroy each other for the pleasure Of
two princes. While thinkers arc perfect
ing civilization, kings are pcrtectng war
Tits willbc a ftightlul one. Some thets
TGuUrO IRE announced gun that will
kill twelve men; u cannon that will kill
one thousand. 1t is no longer tho pure
md free waters of the great Alps that is
To flow in torrents into the Rhine, but lnl.
man blood! Mothers, sisters, daughters,
wives, shall weep. Yon are al about TO
go in mourning; some because Of their
own troubles; tho rest because Of tho mis-.
fortunes Of the others"

Ohio County Republican Ticket
The County Ticket and Canvass

Inc NOunLy 14CA6I uuO SNAtASSs
The Republican County Convention yes
tcrday transacted its business harmonious
ly, and the results may be found in another
column. A large crowd gathered in the
Court House during the morning sitting,
attracted chiefly by the interest felt in the
contest for the sheritt7s nomination. Com
parativeIy slight interest was manifested
in reference to the remainder of the ticket
Though there was a warm rivalry over
the SheriGalty, there was no unsccmly en-
hibitton of feeling, and when the result
was reached, no feeling but one OF entire
acquiescence was manifested by the friends
of the unsuccessful candidates. The ma
ioriLy OF the outside crowd evidently
synlpathized with Mr. BRowN, and when
his nomination was announced, they gave
lively expression to their satisfaction.
The nomination is undOubtedlya strong
and popular one; and although our can
didate carries good deal Of weight, Mr..
SuALIcRoss will have to be right wide
awake il he does not find himself dis
tanced, t.ut.
Thewholc ticket is uncxccptionablc and
merits the united support Of our party.
II the complete Republican vote of the
county could be brought TO the polls we
believe the whole ticket could be elected.
Our success VIII be proportionatc 10 our
efforts to bring out thevote. 1t is not too
much to hope for the election Of the
whole ticket, and to work for the rcaliza-
ton OF that hope is the duty Of oil from
now till the election. ...
The centre Of the fight will be the
sherifalty. We have candidate who
will find u special element Of strength
with the young mon Of the city, who are
his enthusiastic friends, and will give vim
and snap to the canvass; but we trust all
the candidates for the other offices and
their friends will each put his shoulder to
the whePl and move things along lively.

Metz is deemed by some the strongest
fortress in France and isrCgardGd rs i'm.
pregnable to anything but starvation or
voluntary surrender. In 1853 the Consta.
BILE NOntmoEency gained possession Of It
by stratagem. Charles ", Emperor Of
Germany, Immediately besicged It with
10000 men. At the end often months
he raised Tie. scige and retired, having lost
10000 Of Ills force in q fruitlcSs contest.
The present Notifications Of Metz were
planned by Vauban. 1t may be well to shy
here that this city isseatCd on the Moselle
river, ut the junction Of small stream
called La Scillc. The population Is near
~ 10000. The city is entirely surround.
ed by Notifications, so constructed that
they can be defended by1OO00 men orb by
100000. Several forts, crossing each
others fro and sweeping the surrounding
country for miles, are situated at intervals
around tho place. One Of the most impor-
tant Of these Is called Belle. CroiX, and Is
regarded as a eE4f FRurTe Of military con-
struction, Next in strength comes La
Double CourOnne an immense work sur
rounded BY triple ditch filed with water.

doubt Of Id Pate, which can be
converted into IN island by closing
the sluices on the Seillc. About 800
guns Of heavy ,callhrc are mounted on
these works. There are, besides, bas'
tions and rcdans for light artillery. A
fourth fort is said 70 have been construct
cd quite recently, which, il true, adds
greatly to the strength Of the city. In
fact, when It Is borne in mind that TO
reach the Notifications It will be necessary
for an assailing force to cross two bitches,
fifty feet wide, by eighty feet deep, the I'M.
possibility Of carrying Metz by a storm
will be perceived. Furthermore, the
waters Of the Seilc can be rdised twenty
four feet, flooding the surrounding coun'
try SO as to form q lake six miles in extent.
Ordinarily the garrison Of Metz numbers
about $4,000 men. Should tho French
army uncover Paris, we suppose that q
force of $4,000 or 10000 men, without in
Guiding the Garde Mobile Of the city,
would be LEFT to defend: ~ d.

X DURING the prevalence Of the cholera
in the summer of 1919, tue Old Artillery
of Troy was sent down on tho road be-
tween that city and Albany to fire cannon
to keep oil the. epidemic. As.cannon fir-
ing ilnpregnatcd the air with sulphur, the
philosophers Of that, day supposed that
the disease could be successfully resisted
with siege guns. The cholera was not
frightened BY tho artillery. The pestll
lence invaded Troy and remained for over
two months. ,n-tf',', il; NJ ~.

II isnoted, as ono OF the ifrAt results OF
the European war, that there has sprung
lip in the dry gools1narket in New York,
an active demand for black goods, par
ticularly those adapted to mourning, un.
der the conviction that these arc going to
be very scarce. Black alpacas, of all
grades, from 29tto Doc per yard, are
being bought freely by American manu-.
factnrers 10 supply the deficiency created
by the suspension Of the Prlssian mills.

THE Convention yesterday, recon-

Us the Republican candidate for Senate.
1t is not known whether Hancock and
Brooke wish Convention or not, but it is
understood the people up there generally
desire tic nomination of Mr.. HERvEY;
and as this county iseltitlcd to the candi-
date, We have no doubt the conventions
ofthose counties will accept Mr.. HEnvEY
without holding Senatorial Convention!
II, however, . Convention is desired, this
county has voted for Mr.. HERvEY, who
is an educated and capable gentleman,
and would make very creditablc sena-
