We notice hat the old misgivings
between the Ohio Statesman and the
editor of the Wayne County Demo
crat have again been ventilated in the
Statesman. We are unable to see
that any good can result from contin-
uing a personal wrangle of that kind.
We have frequently spoken in very
generous terms of the-Statesman, un.
der the management of Mr.. Mills, as
to matter and ability ; but if as a
stranger in Ohio, he persists in sowing
discord among the local press, we fear
he will forfeit that good opinion
We have known Mr.. Eshelman-
long and we'll ; and know he has work
ed faithfully and effectively for his
party. and deserves better treatment
We know nothing about the private
griefs of the Statesman. We don't
believe the public will care a fig about
them; and no good ear result from
their publication.
AS one desiring the welfare of both
offices, as well as the success of the
Democracy, we earnestly urge both
parties to "stack arms,"-erec. new
batteries, and point their artillery in
the direction of the common enemy.

of his departure. Friday night a hack
driver, by previous arrangement, took
McGrath and Mrs. Resestee, and three
OF their trunks, from the eastern por-
ton of the city, to %the Piqus Depot.
He then returned and got three more
trunks, which he unloaded at the Uni
on Depot. Afterwards he brought the
runaways and the other trunks to the
latter depot, in time for the Cincinnati
train, Here their movements excited
suspicion, Mrs. Roselle, (who was re-
cognized by a police officer) paying the
expenses of the extra baggage, which
was checked to st. Louis, and doing
all the necessary business. McGrath
Was gone in a state of intoxication.

two officers and a livery stable keeper,
who had by some means obtained in
formation of the intended departure,
reached the depot and entered the
train, peremptorily demanding pay
ment OF a livery bill of twenty-five
dollars contracted by McGrath, which
Mrs, Roselle promptly paid. The bell
rung, the train moved off, and the
couple have not been heard from
since.
The injured husband returned from
Chicago on Saturday, but we under
stand has expressed a determination
not to pursue or attempt a reconcilia
ton. We hear him well spoken of by
his friends, who say that his conduct
to his wife was of the most commend
able character-that she was accom-
modated in all her wants, was well
dressed and plentifully supplied with
servants.
McGrath is, said not tc have been a
pattern of domts ic upIishtness. He
leaves a wife, a lady of comely APP
pearance and excellent character, and
two children. Mrs. Hoselle had no
children.

the families believe that the abscond-
ing woman will soon ascertain that she
has 'put her foot in it."

The War.

The kilograms from Europe for the
last few days have been rather tame
France and Prussia are confronting
each other. A large army is in mo-
ton, on both sides. The Emperor of
the French, with his son, is now at
the front. He takes command of the
army. His Marshals are men of great
military experience. The Prussians
will be led most probably by the King.
If a fight comes off at all, it will take
place within the next ten days.
In the meantime, England, Russia,
Austria, as well as Turky are neutral.
As French honor has been deeply
wounded, after the first battle, it is
said these neutral powers will use their
good offices to bring the war to a spec
dy close.
The existing rivalries in Europe,
will not permit France or any other
power to very materially change the
present boundaries of governments.
The utmest that al be done, viii
be a hard fight or two; and the Rhine
will be made the boundary between
France and Prussia, and the German
States.
In the meantime, speculation will
be spreading its meshes in the Amer
lean markets. Already grains have
advanced. Flour, is now up to $3.50
per barrel.

1--WE are happy to learn that the demand
for the WHTTE-PINE COMPOUND is in
ereasing beyond all previous expectations.
1t is the very best medicine for Coughs and
Colds we know of, and no family that has
once used it will ever be without 1T. We
speak. from our own knowledge: it is sure
to kill a cold, and pleasant as sure. The
greatest inventions come by accident /: and 1t
is singular that the WHITE-PINE COM
POUND, made for Colds and Coughs, should
prove the greatest remedy for Kidney diff
cuities known. But so it is. We annot
doubt it, so many testimonials come to us
from well known men. Besides the charac-.
ter of DIR. Poland is such that we know he
will not countenance what is wrong. For
years a Baptist clergyman, studying medi-
cine to find remedies for his ailments, with
n delicate c~onsumptive look, standing with
one foot upon the grave, he made the dis
covery which has saved himself, and called
out from hundreds of others the strongest
testimonials possible. We have known DIR,
Poland for years, and neverkuew a more con-
honest upright, man and we are
glad TO state that we believe whatever he
saws about his WHITE PINE CoMFoUND. 1885
