A number of persons in the vicinity
of Berlin have inquired of us If we had
anything to do with inviting Dr. l. 7.
Monahan to speak at the Sunday School
celebration at Berlin on the Fourth Of
July, or IL we knew who did get him to
speak. They claim that DR.. MOnahan is
now engaged in selling intoxicating
liquors, and that he is in tho habit OF
profane swearing In the presence ofchil-
dren, aAd that it is improper to have
such a man to speak publicly to Sunday
School children.
We had nothing whatever to do with
il, nor do we know who had. The
committee Of arrangements ought to
know. As to the prOpristy of having
him to speak, We have only this to say
DR.. Monahan possesses some good quail
tiles, and some bad ones. In this he il
very much like many other men.
We have come to the conclus ion
that Pope, 10 his Universal Prayer
was about right when he says;
aI,et not my weak presumptuous hand
Attempt Thy bolts TO throw,
Aud deal damnation round the land
on ell deem Thy foe.

"Gell. Enochs, of Ironton, is being pushed for
Marshal of Southern Ohio, when Gen. Hicken-

EnOch's friends are wasting all their energies
and had better save their ammunition for some
occasion when II is wanted Gen. Hlckenlooper
will keep his place as long as he wants IT, for
Gen. Grant knows his value and his capacity,
and his personal worth. No man in ONO de-
serves better from the people and the admins

friends who will stand by him to the last"

is, should fall into SO grave an error He knows
that Gen. Hickenlooper was appointed by that
most miserable of all tricksteTs that ever welded
executive powcr,and that during his presidency,
Gen. IL. obeycd his behest in the appointment Of
Deputies, majority Of whom were Of that mis-
erable class who gave the rebellion all the mid
and comfort possible, consistent with the per-
sonal safety of their precious carcasses.
Those deputies, Il majority, If not ALL openly
declared that all the legislation Of Congress
since the rebellion, was unconstitutional and
void, including the revenue laws. Those depu-
ties selected jurors of the same stripe, who uni
formly acquitted all criminals charged with the
violation of the revenue laws of the United
States. This state OF things obtained so long as
Andy johnson remained in power When Gen.
Grant succeeded, Gen. Hickenlooper saw ft to
change many, If not oil of his deputies. After
such change and change of District Attor-
ney, convictions of the vlolators of the revenue
laws were had, and not until then. Now the
reason ms we understand It, for retaining Gen.
Hlokealoopor, is not so much his Invaluable
services, us tho embarrassment of the admins
tration in selecting his successor from the appli-
cants whose claims seem to be evenly balanced.
When Gen. HlclIenlooper's time expires, sue
cessor may be appointed, aud let us hope that
the lucky man will be Gen. Euochs, who Is every
way fit and deserving. Respectfully,

For Congress-,

A number Of gentlemen have been
named for Congress, since we announ-
cOd the name Of Mr.. Bundy. When
we made the announcement, VIC had
reason to believe that Mr.. Wilson would
not be = candidate, nor did we know
that there would be any other cand i
dates.
Several whose names are mentioned,
are not candidates. John CampebelI
and DR.. A. b. Monahan are not candi.
dates. The Gallipolis papers say moth
ing about Mr., Bradbury being n candi-
date. We suppose that Hon. John Il.
Wilson and J. N. Hook Of Adams
county, Hon. II. S, Bundy of Jackson
county, and Hon. J. j. Harper of Sci
oto will be all the candidates whose
names will go before the convention.
They are all good men, and We can
Chserfully support tho nominee,

A correspondent Of the Portsmouth
Tribune claims the candidate for Con-
gress.-To this the Jackson Standard
well says:-''We were not aware that
any county had any right to claim the
candidate. If SO we suppose that Law
renee, Gallia or Vinton, wonld have
claims superior to Adams, Scioto or
Jackson" Scioto and Lawrence have
now the two best offices the district af-
fords, and now comes SciotO and claim s
the Congressman. Perhaps it is all
right, but we must confess it don't look
so to u.s. -GalIpolis Journal

Answer to Mr.. DeKer's Card.

In card published in the Standard
this week, Mr.. Dover asks us as law
yer and friend to the enforcement of
the law, why the county Auditor turned
certain person out Of jail
We find on page LOG of the Statute s
nacted last winter, Sec, II, of the act
of April l8, 1870, the following
"The county auditor shall have powerto dis
charge from Imprisonment any person who shall
be confined in the county Jail for the non pay
ment OF any fine or oramercement due the county,
except fines for contempt of court or some offi-
Ger of tho law, when it shall be made clearly TO
appear to him that such fine or amercement can
not be collected by such Imprisonment"
ltappears to US very clearly that the
above law is good one. If a man is
fined and has the means to pay his fine,
and refuses to pay it, he should be i'm
prisoned until he comes to terms. But
suppose he has no meanH Can he ac-
quire the me ans while in prison7 Shall
the public be put to the additional e1-
pense of paying for his board when no
good can result!
In this parti cular case, it cannot fair
ly be said that the release Of this man
is contempt of the Probate Court, be-
cause that tribu al had full and ample
power to imprison the defendant as a
part of the punishment for the crime, and
there is no power to release him from
that sentence, But the Probate Court
did not order him to prison as punish
ment, but only to enforce the payment
of the fine and costs. Competent and
legal evidence was produced to the Au-
ditor which co nvin ced him that the fine
and costs could not be collected by such
Imprisonment. Here he clearly had the
power to release. How he exercised
that power is a matter which must be
left to his discretion, and not to that of
another. He must exercise that dis
cretlon IN good faith, under the oollga-
tons of his oath, as apublic ficer.
If this power to release in such cases
were not lodged some where, such i'm
prisonmept might, in cases of poor men,
become of indefinite duration, and thus
be tyranny, and violation of that
great and wholesome restriction in our
constitution which forbids the iniiction
of cruel or unusual punishments.
We are not surprised that Mr. De-
yer tsels aggrieved. But our remedy
in all such cases would be the chair
gang. Put such petty thieves to work
upon the streets. That would stoE
petty crimes.
