THAT FLANK MOVEMENT 1T is
not unusual with a rogue, when
close pressed, to join in the cry. of
his pursuers 70 "stop thief" And
so the Democratic papers OF this
District join in such cry, because
the nice little scheme of their candi-
date to beat his adversaries was ex-
posed by the Republican press. The
Messenger has closely scanned the
type, and charges the publication
upon a Sandusky city Office. The
Bucyrus Forum, more bold, or more
unscrupulous, charges it upon the
Sandusky Register in the following
words:
We have it from good reliable authority.
and shall hereafter publish it to the world for
fact, without the paper implicated puts In an
express denial, that the Sandusky Register,
for the purpose of injuriug Mr.. Dickinson, and
making political capital against him, printed
and caused to be circulated the following
fraudulent address .
Upon the principle that "a lie well
stuck is as good as the truth" the
Forum should have quit at that.
But its editor to make assurance
doubly sure, goes further and "kicks
over the bucket" Something must
be done, he thinks, and a certificate
is gotten up denying that the Craw-
ford county delegates Gas charged
bv the Register had received copies
of the circular several days before
the convention. The certificate
closes as follows:
Furthermore, we believe that the circular
referred to, is a fraud; that it was printed in
the Office Of the Sahdusky Register, or Free
signed by John Franz, ). R. Clyiner, G. L.
Salisbury, Thomas Coughlin, A. i. Janner,
Thomas Beer, James Clements, Robert Lee,
VIM. NJ Scroggs, Abram. Summers, Samuel
Myers, Frederick Hipp, J. H. Robinson, DR..
three thousand more Democrats Of Crawford
County if necessary.
Now, ifthat amt of the ''stop thief
order, what is it? In the first place
it is directly charged against the
Sandusky Register, and then the
charge is toned down to one of
''belief," and that beliefof so uncer-
tain character that instead of one
paper being charged two are impli-
Gated. 1t will not do, gentlemen,
YOU will have to father this bantling
of your candidate, if it is an un,
gainly looking one.
We do not pretend to speak for the
Register. It is, no doubt, able to
sneak for itself. But so far as the
implication is intended for this
Office. We say to those gentlemen
who have signed that certificate if
they make the ayerment that
it. was done here, they are q set

SAD CAUsALY.-0n Thursday
last, during an exhibition Of the
Cleveland Fire Department, for the
benefit of the Fire Department OF
London, Canada, fatal accident
occurred, which lnsrred the pleasure
of the occasion, and by which John
C. Sturges, fireman ofNo. steamer
was almost instantly killed. 1t ap-
pears that the steamer, had halted
at the reservoir, and the fireman was
engaged in lifting the suction hose
out of its rest when the hose cart
came rushing up, the horses having
become unmsnagable, and before 1t
conld be stopped or turned from Its
course. one of the shafts struck Mr..
S. on the head forcing it against the
wheel of the steamer, and crushing
his skull in frightful manner, and
causing almost instant death. He
leaves a wife and one child to mourn
his death.

do You Want Your Sister to Mar
rY a Niger ?"

The above touching appeal, which has
formed the text Of the best Democratic stump
orators for the past five years, was answered
on Friday last in our quiet little city.
Cal. Henry, the barber, is respectable col
ored gentleman.
One of our Democratic youths had a good
looking sister.
She had heard this crushing Democratic
ccnnundrum asked so often that she determin-
ed to help solve it.
Cal, the son of Ham, loved the Democratic
''gal," /" and this gushing maiden was bound to
.'marry niger"
The big brother objected with his fist
planted firmly in the face and eyes of Calls
deputy.
The Hamilton Freeman saws:
"a Fort Dodge minister was applied to to tie
the 'silken cord but, in view of the near ap-
proach Of the Democratic Congressional Con-
vention, and the dog days, he refused The
maiden was not to be defeated, and started
east to escape her brother. Cal. was to follow,
but our Democratic friends made grand raj

have you bound to them. In fact,
they consider that they own You, and
if ever you attempt to exercise indie

you to do their bidding.
Two years ago numerous fraudu-
lent naturalization papers were is
sued in this county, issued from the
Probate Court, where the present
Democratic Candidate for Congress
presided, and who at that time was
candidate for Congress and inter

could. He is now under indictment
for issuing those papers, every one
of which was a fraud against you.
He claims that he did not do it, and
he may have been too sharp, at
least, to deliver them to persons
whose evidence might convict him.
That, however, is to be determined
by the court. But the evidence
of his deputy clearly shows they
were issued from his office, and by
one whom he had entrusted to dc
business for him. As the principal
is bound by the action of his agent
and as he was tue party to be bene-
fitted, it is at least presumable that
he was not ignorant of the proceed.

ATTACK ON vERDUN
REPORTED GERMAN REPULsE.

PARIS, August 27.-One Of the city journals
this morning has a remarkable editorial, of
which the following is an extract; "Next to
the near approach of the Prussians towards
Paris, that which most occupies public atten-
ton is the possibility of an open rupture be-
tween the government and General Trochu."
The Prussians not only waragainst ordinary
military laws, but those also of humanity. At
Strasburg they have cruelty forced all the
young men to work in the trenches, and in
some cases threatening them with death if they
refused. Shots from the ramparts of the be-
seiged city kill these laborers in the Prussian
army. Frenchman are thus forced to kill their
brethren.
Such acts as the above are unworthy of this
age; they give singular idea of Prussian civ
ilization. They only serve to increase the
hatred of the French and augment our de-
termination to punish them as they deserve.
A correspondent Of the London Times wri-
ting from this city says the French Garde
Mobile is formed of children and that but few
of the members are over eighteen years Of age.
This is untrue, every member is from twenty
TO twenty five years old.
The approach of the Prussians on Paris cre-
ates the most intense excitement. Dispatches
received from various provinces announce
sudden and immense increase in volunteer
ing to defend the capital.
Yesterday detachment of the UhiAns at
tackled the railway depot at Epernay while
others oftho main body entered the town. Some
soldiers of the National Guard attacked and re-
puIsed them, killing seventeen.
A strong column of Prussian artillery has
entered ChalOns
The garrison at Strasburg yesterday made
n successful sortie. They captured u convoy
of cattle and some munitions OF war. The
citv still makes vigorous resistance. A large

wehr, lately passed through Nancy.
