is very much afraid ifthe United States
should pay the fve-twenty bonds in
greenbacks, according to contract, that
foreign nations would say, in behalf of
there citizens who took the bonds, that
1--WE shall make common cause and
proceed to collect their claims for them
with cost of suit. Do you understand
that ?" Yes, we understand it! We
should like to see any or all the Euro
pean powers attempting to dectate to
or conquer the United States upon any
such issue. The effect would be amis-
cradle and contemplate failure. No
American citizen, with a drop of patri-
otto blood, would be deferred for a
moment by the dastardly threat of Mr..
MediIl.

CAN'T COME in

The negroes of Cincinnati are
worrying themselves over the
question, who of the race here
bouts shall receive the honor Of
a nomination for the Legislature
by the Republican Convention of
Thursday next. 1t is q subject
for laughter. just ss if the Re-
publicans would nominate a ne
gro to such an office, except in
localities SO strongly negro, that
the black could, if they chose, e.
lect one OF their own color with
out.any assistance .fromwL:te Re-
Republicans. Like Hamilton
County, where the negroes can do
nothing of themselves, and where
it is disputed by Republicans
that they even hold the balance
of power between the two parties
they need hardly worry them
selves as to who of their race
should be honored with a nomi-
nation for an elective office The
Republicans here know that the
negro voters, under tnclf pecuI-
lar political organization, can
support no other ticket than the
Republican, and SO are careless
about paying serious attentions
to their claims for Office, if they
have any. Knowing as we do.
these things, it amuses us to read
as we do in the Gazette and Com
mercial, communications from
negroes as to the proper person
of their race to be put in nomi-
nation by the Republican Con
vention. When the blacks can
command a nomination they will
get it from the Republicans, not
before. They will, however, in.
the meantime have equality with
the whites; socially and political

Proposed New Railroad in Ohio.
CFrom the Dayton Journal

The old road-bed of the Mack
NAV Railway, from Greenville
north to Van Vert, which, a
short time since, was sold to par
ties at Greenville. has been trans
ferred to a company of New York
capitalists, who propose to com
plete the route and put it in oper-
alton as early as possible. Nh.
S. W. Morton, OF New York, who
is one of the company, and
Judge McKemy Of Dayton has pas
sed over the liue recently from
Greenville north and found them
willing to contribute literally to
the construction of the road.
There is no doubt but the line
from Greenville through the
northwest counties will be built,
and an effort is being made to
extend the road south from
Greenville to Hamilton and Gin
cinnati. It is very desirable that
Dayton should secure the advaE-
tage to be derived flom this road
aud a meeting will be held here
on Monday eveing, at the Board
of trade rooms, to take measures
for aiding in its construction and
connecting it with the Dayton &
Uniou road, which will make the
southern terminus of the route in
this citv. The Still water Valley
Railroad greject seems to have
'.gone by the board" and this pro
posed route is worthy of the con-
sideration OF our business men,
and tt will open up a rich and fer
tile country to trade, which
will be carried elsewhere il we
fail to secure it.
What do the people of Eaton
intend to do in relation to This
road, do they propose to have 1t
run around US and leave US out
in the cold. For the paltry sum
of 81 600 dollars a mile, when
will we get some live men in ON
midst, if So 900 a be expended
for a day and night amusement
in a Circus. Can't $4,000 mile be
raised il the county torthis road
When it is to late, then they Will

in sharp terms the Democratic platform
of Ohio on the financial and public debt

that the Lord had anything to do with
politics. Now Of al men, that politi-
clan, if he believes at all in an overruling

A GOOD THING-Our attention has
been called to new book for children
just published, by j. S. Goodman & Co. ,
of Chicago, ILL.,, and to be sold by agents
only, entitled, bright Side Stories, +"
Gems of beauty in Prose, Poetry and
Picture. It isreally magnificent col
lection of Juvenile Literature. Under
the guise of pleasant stories-just long
enough to hold the attention of the
young reader unweariedly to the end, as
much valuable information is gained as
would require many weeks of hard study,
from ordinary textbooks.
These beautiful Gems of Prose,
Poetry and Picture, have been gathered
with discriminating hand, and no child
can read them without being wiser, bet
ter and happier. A child's book is a
new feature in the subscription book
trade, and opens up a new field of use
fulness 20 agents.
We cannot doubt that both publishers
and agents will reap rich harvest, as
every parent will cordially welcome such
wholesome, mental and moral food for
their children, and we presume agents
will find that parents generally are more
ready to purchase good books for their
children than for themselves.

tack on US personally. which by its style
and contents indicates clearly who is the
author of it. Oat of respect for the
highly esteemed family and relations of
this seribbler we do not wish to give him
what he 50 richly deserves in return, but
would not only kindly advise the editor
of the Plot. to be careful hereafter to

distinction. Dir. Bollmeyer has certain
u no good reasons for publishing such

avoided to reflect on lis conduct in the

Ed. TRIBUNE, Dear SIR Permit me
through the columns Of your valuable
paper pro6ono pubzico to call the atten-
ton Of Assessors to their imperative duty
in regard to the assessment Of dogs.
The Legislature at the asst annual SEES
sion hit the nail on the lead in this one
particular. The law is {. good one and
should be enforced in every town in the
State. There are throughout this coun-
ty hundreds of worthless yelping purps
kept for no earthly purpose except to
annoy and disturb the passer by. some
families keeping no less than three or
five There are several instances Of this
kind even in this we'll regulated place,
at the same time those same families feel
too poor to keep even one COW, or pig.
The law now requires the owner, or
any person keeping or harboring any dog
OF dogs, to pay two dollars per head, for
keeping or harboring every male dog,
and three dollars per year for keeping or
harboring every female dog.
I for one feel quite willing now, to put
up with the annoyance of three dogs,
yelplng and swapping at my heels, now
that the keeper Of such dogs are requir-
ed by law to pay for keeping such worth
less brutes, and the money so collected
is to go for the support Of the common
schools in the town and in the school
district where such dogs are kept

THE CoLLIsIoN.-The brig c. L.
Hutchinson and the schooner Helen
Blood had serious collision off Wolf
River. last Wednesday evening, April
10th. The Hutchinson struck the Blood
forward of the mainmast, carrying
away her jib- boom and bowsprit, and all
the head gear. The two vessels were
riding each other about an hour and a
half before they could be cleared The
Hutchinson came to off Two Rivers, where
she rolled her foremost out of her, which
fell inboards. knocking hole in the deck.
She was towed in here on Thursday last
in rather dila pidated condition. The
Hutchinson will be re-rigged into a
schooner.
The Blood, after the collision cast
anchor, having lost her boat and being
injured otherwise, had to saw away hel
mainmast to prevent 1t from falling in
boards, as it had no support left to pre-
vent it. The tug Kitty Smoke went tt
her assistance on Friday and both yes
sells are now undergoing repairs at Han
sons and Scove's shipyard.
The brig Montezunao of Chicago, laden
with lumber from Menominee, went
ashore last Tuesday morning, about nine
miles north of Two Rivers The brig
came to an anchor in head wind, on
Monday eve, and trying to get under
way again she did not mind her helm
and drifted ashore The tug Kitty
Smoke went to her assistance Tuesday
afternoon and when reaching the wreck,
found her in bad leaking condition
The tug was obliged to return to this
port after steam pump, after which she
proceeded to the wreck the second time,
and succeeded in getting her of. by noon
on Wednesday with only the loss of a
portion of the vessels deckload. and tow
ed her into our harbor yesterday after
noon.
