Twenty-slx years ago an officer in
Manchester, n. H., received warrant for
the arrest of u young man for selling one
glass of gin, of the value of FIVE cents.
For some reason the warrant was not
served, and was forgotten, until it
recently Came up IN overhau!ing old
papers. The ex-Constable put it in his
pocket, as curiosity, and, mot long after,
meeting in Boston the party against
whom 1t had been issued, tapped him on
the shoulder. and informed hun that he
had warrant for his arrest, at the same
time producing the document AS might
be expected, While. of course, it must be
deplored) the document was pretext
for violation of the present law against
the sale of use of intoxicating liquors.

A TALE OF LOVE, WAR AND L1MBuno.

A TALE OF LOVE, WAR AND LIMBURG-
ER CHEESE. Toledo Commercial OF
the 18th inst tells the following story:
"a German girl, apparently about %
years OF age, named Christina Xsnt,
passed through fins city yesterday, Gu
route for New York city, n here si,r cx-
poets to meet and marry her lover, Henri
Gorzman, who is expected to arrive by
steamer from Germany tomorrow. The
girl. said she had engaged herself 30
Henri four years ago In the fatherlant,
but neither hadsthe means to gOto keep
ing house, so the ceremony of marriage
was deferred until fortune should smile
iuI.on them, and each began to devote
every penny earned TO the accomplish
ment of the desired object. Soon after,
Christina s people came to this country
and settled near Chicago, where they
now are, having amassed quite coinpe-
tency from the saloon business and the
manufacture of Llmburger cheese. 1t took
them nearlya year to get fair start, as
months are necessary for this latter ira
grant commodity to cure sufficient for
the trade Just as Cnristena had got
everything ready to send for her Henri
he was called out az a soldier, and at the
fight before metz received a shot in the
left arm, which caused it to be amputated.
He applied for and received a discharge,
and as soon rs ne was able TO travel she
sent him money to pay his passage to
New York, and now goes to meet h,m,
marry him. and conduct him to Illinois,
where a partnership awaits him. Our
reporter happened to be at the depot on
the arrival Of the train in which she came
from Chicago. and learning some of the
facts in the case from German riend
who rode in the same seat with her from
Byran station, he went into the car and
asked for her story. Shs is bright,
pretty looking lass. and, no doubt,
Will make Henri good wife. Such
pluck as she has exhibited is not an
everyday occurrence, and brings to mind
the query, How many American girls
would have acted as she has dones'"

THE Washington correspondent of the
Louisville Ledger states that just previous
to the adjournment Of the first session Of
the forty-second Congress petition was
presented 10 the President, signed by eight
cen Radical Senators aud several Radical
Representatives, recommending that he re-
cognize Foster Blodgett as Senator elect
from Georgia, so as 10 give him control Of
the Federal patronage of the State. The
petitioners said they had examined into the
case, and were satisfied that Blodgett was
legally elected and ought to be seated. Now
the Committee on Elections have reported
to the United States Senate that Blodgett
was not elected according to law.

ONMARDl RIGHT ON

We would doubt the discretion of al
anxious seller who, while negotiating 8
sale, spent his time in whiting the prop
erty to be sold. So we have questioned the
policy of those who ina inc that a demon
allied Democracy would be more desirable
as political ally than a compact Organza,
ton. Such policy smacks more of hate
for Democracy than of love for country.
Every candid man among us knows that
whatever strength the Democracy may pos
sess viii be cast for the right. To strength
en- this party, therefore, instead of weaken
ing it, is The duty of every patriot. Besides,
strong Democracy will encourage such
reformers as Trumbull and Schurz, while a
weak opposition would leave them power
less, and, in selfdefence, they would, soon
er or later, re-ioin the Radical ranks. If
we would have such men join us, we must
offer them the utilization and support Ci a
strong, efficient party-not mere mas of
swaying, jarring clements. True expedi-
ency, as well as principle, dictates compact,
thorough Democratic organization.
For these reasons our voice has been
uniformly for organization. We have
listened patiently to the passiyist minority
of every shade, and their suggestions, how
ever wcll-meant, have tended only to be-
wilder, where they have had any effect at
all. Their inevitable tendency is to weaken
the party, leaving it helpless and leaving
the country at the mercy Of Radical love
feast reconciliation. To diSband the De
mocracy, or to demoralize it, means clear
field for Radicalism.
Whatever be the future, whatever be the
policy of the Presidential campaign, all
able and compact organization of the De-
mocracy can have but one result-the good
Of the country. Our cry is, therefore, On
ward Right on!
