The State Board of Equalization reassembed
at Columbus on Tuesday after an adjourned ses-
sion to spend the Holidays at home. Their ses-
sion seems likely to be an extended one, they
having got through with butten counties up 10
the present time. While each member seems
determined 10 reduce the rates in his own coun-
ties, it seems quite difficult to fnd where to add
the amount Of reduction.

Those whom public outery had branded
with infamy had become Captains and
Colonels; they sat in state on the
boulevards, surrounded by their
courtesans, and thence dictated their
laws to the public officials. The type of
this class was Raoul Rigault, who could
never find enough braid to ornament his
tunic and his kept. He might be seen
almost any evening at the Gymnase
Theater ogling the actresses, who trem-
bled before this vain and cruel despot-
ISM Between the acts he seated him
self on the pe1ron, surrounded by his
officers, while orderlies arrived every
minute to announce to him that his
sinister commands had been executed,
The soldiers of this army, commanded
by such chiefs, were just what might
have been expected-men led away by
the worse instincts, criminals Of every
description Paris contained no less
than $4,000 former frequenters of the

first signal, and, unfortunately, also, a
crowd of workmen, excited by the fine
promises, intoxicated with alcohol, poi
soned in mind and body, vicious fami-
lies, plunged in every kind Of wicked
ness, women without modesty children
prematurely perverted. The whole Of
this hideous crowd, knowing no restraint
but force, the refuse of France, the scum
of all countries, once masters of the
streets, had developed all their perverse
energies, and had arrived at the favor
able crisig for the designs of the revolu-
ton and of universal negation.
Such were the instigators the instru-
ments, and the soldiers of this sedition-
the most formidable and the most Grim
inal that has ever been seen in history.

Anecdote of George Nv.

His late Majesty George ~ is the
hero of the following anecdote:
Peel went to Brighton to inform the
King of the death of the Premier, Lord
Liverpool, and had some difficulty in
checking the grief of the father of his
people, whose anxiety for the welfare of
the State was intense and fearful. He
succeeded, however, in dispelling his
fears for time and left him tranquil.
In the course of the night, however, a
servant went to the door of the Home
Secretary, to beg that he would 60 down
to the King at once, without waitiHg co
dress himself, as His Majesty was again
taken seriously i'll. Peel promptly obey
ed the summons, in his dressing-gown
and slippers, and found the King un-
questionably worse than he had ever
seen him before, and harping upon the
difficulties with which he was threatened
out of which, he declared, there was no
possibility of escape. He proposed that
Peel should write, without a moments
delay, to the Duke of Wellington, and
summon him to the Pavilion. Peel as
surred the King that there was no neces-
sity for such extraordinary hurry, and
prevailed upon him to wait till the next
day. when he would be more calm, and
better able to determine on the most
desirable course to adopt under the emer-
gency. The King consented to this
adjournment and made protestations of
unilinching confidence in the Duke of
Wellington and Peel, confessing that,
with two such Ministers by his side, il
wonld be culpable in him to despair.
He embraced Peel warmly and went upon
his shoulder; when suddenly, in the midst
of his excitement and protestations of
attachment and confidence, he broke of.

Paris Correspondence London Iimes.l
The principal Generals of the Com
mune were foreigners-a fact which has
caused unreasonable surprise. They
alone could furnish men of certain
ability and tried military knowledge.
Men who have no longer any nationality
are the natural soldiers in all bad causes.
No French officer would have dishonered
his sword by accepting a prominent post
in war so impious. There were, how
ever, two exceptions. Cluseret is a
Frenchman by birth, but, having been
expelled from the French army, he won
his promotion in America by abandoning
his nationality. Rossel is Frenchman,
too, but he soon discovered that, instead
of being in a center Of revolution, as he
had believed, he was in a den Of robbers
II will perhaps be known hereafter if his
arrest by the Central Committee had not
other motives than mere suspicion. The
other military chiefs Of the revolt were
men capable of every crime, and fa-
miliar with every species OF shame.
The greater number were of that class
of persons whose profession no more

out fear, they had thrown themselves

The correspondent of the Cleveland

rial excursionists to Cautauqua Lake,
and spent the Sabbath, thus writes TO his

Sunday in Pittsburg is about as quiet
as that day can possibly be made by the
enforcement of stringent laws. Saloons
and all places of public resort for amuse-
ment are required to be closed. The
proprietors of such places, in view of
the heavy penalties inflicted for viola
ton of the law, look well to the closing
Of front doors and windows; but know
ing ones assert that three distinct raps
at any back door will verify the Scrip
tural injunction, " Knock, and it shall
be opened" The sale of cigars by drug
gists is also prohibited by law on Sun
day. Your correspondent had some DIFF
ficulty in obtaining his favorite weed
while oHt on short tour of observation,
though the drug stores were open with
soda fountains in full blast. Having
assured the druggist that myself and
companion were from lake cities, and
that he need not anticipate trouble, the
cigars came forth. This druggist had
reason to be cautious, as he had to pay
a fine of twenty-nine dollars Zine and
costs) the week before for selling cigars
on Sunday. The Catholic churches
seemed to have the largest congrega-
tons, the large Cathedral near the court
house being crowded to its utmost ca
pacity. Street cars commence regular
trips about nine o'clock. They are not
patronized to the same extent as in
Cleveland Our magnificent streets,
hanked on either side with trees and
handsome residences, will account for
the difference in business between the
street railway lines of the two cities.

THE ELECTION.
For County Judge and township ofhcers,

The election Yesterday for County Judge,
Suneryisors and township officers, was
marked By considerable interest, especially
for the first named Office. The Republicans
were well organized, and were aided by the
closest and hardest work possible; and, if
they did not elect their Judge, it is no fault
of their own. In this township the Repub'
licaus polled their full vote, while not over
two-thirds of the Democratic voters came to
the polls, enough being absent from the city
or staid away to give the township to the
Republicans by an average majority of sew
enty-Gve. Here, at the home Of both candi-
dates for County Judge, whore both men
were well known, the Republican candidate
is defeated by l68, while every other man on
their ticket is elected. 1t is a significant
condemnation of MIR. Guyer, and demon
stretes his unpopularisy and inoompetency
The same is true in Moline township, where
instead of polling the four and FIVE hundred
conceded republican majority which he con
idently expected, he only has 254. Agar
the Union, which has persistently slurret
and vilifed Mr. BlAnding since his name
came before the people, and has wilfull,
lied about him, sees the popular rebuke til
people have given 10 the disreputable at
tempts to bolster up an unpopular candi
date, now, in commenting upon the result
says:
"Mr. Blanding is an upright, intelligen
gentleman, of affable manners, and one o
the most prominent members of the Mason
ic fraternity in the west"
For any man to thus slur Masonry by at
tributing to it petty dickering in politics, is
to say the least, very contemplate, espe
cially assboth candidates are Mssons. WheI
paper so far forgets its dignity as to ex
cuse the unpopularity of its candidate OF
such grounds, we cannot refrain from plac
ing it in the category of tricks'ers.
At this writing it is impossible to correct
ly state the result. The returns as far q:
heard are as follows:
