The Ruaanrarger Case.

The examination in the famous pOis-
oning case at Columbus has ended. as
every one has recently fOreseen that It
must end, in the honorable discharge
Of the accused lady. Not a suspicious
circumstance has been brought home
to her. One Or two witnesses who teS-
titled to,trivial incidents supposed to
indicate that she had no love for her
first husband have been discredited by
their own behavior on thestand. Mrs.
Colburn is represented to have been an
affectionate and faithful wife. trusted
by her husband to the very hour Of his
death; while the instigatOrs offlle pro-
|secutiOn bear, whether justly or not,
an unenyiable reputation. Add TO all
this that four years were allowed 10
pass otter the death Of Buffenbarger be-
fore the Charge Of poisoning was made,
although the prosecutor, Thompson,
declares that be knew from the first
that the old man was murdered: and
finally that the family physician testi-
fes distinctly that the death was caused
by consumption, land was not attend
ed by any symptoms of farsenicd pois-
oning-aad we have an array of facts

most direct evidence. could have over

But there isa mystery in the case
which has still to be unraveled. Four

lclear that ithad nos been given as a

theory of the defenselwas that. it had
been injected into the body ,-fter death
for the purpose OF laying she founda-
ltion of the present t1ial. 1t is colceiy-
able that this might easily have been
done before burial, and on that suppo-
sition we have only to account for the
fact that. whoever devised this devilish
scheme waited so long before taking
the next step. But if Malay Thomp-
son was the man, it is easy to U. der
stand why he should not have found il
convenient just then to bring himself
prominently before the pub
lie. There was no insuperable difficult
ty, however, n,opening the grave al

evidences of disturbance were discover.

He speaks in terms of commendation
of temperance men, and wishes them
"God speed" and declares himself in
favor OF unqualified merciless prohi-
bition," but does not think it wisdom
to nominate separate temperance
ticket in this County this Fall. He says,
to do SO would cast 'sreproach and con-
tumely upon the cause,o y and defer the
great END, that sthe temperance cause
has suffered more from unwise move
nlents than from anything. .else." we
think it has suffered more from Snoction
than from any other cause. All the
whisky ring wants is to be let alone in
their work of destruction. The Repub-
lican party, and we might add the
emocratic- we are answering the
Republican Prohfbitionist now-as a
party organization, gives no prom
inenee to the temperance question and
has no plank on which prohibitionist
can stand. Individual Republicans
may be full Of sympathy for the tenn
perance cause, and favorable to prohi-
bition, but their sympathy wfll avail
nothing, while their party prejudices
areStronger. Your Pease Tp. cores
pondent, no doubt, thinks himself a
friend to prohibition when he interpress
the language of our call to mean him.
but we fear he nlistook its meaning.
We think he has in him, the elements
of prohibitionist, and hope that he
may ere long, be soundly converted,

not receive hiInE into full membership
into our party. How long would il
take to build up prohibition party ifI

we all voted with parties that recog-
nized no temperance plank in their
Platform. We have too much party
spirit, and slavery to party. We want
to see the people enfranchised and dis
Ienthralled. Parties are means-in-

None. Those who voted the ticket

move from among Us the greatest
mental, moral and pecuniary blight OF

We think the Republican ticket of the

peranceI men than the Democratic, and
Iif any known Temperance man, on
either ticket, would publicly ayow
himself prOhibitionist, he would,
doubtless, get the nomination at the
hands of the Prohibition Convention.
Your correspondent says it will defeat
the Republican ticket in this County.
We do not know. This may be but
the cry of time-serving politician. He
may be right or he may be wrong, but
this we know, that, Judging by the
past, we are not justified in expecting
more from Republicans than from
Democratic legislators in this State, on
the subject of temperance. OF course,
some one will be affected, hurt by the
tnew party but since Prohibitionists

The Persian Famine.


London Special to the New York Herald
1 have just received some later tele-
grams from Persia. The news now re-
cent palliative statements of the Per-
sian Minister, The Persion Govern
ment has a clear interest in undertaking
the consequences of the famine, since
they have undoubtedly the result of
its own Impressive maladministration.
In Ispanan, a city with a population
variously estimated at from two to five
hundred thousand people, there have
been alreat.y 1900 Deaths. and the
n. iality has not yet diminished.
This terrible record is, however,
keclipsed by the accounts from the pro-
Yinces where the famine first resumed
alarming proportions. In Nazander-
an a very, much larger percentage of
deaths have taken place; some accounts,
indeed, say half the population nave
perished. .aa5 Is. ss7il
Throughout the rice growing provin-
ces there has been complete failure of
the crop, owing to the drought. Hope
of better reports from the sections of
the country must therefore be indefi-
nitely postponed. Large and former
" populous districts are altogether de-
serted. .asif 4 @ck eaf.. 20
Disease, as might have naturally
been expected, follows in the train OF

Asiatic plague has broken out is un-
confirmed, but in its stead the cholera,

Woman who became addicted to the
use of intoxicating beverages are more
difficult to cure than men. AT the Syra-
cuse Penitentiary, where, of. course,
whiskey is not to be easily had, those
female convicts who have the run of the
kitchen steal the keys of the sto-ero
and thuse help themselves. When this
fails, as a last resort they drink vinegar
and follow it up by eating sugar, BY
this means they contrive to get,satisfae-
torily drunk. This at least is the story,
and we suppose it is as true asT-other

The speech with which Gen. Noyes,
Republican candidate for Governor in
Ohio, opened his campaign at Celum-
bus, on the 24th August, was in refresh
ing contrast with the weak utterances
of his late competitor in the. field
Gen. Noyes has most skillfully dis
sected the motives which led to the
adoption of the sso-calIed New Depar-
trlre resolutions, and has exposed the
insincerity and deceit of the men who
professed to approve them. His ex-
animation, and that of Senator Sher-
man, into the financial schemes of the
Democratic party will set before the
thinking people of Ohio in their true
light the monstrous fa1lacies with which
the leaders of that party have endeav-
ored to beguile. them. Gen. Noyes's
speech is that Of a sensible man speak
