The Champion

According to the Boston Herald,
there is, or was recently, in that city
a young man, twenty-one years of age,
weighing one hundred and twenty
pounds, apparently in good hea th,
though of sedentary habits, who can
stow away more provisions at one sit
ting than would amply satisfy half a
doZtn or more men of moderate appe-
titles. At his boarding house on a re-
cent Sunday, he ate the following
dinner: A plate of soup, a whole roast
chicken, eleven large slices of roast
beef, thirteen large sweet potatoes,
eight good sized Iri>h potatoes, eleven
ear of corn seventeen dishes of to-
matoes, two bowls of grapes, thirteen
pears, and a whole squash pie, besides
four cups of coffee. When he was
done there were hfty-five dishes on
the table that he had used and emp
tied. Two hours later he was at the
Parker House and consumed a sirloin
steak, four dozen of oysters in crumbs,
and drank four cups of coffee. All
this and more he can do any day in
the week. His last landlord, after
feeding him one week, for usual rate,
five dollars, told him that he could
not board him any longer for less than
fifteen dollars a week. He dies not
boast of his capacity for eating, but
offered recently to wager that he could
eat three eight pound turkeys, with
the usual fixiDgs, vegetables, etc, at
n sitting.

Communicated

EDITOR CHRoNICLE-Dear ST:-In
your last issue is a letter from Vienna,
signed Justice" wherein the writer
conveys the idea that, during the politi-
cal campaign just closed, the Republi-
cans Of Vienna were opposed to any fair
and free discussion of the issues in
volved in the canvass; and alludes in
particular to a meeting held at the town
hall, when T. J. McLain, Jr., addressed
the Vienna Grant Club. Whilst il is
perhaps scarcely worth while to recall
the past, yet the Republicans of Vienna
do not wish to lie under such a charge
as this when the facts are otherwise.
Let me state briefly the facts. Hon.
Jon Russell, Prohibition candidats for
Vice President, spoke IN Vienna on Fri
day, charging that the 10th resolution OF
the Philadelphia platform committed
the Republican party against Sunday
and temperance laws. The ensuing
night 7. j. McLain, Jr., of Warren, ad-
dressed the Grant Club, and discussed
at length the 10th resolution, defending
the Republican party against Mr.. Rus
sells charges. There were many Pro-
hibitionists present, as it was under
stood that they should have the privilege
OF replying to Mr.. McLain.
When Mr.. McLain had concluded his
argument upon the 10th resolution, he
made a special request that any one
present who dissented from his views,
or who doubted the correctness of his
facts or arguments, should reply, or
address him any questions.
Two ProhibitiCni>ts arose in turn,
discussing some points and asking ques-
tons. Whilst the last n was on the
floor, some one whether Republican,
Democrat, Prohibitionist or rowdy boy,
I know mott cried from the back Of the
hall, put him out" To this MI. Nc
Lain said, "no, let him go on" When
they had concluded, Mr.. McLaiu re-
piled, and answered their questions in
full, and then went on 10 finish his
speech.
These are the facts, so far as this meet
ing is concerned. Whether such pro-
ceedings show a disposition "to prevent
free discussion" let the public judge.
Yours, &c, Truth.

Jay GOu,d Arrested.

New YORK, November 22--At last
the new Erie directors are able to act
This afternoon, at the suit of P. H. Wat
son, President of the Erie railway, Jay
Gould was arrested. The warrant was
issued by Judge Fancher, of the Su-
preme Court, and is based On an affidavit
which charges Gould with wiongtully
taking to his own use, while in control
of the Erie road, nine million and a half
dollars of money belonging To the Erie
stock holders. The sureties in the
order of arrest are William Butler Dun
can and William r. Travers. At $40 P.
NJ. Gould entered the sheriff 5 cfhe9 and
gave bail.
jay Gould presented himself al the
sherifrs Office, accompanied by Angus
tus SchelI aud Horace F. Clark, who had
consented to become sureties on his bail
bond. Bail being fixed at one million
dollars, each of the bondsmen justified,
whereupon Gould was released by the
sheriff. The council for the Erie rail-
way will, however, object 10 the sureties
on the ground that they should have
justified in one million each.

MEsoPoTAMIA, o., Nov. ODD, 10.
EDITOR CHRoNICLE:-The epizootic
made its appearance in our town about
a week ago, and several horses are now
sick, but none have died and we hope
the plague will not seriously affect our
business. But that or something else
has seriously affected our mail arrange
ments. For eight years previous to the
LIST of last July, our mail route was
daily from Brsceville to Mesopotsmis,
leaving here in the morning and return
ing the same day. And as the mail was
carried in a hack, the schedule of time
proved a good and satisfactory one to all
on the route. Passengers could leave
here-or anywhere on the route-and
make the morning train either way,
which made it very convenient. Since
the route vas changed to Garrettsville
instead of B%raceville the schedule of
time remained the same until one day
this week when our Post Master re-
ceived orders from the Post Office De-
partment to deliver the mails on the
evening before, in advance of schedule
time, proUidiRg no complaints are made,
and have them lie in West Pennington
over night. Complaints were made
Immediately. both in writing and ver'
bally; and last evening the mail carrier
called for the bags and our Post Master
OF course refused to deliver them up till
morning. We as citizens do not feel
disposed to have our rights trampled
upon if We al prevent it. A petition
was drawn up Immediately after re-
ceiYing the orders demonstrating against
the change, and in less than - hours
Dyer sixty INT we're signed to it, in
Guiding all of our principal business
men, and it will be sent to headquarters.
Previous to July 1stthe contractor of the
route lived in tEis town, now the present
contractor lives in West Pennington,
which fact may have something to do
with the late change. SETAB.

This troubles of the happy family
are eliminating in charges and re-
examinations as to the cause of Gree
ley's ignOminious defeat. George
Wilkes says that Whitelaw Reid did
it by belittling the dangers of Grants
reelection. New England Democrats
lay it all to Browns cholera mOrbus
fiasco at New Haven. The st. Louis
Republican knew the old COW would
eat the grindstone," and warned the
Democrats in time that a Baltimore
nomination would spoil the business.
SchurZ thinks the Baltimore nomina-
ton was all right, but regrets that
Frank Blair felt it to be his duty to
interfere with the Cincinnati Conven-
ton. We are curious to know MI.
Greeley's views about it, and we shall
watch the columns of the Tribune
with great interest.
