a Chapter from SchuTZ's life.
In 1868, when Schurz went to
Washington as Senator, he made
special efforts to secure the appoint
ment of Harman Lindemann to the
Consulate Of Lyons. Mr.. Lindemann
had been the editor of the WestlSche
Post, and had warmly seconded
Schurz's efforts to become Senator,
and had also done him service in
Wisconsin. President Grant acceded
to Schurz's request, and sent Linde-
mann's name to the Senate. "Warm-
hearted Schurz," said his admirers,
"see how in the day of prosperity he
remembers the friend of his advers-
ity." Lindemsnn was overwhelmed
with the congratulations of his
friends. In a few days it transpired
that the appointment of Lindemann
would work the removal of Gen. Os-
terhaus, who was then at Lyons.
Here was dilemma for our Senator.
Lindemann was his friend, and had
been his friend when mis- services
were great advantage, but Oster-
haus, if not his personal friend, was
a man Of commanding influence with
his countrymen. BY sacrificing
Lindemann, he could secure the
friendship and probably the infuance
of Osterhaus, a distinguished and
successful general. True to his un-
grateful instincts, and with an eye
single to his own selfish purposes,
he hastened to the President and i'm
portuned him to revoke Lindemann's
appointment. Grant hesitated, as
he had sent the name to the Senate,
where it was sure of confirmation.
''Schurz then went so far"-We
quote from the Staatszeit1ag-"as to
declare that he had satisfied himself
of Lindemann's unftness for the
place, and that it would be great
mistake to appoint him." In vain
did Grant remind Schurz that the
appointment had been made at his
special instance, and he was finally
prevailed upon to withdraw the name
Of Mr.. Schurz's friend. If Mr..
Schurz has not hsd much influence
since that time in controlling execu-
tive patronage, it may be for the rea-
son that the President has taken
just measure of the motives that
have prompted his recommends
tions.

HOW TO GO WEST.


This is an enquiry which every one should

his journey, and little care taken in exami-
nation of Routes will in many cases save much
trouble, time and money.
The &C., B. & O. R. r." running from

Routes to the West. At Burlington they con-
meet with the B. s. II. R. R. and from the
great Burlington Route, which runs direct
through Southern Iowa to Nebraska and Kan

may be proper to say word in relation to ou1
locality. Freeport is situated in the eastern
portion of Wood County, and on the line OF
the proposed Atlantic & Lake Erie Railroad.
The work on this road has dragged along
rather slowly, but we hope in time to witness
its completion. The contractors started out
this morningto complete the work near Toledo.
Our town seems to be continually improv-
ing. Ten new houses are being built at the
present time, and several more are to be con-
structed in the fall.
Crops, in this vicinity are good, with the
exception of oats, which were much injured
by the drouth.
The people of Freeport always take an ac-
tive interest in schools and churches. The
school is now taking vacation, after being in
session for nearly year.
A distressing accident occurred at West
MilIgrove, on Wednesday of last week, by
which Mr.. Kiger was instantly killed. He
was cleaning out a gun, and committed the
careless act of placing his mouth to the muzzle
to blow while he held the hammer back with
his foot. In some way his foot slipped, and
the contents of the gun discharged, tearing his
head in pieces, and causing instant death.
His funeral was attended by a large concourse
of Friends on Thursday. Mr.. Kiger was men,

izen- He leaves a wife and two daughters to

Rush r. Sloane and his Claims on the
Democracy of 5anduskY County.
The Democratic delegation of San
dusky County cast its vote solid for
Rush R. Sloane. and it is but natur-
al to suppose that they held him in
special favor for something he had
done in the past, when they would
desert such a man as Noble for him
What has he ever done to attach the
Democracy of our county to him?
He once tried hard to demolish the
L. E. & L. R'y, by getting possession
of it and tearing up the rails, thus
striking blow at our county's inter
ests and especially at the interests of
our city. Was this the claim he had
upon them? Fortunately the Hon.
C. Foster, our nominee for Congress
spoiled his little game and retained
the advantages of the road to our
city and county.
But he did another thing for
which the Democracy no doubt felt
indebted to him. and SO gave him
their solid vote. A few years ago,
when Hon. R. P. Buckland represen
ted us in Congress, he obtained an
appropriation for the improvement
of Sandusky River. Now we had
believed that every man, woman and
child in Sandusky county was in IA
vor of that appropriation, but it
seems we were in error. The Dem
ocracy of the county were not, be-
cause Rush r. Sloane was not, and
did his level best to defeat 1.-THE
Democracy have endorsed him with
a solid vote, record and all, as they
swallowed Greeley. When the ap-
preparation bill passed the House,
and went to the Senate, the Hon. R.
R. sought an audience with Sherman
and misrepresenting the facts to
him had an amendment tackled to the
bill, taking the appropriation from
Sandusky River and giving it to
Sandusky Har6or. The cheat was
discovered in time by Gen. Buck
land, and stricken from the bill
when returned to the House, and a
word of explanation with Sherman
prevented the re-insertion of Sloane's
amendment, and he was defeated in
his efforts to crush our county and
especially our city. Yet the Demo
cracy endorse him, and will by their
votes, elect him if they can. For
tunately the people appreciate him
at his true value, and will not have
the base coin when they can get the
true metal. They have the true
metal in Foster, and they mean to
keen him,

ALL over the country the soldiers
and sailors are making preparations
to attend the great Convention to be
held in this city on the 18th of Sep
tember. At Baltimore, on Tuesday
night, large meeting of the Mary
land Union soldiers and sailors was
held and number of names were en-
rolled of those who intend coming
to Pittsburg. AS proof of their
willingness to shake hands across
the "bloody chasm," they passed a
resolution to extend ''the hand of
political fellowship to Confederate
soldiers who fought against them,
exacting no condition except the cor
dial support of Grant and Wilson" "
OF course those who still cling to the
"lost cause" and hope by Greeley's
election to revive the old issue, will
not agree to this proposition, while
those who have the welfare of the
country at heart, and desire peace,
will not hesitate to accept the prof
fered hands of the Union Soldiers
