The Most Eloquent Man in Ohio for

From the -Chilltcothe Advertiser.
But few men of the vast throng who
attended the Convention which nominated
Vallandigham for Governor will fail to
remember the ratification meeting which
occurred in the evening. A number of
well known popular speakers had been
called out and Responded in eloquent
terms. Presently gentleman with a
red scar upon his face, unknown to al
most every one present, was lifted upon
the platform. The crowd looked at him
and then began to murmur and converse.
But the. stranger opened his lips and
few pointed sentences In clear tones gain
ed for him the attention of his audience.
He then began q speech which has had
more eulogies pronounced upon It since
than any other speech ever delivered in
Ohio. He carried that surging, waving
mass of humanity upon every sentence Of
his utteranee, as each breath Of the lorna
do sets into motion every leaf of the for
est. For impassioned eloquence, that
vast audience never heard its equal. A
man who was standing near us during
one of his most magnificent flights shout
ed, my Godl is he human?" and another
overWroughtg listener screamed out in. his
delight, For heavens sake, who Is hep
and the excited crowd repeated the ques-
ton. A voice answered: "It's JOHN
McSWEENEY, of WOOSTER, the most
eloquent man in Ohio. . And he told the
truth. Ohio contains not in her borders
to-day a more magnificent orator than
John McSweeney of Wooster - Il
Now, this is merely prelude for say
ing that as General Ewing and judge
Thurman have emphatically declined CAR
Iying the Democratic banner as a candi-
date for Governor this fall, We know of no
other man in the State better fitted to
head our ticket than John McSWeeneY.
He is not political hack He has new
er held an Office in his life, and never been
candidate for one. He is a fresh man.
and not an old stager. He is q man of
splendid character and attainments, and
IN his profession has few equals and no
superiers in the State. And what a can
Vass he would makel There is not a
county in the State that does not contain
hundreds of men who listened to his great
effort at Columbus, and the years that
have interVened have only served TO em-
balm it in a halo which grows brighter
with age. Not one of these men would
fail to carry their families and theirneieh-
bors to hear the man whose eloouence
has been pleasant memory for decade.
If he will consent to make the race. let
US have McSweeney.

DR.. WALLACE, of Glasgow, has been
paying some attention to the characters of
the mortars used In ancient buildings. and
among others refers to specimens from
the Great Pyramids, from the Island of
Cyprus, from the ruin of Athens, and also
from ancient ruins in Rome and elsewhere
IN Italy. Ina recent communication to
the Philosophical Society Of Glasgow, he
mentions the remarkable difference be-
tween them. In some edifces. as at Baal-
bee, and some ruined cities in Turkey
buildings are met with constructed of i'm
mense blocks Of stone, jointed with such
nleety that even the blade Of pen-knife
could not be pushed between them. but
without any mortar whatever. On the
other hand, the Egyptians used mortar
freely, as IN the Great Pyramid. This,
however, consists, almost wholly of gyp-
sum or suiphate of lime. A specimen of
mortar from an ancient Phenician temple
was ike that found in the baronial castles
Of England, having been made of burned
lime, hne sand, coarse sand & gravel. The
lime IN 1t had become completely carbona-
ted, converting the mass into solid rock.
The ancient Greek mortars, from ruins in
the vicinity of Athens, contained more
lime than that from Cyprus, & no gravel.
Thatfrom Hercnlaneum, Rome, and its
nelghborhood, appeared to have been made
from burned lime and volcanic ash, or puz-
zuolana. The raSrtar of the Great -Pyra,-
mid consisted principally of hydrated sui
phate Of lime, to which were added traces
Of carbonate of lime, carbonate of maRne-
STA, alumni, silica, and very small per
cent of water

A Man Hung by a Mob.


Quite an excitement prevailed at Wal
mt Grove last Monday, caused by the
announcement that Greenbury Buis had
been hung by a body of armed men the
night previous. From a gentleman who
was q member of the Jury we gather
these particulars: The deceased married
a daughter of James Brinn, respectable
citizen Of this county, with whom he lived
for some time. Last summer they moved
to Cass County, where B1is was arrested
for stealing horses, and sent to the Peni-
tentiary. In the mean time his wife's
father had taken her to his home again
and which she had left, against his desire,
to marry the unfortunate man. The Gov
ernor pardoned Buis-and, by the way,
he does good deal of that-who returned
to the vicinity of Walnut Grove, in this
county, where he had some relatives. OF
course his wife returned with him. AL
though he had been out OF the Peniten-
tlary bat about month, he and broth
er-in-law, Wood by name, were accused Of
stealing sheep and selling them to the
butchers of this city and Polk County.
They were arrested and Buis escaped,
while Wood was sent to the Hermitage
jail, where he awaits the laws delay
2 BUS was arrested last week in Barry,
md was being conveyed to Polk County
for trial He requested the guards to al
low him TO remain one night with his
wife, and they accordingly stopped with
HIM Sunday night. About 9 O'Clock body
of about twenty-five armed men rode up,
took the prisoner out, and hung him to a
tree. The guards knew not the men, and.
We're powerless to prevent the deed. The
man hung within quarter of a mile of
has home until the next evening at 4
o'clock, when the inquest was held and
the body cut down.
1t is said that he had threatened the
hives Of a number of men, and presumed
that this led TO the hanging.

.waa the memorable one of 1848, when
"the Citizen King" had to fly iReontinent-
ly to England without his shaving uten-
sils. His reign was period of corruption
in high places. The heart of the nation
was alienated from their King, and when a
trifing disturbance in February, 1848,
was aggravated into a popular rot, Louis
Philippe felt that he stood alone and un-
supported; as q constitutional King he
shrank from employment of soldiers
against his people and he fell in conse-
qnenee. He fed in disguise from Paris
to the coast of Normandy, and, taking a
ship, found refuge again in England
There was Republic once again. Lamar
tine was the man of the moment, but his
popularity was ihort-lived, and in the
general election of 1849 Louis Napoleon

M. REEAN, in his "Antichrist, !" has.
plausible theory of Nero's setting fire to
Rome. The city was encumbered with
old tumble down buildings, many Of which
were held sacred and indestrnctible BY
the people. To have tern them down
would have been direct attack on the
religious prejRdioAs. of the populace. Nero
wanted to build nsw and more splendid
city, something like Paris, but the only
way he could get the ground cleared for
the foundation was by applying the torch.

was inaugurated in the bloody and cele-

and Louis Napoleon made himself EN-
peror and strangled the infant Republic.
His career was splendid for almost twenty
years, until the fatal blunder of declaring
war against Prussia and then the gigantic
bubble of his empire collapsed. The news
of the disaster at Sedan ended the impe-
rial negigIs. The Empress fed to Eng.
land, and new form Of government

a EAsT-DYINa MAN,

At this ,Juncture it seemed as if the
CROWD would interfere, but Harding stern
ly bade them keep back and leave the men
to settle the matter In their own way.
As none cared to dispute with the gigantic
hunter, the mandate was ebeyed, though
a universal expression of horror ran
through the spectators, number of whom
were the engineers and attaches of our
own party. Still, horrible as was the
scene, no one thought of leaving the spot.
An irresistible fascination to see It out
bound one and all alike to. the blood
stained locality, But the finale was at
hand-the curtain almost ready to drop.
McGluskey, sumInoning by q supreme
effort his remaining strength, drew his
knife and began to crawl feebly in. the d.
rection of his antagonist. The latter, who
had raised himself to sitting posture.
saw the movement and prepared to meet
it. Both had dropped their, revolvers
leaving to the cold steel the completion of
the work. ~
By this time it had grown quite dark,
and to distinguish the movements Of the
eombatants required the closest attention
Anderson was clearly unable to move any
portion Of his body save his right arm,
With this he raised his knife aloft, and as
McCluskey craWled p-to-Within reach.
dealt him a terrible blow in the. neck, cut.
ting muscles and tendons and veins, and
half severing the head from the body.
THE LAST EFFORT.
8 But the effort was too much for him
and leaving the weapon sticking in the
wound, he pitched heavily forward on his
face. Every one supposed that this blow
would have instantly killed McCluskev
but, strange to say, It did not. for so great
was his vitality that before falling he
twice plunged his own knife into the BODY
of Anderson. The tale Is soon told. Nc
Cluskey lived = minute longer than his
antagonist. The dead bodies, firmly lock
ed in each Others emhrsce, were taken to
the house of Harding and laid out side by
side on the gaming table. A crimson trail
marked the path of those who carried
them indoors, and pools Of blood indicated
thes seene of the late conflict. y
There was no gaming that night. The
hunters and Indians appeared to find e1-
element enough in talking over the events
of the day without having to resort to
their usual pastime About IL o'clock
the moon rose, and the bodies were taken
out for burial. There were no funeral.
ceremonies, but Job Harding remarked as
the mufied forms were lowered into the
grave, "There go two as braYe men as
ever lived. They were buried deep, to
keep the wolves and coyotes from digging
them up, and the earth was heaped np in
