BLEEDING KANSAS" the home OF

has distinguished jurist In the person
Of Judge DRLaHAY, OF the United States
District Court. 1t is reported by the
Washington correspondents that the
Judge is to be impeached because OF
habitual intoxication while on the
bench, hut it seems a little hard thar
sn.b tenderness OF heart as i
indicated by the following touch
ing anecdote OF DELAHAY shout d

gress.
A person was convicted for forging
Government brands, such a. are used
IN the Qlartermaster's Department Tor
branding horses and mules. HIS resi-
de,ce was in Salt Lake VALLEY on the
stage route between that and LeaVeh,

s!eech OF the Judge was substantla!iy

Now what comfort it would be for a
member Of Congress to have his sentence
toned down in that sympethic way,
and how it would rob Imprisonment OF
half its sting OF a Credit Mobiler man
for instance could be assured that the
Warden OF the peuitentiary would Urea
him like a gentle man" To be sure,
DELAHAY was drunk when he spoke ia
the prisoner in the story, but he was
wiser than he knew and under all the
circumstances, since this little story
has been circulated, it lie doubtful
whether he will be impeached.

THE Constitutional Convention, SIT
ting In Philadelphia last week, adopted
the proposition to have the names OF
ALI the voters written on the ballots
vo,ed. In cases where the voter can
not write his own name 1t Is al'o"aole
for some qualified citizen in his d'str'c'
no. an election officer, to do the chiro-
graphy for him. This way operate
70 prsveut one class OF frauds-that OF
"ballot .box-stuffing"-but it will not
prevent the repeating and false perso
nation that played so conspicuous a
part in the Philadelphia frauds ias'
fall. The signing OF the ballot VIII
effectuslly destroy its secresy ana We
learn from some OF our Pennsylvania
exchanges that this feature will Operate
seriously against the satificatlon OF the
new Constitution when submitted to the
popular vote.

says that in the spring fashions the last
century will be initiated. There will
be skirts as narrow and tight as a lady
can inconveniently walk in, pyramidal

heels, hair arranged in the highest pos
sible style, bonnets yet higher, all with
out crinoline, without tournure, without

burglar Caught.

On Saturday morning last, about 2
O'Clock, a light was noticed in the residence
of Judge Mclean, by Mr.. Pavey, one of his
neighbors, who, knowing the family to be
away from home, concluded something was
wrong, and went over, and looking through
the window of Judge McLean's house, saw
a man, who was stranger to him, and evil
IDENTIFY had no business there. He then
went over to Mr.. Diapers and notified him
of the discovery, and went back, this time
meeting the man in the yard. He spoke
to him, and started toward him, when the
man ran. In the meantime Mrs. Pavey had
gone over to Mr.. S. w. Cissna's and got
him up. Mr.. Cissna, on going to Mr.. Nc
Leans, met the burglar running from the
lot, and threw a stone at him, but didn't hit
him hard enough to stop him, and the man
ran on out the Wilmington pike, Mr.. Ciss-
ma following, and gaining on him, until at-
ter race of about hundred yards, find
ing he was about to be caught, the man
turned on Mr.. Cissna, who snatched him by
he throat, and had him. He took his
prisoner, who was barefooted, back to Nc
Leans lot, where he had left his boots, let
him put them on, and finding Mr.. Pavey
and Mr. Draper there, they brought the
rascal to town, walked up Sheriff Millikan.
and locked him up. He gave his name as
ohm Edwards, and said he was on his way
from Kansas to his home in New York
| State. An examination was had before
Esq. Kerr on Monday, and Edwards was
bound over to court in the sum of $780,
Not giving bail, he was returned to Jail tc
wait the meeting of the court.

We had the pleasure last week of
spending a couple of days at the Ross
county Agricultural al Fair, at Chillicothe.
There was very fine showing of stock
on the ground, especially of hogs. Horses
and cattle were not in number. nor in fine
blood, above what we are in the habit of
seeing at other county fairs The show
in fruits, both in quantity and quality, was
much better than we expected to see, as
this is a poor fruit year. The show in the
various halls was better, we think, than
we have seen at any other county fair for
several years. There was great variety
of agricultural implements and manufac-
tured articles on exhibition.
On Thursday there was an immense
number of people on the grounds-more
than were ever there before. There was
a very large number present on Friday. II
is said to have been the greatest financial
success they have ever had at these
grounds.
A man named a. G. Dowell, was be-
fore Esq. Koontz on the 18th, on the aft
davit of C. G. Lawhead, charging him with
selling said Lawhead note forged by him.
self on James w. Garlinger The amount
Of the note was thirteen dollars and it was
sold to Lawhead for ten dollars. Dowell
plead guilty to the charge, and was recog-
nized to court in the sum of $780, Fail
ing to give bail, he was committed TO the
county Jail. Dowell is a cousin of Mr.
Garlinger; he is a young man of good bust
ness qualifications, and was formerly ex-
press agent on the N. & C. Railroad. Lat
terly, however, whisky has had control Of
him, and he has at last got himself into Q
position which is likely to be quite uncom-
forta BILE.
Fayette county was represented at
the ChiIlicothe Fair last week by two
good-looking men, who seemed to be il
the best humor of any men on the grounds
They were. disposed to be friendly and
shake hands with every fellow they met
On enquiry, we ascertained that each one
of them had an ak to grind; and further
| that one of their names was NJ. j. Will
Jams, and the other 7. NJ. Gray, and tha
they were both anxious to wear Judicia
robes-and that's what's the matter. 81
far as Ross county is concerned, the i'm,
preston seemed to be, down there, that i
would be which and t'other with thest
two good-looking gentlemen.
= The crowd of people attracted to town
yesterday by Forepaugh's show, was i'm
mense. We never saw Court street mor'
thickly thronged than at the time of th'
street parade in the forenoon. Every avail
able space on the pavement, at the win
dows, and on top of houses and brick piles
was occupied by the sight-seers. Itwoult
seem that all the region round abou
Washington was temporarily depopulated
and all the inhabitants were in Washing
ington to see the show. A more favorab
layout for pick-pockets and sneak-thieves
we haven't seen for long time. Th
show drew great crowds in the afternoon
and evening. n

wallace Sisters.

The Wallace Sisters Burlesque Opera
and Comedy Troup, will appear for the
first time in Washington, at Music Hall on
Monday evening next, remaining one even
ing only. The we'll known reputation of
the Wallace Sisters throughout the coun-
try, as first-class company, should insure
good patronage from our citizens. The
Portland Argus says of recent visit of the
Wallace Sisters in the city:
Those very charming young ladies, the
Wallace Sisters, appeared at Music Hall
last evening, supported by capital COM
pany for the burlesque business. The
Wallaces are very pretty, sing fairly, dance
finely and have nameless witchery in
their ways The orchestra is especially
excellent. The entertainment, we may
safely say, is one of the most pleasing tha
has happened along for many day.
