THEY have had great times in "Merrie,
England" over the Shah of Persia He
is near and important neighbor to Eng
lands Indian empire occupying position
between Hindoostan and Russia, the great
aggressive European power upon Asia
and that borders upon it. Cabool and
Persia intervene between British India
and Russia, and Persia extends from Rus
sia and the Caspian sea on the north to
the Persian gulf on the south. The prob
abilities are that England and Russia
will, ere long, come into conflict over
their domination in Asia.

THE Freedman's Bureau accounts are
in confused condition and the Secretary
of War has written letter to the Attor-
ney General on the subject. 1t seems
General Vincent has reported concerning
sums not accounted for and asks what
steps shall be taken to protect the gov
ernment. The Attorney General, it is
understood, holds that, under the act of
Congress organizing the Bureau, the
Commissioner and the Disbursing Officer
we're personally as we'll as officially re-
sponsibls. General Howard did not give
bond in the sum Of fifty thousand dollars,
the amount required by law, on the
ground, as he now avers, that Secretary
Stantsn said it was not necessary. The
Attorney General holds that this part of
the law is imperative, and that Howard
should have given bond. The probabiE-
ties are, that whatever may be done by
the Department of Justice, the Secretary
of War will order q Court of Inquiry, or
a court-martial in Howard's case.

THIS, from the st. Louis Democrat,
tells the story for Chicago in words SO
plain that = wayfaring man with chill
blain on his heel may read and under
stand:
"The Chicago Post is proud of the de-
linquent tax list of that city, which is one
hundred and fifteen thousand names OF
bankrupt and brokendown lot-owners, and
its one hundred million of Boston mort
cages. Every business house in the city
has an elevator and first mortgage on
each floor"

U. S. SENATOR MATT CARPENTER, of
Wisconsin, and one of Grants supporters
in that body, was one of the backpaysters
and made speech at Janesville last week,
defending his course. He whines about
"the liberty of the press" Such fellows
are very apt to think the press takes too
much liberty with them.

SOME of the farmers in our State COM
plain that while in 1860 bushel ofwheat
nominally sold for fifty cents less than it
brings now; still in that year it would
purchase seven pounds of coffee or fifteen
and half pounds of sugar; while now
it will only purchase five and two-third
pounds of coffee or thirteen pounds of
sugar. Had we solid currency the far
mer would make more money than he
does to-day, and then it would be money.

DEMOCRATIC AND LIBERAL
COUNTY CONVENTION.

The Democrats and Liberals of Stark
county are requested to meet at their

such place or places as may be designated
by the proper authority, on
SATURDAY, JULY 18TH 1873,
and then and there select delegates as
follows:

WE read that the ways of "the heather
Chinee are peculiar" but they are not the
only humans whose ways are "pecooliah'
for example, those of our radical friends
In Stark county they pretended this yeal
to nominate by "the popular vote" and
they declare March
OF New Franklin, he,
To be their nominee,
for Sheriff, when he got less than one
fourth of the votes cast
And Mr.: HookiOay too,
Went into the play too,
And ERmbled his way through,
And helped oil Perdue, to
beat Hardesty and Coates; the same Mr..
Hookway being declared nominated
though only getting little over one
fourth Of the UOtes cast ! Three Republi-
cans have pronounced against Hookway
and March as their candidates, for every
one in their favor.
But the most astounding performance
is in the nomination of Mr.. Perdue, of
Minerva, for the Senate. George Hardes-
ty, Esq, one of the best men in the dis
trict, secured 124 more of the popular
vote than did Mr.. Perdue and yet the lat
ter Is the radical nominee for the State
Senate All this shows what some polit-
ical managers think of the popular vote"
In some of the Southern States, Louisiana
for instance, we have also seen the respect
certain radical functionaries show to the
popular VOTE"
Well, the longer one lives in this coun-
try the more we ought to understand the
ways of "scurvy politicians"
WE find our farmer friends throughout
the County are well pleased with the
change for this year in making our nom
nations for county offices and for the
General Assembly. They think our tick
ct will be formed with less general trou-
BILE and commotion and be in much less
danger of prejullce engendered before
hand against the candidates. On these
they think our nominees will
start out with less hostility among our
own friends. This is very desirable of
course.
Our nominating convention will be held
in Canton, on Tuesday, July 2lst, and the
delegates are to be chosen by the friends
in each election precinct on Saturday af-
ternoon or evening, July 18th. They will
meet for this purpose at the usual place
Of holding elections and organize by choos-
ing chairman and secretary and proceed
to select delegates either viUa roce, or by
ballot as each meeting may determine.
We shall soon publish the number of del
egates to which each precinct is entitled,
and we invite from each Central Commit
teeman notices giving the hour of meet
ing and IN some cases the place of the
same. If

RICHMOND, va Nov THE German
consul in this city has received from
Strasbourg, Germany, the confession of
Hermann Rudolph Wilhelm Vollrath.

a man in King George county, Va, in
April. 1869 Vollrath was employed by
a fishing company on the Potomac. He
says he was walking in the woods. when
he met stranger, apparently Irish, who
asked for light for his pipe.
conversation ensued, during which
Volrath saw the strangers pocket book
eontaining large sum of money, and. on
the impulse of the moment, attempted To
rob him. Being resisted and dreading
the result Of the escape of his victim, he
drew a knife and stabbed him through
the heart
lie buried his victim, returned to work
and conscience stricken, threw the money
q the river He went to Germany, was
,onserlpted in the army, and is now in
n he military prison for petty offense
The confession is voluntary.
