Kullman, the man who attempted
to assassinate Bismarck, was brought
to trial at Berlin on the 20th ult
He admitted having used bitter
words against Bismarck, aud having
called him the maddest enemy OF
the church. He visited Berlin last
Easter to kill Bismarck, but learned
he had gone into the country. He
then repaired to the watering place
where Bismarck was, and as his car
riage approached hurried forward
and fred at him. He denied the
iinputation that he acted frivolously
and said he was cool throughout. He
was found guilty, rs charged in the
indictment, and sentenced to inn
prisonment for fourteen years in the
house Of correction, ten years sus-
pension of civil rights and police sur
yeillance for life.

The Democracy are boasting that
they will have a majority in the next
National House of Representatives.
A Democratic House would be q
strangely unhappy family, their par
ty platforms in no two States agrees
ing. The New York Graphic, not a
Republican paper, thus portrays in
brief prospective the infelicities of
the family:
But what happy family this DEM
ocratic Congressional delegation
would be! There would be the rag
money men of the west, and the hard
money men of the east. The White
Leaguers Of the South would sit side
by side in the kingdom with the fierce
War and Union-savlng Democrats of
the North. The Indiana Repudia-
tionists would clasp hands with the
New Workers, who would pay the
whole debt in gold, "even If it took
the last nickle." The Anti.monop-
olists of Iowa and the Changers of
| Wisconsin wonld embrace the rail-
way capitalists and attorneys of Mass
achusetts and Pennsylvania it would
be funny company, and only Mr..
Sunset Cox, the humorist Of the
House, can possibly describe the COM
bination ofincopgruities and its effect
on the rasing Of wooi ard the dev6l-
opment of the Engfisis language,
But the result OF such ragtng ana
bobtail majority on the future of the
Democracy would be as fatal as its
best enemies and worse friends can
possibly wish. The party can devise
no more expeditions and easy meth
od Of committing hari-kari and elec-
ting Republican President in 1876.
The advocates ofthe third term have
only to turn to and pack the next
House with Democrats to gain their
end.
The Anti-Monop ard Dem Scratic
papers don't agree rs to the political
status Of Ainsworth, whom the
Ants Of the Sd Iowa District have
elected to Congress. The Ottumwa
Democrat says he is Democrat, and
will coalesce with the Democratic
members from Ohio, Indiana, New
/ n
The few Anti papers that still stick
to the Anti-Monop name and con-
cistently contend, as before the cleo
ton, for ascontinuance of the new
party, condemning both OF the old
alike, protest that AinsWorth IL not
a Democrat. OF course Evans is cor
rect. Aiasworth will remain what
he has always been, a Democrat.

A Lucas county minister got into
trouble with a family in his pastos-
ate, couple of years ago, but on SOL
emn promise OF amendment made at
the mouth OF the husbands revolver,
the matter was at the time suppress
ed. Now his propensities " have
got him into trouble again with the
same household; the wife at once
told her husband, and the husband
told the church, and the church told
the minister to leave-and he left the
church and promised to leave the
country.

The Cause OF The Republican
Defeat I'm Ohio.

At Cleveland, Ohio, when the re-
suits of the late election became
known, the Democracy held a great
jubilee. Among other speakers
Hon. III. b. Payne, the Democratic
Congressman elect in that District,
was called to the platform to tell the
Democracy why they should be
happy, and what were the causes
which had eliminated in their vic
tory and his own election. The fol-
lowing are some of his utterances,
as reported by the Democratic press !:
You are feeling very happy this
evening, and this Joy comes up, am
sure, from the very bottom of your
hearts. Rejoicel i say again, re-
joice and be exceeding glad, for We
have reason to be joyous
Now for the reason. Mr.. Payne is
certainly competent to tell the reas-
on, and thus he does it:
at is evident that the main
ground Of hostility to the Republi-
can party in QAio was the temper
ance crusade and the wholesale pros
ecution of saioon-keepers by the
Temperance League. For this and
the temperance plank in the State
platform it was determined to give
The Republicans a stinging rebuke.
Crusaders will henceforth find cold
comfort in Ohio"
Republicans were beaten because
they insisted upon enforcing the
statutes againt the saloon-kepers.
And now what may the temperance
people of Ohio expect? They "will
henceforth find cold comfort" says
this Congressman elect. This Is
equivalent to saying TINT the laws
against liquor-seiling sllali not be en-
forced end that they shell be re-

1t is the boast of the Democracy at
st. Joseph, Missouri that they hold
the honor Of having furnished the
rope that hung John Brown. And
now they have the honor Of having
nominated man for Congress who
was humble and candid enough to
admit, in accepting, that the con-
ventioD might have nominated a
"more fttener man" OF such, they
tell us, shall be the next Congress.

Our neighbor Mccormack, of the
Democrat, is "such funny mani"
It is ever so jolly to punch HIM q
little occasionally with sharp stick
and see him squirm and rage and
tear his hair, and hurl volleys of
laundering anathemas and naughty
words and ugly names at the wicked
man Barker who gives him so much
trouble, and at the men of straw
that he always keeps about him to
be pelted when he is cross. 1t is 90
easy, too, to make him take tan
trum, Just before or after election.
He takes his tantrums with almost
as much regularity as he does his
daily bitters, and If he happens to
neglect his tantrum we remind him
by gentle poks in the ribs, or by
shaking red rag before him, and
his frenzy comes on at once. You'd
think he would hurt somebody; but
he won't-it's only his way. He
does sometimes frighten people who
don't know him. They think him
an Australian cannibal escaped from
some travelling menagerie and
ready to devour half-dozen some
bodys raw for break fast. They run
to find the Marshal and arouse the
town, and are surprised when the
first man they meet laughs and tells
them: "Never mind; Mac has one
of his tantrums: he'll be quiet by
and by"
We thought last week 1t was time
to stir Mac. up, and accordingly
pointed out some of his incorrect
statements. As anticipated he re-
spends with magnificent display OF
fury, and showers upon US rain OF
elegant and flattering language like
this: ....
"The self.important blow-hard
who filings filth in the JoURNAL;"
"little, selfish soul )" "silly and en-.
vious old dotard )" "puny soul -
hound" "greatest liar In Iowa
journalism" "Credit Mobilier or
gam" "femele suffrage organ" )"
"Sanborn fraud organ," " back pay
thieves organ" dwarfed SOUL"
"venal gang Of official thieves"
"dynasty Of official robbers" etc.,
etc.
And this Is the sort of cood he
gives his readers when he has tan.
trum, aid they pay for it by the year
just as IL 1t were good and whole.
some news and dignified and in.
structive reading. Two or three col
umns of leaders OF that sort per week
in the family ought to make them
all Democrats. Such pure language
from the pen Of our State Senator Is
of course d matter Of pride to every
citizen of the county he represents.
Such editorial wisdom and high
moral teachings should secure re-
nomination for the Senator from
Marion. His style is SO faultless and
sweet that he should be employed to
draft all our statutes. Johnny is
"such funny man."
