1t was announced by posters that on
Saturday evening last the people of this
place would be addressed by o. 7. Gun
ming, Esq, of this place, and J. S. Savage,
Esq, the Democratic candidate for Con-
greSs in this district. The time come, but
the hundreds came not The tocsin was
sounded, but the people did not take the
alarm worth cent. There was, perhaps,
40 or 80 presents equally. divided as re-
CARDS politics-and listened respectfully to
the speech of Mr.. Cunning, first, and then
to the speech of the candidate for Con-
grsss.
Mr.. Savage spoke fuently, if not con-
vincingly upon his subject. We say sub
ject, for he confined his speech wholly to
the question of finance. He advocated
the total annihilation Of all the National
Banks, thus requiring them to call in all
their notes and the immediate collection
of all their outstanding debts. He did not
tell us the immediate results of this radi-
cal change in our financial system. He
only proposes to fill the vacuum made by
closing up the banks, with Government
Greenbacks. He did not tell us how the
people are to get possession of the Green
backs necessary to meet the immediate
demands of the banks against their debt
ors, when he requires the banks to close
up their business. He did not tell the
people that this demand he makes upon
the banks is virtually demand upon ev-
cry debtor in the Government to "waIk up
to the Captains office and pay your in
dsbtedness." Suppose such demand
should be made upon the debtors of the
country. how many, even of our soundest
business men, would be able to survive a
panic such as this would create in the
country?
Mr.. Savage had great deal of fault to
to find with several votes cast by Mr.
Smith in Congress, the effects of which
we do not believe Mr. Savage was able to
fathom.
His speeches in this county, we think,
will avail him nothing. If they were re-
markable for anything, it was the lack of
interest or any degree of enthusiasm he
was able to exicte in his behalf. His
effort in Fayette county was, by no means,
calculated to inspire confidence in his abil-
ity, or friends to the policy he attempted
to advocate.

Hon. John Q. Smith. at the request of
friends, addressed the citizens of this place
at the Courthouse on Tuesday evening
last Mr.. Smith gave his views in relation
to the financial system of the Government,
explaining his votes in relation to that and
other subjects, in an able manner. His
speech and his position on the great ques-
tions at issue, we fudge, were satisfactory
to his audience, SO far as we were able to
perceive, unless we except a couple of
gentlemen who seem to imagine that they
are running the Democratic party in this
county, who distinguished (perhaps extin-
guished would be more appropriate term)
themselves by 'interrupting the speaker.
Their conduct in this respect was remark
able in its contrast with that of the Re-
publicans towards Mr.. Savage, the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress, when he
spoke here on Saturday; he was respect
fully listened to by the Republicans, who,
probably, composed the greater portion of
his audience. We do not believe, however,
that the substantial men of the Democrat
ic party approve of the Interruptions made
on yesterday evening

Keeping Meals waiting.

Little things often interfere with our
comfort very much, and one small an
nOyance is for men to delay coming to
dinner when called. Sometimes they
have an hour or more of which they
9sili do before quitting and then they
go to the house to find the dinner cold
and the cook discouraged. Nothing
is more disheartening to a tired woman
than table full of dirty dishes orna-
menting the table an hour and a-half
later in the day than usual. Punctu-
uHty is u virtue that men should learn
if they are in the habit of being uncer-
tain about coming to meals. Any
woman worthy of the name of house
keeper will be regular with her meals
if it lies within her to have them so.

Judge w. j. Gilmore, Democratic
candidate for Supreme Bench, has
been on the Common Pleas Bench for
twelve years, and has decided 5000
cases in Butler and Preble counties.
The Supreme Court, in all that time,
has never reversed but one of his de-
-cisions. That's pretty good record
por Judge Cincinnati Enquirer,
Saturday.
The reason that the Supreme Court
''has never reversed but one of his de-
cissions" is, that none of them ever
got there. Most of them were revers
ed in the District Court, and remand

held not long ago, over half of his de-
cisions reviewed were reversed as the

EDS. H1RALD: Some of our rising young
Senators, who are remarkably high toned
in their character, seem to possess an in
ate desire to exhibit the beauty of their
pedal extremities to the ladies and gentle
men seated in the auditorium of Music
Hall, whenever an entertainment is given
therein. AS, for instance, ON last Friday
evening at the citizens benefit to the ac-
complished actress, Helen D'Este, these
young men, to the utter disgust of select
audience, hung their mud hooks over the
circle of the gallery. 1t may be all right,
young gentlemen, and you may enjoy it,
but it is unqualified evidence of bad man,
ners. 1t is suggested that the 1st circle oi
seats in the gallery be reserved exclusive
ly for all persons who are weary and heavy
laden, and who wish some convenient and
prominent place to hang out the "Boot
Sign" in first-class style, or. else abolish
the custom altogether, as common nui
sance. SCRIB.
