Current Notes.

Oldtown has chosen Plaisted delegates for
the Congressional Convention in the Fourth
District, and Abbot and Shirley have gone for
Powers.
An Ohio paper has discovered that Pendle-
ton is the Ensign Stebbns of resumption-in
favor of the principle, but "agin its enforce
ment.'
The Cincinnati Gazette says that Gov. Al
len is losing ground every day. His own
speeches are telling against him with great
effect. Such addresses as he made at New
ark and Gallipolis are driving Democrats from
him all over the state.
Having at last obtained full reports of Gov.
William Aliens GalIipolis speech, the New
York World taxes the venerable man with
willfully misleading the people of his party
and state," and intimates without much cir
cumlocution that he is hoary-headed old
demagogue.
The Washington special of the Boston Ad-
certiser says that all the Cabinet desire that
Mr.. Delano should resign, that he went to
see the President, when he received notice
that his resignation would be acceptable, and
said he would make it disagreeable generally
for his associates if removed, but finally beg
ged not to be ousted while the investigation
is going on.
The youngstown (O.) Register has more to
say of Judge Kelley's recent speech on the
currency at that place: "It was in spirit
plain Communism, undisguised robbery, a
clear proclamation of war Of the poor upon
the rich, OF the wasteful upon the provident."
The Portland daily press., 1875-07-27
TERMS $500 PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE.

This cry against them (the national banks)
of monopoly instead of ceasing by the passage
of this bill which looks to making bank paper
the only paper currency in the country, will 0e
increased perhaps tenfold. The consequence
VIII be that the other school of currency men,
those who insist that the only paper currency
shall be government currency based on the
credit of the government, will insist on that,
make their platforms ON that nominate their
candidates on those platforms and go to the
country Tor a decision. There is no avoiding it.
Further on in the same address he says,
speaking of the Indiana granger platform:
Their platform demands the repeal of the
national bank law, and favors the issue of gov
ernment notes, interchangeable for bonds bear
ing low rate of interest," That is the plat
form upon which they go. 1t is what is famil-
iarly called the Kelley bill-a currency which
is never to be paid, but is simply to be inter-
changeable for bonds of the United States at
lower rate of interest, under the idea that by
such currency you may reduce the rate of in
terest to as low figure as you please. The
bill to which alluded believe makes the rate
of interest 3 65 per cent /; but with equal logic
it might have made it of per cent. The
logic of it would be that you may by making a
BOND convertible into currency and the curren-
cy reconvertible into bond fix the rate of in
terest in commercial country simply by fix
ing the rate OF interest that the bond shall
bear; for if man has bond all he has to do
IS to go and get the greenbacks for the bonds,
paying per cent. interest only. All he has got
to dolls turn it into greenbacks, and his money
costs him but of per cent. So the logic of it
is that it is in the power of legislation absolute
ly, by means of this convertible bond, to fix
the rate OF interest just as low as you please.
That Is the favorite idea with large and grow
ing party in this country, that you are to have
that wholly irredeemabie currency, except re-
demption in the bonds of the United States,
which signifies perpetual debt of the United
States.
The Indiana granger platform of 1874 is in
effect the Ohio Democratic platform of 1875,
and the 'large and growing party" which
favors "a perpetual debt' is the Democratic
party.

THE temper of the ''howling mob" of in
fationists at Gallipolis the other day is indi-
cated by the devices on the banners which
they bore. The Cincinnati Enquirer thus
speaks OF the transparencies:
Nearly every town or township coming in had
its banner, and some of them were strikipgy
original. Among the many the following few
are noteworthy: jackson, $25, 900; Grant, $780,
600. You pay your money and you take your
choice" 1--WE are Sdns-culotteS because Wall
street has stripped u.s. ''Let Grant and the
grasshoppers skip out together" "Public prop
erty strangles in the grasp of the money kings
I'VE prefer the rag baby to the golden calf"
"The World demands specie payment; so did
Judas Iscariot." "From subsidized press,
the New. York World, the flesh and the devil,
good Lord deliver u.s. money makes the
mare CO." "West Virginia greets Ohio's gov
ernor-a thousand blessings on his head. :"
"Greenbacks are the governments offspring,
and must not be disowned." "Greenbacks saw
ed the Union, and let them avert starvation" !"
UNITED, the West and South rule forever"
"Greenbacks, the motive power of progress"
"The nations credit, backed by her wealth. is
the best of money"
Those who bore these banners were the
"hard-money Democrats" whom George H.
Pendleton, the great confidence man of the
Ohio Democracy, addressed in favor of hard
money but against its use.

A SPECIAL to the Adoertiser from Vassal-
boro says that Friend John D. Lang of that
town, member of the Indian Peace Com
mission, who is charged by the New York
Tribune with uDlawfully exacting pay from
the government for his services, affirms that
he is wholly innocent. For the last forty
years he has devoted large part CT his time
to disnterested efforts for the amelioration of
the condition of the Indians. In no case has
he ever received one cent beyond his actual
expenses, and has often paid large sums out
of his own pocket. His friends there are ex-
tremely indignant that gentleman of his
age and philanthropic services should be sub

Isemarkable surg1cal OperatIOn

Remarkable Surgical Operation.
On the 18th Of February, 1874 a
young man named Best placed a pis-
toll to his head and fred bullet into
hls brain, which remained there until
last Saturday. The young fellow, who
was only seventeen years old at the
tire, was very attentive TO a Miss
Lena Schmidt, nineteen years old.
Best's suit did not thrive successfully,
either from the opposition of the
parents or of the girl herself. How
ever, on the night in question, Best
called on Miss Schmidt. after what
appears TO have been a stormy inter-
view, left the house. A moment af
terward the report Of a pistol was
heard. and the girl rushed out to find
her lover with hole in his skull and
blood and brains OOzing from the ter
rible wound. He was removed TO his
brothers home, on Fifth street, and
his death regarded as certain TO occur
within few hours at the furthest.
Favorable symptoms set in the next
day, however, and the wounded man
continued steadily TO improve until,
after few months, he was able again
to resume work. The attendant
physician had not ventured to at
tempt the removal OF the bullet. and
surgical care was only taken to re-
moYe such parts OF the shattered
skull as from time to time were dis
charged. .
Last Saturday DIR. R. 0. Cowling
was called into the case by the at
tendant physician, DR.. Bodinc, to
assist in removing another piece OF
bone. The probe touched q large
substance which was thought TO be
the section of the skull which the
surgeons were looking for. Carefully
working around it, it was finally brought
out aud discovered to be the bullet,
which had been within the brain for a
period Of eighteen months. Although
under the influence of chlorOform the
patient visibly WINGED as the ball was
extracted. Upon coming out of the
inhSence Of the anasthetic, however,
he was comparatively free from pain,
and bis surprise and pleasure, when
the leaden ball was shown him, NAV
be imagined. Some munths after his
attempt at suicide he was married to
Miss Schmidt, and the young couple
have since lived very happily together
During Saturday and Sunday young
Best's condition steadily improved,
aud at clock this afternoon he was
still better, with every prospect Of
ultimate and entire recovery. We
learn that the operation has never be-
fore been performed, with one excep-
ceptiOn--that of Dupuytren, the cele>
brated French surgeon. Several
notable instances Of the survival Of
men who have been shot in the brain
have recently occurred, of which the
case Of Caruth, the Vineland editor.
is familiar to all readers of the news
papers-Louisoil'e (Ky.) Ledger,
