GaIIia Furnace Gleanings.
Plenty of rain.
Money scarce.
The iron market is dull, and in
consequence of which, the wages OF
all furnace laborers have been re.
duced. This goes much against the
grain with our hard working men,
The ''raise' is always agreeable, but

rub,
The wheat is not as badly injured
by the severe winter as was imagined,
and the spirit Of the farmer is some.

Our friend and neighbor, Mr.. Mi
chael Shelton, has sold his farm and
intends to go west. He is one of our
daring heroes that is not afraid Of
grasshoppers.
Our winter schools are closing out
and we behold daily, some of our
teachers galloping after the green
backs.
We have successful spelling schools
sometimes in the neighborhood, and
l believe we have some spoilers that
can compete pretty well with the
Gallipolis spoilers.
There will be a sharp contest be-
tween the two parties at the coming
election. The victory will depend
upon the effort that will be made.
We live at a sufficient distance
from the river that Cheshire chunks
do not trouble us much-not even in
time of high waters-nevertheless,
we imagine that if we were to stay at
Cheshire over night and at dawn OF
day be permitted to hear the "daily
morning salutations of the Chesh-
irites," they would not have to wait
long to see us on the ''go."
Cheshire is not the only place
where the hen-roost is depopulated.
and where predatory burglars and
thieves and ''tramps'' continue to mo-
lest the peaceful inhabitants, but we
will try to endure all this with for
bearance, hut when it comes to steal
ing a mans last shirt, or his tomb
stone after he's dead, then we be-
lieve in giving them the contents OF
the wonderful egg our Woods Mill
correspondent talks about.

In memory of PERRY, infant son of J.
S. and A. z. Roach.
When the stars from out the twilight,
Looked like eyes of saints who pray
Came fond angels from kind Heaven,
Watching where our darling lay.
When the days first bushes frightened
When the hill-tops all grew red,
Then, kissing little PERRY's forehead,
Back to Heaven the watchers fled.
Through the sadness in our dwelling.
AS we bowed our heads to pray,
Came the hymns of angels swelling,
From the realms of cloudless day.
And voice more sweet than singing,
Whispered low, go, souls distressed,
Blessed are the little children
When call them home to rest"
Then, farewell PERRY, little darling;
PERRY, dear one, fare-thee-well;
He who lent thee hath but called thee
Back with Him and His to dwell.

A Dangerous Alliance.

The passage of the notorious anti
American Geghan law by the demo
cratic Legislatures law in efec'
maxine the Catholic Church the
ruling church in Ohio-is accepted
nv the Catholic press as evidence oil
an alliance, offensive and defensive,
hotween the democratic party and
the Roman hierarchy This is shown
bv the following extract from the
Telegraph, the Catholic organ at Gin
cinnati:
The unbroken, solid vote of the
Catholic citizens of this State will be
given to the Democracy at the fall
election.
We believe in the American idea
religious liberty to its largest extent
but when it comes to political al
hances in behalf of religious intol
Grafton, it is time the American mind
was aroused to contemplate the dan
ger to our free institutions which
such an alliance suggests.
In this connection, the following
comments of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, upon this secta rian measure are
appropriate:
There was one bill, however, which
the Legislature did manage to
pass into law in the closing hour OF
its session. That was Geghan's
bill in the interest of the Catholic
clergy. The Catholic Telegraph's s
menace was not without its effect.
The Legislature was given to under
stand that if it did not come up to
the support of the bill the Demo
cratic party could not rely upon the
support which it derived from that
denomination. 1t is the first in
stance in the history of Ohio where
the passage of any measure of leg
islation has been put upon distinct
lively sectarian ground, and the men,
bers dragooned into its support out
of apprehension of the loss of the
Catholic vote. The discovery is
likely to be made that however a
menace of this sort may affect the
minds of politicians at Columbus, it
does not excite the same emotions in
the hearts of the people at large;
and there will not be wanting zeal
Gus speakers and newspapers to
make powerful use of this measure in
their appeals to the people not to
put the administration of the State
a second time into the hands of a
party whose representatives lend
themselves in this fashion to secta-
rian uses.
