late Winnebago County duel, received tele-
gram from Rockford advising him OF the indict-
ments of the duelists. Mai. Edwards, the
other party to the AFFAIR Of hon.
O., was duly notified. and .
consultation was held as to the best means Of
thwsrting the Illinois officials. There ia \ feel
ing here that the prejudice against Edwards in
Winnebago County is very strong, and that it
would be impossible for him to receive fair
and impartial trial Bis friends have consequently
advised him to exhaust every means At hand 10
avoid trip to Rockford In accordance with
this programme, Capt. John A. Budd, Of the
Kansas City Times, who is an intimate friend
Of Mai. Edwards. called st the Four Courts

EXPENSES or THE
GOVERNOR OF OHIO.


j GOVERNOR OF OHIO.
In addition to an appropriation for sal
airy for the Governor of the State, there
is also an appropriation made for contin-
gent expenses for the Governor.
Governor Nnyes, for the fiscal year
ending November 10, 1872, drew and
used in the name of the contingent ex-
penses, three thousand four hundred and
thirty-fve dollars and eighty cents.-FOr
the fiscal year ending November Is, 1878,
he drew and used for the same purposes
two thousand nine hundred and forty
four dollars and seventy cents-making
for the two years six thousand three
hundred and eighty dollars and fifty
cents.
Governor Allen for the fiscal year end
ing November II, 1874, drew and used in
the name of contingent expenses only
one thousand three hundred and sixty
nine dollars and seventy-nine cents, and
at his request only thirteen hundred
dollars were appropriated for that pur-
pose at the late adjourned session OF the
fiscal year Of 1875,
Governor Aliens contingent expenses,
therefore, for his two years will cost the
people OF Ohio only two thousand SIX
hundred and sixty mine dollars and sew
enty-nine cents, whereas the contingent
expense of Governor Noyes for bis two
years as Governor of Ohio cost the peo-
Die of the State six thousand three hum
drsd and eighty dollars and fifty cents
So the people, by the election Of William
Allen Governor, have made saving in
the matter Of the Governors contingent
expenses of three thousand seven hun
dred and ten dollars and seyenty-ene
oents--a saving that is not to be sneezed
at. And, then Ohio has never had a
better Governor than William Allen, the
plain unostentatious farmer Of old Ross

Heaven and Heu.

1t is commonly taught and believed
that heaven and hell are two regions of
the universe, widely and forever sepa-
rated from each other by external bar
riers, into which human beings are to be
distributed hereafter, after death; and,
having once entered either OF which, in
that they are to remain forever.
Now | think all of these positions to be
unfounded. | do not believe that heaven
and hell are widely separated il space,
but that they are often close 10 each
other, so that persons in hell can con
verse with those in heaven, aud vice
versa, as Father Abraham and Dives
conversed in the parable. Nor do | be-
lieve that we are to wait until we reach
another world before we enter heaven or
hell. | think we may, and do often, 60.
into heaven and hell now. Nor, finally,
do | admit al all the pure assumption Of
theology that those who 90 into heaven
or into hell are never to come out again.
| believe that the whole gospel assumes,
by all its teachings and blessed invita-
tons, that We a rise out Of hell and 60
up int heaven; and it also assumes, by
all it's solemn warnings, that we may
sink back out of heaven into hell. For
what is hell, and what is heaven2 Es3
sentially, and in themselves, what are
they2 Primarily and essentially, they
are inward states, conditions Of the soul;
secondly, they are the external results
Of those states Heaven is love, knowl-
edge, power OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES love
guided by wise insight, and made effect
usl by unfaltering energy. Wherever
this exists, the essence of heaven exists,
for this state of soul is the image and re-
Election of God, in whom love, wisdom
and power are one. Such a soul is in
heaven, for it is in continued commun-
ion with God Such a soul makes heaven
around it, wherever il lis, for it Influences
other oper souls inevitably and necessa-
rily. And what is hell but the presence
Of the opposite spirit-willful, hard, self
isb, stubborn; wilfulness instead of
energy, stupid prejudice instead of in
sight, hard sel6shness instead of gene
rosity2 From a mean, cold, cruel soul
hell is radiated; the blackness of dark
ness goes out from it. The brutal man
carries an atmosphere ofbrutality around
him, and creates a like state of mind 10
others.-J + Clan he.

The Lash in Canada.

Toronto Leader. lst.l
On June l James Warren was SEN
fenced to three months Imprisonment
and forty lashes, to be delivered in two
patches Of twenty each, for the crime of
rape upon a little girl. Yesterday norm
ing the prisoner received the first twenty
lashes. A little after nine o'clock the
triangles were erected in the central
hall, and at $3.50 o'clock the prisoner.
James Warren, was brought from his
cell. he walked into the hall with a
firm step, and removed his coat, waist
coat and shirt, and stepped to the
triangle, to which he was hung and
strapped, so that it was impossible for
him to move a limb. The prisoners
were then called in and ranged round
three sides of the hall. There were
present the sheriff, deputy sheriff. DR..
Richardson, the Jail surgeon, and the re-
porters Of the morning papers. At
$3.50 the sheriff took the cat, which con-
sisted of nine lashes of whipcord, each
having a knot on the end, and handed
it to the executioner, who was one of
the prisoners Of the Jail. Time was
given by the sheriff, and Mr.. Ewing,
turnkey, was stationed as counter. The
executioner showed some
but on receiving encouragement struck
the first blow upon the prisoners shout
ders, high up and close to the leather
collar which was placed round his neck.
The second blow, which was delivered
with the full strength of the executioner's
arm, fell in the same place, and the ex-
ecutioner, who now appeared to have
full command of his powers, delivered
the third blow in the same locality. The
sheriff here whispered to him to strike
lower, and The next blow was given be-
low the former ones. The fifth was
given still lower, and the sixth was
struck in the same place. Up to this
the prisoner remained silent, but his
heavy painting showed that be was suf-
fering severely. On receiving the
seventh stroke the prisoner moaned, and
he continued moaning during the rest of
the punishment, and kept moving his
head from side to side with a quick me-
chanieal motion. His sufferings were
intense, his muscles we're distended, and
he struggled to free himself from the
iron grip that held him to the triangle,
as stripe after stripe the cat descended
upon his back. No cry escaped his lips.
but his agonizing moan showed what he
was suffering, and when the turnkey an.
nounced twenty his back, from the neck
to the waist, was one lived mass, red,
swollen and bleeding, every knot on the
lash had cut into the prisoner back,
producing a wound about an eighth of
an inch in length. AS soon as the pun
ishment was over the culprit was re-
leased, and, trembling in every limb, he
was led back to his cell.

TronhIer of ReporterlnI Ihfe.

AAAA0n
Newspaper reporters are too often
abused and imposed upon. They are
Woodworking, industrious men, who are
strict believers in what is understood by
the term caste, consequently we resent
the indignity cast upon our brother re-
porter of the Avalanche, who was COM
PEELED to attend the Pole Bearers picnic
at the Fair Grounds. He was, of course,
a distinguished guest, who went out to
the picnic on professional business, to
swing his Faber No. 2 pencil in the most
approved style of noting down lavish
praise, but to nothing extenuate nor
aught set down in malice. After work.
ing as a reporter beneath a torrid sun
for several mortal hours his soul reioiced
exceedingly when he heard that a fine
dinner would be spread at a separate
table for the white guests. His pencil
and his appetite we're sharpened up
simultaneously and visions OF a feast 6t
for Lucullus passed through his over
heated Imagination. When ready to in.
dulge his morbid appetite he rapidly ap-
preached the table at which his white
compatriots were seated and where,
he understood, a seat had been
reserved for him, but, horror OF horrorsl
ne discovered that his seat was occupied
by a negro wench, and she was getting
away with his dinner. The scene which
ensued resembled somewhat the follow.
ing scene from Macbeth:
THE ghost of social equality appears
and sits in the Avalanche reporter 8
place
Reporter-"The tables full"
African-"Here is a place reserved,
sir"
Reporter-"Where2"
African-"Here my good lord; what
moves your highness?'
Reporter (which of you have done
this ?"
Guests-"What my good lord2'
Reporter-"Thou cans't not say | did
it" etc. ~
The Avalanche man seeing that all
the seats we're occupied, and remember
ing his creed of caste, smiled a CHASTITY
smile and sadly retreated to a shade be
meath a tree close by, where for foul
long hours he chewed the cud Of bitter
memory and the blunt end of his Fabel

only to find his boarding house supper
over, so he had to expend all his nickels
at a snack-house for a repast, which be
described to our reporter as follows: III

no negro social equality in it,"

The FOLEY Case.

The Avalanche and Appeal legal edi-
tors are in error as to the decision Of
Chancellor Walker on the Foley case.
Although the Appeal comments no
doubt we're written by a lawyer, Chan
cellor Walker decided that had the Foley
injunction been undissolved, then the
action of the Commissionersin removing
Foley would be reached by the petition
for attachment and contempt, but as the
Injunction had been dissolved and after
ward the bill dismissed, Foley bad no
right of action in the premises, and as
Foley had appealed to the Supreme
Court, that Court alone has jurisdiction
in the case at present. 1t will be seen
that the Chancellor does not even init
mate that the Supreme Court would
grant Foley any relief, The Chan
cellor does not, according to the
Appeal commentator, "concede that the
appeal restores the injunction in full
force lin fact, the Chancellor's opin.
ion holds the opposite view Of the case
Nor does the Chancellor, according to
the Avalanche, hold that the Supreme
Court must protect the process issued in
the case" because no process has been
issued in the case by the Supreme Court
except an order dismissing an ex partt
petition for a s%upercedeas and alleging
a reason for so doing. The application
made for a superoedeas and an attach.
ment for contempt have failed, there
being no merit in them; so the case will
now be heard in September next in tbs
Supreme Court on its merits and on ap
peal from the Chancery Court which dis
solved the injunction and dismissed the
bill on full hearing.
