The Republican caucus in Dahlone.

The Republican caucus in Dahlone-
ga Township passed some resolutions
aud they prefaccd them with several
whereases. We cannot agree that
they were considerable in saying that
the balance of the Republicans of the
county must come up to their STAN
dard or eisc they can't 60 with them.
Such course would disintegra.e any
party and leave it at the mercy of its
opponents. We do not believe the
taxes have been very heavy, unless in
cases ofsome local taxation. We do
not believe that the salaries of nearly
all tue State and county officers have
been higher than they ought to be-
We would not be opposed to tho abol-
ishment of the grand-iury ii some
good system can be devised to Gil the
place, and we decidedly favor a return
to cur former statute for capital punish
ment, but We would be very far from
opposing Republican candidates upon
either one of these questions. II the
opposition desired to play sharp
trick, it would be to inveigle few
Republicans into just such line of
policy as is indicated by these resolu-
.tions. We can hardly think that the
Republicans of Dahlonega township
desire to dem and of the balance Of
the Republican party of tho comfy as
the price of their allegiance, that they
shall all come to their terms on these
minor questions. It is probable il
every township 10 the county was to

fully agree. We are entirely satisfied
that tho faithful and good Repub-
licans of Dahlonega Tp., did not fully
comprehend just what they were do.

A BAKED BIBLE.

There is, says the Cowier-Journal,
a Bible in Lucas county, Ohio, which,
at one time contained some very
warm Scriptural texts. 1t belongs
to a Mr.. Scheboldt, a native of Boz
hemia. 1t was formerly the proper
ty of his grandmother, who was a
very devout Protestant. During
one of those unfortunate periods when
religious prosecutions were common
in Austria, a law was passed at the
instance of the Catholics that every
Bible in the hands of the people
should be surrendered to the priests,
to be burned. Mrs. Scheboldt de-
termined to save hers, and when the
party came to search her house she
had prepared huge batch of dough
for the oven, and, taking her pre-
cious Bible, she wrapped the yield.
ing dough around it and quickly de-
posted it in the oven. Here it was
most thoroughly baked, but was
saved uninjured from the fiery fur
mace of the prissts. 1t may be said
to have been saved from the fire by
fire, and hes passed down through
several generations as a memorial
of the days when men were not al
lowed to worship God in accordance
with the dictates of their own con
sciences. 1t ought to go to the Cen
tennial as a mute witnes of the light
of other days-a light raised by
bonfire of burning Bibles.
