Children's Fears.

The objects that excite the fears Of
children are often as curious and unac-
countable as their secret intensity.
| Miss Martineau told me once, that "a
special object of horror to her, when
she was child, were the eolors of the
prism, a thing III itself SO beautiful, that
bit is difficult to conceive how any imagi-
nation could be painfully impressed by
it; but her terror OF these magical colors
was such that she used to rush past the
room, even when the door was closed,
where she had seen them reflected from
the chandelier, by the sunlight, on the
wall.
A bright, clever boy of mine, by no
means particularly nervous or timid,
told me once that the whole story oil
Aladdin was frightful to him; but he
was never able to explain why 1t
made this impression upon him. A very
curious instance of strong nervous ap-
prehension, not, however, in any way
connected with supernatural terror, oc.

with the watch III her hand, till the con-
viction that she certainly should let it

possession of her that she dashed it
down, and then came in paroxysIh OF
the most distressing nervous excitement

a Former Ohtoan II, Trouble.

Topeka, KANSAS, August M.-The case
of John I. Taylor, late Postmaster at
LaCygne, Kansas, which has been be-
fore the United States Commissioner in
this city for the past week, on the charge
of robbing a registered letter, closed
this morning. He was held to bail in
the sum of $1,000 for his appearance at
the next term of the United States Dis
trict Court. The case attINcted a great
deal of attention all over the State, in
Ohio and Iowa, from the fact that Tay-
lor is grandson of an EX-President,
and was on tie staff Of General Sherman
during the war. His friends believe him
innocent, and claim that tull investiga-
tion will make clean showing for him.

Swift Ocean yoyaees.

Only few years ago the impression
prevailed among steamship owners that
for the attainment OF speed on the ocean
it was necessary to use side-wheel
steamers. The owners of the vessels
which were the first to be provided with
screws used them for purposes of econ
omy land presumed safety. 1t was as
certained that propeilers required a
much less quantity OF coal than side
wheel steamers, and in severe storms
the danger OF shipwreck was decreased,
as there~were no wheel-houses to be
wrenched and broken by the waves. The
belief that great speed could not be OBJ
talned with screws has been dispelled,
and within month two iron screw
steamships belonging to two different
lines have made the quickest time ever
attained on q western passage betwee n
Queenstown ami New York.. The
steamer City of Richmond, OF the lnman
line, left Queenstown on july Is, and ar
rived ut Sandy Hook at 1850 a. III. on
July 24 making the run in eight days
and twelve minutes, mean time. The
new steamship, Germanic, Of the White
star Line, lett Queenstown on July 3D.,
and arrived of sandy Hook at G:20 a. m.
August 7, making the run in seven days
and twepty-three hours, the quickest
tline on record.

An Actire Contradiction.

ED. STAR: Allow me to state, through the
columns of your impartial paper, that the
statements made in the Commercial and Gin
cinnati Post. namely: that MIR. Hopper, the
East End candidate for County Commissioner,
has been ''standing candidate from time i'm
memorial"-is a willful and malicious false
hood Mr.. Hopper was candidate for the
first time before the Democratic Convention
three years ago. This story about Mr.. Hop
'per's being Standing candidate was. started
by the friends of his East End rival; and
knowing all the circumstances Of the case l do
not hesitate in denominating it as weak, false
and unmanly.
To attempt to build ones self up by tearing
others down 10 a desperate expedient, and al"
ways results in ruin.
Mr. Hopper has been a lifelong Democrat,
is gentleman of responsibility. possessed OF
excellent business quali1cations--in word he
Is just the man for the times. His nomination
is almost certain. He is THE East End man.
