The President appointed such
wounded soldiers as Longstreet, Mos
by and Atkinson to important and lu-
crative officers but the Radical hounds
didn't set up bowling on account of
it. Grant didn't sign the bill to equal

nothing in all that TO shake the conf
dence of these canting hypocrites and
demagogues in his administration.
They are very tender of the Union

SOME of Governor Hayes friends are
very indignant at him because he fail

The inaugural address Of Governor
Hayes will be found on the first page.
There is nething of very extraordi-
nary character about the document,
but it is conmendable for its brevity
and for the absence of any thing like
clap-trap and demagoguism in it. Fol-
lowing in the steps of his distinguish
ed predecessor, Governor Allen, he
urges upon the Legislature economy
and retrenchment in the public ex-
penditures, which, If our soIons shall
well and truly observe will entltle
them to the thanks of tax-burdened
people.

THE Republicans of the Dayton district
seem to have trouble in securing can
didate for Congress, since Mr.. Craighead
declined the nomination. Hon. Lewis
B. Gunckel declines to be a candidate,
and our friend Bickham, of the Journal
also thinks there is more glory in publish
ing a paper than in running for Congress,
and he will not allow his name to be
We imagine the true reason of so many
declinations is to be found in the fact
that John A. Mcmahon is such hard
man to beat that no one is willing to
make the fight against him. The Re-
publicans of the Dayton district were
not so wont to be so modest wheh Con-
gressional honors were at stake. 1t has
usually been one of the hardest contest
ed districts in the State, and has been
the scene of many vigorous political
battle.-C0lumbus DISPATCH,

In 1870 there were in Mississippi 1884,
$40 whites to 445,000 blacks. Majority
of blacks 6051l. The black majority
was considerably larger at the last cleo
ton, on account of the exodus of large
number of whites to Texas, and the in
coming of about $4,000 blacks on account
of intimidation in Georgia and Alabama.
Yet the DemocIacy carried the State of
Mississippi. Is there man in America
so stupid as not to know how and why /?
Ohio State Journal, P. 0. Grant-Hayes
organ.
We hope there is no "man so stupid
not to know how and why" The Freed
mans Bank swindle, that robbed the
colored people all over the South, did
much to disgust them with the leaders at
Washington. This bank, too, had bran
ches over the South, helping to gather
in the hard earnings of the freedmen"
Is it any wonder the Democrats should
carry Mississippi after all this sad exper-
ience? The negroes of the South are be-
ginning to see who are their real friends.

OBITUARY.
MISS BETSY N. COWLES.

Onthe 18TH, ult. Miss Betsy M. Cowles, "a
prominent and well known lady of Ash
tabula county, died at her residence, in
the "old homestead" at "the Center" in
Austinburg, in the sixty seventh year Of
her age, after an illness of one week.
In The death of Miss Cowles, the COM
munity in which she has so long resided
has lost shining light, a woman who
graced alike all social circles, from the
most cultivated and well-to do down to
humblest, and one who has endeavored
in her sphere and in her quiet way to
elevate the unfortunate and down trod-
den.
Miss Cowles was born in Bristol, Con-
necticut, where her father, the Rev. DR..
Giles Hooker Cowles, was pastor of the
Congregational Church. In 1871, while
she was still an infant, he accepted call
to the pastorate of the church in Austin
brrgh, and emigrated to that place with
his family, consisting of his wife and
eight children, the journey being accom-
plished in thirty days, in carriage and
two wagons. DR.. Cowles was the first
settled pastor in Austinburgh, and he
erected the first church ornamented with
a steeple on the Western Reserve, if not
in Ohio.
Miss Cowles prepared herself for the
higher walks of teaching by graduating
at Oberlin some forty years ago, Since
then she has had charge of the upper
grade of schools, among them the young
ladies department at Grand River Insti-
tute, the Union School at Canton, Ohio,
and the Seminary at Delhi, New York.
During her career as a teacher, ending
about 20 years ago, she showed herself
to be the same kindly and genial in
structress to all under her charge, and
literally made herself the companion of
her pupils; consequently she was looked
up to more as a mother or an aunt, and
it was this amiable trait in her character
that caused her to be called blythe loving
name of Aunt Betsy"
After the funeral exercises were over,
the remains we're inferred in the Pioneer
cemetery at the Center, in the midst of
five generations other kindred whom she
had loved and who had loved her.
GeVeland Leaaey.
During the earlier years of the Canton
Union School, Miss Cowles had charge
of the Grammar department, Her noble
and majestic bearing, and high qualities
as a teacher, are stillremembered by all
who had the opportunity of knowing her
power in the school room. AS teacher,
she was up to the times, awake to i'm
provement, inspiring her pupils with a
love of knowledge and instilling in them
a spirit of progress with sentiments of
purity of thought and action. Her inAu-
ence upon her pupils was most impress
sive and valuable. In all this her own
great powers were remarkably display

A RAG-PICKER MURDERED
An Italian Stabbed in the Forehead I'M
til the Brains PrOtrude.

New YORK, August Last night a;
Paolo Tropiano, an Italian rag-picker
who is reported to be wealthy, was sitting
on the stoop of his residence with his
wife and several female acquaintances
John Lazerie, also rag-picker, who was
intoxicated, came along and insulted the
women, Tropiano resented Lazerie S
conduct by slapping him in the face, ,whel.
Lazerie drew part of a tailor's shears,
sharpened into formidable weapon, ,and
stabbed Tropiano in the forehead, inhict-
ing a wound from which the brains pro-
truded. Patrolman Farley, on hearing
the shrieks of Tropiano's wife, ran up and
arrested Lazarie, and Tropiano, after
being attended by police surgeon, who
pronounced his case hopeless, was sent
to the hospital, where he died few mo-
ments afterwards. Lazerie was intoxica-
ted when placed in his cell and persisted
in making improper remarks about the
women who were in Tropiano's company
when he was stabbed. He admitted
having procured the shears on Saturday,
and that having quarrel with some one
he ground part ofthem into a stiletto

"In him the Democracy of Stark will
have true Leader, and man who will
dIsgayS work for the best interests of the
party.
I'm order that the paper may be more
centrally located, the Office will in a
short time be moved to Canton, and we
trust will at once receive liberal pat
ronage from the business men of that
thriving city,"

we'll afford to give his reverend sue
cessor a good send off. The Leader Of

Browns, and Republican though he was,

greenback Leader.
So, 'in him, reverend Prof. Worley,)
the Democracy of Stark county will have

that we Democrats of Stark are to have
a guardian. AS the old lady says in
