THE CAMPAIGN OPENED.-If you had
been around the big Great Western freight
depot on Atwater street at noon yesterday,
says the Detroit Free Press, you would
have seen the campaign open. Said man
sitting on a doorstep to n man leaning
against lamp post:
"What do you think hoC the nomination

reply. Ills name isn't Axe any more than
your name is Mud"
"Then what is hit ?"
"The right name of the Cincinnati can
ddatc is Hazen Wheeler"
ali guess not"
'IIi guess you are fool"
eli guess there's other fools haround

That was the commencement of n rough
and tumble fight which covered half a
block and destroyed the peace of mind OF
score OF men. They might have been fight

said he had seen the names of the candi-
dates on flag up town, and that they

Sleep Walking.

A case is related of an English clergy
man who used to get up in the night, light
his candle, write sermons, correct them
with interlneations, and retire to bed
again-being all the time asleep.
The Archbishop of Bordeaux mentions
similar case of II student, who got up to
compose sermon while asleep; wrote it
correctly, and read it over from one end to
the other-or, at least, appeared to read
it-made corrections in it, scratched out
lines, and substituted others; put in its
place word which had been omitted
composed music, wrote it accurately down,
and performed other things equally sur
prising.
DR.. Gall notices miller who was i'm the
habit of getting up every night, and at
tending to his usual avocations ut the mill,
then returning to bed On awaking in
the morning he recollected nothing of what
passed during the night.
Martinez speaks of a saddler who was
accustomed to rise in the night and work
at his trade; and DR.. Pritchard of farm
er who got out of bed, dressed himself,
saddled his horse, and rode to market,
being all the while asleep.
DIR. Blackjack, on one occasion, rose
from bed, to which he had retired at an
early hour, came into the room where his
family were assembled, convcrsed with
them, and afterward entertained them
with n pleasant song, without any of them
suspecting he was asleep, and without his
retaining, after he awokc, the least recol-
lection of what lie had done.

On the fences the grass is hung till the wind

common. The other way is TO plant posts

them the grass is hung.

Ex.Speaker Blaine and His Letters,

The following are extracts from Mr.
Blaine's speech in the House on the 9TH:
There has gone forth the idea or impression
that because | would not permit that man or
any man, when | could prevent it, from hold

and made public Does ii imply quilts Doe,

of weakness, that man will protect his

outrage on any man to violate IT, | have

J. Proctor Knott.

The spectacle Of Mr.. Proctor Knott,
swelling up like turkey cock, and pro-
claiming that man who questions has
fairness and his honor must take the aw
full consequences, is not particularly inn
pressive. The melodramatic hardly be-
comes him, and he succeeds much better
in his original character of court jester
We advise him to resume his cap and
bells and not play the fool except in the
line set down for him. Mr. Knott says,
with great show of indignation, that he
did not suppress the telegram from Cald-
we'll about Blaine, and that any man,
high or low, whoever he may be, who
will elsewhere make such an insinuation
must take the consequences" After
making this bombastic threat, the little
rascal substantially confessed that he had
suppressed the dispatch. The exhibition
was truly Il pitiable one. He said: !" In
less than thirty minutes, read it to sew
eral gentlemen" Is that what Mr. Knott
means by his denial? Were these several
gentlemen the persons most interested in
that telegram! He might have read it
to his wife or his brother or his grand
father or some member of the House; but
did he give it to the country, to the House,
Blaine's case? And if not, why noty
Why did this enterprising young joker
from kentucky conceal the fact that such
a dispatch had been received? What OBJ
ject had he in it? Who did he intehd

ened Contederates had not prevented
Blaine from replying, he would have
probably amounted to even less; but his
oifense in this respect is public and Off
cial one, and should receive consideration
at the hands of the House. As Chairman of
what ought to be the most dignitied and
impartial committee OF Congress, he has
suppressed information Of an important
character bearing on an important case,
and this dishOnorable course should re-
ceive prompt attention from his fellow.
members. Silence will be interpreted as
an approval of the act, and make the
House pdTlceps criminals in the affair.
Mr.. Knott says: = If the gentlemen had
only waited, that dispatch would have
been presented to the committee" When,
MIR. Knott? Five days had elapsed since
It's reception, and there were no signs as
yet OF its presentation.
1t was, indeed, slowed away among his
private papers at his private residence
the paper belonging to the committee, to
Congress, to the people of the country
When, then, did this man propose to sub,
nit il to the committees We do not re-
call more shameful breach of official duty
IN the history OF the present Congress. And
we can say to MIR. Knott that swagger and
buster will not save him from being
branded as one who has committed
gross discourtesy to the House and been
guilty of rank injustice to fellow mem

A Mothers Sacred Love.

The neighborhood of Ninth and L
streets was thrown into state of excite.
ment yesterday morning by al Infatuated
middle aged female clothed in black, with
short red hair, and armed with an inter-
ng.looking cowhide, with which, with
flendish delight, she cut the air right and
left, rs she bowled along at ten-knot speed.
Hating in front Of u respectable-looking
house, she attracted the attention of the
inmates by throwing Il brick against the
door. Halt N dozen heads were thrust
out of AS many windows, among them
that of well-known young gentleman
recently married. The excited woman
observed this, secreted her cowhide, and
with sanity smile said:
"Tom, come down here; would speak
with you a moment"
Thomas complied with the request, and,
accompanied by his blushing young
bride, opened the door and confronted his
visitor. That ancient institution cleared
the front steps at one bound caught Tom
my's left ear in firm grip, and began to
belabor him numerically, saying as she
did so:

this juncture, saving;

But Tom tearfully replied as an extra
sharp cut landed on his neck:

says | mustn't" Meekly he descended
the steps, and was led oti by his mamma,
followed by a large crowd. The newly
made bride went into the house, slammed
