ARCANAN, OHIO, March IL.
We have just been informed by q
reliable citizen that, few miles
north of Arcanan, the people wit
messed most striking phenomenon
about nine O'Clock to-day. While
the sun was shining in a clear sky,
there came down from the heavens
a copious shower of ham and eggs.
This strange shower lasted for the
space of half an hour, and at this
writing the whole face of the coun-
try for miles around is covered with
slices of sugar-cured ham to the
depth of about four feet, beautifully
mixed with several millions Of
smashed eggs. We have informa-
ton that specimens have been for
warded to Cincinnati for inspection,
which we have no doubt will give
some light on this subject.

Suggestive Facts.

AMEs cannot escape his share of re-
sponsibility for the crime of which Davis
has been imPeached. His confidential
Secretary, Packer, played strong game
in the business and received part of the
money which was paid for the pardon.
He gave notice to the parties when Ames
had crossed the line into Louisiana for
hepurpose of enabling Davis to grant the
pardon. Did not Ames have knowledge
of what his trusted Secretary was doing :?
Has he withdrawn his confidence from
Packer, since his completely in the affair
was revealed? Dare he do it? Did
Packer betray him when he acted the
spy on his movements? On the contra
ry, is he not now as he was then, the
guide, counselor and friend of the Gov
ernor? There is suggestive conjunc-
ton of circumstances in the case.

TRkE QUESTION Oa THE DAY.


Natchez Democrat
Judging from the composition Of the
committee, all able men, and from the
character for cool and sound Judgment OF
its chairman, Gen. FeatheIston, it is
quite reasonable to suppose that if their
report be in favor of impeachfhg, the i'm
parchment will not fail In this connec-
ton we can only repeat what we said
several days ago, that we can conceive of
no harm that could possibly come of i'm
parchment, even though it should fail,
(Which we now regard as extremely I'M
likely comparable in magnitude to that
which must come from leaving this pub
lie enemy undisturbed to carry out, with
the full powers of Governor, his part of
the Morton ct al. conspiracy against the
peace and welfare of our State. Let
him be impeached and removed, and let
him be driven from the State with the
brand of iDfamy upon his brow, that he
may be known of all men as an outcast
from a people to whom he was an alien,
whom he governed while he hated them,
villifed when he should have shielded
them, allowed to be plundered when he
should have protected them, and con-
spired against when they had shown him
magnanimity.
On Wednesday the House was to con-
slider Cardozo's case and check him off
with Davis. So off he goes. Now for

leading thief, the dirtiest of them ALL

Ames is doubly so. His name is d very

sweet detail will be unearthed, to form a
sequel to the Tale of Shirt

A Fable with IN Moral.

A Farmer found in the winter time
Snake stiff and frozen with cold. lie
had compassion on it, and taking 1t up
placed it in his bosom. The Snake on
being thawed by the warmth quickly re-
vivel, when, resuming its natural IN
stincts, he bit his benefactor, intilctlng
on him mortal wound. The Farmer
said with his latest breath, 81 am rightly
served for plying a scoundrel .--fsop.
HERE is a moral for our Legislators in
dealing with Ames. He is now in the
condition of the frozen viper, completely
paralyzed and powerless for mischief.
Let him escape punishment for his crimes
and remain in the office he has forfeited,
and like the snake, he will be quick tC
turn upon his beneiactors and pierce
them with his poisonous fangs. dis
power for evil will be commensurate
with his will to do it. And when the
demon of strife and bloodshed RACES like
an uncaged tiger over the State, and he
people are again the subjects of carpet
bag rule maintained by federal bayonets
it will be poor consolation to say, "W'
care rightly served for keeping such

To decline to i'm peach Ames would be
an acquittal of the charges against him,
50 far as the House of Representatives is
concerned; but that body has no right to
pronounce such judgment, and cannot
refuse to put him on trial, if there are
we'll grounded evidences of guilt, which
no one can deny. 1t will be for the Senate
to determine whether the facts, when
presented on trial, are sufficient to con-
Wet him of having set the Constitution
and laws at defiance
