BELLAI RE.


THE campaign in this city will be COM
menced in earnest by the Republicans on
the 18th inst. Carl Schurz and other
speakers will be here at that time t. do
the work they have been employed by
the Republican party to do. But our
Democratic friends who will in all proba-
liability turn out to hear about how the
rebellion was carried on, and OF how
the country Uas saved, need not expect
to learn how il is 10 be saved from the
hands of prominent thieves and plumber
ers. Neither do they expect so hear how
much Mr.. Schurz gets from the Repubh-
can party for supporting Hayes, after
declaring himself in favor of 8 man like
Samuel j. Tilden who sis terror to all
thieves and robbers
THE Democrats will have grand
rally on next Saturday evening. Prepa-
rations are being made for q meeting
that will STIR the Democrats up to live,
earnest work 1t is expected that that
prince of orators, William Cullen Gas
ton, of Steubenville, and that very able
and earnest Democrat, Hon. }. II. Good,
of your city, will address the
people on the issues Of this campaign.
Next "Wednesday evening 10th inst.
Hon. s. S. Cox, of New York, who has
many warm friends in this city, hon.
Edmund Juassen, of illinois, also our own
able and learned candidate for Congress,
Hon. VIM. Lawrence, will address the
people OF Bellaire and vicininty on
the live issues of to day, and not
the dead issues of years ago. This, no
doubt, will be the grandest meeting OF
the season. and the people all over the
country are earnestly requested to atteLd
THE blowers in the Ohio and National
glass houses of this city, are out on
strike.
Business in this city Is picking up
considerably. Our merchants all expect
a lively trade this fall.
SOME OF the Democrats in this county
should remember, while they are so
earnestly and persistently urging the
claims of r. +. Chambers, the I'adepe''d-
ent candidate for Common Pleas Judge,
that the county ticket is good one, and
that the election or defeat of every man
on it will have some weight politically
in the canvass this fall. No true Dem.
ocrat will sacrifice the whole county
ticket or even man on 1t, for the sake
of Judge Chambers. IT he is elected
well ard good, but the county ticket
should not lose any supporters because
the Republicans failed to make nomina-
ton, believing there are fools enough in
the ranks of Democrats in this county
who favor Chambers election to trade OF
ennnrh To defeat the whole ticket

lightning Marks.

In one case, q sailor was struck down
in his cot near the mast oil the vessel,
and on his left breast was found WELL
formed Impression OF the number "forty-
four,' which was attacued in metal let
ters to the mast. On another occasion a
young man was struck by lightning, and
on his neck was found the image OF a
horseshoe, which was fixed on a wall a
little way off. In third Case, a sailor,
81 ing at the foot OF miZzen-mast, was
killeu by fasn or lightning, and his
back exhibited the impression OF a
horseshoe nailed to the mast. 1t was
not until many years after the occur
renee Of the most recent of these cases,
that q rational explanation OF the facts
was supplied by the experience Of u
celebrated electrician. While expert
mentng w .th HoltZ electrical machine
ne discovered that ii q drop or two oil
wafer was sprinkled on the brass ball
OF the negative pole, spots exactly cor
responding and similar dimness ap-
peared on the positive pole, showing
tuaL lines Of force extended from one
pole.to another, through the intervening
air. To explain the cases Just men,
| toned, therefore, it is only necessary
10 assume that the fatal discharge OF
electricity from the horseshoe, or the
metal numbers, was ''negative" and
| that the bodies struck by 1T were ''posl
\ Jlvely' electrified.

An Explanation Hn Order.

Mr.. Chester L. Cartwright, u repu-
table citizen Of the Twenty-frst Ward,
where he has lived, on Burns street, for
the last fourteen years, has a grievance
which should engage the attenIio Of the
Police Commissioners. He was attend
ing the sick bed of his suffering child
night before last, and little after Il
O'clock took walk in the cool air for
recreation. When about two squares
rom his home Ga home, by the way.
which he bought and paid for by honest
toll }, Othcer Dick Thompson approached
him, and placing his hand upon his
shoulder declared him under arrest,
taking him to lhe Station-house, where
he was consigned TO hot and 8 W eltcrIng
cell.
Although startled at his arrest, he in
sisted that same charge should be pre-
terred against him, and it being lnti-
mated that "disorderly conduct was
about the size Of IL, wrote that charge
on the slate with his own hands. when
| he saw how 10th Thompson was to DO
so. He was placed in cell, where he
| remained until O'clock yesterday
morning, when he was liberated througn
| the intercession of the very man VINO
| made the arrest, and without any ex
! plantations Whatever. The question ar.
| rises, why the arreslP Tue man was not
drunk, not disorderly, but merely taking
| a quiet airing preparatory TO going to
bed after sleepless night by the bad
side OF an ailiug child. Unless all signs
| fail, Mr.. Cartwright proposes to demand
| The proper reparatlon Tor an outrage To
| his liberty as iaw-abiding citizen.

Disappearance of Georgia Lakes

A Jnird lake in LoWndes County,
Georgia, is emptied OF its waters by sub
terranean passages. What is The mat
ter? Lowndes County had within its
borders numbers Of lakes, from len to
five hundred (and several beyond one
tuousand) acres in size, and it may be
tnat these lakes are all connected with
IL grl nd underground water course. In
Septem oer, 1875, one run of, and lett
quantities OF tsn in holes of ater abo Vi
upon the bottom OF the lake. In Jauuai y
another, five miles off, did the sant
thing, and now Grassy Pond, a lake
covering about FIVE hundred acres be
tween The Two here mentioned, has left
its milllons OF fishes out OF water.
!. Cely report spread all over the
county that Grassy Pond was low
envu.n to rake the fish out with nets,
and by sundown over one hundred peo-
pie collected at the place with dipped
OF cast nets. The first haul with the
seine caught enough trout, jack, Dream
and speckied perch to make a "mess"
for all present, and during the night all
the water disappeared and there were
millions OF fish LETT dead upon dry land.
The next day the planters hltched up
their wagons and hauled load after load
and scattered them in their fields for
IN ,nure, and thousands were lett at the
mercy OF buzzards, hogs and other
creatures OF prey. Such quantities OF
tisn and sucn destruction has never been
known. in the history of Lowndes
County. We learn that Grassy Pc nd is
hlIng up again, but it is too late to save
the fish.

Shooting Affray,

Michael Breen, formerly an inmate OF
the Soldiers Home, entered John Ko.
kenge's saloon, at the corner of Filth
and Sycamore streets, yesterday after.

refused to pay for them. He was ejec ed
by Kokenge, but about half an hour later
ne entered the saloon again, with pis-
tol. Breen aimed at KOkenge's breast
but the latter threw up his arm to de-
stroy Breen's aim, when the pistol was
discharged and the ball entered the sa.
loon keepers arm. The wound is not
dangerous. Breen was taken to Ham
mond street SIaii,n.
In the Police Court this morning
Breen waived examination, and was
bound over to the Court Of Comn Oh
Pleas to answer the charge of shooting
with intent to kill.
