The CLNCLNNA TT CALAMITY.

Last Saturday afternoon Robinsons
Opera House was crowded with women
and children to witness a representation,
when an alarm of fire was raised and a
rush was made to get out. Heartrending
scenes were numerous, and ten lives
we're lost and great number injured.
The following is list of the dead
Mrs Alfred White fell in the vestibule
while endeavoring to escape with her
ive-year old daughter, BERTHE. When
the alarm was sounded she seized her
child and held it over her head until, by
the jostling of the crowd, she was over
thrown, when, as she fell she tossed her
child from her, and it was ultimately
saved. Of four other children out of the
seven she possessed, who were with her,
all escaped except the boy Harry, Upon
being rescued from the crowd, Mrs.
White was taken to the Cincinnati Hos
pital, where she expired within fifteen
minutes from the effects of the internal
injuries she received
Harry White, the twelve-year old son
of Mrs. White, was crushed in the lobby
at the foot of the gallery stairs. His in
juries we're chiefly of an internal charac-
ter, and his death was evidently due to
suffocation.
Mrs. Nancy Clark was found after the
excitement subsidized sitting in her chair
dead. Her demise was evidently due to
heart disease.
Annie May Runzi, aged twenty-five
years, was killed in the crush by falling
from the second tier over the stair ban
mister to the floor below. Her visible
injuries were a scar on the forehead and
a discolored right eye, She resided in
Alton, ILL.,, and was here on a visit.
Fredonia Massatt, aged about seven
teen years, expired soon after being re-
moved to Deter's saloon. She received
a fracture of the collar-bone and of the
base of the skull. She was a house.
keeper with DR.. Bailey, on Seventh
street.
Hattie Leslie, aged twelve years, was
crushed IN the gallery stairway. one
was the daughter of Robert Leslie, shirt
manufacturer at Fourth and Race streets,
and resided at Io2 Poplar street.
Frederick Loesch, aged ten years, and
Augustus, aged eight years, were the
sons Of Frederick Loesch, timer of 45S
Central avenue. They we're found to-
gether on the steps leading from the sec
ond tier to the ground floor. Their
death was caused by suRocation. A sis
ter who was with them is still nervous
from the fright, but received no injuries,
James Crowley, aged seven years, was
taken to 1873 Ninth street, where he died
in few minutes.
Quite number Of persons were taken
up insensible, and were thought to be
fatally injured, but are recovering.

HARPER's Weekly says that nothing
'should cause any man to forget that the
Democratic party is now what ithas been
for many years-the political organiza-
ton of those who aimed to destroy the
National Union and Government for the
basest and most revolving Of purposes,
and who still declare that their views,
except as to the practicability of seces-
sion, remain unchanged"
Much more truthful would it be to say
that the Democratic party is the only po-
litical organization that has ever carried
on the General Government in accord
ance with the Constitution, and with
honesty, justice and economy. The peo-
pie of the country are beginning to real
ize this fact and make the contrast be-
tween the "crooked" ways of the party
in power, their ruinous and robber rule,
and the careful and proper sway of the
old Democracy. The great need now is
honest administration of public affairs.
Let us get back to just laws and all equal
before the law. 1t is time we were dis
pensing with plunder tariffs and other
robber schemes, and doing away with
the whole ring system.

too, disturbing values, rendering busi-
ness and labor uncertain and tending to
anarchy. The account ofthe public meet
ing at Ironton, in this State, an account
Of which will be found,in this paper, has
induced these remarks. Let all good
citizens ponder well the serious condition
of things in this fair land, and unite by
influence and voting to return to just
laws and equality before the law.

New LIsBoN.-The Buckeye State print
ing office on Saturday night of week be-
fore last was the scene of drunken row
in which damage was done. 1t seems that
about midnight the door was broken
open and George Zimmerman and Smelly
Lamborn sailed in and attacked Carpen-
ter and Baxter, two employees in the
office. Things were lively for while,
type were pied, rollers destroyed, galleys
ruined, column rules bent and hacked;
chairs broken, and lamps smashed into
atoms, and their Gordon jobber injured
materially. During the fracas Mr.. Car
penter received lick upon the nose by
a column rule or some sharp instrument,
which cut off a portion of it. Had it
not been for the timely appearance of
Mr.. Moore, the publisher, the Office
would in a short time have been a COM
plete wreck. AS he was entering one of
the boys was in the act of pushing over
the imposing stone. The amount of dam
age done will amount to near hundred
and fifty dollars.

HON. L. d. WOODWORTH, THE
GRANGER.

That honest old Granger, Hon. l.. D.
Woodwork, who covers his district with
glory by representing it in Congress, has
re-published his speech ION inter state
communication, or something ofthat sort)
and is loading the mails with it for the
benefit of his brother Changers in the
central and western parts of the district.
Lauren keeps one eye on another Con-
gressional term, notwithstanding his vir-
tuous declaration that he would shun the
cares of Office and retire to the peaceful
shades Of Youngstown. He is "in the
hands of his friends" and some of them,
already full of gratitude for expected fa-
vors, think his denomination is necessary
to the salvation of the country. We ven
ture to suggest to this eminent patron of
husbandry that new speech would tell
better than that old one, which has al
ready done duty so often that although
it was maiden speech at the start, it
now deserves to be called veteran. We
are somewhat in sympathy with the pa
tron of private boarding houses, who
said that he was extremely fond of hash
for fifty or sixty consecutive meals, but
didn't like it for regular diet. Granger
Woodworth's speech has been mighty
good reading for fifty or sixty times, but
Lis appreciative constituents have got it
by h art, so to speak, and they really
hunger for something new.-Cdnfeld

was that they did not try, convict and
hang Jefferson Davis when they had him
prisoner? Now, that they are abusing
Jeff. for writing letter in reply to
Blaine & Co.'s charges of cruelty against
him, we suggest they answer our ques-
ton. We never took any stock in Davis,
but with the author of Tristram Shandy,

Tur naners sneak in high terms Of

The papers speak in high terms of the
speech of Mr.. Woodwork on the bill
limiting the President to one term. He
opposed the amendment, and said ne
would rather prefer to see President
Grant reelected than to see the
Offices filled by one of those who twelve
years ago were in arms against the COY
ernment, This was applauded, and is
right.-Repository.
That is, it is right to elect Grant to a
third term. We suspected that was where
our neighbor would land. The same
paper states the reduction proposed in
the salaries of army officers, but does not
say that "is right" We observe that the
Republican papers are proposing to fall
into line and advocate continuation OF
the Grant-Babcock administration.

In good, plain, unmistakable Anglo
Saxon, the Springfield Republican says
that it is not now question of making
war upon an intrenched justice, of free
ing race. 1t is only question of stop
ping theft and Furnishing thieves, of
girdling administrative abuses, of waging
war against public plunderers, high and
low; of checking the spread of dry rot
corruption which is eating away at the
heart of the tree of liberty in fine, of
making honesty and capacity the rule in
every department of public service.

Hon. Jefferson Davis, late President
of the late Confederacy. has written a
letter to James Lyons, of Virginia, in re-
lation to Blaines speech and the am
nesty debate in the House. The letter
is devoid of bitterness. Jefferson rather
encourages the discussion in the hope
that all the facts will be brought to the
surface. He doesn'tseem to be afraid of
the facts. Mr.. Davis, according to his
own showing, is humane man, and is
guiltless of the charge Of cruelty to pris'
oners of war.

TILE DIPLOMATIC BILL

In the House has elected much talk-the
Republican members opposing economy
as in the West Point bill. The following
remarks were made on the 3d.
Mr.. Singleton (who had charge Of the
bill as a member of the Committee on
Appropriations advocated the principles
of economy on which the bill was formed,
and argued that general depression Of
business throughout the country rendered
this economy an imperative duty. He
said that official salaries had grown out
of all proportion to what they had been
in the better days of the Republic, when
Edward Everett was Minister to England,
Gen. Cass to France, and Wheaton to
Prussia. The salary then paid these men
was quite satisfactory, and what was it,
nine thousand year. He had never
heard of the minister of these days
writing essays on poker and dealing in
stock of Emma mines in order to add to
their means, Laughter. They were
gentlemen of the highest order of re-
spectability-Sans Psnr ct Sans Re
brOche.
Mr.. Garfield suggested that in those
days Ministers not only received an outfit
but also an Unfit to cover expenses of
their return home.
Mr.. Kasson suggested that diplomatic
salaries had been increased in 1854 by a
Democratic Congress,
EXTRAvAGANCE OF THE ADMINISTRA-
TION.
Mr.. Singleton wanted to point out
items in which reductions were made in
the bill, and gave an aggregate reduc-
ton, as compared with the diplomatic
appropriation bill last year, at about
100000. He pointed to the fact that
the ordinary expenses ofthe Government
for the last year outside of interest on the
public debt were about $40 600, 900,
while in 1866 the expenses of the Gov
ernment were only about $63. 900, 900,
and he asked what was the cause of the
vast increase in expenditure, 1t was on
account of extravagances INDUCED in by
all departments of the Government.

REPUBLICAN candidates for the Presi-

Fish and Wheeler; Maine has Blaine /;
Pennsylvania, Hartranft; Ohio, Hayes;

Illinois, Washburne; Minnesota, Ram

candidates, excepting Blaine, is Grant.
They will get into squabble and wran-

just as Grant expects. None of them
will be able to reach it, and all will turn
around and work for Grant, who will
thus in the end receive the nomination.

tissue, and not infrequently the person
who is killed by it is almost instantly so
far putrefied that he has to be buried at
once. 1t is said, though with what
truth we know not, that in the eye of q
person struck and killed by the dis
charge there is always peculiar spot
on the eyeball, produced by the extra
vasation of blood caused by the sudden
expansion and rupture of minute blood
vessels. It was once supposed that
neighboring trees were sometimes pho
tographed on the body of the person
struck, but recently it has been shown
that the appearance of the tree is but
the common authorization of electricity
which every one who has noticed q
highly charged Leyden jar has seen, as
the electricity escapes into the air or
ticks around to the tinfoil on the OUT
side. The same effect may be obtained
by discharging lightning over sheet Of
glass on which steam has been con-
densed. The safest place during a
thunderstorm is in the center of a
room, and if one is very nervous he may
put tumblers under the legs of the chair
ON which he sits, for electricity always
seeks the path of the least resistance. =
