What is more fascinating than the study Of
optics, whether for pleasure or Instruction. The
interest taken in this art Is cynt ed by the attcn-
tion which the superb exhibit Of Manasse, Chi
eago's leading optician, attracts at the EXPOSE
tion. His display is Just where it rghtfully be-
longs, in one OF the most conspicuous parts Of
the building, near the great fountain. Every
thing pertaining to the opticians art is shown
at his stand. Mr.. Manassas store is at No. IS
Madison street, in THE TRIBUNE Building.
1t will be no fault Of the Western Toy Com
pany if the people Of the West do not now
learn how unnecessary i. is to look away from
Chicago when in search OF standard and novel
things to amusc aud interest the children.
generous space is occupied by this Company at
the Exposition with fine exhibit OF the various
beautiful toys, great and small, made by them.
The display is admitted by all vi,-.ors to
be peculiarly extensive and complete, and
will prove entertaining alike to young and old.
Retail dealers in toys will find it peculiarly ad-
vantageous to examine this exhibit, and to call
at the Companys works, Nos495 and 497 North
Wells street.
The windows of saddle and harness store
are always among the most attractive Of city
sights, and the display OF one firm in this line
Of business commands Us much attention as
anything at the Exposition. The house OF
Ortmayer, Lewis g. Go. makes beautiful e1-
hibit Of their goods, and one that clicits uni
yersal admiration This firm manufactures and
deals in the handsomest, most artistic. md

van Pe!s, the crueader.

John G. Van Pelt, who gained con-
siderable Do:oriety during the great
temperance crusade in this State,
came to grief, recently, in Missouri.
According to tie Cape Girardeau
News, he was found guilty on two
indictments for grand larceny, and
sentenced to five years End half in
the Missouri Penitentiary. He made
his appearance-at Cape Girardeau,
last spring, in company with a col
ored girl, who WIS disguised as aboy,
and passed for his servant. They
had travelled through the country in
two horse wagon, finally abandoned
the wagon, and stole a set of buggy
harness from Mr. Bierwitn, and
buggy from Mr.. Mat, Morrison.
They were traced into Perry county,
arrested, and returned to Cape Gi
rardeau for trial Van Peit assum
81 the name of Doe" Taylor, and
the girls name is Sarah Conway,
and she belongs TO Wilmington
t us State. The trials of Van Pei.
were commenced the 1Ith of JanU
airy, aud he was found guilty on both
C larges. An attampt to get new
trial on the first charge was over
ruled.
Van Pelt's conduct II the Court
room, according to the News, did not
create a very favorable impression
on the audience or jurors. The girl
was also placed on trial, but, it ap-
pearing that she had been acting in
the capacity ola servant to Van Pelt,
sle was discharged, after which a
purse WAS raised for her, and she

Secretary of State.

Colonel Milton Barnes, of Cam
bridge, Guernsey county, Ohio, will
be presented by his friends to the
Republican State Convention as a
candidate for Secretary of State.
Asa Jenkins, Esq, late Auditor of
Clinton county, will be candidate
before the Convention for the same
office.
r. NJ. Stimson, Esq, of Marietta,
formerly editor of the Marietta Reg
lister and Ironton Register, is also a
candidate for Secretary of State.
Mr.. Stimson was one of the ablest
and most successful editors ever con
uected with the Ohio press, and in
point of qualifications for the office,
personal character, and claims upon
the party for long and faithful ser
vices, has no superior among the
many capable gentlemen named in
connection with the Office. The edi
torial fraternity will be apt to give
him first rate notice" in the Con
vention.

The County Printing.
Tie Coun'y Editors Appeal for
Justice.

L io SOuu SQiCOrS Appea1 lOr
Justice.
A number of the elitors of Demo.
cratic newspapers in Republican
counties and of Republican newsps-
pers in Democratic counties, met in
Columbus short time ago to con-
slider the public advertising qEcs-
ton Under the present law the ps-
pers of majority in q county ;lsve
a monopoly of ail ofi,ial e.ivertis
ing an pubic printing, and the off
c .rs control both, rewar favoritiem
and subidizo tie press. 1t was for
the purpose of correcting many of
the present abuses that the conven-
ton was held. Counties are cited
where e officers wholly ignore the
papers representing the minority, and
yet insert official advertisements IN
two or three papers Of The majority.
As matter Of Justice to the inter
est of the minority in each county,
the convention unanimously sgreed
to ask the Legislature to pass law
compelling county officers to pub
lish official advertisements in two
papers of different politics in each
county. \ committee was appointed
to draft bills which embodied the
views of the elitors in the minority
counties and presented their action
before the Legislature. The bill is
already before the House, AMI pro-
vides that in all cases where State or
county officers are directed by stat
ute to publish any notice OF publ C
interest they shall give publication
in two papers of different politics,
provided there are such in each
county, the papers to be those of
general circulation anj those of the
great political parties in the county
and State. The bill will be IN
doubteily passed. The additional
cost viii not be much. Rukenbrod's
bill which establishes the number
of ems that shall constitute sqnare,
and regulates the price of each inser-
ton, will prevent much of the over
charging; and since official adver-
in many counties are pub
lished in more than one newspaper,
the law might just as well recog
nize the right of the minority. The
passage of the bill will do much to-
ward establishing the dignity and
independence of the press. The
county printing will not be sn issue at
every election, and min 1rity editors
will hesitate less to expose frauds
and condemn incompetency and in
because of the danger of
loosing it. Minority editors will not
be so readily bribed with a little slice
of the county patronage to rem ain
silent when the tax payers are being
robbed. It will also take the con-
troll of the whole bu3inesS out of the
hands of tle county officers, who
are frequently interested.-[S Sidney

that the Pope of Rome is the lord of
C@sar-tbat he is not only sovereign
in spiritual matters, but the absolute
master of all temporal rulers, they
cannot but be an element in our
country that requires watching.
They have dominated over al coun-
tries when in their power, and are
this day under rigid surveillance in
all Europe. In our country they
are free, and here they aim at DO
minion.
We hold this as a fundamental
principle Of good citizenship, that
every American ewes his first aud
highest allegiance to his oe,5s coa71trs-
We protest against that heresy in
politics that admits any paramount
allegiance to any State or potentate
other than the United States.
We know we have a set of political
infdeis among us. who are perpet-
ually harping about "State Socerign-
ty," which is libel on Nationality.

and unworthy citizens CT their coun
try. If it be bad to hold these doc
trines, it is greatly aggravated when
the person admits allegiance to a
foreign poteDtate. To this grave
charge Catholics are obnoxious.
They cannot be good citizDs an6
good Catholics at the same time
they must be false to their country
or their religion. We doubt not we
have good citizens in the Catholic
church, but they are only good, be-
cause they are better than their
creed
The Roman doctrine that the Pope
is sovereign above Cesar, is as
clear and explicit as any article of
their faith. A true Catholic, any
where or this round ball, holds the
Pope for his king, and Rome his
country. The Catholic State is
somewhat under q cloud now, but
Plus still claims his right to rule.
bafdlti6iIjty never changes, never
makes any mistakes-is the same yes
terday, to day and forever, and such
are the claims of Catholics every
where.
Few of our people. even among
those who are intelligent. have IA
miiiarized themselves with the i'm
periaIism Of Bt me in Temporal af-
fairs. ID the -.Cathoiie Review' of
July last, BfowDsoD, one of their

Roman Catholicism is an absolute
despotism,a tyranny over thoughtand
reason. All who would guard against
its rule Of this country should meet
its first encroacl ments: nip them in
