THAT HEAD LINE.

The yonn. gentleman who presides in
our composition room has habit of max
ing heads. In the BULLETIN OF yester-
day he made head say that Knott had
beaten Blaine ia a controversy before
Hunters subcommittee. a correspond
ent OF the Sun ste,nty takes us to task for
this. and declares that Blaine came out
best. After reading the report of the
war Of words, we have every reason to be-
lieve Knott was not the victor. except in
the victory he gained over himself. when
he resisted the temptation 10 knock down
the insolent man of Maine. Mr.. Blaine
evidently was anxious to act Sumner to
Knots Preston Brooks. He desired
Knott to hit him with his cane. but Knott
refused to do 80. 4 blow from Knots
cane would have thrown the Mulligar
letters into the shade and have made
| Blanc president.

WANTED. A DEMOCRATIC CHAw



In the house OF representatives. Mr..
Blaine is rowjy. 4 man Of fine phys
ical development, loud voice and much
audacity, he rides rough-shod over the
Democratic majority. "A few days ago
he trampled on Mcssrs. Knott and Hun
ton. and on Thursday last insolently
crushed the gentle. specialized. ogotisii-
cal and weak, Mr.. Tarbox. of Massachu-
sets. Mr.. Knot, could not stand before
his attack. Mr.. IIunton resisted his
assault with gentleness that was
admirable, and Mr.. Tarbox made
Roadway against him for the very brief
spaceo OF no perccptble instant OF time.
The great parliamentary rowdy rode
down all these gallant but very light
champions of the Democratic side OF the
nouse. while all their fellows looked on
with ,laZed eyes and did nothing. All
where then was the great and Roman
named Mississippian-Lucius Quintius
Curtius Lamar. A blast upon his bugle
norm was in great demand at that time.
Can 1t be that he Is a fair weather war
rior-a carpet Anightf Ii so,
who among the Democrats of
the House is the knight
of hard blows-thc soldier who can
stand undismayed in the storms Of
Blaine's raising: Il there no one who can
measure swords with this man II there
is, why has he not stepped out and taken
up The bravado's gauntlet? Ii we had a
Douglas on the floor of the House, Blaine
would not have gained such easy tri-
umphs; and ValIandigham would not
hesitate to meet him in battle array. But
this is. we fear. the dav Of little meu on
congress, aud Blaine is bigger little
man than We have upon the floor on
which he is great only by contrast.

"Plate and Plate Buyers" After cx-
planning the excessive rarity Of genuine
old English plate, the writer gives many
curious particulars explanatory Of the
origin and history Of pla.e-marAs, con-
Guiding with words Of caution TO intend
ing plate buyers to beware of frequent
forgeries.

When Mr. Mulligan appeared before

Jesuits, who were attempting to break
down the gentleman from Maine. be,
cause OF his position on the common
school question. Mulligan and the
Catholics were roundly denounced by
the Radicals. Blaine was held I'D az ar

that Mulligan was not Catholic. Sine

Notice.

DENJAMIN MATTHIAS, of the
ID county of VermilliOn, in the
State of Indiana, will take notice
that Ida KooEtz, of the county
of Gallia, and State of Ohio, did,
on the 1lth day of July, A. d.
1876, file her petition in the Court of
Common Pleas, within and for the
county of Gallia, and State of Ohio,
against the said Benjamin Matthias and
Ebenezer Matthias, defendants, setting
forth that the said Ida kOOntZ, by pro-
ceedings in attachment under the bas-
tardy act, duly levied upon the follow
ing real estate, the property of the said
Benjamin Matthias, situated in said cOun-
ty of Gallia, and State of Ohio, tO-wit:
The undivided One-fifth part of the
northeast quarter of northeast quarter,
and the northwest quarter of the north
east quarter, and the southwest quarter
of the northeast quarter of section No.
z, township No. q, range No. l6, con-
tanning l20 acres, more or less. She OBJ
tanned a Judgment against the said Ben
jamin Matthias, at the April term of
said Court of Common Pleas, A. D.
1876, for $500 and costs of suit for the
support and maintenance of bastard
child delivered of her, and also IN order
to sell said premises. The said petition
alleges that on the 9TH day of October,
1875, the said Benjamin Matthias under
took to make and deliver to the said
Ebenezer Matthias his pretended deed of
conveyance of the abOve-described
premises, which was without considera-
ton, and with the intent and for the
purpose of defrauding the said Ida
Koontz from recovering the support and
maintenance OF said bastard child; and
that the said Ebenezer Matthias, at the
time said pretended deed of conveyance
was made to him knew all the facts eX-
isting, and was by collusion with the
said Benjamin Matthias a party to the
fraud. The prayer of said petition is
that said pretended deed of conveyance
from Benjamin Matthias to Ebenezer
Matthias, so far as concerns the said
plaintiff IS Judgment, may be declared
null and void and be wholly set aside,
and said lands and tenements so pre-
tended to be conveyed may be sold to
satisfy said judgment and costs; and
said Benjamin Matthias is notified that
he is required to appear and answer said
petition on or before the third Saturday
after the oath day of August, A. ID. 1876.

EDITOR JOURNAL:
Permit me small space in the
columns of your paper to say few
words in regard to our institute.
have seen the address of the Ex
ecutive Committee to the teachers of
Gallia county, in which the commit
tee proposes the terms and the man
ner in which an institute can be held
this year.
The call is a good one, / think, so
far as / have examined it-that is if
the teachers can come together and
act in unison. The teachers need all
the information possible to be OBJ
tanned. But the question arises here,
how can we expect it? what hopes
have we of the future if we must
Judge the future by the past? I'm
under the impression that the consti-
tuition of the association allows all
"active friends of education to be
come members of the association" !"
and then labor for its success.
1 will ask the question, has that
been the case? 1 think not. We
can't all have the instructors we
want. Then the will to "rule or
ruin" should be spurned. Now a
certain writer has said that ''our in
stitute last year came near being a
total failure" That assertion is not
fair, and the author knows it. While
the truth is that the failure referred
to was only the result of misunder-
standing Of the committee. Next,
the writer says that the advantages
of the institute were greatly dimin-
ished by the lack of a sufficient num-
Der of competent instructors" That
is mistake, which the writer well
knew. We had good instructors, the
very best the committee could secure
under the circumstances; as to the
number, we were well supplied. Fol
that the writer is ineXcnsable. Miss
Porter, of Iowa, is one of the very
best instructors, who will teach al
J the time, if it is necessary. She alone
is sufficient number. Then there
the writer says that the committee
employed one of its own members
: and that the president of the com
mittee avowed its right to disregard
! the authority of the institute"
The committee did no more thar
what the constitution allows it to do
The committee has the sole and ex
elusive control of the institute, an(
besides the committee was unde
oath and had given bond for th'
: faithful performance Of its duty.
do think under these circumstance
> that committee have the right II
act as they deem best and legal. Ii
conclusion l will say that a write
should always explain matters sufii

come to wrong conclusion, or do hi
