James w. Newman, editor of the
Portsmouth Times, is nearly grieved to
death because the Republicans in the
Ohio Legislature will not do more than
they have been doing, for the poor. Grip
pied soldiers. But the sorrowful ex.
Senator can not find time to tell his
readers that every Union soldier who
has been disabled, has been disabled by a
Democratic traitor, and that he, New.
man, when in the State Senate, voted
against the poor manned soldiers at the
Soldiers Home, having the poor privi-
lege of voting, and that all the other
Democratic Senators voted the same way.
Is not this SO, Mr. Newman?

And now once more the bull-necked,
hog gjawed libertines all over the country
are in high glee. Henry c. Bowen has
written very bitter letter, in which he
solemnly affirms that Henry Ward
Beecher is very wicked man, and if he
had the opportunity, he would like to
tell something terrible about him. 1t
will be remembered that during the Til
ton trial last summer, it was confidently
asserted that if only Bowen could be
called as a witness, he could tell all
about it, and that would make an end OF
poor Beecher. Well, he was called, and
was sworn to tell the truth, the aohsle
truth, and nothing but the truth, and
his evidence was the weakest and poor
est of the whole tribe of conspirators.
Now he will be called to testify before q
church committee, and if he tells any
thing which he failed to tell in court last
summer what will il be worth, when he
took an oath then to tell the whole
TRUTH
Bowen is a very mean rascal.

of the Bank, came in about midnight,

They have had a little sensation in Co

DR.. Warner, to have some work done.
She was put under the influence of laugh
ing gas, and while the DIR. was at work
at her teeth, she imagined that he tried
to kiss her. 1t is not very likely story
that man would want to kiss a woman
while working at her rotten teeth and
bloody mouth, especially when there
were two other women in the room at the
time. But the woman went off and told
her story, and fellow came with whip
and pistol, to chastise The dentist. Dr.
Warner drew his revolver and shot the
fellow in the arm, when the cowardly
fool dropped his revolver and fed.
