"Bristows military service closed in
1868. when he was mustered out with his
regiment. This is offered i'm proof that
he did not resign, as alleged, because of
the enlistment of colored soldiers Pre-
cisely why it was that he ceased to have
a stomach for the fight, just at that criti-
cal period OF the war, is not yet satisfac-
torily explained. We suppose he might
have re-entered the service for the war,
had he chosen to do o. Times.
Perhaps a paragraph bearing intrinsic
evidence OF coarse malice to the extent
that appears above might be safely left
to answer itself Colonel Bristow left
the army to lead the Union men in the
Kentucky Legislature, and when he had
done what he could there he returned
to the army. Has the Times forgotten
that Colonel Bristow commanded the
Kentucky cavalry that pursued John
Morgan through Indiana and Ohio, and
smashed up and captured Dick Morgan
regiment on the banks of the Ohio2-
| Cincinnati Commercial.
That was in July, 1868. Will the Com
mercial tell us how much service Bris
tow rendered in the army after that
time? By the way Morgan's army stop
ped at jackson during the raid, and the
pursuing Union forces stopped here ovei
night, but we never heard Of Bristow al
that time. He must have been rather
an Insignificant kind of an officer, or
some one would remember him.

The Democrats have met with another
Lumiliating defeat in their investigations.
In attempting to fasten charge on
Blaine of having traded in railroad
bonds, they have proven by Thomas
Scott that it was he who sold the $64,0 600
in bonds to the Union Pacific Railroad
Co., and that he was President Of the
company at the time, and it was done to
remunerate him in part for extra services
for the company. Tom Scott was the
candidate for President four years ago, ol
the Cincinnati Enquirer Another Dem
ocrat is thus caught.

Gen. Comfy, editor of the Columbus
Journal, has got home from Washington
city; hence such wicked items as the
following may occasionally be seen in
Journal:
The latest reports seem to indicate
that Thurman did not carry the Cincin-
natl Convention. Our young friend
William Allen, who has been living in
retirement raising hell and broomcorn
down at Fruit Hill for year or two.
scooped Thurman. This young states
man first became known to a majority OF
the people Of Ohio in 1879, when he came
out like youthful David, armed with
the weapon of Samson, and won the bat
tie for the venerable Thurman. Ii is not
strange, perhaps, that the venerable
Thurman took a dislike to the youthful
champion, for he was ruddy and Of fair
countenance. and all the women said he
slew ten thousands while Thurman only
slew thousands. This was enough 10

We have our revenge. Our good friend
Hillborn c. Miller, went and telegraphed
our name to the Cincinnati Gazette as
William Mackley. II there is anything
in our name OF which we feel proud, it is

Now the Columbus Journal pays off
friend Miller thus:

A PERFECT DAY.

The earth Is wrapped in a dream of bliss
In rest complete:
And the touch of the air is like a kiss,
Comforting, sweet.
And the tiny creatures are singing low
And the watching silence doth stir and glow,
AS the wind creeps by.
And there is the suns own mantle fung
On the chestnut tops,
And yonder are tangled rainbows hung
With shimmering drops.
And over the things so soon to die
Is a gentier law,
A hush OF peace and a tenderer sky
Than the summer saw.
open the windows wide to-day,
Where soul may dwell,
In the heart OF a palace grand and gay,
Or a prison cell.
o look, ye happy, till pleasure grows
To a nobler thing;
Till you bring your joy as the amber flows,
For an Offering.
And look, ye weary, till grief and pain
ITansngured shine;
Rejoice for the crimson glory's gain,
The holiest sign.
mourn .ye never that hope Is lost,
That rest delays;
They are after summer and after frost,
These sweetest days.
Often and often will skies be gray.
And hearts be sad;
But the Lord hath made US perfect day
Let us be glad.

The story that Bristow resigned from
the army because Of the employment OF
colored troops, is damaged slightly by
the fact that he did not resign at all. He
was mustered out with his regiment in
1s63.-[Cincinnati Gazette.

and when the services Of true men were
most sorely needed. 1t was the time
too, when President Lincoln issued his

HOW rs THIS Z

About q week ago there was long
communication in the Cincinnati Com
mercial, in praise Of Bristow, and in that
article it was stated that Bristow made
speeches in favor OF Bell and Everett in
the campaign OF 1860. In the Cincinnati
Gazette of Monday last was an editorial
commencing thus:
In 1860, 1860 votes were cast in Ken
lucky for Abraham Lincoln, and one OF
those votes was cast openly by b. ii.
/ Bristow.
And further along in the same article
the Gazette says:
B. II. Bristow never presented two
| faces to the public, and never was afraid
TO confess openly and to defend with his
sword, his vote, and his voice the faith
that was in him.
Did Bristow make speeches for the
Bell and Everett ticket in 1860, and then
vote for Lincoln?
II so, did he not present two faces
Is the article in the Commercial false
or is the Gazette lying2
The twin Bristow organs must recon
cile this matter. No dodging, or throw
ing themselves back on their dignity.

The General Conference of the NJ. E.
Church is making several movements in
the right direction. Here is one little
item:
BALTIMORE, May l6.-In the Methodist
Conference to-day resolution that wo-
men be eligible to the office Of leader,
steward, exhorter, and local preacher,
was referred, as was also the resolution
advising the Annual Conferences not to
receive into full connection nor ordain
any preacher to deacon's or elders order 8
unless he abstain entirely from the use
Of tobacco.
Women have done nine-tenths of the
work in the NJ. E. Church, and their
sphere of usefulness should be enlarged.
We do not know what will be the fate
Of the anti-tobacco resolution; but it is
too narrow. 1t should extend to the en-
tire membership. We have our misgiv-
ings about those smoking, sinking
Christians (2. If Heaven is to be filed
with such, then give us the other place.

and birthstone. we take the latter.
