Heart DIsease,

When an individual is reported I'd
have died of a "disease of the hearts
we are in the habit of regarding it as an
inevitable event. as something which
could not have been foreseen or preyens
ted; and it is too much the habit, when
persons suddenly fall down dead, to re.
port the "heart" MS the cause; this si.
lences oil inquiry and investigation, and
saves the trouble and inconvenience or
repulsive post mortem. A truer re.s
port would have tendency to cave
many lives. tits through report OF
"disease of the heart" that many an
opium eater is let off into the grave.
which COVERS at once his folly and his
crime; the brandy drinker, too, quietly
slides round the corner thus, and a
heard of no more; in short this report.
of "disease Of the heart" is the mantle
of charity, which the polite coroner and
the sympathetic physician throw around
the graves of "genteel people, lAta.
late scientific congress at Strashurp. 1t
was reported that of sixty six persons
who had suddenly died, an immediate
and faithful post mortem showed that
only two perso6e had any heart afiec.,
ton whatever; one sudden death only
in thirty-three from disease of the heart.
NINE out of the six,y-six died of apo.
plexy, one out of every seven, while
forty-six, more than two out OF three,
died of lung affections, half of them OF
congestion of the lungs" that lie, the
lungs were SO full of blood they could
not work, there was not room for enough
air to get in to support life.

Cincinnati Eneuirer.)

There are several merchants and
manufacturers in Cincinnati who will be
interested in studying the Communistic
doctrines of the Republican candidate
for the Governorship. That they may
not be forgotten we again reproduce
them:
81 would go further and try the ex.
periment-but do not know that it
would succeed-I would arrange and fix
a minimum of prices for all who labor
in the mines and upon the railroads, and
then require that of all the net receipts
and proceeds of the capital invested the
laborer at the end OF the year should, in
addition to his fixed compensation, re.
ceive certain per cent of the profits.
Applause, and cries of That is the
man.
This is entirely harmonious with the
Republican platform.

THE CAMPAIGN.
The Know Nothing Lie About II
M. Bishop.


The Enquirer nips in the bud the cry
that Bishop was elected Mayor of Gin
cinnati as Know Nothing in 1859 in
this effective manner:
Mr.. Bishop could not have been q
member of the Know Nothing party in
1859, for the reason that it was dead and
buried and the Republicans had admin.
istered npon The estate, and appropriated
all the assets as early as 1856.
If there had been any Know Nothing
party in 1859 Mr. Bishop couldn't have
been very rampant and hloodthirsty
member of it. or Fred Hassaurek and
other prominent Germans would not
have given him their support when he
ran for the Mayoralty .-s.

wOn the 9th of August, last year,
the three masted iron steamship Great
Queensland left London for Melbourne
with large cargo and sixty-nine pas
sengers and crew on board At Grave
SEND she stopped to take on some thirty
tons of black gunpowder and two tons
of patent gunpowder. After this was
laden she proceeded on her voyage, and
has never been heard from since August
18th, 1875 A name-board belonging
to her, however, and some life-buoys,
have been washed ashore on the south
coast of England. The English Wreck
Commissioner has just decided that the
steamer must have been destroyed by
the explosion of the patent gun-powder,
which was proved to have been In bad

Political Nuggets from a Home
Paper.

(From the Bellefontaine Examiner. published
at the home of W. Il. West. Republican
candidate for Governor
Mr.. West was a very vicious Know
Nothing.
1t is now about % years since Mr..
West solemnly swore by his Maker that
he would never vote for foreigner or a
Catholic for any Office whatever.
We dare any dear friend Of Mr.. West
to deny one thing and that is that the
news of his (West's) nomination for
Governor fell with dead thud upon the
Republicans of this city.
