Military.

Last Spring the new law for the Ohio
National Guards, went into effect, which,
among oihsr things, provides that the
State shall allow So towards the expense of
each uniform that conforms to the regula-
ton requirements. The Legislature sd-
journed last year without making the ne
cessary appropriation. We see that Repre-
sentative Thorp offered resolution in the
House last Saturday to bring about an ap-
preparation, which was adopted. The
following is the resolution:
'sResolUed. That the sommittee on
military affairs be instructed to enquire
what legislation if any is necessary 70 car
ry into effect, the provisions Of the militia
act of May 7th, 1877, and to report by bill
or otherwise"

all honorable means to SECURE the nOmins-
tion and election of men who will carry
out his wishes, and never, under any cir
cumstAnces, vote for an intempsrats man,
or one who favors the making or sale of
liquors as beverage. The discussion re-
vealed painful fact to our mind, that
some of leading men in Ashtabula. are
either actively, or passively opposed to
having religion enter into the temperance
movement at all, but rely wholly upon hu-
man kindness to carry on the work.
Suffice it to say, the preamble and reso-
lutions we're tabled, or perhaps struck out
of existence.

This SarsapariHai is combination of

of Potassium and Iron, and is the
most efficacious medicine yet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure,
Its ingredients are so skilfuIlY
combined that the full Alternative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is so mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still so effectual as
to purge out from the system those
impurities and corruptions which
develop into loathsome disease,
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence
which prominent physicians all oveT

Certificates attesting its virtues

they furnish convincing evidence Of
the superiority of this SarsapariIla

Our Senator Thurman, is reported to
have said, that it was time for Congress to
do something practical. He probably was
right, but the question comes up, could
not some of our statesmen effect something
practical, and in very practical way, by
letting their tongues and energies rest?
This is essentially true in financial mat
tiers, as the psoposition of the n. Y. bank
erS to resume specie payment at once,
would seem to indicate. 1t is not tinker
ing Or officious meddling that is wanted so
much, for putting things in a right shape,
as to stand out Of the way-hands Off
and ler things find their true level. The
effective way in medical treatment, some
times, is to let nature get the advantage,
and she will take better care, and work
surer cure than all the medicines in the
world. Another illustration Of this truth,
is found in holy writ-whsre we are com
mandsd to stand still and see the glory Of
God.
The country has reached gold basis,
and we can see no good reason for not act
ing in accordance with the fact instead of
operating upon a vague financial theory.
In all the years of our history the country
was never so thoroughly and firmly upon
gold basis as now. The difference be-
tween paper and gold dollar is less than
it ever was, and yet, in the face of this
fact, men persist in bowling about the i'm
possibility of resuming; they shut their
eyes when the sun is shining with noon
day splendor, and grope in midnigh;
darkness.

Eds. Iet:-That sensible old lady, Mrs.
E. G. Stanton, gave us her lecture on ''Our
Boys" The house was full, and we were
ali pleased. She is candid and truthful,
and her positions in regard to the treat
ment of our boys sound. The majority of
them, she said, were not reached by the
Bible, the church, or the Sabbath school.
That as these means had failed to convert
them into good and honest boys, some.
thing else must be tried. Examples of
different methods that are being used
with good results were cited. Billiard ta-
bles, shooting galleries and dancing halls
attached to the church, have been resorted
to, to gather in this rowing, rough class,
and to convert them to the good and the
true. 1t should be the sndeavor to 5make
them noble boys, of correct principles.
The end justiies the means, for any
thing and any way to save the thousands
and tens Of thousands of these dear boys,
made in the image of our heavenly Father,
and who, if left'to themselves will fill our
Jails, psnitentiaries and asylums and de-
scend to drunkards graves.
She favored the taxing of all church
property, stating that. there were $6O,OOO,
900 invested in churches and their sur
roundings, in the city Of New York
alone.
She also favored woman's voting-es-
pecially those sOwning property-that tax
alton without representation, was unjust.
Here, at least, she was sound; for it was
the foundation idea Of the revolution.
She is a pleasant and plain speaker,
and for a.iwoman, good reasonsr. Our
nope is, that We may be favored at no
distant day with another treat.
There is an effort being made, to get
Col. Bob Ingersoll, 10 lecture here next.
By the way, that silly-cuss, fiutJers and

the right and left, and is withal, so prod
gal with his sage advice, he must have
been hit Like Hugo's Devil Fish, when
the knife touched a vital part, there was
no more harm in its numerous tsntacles.
When his patent inside was touched, his
exaggerated and slanderOus pen became
powsrless. Our citizens ray indulge in
the purchasing or trading of watches, or
go to church, even if the basement door
should be left unlocked, without the
fear of this silly-cuss following them, or
prying into family secrets for the purpose
of enriching the columns of his faVorite
