Mr.. Curtiss has letter in the Cincin-
natl Times about the unhealthy condi-
ton of the State House at Columbus
He intimates that it has been the cause
OF several deaths. and among others that
of Gov. Brough. He says:
Let any one used to pure air and de-
cent ventilation step into the Hall Of
the House just before noon, and if one
good sniff does not satisfy him that the
air is very impure, he must be a man
without the sense of smell, or one used
to the peculiar odors incident to a soap
factory.
We have tried that experiment. Mr..
Curtiss battles all around for the cause,
but seems utterly blind to the real cause.
which should be apparent to any one
with half an eye. He talks about sta
BILE some where about the basement. and
about leaky as-pipes, &c. The cause is
not down there. Go into the Hall of the
House just before noon, as Mr.. Curtiss
suggests, and what do you seer There
are perhaps $50 men in the Hall, and at
least 100 Of them are smoking, and have
been so engaged all the forenoon. The
sinking air in the room is blue with to-
bacco smoke. But this is not the worst
Of it, by half. The heat comes up into
the room through registers, which are
covered with iron grating. Into these
registers. through this grating, are
thrown all the stumps of cigars, and the
smokers are constantly splitting into the
came receptacles of poisonous filth. This
tobacco juice. and these cigar stumps,
are heated, and the distilled poison is
thrown up into the room and breathed,
in connection with the accumulated
smoke. This foul air is taken into the
lungs, and thus thrown into the blood,
and the whole system is poisoned. Is it
any wonder that men die? The only
wonder 10 that any man could live in
such place.

Kentucky is Sovereign State" and
under the new pacification policy, is do
ing bravely, and the soft heart of Presi-
dent Hayes no'longer bleeds forI the poor
negro. But it is folly for the Hayes or
gans to lie, and say, as they constantly
do, that all is lovely in the South. All
is lovely for murderous rebel Democrats;
but there is another side to this pacifica-
tion crime.
Read the following dispatch, which we
cut from the New York Times:
CINCINNATI, Jan. 1.-Two weeks ago
the notorious Grove Kennedy, who is
known to have killed half dozen men
in Kentucky, was, after a long and ex.
pensive trial, set loose to resume his law
less operations. Last night three color
ed men, who were merely suspected of
having knowledge of the murder Of a
white man, were killed by mob near
Lexington The murder of the white
man took place about two weeks ago and
a negro named Silver was Immediately
hanged for the crime. This was not
thought to be sufficient 10 vindicate the
law, and last night a mob was formed,
and proceeded first to the residence of
Tom Turner, near Brucetown They
called for him to leave his cabin and 60
with them, but he refused, saying II they
wanted to kill him they must do it there.
He would not submit to be blindfolded,
and,was shot in the presence ofhis wife. He
was found to day by the Coroner lying in
his bedroom and with four bullet holes
through his body, all mortal wounds. In
the woods near by were found the bodies

limb of tree Nobody in the neighbor.
hood could give any information as TO
the murderers of these men, except that
warrants for their arrest had been issued
the day before and had not been served.
There were seven men in theparty which
killed Turner, but none OF them could
be recognized by his wife. The affair oc-
Cured in a rich and thickly settled dis
trict, where the machinery of the courts
is supposed to be in full operation.
The Kentucky sovereigns also defy
Government officers, as witness the fol-
lowing:
LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. 1.-THE Moon
sinners of Wayne county repelled Gov
ernment force of thirty men Monday
last. seriously wounding an. officer, killing
a horse, and running th@ posse out OF
sight They are very strongly organized
and announce their purpose to resist ar
rest.
Even the good Cincinnati Times, which
would like to be a nice little organ Of
Hayes, is constrained to use little sar-
casm. as follows:
Are we to have a whisky rebellion in
KentuckyT'-[ Commercial.
Certainly not. IL will be brought to
the attention of the Unitad States reve-
nue. officials, in Kentucky. that they are
creating ill-feeling, and interfering with
pacification, by intering with the whisky
thieves 1t is only in the North that
the breaking up of crooked whisky rings
is justiiable

Address TO Sections.

Bishop Huntington, of the Protestant
Episcopal church, has q word to say to
sections from which they may profit,
A great deal can be done for auietness
in churches by the sexton. The most
perfect sexton / ever saw was an apostle
OF silence. His eye and ear and hand
were everywhere, and his genius for
forestalting and suppressing confusion
was wonderful, Before service he ALWAYS
changed his boots for slippers. He
glided about the aisies as noislessly az A
ghost. He made BOOKKEEPING a fne art.
Doors and windows we're fixed 90 that
they would never be heard. He took
care that no sound should come from the
furnace OF gas fixtures after the service
began. The fact was that this was not
q mere instinct of propriety or crafty
measure of success in his Office; it was q
constant answer of his believing and
humble heart to the solemn sentence,
"The Lord il in His holy temple" What
contrast to the clumsy, fussy, heavy
shod brother, in charge Of the stoves In
q rural sanctuary / remember, who was
sure to start uptwo or three times in the
midst Of prayers, sometimes when the
preacher wa doing his best to- get or hold
the attention Of his hearers, march
around from his seat to the fire, swing
open . stridulous stove door, punch the
sticks with q poker, and toss in an addi.
tional supply Of fuel, giving an another
thrill screech from the hinges ~ . finale

The Earth Not q True Globe.
From Good Words.

Our planet is not q true globe, because
of its former plastic condition before
the formation and cooling of the surface.
When the globe was soft it was more OF
less yielding, and then the rotation of
the earth to which l have referred tended
to drive off, as it we're, the matter in the
equatorial Begions; 50 that the distance
through the center of the earth between
the two surfaces as far as possible re-
moved from the poles of rotation, OF
those parts of the earth which the i'm
aginary axis comes through, is rather
greater than the distance between the
two points where the axis comes to the
surface. The reason of that fact, and
that it must have been 80, has been
beautifully established by several exper-
iments. That the earth was once hotter
than it is now is therefore proved, both
by the irregularities Of its surface, and
by its shape as a whole. We must not
imagine, however, that there has been
but one change. The minor irregulari-
ties are all gradually changing by inner
energies and the action Of air and water,
and It may be that even the largest ones
are young compared with the age of the
planets surface. Nor does the change
end here; the equatorial protuberence
itself may but after all mark point in a
great cycle of change, which has CON-
PEELED the earth to rotate now about one
axis and COW about another. Mathema-
ticians consider it highly probable that
the axis of the earth may have been in
ancient times very differently situated
to what it is at present, and, indeed,
that ait might have gradually shifted
through 10, 20, 80, 40, or more degrees,
without at any time any %perceptible
disturbance of either land or water"
Thus it appears that nature prevents
catastrophes by the very hugeness of the
scale on which she works.
