Fessler, the ignorant and probably
three-fourths witted Stark County DEM
Ocratic Treasurer, has great faith in Gov
ernOr Bishop, as will be seen by the fol-
lowing, from the Dayton Journal;
The sublime confidence of Democratic
rascals in the merciful disposition of DEM
Ocratic Governors is beautifully illustra-
ted in the case of Fessler, the defaulting
Treasurer of Stark county. His lawyer
affectingly said to him:
"But why did you, did you leave Can
ada 90
'FWell," said Fess1er, blubbering, ssthey
told me that 1 would be convicted for
bringing stolen money into the country
and sent to prison, and then could new
er return to America. But they said if
came home I might be pGrdoned a0hee I had
serUed 0ut part Of my sentence, for am a
Democrat, you knot0!'
| Hence it would seem from Fessler's
communication to his lawyer that even
the Canadians comprehend the Democrat
ic situation in Ohio, and advised the cul-
| prit to come home and trust to Demo-
cratic Governor for pardon. 1t is quite
| likely that the pardon of the Democratic
| Treasurer of Van Vert county by Gov
| ernOr Bishop, after a service of only three
months, encouraged Fessler in the belief
that his term would be correspondingly
short. But he may rely on it that he will
not be pardOned before the election. That
would be bad policy.-Sprinqfel Republic

CHICAGO, July 16.-Reports from points
throughout the Northwest give accounts
of the terrible effects of the heat.
In Dewitt, Iowa, Charles Heicker and
r. Rolf, Germans, died from the effects
of the heat at Galesburg, Ill.
Several deaths and many cases of sun
stroke are reported at Des Moines.
Yesterday, at Bloomington, four per-
sons were struck by the sun and died soon
after. Some twenty other cases, none ia
tai, are reported to-day, and horses suf-
fer terribly. These are but isolated cases
taken at random, for nearly every town
| in this section has one or more cases tC
report. The thermometer has ranged
generally from 80 to 10 degrees.
The Tribune's Sioux City special says
| that at 80 this evening the weather sud
denly changed, and began blowing from
the north, and the thermometer dropped
20 degrees in two hours.

Hon. II. L. DICKEY has been nominated
for reelection to Congress IN the 18th
District. There is, as shown by the last
Presidential election, between 500 and
900 Democratic majority in the 11th; but,
with strong popular man in opposition,
Mr.. Dickey's chances for reelection will
be at least, of doubtful character. The
leading Republicans of the district think
that with good man, and an active can
Vass, they can carry the District. If,
however, the 11th District must be rep
resented by Democrat, there would be
as little objection to Mr. Dickey by the
Republicans as any Democrat they could
choose; but the intention over there is to
elect sound Republican.

THE Republican party has a right to
nominate any man of their party for the
Presidency they may prefer, for first or
second term, or even third term. There
is but one man who could be nominated,
however, for third term, and that is
Gen. Grant, and whatever the Republi-
cans may think about nominating him for
a third Presidential race, it is certain that
there Is no man of our party whom the
Democrats fear, in Presidential contest,
as they do General Grant

The Republicans of the Seventh CTole-
do) District yesterday nominated Hon.
Chas. Foster for Congress by acclamation.
Mr.. Foster does not live in that district
exactly, the street lying between his
house and the county line, but that is no
objection, The Republicans of the Sew
enth District want him, and if he will ac-
cept he will be elected. 1t would harmon
ize the Lucas County Republicans, too,
and that is worth something. 1t is to be
hoped Mr.. Foster will accept Cincinnati

Thus far, we have heard no other name
mentioned in connection with the nomi-
LatiOn for Judge of the Common Pleas
Court, on the Republican side, than
Judge Minshall, the present incumbent.
There may be others. Nor do we know
that Judge Minshall desires to be a candi-
date for reelection; but, if he does, there
is no reason, that we know of, why he
should not be reelected. He has dis
charged the duties of the position fairly
and honorably, and the people appreciate
him as a worthy Judge.

Organic Weakness

Immediately cured and full vigor restored.
This distressing affection-which renders life
miserable and marriage impOssible-is the pen
atty paid by the victims of improper indulgence.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses
from not being aware of the dreadful conse-
quences that may ensue. Now, who that under
stands this subject will pretend to deny that the
power of procreation is lost sooner by those
falling into improper habits than by the pru-
dent? Besides being deprived of the pleasure of
healthy offsprings the most serious and destruet-
i've symptoms of both body and mind arise. The
system becomes deranged, the physical and
mental functions weakened, loss OF provocative

tIOn of the heart indi digestion, constitutional de-
bility and wasting of frame. cough. eonsump-
tion, decay and death.

Circleville Union, 18th.
On Saturday morning, Sept. sth, 1879,
between the hours of one and two o'clock,
the stables of William Bauder, Isaac
Weaver and W. McAllister were con-
sumed by fire, together with horse, sew
eral vehicles, harness, hay, ETC., footing
up loss of ABOUT $4,000. The fire was
supposed to have been the work of an in
cendiary, but all efforts to find the guilty
party proved fruitless and the matter had
virtually been lost sight of, both on the
part of the public and losers, until last
Monday evening the circumstances were
again brought forward by young lady,
giving her name as Lizzie Azbell, calling
on Sheriff Hartmeyer's wife, for whom
she used to work, and informing her she
was the person that fired the stables in
question on that fatal night. She yielded
herself into the hands of the Sheriff, who
summoned Mr.. Bauder, to whom the girl
confession the deed, and stated that she
did it for spite. A special Grand Jury
was Immediately impaneled, who brought
in an Indictment for arson.

The Heated Term.

st. Louis and Milwaukee suffered most
from the effects of the heat yesterday,
about twenty cases of sunstrOke being re-
ported in each city. The death list in
st. Louis for the past week has been some
thing frightful. Over forty died on Mon
day from the effects of sunstroke. and
scores received injuries which may prove
fatal. It has been hot enough in Cfncin-
natl, but we have experienced nothing
like the terrible heat that afflicted our sis
ter cities North and West.-G Cincinnati Ga
zette, 18th.
ST. LOUIS, July 16.
The temperature in st. Louis has been
as high to-day as on yesterday, when there
were over 100 cases of sunstroke, twenty
two of them fatal, but a south wind has
given relief, and the total number of
cases of sunstroke to-day has been but
about fifty, with a fatal termination in
only thirteen cases. Even these cases
were chiefly caused by the heat of Mon
day, though terminating to-day. 1t is
worthy of note that in but one or two in
stances have the deaths been of well
known citizens, and in most cases have
/ the victims been drinkers. The total
/ death list from the effects of heat since
Wednesday last is now 142. Nothing like
such heat has ever been known in ST.
Louis before. The total number of cases
during the week, including the fatal ones
| is, as nearly as can be estimated, about
400.
