MYSTERIOUS.

On Wedn' sday OF last week Hon John
L. Vance, late member of Congress from
this district, left his home in Gallipolis,
to 90 to Washington City. When he got
to Cincinnati he telegraphed to Senator
Irvine Dungan at Columbus, TO meet him
in Cincinnati. Mr.. DUNCAN went, and
was with Mr.. Vance until Thursday after
noon. Vance did not tell him why he
had sent for him. Soon after Vance ar
rived in Cincinnati he received a letter
purporting to be from a soldier who had
served under him (Vsnce) during the
war. The letter stated that the soldier
was in Covington sick, and desired
Vance to call and see him. Vance left
the hotel in Cincinnati at six on Thurs
day evening, and has not been heard of
since. We get most of the above facts
from Mr.. DUNCAN.
Vance had been in poor health for
some months. Whether he has been
murdered, or whether he has became in.
sane and committed suicide, or wandered
off are matters of conjecture.

We do not suppose that the following
account of the effects of tobacco poison
will stop a single one of the twenty mil

who are now slaves of the foul habit, or
cause any Of them to use a single cigar
less than they do at present
One day last week the Cincinnati pa
pers contained the following dispatch
from Columbus:
Bob. Hurlbut, the Governors Private
Secretary, to day had his entire tongue
amputated for cancer. The operation
occupied an hour. and was performed by
DIR. Sterling, Of Cleveland, wno says the
cancer resulted from nicotine poison.
Small hopes of his recovery"
The Ohio Statesman gives a more par
ticular account of this horrible case:
DIR. Emminger, dentist Of this city,
extracted the two front under teeth, pre-
paratory to the operation. Dr. Sterling
then made a vertical incision from the
center of the under lip, downward. over
the chin to the throat, throwing to the
right and left the flesh of the chin bare
TO the jaw bone. then by the use of the
saw. separated the under jaw in the cen
ter enabling the separation of the aw.
each section outward, these being pressed
and held apart. The doctor then, with
his knife, slit the tongue vertically from
the tip backward, to near its root; then
each half OF the tongue was cut off, just
back Of the cancer which had spread it.
self two thirds over the tongue-so that
nearly three-fourths of that organ was
cut off Then after which, the bones of
the jaw were put in place. carefully adj
justed and secured, to reunite under the
healing processes of nature. The flesh
was returned to its place carefully and
and skillfully sewed, the chin bandaged,
and the work, so far as the operation was
concerned, finished. Of course. during
the operation, the patient was kept un-
der the influence of chloroform, but not
to the extent as to be entirely uncon-
scious."

A Minister Assaulted "A Disgraceful
Affair.

We clip the following from the Will
mIngton journal of last week:
"One Of the most outrageous things
which has come to our ears for some
time, happened one day last week at
Taylorsville, a small place in Highland
county. As is well known by a number
Of our citizens, Elder Bingham has sew
eral places which he visits regularly every
week. Among his other appointments is
Taylorsville One day last week he was
at that point and preached to large corr
gregation during his stay. His subject
was Christianity VS. ln6delity.' and in
the course Of his remarks he bore down
rather heavily on the doctrine Of
the latter and. raised the standard Of
Christianity pretty high in the opposite
direction. The services were closed in
due form and as Mr. Bingham was pass
ing down the aisle toward the door, an
individual stepped up to him and tried
to get up a controversy The reverend
gentleman paid no attention to what he
said when the stranger struck him with
a pair of brass knuckles, telling him to
the floor and rendering him senseless =
At first Mr.. Bingham thought he had
been shot. but on recovering his senses,
found out that he was mistaken. Quite
a sensation was created as soon as the
congregation learned what had happened,
but no one took a hand in the difficulty
Mr.. Bingham remained with a member
of his congregation over night and the
next morning the matter was amicably
adjusted, but not in the manner it should
have been. The law should have been
allowed to take its course.
Mr.. Biugman's face is badly bruised,
but in the course OF few days it will be
all right again.
The above article in the journal was
the first intimation of the affair that we
had heard. and we were at first inclined
to doubt its truth, but upon inquiry we
learn that the facts as stated in the Jour
nal are in the main correct. The assault,
however, was not committed in the
church, but outside. and we learn that
the assailant denies using brass knuckles
or any other weapon. The individual
who committed the assault is DR.. Moore,
of Taylorsville, n man who has heretofore
sustained a fair character and is respect
ably connected.
We learn that DR. Moore had relig-
ious controversy with Elder Bingham a
day or two before the sermon was preach
ed, to which tact the Elder referred in
his sermon, using language that so IN
censed Moore that he took this disgrace
full way Of obtaining satisfaction. 1t is
said that Moore was under the influence
of liquor at the time, but that is no ex-
cuse for his conduct He would have
been prosecuted had it not been for the
leniency of Elder Bingham, who agreed
to settle the matter by Moore paying him
SIS. We hope, for the good name OF our
county we may never have another such
disgraceful occurrence to record"
We find the above in the Hillsborough
News. Mr.. Bingham had charge OF the
Christian Church at this place several
years. We were well acquainted with
him. He was a gentleman, in every re
spect, and he must have changed very
much if he said or did anything improp-
er, either as a minister or as gentleman.

A Speech Delivered in the Ohio House of
Representatives, by DR.. A. B. Mona
han, on Wednesday, March 20, 1878,
on the Bill Recognizing the Reform
Farm for Boys at Lancaster.

Mr.. SPEAKER: / wish to make few re-
marks on this iniquitous bill-a bill reor-
ganizing the Reform Farm for boys. or
rather disorganizing that institution,
which has been, and now is, the pride of
the State. under its present head, and
able management.
Mr. Howe, who has been the Superin-
tendent Of that Institution for nearly
thirty years, under all administrations
has made the Farm model Of beauty and
efficiency, and this Legislature now by
the passage of this bill, proposes to dis
miss him from the Institution, and place
of necessity, will be inexperienced in its
management.
What reasons, Mr.. Speaker, are there
to be offered to this House, and to the
people Of this great common wealth, for
this change? Are there any charges
of incompetency or malieasance in the
office OF the Superintendent or any other
charges made against Mr.. Howe. either
as against his character as a citizen, or
his duties as an officer? None that have
heard-none have been offered in this
House, or to the people OF the State.
When the bill came before this House
to reorganize the Penitentiary, there were
charges of mismanagement, OF cruelty in
the treatment of the inmates, of starva-
ton and tainted food being used, and
other charges of a grave character. !
then said that there was no evidence to
sustain these charges that believed the
charges were untrue; yet voted for the
appointment Of committee of this House
to investigate the truth or falsity of the
charges-subsequent evidence given be-
fore that investigating committee, shows
how little there is to sustain the news
paper charges. But if the charges were
true, then there were good and valid rea.
sons why that Institutions should be
recognized.
The Democrats being in the majority,
have a right to the Peuitentiary and to
its management.
Here Mr. Bloom asked alquestion. Do
! understand the member from Jackson
to say that the majority OF the inmates of
the Penitentiary are Democrats, and

Elect a man to tho State or National
Legislature. and the first idea apparently,
that enters his head, is that he is destin.
ed to be a reformer. The second idea
which takes possession Of him is, that he
who can introduce the greatest number
of bills, or resolutions, is serving his con.
stituents and the cou ntry to the best
purpose. He feels that he is sent there
to legislate, and legislate he must He

or something. The result, generally,
amounts to this That the wise law.mak-
ers will spend days, weeks, and months
wrangling over a reduction in the com
pensation Of some small contractor, or
the employees of our public institutions.
and will succeed, perhaps, in saving to
the Government few hundreds of dol.
lars year, in that direction. This sue.
cess will create in the average legislators s
mind, a settled conviction that he is
reformer of the first class. The amount
thus saved to the people is paraded be-
fore them as a bright and shining exam
pie of what craftsmanship can accomplish
There is one feature about this kind of
reform, however that the people should
not lose sight of-that it not infrequently
requires about ten thousand dollars
worth of legislation to save. in the way Of
retrer chment, one thousand dollars; for
your legislator, during all his squabbling
over the administration OF the public in-
stitutions. pockets his salary, with clock
like regularity.
