thing as peaceably splitting them up
into the parts of which they were
made. There never was, and never
will be, any such thing as peaceable
secession. But here comes Mr.. Dav-

this wretched evil; the South should

A Typographical Crime.

Rossiter Johnson writes: If one
book must be singled out and doomed
never to receive decent Typographical
treatment, 1t should have been any
other than the Bible. l should like
to see what could be the effect of Civ.
Ing 1t fair chance. 1 believe II
would be read if IL were made read
able. We ought. to have one edition
of 1t without foot-notes-unless In
rare cases where these were absolute
ly necessary. Where the italicised
words are Necessary to complete and
idomatic rendering they should
be printed In plain Roman, when
not thus necessary they should be
dropped.
Instead of verses we should have
paragraphs. and all figures and indi-
cations of the verses abolished. Con-
versations should be printed In brok-
en- paragraphs, with quotation marks
just as a novel. Poetry should be
printed as poetry. Instead of being
crowded into one volume, the book
should be In four or five moderate du-
Odecimo volumes with large type and
good paper, so that II could be at once
held out without firing the arm to
read without straining the eyes. FL
nally this book should have a good
analytical index. A cumbrous con-
cordance is not an index, and does
not serve the purpose of one. If pre-
sented In such form, the Bible
might be enjoyed as literature and
Iperhaps better understood as divine

| Special Telegram to the Daily News.
OwEGo, N. Y, Aug. 14.-this place
has very remarkable, but an entire
ly true story, which is the general
topic of conversation.
In 1853 man named O'COnner kept
the Side Hill House, three miles north
of Owego. He was arrested In that
year, tried and convicted for passing
counterfeit money, and sentenced to
two years i'm the State Prison. He
was married and had two children.
He never returned home, and his wife,
believing him dead, was married in
1859 to a shoemaker named Berry. A
day or two ago O;Connor made his ap-
pearance in Owego. Berry, his wife's
second husband, was absent from
home. O'COnnor obtained an inter
view with the wife. She accompanied
him to Hornellsville, where one of his
children, a daughter who had grown
up and married during his absence.
lived. Berry coming home and find
ing out the situation, went to HOr-
nellsville. found his wife, and asked
her If she would go back or intended
to live with OConnor. She decided
to return to Owego. O'Connor left on
the next train, taking with him son,
a young man aged II years. He is 60
ing to South America. He says hat
after being released from Auburn
Prison he went to st. Louis. There

To Tighten, Wagon Tires.

1 have found the following way to
tighten wagon tires to be successful
Apply leather rings between the
shoulders on the outer ends of the
spOkes and the corresponding por.
tiOns of the fellies, which may be
done as follows: Procure g. numb ber of
small pieces of leather, from an inch
and half to two inches In diameter
with sharp knife and compasses, or
with cutting punch, make round
holes in the centre of these pieces,
and make straight cut from the hole
to the outer edge of the pieces so as to
form open rings. The holes must be
made ss size that will nicely fit
the lemons on the outer ends of the
Bspokes. Place O fulcrum on top of
the hub on which place your lever,
with its short end under the felly
near spoke; have an assistant bear
down on the outer end sufficiently to
raise the felly, and expose the shoul-
der and tenon of the spoke; open
your leather ring and fit 1t nicely
around the tenon, holding 1t to its
place while your assistant relaxes the
lever, and settles the felly firmly up
on the leather by blow or two on
the tire. Having repeated the pro-
cess with a sufficient number of
spokes to make the tire all right,
trim off the projecting leather even
with the surface of the spekes. and
your task will be done. IF your piec-
es of leather should be spongy, ham
mer them down some before using

REPUBLICANS.
Reasons Why They Should Support
Their Party
From Toledo Blade.

From Toledo Blade.
The question which every dlsaffect-
ed Republican should put to himself
before he commits himself against the
party is, Whether 1t is In any way
possible that he can secure better re-
suits by voting with some other party :?
If he will review all the elements In
this query we are satisfied that his an
swer wiA be IN the negative, and that
he will be compelled to admit that
not only can he not hope to better
himself, but further that he cannot do
so well. The Republican party is not
tall that any of US would like; many
of Its minor acts are opposed to our
ideas of right and expedlency, and
We frequently wish that some of its
Headers were different, but with sh
this there Is no mistaking the fact
that the worst of Republicanism is
much superior to the best of Democ-
racy. There is nothing which any
Republican can complain of that will
be righted, or even bettered, by the
success of the Democrats or the Ma
tionals, while there are many things
of much more Importance that will
be irretrievablY injured by the suc-
cess of those parties. The road to i'm
provement In any particular is
through the Republican organization.
1t Is the only one which has the ca
paeity or inclination to effect reforms.
Attempts at such by other parties are
simply thinly disguised schemes of
corruption. The Republican who
loves his country aud earnestly desires

her welfare, has no choice but to cling
to that party with whose administra-
tion is associated the most brilliant
epoch in our history; whose work is
far from being done, and which has
in its heart and brain more potential
tiles of good for thecountry Ia the fu-
ture than can possibly be embraced in
any or all the organizations opposed
toit. To build up and support the
Republican party is to do the most ef-
fective work for the good of the coun-
try. No patriotic man can in justice
to himself and his convictions permit
himself to be driven offfrom the grand
purpose by some disaffection upon a
question of minor importance, as all
questions which now divide Republi-
cans are.
