M The Cincinnati Enquirer is, in our
opinion, the most influential newspaper
in tte West. and is more generally recog-
nized than any other as the organ Of the
Western Democracy. In the contest be
tween the West and the East-for there
is such contest, blink it as we may-the
Enquirer is the ackno wledged newspaper
champion of the West. e
1t is therefore all the more to be re-
GREETED that the Enqnirers hostility to
many of the foremost Western Demo-
erats is so open andinveterate. The men
who in Congress or out Of Congress must
.fghtthe battles Of The West, loo often re.
ceive blows from the Enquirer quite as
telling as those received fre m their avow-
ed enemies OF the East.
The Enquirer cannot Whit this away
by q witty repartee. 1t has become a
matter of grave complaint among the
rank and Gle as well as among the leaders
OF the party, while In corresponding
degree it gives aid and encouragement to
those who seek to dominecr and oppress
the West.

MILroNsBURG, Quo, Dec q, 1877
Ed. SPIRIT: A few days before the
holiday season drew nigh the good people
of Miltonsburg and vicinity connected
with, and interested in, the M E Sunday
School OF this place, thought it proper
to have an enjoyable treat on Christmas
eve. And in compliance herewith. al
an early hour on said eve, the large
and email ones, and in fact almost every
body, repaired TO the M E. Church hall
and soon filed every pew to its utmost
capacity, and many could not obtain
seats.
On entering the hall we found 1t hand
somely decorated, despite the briel
time in which it was done, A MERRY
CHRISTMAS TO ALL, being the motto, sus-
pended in front Of the platform, whilst
upon it stood beautiful tree nicely dec.
GRATED and beautifully illuminated.
After the audience became seated our
very worthy Pastor, Rev. j. R. Smith,
opened the exercises with prayer, which
he followed with very appropriate lit
tie speech. After which our worthy
townsmsn, Dr. S. L Steward talked q
few minutes in his quite pleasant and en-
tertsining manner. which suited the &C
casion exactly. The next on the pro-
gramme was jingling OF bells in the
rear of the Church which announced the
coming Of kris Kringle," which fright.
ened little, bot delighted more, the lit
tie folks.
The next in order was the treat given
by Kris orders to little and "big" folk
alike, which was heartily appreciated by
all present. Thanks are due our Super
intendent, Mr.. ] M Eberle, for the
manner 10 which he conducted the affair,
and also to the choir, which performed
some excellent music during the exerci
ses. We conclude by wishing that all
may spend many such merry Christmas
ewes and a happy New Year. Yours
very truly, =, j. q.

HORRORS OF PLEvNA.

ing on the Dead and wounded.
FATE WREAKs VENGEANCE ON
THE TURKS,

LONDON, Dec 28.-Mr McGahan, the
correspondent Of the London Daily
News at Plevna, sends terrible story of
the state of things prevailing in and
around the captured town. Before the
recent great storm Plevna was simply a
charnel house. Modern warfare has no
parallel for It, and it's horrors can only
be compared to those which followed in
the wake of Genghis Khan or Timour.as
their savage Tartar hordes swept over
and desolated Asia.
DOGS DEyoUR TIE DEAD AND WOUNDED.
The famished dogs, Of which there are
always large numbers in every Turkish
town, were feeding on the eorpses Of the
dead and the bodies of the stiA living
wounded. The savage howls OF the
greedy brutes as they tore the putrid
flesh of the dead or crunehed the bones
between their teeth, the cries and groans
OF the wounded as they vainly struggled
with the dogs might be heard for miles
around and made the soul sick.
HORROR UPON HORROR.
Birds we're pecking at the skulls, hop
ping from body to body with beaks and
plumage besmeled with human blood
and screaming with fiendish delight
Dogs fought among themselves, and bird
struggled with bird for the possession
of morsel of human flesh and the most
|indescribable horror prevailed.
HIDEoUs SPECTACLE
In one house alene thirty seven dead
and fifty-three wounded Turks were
found, some OF the former in half de-
composed and pntrid state, and the
wounded in q condition that can be
more easily imagined than described
Some of the wounded were able to crawl
about and clutched at odd morsels OF
food that were found in the hands of the
dead, devouring it with feverish avidity
but thousands of them we're utterly
helpless and awaited death or succoI
with a listless fatalism.
DEAD AND woUNDED PILED LIKE WOOD
Eighteen hundred prisoners were hud
died together on the bank Of the Vid
and the horrors of their position equal
ed those of the great plague which raw
aged Europe in the fourteenth century
Living and dead we're piled together
promiscuously in heaps like wood, an6

carts available for this work, and tb'
confusion was indescribable.

A Practical Sweetheart.

A nice young man employed in the
Kansas Pacific office resolved the other
DAY to present his beloved girl with a
nice pair of shoes. He accordingly pro.
cured her measure and went into one of
the fashionable stores on Main street and
purchased two-dollar pair Of shoes. In
order to make the present appear more
valuable he marked five dollars upon the
soles of The shoes, and at his request the
clerk put receipted bill FOR five dollars
into one Of the shoes. The presentation
was made, and the lovers We're happy, as
lovers should be. But mark the sequel.
The girl examined the shoes in the day
light and was not satisfied. She was con
vinced that her lover had been cheated in
the purchase Of such pair of shoes at
thas price She decided to go and change
the shoes and obtain a better bargain.
Yesterday she appeared in the store and
selected pair Of shoes, price So so, and
politely requested the clerk to take back
the shoes for which she said her husband
had paid five dollars. The receipted bill
was produced in proof, and the boot man
found it impossible o go s'behinl the re-
turns The smart girl took her $500
pair of shoes, and obtained $l50 in
money, and went bone happy and salts
fed. The boot seller sent a bill for three
dollars to the young man, who promptly
paid the difference, but he thinks that
girl a little too smart for him.-Kansas

Blowing the Bellows.

During the journey OF the Emperor
Joseph II. to Italy, one of the wheels of
his coach broke down on the road. SO that
it was with difficulty he reached small
village at short distance. On his ar
rival there his majesty got cut at the door
Of the only blacksmith's shop the town
afforded, and desired him to repair the
wheel without delay.
Chat would do willing replied the
smith, 'but it being holiday, all my men
are at church, the very boy who blows
the bellows is not at home
Gan excellent method then presents
OF warming oneself,,' replied the EN- peror,
preserving his incognito; AMI he immedi-
ately set about blowing the bellows,
while the blacksmith forged the iron.
The wheel being repaired, six soils were
demanded for the job; but the emperor
gave six ducats. The blacksmith return
ed them to the traveller, saying:
''Sir, you have made mistake, and in
stead Of s:x soils, you have given me six
pieces Of gold which no in the village
can change
'Change them when and where you
can" said the emperor, stepping into his
carriage; ian emperor should pay for
such pleasure as that Of blowing the
bellows"
