The constant Inflammation and liberation in my

Faith Destroyed in the Mercy, JustIc
and Goodness of Almighty God q


and Goodness of Almighty God CO
The Democratic party being in power
in this State, having elected a State tick
ct, large majority in the Legislature, it
is well enough to look at the records of
some of the officers who were elected in
the House by the Democratic members.
In the House Journal, vol. 73, p. 4lO, we
find the following:
Friday, March ,, 1877.
Mr.. Brunner offered the following res
olutions: H. J. R. No. 98.
WHEREAS, By fraud, perjury and the
most despicable practices known even to
pickpockets, R. B. Hayes has received
1s5 electoral votes, thereby becoming a
ruler of a disgraced nation; therefore
Resoloed, First, we are sorry for it, be-
cause it destroys our faith in the mercy,
justice and beneticent goodness of AL
mighty God, whom we have been taught
to believe was the defender and protector
of the right; in this that He has allowed
fraud, villainy and moral perjury to tri-
umph over truth, honesty and virtue.
In the House Journal, vol. 73, page 414
we find that on Thursday, March s, 1877,
the question being upon the motion of
Mr.. Oglevee, of Clark county, to expunge
from the Journal of March 2nd, the joint
resolution offered by Mr.. Drummer, the
following members voted against the mo-
ton to expunge said resolution of los
faith in Almighty God, viz: Baker, Of
Allen county; Drummer, Cogsil, Neall,
Norton, Soheble, Thresher, and Smith, OF
Licking.
The Democratic Legislature now re-
wards Brunner for his lost-contidence-in-
Observation-Disclosures resolu-
tions by electing him Clerk of the House
of Representatives and Neal, who voteC
against expunging from the Journal, wa

The Alligators ana the OK.

The OK went into the lake TO drink, and
was attacked by the alligator, whose
mouth closed on the fore leg OF the AMI

Immediately out OF tine wa'er, dragging
the alligator. Enraged with pain, the
poor animal reared and plunged wildly,

Meantime the edge of the lake was black
with the snouts of ailigators which had
smeled the blood that run from the OK
when tlrst struck ip the wa'er. Four or
five OF the monsters crawled out, and
with wide-open months started for the
attack. Meanwhile the OK loosened
the hold of his antagonist. and, smarting
under the wound, went in with infuriat>

Another was tossed far into the lake.
But the gallant OK was by false maneu-

caught him by the nose and pulled his
head under water, he soon fell victim

Danger ON the Border.
MCKENZIE AND THE THREATS OF THE
MEXICANS.


WASHINGTON, July 31.-From adj
vices received at the War Department,
there are strong indications of collision
between the United States forces under
Col. Mackenzie and the Mexican troops
under Oralles. Gen. Ord has communi-
Gated to the department the defiant atti
tude assumed by his portion of the Mexi-
can forces, and proposes to pursue the in
structions already given in reference to
the pursuit of outlaw raiders, regardless
of any threats made by the Mexican com
manders.
The Department OF State has for some
time been receiving complaints from
Mexico regarding the border outrages,
and in which is charged that there have
been repeated raids from the Texan side,
and many depredations upon Mexican
citizens and property. The department
has had no opportunity as yet to investi-
gate these allegations, but it is the
opinion that the only armed bodies that
have crossed the Mexican border from
the United States have been the troops
in pursuit of Mexican outlaws, and that
the charges are made with view of off
setting the effect of the marauding incur
sions which are constantly crossing from
Mexico into Texas.
