In Defiance county, Ohio, every town
ship Treasurer, save one, is defaulter
And what is more there is only one
Republican Treasurer in the whole
county, and he is the one who is not q
defaulter. Apropos uf this, take the case
of Butler and Warren counties in the
same State. They lie alongside of each
other as do Jackson and Lafayette in
Missouri, aud the population, soil and
everything similar. Butler has always
been Democratic, Warren always anti
Democratic The one WAS the home OF
John B. Weller, the other Of Tom Cor
gin. Butler county has lost one half a
million dollars by Democratic dishonesty
and defa!cations. Warren county has
never lost a cent Butler county is the
home of reformers while Warren has
never had any of the breed.-K C..

In lola, Kansas. Sept. 9th, 1879, CARRIE Es.
rELLA ANDERSON. eldest daughter of T. T. ono
:. NJ. Anderson, aged years, months and
. days.
She sleeps in death, she now il gone
To the bright realms above.
The richest gem by angels borne
To deck the throne of love.
She was flower too pure for earth,
Too beautiful, too fair,
TYansplanted she has gone to bloom
And thrives in Heavenly air.
She is gone, but there fingers still
A thought in memory dear,
And ever will, of those blessed hours
Ofsweet communion here
The parents wept, but angels sang
In soft and sweet accord,
And welcomed the transplanted flower
In the garden Of the Lord.
The parents wept; they will not weep
When all their days are run,
Aud ut the gate of paradise
They will meet their darling one.
But weep Motive should not wish her back
In this drear world again,
Exposed to life s tempestuOus storms
OF sorrow, grief and pain.
Then weep no more, let mourners
No more their loss deplOre,
We soon shall meet in Heavens CLINE
Where we shall part no more.

the Salisbury, N. C. soldiers reunion
has created little excitement. The
letter closes as follows:
There were few Union soldiers in
North Carolina during the war. though
we believe the people generally were
opposed to secession and will say that
your meeting, if confined to the surviv-
ing soldiers of North Carolina, will be in
fact a Confederate reunion, where /
would certainly be out of place. All
soldiers in their social reunions glOrify
their deeds of herOism, and this reunion
will hardly be an exception, and it
wonld be a strange sight for Gen. Sher
man to cheer the victories ofhis enemies,
and respond to the claims that because
the soldiers of North Carolina were
brave and true to their State and section,
their cause was as sacred as ours, which
finally triumphed, and made our Union
| more glorious and more respondent than
before. Were present and you should
suppress this natural feeling ! would feel
myself an intruder, marring the national
happiness of the festive occasion. know
that the soldier element was the first To
lay aside the angry partisan feelings of
| the war and are now leaders in the new
epoch which is sure to add wealth and
prosperity to our whole country, and
when some occasion arises when we may
all meet on common ground in North
