HOW HE GOT EVEN.

Didst ever meet the hand-shaking
bore? He called in the other day, hap
pening first in the press-room. Seeing
him coming and knowing his PEN
chant, the p, essman prepared himself
for the ordeal by slyly smearing his
own hand with printers ink. The
visitor came on, all unconscious of his
fate, reached out his iaandihle and re-
ceived an impression at one and the
same time. But ah, the artfulness of
the fellow! He spake not, he scowled
not, he made no sign. lie simply
walked around the room and through
the various rooms, and with engaging
impartality shook the hand OF every
one, editor-in- chief, t'local," the scis-
sors-man, the intelligent compositor,
proof-peaders. devil and all. Not one
escaped. He then took his leave So
berly and bccomingly, like one who
retires from a funeral service. And
then there was a rush for wash basins.

: the power and patronage of the Gov
, ernment the quicker corruption set
! in. 1t was to guard against this thai
our forefathers were jealous of every
} grant of power to the General Gov.
ernment and carefully reserved 70 the
States and the people all powers not
Indispensable to form aud preserve
the Union. The State Governments
are administered more purely than the
General Government precisely be-
cause they are nearer to the people,
the ultimate source of power. The
county governments are, as q rule,
purer than those of the States; the
township governments purer than
those Of the counties; and the school
districts purest of all. Precisely in
proportion to the nearness of the gov
ernment to the people is its purity and
efficiency. Ii this be not so, popular
| government is a delusion and = snare;
then the farther you can take govern
ment away from the inspection and
control of the people, the better and
purer 1t is then a monarchy or an
aristocracy is better than republic.
The people Of Ohio are now called
on TO decide between the Democrats
aud Republican parties ON this issue.
Let them say whether they are fit to
govern and control their elections of
public officers, or whether they want
their State officers and State electors
to be surrounded by bayonets and
spies and marshals, sent at the dicta-
tion of the party in power at WASH
ington, which, through these apple
ances, can control the elections and
drain the Treasury to paythe bills.
Fellow. citizens, 1 ask your suffrages
for the position of Governor of Ohio
as the representative of the people on
these Issues. l do not pretend that
they arc all the measures would like
to see adopted. I presume no man
has ever seen in one platform every
thing he wants accomplished. But
wish to divest this canvass of all else
than these three great principles and
measures of Government. did not
directly or indirectly seek to become
the Representative of the people on
them. But being chosen shall con.
duct the canvass with an eye single to
their triumph seeking NO personal ad-
vantage for myself or for any man or
faction, in the party, but only seeking
to have the people of this great Key
stone State of the Republic, arrest the
aggressions of that power which is at
once impOverishing the masses by its
finance policy, and threatening the
subversion of popular liberty by OBJ
literating all the boundaries of Feder-
al power.
In response to calls, able and elo-
quent speeches were also delivered by
General Durbin Ward, General A. J.
Warner, Hon. John G. Thompson,
General Manson, of Indiana, Col. J.
F. Mckinney, Hon. d. w. Hill, Judge
Thoman and General James B. Steed-
man.

PETER AND HIS GAL.

I hitched my cheer up close to hern
and shet my eyes and tremblously sed
"Sal, you're the very gal I've been
hankerin' arter for long time.
"I love you all over-from the foot
of your sole to the head of your crown,
and don't keer who knows it; and il
you say so, we'll be jined in the holy
bonds of matrimony. f. pluribus
Union, glora Monday morning, sic

as tho had throwd like an alligator.
I felt SO relieved. With that she fecht
a scream, and after awhile she sez:
Peter"
"What is it. Sal?" sez I.
Yes" sez she, a hidin' of her face.
You may depend upon it, I felt orful
good.
"Glory! glory!" sez 1.
"I must holler, Sal, or I'lI burst
open.. Hoory hoory! l can do any
thing; I can jump over ten rale fence
or do anything "a feller could, or would
or Orter do"
With that I sOrter slOshed myself
down by her and clinched the bargain
with kiss. Talk about your sugar
talk about your molasses-talk about
your night blooming serious!
They warn't nowhar; you couldn't
have got me to come nigh 'em; they
would have tasted sour arter that.
O, broom straws and sOrgum laases
OH 'em! eff Sally's daddy hadn't q
bawled out, "It's time for all honest
folks to be in bed," do believe I'd a

" Married!' ~ bawled dad.

ABOUT SUN.STlsOK f..

The following hints from DIR. james
of the New York Board of Health
will.be found very seasonable just now
"Sun-strOl<e is caused by excessive
heat, and especially it the weather is
muggy." 1t is mere apt to occur on
the second, third or fourth day of q
heated term than on the first. Loss OF
sleep, worry, excitement. close sleep
ing-rooms, debility. abuse of stimu-
lants, pre,lispose to it. 1t is more apt
to attack those working in the sun, and
especially between the hours of eleven
o'clock in the mOrningand four O'Clock
in the afternoon. On hot days wear
thin clothing. Have as cool sleeping
room sas possible. Avoid loss of sleep
and all unnecessary fatigue. If work
ing indoors and where there is artifi-
cial heat-laundries, &c.-see that the
room is we'll ventilated. If working
in the sun wear a light hat (not black
rs it absOrbs heat,) straw, &C., and put
inside of il on the head wet cloth or
a large green leaf; frequently lift the
hat from the head aud see that the
cloth is wet. Do not check perspira-
ton, but drink what water you need
to keep it up, as perspiration prevents
the body from being overheated. Have
whenever possible, an additional shade,
as thin umbrella, when walking, q
canvas or board cover when working
in the sun. When much fatigued do
not go to work, but be excused from
work, especially after eleven o'clock
in the morning on very hot days, If
the work is in the sun. If q feeling of
fatigue, dizziness, headache, or exhaus-
ton occurs, cease work Immediately,
lie down in a shady and cool place /;
apply cold cloths to and pour cold wa
ter over head and neck. If any one
is overcome by the heat, send imme-
diately for the nearest good physician.
While waiting for the physician, give
the person cool drinks of water, or cold
black tea or cold coffee, if able to swal-
low. If the skin is hot and dry, sponge
with or pour cold water over the body
and limbs, and apply to the head
pounded ice, wrapped in q towel or
other cloth. If there is no ice at hand,
keep a cold cloth on the head, and pour
cold water on it, as we'll as on the body.
If the person is pale, very faint, and
pulse feeble, let him inhale ammonia
for a few seconds, or give him a tea
spoonful of aromatic spirits Of ammo
MIA, in two teaspoonfuls of water with
4 little sugar.

that boys mother and mine were twin
sisters, and yet we amt cousins" The
girls guessed at it for half an hour, and
then gave it up. Is there any solu-
ton to it, Mr.. BrOwn?" one of the
girls asked. ''Oh, yes" he replied,
"it's easy explained-that boy lied"

THE PRINTER,s MuAwATHA.

THE PRINTERsS HlA AWATA
Should you ask us Why this dunningr
Why these sad complaints and murmurs
Murmurs loud about delinquents,
Who have read the paper weekly.
Read what they have never paid for.
Read with pleasure and with proht,
Read OF church affairs and prospects,
Read the news both home and foreign,
Read the essays and the poems.
Full of wisdom and Instruction.;
Read the table OF the markets,
Carefully corrected weekly
Should you ask us why this dunninEf
From the printer. from the mailer.
From the kind old paper maker.
From the landlord. from the devil"
From the man who taxes letters
With stamp of Uncle Samuel
Uncle Sam the rOwdies call him;
From them all there comes message
Message kind but fltly spoken.
"Pleass to pay the bill you owe u.s."
Sad it is 10 hear this message,
when our funds are all exhausted.
When the last greenback has left ms.
When the nickeis all have vanished:
Gone to pay the paper maker.
Gone to pay the landlords tribute.
Gone TO pay the clerk and devil,
Gone to pay the faithful mailer,
Gone ts pay old Uncle samuel,
Uncle Sam the rOwdies call him
Gone to pay for beef and Bridget,
Gone to pay the faithful parsoD.
Sad it is to turn our ledger.
Turn the leaves of this old ledger.
Turn and see what sums are due us.
Due for volumes long since ended,
Due for years of pleasant reading,
Due for years Of anxious labor.
Due despite our patient waiting.
Due despite our constant dunning.
Due in sums from three to twenty.
