A SENSIBLE YOUNG LADY

a young lady was addressed by man
who, though agreeable TO her was dis
liked by her father, who would not consent
to their union, and She determined to clopc.
The night was fixed. the hour came, Inc
placed the ladder 10 the window, and in a
few minutes she was in his arms. They
mounted double horse, and were soon
some distance from the house. After some
time the lady broke the silence by saying
"Well, you see what proof have given you
of my election; hope you will make me a
good husband He was surly fellow,
and gruhy answered Perhaps ! may,
and perhaps not She made no reply, but
after a silence of some minutes, she sud-
denly exclaimed "Oh what shall We dol
| have left my money behind me in my
room" Then said he, 1--WE must 90
back and fetch it, They were soon again
At the house, the ladder was again placed,
the lady rcmountcd, while the ill-naturcd
lover remained below. But she delayed to
come, and SO he gently called, Are you
coming when she looked ont Of the win
dow and said perhaps ! may. and per
haps mott" and then shut down the window
and left him to return on the double horse

THE DEATH RATE or our country is get

being lcsscned every year, without any rea-
sonabc cause, the death resulting generally
from the most INSIGNIFICANT origin. At this
season of the year especially, a cold is such
a common thing that in the hurry OF every
day life we are apt to overlook the dangers
attending it and often find too late, that Il
Fever and Lung trouble has already set in.

SENATOR CoNKLING never speaks Of
Mr.. Hayes as the President of the Uni
ted States" In his speeches in the Ex-
eCutive session of the Senate he refers
to him as "Mr. Hayes" The Baltimore
Sun commenting on the fact says:
"The astounding fact yet stands, that
the whole administration of 40, 900 900 Of
people, and public policy, the Treasury
and its mighty operations, the vast pat
ronage of the Government, and the 100.
600 Offices at home and abroad are to day
in the hands of man who was not cleo
ted at all; and that even the fraudulent
title by which he claims to be "Presi'
dent" rests upon a forgery"

BowERsox, just acquitted for killing a
man at Independence, Richland county,
will find that it is not cheap proceed
ing to even shoot man in self defence.
He is said to have been worth about S.
900 before the shooting, but this amount
will be absorbed by the counsel for his
defense. He may feel good that he was
not sentenced to be hanged, but it does
seem hard that an innocent man should
be ruined financially to establish his in
nocence. First class lawyers receive
first class fees, and citizen had better
weigh the consequences before using
deadly weapons in self defence.

FEssLERs BONDS
MEN.

A large party Of Stark county lawyers
and interested parties are endeavoring
to have the Legislature pass law allow"
ing the bondsmen Of George Fessler late
Treasurer of this county, to settle with
the County Commissioners for thirty
cents on the dollar 1t Is claimed that
this is the best thing for the county, as
some of the bondsmen have failed, and
others are not worth the amount
of their bonds that If the county
attempts the collection of the same, they
will not be able to realize more than
one third, and have heavy expense for
costs besides. The subject needs to be
pretty thoroughly investigated before
ANYTHING of the kind is done, and II
there are any dark ways about this busi'
neas, let them be brought to light.--MdS'
i'lon american.
Well, yes, let our friend Of the Am'rt
can investigate, and let eight" in upon
dark ways" he knows or suspects any.
As a taxpayer he is an interested party"
as much interested" as any ofus, accor'
ding to his circumstances Among the
interested parties" referred to, are Dr.
L l.. Lamborn of Alliance, and Mr.. Jno. q.
Warwick, both heavy taxpayers. These
gentlemen, and others, would not favor
this bill, if they did not consider 1t best
for the taxpayers of the county, for 30
ciety, and for humanity.
Confding and worthy citizens have
been caught on the Fesser bond. The
question is-shal an expensive litigation
90 on, with no probability of the county
securing much, if any of the amount; or
shall the County Commissioners have
power 10 settle at not less than thirty per
cent?
We beg of our journalist friend not to
mix up a fair, square proposition with
dark" insinuations. The sureties, in
the main, as all will agree, are worthy,
industrious citizens, not blessed with an
over supply of this worlds goods, and a
bulJ Ouly uodub lulu w GhOhi "''h'N'
benefit to the county or any one in it,
We regret much to see the above arti-
Gle in the american. 1t is not from the
better judgment and good heart of our
friend. The heading of the article is
wrong. There is no proposition for ire
leasing Fessler's bondsmen," and it is
unfair to parade an article thus. The
whole thing pertains to the county and
to the sureties. 1t should be wholly dis
connected from George Fessler, and his
advisers and particepS Crimi1i0, if he had
any. Let our friends, one and all, con-
slider this question in this way, unmixed
with irritating matters Of the past, or
suspicious that do not belong to it.
The whole thing in a nut shell is
shall the suit, commenced by the County
Commissioners against the sureties, to
recover near fifty thousand dollars go on;
or shall the Commissioners have power
to settle at not less than thirty per cent :?

COMPENSATION OF COUNTY AUDITORS. =
According to the provision of a general
law, passed by the Legislature in 1877, it
would seem that County Auditors are
not necessarily effected by the reduction
contemplated in Booths fee bill. Sec l,
o, L., vol, "a, page 175, provides that
County Auditors be paid $1,000 per an
mum where the voting population of a
county is two thousand, and SIS for each
additional one hundred voters. The
Franklin county Auditor, under this pro.
vision. draws $4,000 on an enumeration
of 1920 voters. Another provision of
the same law authorizes the Commits.
sioners to allow % per cent more than
this sum for clerk hire, whenever a de-
cennial revaluation Of property is made.
The next revaluation is to take place in

THE Cincinnati Gazette says that "Sen-
ator Don Cameron, just reelected, is a 81
lent man. He never made speech in
bis life. But he is good thinker, and
has in his public career kept himself free
from corruptions and blunders. The
large vote cast for him indicates that the
Cameron dynasty in Pennsylvania is not
so near its end as some have supposed"
Of course not. AS long as there is any
hing left in Pennsylvania to steal, the
Cameron dynasty will be "thar or thar
abouts" The pure son-in-law, John j.
Patterson, is about to take up his resi-
dence in Pennsylvania, as his opportu-
mites for stealing in South Carolina no
longer exist.

WHEN Captain E. B. Ward, the Detroit
millionaire, died, three years ago. an in
ventory of his property was taken, and
its value placed at $5,377 ,454.3 .36, the
debts of the estate being scheduled at 81
440,437. Since the time of his death the
management of the estate has been in
the hands of men Of character and abil-
ity, but the process of bringing down to
hard pan has so affected the assets that
they only amount TO $3.50, O,O14, 40 against
liabilities of $64O,984,56. Instead of
leaving 100000, Captain Ward was
$29O,0OO behind. Iron and mining
stocks to the amount of $75O,OOO are
scheduled as ft only for the junk dealer.
