CIPHER COMMENTS.
Ho,v the Newspapers Talk About the De-
veloRmesats.
TNev York World-Dar,

Mr.. Weeds account of his own proceedings
Is perfectly straightforward, and there is evi-
IDENTIFY nothing about them Of which he is at all
ashamed. Mr.. Weed, we need not observe like
his experienced Republican namesake is a
practical politician. He found when he went
to South Carolina that Mr.. Tilden had undoubt-
edly carried the State and that it's vote would
be counted for him unless an untruth was GER
titled by the returning board, who were to use
the phrase of Judge Black, among "the most
redemptlOnless rogues on the face of the
earth" 1t came naturally into the mind Of
MIR. Weed, as a practical politician, that the
best way in which this calumny could be
averted would be to hire them to
certify the truth. He evidently had no
more compunction about it, being an ex-
perienced and horny-handed public character
like VIM. E. Chandler, than he would have had
about buying drove of fat pigs, if they had
been equally necessary to his purpose. His
negotiations were brought to nothing by the
successive refusals of Mr.. Edward Cooper, on
behalf of the national Democratic committee
and Of Mr.. Tilden on his own account, to give
him the money. All the help he could get
from Mr.. W. T. Pelton he got, but it did not
meet the emergency. Mr.. Weed evidently
enjoys the consciousness of having done his
duty, and the further consciousness that, if he
had had his way, Mr. Tilden, who was elected
President, would have been President instead
of Mr.. Hayes, who was not elected President:
in which case Mr.. Weed might have been now
engaged IN investigating a nefarious but hap
PLY defeated conspiracy to steal the vote of
South Carolina for Mr.. Hayes.

Death of p. j. Callan.

Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock Deputy
Sheriff P. J. Callan died at the residence of
John Grace, Esq. The deceased fell VIC
tim to the dire and quick inroaSs of con-
sumption. His sickness has been of short
duration, but much of his suffering has been
allevlated by the watchful care of friends.
Young Callan was only 81 years old,
and was young man of sterling
worth and ability. His was nature which
endeared him to friends, and secured him
the esteem of all with whom officially or
socially he was brought in contact. He
served as deputy sheriff under Major Becht's
administration, and was lately replaced in
Office by Sheriff King. In his last moments
ne was tenderly cared for by sister, and
his numerous friends shared with her,
watchful hours at his bedside, and sorrow
with her at his untimely demise. Notice of
the time of his funeral will be given here
after.

very penitent and tearfully sorry woman
was she. Capt. Clark had just brought her
up from Geist's jewelry store, on Third
street. There she was charged with having
conducted herself as kleptomaniac. In
fact, the proceeds of her frenzy, consisting
OF four pairs Of earrings, set
or two of ladies' jewelry and an
imitation coral set were found concealed
about her person. The story goes that
she came into the store about 4 o'clock and
asked to see coral set, imitation. She was
accommodated. Her con duct was peculiar,
strikingly so. While she handled the cases
of cheap jewelry she was closely watched.
She was seen to conceal card or two in her
pocket. The purchase of coral set was
made, and she started for the door. Then
an employe of the store detained ner, &C.
cused her Of theft, which she stoutly
denied. Captain Clark happened to be near
at hand and was called in. The charge by
the jeweler was repeated, and the woman
taken to the station. She was searched, and
the above mentioned gewgaws were found on
her. The woman was terribly frightened.
and wept despairingly. She claimed to
know nothing about the act which had
brought into her possession of the iewelry.
Pretty soon it was discovered that she
was laboring under an excitement not alto
gether derived from her detection in steal
ing. The odor of whisky steamed up along
with her protestations of innocence. No
body knew her land at first she declined to tell
her name. Finally she gave it, vehemently
protesting against her husband being told.
Then followed a rambling story of how she
came to do it. She had been out with her
mother, having come over from her homo

there they had INDUCED. Afterwards she
accompanied her mother to the depot, and
saw her off for Mendoza, near which place
she lives. Retracing her steps up jackson
street, she repaired to jewelry store to buy
a pair of imitation coral earrings
After that she knew nothing. This recital
was accompanied with bitter tears, and she
piteously implored to be released.
The woman is young, and claimed to have
two babies at home. Her worst fear seemed
to be that her husband would learn of it
''and then, what will he do. lcannot bear
to face him."
The deep contrition of the girl, she said
she was only 18, plainly showed
she was new to the business. Likely the
glitter of jewelry and her befuddled condi-
ton tempted her for the first time to COM
NIT an act, which evidently she painfully re-
grets.
The sad news of his wife's arrest was COM
munlcated to her husband, and he fastened
to her presence. He had no reproaches for
her, but ne stirred himself to get her released.

Iitde7e Hatst Haze Refused.

Mr.. Weed lifts the curtain which was drop
ped at that dark point, and testifes that Mr..
Pe|ton came to Baltimore without money, and
told him that the proposed transaction had
come to the knowledge of Mr.. Tilden, who con-
demned and forbade it. We can discover no
improbability in this testimony. 1t is evident
that the bribe was not paid since the return
ing board decided in favor of the Hayes cleo
tors. There is no other perceptible reaa3n
for the failure of the negotiatYar
than gthe refusal of Mr. Tilden
to furnishssS for consummating it.

The Baptism Of the Israelites.

40 the Editor of the Standard:
Inyour issue Of July 18th, | see a
communication from Bro. Ego, in
which he asserts that st. Paul in his
reference to the baptism Of the Israel
ties, recorded in 1 cor. 10, 1, 2, desired
to keep before the church the true
mode of baptism.
The Bro. makes mistake with ref
erence to the subject matter under
consideration by the apostle.
There is in the verses referred to,
no allusion to the mode Of christian
babtism at all. By reference to chap
ters eighth and ninth i'll connection
with the tenth, we find that the church
at Corinth desired to fellowship and
commune with idolaters, and thus
they were found uniting and partici-
pating with them in their banquets.
The apostle goes on, producing ar
guments showing that it was wrong
and unlawful for christians to have
fellowship with idolatrous worshipers,
and that by so doing they were iden-
tifying themselves with them, and
were really partaking of the sacrifices
offered to idols. (See chap. s.
Now, against any such participa-
ton, Paul timely and solemnly admon-
ishes them, and in order to impress
them with the unlawfulness of such a
course, the apostle calls their attention
to the history of the Israelites, show
ing them that they too, were the peo-
pie of God, that they had been dedica-
ted to Moses and to God in their bap-
tism ''in the cloud and in the Sea"
that they had been favored with drink
miraculously procured from the flint
rock, and with food from heaven;
yet, notwithstanding all these things,
they had been lead to forget and for
sake God, and as the result of which
had been destroyed.
Now the apostle, by their example,
gives them timely warning, showing
that similar course of conduct would
in all probability result in destruction.
And Of this fact the apostle would not
have them to be Ignorant" :" See
Clark, Gill and others.
That pouring is the true christian
action of baptism, Bro. Ego endeavors
to prove by reference to Psalm II, II,
which reads: THE clouds poured out
waters" &c. Then he says: "This
pouring down upon the people st.
Paul calls baptism" 1t is certainly
obvious to all Bible students that the
apostle had no allusion to water bap-
tism at all. Baptism is sometimes
used in the sense of dedicating, initia-
ting and it is in this sense the word
baptism is to be understood here.
But were it necessary, we might prove
that there is a sense III which they
were all immersed.
Now [ desire to call attention to
the following, among other things:
1. As the Israelites passed over i'll
the night, it is absolutely y certain that
it was the pillar of fire" that was
over them, and not the pillar OF
cloud" for it is expressly said that

DEAR SIR have just finished read
ing an ''editorial" in your issue of this

which lately appeared in the Demo
crat, of this city, called can Address
to the Colored Voters Of Ohio" and
purporting to have been written by

Now, [ don't intend to be too severe,
but | venture the assertion based upon
my knowledge Of the sentiments of
the colored voters throughout the
State, that there is not colored man
in the whole State of Ohio, who is a
Democrat from principle, and further,
that no colored man wrote the address
published in the Democrat. | fully
agree with you as to the friendship of
the Democratic party for the Negro,
and whenever [ see them making any
attempt to seduce colored men from
the Republican party, | am disposed
to become indignant, for their pro-
fessions of love and friendship are all
lies.
Hoping that success may perch upon
our banners all through the State in
October, and pledging myself to do
all | can for the success of the grand
old party. | remain, &c.

The Democratic politicians have for
years been charging that the rauk and
file of the party have been selling
their votes to the Republicans. In
our own county Democrats have come
into court and sworn that they sold
their own votes, and the votes Of their
father, brothers, &C., for sums ranging
from two dollars up to twelve dollars;
but no jury would believe such fellows
under oath. Then the Democrats in
the Ohio Legislature passed what they
call the Seitz Law, making it a peni-
tentiary offense for a candidate to give
even cup Of cold water to a voter,
if such gift is intended to influence
his vote. Still the Democrats are not
happy and are screaming and yelling
that the Republicans are raising large
sums of money with which to buy
Democratic votes.
In this county some small politi-
clans are so hungry for office they
had concosced scheme to buy votes
by prposing to the taxpayers to per-
form the duties Of the office for one
half of the legal fees. The eyes of
sharp lawyers are upon these fellows,
and if they put that proposition into
a tangible shape, pop they go into the
penitentiary, as it will be an open vio-
lation of the Seitz Law.

Buford, the man who killed Judge
Elliott, in Kentucky, was found
guilty of murder, and sentenced to
the Penitentiary for life. Had the
crime happened in almost any other
State, Buford would have been prompt
ly hung, as this was a most foul, cow
ardly and causeless crime. The reas-
on assigned for the murder, by Buford
himself, was that Judge Elliott had
given decision which went against
him, in lawsuit in which he was en-
gagged. 1t looks as though it was
reaching the extreme depths of crime,
when a criminal murders a Judge for
administering the law. But human
life is cheap in Kentucky.

One Of the most hardened criminals
of whom we have ever read was Alfred

faced the dangers of earth, and now |
am not afraid of the Old Man above"
Here was man who doubtless dis
credited the story Of the crucifixion;
who was so fully possessed of the Evil
One, that he refused to receive, much
less believe, Gods word, through the
teachings of His servants. And the
worst of all was, he was an Ohio man.
