AN OHIO WONDER.
A Living Petriasd Child in Tuscarawss
Cincinnati Enqulrer.)

NEW PHILADELPHIA Ohio, Dec.
4th.-A short time since, it will be
remembered, brief mention was
made in the Enquirer concerning
little child in the family of Jos.
Kinsley, near here, that had COM
menced to petrify. Your CORES.
pondent visited tho family to-day,
and learned the following particu-
lars with regard to this curiosity:
The child is about two years OF
age, and in the month of July last, +,
while it was being nursed by its
father, sudden hardening OF the
limbs was noticed. Since then the
hardness has increased and spread
over the entire body. The hands
are drawn shut and its limbs are
bent SO that it has no use of them.
The head, neck, arms and legs are
now so hard that not the slig htest
indentation can be made on them,
nor could any petrifactiou be
harder. The limbs seem bloodle SO,
and are cold as marble. It has
some appetite, and at times tries to
talk. A living petrified child is
considered in this section a curios-
ity without parallel, and hun
dreds of people are flocking TO Mr..
Kinsley's to see this wonder. Med
ical men are dumbfounded, and can
give no explanation of the singular
phenomena.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-12-25

that men not elected by the people
should dare to hold office. II the
President had come to this conclu-
sion some forty-five months ago,
and had peremptorily refused to
benefit by the Returning Board in-
fanny, he would have occupied a
much more exalted station in the
history OF his country than he can
ever hope to do now. But in spite
of Its inconsistency, the sentiments
of Mr.. Hayes as to men occupying
offices to which they were not
elected is a just one. Democrats
hope that no member of their par
ty in Maine will take any position
to which he was not fairly elected
by the people. If the law says
that Republicans were not proper
ly returned that is well and good ,
and new elections should be held.
But if any Democrat is found
reaching out his hand for that to
which he was not called by the
popular choice, in Maine or any
where else, we hope he will be
buried under q load of righteous
Indignation. The Democratic par
ty will wash its hands of all such
pretenders to Democracy.

"jUST OUR MAJORITY, BY
GEORGE!"
What Hannibal Hamlin Said When He Heard
the News from Maine.

AUGUSTA, Me-, Dec. 16-1l:30 p.
M.-The Council held session to-
day. The Committee on Elections
has not yet completed the canvass
of the returns. A few doubtful
cases still remain undecided. 1t is
expected that q complete result
will be reached and officially an
nounced on Wednesday,. Rumors
ere current upon the street that
the canvass is finished and the cer-
tificates already made out, but the
most diligent and persistent inqui-
ry fails to substantiate the story.
1t is understood, however, from
good authority that the Legisla-
ture will contain an opposition
majority In both branches of the
Legislature.
1t is understood that the Senate
will be composed of 10 Opposition
and II Republicans. The House
will consist Of II Opposition, 50
Republicans, and IL vacancies.
The Legislature returns from
Lewiston, Bath, Rockland, Port
land and Ssco, entitled to twelve
Representatives, are found to be no
returns at all, being "fatally de-
fectIve.n
The returns from many places are
"fatally defective,u and the Coun-
Gil in canvassing these has been
governed wholly by the Constitu-
ton and laws relating to such mat
ters.
Democrats and Greenbackers, as
we'll as Republicans, have been af-
fected by the canvass.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The
news of the result of the election
in Maine was received here this
evening. The venerable Hannibal
Hamlin was astOnished when he
heard that the Democrats had ac-
tually gone and done what they
had been threatening to do.
"What did you say the Demo.
cratic majority in the Senate had
been declared to be?' inquired Mr..
Hamlin.
"Nine," replied the Sun CORES
pondent.
"Just our majority, by George!"
exclaimed the old gentleman. ave
elected nine majority, and they
counted nine majority in.n
ut is said you think it possible
that the Democratic proceeding in
Maine will ALLEVIATE from the DEM
ocrats much Of the support they
have heretofore had in the StateW
inquired the correspondent.
There was time,n replied Mr..
Hamlin, "when L thought that the
illegal and arbitrary use of power
to perpetrate frauds would produce
some revulsion of feeling in State,
but it seems to me now as though
the worse the frauds committed by
the Democrats the more popular
their party becomes"
"DO you think, Mr.. Hamlin, that
the Democrats, being in majority
in the State Legislature, Will at
tempt TO elect Presidential electors
according to the Congressional dis
tricts in the State?n
mo, L do not" was the reply.
"If the New York Legislature
should attempt such thing, the
Legislature of Maine might retail
ate; but don't believe that the
New York Legislature will do any
thing of the sort"
