The New York Sun, Democratic,
says: ''There is no comfort for Dem
ocrats in the results Of the New York
election"
And, again it says: "The Albany
Evening Times quotes with unquali-
fed satisfaction from journal of
Watertown, we think it may be safe
ly stated that Sam. Tilden is political
ly finished
''This seems to be true; and it may
even more safely be stated that the
Democratic party seems to be politi-
cally finished also"

At last the time has arrived for the
Solid South to take sweet and eff
fectual revenge upon the Copperhead
party of the North. When thousands
Of blue-coated soldiers were knocking
at the doors of the Southern Demo-
Gratis, in the dark years that have
passed, the Copperheads of the North
promised to rise up, with their Gen.
Voorhees,, their Gen. Vallandigham,
and thousands of other blood thirsty
leaders, and strike in aid of their
Southern friends And they did
strike-they struck out for Canada,
many Of them. The South needed
their assistance then-they could not
succeed without it. Now the Demo-
cratic party North can hope for moth
ing without the aid Of the Solid South.
The Democratic party in the
Northern States has degenerated into
a mere political tramp-a beggar for
votes. It is not greatly to be won-
dered at that many Of the more con-
servative Southern leaders are becom-
ing thoroughly Disguised with it.

Last week we sent Van Bibber & Co.
the pay for our new rollers, and also
sent them a copy Of the Standard, SO
they could see how the rollers worked,
when they wrote the following:
CINCINNATI, Nov. 10, 1879.
Mr.. DAVIS MACKLEY, Jackson, O.:
Dear Sir-Your remittance in full to date is
received. Please accept thanks.
We like the looks of your paper very well.
1t is clear and clean. Slovenly printed papers
don't pay nowadays, and are much rarer than
when we started in, twelve years ago. The bet
ter the printer, the more particular he is about
his rollers. Yours truly,
VAN BIBBER & Co.
When we think back twenty odd
years, when we first became connected
with the Standard, we can note the
very great improvement in this one
particular. We have known a man
to spend all day melting his glue, and
stirring his glue and molasses, to make
one roller, and ten to one he would
spoil it, either in making a mistake as
to the proportion of his ingredients,
or in getting it out of the mold.
Now Van Bibber & Co. make the roll
ers for us for five presses. And they
are always good rollers.

BURLINGTON. O.. Nov. II. 1879

BURLINGTON, ", M OV. IL, 1879.
To the Editor of the Standard:
A serious cutting affray was report
ed Saturday last, but the rumors are
so conflicting, that it is hard to get at
the facts. Lou Davidson, quite res
pectable young man, Of this village, is
steward on the boat Fashion, received
a sickening cut. some say, across the
forehead, beginning at the right tenn
pie; others claim that his throat is
cut. The cutting was done with IA
zor in the hands Of a colored man,
formerly cook on the Fashion, but
was discharged by Davidson. The
cause of the cutting is supposed to be
in revenge for being discharged.
Huntington, W. Va, is considera-
bly, mystitied and alarmed over the
disappearance Of Mr.. Shuck, a horse
and cattle dealer Shuck was last
seen in company with one Webb, and
another man, whose name [ did not
learn. Their characters are well
known, and they do not bear the rep
utation Of the old Patriarchs by con
siderable. These two men claim that
they crossed the river to the Ohio side
with Shuck, in skiff, as Shuck want
ed to see VIM. Smith, clerk Of Union
township; that in returning to Hunt
ington Shuck was drowned in two
and half feet of water; that they
were not able to save him, and only
saved his hat, which the friends recog-
nized as Shuck's. On the other hand
Smith says that the men had not been
to see him. The men were inmedi-
ately arrested, and parties commenced
the search for the body Of the missing
man. Some are dragging the river;
others securing the woods in every di-
rection, as the main supposition is, he
was killed and buried in the woods.
Shuck, at the time Of his disappear
ance, had between three and four hun
dred dollars on his person; exact
not known. His friends Of
fered a reward Of two hundred and
fifty dollars for the recovery Of the
body. He had an insurance on his
life Of 81, 1000, what company I did not
learn. Yours etc.,

There is rumor that Gen. Noyes
will resign as Minister to France, and
that Murat Halstead will be appointed
IN his place. While Halstead would
no doubt make an excellent Foreign

cial office, during the great campaign
next year. Don't offer it to Halstead.

The Athens Messenger says that a
young man named Lon Tuttle, while
erazed with whisky, mounted a loco
motive at Parkersburg, and started
east on the Baltimore and Ohio road,
at fearful speed, until he came in
collision with a train. The damage
only amounted to thirty thousand
dollars. The saddest part of all was,
that the drunken fool was not killed.
It is generally thus.

Bayless, who was so badly beaten

Mr.. Pollard ceases to be Sheriff before
he offers to take the oath as Senator,
he will be eligible.

Corn-cobs have become an important article
of fuel in Washington. The Immense corn
crop of Fayette county is nearly all shelled
here before shipment, and the enormous piles
of cobs turned out at the elevators during the
busy shelling season are utilized profitaby for
fuel. The elevators run their engines entirely
on cobs, and then have a surplus sufficient to
supply all the cooking stoves in town the
greater part of the year. The coal dealers ham
die cobs as a regular article of trade delivering
them at 25c. q cartload, and most families in
town keep a supply of them for use in their
cooking stoves and for kindling, for Which pur-
poses there is nothing better. In case OF a coal
famine our cob-fuel would come handy to fall
back on as a substitute for coal. We could
weather through a few days right comfortably,
in case our coal supply should give out, on
cobs.
We find the above in the Fayette
County Herald. It would pay to save
carefully the ashes from the burnt
cobs. Corn cobs are rich in potash.
Put a good supply of cob ashas in po-
tato hills, if you want to have large,
clean potatoes. We have tried it.
We would further say, that two or
three dry cobs, after being soaked in
carbon oil, will kindle a coal fire in a
few minutes. They are handy, and
the cheapest kindling that can be had.

Democratic

The Columbus Democrat, New
York Herald, and some other papers
favorably inclined towards the rebels,
are urging leading Republicans to go
to Louisiana to make Republican
speeches, and the rebel papers in Lou
isiana are cordially inviting such men
as Sherman, Garfield, Foster, Evarts,
Blaine, etc., to come and make Repub-
ican speeches. The N. Y. Herald
and Columbus Democrat are taunting
the great Republican orators because
they do not go into this seething hell
of the reasonable Democracy. Moth
ing would please these rebel Demo-
Gratis better than to have several Of
the leading Republicans murdered by
their Southern masters.
These Northern rebels deny that
there would be any danger; but they
know they are lying. The poisoning
Of Presidents Harrison and Taylor,
and the assassination of President
Lincoln; the murder Of Judge CHS
holm, his son and daughter, and the
hundreds of other assassinations and
murders by Democrats give the lie
direct to these assurances Of safety.
There is no safety for Republicans,
white or black, when in the power Of
Democrats. Sherman, Blaine, etc.,
could go to Louisiana and make Re-
publican speeches in perfect safety, if
they could take a squad of United
States soldiers with them. That
