Hon. FRANK MCKINNEY of Piqua,
called upon the TRANscRIPT, on Tues
day. Mr.. Mckinney represented a
Republican district two terms in
Congress, and these political tri-
umphs we're mainly due to his skill
upon the stump and in organizing
the voters. He is, in fact, a most
CAPABLE political worker, and if John
G. Thompson should die, resign or
be left out in the cold, the Ohio De
mocracy could call Frank McKin-
ney to the front with every assur-
ance that their ranks would be clev-
erly marshaled for the contest at the
polls.-Sprinafeld Transcript.

We should think that eighteen

One of the Hayes Louisiana cleo
tors who was before the Potter Com
mittee at Washington, and was ex
amined in relation to the forged cleo
toral certificates, was only able to
say that he had no knowledge of
any forgery having been committed.
He also said that sit was a generally
conceded fact that the majority of
the ballots cast in Louisiana were
for Mr.. Tilden, and that he had no
knowledge whether the evidence be-
fore the Board justified the action by
which the vote was changed"

THE pr,AcuE.

The plague which is now raging
to such an alarming extent in Rus
sia, it is stated, was probably taken
there by a Cossack soldier who took
his lady love a shawl which was like
ly a part of his spoils from the war
in Turkey. The girl wore it two
days and sickened with all the symp-
toms of the plague and died. The
other members of her family sicken-
ed and died. Others took it; the
disease spread rapidly, and the peo-
pie fed from it and scattered the
germs in all directions. 1t assumed
an epidemic from about the 25th of
last November, and Notwithstanding
the authorities have exerted them
selves to the utmost to check it,
they have not been able to do so, and
the panic in Russia to day is almost
incredible. Every class and station
in life have petitioned for an entire
cessation Of all intercourse, even pos
tai communication, between the rest
of Russia and the Volgas. Letters
sent from Astrachan aud Zaritzian
are not received by the persons to
whom they + addressed. Some
people even refuse to take paper
money, fearing the germ of the in
lection might be communicated
through it.
The disease is claimed by some tc
be the same as the ''black DEATH Of
the 10th century, which killed 250,-
600 people in Europe and the British
Isles. Whatever the'disease may be
called it is said to be one which es.
pecially attacks the glands, which
swell to great size. Kaots appear
on the face, and on different parts o
the body. Internal fever RACES. The
patient may die suddenly or may
linger for weeks. Not more thar
ten per cent. of those attacked recov
err. One difficulty in preventing the
spread of the plague is the want o
physicians. About one-tllird of thu
Russian doctors died either during
the wal or from the typhoid feve.

forever-Spencer of Alabama, Pat

one scallawag of the foul crew to re-
call the infamous days of their pres

these men.

While people are airing their elo-
quence in the country in denuncia-
ton of high fees and salaries of
County Officers, the fact should not
be lost sight of that the Democratic
Legislature of 1S74-5 passed a bill
cutting down fees and salaries; that
at the election in 1875 the people
elected a Republican Legislature,
and that that Republican Legislature
did away with the Democratic law
on the subject of fees and salaries
and enacted the existing law.

- searching cdilldI-
tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and ever the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have bafied the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not iniamed.
They reach the vital fountains ofthe blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomal
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh.
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

INCREASE OF THE PUBLIC DEBT.

Perhaps Sherman & Co., can now
be induced to speak out and explain
again to their own satisfaction, if
this little sum in subtraction is not
correctly performed:
Total debt, bearing inte-
rest in coin January
1st 1878. $1.726, $50, $50
Total debt, bearing inte-
rest in coin January
1st 1879. 1,so9, Sl2,S5o
Increase in debt, bear
ing interest in coin S2,979,000
Let us anticipate the explanation
they will give. 1t is the same that
they gave before--that the increase
is only apparent; that the skies have
been called, and the money is in the
Treasury to pay for them. Indeed,
did not the Secretary himself for the
first time incorporate in the January
statement this explanation in order
to anticipate objection? But there
were called bonds due and unpaid
on the first of January, 1873, just as
there were on the 1st of January,
1879. Let US see how the statements
compare:
Debt on which interest
has ceased, January l,
1873. $21,512,24
Debt on which interest
has ceased, January /,
1879. 22,444,460
Increase 1884, 2O
Less than a million more of called
skies out on the 1st of January,
1879, than on January 1st 1878.
This explanation will hardly do. 1t
throws us back to the facts in the
case-that the funded debt of the
United States on Wednesday last
was 8 3,913,32O greater than it was
one year before. Fifty millions OF
this increase was confessedly to get
coin with which to resume, o (which
we paid a bonus to the Syndicate OF
about one million. But on what pre-
text has the remaining thirty three
million been issued?-Phila. Times,

THE RUBY CONsOLIDATED.
What IL Said AbOut 1t at the other
End Of the Line.


The Mining Journal, OF August 30th,
makes the following reference to the affairs
Of the Ruby Consolidated. "Tbe Chairman
OF the Company, Mr.. Malcolm, has recent
ly inspected the mines, and is expected in
England in about a fortnight. Mr. Long
maid has been appointed manager. In
calculation Of Capt. Richards report that
he considered the property of the Dunder-
burg Company in no way diminished in
value through the past extraction OF ore,
as the !mines are so extensive it is remarked
that 1.-THE great body of ore extracted from
the Dunderberg down to the 700 #. level
realized, it is said, ESQ 900, sterling, and
this ore is believed simply to have been taken
from the ~footwall Of the lode. Capt. Rick
ard recommends the driving of a cross cut
at the 400 It. level, so as to intersect' the
Home Ticket lode, which is supposed to be
the hanging wall of the great Dunderberg
lode, and the opinion of the experts who
know the district best is that the hanging
wall Of the lode is much more likely to pro-
duce richer deposits, and in larger guam
titles. The time required for driving out
this cross cut would be from two to three
months, and at this point the hanging wall
OF the lode would be intersected at the depth
Of about 900 it,, as the mountain rises rap

WHITE PINE.


Captain Joe Potts, OF the Albion mine,
returned from a visit to White Pine Tues
day evening. He went over to take a look
at the mining situation in that locality.
We gather from him some items of inter-
est regarding the Jennie A and other prop
critics. Captain Potts spent a couple of
days with Superintendent Kendall, and of
course made a thorough inspection of the
property under the latter's management.
The main workings of the Jennie A have
attained a depth Of $50 feet. At the bot
tom the ledge is found to be larger and
softer. The vein runs from two feet to
forty feet in width. The ore is yellow and
black carbonate, and will average about
$50 per on. They have in sight ready for
stopping not less than 10000 tons. The
experimental furnace will DO completed
and started up the present week. There is
a large amount of ore on the dump an2
$50 cords of wood at the furnace. Super
intendent Kendall has made many substan-
tial improvements in the way of comfort
able buildings, etc. The Company Rave
driven a tunnel at Emigrant Springs, and
- " III aDubbaAtC vi HdttI u lun a
large sized smelter at all seasons of the
year. On the whole Captain Potts was
favorably impressed with the Jennie A,
and thinks it one of the best mining prop
critics in Eastern Nevada.
The Badly Sour and Sweetwater on
Treasure Hill are still sinking the main
vertical shaft. The Keystone, located
south of the old Eberhardt mine, and
owned by the Badly Sour Company, is
yielding some very rich ore. The ore re-
sembles that taken from the Eberhardt in
the early days.
Work in the Henry and Eberhardt &
Aurora tunnels is progressing finely. The
former is in $50 feet and the latter between
4 900 and 5000 feet.
Mr.. Wren's mine is also looking well.
The best ore from this mine is being as
sorted for shipment to Eureka.
Captain Potts says a number Of parties
lately gone to work on old claims that
have beoD idle for years. Taken all in all
Captain Potts considers the outlook of
White Pine highly promising, a state Of
affairs which the SENTINEL is gratifed to

A couple Of m~illionaires have just turned
up in Eureka. One Of them is Doctor
Chamblin and the other is Luther Clark.
Last spring they "put in" with Judge
Adams end sent him to Trinity county,
California, to look for a gold quartz ledge.
the existence of which the Judge knew
SO ..ething about. Tuesdays mail brought
Doctor Chamblin q letter from Judge
Adams. The Judge writes that he has
found the ledge, and that it Is ~''lousy" with
gold-the precious metal being visible to
the naked eye in every piece Of rock ex-
tracted. He had penetrated the ledge 8
feet without reaching the back wall, and
thinks it may be 20 feet wide. This is GER
tainly a valuable find, and il it holds out
as well as the Judge seems 10 think it will,
