Hon. Chas. seymouran Hrs.speach.

In file of the Grant County
HERALD we find that Mr.. Joseph c,
Cover, in writing upthe proceedings
of one Of the editorial conventions
Of the Wisconsin Press Association.
Of which Mr., Charles Seymour was
President for several years, said
this "And here wo note that Pres.
iient Seymour has no rival as a
ready and agreeable speaker on Just
such occasions whore all feel q pride
in being I'D By enc possessing the
right spoutaneousness, and due
breyi.y." Although the occasion
was rot such as is referred to in
this quotation, those who attended
the largo. moeting ut the courthouse
last evening bad . splendid oppor.
tuuity to witness Its truth. Mr..
Seymour gave Republicans the most
entertaining speech they have bad
in Lancaster for years. he began
with references, complimentary and
amusing, to a few persons of Grant
county of whom he had personal &C.
quaintsnce, among whom were
Joseph C. Cover, j. Allen Barber.
Judge Mills and George Francis, and
then ran off into an amusing but
not complimentary arrangement of
che Democratic party. We doubt
whether any person in the enjoy
meut of health, who sat there
throughout the three full hours of
the delivery OF that speech, realized
they we're that length of time. We
cannot attempt this week to give
even en- outline of it, but Mr.. Sey.
mour is going TO speak at Bloom
ington this evening, at Patch Grove
tomorrow evening and at Platte.
vile Saturday evening and the peo-
pie should hear him. Republicans
will have much to encourage the
faith that is in them, wAvering men
will find something 10 quiet and
steady them, Democrats will have
something TO amaze them and oil
will have q goods chance to laugh
and grow fat.

A NAN may as we'll expect to grow
strong by always eating as wiser by
always reading. Too much over
charges nature, and turns more into
disease than nourishment. 1t is
thought which makes books service
able aud digestion which gives health
and vigor to the mind. Books well
chosen neither dull the appetite nor
strain the memory, but refresh the
inclinations, strengthen the powers,
and improve under experiments. By
reading, a man az it we're, antedates
his life, and makes himself eontem-
porary with past ages.

THE ALLEGED POISONING CASE.
verdict that Maria Anderson Dieo
of Heart Disease, and NOV Poison.

vcrdics that Maria Anderson DIED
of Heart Disease, and Nov Poison.
It will be remembered, as has been
published from time to time, that
Maria Anderson, wife of Allen Ander-
son, a well known colored barber of
this city, died on Thursday, Feb. gath.
Also that 1t was claimed that her
death could not have been from natu-
raj causes, and an inquest and
post norton examination OF the
body was demanded, and &C.
cordingly held. The jury was
empanneled by Coroner A. q. Hudi-
burg In compliance with the demand
and the instructions Of the law, and
such evidence as could then be OBJ
tanned was taken. ............s
Drs. A. Il. Tadlock and J. P. Park
were designated to make the post
mortena examination, which was per-
formed, and the body was buried Sat
urday following. The analysis of the
contents OF the stomach to ascertain If
there was any poison there, neces-
sarily required considerable time, and
the inquest was adjourned over.
Last night the adjourned and final
meeting of the jury of inquest was
held at the office of DR.. Dadlock, on
the summons of coroner Hudiburg.
The following jurors were present:
Rebt. Osborne, JAS. II. McMillau,
George Watkins, John Watkins, w.
c. Fraser and Jacob Miller. Drs.
Park and Tadlock were both ex-
amined as witnesses. Their testi-
mony was corroborative TO the
effect that after very thor
ough and searching analysis, by
the use of the apparatus in the Uni
versity laboratory, etc. they had satis-
fed themselves beyond any possible
doubt, that there was no strychnine,
or any other poisonous substance
there; and further, that Maria Ander-
son came to her death from disease Of
the heart. The jury accordingly
agreed upon verdict in accordance
with these facts, and were discharged
Thus, Allen Is entirely exon GRATED

How Books and Stationary Can De

Thread Glue or Paste.

HOW B0Oks and Stationary Gan %
bound In an Instant without Nv
Thread. Glue or Paste.
Every one has often heard the asser.
ton that to patent something that Is
useful, simple and cheap is the sure
way to fortune, II this be true, d.
R, REYNOLDS, of Bellefontaine, Ohio,
need to make no further effort to win
riches, for he has patent which for
usefulness, simplicity and cheapness
can not be surpassed. 1t Is station
airy and book binder, which, when
seen and examined, the question is at
once suggested, why was this not
thought of before By this pat
emit, binding Is so simple that any
one can bind book who has
enough strength to lift q ten pound
weight, and bind 1t In o manner far
superior to the stabbing and stitching
process. The process is to first bring
to straight edge the material to be
bound, place 1t In receptacle in the
back of the cover (called the bone Of
the book, by binders). which is made
of thin but strong metal square,
channeled sheet steeD. The next ope-
ration is to put the cover and material
in a kind of clamp press livery cheap,
and, with strong leverage power, the
metal is stabbed and pinched. and the
book is bound. So firm is this bind
ing that sheets in the book can be torn
out without loosening the remaining
ones. For the binding of pamphlets,
receipts, notes, orders. freight receipts,
loose papers about the office, in fact,
almost everything, it is just the thi ng.
