THE affectionate enthusiasm with
which the Maine Republicans greeted
Senator Blaine on Saturday, when he
made his first public appearance in a
considerable time, was type of the
admiration with which his recent
course must be regarded by the whole
country. 1t is fact worthy of public
attention that in this whole Maine
business Mr.. Blaine has exhibited the
very qualities which his enemies have
always declared he did not possess.
The country has been repeatedly as
sured that he was brilliant debater,
but a poor counsellor; that he was
good man to stir up the masses on the
stump, but lacked the moderation
land dullness) necessary to a states
man; that he was too radical, that he
lacked conservatism and caution. It
will do no harm to direct attention to
the fact that moderation, caution, con-
servatism, have been the most conspic-
uous features of the whole Republican
campaign in Maine, as carried through
under Mr.. Blaine's leadership. He has
kept cool in a place where almost any
other man would have lost his wits.
He has not taken one false step, and
his campaign for popular rights has
moved steadily forward with the pre-
cision of machinery, impressing the
country at every advance with the JUS
tice of the Republican cause, and f )rc-
ing his opponents steadily backward.
1t is not an exaggeration to say that
his leadership has combined the high
est political skill with the soundest
judgment in craftsmanship. This has
been done too when public feeling
was at white heat. A very little
spark would have kindled war in
Maine, and the fact that there has not
been war is probably due more to Mr..
Blaine than to any other man.

Reform Ia Necessary,

1t would be well if the teachers in the
Public Schools of Jackson would occa-
sionally remind their students that it is
not necessary for them to attempt to run
over and knock down any person who
may be passing at the time they are dis
charged from school at noon or in the
evening. Boys and girls will join hands,
making string entirely across the pave
ment, pull their hats and bonnets 'over
their eyes," and rush, pell-mell along the
street, making it unsafe for any one but
a stout man to pass along Broadway
street at such times.
We noticed boy near the School House
gate, on Friday evening, who was the vic
tim of collision. Blood was pouring
from his nose, and falling to the pavement,
as he hurried along
There are generally from one to a
dozen fights going on, among the small
boys, between the School House and
Pearl street, after school is out.
Boys, behave yourselvesl We have
heard it said that the Jackson Schools
were "models," within the building. On
the outside of it, they suggest the idea of
crowd of madmen, out on big "jam-
boree"

..Chapmaa of Meegs" as Reform

Our esteemed friend Chapman, of the
Meigs County Telegraph, is greatly eXer-
cised for fear newspaper men will be al
lowed more for publishing the Constitu-
tional Amendments, last summer, than
they could justly or equitably claim. The
conscientious scruples of our neighbor in
this matter hardly consist with that mile
age grab of his, though we are glad to
note symptoms of even eleventh-hour re
pentance of that unrighteous and shock
ing affair. 1t is another cheering verifica-
tion of the fact that "while the lamp
holds out to burn the vilest sinner may
return Now, to quiet Bro. Chapman's
fears in this matter of over allowance for
printing the Amendments, and allay his
concern for the dear people" he is no
longer willing to rob or see robbed, we
have this proposition to make him: That
if he will "coVer" into the Treasury the
amount of his MILEAGE GRAB, with in
terest. we will, on receipt of any overpay
for advertising the Amendments, forth
with return it to the Treasurer of State.
Now, let the great moral reformer of the
Telegraph either close in with our offer
or forever after hold his peace.
We conclude by remarking that the al
lowance proposed to be made by the SUI
pervisor of Public Printing for the publ
cation of the Constitutional Amendments
is excessive, but no man of sense in the
newspaper craft of the State has expected
to receive it, or been in any danger OF
| having it thrust on him, as Chapman very
well knew, if he knows anything; and

Senator Garfield,

The election Of General Garfield as
Senator from Ohio has been greeted
with universal satisfaction by the Re
publican press. The new Senator is a
man no only of ability, but of trained
ability, student of history and poll
tics, legislator of large experience,
and a man of the highest character.
In the important debates during his
service in Congress he has always
taken an important part, and his lead
ership in the House has been uncon-
tested. He is man Of strong Repub-
hcan convictions, but he is very much
more than mere partisan, and the
Republican force in the Senate will
be greatly strengthened by his ap-
pearance. Most of the Republican
Senatorial leaders are acceptable to
some shade, or element, or wing" !"
in the party. But General Garfield
will attract all kinds, and repel none.
The Republicans of Ohio have done
wisely in promoting him, and so Sc
curing a Senator who is thoroughly
conversant with public life, and with
duties which can be most efficiently
discharged by combination of expe-
rience with special capacity. This
was a secret always known to the
Southern States, and which secured
them great advantages. General Gar
field will make his own place in the
Senate, but it will not be easy to fill
the place that he vacates in the
House, Harper's Weekly.

The Last Stra


There are few human hearts so harden
ed as to have no sympathetic feeling foI
'the miseries of man" We see a fellow
creature suffering, and our heart and
our sympathies Immediately go out
to him, we seek, by kindly expressions
and acts of coincidence, to deaden the
pangs of grief or allay the rackings of
acute misery-but not always.
For instance, we see our old friend, j.
Calhoun Snifkins, passing along the street,
with a thoughtful expression upon his
face, sort of weary, resigned look-as of
man who has mortal dread of looking
into the future, but who looks with weary
longing at the distant past.
Here is an old friend-he feels bad /;
something troubles him; perhaps we can
assist him; perhaps he is puzzled over
some knotty problem which we can un-
ravel, or perhaps he seeks advice in a
horse trade; at any rate, let's see what
we can do for the old man. "Mr. Sniff
kins," say we, drawing respectfully near
the gentleman aforesaid, "you seem to be
in brown study this"
"Brown devils an fury, manW says he
bringing his cane down with a whack, in
dangerous proximity to our corns, sits no
brown study-its black, a cussed black
study thet ails me. 1 tell ye," says he
some sympathy at our hands, "Im DIM
ocrat; 1 allus wuz Dimocrat; l voted
for Ginral Jackson; never in my life
scratched Dimocratic ticket; I've prov
ed my Dimocratic faith by my works; I've
bounced more brickbats off of niggers'
heads than would build a fence around
the public squar; an to think that /, an
old Jacksonian Dimocrat, should ever be
permitted to live to see a niger elected
to the Legislator of the State os Ohio-a
Legislator holdin' its sessions in halls
which has been honored by the presence
of sich men as Patton, an Estill, an John
O'Connor, an other il1ustrious statesmenp'
'Yes,' we observe, "Mr. Williams made
a gallant fightin his own county, overcom-
ing the votes of the Democracy, and the
prejudices of his own party"
But" says the old man, "no sooner
does this nigger git. thar than he begins
to thrust hisself forward. Why, jist to
think that he would have the imperdence
to attempt to have the law repealed which
forbids nigger from marryin' a white
personl Yes, sir, he tried to have it RE-
and ther wasn't a Dimocrat
ther' as he'd grit enough to knock the
cussed nigger down, fur his imperdence!
Where is the safety for white people, if
niggers is to make our laws?"
And we leave the old man as he stands
and gazes away off, as though, in the dis
tance, he can discover buxom wench,
who exultingly swings aloft a marriage
license, while she marches on toward this
helpless Democrat like cruel fate. For
he feels his inability to resist her. But
in our hardness Of heart, we turn away,
and leave Snifkins to his doom.

Reception.

Last Saturday evening, 24th inst, a
large number of ladies and gentlemen
representing all the leading colored
families in the immediate vicinity Of
Berlin, paid their respects to Mr.. ].
w. Jackson who was elected Assistant
Clerk of the House of Representatives
for the present session.
Mr. jackson had just returned home
on a short 4eave of absence; and after
the family greetings were over, he
proceeded to make hurried inspec-
tion of the stock, and the farm. Being
well satisfied with the general appear
ance of things, he entered the house
and settled down before cheerful fire
with the intention of spending quiet
evening with his family. But as is
frequently the case Mr.. J. was doomed
to disappointment About 7 o'clock
P. NJ. Mr.. Jackson's story of life at
the Capitol was checked by a smart
rap on the door,
Imagine his astonishment when on
opening the door he beheld not only
the person asking admittance, but the
porch was full, the yard was full, and
more were coming in. He could not
at first decide whether the force was
hostile or otherwise; but when he per-
ceived the array of baskets and bundles
with which they were arrayed he took
in the situation and invited them in.
All the rooms were soon filled and
general congratulations offered
Mr. and Mrs. Jackson proceeded to
make their guests comfortable, and all
settled down to a general conversa-
tion. This was enjoyed for a short
time, then the ladies excusing them
selves retired to another room and
began arranging the tables for
the banquet. When this was
completed the gentlemen were
escorted out, (the ladies using leap
year privileges), and seated at the fes-
tai board where they did ample justice
to the occasion. After all had re-
freshed themselves to their hearts
content, the tables were cleared, and
the time employed in conversing and
singing until late hour, when the
signal was given to adjourn. MIR. John
Leach made few congratulatory re-
marks relative to Mr.. Jackson's sue
cess in procuring his position, and also
referred to the confidence that his
friends had in his ability to perform
the duties of his Office.
Mr.. Jackson responded briefly as
follows:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN-It is
useless for one to attempt an express
ion of my feelings on this occasion;
but of one thing be assured, l do not
esteem too lightly the distinguished
reception [ have received this evening;
and it shall ever serve to guide me to
higher and nobler purposes.
1T shall be my sole endeavor to so
discharge the duties Of my office, that
shall deserve the plaudits of my su-
periors, and reflect credit on myself
and race, so that you may be as proud
Of the record [ bring home, as you
now are of my appointment. Again
| thank you all for this evidence of
your regard.

What is an Educafi0n.

An education is a chest of tools
Each one of us journeyman carpen-
ter. The chest, the head; the tools
ideas. Rubbing will keep both bright
The possession of either IS a receipt
but not often in full-for strength,
time and money expended. Tools dc
not make the carpenter, nor ideas the
man. Not what he has but what he
can and will do. What tools must
have? Such as are simple, portable,
having edge and point, and susceptible
of many uses. In simplicity lies the
token and the pledge of power.
AN Echo
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1880-01-29

ON Monday evening we were startled
by the sounds of violins at our front door.
We were at first at loss to know what to
make of it. Why should mortal choose
the quiet neighborhood of our door in
which to play upon his violin? We were
at first alarmed, lest our "time had come, %
for Robert Burns said:
1.-The dell came fddlin' through the town.
At last we mustered up sufficient courage
to open the door. The first thing we saw
was Eddie Lowenstein, playing upon a
violin almost as large as himself. Near
him was pleasant-faced lad whom we
understood was Chris Pryor. Then there
was an immense fiddle about five feet
high. Some one was behind it, reaching
around it with both arms, and lingering
and saving as though he was paid by the
job. On climbing up and looking over,
we discovered this to be Tom Powers.
The boys played well. Success to you,
gentlemenl MAY you live long and
prosper"

Pig Iron Advancing.

Prices of pig iron are bounding upward
again, and, according to the Hardware
iron-makers are feeling uneasy. They
fear that values will reach point from
which they will drop with thud one of
these days. 1t was thought some time
ago that the English market would regu-
late ours, but this is proving delusion,
as prices there are bounding upward to
as giddy height as they are here In
ket controlling ours, the reverse is the
case. The cause of the whole trouble is
a scarcity of ore. If all the American
furnaces were in blast they could meet
the enormous demand; but many of them
can not blow in for want of ore-and we
notice by our late English exchanges that
the same is true with many furnaces in
Wales.-[Scientifc American.

WE saw Milton Brown and wife in
town on Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Brown
is daughter of the late j. H. Stephenson.
Mr.. Brown informed us that he had
lately seen Samuel Saylor, who so many
years was citizen of Jackson, and car
ried on the jeweler trade here. Mr. Brown
says Saylor is now a resident of Newton,
Kansas, and is doing well, and is very
popular with the citizens of that place.
We are glad to hear this, as we always
liked Saylor, and he had good family.
