4 There r sonnet Republicans
around here, who act after an rejection
as if it was an uncommon thing for
Preble county to go against the Dem
ocrats. They ought to study the
official vote since the county was
organized up to the present time,
and if theirs skulls,are not too thick
for information, they will learn that
their hilarity over the result of the
last election was very ridiculous.

Public School Discipline.
From the New York Tribune.

There is in the public schools too
much of this military drilling which
forbids a tired and restless child to
change its position and rest from a
cruel constraint. 1t is sometimes
absolute torture to a delicate child
to maintain the stiffness and stiffness
enjoined by a foolish teacher. A
moderate amount of freedom of
movement can not be productive of
disturbance to a we'll managed school.
The teacher who thoroughly knows
his business and.is born, TO his work
is never an u~nreasoning martinez.

For the seventh or eight time the
old dotard of the Eaton Register
bids us an "adoor!' After a cam
paign on his part of unexampled ma
lignancy, scurr;lity, defamation of
private character and brazen faced
lying, the old ghoul undertakes to
assume q virtue and pretends that
he was led into his dirty and dis
graceful course by soft repeated per-
suaision of friendsr' Shame on this
craven and cowardly effort to shift
the responsibility of libelliDg and
defaming his neighbors onto the
shoulders of others. Everybody
acquainted with Mr.. Charles, knows
that it is a moral impossibility for
him to keep his pen out of Islander
and defamation. It is his nature.
1t was born in him. God Almighty
indellibly stamped it in every de-
lineation of his features. We pity
him. We beseech the prayers OF
every good nan in Eaton in behalf
of the pretended effort of this old
malignant traducer to be decent
We beg of soft repeated friends" not
to seduce the old man any more.

The temperance people have wait
ed upon President Arthur and have
petitioned him in the name OF Chris
tianity, to avoid Intoxicating liquors
when dispensing hospitality in the
White House. Heretofore the hos
pitality of Mr.. Arthur has been main
ly based on beverages that inebriate.
He may have reformed to some ex
tent, but people who + acquainted
with him are of the opinion that the
White House will not be run as a
Sanitarium for the next three years.
1t is semi officially announced at
Washington, in the Stalwart organ,
that Boss Shepherd is to visit the
capital, and to shed the light of his
c~ountenance on Congress in Deem
Der. The Boss has been mining for
some time past in Mexico in the
interest Of a company which claims
to hold valuable pose essions, but
with what measure of success is only
known from his reports, which are
characteristic of the man. A Stall
wart and a vehement third. termer,
the Boss doubtless sees, Oh thinks he
sees, his opportunity in the changed
situation at Washington. He re-
turns with renewed patriotism, and
with his old deyotion to the flag and
an appropriation. Gen. Arthur must
soon show his hand in regard to the
followers of Grant, and he will do well
to remember the lesson taught by
recent political manifestations.
