The InauRurntiOn.

There was great deal of truth and
good sense contained in the resolutions
introduced in the Ohio House of Rep
resentatives, few days since, by our
Democratic friend, the representative
from Defiance county, in reference to
the preparations that are being made to
celebrate the Inauguration of our new
President; and Mr.. Patten in daring to
express his views adversely to the
great pomp, show, parade and expense
and useless ceremony, INDUCED in at
our presidential inauguratiOns, took the
fearful risk of being called an old fogy.
The time has come when it requires
man of more than ordinary nerve to
rise up and advocate loyalty to the
simplicity of Republican form of
government, as 1t was understood and
practiced in the early days of the Re-
public. OF course none Of us at this adj
vanced age in literature, science and
civil rights, want to take any retro
gressive steps; but the motto of all true
citizens should be "onward"
In all things that tend to the advance
ment of the true principles of Repub-
lican form ofgOvernment, avoiding all
useless show and even the appearance
of aspiring after the grand displays at
the coronation of the supreme ruler of
a monarchy. Our inaugurations should
be plain and simple, and in the true
spirit Of Republican form of govern
nent, which we so highly prize and |
cherish SO dearly.

The bill that passed the General As
sembly to prevent the selling of pools,
meets withsa furious opposition from
sportsmen and all classes of gamblers
In Cincinnati, Cleveland and other cities
In the State. Stubbs' Sunday bill, which
passed the House, is very distasteful to
that class of persons who have no re-
gard for the Sabbath day nor for the
morals of the community in which they
live. It Is especially distasteful to the
worst elements, that are a disgrace to the
character of Cincinnati. A strong
pressure will be brought upon Senators
to defeat the passage Of the bill in that
house. It is to be hoped, for the credit
Of our State, that the effort will be a
failure.

COLUMBUS, Jan. 25, 1881


The House met pursuant, to adjourn
ment this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
Not more than half the members are in
their seats. The journal was read; pc
titions and resolutions presented. No
reports were made from any OF the
standing committees, but number of
new bills were offered. A motion was
made by Mr.. Covert, of CuyahOga cOun-
ty, to reconsider Stubbs' House bill,
No. 800; this is theSunday bill 80 called.
The vote on the reconsideration was
taken by ayes and nays. On this vote 1t
was discovered that Democratic mem
bers have been undergoing change Of
heart, for nearly all Of them voted
against the reconsideration Of the bill,
showing them to be in favor of fprOhib-
iting the sale of Intoxicating liquors,
and of Sunday theaters and Sunday
variety shows. hope the convention
will prove to be genuine, and that they
may be put down hereafter rs true
friends of temperance and moral reform.
The convention is somewhatsudden, and
there may be design in this apparent
reformation, that is not visible to an un-
suspectlng person, but let us hope. The
vote against recOnsidering the bill was
but there was not a quorum
voting. A number of bills were read
the first time and referred, after which
the House adjourned until tomorrow
The Senate met, but not half of the
members of this body of wisdom were
here to warm their seats, and but little
business could be transacted over there.
Tomorrow morning | suppose both
will be fully represented, and
business will be booming. W. M.

the possession ofthose physical attri-

A Few words About Canaries,

AA"I
All birds at this season require ex.
ira food. Canaries should have ali
through tho year German summer
rape, Sicily canary, and millet seeds
mixed ia equal parts, and care should
be taken to have the seeds fresh and
of the best quality. In addition to
the seeds, feed canaries daily one
fourth part of hard boiled egg, and
mix it with as much cracker dust as
can be taken up on a ten
cent piece. Fresh water both for
drinking and for bath and plenty of
coarse, washed gravel will usually
keep a bird in health. Twice a week
give a piece of sweet apple or lettuce.
If the bird has not yet finished moult-
ing, keep him in an even temperature
of about sixty-fve or seventy degrees
and let him hang where there is no
possibility Of a draught blowing in
upon him. If not yet in song, hang a
strip Of raw, fat, salt pork in his cage
and let him pick at it for a week or
TWO.
