Have you attended to the duties of the

two years ago?
Have you been consistent with the

Have you not used your official capac-

Have you not neglected your duties

Have you not pardOned criminals in

Are you not guilty of making prom
ises which you had neither the power
or inclination to fulfill? J
Has not your Office been made head
quarters for political bummers and

Has not your Officeseeking ambition
turned the State institutions into bed

Did you not issue a proclamation ad-
yising the people of Ohio to abstain

THE INFAMOUS CIRCULAR.

The Columbus Times says that "since
the emanating from the Republican
County Committee of the infamous cir
cular, wherein the Democratic party is
charged with instigating Guiteau to as
sassinate the President, and the party
is also charged with assignatiOn with
harlOts, there has been some effort made
to trace the authorship of the despica-
BILE screed. Certain facts have been dis
covered that point toward the governors
office. If it was not the composition of
an attachee of that Office, it is said that
thejprOOf was sent there for correction.
A copy of the circular with typOgraphi-
cal errors marked, and are corrected in
it as circulated, was found in the de-
pOsit for the emptyings from the waste
basket of the Governors Office.
If the Governors Office is to be used
for the cOncOcting and dissemination of
such scOundrelly falsehOOds as that at
tributed to the Democracy in this circu-
lar the sooner it is made to change ten
ants the better. 1t is fast growing to be
as bad as the CuyahOga county court
house, where corruption bOils and bub-
bles and O'erTuns the stew"

WE spoke last week of the parade and
pageantry that would probably attend
the Garfield ObseQuies. We were think
ing of the discOnsOlate widow and chill
dren; of the good old mother to whom
he wrote his last letter: and of his sis
ters and other friends; and thinking
how empty all pOmp and parade would be
to those so sOrely bereaved and afflicted.
We're we not right? They are unaccus-
toned to display and show; and GER
tainly can little enjoy it all on this, to
them, most sad occasion.
Forever and forever, all In that blessed home
And there to wait little while until the dear ones
come.
The souls within the light of God the body on earths
breast,
And the wicked cease from troubling and the weary
are at rest.

A Weasel Yarn.

The remarkable sagacity of the weas-
0l was well illustrated the other day by
an incident which actually occurred in
the suburbs of Santa Barbara. A gen.
tleman's barn was infested with rats,
and he was greatly annoyed by their
depredations. They had Deen gradu-
ally disappearing, however, during the
past few weeks. The gentleman finally
discovered the cause of their probable
disappearance in a very wide-awake
weasel, which was engaged at the time
in vigorous combat with an unusually
large sized rat. The latter proved too
much for his adversary, and finally
chased his weaselship out of the barn.
A few mornings later the gentleman
again found the same animals engaged
in a similar battle. The weasel at last
ran away as before, and the rat followed
in hot pursuit. This time, however, the
weasel ran into hole it had burrowed
through a pile of hardened compost.
The hole was quite large at the entrance
but the outlet was scarcely large enough
to admit the passage of the weasers
body. The weasel darted into the hole
with the rat at his heels. A moment
later the weasel emerged from the other
aide, ran quickly around the compost
pile and again entered the hole, this
time in the enemy's rear, The gentle
man, interested in the proceedings,
watched the place some time, and found
that only the weasel came out. Digging
into the compost, he found the rat quite
dead and partly eaten. The weasel had
arranged his trap so that the rat comd
enter, but becoming closely wedged in
the narrow portion of the hole, could
be attacked at a disadvantage and eav'
ny killed.-Santa Barbara (CaI.) Prem

BLACKSTONE, in his introduction "On
the study of the law, says: Gentlemen
who are ambitious of representing their
country in Parliament, would do well
to remember its nature and Importance.
They are not thus hOnOrably distin-
guished from the rest of their fellow
subjects merely that they may privilege
their persons, their estates, or their do
mestics; that they may list under party
banners; may grant or withhold sup
plies; may vote with or against pOpu-
lar or unpopular administration; but
upon considerations far more interest
ing and important. They are the guar
dians of the English constitution" l."
And in this country, members of Con-
gress should be the guardians of our
Constitution and be watchful of the
rights and liberties of the people.
The object of our Constitution, as stated
in the preamble, is to form more per-
feet union; establish justice; insure
domestic tranquility; provide for the
common defense; promote the general
welfare and secure the blessings of lib
erty."
All this equally applies to members
of eur State Legislature. Members of
COngr IS, and of Legislatures having
no power except what is conferred by
the instruments referred to. These
they each take an oath to support and
obey. These constitute our fundament-
al law,and should be carefully observed.

That fascinating historian, Prescott,
produced his books under difficulties,
for he suffered from early life from a
disorder in the nerves of the eye, which
rendered them practically useless; he
was unable to see whether his pen made
marks on the paper or not, and he could
not distinguish the lines Or edges of the
paper, yet with these disadvantages he
wrote his charming histories by means
of an agate stylus on carbOnated paper,
being guided as to the lines by brass
wires drawn through a wooden frame

FROM GLORY TO THE GRAVE.

"THE path of glory leads but to the
grave" says charming poem; and yes
day all that was mortal of James A. Gar
field was deposited in mother earth,
in the beautiful Lakeside cemetery, at
Cleveland. From all parts of the cOun-
try, including Canada, distinguished
persons are in attendance, and it will
be long, probably, before Cleveland
witnesses such another occasion.
JAMES A. GARFIELD was a man of
mark; and his rise to distinction and to
power was rapid. His untimely end
calls public attention to the man and
his career more distinctively than
would otherwise have been the case.
During his public life he pursued sue
cess as his tTuest friend, and applied to
confidence as his ablest counsellor. OF
course he owed much to opportunity
and to chanCe;was aided by the wisdom
of friends and the folly of enemies.
This very elevation, however, brought
attendant dangers. Truly, has one
more to dread from the secret envy of
adherents, than from the open hate of
adversaries. OF the truth of this the
end of Garfield affords notable and
melancholy example. Truly the inter
esting family group that occupied the
White House six months ago, retire
from it now, weighed down with a
heavy and terrible afflictiOn. All the
display at theburial yesterday is but poor
consolation for those wounded and lac
Grated hearts. Vain indeed and transi-
tory are such shows, for the suffering
wife and children. These afford them
no comfort; and allay not their grief

IT seems the new arrangement for
heating the Court House and Jail is to
have a building of good size erected
west of the Clerks office. The structure
we understand will be 90 by 28 feet and
forty feet high. One would suppose it
would seriously Obstruct the light in
that Office. We hope the Commissioners
have carefully considered the whole
matter for it would certainly be a pity
to spoil the Clerks Office in regard to

In Utica, New York, are twelve
wards and at the Republican primaries
held last week the COnkling men car
ried seven wards, the Half-Breeds four,
and one broke up in fight. 1t was a

it pretty certain that the ex-senator
will go down to New York as a dele

however, until this week.
