CogpEpfEs that the Democratic VIC
tory in Ohio abolished Sunday, it will
not now be necessary for any old hyp-
ocrite and sham temperance advocate
to perch himself in an elevated posi-
tion on the Sabbath, for the purpose
of watching his neighbors Herald.
That is so. The old hypoerite can
now go to church, put on white pants,
to make him look like an angel, kneel
on his Brussels carpet, elevate his
Ebenezer and howl, and while he
keeps one eye cooked upon the Throne
of Grace, with the other he can count
the number of stripes on the stock
ings of the Sunday School girls.

The verdict Of the people through

ity and temperance! ALI the legisla-
tion on the statute books now in

put there blythe Democracy. Will
silly preachers and hypocritical Re
publican sham reformers please bear
this in mind?-Herald.
"Silly preachers" have no further use

That is it. Give it to the Chering-
ton Family. You have slaughtered

he will have sense and decency enough
never again to ask you to mock God

printed to show the terrible wicked
ness and oppression practiced upon
the poor Government clerk and clerk
ess. Now let us look at this para
graph in all its terrors. 1t is admit
ted that our young lady friend receives
5000 per year. When it is recollected
that but very few men outside of
Washington, and many of them occu-
pying positions in the learned pro-
fessions, receive sum equal to this
for their yearly labors, the salary Of
5000 will not be regarded in the light
of hardship. Doubtless she values
her position when she notes that thou
sands Of her sisters go very rapidly to
the devil because they cannot obtain
employment at any price, save from
the party alluded to, who always fur
nishes something or another for idle
hands to do. But let that pass. To
be insured in the tenure Of her office
she is asked to pay a per cent. of her
salary, and thirty-six dollars is the sum
total. This leaves her 1864 on which

tain. the commissary, and then we
allow her, if you please, $3.50 for
clothing, transportation, and all the
nick-nacks included under the head Of
camp and garrison equipage. De-
Quoting these she has left from her
salary of 5000 the pretty little amount
Of $474 with WI .ch to buy bonds and
real estate. There are not many wom-
en- in Ohio who receive altogether as
much as the latter sum, from which to
meet all known expenses, and the best
mechanics in the State cannot lay that
amount aside. The cry Of oppression
is wholly Democratic, though that
party practiced it for years, and by
these methods were enabled to hold
the power which they abused, and
which in due course was taken from
them. There is positively no hard
ship in the assess nents, and those who
do not wish to pay them can resign.
But we have Lot read of any resigna-
tions-Cleanoa,t Courier.

OCTOBER.

ALI day the south wind nestled in the trees
With half complaing tone;
The leaves dropped idly, futtering in the breeze,
And fell on moss and stone.
The golden rod has lost its crown of fame,
The aster met its doom,
Ere yet adown the hills the frost king came
To blast their wildwood bloom.
The meadows still their robes of freshest green
Wore in these autumn days.
And through their brightness with its gayest sheen
The sparkling river plays.
The birds that winter in our stormy cline
Give their few notes of cheer,
Some glad remembrance of the genial time
Gone with the passing year.
They have no fear and He who rules the storm
And guides their wandering wings
Embraces in His love each tiny form,
And sure protection brings.
o days whose gorgeous beauty hath peer
.t Through all times changing round,
Stay your swift flight and linger with us here,
By all your glory crowned!

A Back-Handed Spe1ler.

Santa F6 has a young man with mind
which has faculty which is rarely to be
/ found, if. indeed. it can ever be discovered
elsewhere The gentleman in question is
Hugh McKevitt, printer, working over at
Military Headquarters. He is rapid
type-setter and thoroughly good workman,
SO that he is not dependent on any side
business for a good living and as a conse-
ouence has never said anything about his
spelling capacity, which is the subject of
this item. McKevitt is left-handed spell
er, and defes any one to put at him a
word which he cannot spell backward as
rapidly as the best and quickest speller
could give it in the usual way.
The other day the reporter fell in with
him when he was in mood more commun-
icative than usual, and had occasion to try
him. Incomprehensibility was not mark
er for him. As soon as the word was pro-
nounced Mae said Fifteen letters" and
went at it backwards so fast that his hearers
were unable to tell whether he was right or
wrong. You see said fellow printer,
he can tell the number of letter. in any
word without moments hesitation, as well
as he can spell it backward, and not only
that. but you can give him a whole sentence,
and he will tell you at once how many let
ters there are in it, and go right On and
spell through the whole thing backward
faster than most people could spell it the
other way
This thing was tried time and time again,
and no word or series of words could be hit
upon which were not rendered as indicated
above. OF course. there are words in the
English language which Mckeyitt has new
er heard of, just as Is the case with almost
every other man, but he Is what would be
called a fine speller, fright t-handed, as he
savs. and is familiar with the language. and
any word which he has heard and eau spell
at all he can spell backward with astonish-
ing rapidity. The strangest part about the
whole thing is that Mckevitt has never
praeticad OF studied spelling backward a
day in his life. He says he does not know
how he ever acquired the ability to do it,
bat that a. soon as he hears or sees word,
even if he has never thought Of it before,
which. Of course, i the case with large
majority of words. he knows Immediately
how many letters there are in il and how to
spell il backward or in the regular way. 1t
i 81. too, with sentences. He knows at
once how many words and letters are in any
sentence tha, may be suggested, and states
the numbers promptly as soon as the words
are uttered. Mekeyitt can also distribute
type backward a fast a. forward In the
e,t-hsnded spelling there Is no theory Of
s.,und to aid him a in very many instances
the letters spell nothing at all and eannet
h. pronounced 50 that there IS no account

ecpt To conclude. that it j. the result Of a

quick mind
