Tie Flux OF Nations.

AT the way at which immigrants are
pouring into the Atlantic ports, there will
be added to our foreign population this
year between 100000 and 100000 hu.
man beings. Never was the Immigrant
depot at New York so full. The German
are coming in greater numbers than We,
before, and lately Italy has been adding
to the tides OF humanity which are stream
ing across the Atlantic Ocean. Nearly all
the immigrants. who intend to pursne
farming as calling leave New York for
Chicago, at which point they are rein
forced by another stream which comes by
the ST. Lawrence, the lakes and the Grand
Trunk Railway. Such vast movements in
population have not been witnessed since
the incursions of the barbarians into Eu-
rope when the Roman Empire was in its
decline. Those migrations were necessari-
ly slow, az the armies had to conquer each
country they came to before the lands
could be settled. But the transplanting of
nearly one million cf people in one year
from Europe to America conld only be
accomplished in an age of steam and tele-
graphs. Theae invaders do not come with
the battle.ax and spear, they are armed
inalead with the implements of industry
and ire adding to our material wealth and
national greatness. Let them come. Ger
tain evils will develop themselves in con.
nection with this vast increase of our for
eign population, and it will be another
strain upon our republican institutions.
Many OF these immigrants are illiterate,
Ignorant, and certain proportion cpimi.
nal. But, after all, they belong to our
own race, and the great majority are hon.
est, hardworking people. Their coming
will add TO the value of our lands and
will increase the material wealth of the
coun,ry.-From Democrats Monthiyfor June.

The LAW and tho Mon.

The numerous recent hangings by mobs
has brought out a pretty thorough discus.
| sion of the manner in which criminal JUS
tice is administered at the present lime.
The following crisp paragraphs are from q
leading editorial in the Bucyrus Journal
the editor of which is himself lawyer:
Asdirect results of this modern criminal
| Justice, Stokes, n deliberate, cold-blooded
| william who murdered Fisk from jealousy
or lust, is to-dav at liberty, and the mis-
creant who murdered the President, de-
praved wretch, whose insensibility to every
moral principle makes him a national
leper, loathsome in his infamy, is allowed
| to live in comfort, to receive company, to
make more money than he ever before
made, and to positively thrive in body and
estate.
| Fensling hattering, fourishing and play
| ing the hero in his cell, his treatment has
been an outrage upon the public sense as
horrible and az monstrous az his crime, and
| it has been one of the stimulating causes
TO incite the people TO assemble under the
excitement of atrocious crime and admin
lister 50 mmary justice.
The Journal has frequently declared that
| the modern administration of criminal JUS
tice was itself crime against the people,
an a it is not surprising, however deplora,
BILE it may be, that the people, under exas-
peraiing circumstances, rise and 20 admin

offenders against The very laws they rise to
vindicnte.
Yet further, the Journal has often pro-
tested against the positively disgraceful
legislation regarding prosecuting attor-
neys. Az the laws now exist they are
taken from the lowest ranks at the bar,
and in important cases, they are found
wholly incapable OF the duty of protecting
the people, and an assistant is engaged at
a serious expense. Instead, the protection
of the people against criminals should be
next in importance to the administration
of justice, and the prosecutor here, as in
other nations, should be taken from among
the first lawyers at the bar instead OF
from the last, nnd in importance and sal

Shelby county Democrat: Heinrich, the
deposed crooked Treasurer of Auglaize
county, il shown TO be more out Of shape
shan at first believed. When he stepped
down and out OF Office he turned over q.
e52 tax receipts to the new Treasurer. All
che receipts were prepared in advance for
che June collection. An examination OF
them shows that Heinrich filled them out
IN way that would help gil his pockets.
In some cases the certificates are only Eve
cents In excess Of the proper amount in
others three dollars. Had he not been
forced 10 resign before the let OF June, the
fraud would have been consumm ated. No
criminal proceedings have yet been brought
sgainst him.

no county in Ohio has n more generous
people, nctuated by industry aud persever.
nnce, than Noble county. 1t was organic.
ed in 1851 with county seat at Sarahsvllle,
and removed to Caldwell in 1858. The
town was named after Col. Caldwell, born
in Washington county on Duck Creek
nearly in proximity oftbat historic island
Blanrhasert, and the county was named
after Capt. Noble, Of Cuyahoga county
formerly member OF the Legislature,
The town is on high elevation and full
of business; fine public buildings, and
lovely and beautiful dwellings.
The campaign for the Congressional fight
for nomination, has opened fercely, and
among that number is private james Dali
zell, well worthy, and who hns laced the
hungry jaws of battle in defense of that
flag whose beautiful stripes and stars float
on and on In glory.
The main journal of thetown, the Noble
County Republican, is published by w, IL.
Cooley, who has n fine Office, large
subscription, and being one OF those true,
tried, brave old soldiers, has generous,
noble heart, together with being practi.
cal printer, and knows how TO edit and run
paper.
Among the more prominent attorneys
in the town are Belsford & Oakley, Dalzell
& Mctiinnis, ct al. Mr.. VIM. Oakley is
considered to be the most learned and nc.
complished lawyer in the district, and be
ing affable, generous, kind, obliging and
courteous, together with all the accom-.
plishmen,s of the gentleman, has large
and lucrative practice.
The crops never looked better and the

Jumbo, the great elephant, so long the
delight OF the little people in the Zoologi-
cal Garden in London, is now in this
country. They made fuss about his
leaving England, but good deal that was
done was no doubt due to the ingenious
advertising OF Barnum, the Snowman. The
newspapers have told the story of the voy-
age Of this huge beast and Of his arrival
in New YORK. He is only twenty-one
years OF age, and may live TO be $50 years
old. He loves candy and sweetmeats, and
would drink whisky by the bucketfnl ii
given to him. Barnum swore at tbe Gus
tom House that he brought him over for
breeding purposes, thus saving $4,000 duty.
OF course Jumbo was not purchased for
any such purpose, but to be exhibited for
money. 1t is very rare for yonng ele'
phants to be born in captivity. Jumbo is
the largest elephant exhibited, but he is
said to be an exceptionally dangerous beast,
whom the managers OF the London Zoo.

footed, walking along on tho pavement
between Eighth and Ninth streets. He
summoned Sergeant Rttwegcr, who ran
out and caught the lady by the arm,
when she cried out: :'Oh! where am /?
who are you?" She had been asleep, and
the approach of the officer awakened her
Sergeant Rittweger led the lady, who vas
in bewildered condition, to the station
house. He saw that she was eomnam-
bulist, and though: the best thing to do
was to take her in the cell room and
then inform her folks. This was done,
and the lady with whom the sOmnam-
bulist boards, on West Seventh street,
was sent for, and came with her clothes
and took her home. It 10 singular fact
that the lady got up in her sleep, un-
locked the door of her room, walked
down two flights Of stairs. then unlocked
the front door and went out on the street
and walked At least half 4 mile before

were covered with mud. She had been
i'll for few days past, and last night her
physician gave her some quinine, and she
retired at 10 o'clock, and Was not heard
from again by the folks in the house un-
til they were aroused by the officer this
morning. She is married lady, and at
present her husband is out of the city Oh
