The Ball.

Deutscher Verein Hall was crowded
last night with handsome young ladies
elegantly attired in calico, and gallant
gentlemen with domestic tiesn on.
The ball was in honor of Washing
toms birthday, so the hall was deco
rated with the American flag inter-
twined with that of the German en-
pire.' The floor and reception commit
tees did their full duty, seeing that all
present had good time. The music
was excellent, so the dancers kept up
their amusement until n late hour.
The affair was complete success.

officers. The second story contains the
same number of apartments, and the
third story is ar anged for chambers,
water tank and heating apparatus. sc.
In the rear part of the main building,
on the first floor, is the capaciOus din
ing room for the children and employees,
store room, pantries, &C., the cooking
aud washing departments are in the
basement; on second floor is the chapel
and school rooms. In rear of the main
building is the ehildren's cottage, farm
house, engine house, sewing room, hos
pital, &c, all very conveniently arrang-
ed, as To use, Sc. Each house has over
il a matTOn or gOvernesS or nurse, and
such discipline, order, harmony and
good viii seems to prevail in each de-
paTtment, that indicates in the aggre-
gate very good management. The en-
tire farm, home, and all is under the
management of the superintendency of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. X. NeisZ. The entire
home is model of cleanliness, order
and discipline, and managed on as eco,
nOmical basis as could be possibly pTac-
ticed, aud provide for the expenses and
improvements necessary to support IL.
The children in their cottages, home,
school, chapel, play ground and dining
room appear happy, cOntented and thri-
wing and healthy as they can be. No
disease prevails, except such as some
few of them have been tainted with by
constitutional innOculatiOn. They are
receiving such culture and discipline,
secular and moral, that will inculcate
principles upon which a structure of
manhood can be erected, that will prove
TO be an honor to humanity and an IND
mortal credit to the philanthropy of
Stark county. Some of these children
are bright and intelligent. and are mas
tering their lessons with remarkable
precision, and are very apt in recitation.
The writer had the privilege OF hearing
many of them recite all of last Sabbath's
lesson from memory, and repeat the top
les, golden texts for the month past.
One youth can recall all the golden
texts for year and another preach a
sermon. He has wonderful power of
elOcutiOn, thus this culture extends
through all schools and departments.
We cannot detail any further. Butlsum-
marise that the objects in erecting and
sustaining this home are being substan-
TALLY accomplished. Many children
have been provided with permanent
homes with good people, where they
will become the heirs of foster parents
Oh, could all the many thousands of un-
fortunate children that are huddled to-
gether, like so many swine, in dens of
sin, filth and Wretchedness in our dense
ly populated cities where the light of the
gospel never penetrates, nor the lessons
of real manhood are ever heard, be
snatched from vice and moral death,
and be placed in such institutions under
such wholesome instruction and dis
cipline. In a few generations there
would be very much less necessity for
the perpetuity of such homes, and Stark
and COlumbiana cOunty's experiment
is worth more than all the thousands of
dollars expended in its establishment
and the current expenses of time ia
ported, and might be proftably emu
lated by all the counties in the State.

CAN the memory of man run back to
the time when the 18th District was not
represented by a lawyer in Congress?
How would it be if the people would
change off in 1884? Was Congress made
for lawyers, or lawyers for COngTess?-
Salem Republican.
Most true "milord"; but it was never
represented by Democrat. When Wal
lace gets his seat he will be the first
Democrat. In 1888 Matthias Sheplar, a
farmer of Bethlehem township, this
county, was elected to Congress by the
Democrats. He refused a denomination
and was succeeded by a lawyer.

THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CON
NENTION

Will meet in Chicago in less than
six months. 1t will consist of S28 dele
gates. The number Of votes required to
nominate the candidate for President is
415. More tnan one.thiTd of the Con-
ventiOn will consist of delegates from
States and Territories which can CON
tribute no votes toward the election of
the Republican candidate. The South
ern States, probably Democratic with
the possible exception of Virginia, will
send 3l6 delegates to Chicago; and the
Territories and Districts of Columbia,
will send sixteen delegates. If Arthur
can fix these and get the delegates from
New York, Colorado and Nebraska, he
will have APO votes aud 415 are neces-
sary to choice. Mr.. Blaine had better
''lOok leedle Oud"; and so had the am
bilious Logan. President Arthur is
very likely to control the shadOwy dele
cations from the South, and hence is
likely to be nominated,

In Charleston, w. Va, brick street
paVements are a success. They find a
good foundation, and spread on it three
inches of sharp sand; then layer of
boards saturated with tar; upon that
three inches of sand, and then comes
hard burnt pressed brick, laid on the
edge. One street has stood for thirteen
years. The cost is 81 ,07 per square yard.
They claim it will stand under heavy
hauling. This is the introduction into
America of the Holland system, upon
which an American patent has been
obtained by some of our enterprising
fellOw-eitizens.

THE official call for the Republican

the Republican leaders, who labor only
in the interest of monopoly. as the party
always has. This buneombe joke as to

IT SEEMS by official statistics the ton
mage of the merchant marine of the
United States has remained stationary
since 1868. The increase of the COM
merce of the country has benefited only
the merchant marine of foreign nations
whose tonnage in American trade has
risen from 3,2O5,s26 tons in 1868 to 10
$4,000. The Chief Of the Bureau of Sta
tistics declares, in his report, these facts
demonstrate that the decline of Ameri-
can commerce is not due to the civil
war, but TO permanent causes.

GEN. JOHN b. GORDON, of Georgia, ex-
presses the following views upon tar
if legislation: Il am profoundly con-
yinced that the true policy of the Gov
ernment is to reach, by gradual apprOa
ches, the position generally advocated
by the Democratic party-a tariff for
revenue only, and for such an amount
of revenue only as will suffice to sup
port the Government, administered on
the most economical basis and in the
interest of the great body of its people.
Hence hope to see that party triumph
in the next Presidential election. But
if the people at the next general cleo
tiOn place the Democratic party in pow
er, IshOuld deprecate any sudden or rad
ical legislation upon this delicate and
difficult problem, lest disaster to inn
pOrtant Industries might follow, and
thus retard rather than hasten the con-
summation of this benefcent policy.
This country is so vast, and its interests
and industries dependent one upon an
other, to a greater or less degree are so
varied and interviewer, that the wisest
statesman will be most diffident and
careful in dealing with them"

IN answer to the charge that the Dem.
Ocrats only desired to turn the Repub.
licans out of the offices, the New York
Sun says:
OF course every public man must
speak for himself, and so must every
public journal; but on behalf of the
real Democracy we protest that the
struggle of 1876 and the struggle of
1880 we're not for offices, but for pTiDci-
pies. The reform of the Government is
not only real issue, but is far grander
and more important than the reform
of the tariff.

REPUBLICAN platform makers are

REPUBLICAN platform makers are al
ready at work, and insist on making
prominent as issues: "Elevating and
dignifying American protect
ing and extending home industries" is
the talk. American labor wants just
now to be paid living wages, which it
is not likely to extract from buncOmbe
political platforms which prate about
dignity and elevation" These are the
fellows who import cheap white labor
from Europe or advocate Chinese labor.
