flying at the front. A closer inspec-
ton, however, revealed the fact that
on either side of the Regiment march
ed line of grim Yankees with fixed
bayonets.
"What does this mean, boys" We
asked Of a jolly looking Johnny" as
we passed.
'You see," replied the Reb., when
we came up towards Nashville, some
days ago, some of us had some misgiv-
ings as to our ability to get in; but
old Pap Hood assured us that we should
go into Nashville with our flags fly
ing. Our Colonel repeated the prom
ise, and when we had to give in, yes
terday we twitted our Colonel about
his promise. He Immediately went
to the Yankee officer in charge and
asked permission to march in with fly
ing colors, which that officer, seeing
the joke, permitted. And here we go
on our victorious march O. on Nash
Vile. And I'm glad the things over!"
And the Regiment, with their Yam
kee consort marched on, the Yankee
and Rebel Colonels riding side by side
and enjoying the humorous side Of
the picture. It was thus that streaks
of mirth and sunshine occasionally
crept in to brighten the generally
dreary experience, and the hardships
Of the soldiers life.

One night last week, a man and
woman named Wilkinson were driven
from their home in Cincinnati by wa
ter. The first thing they did, both of
them, was to get roaring drunk. They
were arrested and placed in the sta
tion, when they began raving about
their dog. A little grizzly pup was
found and restored to them, when the
woman seemed content. But the
man continued to rave about his dog
until he fell, choking and exhausted,
on the floor. Their dog and their
whisky seemed to be all they desired
to live for. 1t would have been mer-
ciful to have permitted them to
drown

That's it! Fight it to the last, Mr..

terfere with your business Of destroy

know, has an inalienable right to pois-
on people for money, and any punish
ment brought upon himself is, accor-

after you go on in your internal work

suspension Of sentence, the people
should give you sentence of sus-

was offered and bill was introduced
in the Senate both looking to the

fance, were reported on Wednesday
and passed both Houses. The bill

tine of Clark, John Byrne CT C1er-
mont, VIM. H. Wallace Of Jefferson,

P. W. Huntington OF Franklin coun-
ty. The money is to be used to pur-
chase supplies for the needy sufferers
by the flood, and to forward and dis
tribute the same through relief COM
mittees. This measure was opposed
by some on the ground of its being
unconstitutional: but if the trainers
of that instrument could have fore
seen the terrible calamity that has
unexpectedly come to many thousands
of the inhabitants Of the Ohio valley,
no doubt provision would have been
made for relief in such an event and
sympathy for the the thousands need
ing relief is, or should be, sufficient
reason for voting for the appropria-
ton Of money for that purpose.
A large number Of local bills have
been introduced during the week and
few of general nature, among
which [ notice one to establish State
Asylum for the cure Of Inebriates.
A resolution was passed authorizing
the Adiutant General to loan tents to
sufferers by the flood.
A large number of petitions are be-
ing sent in praying for the passage of
law creating a State Board of Health,
and regulating the practice Of medi-
cine.

The Ohio Legislature appropriated
two hundred thousand dollars for the
relief of sufferers by the floods, in this
State. This appropriation was vigor-
ously opposed by Allen 0. Myers, and
a few more Democratic statesmen of
the same school. If it had been an
attempt to appropriate money to buy
whisky to get out the Democratic vote
in the river cities, these "Constooshnal"
statesmen would doubtless have been
wonderfully enthusiastic in its favor.
But starving and freezing women and
children appeal in vain to the hearts
of some of these Democratic states
men. Is it not time that such cattle
were kept out Of the Legislature?

Allen o. Myers the irate and eter-
nal disturber of things and gabbler in
general, has introduced bill into the
House to reorganize the Ohio Peniten-
tiary. He not only reorganizes that
"time-honored" institution but he
seeks to change its name. His bill
calls it ''The House of Detention" So
that if his bill passes we shall hear no
more of the harsh and vulgar name of
Ohio Penitentiary, but the more ele-
CANT and chaste name Of House Of
Detention. No man will thereafter
be disgraced by being sent to the
Penitentiary. but merely detained"
for time in Columbus. Detained"
is a mild yet rather expressive word.
Allen will push his bill through un-
less the House concludes to set down
on and "detain" it.
And another lunatic, not to be out
done in softening the ragged edges of
our penal and reformatory institutions,
has introduced bill recognizing the
Reform school, changing its name to
that of School Of Progress for Boys"
The ordinary boy has to put up with
common schools; but those Of the kind
ofPeck' bad boy who become UNCOVER
nable at home, are sent tothe "School
of Progress" to enjoy its superior ben
efts and advantages.
Light the torch of progress" low
tax, and reform, then ''speed, Malise,
speed" and let the world understand
that Ohio is not going to disgrace her
citizens, however bad they may be, by
confning them in penitentiary, but
merely ''detain" them for time. AS
to our bad boys, they are to to be sent
scooting on the road Of progress"
Hail, Columbia!
The above, from one Of our esteem
ed Democratic exchanges. shows that
even Democratic paper can some
times become disgusted with too much
nonsense.

Wedo not know where Mr. Menke is from

he must have been unusually fpll OF

bill. By the first section any incorporated coma
pany failing to pay its hands every fifteen days,

any corporation which contracts to abide by
the first section, shall be fined not more than
$780, nor LESS than $50. This also takes in indi-

will spit upon it, and disregard it.
