Democratic i1i Spite of Honey.
TSDecial Telepram IN the GIohaI =

COLUMBUS, o., Oct. 2.-The great political
struggle in Ohio continues to increase, and re-
ports from every section of the state bring en-
couraging news for the Democracy. The Repub-
lcan Comedy company is still giving exhibitions,
but not meeting with the success which was an
ticipated. 1t is now realized by Republicans
that their greatest mistake of the campaign has
been made in allowing the hippodrome to be pre-
sented as an attraction to secure voters While
they have been spending time and money
with such foolish absurdity, their
opponents have been quietly but earnestly at
work, and the result of the labor will surely be
another victory at the state election, notwith-
standing the fact that the Republicans have over
S5OO,0OO with which to purchase votes. AS usual
an honest canvas is a secondary matter with
them, and they appear determined to again re-
gain control of the state by using all the cor
ruptible means at hand

AN INSTANCE.

The 'Confdential'' circulars sent out by the
Republican central committe few days ago are
not having the desired effect, as the following,
which is written by a soldier and one of the
prominent citizens of the county will show:
Mt. VERNON, o., Sept. 30, 1884. To John F,
Ogilvie, Esq, Chairman Republican Committee,
Dear Sir: Inclosed find confidential circular of
the 10th, which return to you, and will say that
in justice to myself and my fellow workingmen
of this country / refuse to support the Repub-
lican ticket any longer, as l am fully satisfied
from the action of the leaders of that party in
importing pauper labor into this country and
sending out official documents that are nothing
but pack of hes for the purpose of
deceiving the working class, and from the condi-
ton of the working classes in this country to-day,
myself or any other working man would be fool
to support such party any longer. Instead OF
doing as you ask me, will try and convince my
Republican friends, who are numerous, of their
mistake and do all in my power
for the support of the Democratic
ticket at this election, as 1 am satisfied
that the condition of the working class will not
be better until we have change. Yours respect
fully, GEORGE j. DOYLE.
The above is but one expression of the opinion
of thousands of Republicans who have become
completely disgusted with the management of
their party and are resolved not to be on board
when the ship seeks the final resting place.

The scheme OF Redistribution, or, az

"reapportionment,' which Gladstone, is
ready to submit after the passage of the
Franchise Bill is designedto reapportion
the vote of the United Kingdom, othat
the 1000 600 new voters to be added to
constituencies may not derange the basis
representation. The new voters will be
mainly county householders. The Eng
lish House Of Commons consists of 652
members, of whom 172 represent Eng
fish counties and 2S2 English Dor
oughs; Is represent Welsh boroughs
and Is Welsh counties; 80 represent
Scotch counties and 26 Scotch
boroughs, and 81 represent Irish
counties and 81 Irish boroughs. The
boroughs in all divisions of the kingdom
are much more literally represented
than the counties, the former having al
average of "a, GOO Al, 900 votes to the
member. and the latter $500 to H.

reduce the English borough represen.
tation to 229 and to increase the county

From All the Year Round.
After the toll and turmoil,
And the anguish of trust belied;
Afte' the burden of weary cares.
bathed longings, ungrantcd prayers;
After the passion, and fever, and fret,
After the aching Of vain regret,
After the hurry and heat of strife,
The yearning and tossing that men call life;
Faith that mocks, and fair hopes denied,
We-shan be satisfied.
When the golden bowl is broken,
At the sunny fountain side;
When the turf lies green and cold above
Wrong, and sorrow, and loss, md love;
When the great dun walls Of silence stand
At the doors of the undiscovered lanu:
When all we have left in our olden rdace
Is an empty chair, and pictured face,
When the prayeris prayed, and the sigh is sighed
We-shall be satisfied.
What does it boot to question,
When answer il aye denied!
Better to listen tho Psalmist's rede,
And gather the comfort of his creed;
And in peace and patience possess our souls,
While the wheel Of fate in its orbit rolls,
Knowing that sadness and gladness pass
Like morning dews from the summer grass,
And, when once we win to the farther side,
We-shall all be satisfied.

The slaughter of brakemen on Il
railroads reaches alarming proportions.
The mortality among this class from ac-
,idents suffered in the line of their duty
reaches the enormous number of four
thousand year. A large proportion of
these deaths result from the dangerous
system of coupling cars with link and
pin. Massachusetts is making an eff.
fort to check the slaughter by requiring
all the roads in the state to equip their
cars with automatic couplers rs soon as
the railroad commissioners shall have
decided upon the best device. Humanity
ought to lead all companies to follow
the example of the Baltimore & Ohio.
which has of its own motion adopted
such a coupler, and they probably will
upon being fully satisfied of its merits,
for it is not to be assumed that railroad
managers are Indifferent to the serious
loss of life under the present systems of

How a Cholera Patient feels.

The patient feels we'll up to within a
few hours of the attack, or, it may be.
goes to bed and sleeps soundly through
the night, and Immediately on rising in
the morning is seized with violent
purging and vomiting. If judicio lsly
treated many patients recover from this,
the first stage of cholera; but if neglect
ed, the tendency of the disease is to
grow rapidly worse. The patient com
plans OF intense thirst and a burning
heat at the pit Of the stomach; he suf-
fers also excruciating pain from cramps
in the muscles of the extremities; he is
terribly restless, and his urgent cry is
for water to quench his thirst and that
some one might rub his limbs, and thus
relieve the muscular spasm. The pulse
is rapid and very weak, the respirations
are hurried and the patients voice be-
comes husky. His countenance is
pinched and the integument of his
body feels inelastic and doughty,
while the skin of his hands and
feet becomes wrinkled and purplish
in color. The duration of this, the
second stage of cholera, is very uncer-
taln-it may lastfor two or three hours
only; or may continue for twelve or
fifteen hours but so long as the pulse
car be felt at the wrist there are good
hopes Of the sick persons recovery. The
weaker the pulse becomes, the nearer
the patient is to the third. or collapse,
stage OF cholera, from which probably
not more than IS per cent. recover. In
the third stage of the disease the vomi-
ting and purging continue, although in
a mitigated form; and the skin is COW
cred with a clammy perspiration, es-
p%ecially if the cramps are still severe.
The patient remains terribly restless,
longing only for sleep, and that lie may
be supplied with water. His intellect
is clear but he seldom expresses any anx-
iety regarding worldly affairs, although
fully conscious of the dangerous condi-
ton he IS in. Sleep and a plentiful
supply Of drinking water are the sole
desires of o person passing through a
collapse stage of cholera. This condi-
ton seldom lasts more hal twenty
four hours, and reaction either COM
1nences within that period orthe patient
dies in collapse. OF passes on into the
tepid stage, which in ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred ends speedily in death.
On the other hand. the sick person hav-
ing been in the collapse stage of cholera
some t%wenty-four hours (it may be a
longer or shorter period, the tempera-
ture of his body may begin to rise, grad
ually creeping up to the normal stan
dard; the functions of animal life are
slowly restored, and she sick person
