tiers Of Ohio, leads to an old reminis-
cence in the Hartford Courd,st. His

andshis singular name originated thus
In the early history Of Middletown,
Mr.. Jonathan Meigs asked q lady to
become his wife. She refused him,
and Meigs felt SO badly that he left her
house weeping. She, observing his
grief, cried out to him when he was Z
few rods from her, "Return, Jonathan
Meigs." He went back, she accepted
dim, and they were married. He de-
clared that the words uttered by the
young woman gave him more comfort
than any other that he ever heard.
Therefore, wishing to express his graf
itude, he named his first child Return
Jonathan Meigs. The son became

Republican Reconstruction.

The republican party having had
the whole management OF recon
struction in the south according to
its own plan and specifications, and
being cognizant, as it claims, Of
blo0dshed and terrorism there
during all its administrations, is not
complimenting itself very highly by
bowling about, it in this campaign.
1t now says after being bounced "for
corruption and general incapacity,"
that this fair count" question must
be settled. Now that it has lost its
grip 1t is going to do something des-
perate. SO long as it could barely
keep itself in power and control the
offices it was comparatively quiet
and peaceful, but now its belliger-
ent patriotism is equal to that of
1861. A little more nerve when it
had q chance might have been a
specific for keeping it in national
power.-[ Fayette Postal Card.
