In speaking of feats of Workmanship,
an old citizen told of remarkable shot
made by noted local marksman in the
lower part of the county, while butcher
ing for an old gentleman named Tim.
Morris. The marksman had shot all the
hogs but one, when his hands became so
numb and cold that he could not load the
gun, and asked some of the young men to
load for him. This they did, but merely
rammed down the patching" without
any bullet. The shooter took square aim
at the pig, but never made him vince.
Chagrined at his miss" he asked the
boys to DAD again. This time they tried
the same thing. but the ramrod punched
through the patching And became fasten-
ed. AS it would not come out. the boys
coaxed the shooter to fire, declaring that
the ramrod would go into the ground,
and the bullet into the pig. The shooter
took careful aim. and blazed away. He
made center shot, and the ramrod was
driven into the pigs head, but failed to
kill him. The pig struck out like deer,
the ramrod sticking up from his head
like long horn. "Catch him, boys
catch hint" yelled the shooter, but seeing
that they failed, called out. "Where's my
coat? Quick, I'll smother him !''

From the Commercial Gazette we learn
the interesting piece of news that the
nomination of John Mcbride for Secre-
tary of State by the Democratic Conven-
tion at Toledo, was the work of the old
Mossback Democrats, as testimony of
their hatred of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
and John r. Mclean. Dear friends, they
don't do things that way. The Demo-
Gratis may "cuss" the paper occasionally
in fact we have heard them do it in
these parts-but they always swallow its
statements as gospel truth at last. No,
no. friendsl The Democrat will not go
back on the Enquirer, no more than an
infant will refuse milk

The convention here last week was one
of the inest-looking bodies of men ever
assembled in the town. In most of the
delegations the old-time, active workers
in the party were to be seen, in company
with Intelligent, earnest, enthusiastic
young men. 1t was a good sign, one
fore-shadowing victory at the polls.

Among the many anecdotes recalled by
the Reunions of the old regiments, is that
of the remark of Andrew Jackson Daily
('Black Jack'O in Virginia. The Union
troops had captured German Repel spy
and proposed to hang him. The poor fel-
low was trying hard to pray in German.
Jack, who was an odd kind Of creature,
listened to his excited effort for some
time, then broke out with "pray sohite,
pray aU7titet Do you think the good Lord
can understand such internal gibberish
as that?" Poor Jack His intentions
probably were to assist the fellow in his
appeals for mercy. Jack was himself
slain in battle afterWard.

From a paper received from Dayton
friend, we learn, through marked arti-
Gle, that there have been but few old sol
diers up before the Mayor, since the open
ing of the doggery at the Soldiers Home.
This is perhaps intended as an argument
in favor of the righteousness of the estab-
lishment of the den. The scene has been
shifted. Instead of the doggery-keepers
of Dayton filching from the pockets of
the old soldiers, the Government does it

The Republicans of Lick township
should hold primary elections next year,
and generally turn out and vote. Cen
orally speaking, there are always excel
lent candidates-such as we had this
year, and no danger of making a mistake.
But for ten or twelve of us to meet in
secret and fix up tickets, is mistake,
and not the way to preserve harmony in
the party.

Marshal Martin tells of a novel method
of peddling, which came under his OBJ
servation, few evenings ago. A well
known drinking man was observed try
ing to sell a package, the price asked be-
ing dime. A sale was finally effected,
and he started off after his liquor, when
inspection developed the fact that the
parcel contained a quart can of blackber

have money tied up in blackberries, when
it would buy liquor.

There is vast difference between a
political leader and a stormy political
driver. Halstead is the latter kind of
a politician. He never leads, but al
ways attempts, violently, to drive his
peculiar ideas into the readers Of his
paper 1t is only since the union Of
the Commercial with the staid and re-
liable old Cincinnati Gazette, that it
has been known where Halstead stood
politically. Up to that time he was a

We had talk few days ago with a
man who Joined the volunteer militia for
gan's forces, when they were raiding
through Jackson County, and learned
some of the exciting experiences of that
dangerous time. The forces started in
two squads, one by way of keystone, the
other from Jackson, the general destina-
tion being in the neighborhood of Vim
ton, Gallia County. The Jackson party
marched through by Latrobe Furnace,
where they stopped over night. The next
day while on the march, they saw man
coming over hill, leading one horse and
riding another. At sight of the militia
the man whirled and lit out on a dead
run. The troops went on a little further
when they met some men who didn't run.
The boys hastily broke their guns and
threw away the pieces, then abandoned
the field to the enemy.
The other squad-which went by Key
stone-met the enemy, who took away
their guns and turned them loose On
the way home, defeated and crestfallen,
they met a number of Rebels who were
tired of raiding and wanted to give up to
them. This was joyful experience, and
they took in the Rebs, marching them into
Oak Hill with much ceremony, the COM
mander riding upon Rebel mule 1t
was grand triumphal procession-if it
had been captured on both sides.

1t will be Just as we'll for the Republ-

1t will be Just as well for the Re publ
can voters to emember-especially the
young voters, who were not eye-witnesses
of the circumstances-th the Demo
cratic party which asks their votes to-
day, is the same party which
organized butternut company in Jack
son county, to march on, and burn the
town, when great many of the able
bodied men of town were out in the field
thrashing the other wing of the Demo-
cratic party, in the South. These butter
nuts had of course their instructions
from the Knights of the Golden Circle,
and at a time when it was in contempla-
tion to burn the Northern towns and
cities in order to assist their brethren in
the South, the town of Jackson was Sc
lected as one of the doomed towns. Only
the fear that there might be few sick
soldiers home on furlough, kept the good
Democrats from capturing the town.
This is the same party which asks for the
votes of the young men to-day.
The question of nominating candidates
for county offices by the Baber Law pro-
cess, was brought before the County Con-
vention last week, but was laid upon the
table There was a good-natured discus
sion of the plan by r, H. Jones, III. G.
Bum. DR.. Warren, Armpstead Scufloak,
J. M. Tripp, and others. This matter is
of course in the nature of problem
here. Those who have seen it tried else
where, seem favorably impressed with
the plan, though there are doubtless some
disadvantages to be encountered. No
plan that could be selected, perhaps,
would work with absolute perfection,
1t is hoped that the Republicans of the
county will give this matter careful con-
sideration before another County Con-
vention, and take vigorous and decisive
action upon the matter if brought up
again. What we all want, of course, is
the best possible method-nothing that
will give one locality an advantage over
another.
