PROSPERITY In OHIo.-While we
are looking on the bright side of
things, let us look at the Secretary
of-State's mortgage statistics for
Ohio. There were 71,569 mort
cages given last yaar, calling for
$7S,744,50S, while only 51,323 were
cancelled, covering S59,255,923. In
other words, the rich state of Ohio
is covered by 10000 more mort
cages than a year ago, showing
s20,O00,O00 more of debt than at
that time. Notwithstanding this in
crease of debt, every sheriff in Ohio
has been busy forecosing mortgages
and thousands OF people have been
dlspossessed. If this is prosperity,
let us have a little adversely or di-
versity for a change.-(Toledo, % }
Union.
The worse part of many a mans
disposition has been turned "right
side mp with care" while. on the other
hand, noble traits have been brought
out in others, of whom little was ex-
pected. Thus far the worse instance
Of cowardice shown during the epi-
demic in New Orleans was that OF the
Kentuckian who lett his wife. His
wife's mother was stricken with yellow
fever, with no one to care for her and
the wife could not leave her mothers
bedside. The mother died and the
wife contracted the disease and died.
A noble woman would not desert her
post of duty, but the cowardly hus-
band deserted both and hied himself
to his old Kentucky home.-Houma

But these material questions are
