See proceedings ’of Democratic convention on third page. “And Satan came also,” is the phrase i logy in which the Republican introduces Bob. Ingersoll to the Methodist General Conference, at Cincinnati. Bob furnisaed a leading editorial for the Republican a few weeks since. The way the Republicans have managed the finances of the Government is shown by the investigation of the books; erasures and alterations, and $.140,000,000 in lump gone—no telling where—probably into a Republican election corruption fund. Secretary Evarts’ reqtest to the Committee on A[.propriatiocs to pro vide $50,000 for the entertainment of the King of Siam is reported by the St. Louis Republican to have called out this statesmanlike remark from one of the Committee: “It is just as I expected. Grant has been entertained over there, and lias invited everybccy to return his visit, expecting the Government to pay the expense.-, and this is the first in the.raft.” The Democratic Convention of last Saturday designated te morrow for conventions to appoint delegates to the County Convention which will as semble at this place Saturday of next week and put in nomination a Democratic County ticket. The time given ' is short—too short—but we trust this fact will prompt to greatly increased effort# to secure full attendance in the several township meetings, and deliberate, careful attention to the business entrusted to them.

The meeting of the Democratic Central Committee in the parlors o» the Nowels House, on last Saturday, was largely attended, not only by members of the committee, but by solid, substantial representative democrats from all parts of the county. Horace Strong, whose years number over the alloted three score and ten was called to the chair and presided with a vim that would have done cred it to many of half his years. All in all, the spirit manifested betokened that the Democracy of Jasper county mean I usincss year, and will go into the contest, with a determination it hasnever before felt to win. So be it.

COLLOQUIALISM--NO. 3.

Ringster—Well, Bitters, you took it into your head to respond to Mack yourself, this week? Bitters—Yes, and didn’t I Ringster—Hold on, old brsg. No you didn’t. In your first item.you attempt to furnish a reason for the very general impression that you do not furnish the brains for your paper. - The simple, plain reason is they know you lack in the brain department. They know, too, that ’Tro-quois,” our beloved consul, myself and others, do it for you. Bitters—H-h-h-how do you know» then, that I am the author of the a-a-attaeks upon Mack, this week? Ringster—Their brevity and extreme emptiness point very readily to the author. Then, again, the stupid falsehoods you utter with reference to the standing of Mack with members of his party. Everybody knows that the utmost harmony and good feeling exists between them, and they know, also, that your imaginary democratic leaders entertain for you feelings of pity and contempt, and laugh at you r discomfiture. You are the last man in whom they would confide. Bitters—W-w-why you instructed me to pursue that p-p p-policy. Ringster—Y'o i lie; I didn’t. I told you to work to create a feeling of distrust and dissatisfaction. Instead of that, fool-like, you parade the idea that it is an existing fact, and now they are all laughing at you. Bitters—Well, I can’t heip it. The older I get, the bigger fool I become. I wish I was as free from interference as Mack. He takes the liberty to map his own line of action, of course with a view to the success of his party and principles, but they don’t hamper him as you do me. If I could I’d sell out.

Ringster—Yes, but you want us to do by you as they did in Rochester—give you three prices for your office in order to get shut of you, but we can’t do that. Don’t be such an old ass. Try and do better. Follow out our orders more explicitly in the future, aad may be things may take a turn for the better. Bitters - I don’t know. I’m equally unfortunate in the otherdepartments. I got the deuce last week for intimating that the nomination of Grant might occasion the organization of a third party. This week I- try to explain, and now I am catching h—hot shot for that. Ringster—You infernal old fool! What else could you expect? Bitters —But I nave pledges from Blaine, in case of his election— Ringster—Let Blaine go to the devil- You are not fit for the most insignificant position. Most likely he’d put you off, as our Fraud did your predecessor, with an appointment to Turk Island. James indignantly refused it. You, however, are fool enough io accept anything. Bitters- But, I think Blaine’ll act fair. I have his picture on my office door. He’s a large man, good looking—looks something like me— Ringster—You conceited package of asafoetidft, onions and garlic! If he looks anything like you, then let us have Grant and a third party! Bitters - Well, I can’t help my make up any more than I can write a fair

news item. A few weeks ago I published a three or four line local, the only production of my own in the whole paper, and in the evening up come a respectable old lady to the office. She didn’t get sight of me, I was hid. But didn’t she go right across the hall and request Mack to inform that l}ing old fool of tire Republican tnar rotten eggs were as cheap here as in Rochester. Ringster—What did she mean by leaving such a request and warning? Bitters—Why, you see, I was egged once in Rochester. Ringster- So, then, change cf location has not improved your disposition nor qualification to conduct a paper? Bitters—No. Wish I bad never seen Rensselaer. \\ ish I was back in Rochester. Ringster—Well, Bitters, so do I» ami the Republican party. You have proved to be a"n a-u-c-i-a-t i-n-giiz-zle,” and through your blunders we wjH “loose”the county.

HAYES’ LAST VETO.

The appointment of Deputy Marshals by United States Marshals, to secure an honest administration of Federal election laws, has not hitherto worked well. A most infamous gang of scoundrels of high and low degree were appointed, and the most flagrant outrages upon the lights of citizens were perpetrated. To icmedy such a state of things became tin imperative duty of Congress. It lias sought to accomplish the work. The right to appointment of Deputy Marshals was taken from the United States Maishals ami conferred upon United State- Judges; and, that no wrongs should be committed, the law vetoed by Hayes required that these Deputy Marshals should be taken in equal numbers from each of the two political parties, and that they sho’d be men of good moral character, and be able to read and write. This mea sure, so fair and just in itself, is tne proposition of Congressman Garfield, of Ohio; but it did not suit such men as Edmunds and other Republicans who realize the fact that honest elec lion means the defeat of the Republican party; and Hayes, knowing that he owes his position to fraud, forgery and perjury, desires that Louisiana liars shall have another chance to reverse the will of the American people. “We undertake to say,” says a contemporary, “that there is no Republican alive who will risk his standing among his fellow men, by saying, over his own signature, that the provision vetoed is not just and right in the object it attempts of departisanizing the Federal election laws and making them so that neither party can use them as an instrument of oppression against the other. The author of the provision vetoed is General Garfield, a leading Republican of Mr. Hayes’ official family The statement of the provision gives to the veto of it a condemnation that speaks for itself. It will be noticed that Hayes bases his veto on the fact that the provision came to hint as a rider on an appropriation bill, and does not consider the provision itself at all. On that he reserves his opinion; he merely lectures Congress on the way in which he thinks it ought to pass bills. The impudence of this is plain enough; but the tender-footed manner in which both Houses have stepped round this pulpy and fraudulent interloper justly entitles the Senators and Representatives to tke indignity of being lectured by him. It is not pretended that the rider did not at ford Mr. Hayes as good a caance to examine and declare on the subject as any other method. He merely says to Congress, ‘lf you do not pass your bills in a manner satisfactory to me, I will veto them irrespective of my views about their merits.’ This is assurance in official life akin to the insolence wich in private life is cured and characterized by a kick. That Congress should be reduce/! to the oosition of exposing itself to a lesson on forms of procedure by a fraud should impress on it the effect of its own criminal consideration for and toward that fraud. And to show what an arrant hypocrite Hayes himself is, the reader ought to bear in mind that with this very veto against a rider, because it is a rider, went into Congress Mr. Hayes’approval of the rider on the army bill forbidding the use of troops at the polls! Riders have been used by both parties for ove sixty years in Congress, Republican Congresses passed over 1,200 riders in four years for President Johnson’s consideration, and over 800 in the same time for President Lincoln’s. There were over 300 riders a year passed by Republican Congresses for President Grant’s consideration for eight years. These Presidents signed them all and objected to none of them. It is reserved for the fraud, never elected President, to be the first one to criticise a method that is uni versal in all Nationfil Parliaments, and that has not been habitual with the Commons since magna charta.” It is easy enough seen that Hayes hopes to maintain the Deputy Marshal iniquity as at present constituted, and to this fact Congress will be required to direct its attention. The Philadelphia Times (Ind.) remarks that ”if the Democrats could have directed the action of the Executive to serve their partisan purposes, they could not have made him better promote their interests, and that the Democrats have a plain path before them. ‘The rider to which Hayes pretended to object should at once be sent to him as a separate bill. If he shall veto it, the responsibility will be upon himself and his party.’ ” In that event, the Times says “the Marshal’s deficiency bill should then bs re enacted with the vetoed rider retained. and if he shall again veto it, Con gress will have done its duty and all

appropriations for that department of the Government should be resold tuly refused.” The bill forbidding the assessment of money on Government employes, although it has only been introduced in the Senate, is already bearing abundant fruit. The withdrawal of Kernan, the editor of that great Republican organ, rhe Okalon.i States, demonstrates that the compaign fund has run short. Kernan kntw-his business, and made it business, and when Republican contributions failed he doubtless thought it high time-to retire from business. When he stepped down and out, the Republican party lost the most faithful journalistic friend ir has had for many years. There will be universal grief in that parly now that he has departed from the profession.

The Two Tanners.

The democratic party is marching iug under the starry banner of a reconciled republic, fiaternal and free. Thn radical party marches under the filth}' rag of the bloody shirt. There is no question as to which is [(referred by the people cf this great’ restored republic. They have hud enough of gore, of misrepresentation, of angry and tumultuous conflict.---They have had enouga corruption, enough extravagance, enough official peculation, and enough returning boards. They demand peace and order, prosperity and law, reform and honest govei ninent.

The bloody shirt is the ensign of the origan d. The desperadoes who carry it have robbed the South of many millions of dollars, and the republic of millions -more. And by their plots ami conspiracies, they have, at various times, set the rabble of the South quarreling with each other; and then used the consequen ces of their own villainies to fire the Northern heart into perpetuating their powei to plunder the people. Hold high aloft the flag of the free, push forward the standard of the punisher of thieves and press on the column.—New Albany Ledger. Hon. Frank Hurd, in his speech be. fore the Democratic Convention of Ohio, said:

The old watchwords and battle cries of the party must be heard again. The maintenance of the right" and sovereignty oi the States inviolate as the surest guaranty of the perpetuity of the Union; no consolidation of power in the Federal Government; an indestructible union of indestructible states; opposition to monopolies; death to the National banking system; a currency as good as gold and silver and based upon them and issued under constitutional authority; the utmost liberty to the private citizen consistent with the public safety;, no sumptuary laws; the removal of embarrassing restriction upon trade; tariff lor revenue only, with the ultimate view of free trade with all the world; the" most for the man, the least for the Government; tiie uplifting, the exalting of the individual; the limiting, the restraining of governmental power—these were the battle cries of the Democratic party from 1798! They are hallowed by the immortal lips which uttered thaml They were incarnated in the administration of the Federal Government by the Democratic party for nearly a century! They were hushed in the thunder of the civil strife, and stifled in its smoke: they were silenced ih the despotism of the reconstruction era. Let them be revived tn 1880. Let them be shouted on every hillside and valley in the land until in the trumpet tones of triumph they are declared in November next- to be as of yore the sentiments of the American people.

D. APPLETON & CO. By Hiuam Hadley, Agt. Indianapolis, April 24,1880. After a few explanatory remarks by the Comity Superintendent, it was moved by A. J. Yeoman, that unless Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., of Cincinnati, would offer their ‘•McGuffey’s Revised Reader ’on the same terms as Appleton’s Readers were offered in the foregoing proposition, that Appleton's Readers be adopted for use in the county. The motion was duly seconded and thoroughly discussed. The vote of the Board was as follows : For the motion, A. J. Yeoman, I. J. Porter, William Van’t Woucl, S. R Nichols, Charles ].oshbaugh, Lucias Strong. William Cooper, W S Stevens, George Stalbaum. Against the motion'. 1. M. Jones, M illiam Henkle. As it requires a unanimous vote to make an adoption at this time the motion was lost. The following preamble and resolution was then adopted : Whereas ; The law expressly makes it the duty of the truetees of the several townships of the State to select and employ the teachers for their schools, and W hereas; The State authorities are urging a compliance with this provision of the law from the fact that it has given the most eminent satisfaction wherever it has been generally enforced, Therefore be it Resolved—That the School Trustees of this county be required to carry out, so far as possible this provision of the law, in good faith, choosing

I I for their respective schools the best teachers ■ which it is in their power to provide. (hi motion anti second it was ordered that the | County Board of Education issue a certificate of | honor as a mark of approbation to each pnpil in ■ the comity who lias missed no time from school I during the school year of 18711 and 1880. Carrico. I Adjourned to meet in regular session on the I first dav of September, 1880. D. B. Nowels, | L. Strong, Sec y. President.

It makes but little difference whether defeat comes at the Chicago convention or at the polls in November, Grant will no longer be the hero of the American people and of the civilized world. He has forfeited his right to that respect which a grateful public would always have accords I him by his overriding an unwritten law, and attempting to force i.is way into the White House for a third term as President He can never be President again, and having tiied and ‘a 1ed, he will be lost to sight and memory as all great men who have reached the pinnacle vs fame toppled and fell into obscurity by some injudicious act of their own.—Rochester .Sentinel.

General Conference M. E. Church.

Reduced. Kaifroad Ra' esThe General Conference of the M E. Church will bo held in Cincinnati May Ist to 28th. 1880. Many import’ ant subjects will be considered, and the discussions and action thereon will be of unusual interest. The strongest men of the Church, ministers and laymen, will participate in the debates. Bishops will be elected to fill/vacancies—laymen admitted to representation in the Conference, foreign delegates received with interesting ceremonies, special services held in memory of deceased Bishops, ete The Pittsburgh, Cincinnati & St. Louis Railway Co.—Pan-Handle Routehave agreed to return delegates paying full fare over its line lo Cincinnati, at the rate of one cent per mile upon certificate of Secretary. Those preferring to purchase round-trip ex cursion tickets, can procure orders for such tickets by addressing W. L. O’Brien, General Passenger Agent, Pan Handle Route, Columbus, O. It is, perhaps, needless to remind delegates that there are more frequent trains to and from Cincinnati by Pan-Handle Route, than by any other line. It is the shortest, best constructed, and most perfectly equipped road leading to that city.

jH BALD fln HEAD ’ S A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY I CARBOLINE I A Deodorized extract of Petroleum, The Only Article that Will Restore Hair on Bald Heads. What the World has been Wanting for Centuries. The greatest^discovery of our day, so far as a large portion of humanity is concerned, ia CARBOLINE, an article prepared from petroleum, and which effects a complete and radical curs in cass of baldness, or where the hair, owing to diseases of the scalp, has become thin and tends to fall out. It is also a speedy restorative, and while its use secures it luxuriant growth of hair, it also brings back the natural color, and gives the most complete satisfaction in the using. The falling ont of the hair, the accumulations of dandruff, and the premature change in color are all evidences of a diseased ooadition of the scalp and the glands which nourish the hair. To arrest these causes the article used must possess medical as well as chemical virtues, and the change must begin under the scalp te bo of permanent and lasting benefit. Such an article is CARBOLINE, and, like many other wonderful discoveries, it is found to consist of elements almost in their natural state. Petroleum oil is the article which is made to work such extraordinary results ; but it is after it has been chemically treated and completely deodorized that it is in proper condition for the toilet. It was in far-off Russia that the effect of petroleum upon the hair was first observed, a Government officer having noticed that a partially bald-headed servant of his, when trimming tho lamps, had a habit of wiping his oil-besmeared hands in his scanty locks, and the result was in a few months a much liner head of black, glossy hair than lie ever had before The oil was tried on horses and cattle that had lost their hair from th® cattle plague, and the results were as rapid as they were marvelous. The manes and even the tails of horses, which had fallen out, were completely restored in a few weeks. These experiments were, heralded to the world, but the knowledge was practically useless to the prematurely bald and gray, as no one in civilized society could tolerate the use of refined petroleum as a dressing for the hair. But th* skill of one of our chemists lias overcome the difficulty. and by a process known only to himself, he has, after very elaborate and costly experiments, succeeded in deodorizing relined petroleum, which renders it susceptible of being handled as daintily as the famous eatt de cologne. The experiments with the deodorized liquid on the- human hair were attended with tlic most astonishing results. A few applications, where the hair was thin and falling, gave remarkable tone and vigor to the scalp and hair. Every particle of dandruff disappears oa the first or second dressing, and the liquid so searching in its nature, seems to penetrate to the roots at once, and set up a radical change from tin- start. It is well known that the most beautiful colors ar* made from petroleum, and, by some mysterious operation of nature, the use of this article gradually imparts a beautiful light-brpwn color to th* hair which by continued use, deepens to a black. The color remains permanent for an indefinite length of time, and the change is so gradual that the most intimate friends can scarcely detect its progreu. In a Word, it is the most wonderful discovery of the age, and well calculated to make the prematurely bald and gray rejoice. We advise our readers to give it a trial, feeling satisfied that, one application will convince them or its wonderful effects.— Pittsburgh Commercial sf Oct. 22, 1877. The article is telling its own story in the hands of thousands who are using it with the most gratifying and encouraging results : W. 11. Brill & Co., Fifth Avenue Pharmacy, s*y*. “We have sold preparations, for the hair for upwar* of twenty years, but have never had one to »«11 M well or eiye such universal satisfaction. W« therefore recommeml ii wit h confidence to our friend* and the general public.” Mr. Gustavus F. llall, of the Oates Opera Troupe, writes: “After six weeks’ use lam convinced, as are also my comrades, thut your ‘Carboline’ has and is producing a wonderful growth of itair where 1 had none for years.” C. IL Smith, of the Jennie Hight Combination, writes: “ After using your ‘ Carboline’ three weeke I am convinced that bald heads can be ‘re-haired.’ It’s simply wonderful in my case.” B. F. AnTHVit, chemist, Holyoke, Mass., write*: “ Your ‘ Carboline’ has restored my hair after everything else had failed.” Joseph E. Pond, attorney-at-law, No. Atriebore, Mass., writes : For more than 20 years * portion as my head has been as smooth and free from heir a* * billiard ball, but some eight weeks age I w»» induced to try your CarboTine, and this e<ect ha* been simply wonderful.
