Long'Poirrted~flngernaUs[are fashionable am'ong|the ladies. a new “woman’s weapon” anc are h rate to have handy on midnight strolls with susceptible masculines. It is now stated that a mixture of flour and red pepper.; foui parts to one of the latter scattered on the plants, will preserve the luscious cabbage from destruction. The recipe is worth a trial. Six deaths from lock-jaw in Cincinnati and Covington in three days. The victims were all boys who were wounded in the hand by toy pistols on the Fourth of J uly. In most cases the wounds were apparently triflingEgg festivals are the latest. Each I nly brings an egg with her name written upon it. They are deposited in a basket and before supper they are passed around and each gentleman takes one, and the lady whose name he draws is his partner for supper.

A son cf the late President Tyler was recently arrested in Washington as a common drunkard. Although he has descended to the level of a poor wretched sot, he is said to be one of the most courtly and polished men, in demeanor and conversation, to bo found in Washington. — In an article in the North American Review, Gail Hamilton says: “In the lust campaign our papers complained bitterly of Democratic mud throwing; but every clot of mud thrown at General Garfield was scooped up from a Republican puddle.” The article shows that Gail Hamilton knows whereof she speaks.

There seems to be g. general disposition, this year, to remand swaggering place-hunters to back seats. People have come to the conclusion that in justice to themselves, as much care and circumspection must be exercised in the selection of public servants, for the performance o! important and responsible duties, as would for a like purpose bo exercised by a painstaking and judicious business man in his private transactions. A ease was recently tried in the Supreme Court of Indiana wherein the appellant was seeking a divorce on account of insanity of her husband, who, having for eight years been insane, had failed to provide her with food, clothing and shelter. Judge Elliott refused a divorce on the grounds that insanity was no cause for divorce, and stated that the statute was not meant to apply to cases where the inability to make provision arose from such cause. Renssolaer Republican: * * Mr. Harris is a good man, a good Republican, and no “kieker.” His frank and manly letter well deserves a careful reading by all who take any interest in the political situation in Jasper county. There’s a pretty good puff for you, Mr. Harris. You’re a ‘no “kicker”’— These fellows say you’ll “stand up to the rack, fodder or no fodder.’' Can’t you retort in kind, since you know one of them declared, referring to you, that it was possible for the pri mary to nominate a man he wouldn’t support.

Rensselaer Republican: We publish in another place a communication from that staunch young Republican, R B. Harris, of Barkley township.— The letter was intended for our last week’s issue but reached us too late for insertion at that time. * * llow queer! The communication had reached them, but too late for insertion last week. We should think so. It was written and intended for publication in the Republican of July 13th, so say the editors of that paper and yet it bears date, “Culp, Ind.’ July 15,1882.” Evidently that communication was prepared at the headquarters of the “ring”, in Rensselaer, tne editors were cognizant of that and expected itjfor last week’s issue—it, was sent to Mr. H. for his signatureHis delay in returning it, with the date penned under his name, taken in connection with the above an nouncement of-the Republican, gives the whole thing away. Telephone Transaction.— Some days since Harry McGuire, agent foi the-Willard telephone, went to Renseela r and contracted with Emmit Kannal, of that < ity, to furnish him a telephone for S3O. The instrument was delivered as agreed, and twenty dollars cash was paid on the same. The remaining ten dollars being yet unpaid, McGuire went to Rensselaer Thursday last and took the telephone from Kannal’s place of business and boarded the train for this city. At Monticollo, Hal Smith, a young man connected with Kannal’s business, entered the ear and approaching McGuire, took from him the telephone instrument and started back to Rensselaer. McGuire informed us tosday that his reason for taking the telephone away from Kannal was that he refused to pay the balance due, claiming the telephone to be worthless. At present Smith is in possession of the telephone, bit there is no telling how many times.it may change hands in the near future.—Logansport rosWhen McGuire gets that telephone

into working shape, asjper he will get the ten dollars; or, failing in that, when he returns the twenty dollars already paid the telephone will cheerfully be turned over to him. — Mr Harris assigns three reasons for his defeat at the primary, the second being partially correct, viz:— “entirely too late in making my an*nouncement.” Had he added— the opposition cf the “ring” to my doing so; the declaration of the secretary of the committee, in effect, that he wo d not support me if aominated, and other discouragements from that direction, caused the delay,” he we’d have been about eoirect. The first reason given is zoo thin, and the third has.no foundation to support it. We believe Mr. H. to be a good man, and with all due respect to him, wo must say the reading of the letter reminded us of the story of “The Monkey, The Cat, and The Chestnuts.”

Just what a woman can do for her husband in t lie way of electioneering, is admirably illustrated by a pleasant incident in the life of Mrs. Douglas. wife of Stephen A. Douglas. It seems that the Little Giant on one occasion, when Mrs. I). gave a reception, sent a remarkably rural rustic to call, assuring him that Mrs Dwould be delighted to see him. The story proceeds as follows: “The visitor was anything but a parlor ornament, a rude, unpolished son of the prairie, unused to any of the ways of society, but a power in the politics of his home, and a man whose influence would be of vast assistance to Mr. Douglas. Entering the room gave him a -nervous chill, Mrs. Douglas* pretty greeting threw him into a nervous fever, and her inviting him out to the refreshment room completed a case of palsy. Ignoring his trepidation, she chatted away to him herself, paid no attention to his stammering refusals, and poured out the tea into some miraculous little cups of eggshell Sevres. Grasping tne fairy cas lyx in his fingers for the first sip, the delicate bit of Sevres w.ts crushed to pieces and the hot tea poured in a stream over Mrs. Douglas’silken train. With a gay laugh th< lady said: ‘How brittle they are! just look ut mine.’ and with a mighty effort she broke another cup between her fingers. Reassured, the constituent drew his breath and found himself at ease, while that incomparable hostess talk ed to him, asked him about Lis mother, his wife, and his children, a!i of whom she remembered so well and called by name. That man went home to work for. vote for, and swear by Stephen A. Douglas, and way back of his political convictions lay the pieces of those two broken teacups.” Those who read the story will at once perceive| the consummate tact of the lady. She took in the situation at a glance and from the first, and adapted herself to its requirements with a skill that met all its possibilities.— Broken tea cups anil spilled tea did not in the least disconcert her; indeed, they furnished her opportunities to display her talents and secure for her husband, not only the vote of her guest, but all the influence he.could weild among his neighbors. We doubt if woman’s influence in election cam paigns is half understood, n<#t even by candidates.

HAIL TO THE DEMOCRACY OF THE KEYSTONE STATE.

The Democracy of Pennsylvania have nominated a iicket which is the best and strongest placed in the field in that State for many years. It is a ticket thjit iu every respect meets with the approbation of the Reform ele* ment, which regards a thorough re<> form in the administration as the chief aim and mission of the Democratic party. The Camerons, by their doweriul influence hav« for years caused the successful inauguration of a re form movement to be regarded as one of the impossibilities. Now at ast a new era seems to have dawned. As proof of the earnestness with which the Democrats intend to work, they have placed at, the head of thenticket the name of Robert E. Pattisou, of Philadelphia, for Governor. Mr. Pattison is comparatively a young man, being but thirty-two years of age, but he has already made for himself a glowing record as a true reformer, All his past acts go to substantiate the truth of the assertion that he is in every way opposed to fraud and corruption. To prove that his services in behalf of the public good have not been unrecognized by the citizens of his native city, it is only neceseary to say that in 1880, when Garfield carried Philadelphia by over 20.000 majority, Mr. Pattison was re-elected comptroller of that city by a majority of over 13,000. The entire ticket nominated by the Democrats is as follows: For Governor, Robert E. Pattison, of Philadelphia; Lieutenant-Governor, Chauncy F. Black (son of Judge Jere S. Black,) of York county; Judge of the Supreme Court, Silas M. Clarke, of Indiana county; Secretary of Internal Affairs, J. Simpson Africa, of Huntingdon county; Congressman-at-Large, Mortimer F. Elliott, |of Tioga county.— Such a ticket as the above, with good management and a vigorous campaign, ought to, and from present indications will be triumphantly elected in November-

The Serpent —-One day last week Mrs. Constantine Kelm was startled by.the cries of her little eightsmonthsold baby which was nlaying on the porch. She ran out and was horrorstricken at the sight which met her eyes. One of the baby’s fingers was grasped in the mouth cf a snake. She struck the reptile two blows before it let go its hold. The child’s finger was severely lasoerated bv the fangs of the serpent, and soon it snowed signs of poison by nausea and vomiting. A liberal use of whisky res stored it to health by counteracting the poison. The snake was afterwards killed, and was discovered to be a garter snane, which is usually considered harmless. Nu doubt the child was attracted by the novelty of the sight, and may, perhaps, have tried to play with it, when the vicious rep tile seized it by the hand in spitefulness and held on till the child was rescued bv Its mother. Mr. Keim, who Isa resident .of Richland township, related these facts to the Republican and vouches for their truthfulness.—Peru Republican.

THE S. E. C.

THAT LITTLE RESOLUTION OK SLANG. At the last regular meeting of the Young Ladies’ Society for Esthetic Cultuie, a resolution, discountenance iDg the use of slang by the members of the association, created quite a spirited discussion. The following is the resolution which was offered by Miss Ten Eyck: Resolved, That the use of slang phrases i 3 unlady-like, and illy becomes the members of the S E C. t Before submitting the resolution to a vo'e, it was deemed prudent to get the opinion of the members concerning it. Miss Demure thought a ladv who would use slang was rather snide, and generally gave herself away by doing so. Tiie Chair remarked that the young lady hardly appreciated the true inwardness of the resolutio . But Miss Blake came to the rescue of Miss Demure and protested that Her Royal Nibbs in the chair was a little off in her chin music, and was ' guying the whole outfit. She advised ■ the Chair to pull down her basque, as ] it were. Miss Pleasant thought slang was O. K-, and remarked in an off-hand man ner, that last nieht on the av' she had dead loads' of fun flirting with a fly Rodent, who wore a pancake dicer and a daisy Benjamin that, was too sweet for anything. Miss liaversny indignantly averrpd that no girl wiTi any style about her would stoop to slang- It sounded too thin, and smaeked of taffy.. Miss Offended said she couldn’t catch on to what was meant by a ‘pa a cake dicer’ of a hat. Hers were a Gainesborough and a Bernhardt, and she trimmed them with maroon plush plaiting and miniature sun-'floweis that were just too-too.

Miss Underwood smilingly remarked that she should blush to simper if she was ever caught using slang. She Dever would; oh, no! not this eve. some other eve. Good language always took ttie ca te —frosting and all. After several other members had fired away at the resolution, pro and con, Miss Paralyzer sent in the following broadside: “What kind of a gaff are you giving us, anyway? Take a reef in your upper jaw and cheese the racket! If any one takes me for < a last year’s crow’s nest she’ll g*t left. You can bet your .Saratoga wave I’m the kiDg pin of this here hen convention, and Igo in for slang. I’m the high mucky muck on slang slinging, and I’ll have a square deal if it takes four cold decks to get it. That’s the kind of a nait-pin I am! And when this question is put to vote, no redhaired sallow face, with a mole under her left eye and dollar store diamonds in her ears, can make me take water. I’ve cut my eye-teeth, I have, and no smart Aleck can bulldoze me. You hear mo howl?” ”Keno!” shrieked the agonized members in chorus, aud when Her Royal Nibbs put tne question to vote, the resolution was adopted by an overwhelming majority. The meeting then adjourned, and as they skipped the gutter ar d meandered homeward, the following song might have been heard, the tune of which vibrated painfully on the moonlight air: “I saw the boat go ’round the bend, Good-bye, my lover, good bye!”

DOING THE SOUTH JUSTICE. THE PLAIN SPOKEN MICHIGAN POLITICIAN WHO 18 AFRAID TO LOSE HIS GRlP[Detroit Free Press ] Jn Charleston I met a Michigander who has served two terms in the Mi cbigau Legislature, held a Federal office, of'soine prominence in the State, and been famous as a politician in the Republican party. After we had walked around for an hour I asked: “Now. then, what do you think of these people? Ysu have seen them with their coats off, and can judge them as they are.” “I tell yon I’m ashamed of myself!” wa° his reply- “When I think of how we had lied about them and their institutions I am asuamed to look tirem in the face.” “Have they treated you well?” “Splendidly.” “And they knew you were from the North?” “Yes,” “And that you were a strong Republican?” “Yes.” “And what do you think of the darky?” “D—n him, sir; d—n him!” was his hearty exclamation. “We wouldn’t stand the half from him that the South does, He is shiftless, thievish, and a general nuisance.— I’ve talked with a score of ’em, and they are as ignorant as our horses. They vote my ticket, but they can’t tell me why. They have no reason, no argument, no principle, and so little sense that I wonder how they get through the week ” “When you return home you’ll do the South justice?” “How?”

“Why, you’ll talk to your party members just as you have talked to me?” ! ‘N— o, I can’t dc that,” he answered. “If i should go back and tell ’em exactly how things are I’d—l’d—” “You’d lose your grip?” “Exactly.” “And to keep your grip you must continue to lie about, abuse and malign the people who have taken you to their din er tables and shown you every possible kindness and courtesy. You must continue to claim that they don’t give the black man a fair show, when you |know better. You must continue tojcall ’em Rebels, wlien you see every Federal law obeyed, and everybody’ contented and happy—Colonel, politics is a nasty business.” “Cuss politics,” he growled, as he left me at the corner. A decision that will be very important jn oases where crime has beep committed when the criminal was under the influence of strong drink, has just been rendered by the Court of Appeals, in New York, the highest tribunal in that State, Anjeffort had been made in the New York courts to set up drunkenness as an excuse for crime. Tne case reached the Court of Appeals, where it was decided that it could not be considered as an ex tenuating’circumstance; that the man that voluntarily becomes intoxicated is just as responsible before the law as if he were perfectly sober. Hereafter prisoners in the State of New York cannop-bope for the clemency of the law by pleading drunkenness as an excuse for the crime.

A St. Louis editor accidentally repelled in his morning mail proofsheets intended for the employes of a religious publication house, and after glan ing over them, rushed to the city editor yelling, “Why in the world didn’t you get a report of that big flood? Even that slow, old religious newspaper across the way is ahead of you. Send out your force for fall particulars—only one family saved. Interview the old man. His name is Noah.”—lndependent.

A Remedy fob Potato Bogs.— The Troy Press tells of a farmer who tried a new remedy with success. He procured a number of boards and placed them here and there among the potatoes. and on these boards were placed raw potatoes sliced- At noon on the first day es his experiment, he and hired men found every piece of potato covered with bugs. The men killed this crop and at night another crop was killed, though not so large, and in a week not a bug could bo seen, and in a week not n bug could oeseen, and his trouble with bugs after that was comparatively small. In the spring, be says, is the best time to attend to the bugs, as a spring bug. he understands, breeds from 200 to 300 during the- potato season. He thinks it would; be a good pla'n to dip the pieces of potato In Paris Green, as it would Bave the work of killing the bugs.

“Nothing,” said au impatient husband. “so reminds me of Balaam and his ass as two women stopping in a church aDd obstructing the way, to indulge in their everlasting talk.” — “But you forger, my dear,” retorted hia wife, meekly, “that it was the angel who stopped In the way, and Ba*mam and his ass who complained of it.” A 15 year old daughter of W. H. Stout, editor of the DeWiit, Saline county Times, died at Lincoln, Neb., from the burns received on the Fourth. Her clothing was set on fire by a cracker, and before assistance reached her she was horribly burned- She was a young lady of trreat promise, and highly esteemed by all who. knew her. The man who wrote “The StarSpangled Banner” is to have a SIO,OOO monument. "When living he would have taxen SSOO and called it squareNew Haven Register: “What’s that you’re playing?” said a New Haven man ta his daughter, who was pounding at the piano key board with more noise than skill. “It is Wagnerian, pa—that’s the music of thA future.” “Oh, it is, is it’ Let it be a Jong time in the future before I hear apy more of it. Play me ‘Coming Through the J Ry6.’” “Oh, pa, ain’t you horrid; al- ! ways thinking about something to I ! drink.” Honors are easy, in that' i family.

SUPREME JUDGESHIP. Hancock Democrat: Gu*-old and cs'eemed friend, Hon. Brown, of Ne* Castle, has at last consented that his name may be used for the Supreme Judgeship for the Eastern Distr’et. This is as it should" be; for Judge Brswn is a thorough lawyer, an excellent writer, a gentleman of discretion and probity, and Demoetatio from principle. Living in the strong hold of Republicanism, his advocacy of Democratic principles and meas ures is actuated solely bv patriotic motives, and without any hope of local reward. To our friends of tie Democratic press of Indiana, we can say in all truth and fairness that Judge Brown is one of the best and purest men in Eastern Indiana, and has every requisite qualification to make a fair, just, impartial and intels ligent Judge of the Supreme Court Living about the center of the E*st-> ern District, which has never been honored by a candidacy for this office by the Democracy, is a strong argument in favor of his nomination by our approaohing State Convention. * * * * Judge Brown is the man for the position, aud if the nomination is given him, a high order of legal ability will b complimented, and the best interest of the Democratic party greatly subserved.! *—: "* Go and see the new stock of Gro*ceries at A.

F >R CfiERR OF TRE SUPREME COURT. —The Shelby Democrat heists the name of B. S. Sutton as a candidate for Clerk of the Supreme Court. We have not bad the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with Mr. Sutton, but from reputation we heartily in dorse all that the Shelby Democrat says in its high encomiums. There will probably be several aspirants for the same position, and doubtless all will be good men- If Mr. Sutton should be the lucky man, we promise that Crawford county will give him a hearty support.

Place tne body in a sitting posture, the back against the wail, with the feet and legs resting upoD the sidewalk and extended In front of the body. Get and some strong essence of ginger. Pour the ice-wact r over the head, copiously, never mind the clothes. Then pour two or three table-spoonfuls of ginger in about a half a tumbler of water and make the patient swallow it quickly. Keep the head cool by using a little of the ice water, and in case there is not much of a glow upon the body give more ginger. If the directions are followed there will be no occasion for the services of an undertaker. Ginger is far the best to use, but when it cannot be had quickly two or three good drinks of brandy will answer. —Boston Herald.
