MORE aid is needed for the Michigan and Wisconsin sufferers."

TUB Philadelphia "Press" says the Democracy, or, to speak more accurately, the Democratic party, now is simply "organized ignorance."

IT IS reported that Preaident GRANT'S proclamation of martjal law in the Kuklux districts of South Carolina is al ready making the brotherhood of assassins tremble. The cowardly cutthroats re spect nothing but superior force, and it was a mistaken mercy to parley with them so long.

TIIERE having been a tie on the vote for Representatives in Noble county, Ohio, the case was settled by lot, according to law. D. P. SPRIGGS, the Democratic candidated, was the lucky man. This gives the Democrats forty-eight members of the House, and the Republicans have fifty-seven.

FROM the Lafayette "Courier" we learn that ISAAC BOWI.US, a prominent citizen of Warren county—a member of SHIDLER, YEAGY & Co., millers, at Williamsport, was killed at that place last Wednesday afternnoon, by a rtina way team belonging to JOHN WAGNEP. He was seated in his carriage when the runaway team collided with such force as to throw him out. His injuries resulted in death in about four hours.

A corEs'rrORARY has made the happy discoverey that, if the Prince of Wales can do nothing else, he can ride. In the late military manoeuvres he stumbled upon the wrong party and was declared a prisoner. The prince failed to see it, and turning his horse's head, led them such a chase over hill and valley, fence and ntreain, as never was run since the days of rollicking DICK TL'RPIN. They could not catch him, and did not dare to follow. An Englishman's horsemanship is his religion, but it is a general surprise to find Wales possessed of it.

Cold Water Flapdoodle. One hundred and seventy well-meaning but unsophisticated citizens met in the Senate Chamber of the State House in tliir city yesterday, and affixed their signal ures to the following pledge: "We hereby pledge ourselves to vote for such candidates for office as are pub liclv pledged to the passage and enforce ment of a strict prohibitory liquor law, and when any convention refuses to adopt a platform in spirit with the above pledge, we will assist at the calling of a proper convention and the nomination of honest Temperance men for office. This pledge to be binding for life."

We honor the motives of these men, while al the same time we regret their la mentable inability to learn wisdom from by-gono follies. Experience has demon strated the fact that a vital temperance party can not be organized in the present state of moral development. The world is not yet ripe for a temperance party The experiment has been tried time and again, and lias always proved a dismal failure. A large proportion of the temperance men of the United State* do not believe in probhibitory legislation,while of those who do, the greater part of them think that the interests of the political party to which they may happen to belong are paramount to those of the proposed Temperance party. A recent attempt to or ganize a Temperance party in Pennsyl vania has met with the usual fate of such movement. Out of six hundred thousand voters seventeen hundred came boldly up to the scratch, and voted the Temperance ticket. These one hundred and seven reformers have bound themselves to a life-long exhibition of folly. To all practical purposes they are selfdisfranchised.—Ind. Journal.

An Evening with Miss Kellogg. Correspondence New York Mail.] Have you ever heard Miss Kellogg iin pro vise, compose?

If you have then you will sympathize in my desire to let all her friends and admirers know of the wonderful girl and and if not, I am sure you, as one of them, will read with interest my feeble attempt to describe what is almost indescribable —music and that in its primitive form, as it issues from the soul in all the freshness of its originality.

Entering the dimly lighted drawingroom, Mis3 Kellogg seats herself before the soft-toned Weber piano, strikes a few chords, and dashes into waltzes and gal lops which no one ever heard before, and a few which, unfortunately, will never be heard again. For no sooner do the greater part of these musical fancies give themselves utterance on the piano than they vanish forever from the ears of her enchanted listeners. Gradually from these gay, glad airs, she glides into soft minor chords, and changing still, the soft wail of most exquisite harmonies delights our ears, and in spite of all our ef forts the tears start from our eyes, and we feel the unuterable something of real, true music subdue our spirits and influence our souls. Then suddenly that glo rious voice take* up the air, and the piano glides into a soft, harmonious accompani ment, and we feel afraid to speak lest the the spell be broken and our glimps of heaven destroyed. Slowly the air dies away until all is silencc. Then quietly she speaks.

Listen, I am going to compose an opera." The overture does not come first. No, the different airs follow each other as the soul dictates, and we have no need to ask, Is this soprano solo? Is this the chorus?" No, instantly we can define each air, and anon we hear the soft phrases of love of these imaginary beings. Passionate long swelling notes and chords tell truthfully their story the misunderstanding, the reconciliation, inevitable accompaniment to a love storv, need no interpreter in that full-toned, im passioned voice The introduction of an evil influence that we know will part the happy maiden from her lover is announc ed by wailing, almost screeching, minor chords and the soft voice of inteicession subduing the mistrust and re-establishing the lost faith, is intuitively recognized bv those who sit listening with wrapt attention.

This is the gift, the gift of improvisa tion and composition of which I have spoken. If Mis3 Kellogg would only yield to the entreaties of her friends, and to some lovely English ballad add the charm of some of her songs without words" the enthusiasm of her concert audiences would knew no bounds, and, added to her crown of laurels as a songstress, would be the leaves of composition and adaptation. C.

THE"Battleof Gettysbu%" is certainly a much saved picture. Already three separate and distinct individuals claim the honer of having rescued this great wo-k of art from an untimely end in the great fire.

THOSE who best know the man say that Brigham Young knows so well when to yield and when to oppose, that his extrication from his difficulties with the Unied States jndiciarv is certain.

A BALLOON STORY Why?

Under all the circumstances, we are disposed to regard this as one of the most remarkable aerial adventures of the age, as well as one of the most providential escapes from death.

Miss LULIE A. MONROE, the pet daughter of the wretched heditor" of this paper, becoming disgusted with the troop of gentlemanly roving and unstable printers whom we have employed during the past few months, swapping one for another every few days or weeks, cleared the last one out last week ar.d determined to do all tho work herself. Every type in this issue was set by her nimble fingers, in eluding the new adveriisements, since our last issue, and she has three columns over for next week. And besides all this she did a big washing, read about fifty newspapers, and took two day's recreation at the Mitchell Fair. And this active and spunky little printeress" declares her intention to set the whole paper herself hereafter. And hasn't the girl that did all this a right to vote? We fear that the Times" will be converted to woman suffrage. Women have more sense than men, anyhow. They are braver than men. They are vastly more moral and benevolent. And why shouldn't they vote if they want to? Deuced if we can tell.—"Seymour Times.

And what was'the facetious editor doing all this time?—Ind. Journal. He was probably meditating on thi3 new application of "the Monroe doctrine."

Fatal Turkish Bath.

The death of Miss Lillie Peckham, the eloquent young advocate of woman suf frage, occured in Milwaukee, her native place, on Wednesday of last week, and was caused by the effects of a Turkish bath. She had taken the bath three weeks before, and from the prostration then produced, she Was confined to her bed until death came. While in Toledo Miss Peckham was editorially connected with the "Index," and her "productions were characterized by bright imagery, ardor of spirit, penetration of thought and graceful diction by which she had acquired her reputation as a lecturer. During the past season she had been chosen to the pastorate of a Unitarian Society in Iowa.

APPALLED, demoralized, and demented at the sentence of the people in the late election, the Democratic party quivers wi!h the convulsive throes of dissolution, and the Pittsburg "Post," in its exextremity, calls upon Colonel Thomas A. Scott for aid. This is a strong name, and worth praying to, but we fear the Democratic partv is past the power of prayer or work. Colonel Scott raised the stock of the Union Pacific from eleven per cent, to forty, but the "Post" calls for a far more herculean labor. It i* of no avail. What the Democratic party wants is not a candidate but a principle.—Phil. Piw.

Reddy, the Newsboy's, Remarkable sentiment of the extraordinary majority

Ascension from Oakland—The Greatest Aerial Adventure of the Age—Miraculous Escape of a Young Aeronaut

From the San Francisco Morning Call The readers of "The Call" will recollect the frightful mishaps which attended a couple of unfortunate men who were recently carried up by a balloon in Indiana.

This case brings fresh to memory the most remarkable balloon adventure which ever came under our notice. We allude to the ascent made by "Reddy, the newsboy," at Oakland, in 1853. It was customary, in those days, to have some excitement every Sunday across the bay. Thither would flock great numbers of Franciscans, to see the fun, whatever it might be. Sometimes it was a bullfight—at others, a bull-and-bear fight and again a balloon ascension. This time the latter amusement was the attraction go

A Professor Wilson had advertised to "go up" at Oakland, and long before the hour for starting, an immense concourse of people had assembled to witness the performance. Great difficulty was experienced in inflating the aerial monster, which rolled from side to side like a huge whale. At the appointed time, however, in stepped the Professor, and the fastenings were cast loose—but the balloon didn't go. The ballast was thrown out to "lighten ship." Still no go. It stubbornly refused to rise. Then the car was taken off, and a plain board made fast to the ropes. The Professor seated himself on this, with no better luck. At this stage of the proceedings some one called out for a boy to go up. "Five dollars for any boy that will go up in the balloon!" was shouted by some reckless individuals, and several youngsters were importuned to accept the offer.

In a few minutes one was found in the person of "Reddy," a newspaper or orange peddler, who was unluckily on the ground. As soon as he announced his willingness to make the fool-hardy attempt no time was given for "sober second thought." Instantly he was rushed to the spot and seated on one end of the board. The wind, which had strengthened by this time, now caught to the balloon and it began slowly to ascend. When about 200 feet from the ground the boy was observed to give a sudden jerk at the valve rope, which evidently broke, as one end fell over and trailed down. What a horrible situation for an inexperienced youth, who probably had never seen a balloon before! Upward, upward, steadily upward, floating out across the bright waters of the bay in the direction of Sacramento. Gradually the huge air-ship and the young aeronaut "grew small by degrees and beautifully less" until they were but a mere speck on the horizon, soon to be lost entirely to the naked eye.

There were many heavy hearts among the returned excursionists that day, for the boy had been a favorite, and it was terrible to think of him sailing helplessly through the clouds, at the mercy of the winds of heaven, with the prospect of being dashed to peices on the earth below But, strange to say, no such fate was in store for the adventurous "Reddy." The balloon, after crossing the Straits near Benicia, descended a short distance from the little town of Martinez, Contra Costa county. "Reddy" jumped off as soon as it was close to the ground and then, freed from his weight, up it went again. Parties noticed the balloon pass over Sacramento City, but after that it was never heard of.

Tho youthful balloonist was for a time quite a hero on returning to the city. Extras were issued giving an account of his adventure, from the sale of which he made considerable money, as high as five dollars being given for a single copy. But this was not enough. The people were not satisfied. They wanted to look at him and hear the story from his own lips. So the young news vender gave an exhibition at one of the theaters. The house was crowded, and when he appeared great enthusiasm prevailed. His narrative, in brief, was that he became alarmed when the valve-rope broke, but did not give up all hope. While crossing the Bay, he resolved on making a desperate effort for life. Taking his pocket-knife in his teeth, he climbed the ropes up to the balloon, and managed to cut it in several places. This, however, did not appear to do any good, as it continued to sail as before. Finally, he said, it seemed to him that two opposing currents of air caught the balloon and pressed the gas out of it. The operation, fortunate ly for the lad, was a gradual one, else the rapid and violent descent would have been fatal to him. As it was, he got off with only his hands cut by the cord's in his perilous and daring ascent to puncture the balloon, and a few slight bruises received in jumping off when it was once more near to Mother Earth.

.Surprise seems to be the universal sen-

thrown by the people in our late 'elec tion. The Democrats feel it because they did not look for defeat at all. The Republican? feel it because they did not look for such a victory. Everybody is trying to find oat the secret. But does it not lie upon the surface? Is it not plain to all eyes? The Democratic party is dead by its own hand—very dead. It perishes from a combination of diseases any one of which would have been sufficient to finish it.

The'' new departure" v,a a fatal stab. The New York riots of the 12th of July were another.

The Tammany Hall frauds another. The Democratic Ku Klux another. Hostility to the amendments of the Constiution another.

How can any organization expect to live pierced by as many wounds, each self-inflicted? So the Democracy passes off, not in fair conflict with a fair foe. It expires by suicide. Its leaders need no longer be troubled about the secret of its dissolution. They know why.—Phil. Pre.as.

THE saying that corporations have no souls does not hold good as to the railroads in a time of such a calamity as the Chicago fire. The railroads have placed all their resources at the disposal of relief committees, and have carried free all supplies and all the multitude that has been compelled to depart from Chicago, and have spared no expense to give relief trains expedition. The public in general have no idea of the amount of this free transportation that has been done. Of all the generosity that hasbeea elicited by this calamity, that of the railroad companies deserve to stand in the front rank.—Cincinnati Gazette.
