All laws or parts of laws inconsistent with the provisions liercvf be and they are hereby repealed. Referred. At tho expiration of the morning hour Mr. Howe called up his resolution asking the president for information in regard to tha alleged defalcation of Judge Whittaker of Louisiana, and rnada his promised speeh. Mr. Howe said: "During the past year We haveseen here and everywhere throughout the country small but active squads of h11Ucal inquisitors busy with the work of assorting the republican party, gathering; into the hallowed garners all those who now avow titsmselves supporters of the president's policy, and pouring unquenchable lire upon all the rest. Poles have been set up at all the cross roads; flags Inscribed with the president's policy have been suspended from them, and sell-appointed inquisitors have lurked la convenient jungle toneteet who did and who did not uncover their heads under the Hag. It has happened to me to be olvertlsed quite leyond the pale of my own modesty as seeking as an opponent of the president's policy. To the doctors of the inquisition It seems no longer a question of moment whether one be a republican or a democrat. The absorbing question is. Does he support the president's policy, or does he not?" Sir, 1 have no wish to conceal any opinion of my mine in which i lie public wax luterestep to know, tie vertheles I have not hitherto answered this accusation. I did not like to plead guilty, for I hoped I was innocent, and 1 did not like to plead not guilty, for I feared I mitfht be truiltv. I had withheld no honest effort to elect Mr. Hayes. Itm,nstof necessity pain me to he found not in accord with his views, and it niut pain me still more to find he was not In accord with mine. My uncertainty arose, not Jrom the fa:t that I was doubtful of myown poll?y, but lieeause I was- not sure I understood bis. My own policy is a very 6imple one, and maybe brlelly stated. Towards the states of the son tli my policy has been Identical with tiie policv I nave held toward the states of the north. I demand only that every legally qualified elector in every state, south or north, uemocratlc or republican, black, or white, shall be permitted, undisturbed by force and unawed by fear, to vote at all elections and at the place prescribed by law, and nowhere else, just once and no more than once, and that every vote so cast shall be honestly counted, and that every person chosen by such votes to oiliee shall be Inducted into it. That is ray maces where the harmony of the administration require its jliey to le represented. I lielleve, as the president declared in his inaugural address, that, once commissioned, the officer should be secure in his 'enure as long as his personal character re- I mains untarnished and the performance of his duty satisfactory. Home things have liar pened tine' the president's inauguration not at all In harmony with the jolici's 1 have ' indicate!, lie has sele't"d lor his cahluet j one man who was not a republican, but a democrat, still the individual was so well j known to me, and I believed so implicitly in the moderation of his opinion, in the justness . of his sentiments and the Integrity of ills character that I could not have advised his selec- ' tion. I could not, and did not complain of it. He had selected one other, who, although not 1 a democrat, was yet not a republic in, who whs equa'ly at home with all parties and in all i places: By turns he had beeli everywliere, and had espoused and deserted every part v. He I spoke like an ora-le. and his facile feech could be fitted to vicissitudes of IKirties as readily as a double faced satin can lie turn id to hide accidents of society, ills critiques upon his political associates always give him popularity with his political opponents, and he resembled the pophels in never being without honor except where he hapelse, he has Uen constant to his trade, that of politics. He entered upon that lefore he was variableness or a shadow of turning. His first enterprise was to revolutionize the government under which he was born; that failed and he fled. He was for a short time a lawyer in Wisconsin. but without clients. He wasa minister at Madrid, but did not reconstruct the diplomacy of the world. He was a major ceneral, but perverse history refused to record his victories. He was a Dewpaper correspondent, and was unsuccessful. He was transpl -nted lntx Missouri, and the genuine republicans of that Hat tKre him into this senate. Tiiat elevation did not prove fatal to him, but his party died died, not In spite of him, but because of him and under blows which he inflicted. Having outraged one psrty, and not j et received absolution from the other, he denounced both as machines. Having failed as a dealer in legitimate politics, he turned his attention to the coatraband article. In 172 he helped to lead Horace Greeley and li. Gratz lirown to the liultimore market, and taught the democracy of that year that they should call nothing ci-mmnn or uncle m if it promised to beat Graut. For six years he traduced the republican party, probably throughout more states, with more rhetoric and in more language lhan any mm living. Upon that illustrious captain who, from the 4th of July. Si., to the 4tli of March, lh., led -the republican party, who alwavs led his party to victory, aud always lifted his country to renown, at whose appioaeh but recently the eastern continent stood up and uncovered, lie threw nioie mud than any dn-dge not worked by steam ever threw in the same time." After reviewing still further Secretary Schurz's career he took up the Packard case and the Louisiana election and said when the president was inaugurated W. n. l'acaard was governor of Louisiana: within sixty days after mat inauguration he ceased to be governor. When he disappeared the will of Louisiana was subverted and trampltd upon. Such an event is always a matter of sincere reirret to all who respect republican institutions. But very lew such events would bo required to render republican institutions that by word and thit hissing on this continent which for centuries they have been on the other. He then reviewed at length the Louisiana commission in a sarcastic tone, and said: "if It was their mission to dispone, of an actual governor, they did not consume time enough. Under the constitution of Louisiana four years are requlxeu for that purpose. I could not therefore see In all tiiat transpired in Louisiana the development of a new policy for the republican party or abandonment of an old policy. I saw only acquiescence in what seemed to le a disagreeable necessity, but I wa not prepared to see the act advertised a" one of the president's choice, which every republican as well as every democrat was bound to approve. It was therefore a matter of surprise and profound regret also that I beard the president declare. In his late annual message, the discontinuance of the uce cf the -army for the purpose of upholding local governments In two states of the union was no hss a constitutional duty and requirement under the circumstances exlstiti i at the time, than it wai a much needed measure for the restoration of local f-elf government and the promotion of national narmony. If that be a correct definition of the presidents southern policy I am no longer lu doubt as to whether I approve it or not. It is impossible that I should approve It now or ever. It Is a clear abandonment of one of the plainest and most solemn duties charged upon the president by the' constitution and the iaws cf the United States. When the president abandoned the government f Louisiana to dottiest le, violence, ho surrendered the constitution rights of a single stat, but when he advertised that he would never Interfere where the result of an election is disputed, he surrendered a national prerogative, v. til to ouriustlt' tion; he abj a red the consiitu ions! duty essential t' every state he proclaimed license to insurre ction; he not In. d ih minority in every state when defeated by billot to appeal to the btyonet, and he proclaimed : in advance that the

nation fthull be neutral in -the conflict. If Packard wa not elected governor of Louisiana, nothing can be more certain than that Have was not elwtud president of the United States. Without the electoral vote or liouislana the whole world knows thit Hayes had not vote In the electoral College necessary to constitute an election. If Louisiana did not vote for Packard the whole world knows that Louisiana did not vote for Hayes. Packard received nearly ZJM votes more than some of the Hayes electors. Under the constitution, the president had bnt one plain duty to discharge: that was to ascertain whether the constituted tribunal of Lotiitlana had declared Packard to be governor; If so, then to defend his authority Jo tJi extent of his ability when legally required so to do. If thev had not sodcclared tlien It weiually hit dutv not merely to have withheld all support of Packard's pretence, but to have given ill required supjort to the claim of Packard h rival. It was his duty to have done that, not merely on the2Uth of April, but to have done It on the 4th of March, Immediately upon his

Mumlnii the otlltee of nresident. aad if he round It hi constitutional duty to require Packard tosorrenUer hisomce.he shoala have also recognized tne duty of surrendering his own. 1 do not mean to intimate a doibt that President Hayes was entitled to the vote of Iouliunii. II is mv settled liellef that Loulsiano declared for him, but 1 certainly know that if Packard was not elected President Haves was not. If tle latter Is not a usurper, Nicholl is. 1 can see no josslble esc:ie 1mm the conclusion either that the president has usurped hi own office. rr that he has aided Governor Nicholls to usurp his." After a long discussion of the Louisiana care and the southern question generally, Mi. Howe continued: "Mr. President, let no man say I do injustice to the purposes of the ppevMenk. I am not discussing his purposes, but his acts. I understand Ilia, ho avows himself still to be a republican and a friend of equal citizenship. It is not for me to dispute him, but it is for me to sav that he has otteuded both republicanism and free citizenship as Samuel J. lllden never would have offended them. Perhaxs had Mr. TiMen been made president events would not have transpired in South Carolina and Louisiana as they have transpired. Mr. Hampton would have been governor In the farmer state, and Mr. Nlcholu In the latter. So far the offense would have been precisely the same, but that would have been an otfrjnse not against republican ism. but against republicans in those states. Mr. Tilden would have decided perhaps that Hampton ana .Nlcholis were chosen governors of those states, and that if so they ought to be recognized, and even if not bo, since he had Jurisdiction of the question he would havo acquiesced in Ills decision. Hut President Hayes never made such a dvclsion, and does not make it to-day. Mr. ' Tildcn would have excluded Packard and Chainlierlain localise he decided against ttaelr eleetion. President Hayes excluded them because their elee tion was disputed. The former would have given an erroneous judgment, and would then have seen it executed. Pn-sident Hayes has abandoned the judgment seat to rifle ciulw in these stab's; lelt them to make the decision which the constitution und courts command him to make: and, infinitely worse than that, has permitted a proclamation to Iw made in his name that when the rifle clubs choose to take the tield iu behalf of a ticket ll is not necessary for them to elect their ticket, but only to dispute the election of the other, and after all this prolonged effort at pacification, litis outKnrlng of concessions and good will, the angel of peace still refuses to dcsvend-tipon us. Day alter day the president sends the dove out over the angry Hoods, and night after I night the bird returns weary ana it eless. In these very days mat government wnicn rules Louisiana, which was born of presidential grace and not of (topuiar choice, has signalized its ingratitude by an act, not less insulting to the preident lhan atrocious in itself it has dared to accuse, try, and convict a minler of tie state board of canvassers of the crime of perjury in the election returns of Vernon parish .of l7i. Remember, sir, I do not- complain be cause AtKicroou was triea lor a political but of malice; not of personal, but of partisan malice. He was prosecuted by that same frll spirit of parly spite which prompted Georgia forlv years ago to offer fci.OOO for the privilege '""V- "A. I'.V " . " ' - " . ' : at the whipping of Sumner. Anderson stands couvMcd Hi the court commissioned by Governor Nicholls, who In turn stands practically eominisioued hy President Haves." Mr. Howe reviewed the action of the return ng hoard at lenglh, ridiculed the Idea that Anueison forged the returns, nd said Judge Whittaker, by the jcrace of Andrew Johnson, was formerlv assistant treiistirer.of the United States at New Orleans; that as such he was a dofaul'"r to the government in the sum of ruoretl.;a half a million dollars when he sent Anderson to prison: that Vhitaker hadlteen under in ",CV Vk r L iVi, nT. v hla,? the Hth ofApl last, jcat tw Nicholls tx)k the office which Packard ought to have dictment lor that heavy embezzlement, but had. the Indictment against Whlttakcr was not pressed, and he was permitted to send Anderson to the penitentiary, where he ought to le himself. The senator f poke in the following tone on the civil service reform: "An eminent statesman from Kentucky recently made a prllgrlmagc to Boston in the interest of civil service reform. There, In the sight of that great monument which marks the spot 'V llilculate valor died f truths, he dared io say 'the can tor Immortal se of reform In the hands of brave men will not bo put down or defeated by the scoffs-and derision of Us enemies.' I should like to ask this apostle to the Bostotilans who those enemies of reform are against whose derision he has to mate brave men. In spite of all the vociferous prate about a reform of civil service no man has formulated it, no man his defined it. I do not know what they mean by It. The president did issue an order forbidding those employed In the civil service from acting on political commissions or iolltical conventions, is that what is meant by the reform of the civil service? If m. the treMi dent ha already abandoned It, or I am n isinformed, or if he still believes that means ! reform, be is the only man in the United i States who docs believe It. That reform ! That Is ! tyranuy ; tyrauuy which no predecessor of his I ever attempted and no successor will venture ( to imitate. Once It was industriously adveri Used that public otTb'er should not bo rej moved during their otliclai t'-rms without cause. As I already remarked I believe lu that rule. I have myself' adhered to It,' but the president has tlarautiv violated it. That Hurelv can not be what is ment by re form of the civil service. Ijitterly It hHs been sug.estfcd that the great reform consisted in making a ppoint men ts to oilice regardless of the advice of xenators and representatives from the Mates, nnxl so smashing the machlue. In Koine conspicnous cases the very reverse has been done. What rule is upon this or upon any point touching appointments It is not given to Inn ii lie intelligence to know, but I have four remarks to make upon thLsl&bt suggestion. "1. Ail the presidents have teen, all the presidents roust be, and President Hayes Is guided by some advice, and that advice does come and will come irom one or the other of three sources. Lilheritwlll be supplied by those ' whom the several states have selected lor their representatives or .by thos who have not ieeti, tut aspire to be choeti as representatives, or it will come from the office brokers, who have no political aspirations, but do a chiefly cash business. 'i. Wuen any president will absolutely relieve the representatives from all resjioiisibility &t that multitude who wanVoflice and do not get it, he will shield them from that service which most Impairs their usefulness and imperils a continuance of their employments. "3. When any president will take upon himself the sole responsibility Irom all men whom he does, and all others whom he does not, appoint, he will not need to pledge himself against u t-tcond term. The best man ever born could not achieve a second U-nu under such a load. t. Whether the people will hive an lm proved civil sera ice when its agents are selected upon the advice of those not in congress depends upon whether the people send their best men to congress or keep them at home. "Mr. President, the republican party has achieved something in its time, something which needs not to be repented of. It battled for freedom lu the territojles against blavery; for the Union against disunion; for emancipation against bondage; for enfranchisement agint,t disfranchisement ; for equal rights of citizens against privileges of cas.e: for telgnot law agsinst dominition of the kukux and white league; for human progress against a stagnant or reactionary .conservatism. The conflict ha been fearful, but the triumph has lieen gained. This generation may have forgotten tils work, but history has recorded it, and the future will not fail to applaud it. 1 see its authority totters; totterspcrhaps, to ltsfall. With unruffled temper, I await the final judgment of the people. Foreseeing what numbers would seek admission to the Romish church, after the recession of Jms tl., a distinguished ladv of the court early Joined that corun.nnlon. Wnen asked why di did so, siie explained that stie disliked to travel in a crowd, and as die saw mi many were golirg to K ine she thought she won d precede them. I shall uot itnitste her wisdom, .prudent republican who think defeat 1 the last calamity winch can beta;l them, may do well to avoid It by taking rsiuge in the cauip of the enemy, but a for myself. I

Jropose to stay at borne, and da not much ear a crowd. I fear disgrace more U.an defeat and shall not consent to see our historic temples turned Into old junk shops, where .Pinchbeck virtue is sold by mock auctioneers. Bnt must political strife be oeipetual? Shall we never have pence? No, never while human opinion is free and Is not accordant; nevf-r until Justice is everywhere the supreme law; never until the lowest nnd blackest of (rod's children finds pursuit of happiness as free from legal obstruction as tbe highest mud whitest nnds it; never until the sweat of a man, however humble, as much concerns the state as the sweat of a dollar, no matter how precious the metal of which the dollar is coined. Four thousand years of history prove that peace upon other terms than these is a delusion and a snare.' Ia regard to that portion of Mr. Howe's speech wber he referred to the indictment against Judge Whittaker having been nolle prossed, Mr. Hoar said he desired to inqre of the senator (Howe) whether be had any information that Judge Whittaker was indicted for the defalcation charged eight years ago, tried and acquitted on the merits of the case, and the indictment nolle prossed a year ago, was for the same offense. Mr. Howe said it was due to truth to say that he had such information, but be had also been told that the defalcation actually existed, and be (Howe) hoped that the answer to his resolution would show how Whittaker vas acquitted on that trial. Mr. Hoar said: When the present administration came into power the attorney general received from the district attorney in New Orleans a list or old cases pending, and one against Whittaker was wiped oiT the docket, with a numner of others of no importance. The action was taken by the attorney general in the ordinary course of business without any understanding with the president. The remarks of Senator Howe would imply that the nolle pros of Whit taker's case bad something to do with political events in Louisiana. Mr. Howe said be would not be surprised if that should turn out to be a fact that would not overwhelm him with astonishment. At the conclusion of Mr. Howe's speech the senate went into executive session, and when the doors reopened adjourned.

Terrible Conflagration The Loss Will Amount to Over One Million Dollar PitiLADELriiu, March 23. Afire brokeout to-night on tbe third Jloor of the paint and drug warehouse of W. H. Wampole & Co., on Fourth street opposite Arch. There was a strong wind blowing, and the fire rapidly spread in all directions, soon becoming one Of the most disastrous conflagrations that ever visited this city. The tlames rapidly spread north to No. 125 North Fourth street, occupied by Lovegrove t Co , machinery; 127 by A. T. Zeising t Co., printers, T. 1'. A. S. N ."Smith, shoe manufacturers, and li by Christian Muller, wine house. Southward the lhmes reached No. 121, occupied by James Flynn, white lead and window glass; No. lit, C. H. Hoyal fc Co., morocco boot and shoe findings; the upper storiea by 11. P. A. Harris A: Co., ladies and children's shoes; No. 117 by Cahill . t McLaughlin; the upper stories by Colter Bros., shoe upper manufacturers; H. J. Foudy A: Co., eDgravere, and Charles Kaufman, map printer Several explosions occurred in the paint house of Wampole t Co., and a minute afterward the fron wall fell with a terrific crash, causing the fire to communicate to the buildings on the west side of Fourth street, tfrst catching the roof of number 120, occupied by A. Gentzsch. paper box manufactory; thence to 121, by UnttedStatts Whits Lead company; No. 122, uermaa American liottling company, and then north to No. 12M, occupied by John R. Funk's siloon; No. 130, Martin Point.; No. 132, James Iron, show cases. Ihese DuiIdinjM were soon enveloped in tlames, and in the meantime . tue root 01 111 ou iu east side of Fourth street fell, carrying in the roofs ot two buildings below. Several firemen in the latter build iug were seriously cut. but it is not known that any fatal "accident happened. The course of the fire then descended to Xo. 115 North Fourth street, occupied by W. H. Grove, show cases and Charles A. Duhring; Xo. 113 by K. Price Hunt, blank book manufacturer, and No. Ill by D. A. Ilurton, wall paper?; the third and "fourth floors by Charles llenier, looking glasses and picture frames, and tbe basement by Stephen!). Cole and W. 15. Mills, bricklayers and jobbers. There were several more explosions, and by the time the llames reached No. 115 all the iron fronts from Cherry street to that .number had fallen. Sparks were carried eastward, and first set on lire the houses on Cherry street, burning private dwellings Nos. 31s and 31: the saloon of Charles Lees, No. 310; the unoccupied building formerly known as the Golden Fleece hotel, Nos. 310 and 312, and the extensive hat factory of D. P. Cobbarly t Co., No. 308. These are nearly or quite all a total loss. Tbe flames spread to southwest corner of Third and Cherry ttreets, the upper stories of which are occupied by Podgenberger fc Co., paper box makers, and the hrst lloor by the large wholesale grocery of Kirkbotte it Cerwind, spreading further to the east. About, the same time sparks set Are lo root of the stor.e of II. S. Steinberger, dealer in feathers, No. 115 North-Second, and spread to No. 113, occupied by Thomas Dall, stoves, heaters and ranges; No. 117, by II. II. Hurl but, lamps, and Nos. 119, 121 and 123, four story stone fronts, by Cooper, Hall tfc Co., furniture manufacturers. The Camden N. J., fire department arrived and gave all the assistance possiDle. The St. Elmo hotel was on fire from sparks in the rear portion, but beyond . causing a panic amougst " the boarders, bat little damage was done. At midnight the fire is still burning furiously and continually breaking out in fresh places, so that no estimate of the probable loss can be made, though it is not expected to be less than $1,000,000. " The fire is under control. TELEGRAPHIC NtTJIMARY. Mojcday, March 23. Two hundred refugees are dying at Constantinople daily. - The Home Savings bank of Boston has resumed business. Subscriptions to the four per cent, loan to-day amounted to $175,000. The foreclosure sale of the Erie railway has been postponed for 30 days. Sixty-three bodies ot victims of tbe Huron disaster arrived at Norfolk, Virginia, to-day. Tbe Hon. Thomas Johnson, ex-chief justice of the eupreme court of Arkansas, died today. A liussian newspaper of some note says. "There is but little probability that the congress will meet" The demand upon . the treasury for silver dollars is now very ligbfr, less than $ 100 being paid out to day. Wm. Howes, of London, has challenged 0'lx;sry to a pedestrian match for tbe champion belt and $2,500. Tbe house poet office committee examined but one witness to day with regard to crookedness in the mail contracts. Two men were arrested at New York today charged with the robbery of the cashier of the Planet mills, at Brooklyn, on Saturday. George M. Weiman, of Columbus, 0., was to-night shot and instantly killed by his father, who soon afterward committed suicide. . The consular and diplomatic appropriation bill was reported to the senate to day with numerous important amendments. The effect of these amendments, it is generally Seated, is to restore the salaries of all diplomatic and consular offices from the reduced

amounts proposed in many cases by the house to the amount provided by the existing law. . A dispatch from St. Petersburg says General Ignateiff has gone to Vienna because eorae anxiety is felt about the attitude of Austria, The funeral of the late Hoc. John Allison, register of the treasury, took place to-day at Beaver, Pennsylvania. There was a large attendance. If England persists in her refnsal to participate in the congre.ts, it will cause tbe abandonment of that tribunal. If England refuses to take part, France and Italy will follow. John T. Moore was assaulted in New York to-day by one Georee Many, and robbed of $T5,0t 0 worth of Missouri and Pacific railroad bonds. Tbe thief was afterward arrested and the bonds recovered. Secretary Schurz. who has been complaining for several days, was this afternoon suddenly taken ill with severe pains in his breast He is in an improved condition tonight. There is no immediate danger. Congressman Cole, of St. Louis, to-day made n lengthy argurcnt before the hor.se committee on coinage, weights and measures, in behalf of the establishment of a branch United States mint in that city. The house committee on appropriations to-day agreed to report the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill, without any material changes in its provisions as prepared and submitted by the subcommitte. Tbe publication of the terms of peace has catsed universal ' dissatisfaction in Servia. The army will reoucupy all positions it conquered Irom Turk sy, and hold them until congress decides as to the justice of Hervia's claims. Owing to the death of Mr. Allison, there will be some delay in issuing tbe silver certificates, as a new register of the treasury must be first appointed, the signature of such officer beirg required on the certificates. The full text of the treaty of San Stefano has renewed the strong nnti liussian feeling in Vienna. There is less confidence felt in the ethcacy of the congress since its publication. Count Andrassy will demand a revision of the entire treaty. He will decline to do so in connection with England, because their interest is not identical.

110R.SC BEEF IX PARIS. Its Popularity and Rate of Consnmptin. Thchest meat is sold for 2." centimes (five cents) a pound, writes a Paris correspondent. Good beef is sold less than 10 cents. One restaurauteur had a slaughter house ad two shops where he retailed meat in different E arts of Paris. He employed IS men in bis usiness. lie had sent "circulars all over France, calling the attention of farmers to his business, and inviting offers cf stock. In this way he received offers from the country continually, but be seemed to buy principally at auction sales of condemned artillery and cavalry, omnibus and cab horses. He received more or less from accidents, but I should judea comparatively small number. He also bought at the horse market. All kinds of horses are taken stallions, mares and gelding-?. The omnibus horses of Paris are nearly all pray 8tal lions. Black horses are the bestj ana give the tenderest meat. White horses are not allowed' to be killed by the government, being universally diseased. All have, pneumonia. This latter is a very interesting fact, which has probably received full coniirmation from this train, and which, pardon suggested, gives force as my comto tbe old proverb, "As poor as an old white hoise." i White i3 not always a symbol of j purity, it seenin. A veterinary surI geon appointed by government exim- ' ines each borse, and, if fit to kill. brands it with his mark. I asked if a bad horse could ever pass his hands and "receive the V (Vide.) He replied that it was not profitable to kill poor horses; they could not sell the meat as well. But how is all this profifahle? How can 3011 kill your valuable, sound horses? The real object must be "to make money, you know, as you Yankees dp." (Questions of social science, probably, do not cause men in this business very much uneasiness. The prices paid range from ."0 francs to 113 a head never more than the last sum. From $0 to $23! He bought GO horses at a time, at a government auction, for $G to $10 apiece. A Horse that Wasn't Denrt. lElienville Journal. A curious rase of suspended animation occurred in Pewittville the other day. A number of teams were drawing bark to the tannery, when suddenly one of the horses in tbe leading team fell apparently stone dead. Tha road was narrow, and iu order to let the other team pass a rope waj fastened to the neck of the dead horse, and he was dragged nearly a quarter of a mile and left by the roadside. That evening a collection was taken up by the men engaged about the tannery for the purpose of buying another horee for the unfortunate teamster, and hearty sympathy and generosity were shown toward the owner of the dead borse. The next morning when the men went to the stables to feed their teams, the dead horse was found quietly, standing in the barn yard. He was apparently quile well, with the exception that large patcLes of skin were worn'oiT his side in dragging him along the road. . Union City Plain Dealer: A civil engineer has been laying olf a route through our city the past week for the Lake Erie and Louisville railroad. The bed for this road was constructed mauy years ago, and hm lain ever since in statu quo for the lack of energy or funds to carry it through to completion. ' We publish the announcements in our adyertising columns for pay, and seldom trouble ourselves to inquire as to the qualities or merits of the wares advertised, further than to assure ourselves that they are legitimate and respectable. Cut when an article performs miracles in our midst, transtorming the old to young, in appearance at lea.st, we can not pass it by unnoticed. We know of people who, years ago, were gray headed and who now wear dark and glossy hair. How is this?
