Monday Evening, April 10, 1876.
GRANT is sick. The people have been iu that condition for lo these many days.
COHN and hogs are not sacred above men. Let Landers De slaughtered. Prepare the victim.
FORNEY has been home several weeks, and has as yet vouchsafed not a word concerning that little $25,000 transactioH.
We had not expected to see the day when so royal a specimen of manhood as "Joe" Gilbert would be beaten in a Democratic Convention.
HOLMAN ia the coming man for the Democratic nomination for Governor. His nomination will be equivalent to an election in this Centennial year.
LET not the voter forget that county affairs are of vastly more importance than national affairs. A pimple on a fellow's own face hurts him more than a battalion of boils distributed on the bodies of other persons.
if Frank Landers is the Democratic candidate for Governor, the GAZETTE for one will bolt. Our style of Democracy is a disease in this section, and scratching is its only remedy. Try us and know our ways.
BELL, the detective bummer and dead beat, has some wonderfully lauditory letters from Grant and others, regarding his character and qualifications. Even Tom Murphy aud ex-Secretary Richardson Li».v© no more.
Now THAT he has secured the rejection of Dana's nomination bold Ben Butler might whisper in the President's ear that he has a nephew down in Mississippi who is out of a job. Adelbert Ames.is a good man. Indeed goodness is the strong quality iu his character. Lofty Ames should hit some shining mark.
THE amount of influence county officers in the performance of their duties have over national affairs i3 something immense. We are glad the convention ofSaturday was at so much pains to explain to them the exact nature of duties with which by the very nature of the case they can have nothing to do. A coroner uninstructed on the finance question could never peside at an inquest or old a post mortem. A county Treasuer's view3 on the manage* ment of national finances should be clearly defined and well understood at all hazards. His views on county finances are unimportant and merely a trivial incident.
SATURDAY'S issue of the GAZETTE contained a full account of the proceedings of the Democratic County Convention of that day, and our readers are therefore familiar with what was done on that occasion. T.he convention was numerously attended. This was a good sign and showed interest taken by the people in the conduct of public affairs. Our politics have gone amiss of late through apathy on the part of the people more than from any other cause. With watchfulness by the people will come careful attention to business on the part of the officials whom they may choose. As to the candidates, the people will have ample opportunity to judge of their merits during the long interval which must elapse before election day, and for the pres« ent discussion of them may be omit ted.
The opinions of a county convention on national questions are neither final nor infallible.

McXec.
St. Louis, Aprils.—The United States court room was densely packed this evening by spectators, maoy of them prominent citizens, to bear Judue Dillon's decision in the McKoe, Maguire and Avery cases. The court iirst took up some railroad cases, and after disposing of them, announced that in the Maguire case the five counts in tho indictment standing against the deJendant, and to which he pleaded guilty, charging him with failing to report to his superior officers certain knowledge which he possessed, would be merged in one, the offense charged in each being the same, and passed sentence of a fine of §5,000, the maximum penalty, and six months imprisonment in the county jail, the minimum penalty.
Judge Dillon then asked if W. O. Avery was present, and Judge Krum, his counsel, stated that he was not that he could not get here on account of having no means to pay ho expense, but if the court would defer judgment until next week, he thought his client would be able to borrow the money to come on. The court allowed until next Thursday for Avery to appear.
Wm. McKee was then called, and the motion for a new trial in this case was overruled. Judge Krum stated that a motion for arrest of judgment was on file, and the court adjourned, with the announcement that argument on it would be heard this afternoon.
Suicide.
Philadelphia, April, 9.—Uoo. W. Haves, a stock broker, committed suicide last night by hanging himself in his office on Third street.

The door was broken open, and the deceased was found hanging from an arch of the doorway, leading to his desk", he had evidently boen dead for several hours. On his desk a largo pistol was found, with a package of powder, a bag of shot and a box of caps. The pistol was heavily loaded, and two caps had been snapped on it, indicaliug that tho deceased bad tried tofclioot himself. Mr. Havis was formerly financial ediior of the Press, of this city. Ha was about 35 years of age, and a widower. Financial trouble is supposed to have been tho cause of the suicide. His business partner, JohnS. Rushton, committed suicide a yaar ago by shooting himself while in a bath tub.

Backing Out.
Memphis, Tenn., April 7.—The news by the signal service of the decline of tue river at Cario and St. Louis, of an inch to-day, caused rejoicing among those interested in planting iu the river bottom. The rise here was very slight, the river here this evening marking 35 leet on guage, or a foot above the flood of last August and within nine inchcs of the great flood of 1858. It is believed here that the check in the rise at this point is caused by the water finding a new outlet into the sunklands along St. Francis bottom. Thus far but little danger is reported, beyond that of retarding planting operations aud considerable loss of stock.
A Very Good Fire.
Baltimore, April 9.—A fire broke out this afternoon, supposed from combustion, in the wholesale drug store of W. H. Brown & Co., No. 25 Fourth and Sharpe streets, destroying the building and stock. The loss is iestimated at §100,00.), and on tho building $60,000. The damage to the adjoining buildings $25,000 Six or eight firemen were injuredbut none seriou9iy.

St. Louis, April 9.— F. G. Settle shot and killed Samuel Cowell at Patosia, on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern railway yesterday afternoon, then went home and shot himself, inflicting a mortal wound. Settle has been station agent at Patosia and had been removed at the instigation of Cowell, who was an engineer. This creatod very hard feelings between the two men, and was the cause of the tragedy.

London, April 8.—A telegram from St. Petersburg says tbht Russia recognizes the fitness of the title of the Empress of India, and will, immediately after the issue of Qneen Victoria's proclamation declaring the title, give official expression to this view at London.
A Brief Obituary.
Trenton, N. J., April 7,—Ex-Gover-nor Olden died to-day. ...
A Snake cn Irish Soil. From the Gold Hill News, March IS, Lawrence Kelly is a worthy son of the Emeram Isle, as well as an old Pacific Coast pioneer, and plenty of people in Gold Hill know him and are his friends. When Christopher James went on his matrimonial trip to Europe, last season, ileliy sent by him for handful or so of genuine Irish soil. When he returned in the fall, Christopher brought him a cigar box full of real Irish soil, taken from Cork. Once more did Kelly behold the land of his nativity, the soil of the "ould sod," and when he pulled off his boots and stood barefooted upon it, or sprinkled some of it in his bed aud slept on it, the scenes and remembrances of his boyhood days came floating o'er him, as it were, and he fancied that he could almost smell the sweet breezes wafted across the lakes of Killarney and the green bogs of Kildare, and hear the warbling of the little birds among the groves of Limerick and Tipperary. He treasured that soil like so much gold dust and felt rich iu the possession of it.
One day an idoa struck him. Kememberiug the well-known popular saying that since the days of good St. Patrick a snake can not live on Irish soil, he resolved to demonstrate that point in a very practical man* ber. He subsidized a Piute boy to procure him a snake, giving him $5. That little "Injin" had a bothersome job, for this is not a good couutry for snakes but he succeeded, and in the course of a day or two brought in a large "bull" snake, as big round as a. pick-handle with a head like a potato. Then he went and bought a bignecked demijohn for $2,50, and put his box of soil into it. Then lie dumped in the snake aud watched to see him die. But that snake didu'tdo so. On the contrary, he seemed rather to enjoy it, and rolled about loosely in it, like a kitten in a bed of catnip. He had the covering stripped off the demijohn so that he could watch the progress of that snake's dissolution, aud whenever he found him asleep, he said "There he goes the soil i9 getting the best of the rascal." But with a shake of the jug up would spring the snake livelier than ever.
Six weeks passed on, aud there was that aggravating snake looking se renely happy and content. In fact, Kelly began to imagine that the bright-eyed scoundrel was getting fat. What if he should have been eating that soil all this time! "The devil! Shall a dirty snake be allowed to luxuriously gorge himself on such precious food as that?" saj's Kelly. So he dumped the demijohn over on its side, and out crawled the snake. "Ah ha me boy," shouted Kelly, dancing around like a Modoc Indian, "it's there you are," and he spatted that snake across the jaws with a long-baudled shovel, laying him out neatly. "If Irish soil can't kill you an Irshmau can."
And now Kelley don't beleive that Irish soil will kill snakes any more than he thinks that Irish whisky would kill an Englishman. He has his mucn-prizecr son"""spreaTr—out in shallow dishes, and carefully he sprinkles it daily, in order to see what may possibly start up and grow spontaneously from it. Something is just now sprouting up, green and pretty. Kelly feels sure it's the sham rock. What if it should be snakeroot?
As to Small Feet.
The high born ladies of pride sind fashion in China have very small feet. Those who have the very smallest feet are exceedingly vain of them, and some who have hardly anything in the shape ot feet, natural style, are quite ccrried away witn self conceit. From the very birth of an aristocratic female infant, her leet are compressed by various appliances, and thus reduced in size. The flow of blood to them is impeded by compression of certain arteries, so that they do not reach their proper growth. It can easily be understood, on the Darwinian hypothesis, how the keeping up of such interference with the feet for generations will result in the formation of an almost footless type of femininity,through arrest of development in that portion of the body. There are Chinese ladies who find it difficult to walk on account of the smallness of their feet, and there are some among those of them whose feet were not properly attended to iu their ia fancy who will suffer years of agony, ia the process of distortion that they may get feet asj small as thsoe of their rivals. It is found, however, that no eflort begun after the early period of life can make up for the want of proper manipulation in the first montns of infancy. As for tne small-footed American ladies of Washington society, about some of whom so much has lately been said, we must observe,with due respect to them and for tho facts, that the feet of some of them, as compared with those which ma to be lound in high Chinese society, arc of elephantine proportions. If 'a small-footed Washington belle were to place her foot alongside'that of a real tip-top Chinese belle, we are sorry to say tliat even patriotic American observers would burst out into laushter at its size and splayness.—[New York Sun.
Twain's Tattle.
That inimitable tort, Mark Twaiu, made the following off-hand remark at a club supper in New York, recently I am delighted at being here where I am and as I am. I was told it was to be an informal affair, entirely so, but I have been in that trap belore. I remember once in Buffalo being pressed to go to the most informal kind of an informality. I skipped up in my store clothes and found every one present got up like stnd horses. (Laughter.) Then then they had the best of me. but on this occasion I think I rather have the advantage of you. But it was accidental. I have been lecturing to-day, and having once got inside a suit of clothes, and a good suit, I like to stay there and enjoy the sensation. If I wasn't married I suppose I should sleep in them. I should have been earlier with you and earlier away, but I had taken my wife to the theater, and as she, poor soul, lias the diptheria, I was under the necessit of seeing her safely to her rooms before I could fulfill my obligation to you, and when we come to be carried home—for I suppose you are all to be so conveyed—I should like to take my dose half sober at least. It will look better to the folks at home. I can't say anything funny, however much you may expect it. Fun is marketable, and it would not do to RO spilling it around wnere it can do no good. I think you will agree with me in this and accept my thanks for the pleasure of beiug here.
