The Kcw York Erenina Ponl has a faculty of speaking plainly and rery pointedly. It ut tercd tlie following brief paragraph a few days before tho election which we commend to the at tention of "our readers "If the effort of Tues day next should fail, New York city would bare more reason for mourning and desponden cy than Chicago has to-day. Burning stress nay be rebuilt, scattered trade may be gathered again, but the ruins of character and of honor in a community which deliberately accepts thieves for its rulers and its representatives are without bops of restoration." It has turned nut thnt the monster petition of iwec'y-lve hundred women nf Utah, which late ly reached Washington, did not implore the GorernmcDt'to strike down. 'the Inst rclio of bar barism, but just the contrary. Their pruyer is that the proceedings against Mormons be stayed. It seems they prefer having a fraction of husband than none at all. They do nut relish the idea of standing in the relation of mistresses to Ihoir much-married husbands, nor do they de. aire to have their children converted into has lards by legal process. In short they want to rest the case. Death of Two Noble Men. Within the past ten days America has lost two of her noblemen Gen. Robekt Anderson an4 TnoMAs Ewino. The former died at Nice Italy, w'kro. he had been for some time with the view of regaining bis health In that fenial climate. The latter passed away at his boms in Lancaster, Ohio. Gen. Anderson was born in Kentucky, in ISMS', graduated at West Point in 1625, served in tlie Illack Hawk war, Indian wars in Flwida, in the wars with Mciicn and was in com..od at Sutnptor when the Slaveholders' Rwotllion broke out. lion. Tuou as Ewino was born in Yirgiuia in 1780, and re aided in Ohio since 17U2, In 1810 he was ad milted to the bar and soon became distinguished as a lawyer. In 1831 he was elected by the Whigs to the Cuited Slates- Senate, and aerved a full farm. In 1810, President Uabkuon appointed him Secretary of the Treasury, and he untie tained by President Tiler. In 1S4S, President Tatlob appointed him Secretary-of the Interior. a Cabioet ffico just created.'. In 1861 bore tired from political life anddero'ed himself to hi profession. lie was a ripe scholar, an elo quent orator and a statesman. In 1851 he wa a delegate to the I'eawCoogress," but took oe jjart in its proceedings. Coal Famine. The cities and town on 1 1 1 1 Ohio Rircr wh! depend on receipts from Pittsburg for their sup plies of coil.aro threatened with a famine. Four weeks sgo there was but fourteen inches of wa ter in the Ohio on the shoals four-miles above Cincinnati, and for some time-previous, and since not even flat boats could descend the river. Ca Is advancing in price at a rate that threatens make the coming winter a very uncomfortable one for the poorer classes who are unable to pay famine prioes. A write-in the Wh eeling IntttVgtncer say "the lowest point ever reached by the drought the rlrer, it is believed, wag in tha year 1833,' the sain s war mentioned by our Tontogany cor respondent last week," when it was about a foo, lower than tSia summer 1871." The si me writer continues: "The drought of that summ continued through the fall". In November a lit tie ri came in the river, and our people started nut with their fl it boats loaded with produce, po (aloes, o and were all caught In a seven freeze, which closed up the river, stopped navi gatiun and destroyed the potatoes. In this fall potatoes wero twenty-five cents per bushel be soring, or after this freeze, they roso to ouo dollar per bushel." Reports from the Mississippi state that the 'father of rirers' is so destitute of that material from which rivers are made, that steamboat, bars to keep whistling to keep the cows oat of the channel, and that captains are baring ce catchers put on the boats. The French not Satisfied. It appears that the French people are not yet satisfied with the amount of blood shed and misery and desolation which has resulted from their warlike propensities. Although the smoke of their burning lilies and homesteads, were lu as yesterday ascending and the putrifying bod lea of tens of thousands or tier sons are yet poisoning her atmosphere and promises fruitful barrest to pestilence, yet this sanguinary ptople still thirst for military display and its sailed glory. One of our exchanges refers to Ih gutter as follows t The French evidently do sot intend to remain long a second-rate militarr power. The system ut army re-orgnnizalion adopted by tlie govern ment, if faiily carrii-d out, will give France with, in three yeais an ell'eciire furee of more thun million men, aud the improved plan of organiza tion and discipline must make this one nf the fin est armies in Europe, lliu to establish sueh nu army will be a rery costly undertaking, ami with money already scarce, aud $700, 000, 000 yet due to Ue rmnny, the luxation which all this prepar ation for new wais before the old one is paid for sauet entail, may produce an upriting of lheiiople which will serve to unseat the eunuiolona foveru'ueut undertaking it all. There seems to be a rry great rererrncoon the part of the weple for the Thiers administration, and some tmtof the facliuna opposing it may vet overthrow it before all these fine schemes can be curried ul. The November Elections—Glory Enough for One Day. The sere ral Htato e'ectlons w hich came off on iiendity last, may well be considered as mnaj decisive In their endorsement-first, of the Repub lican party and lis administration of the govern ment, ind secondly, In their condemnation ofdla. honesty and corruption. This last feature of the election has been strikingly manifest In the city of New York, where good citizens of each party hare united In ronilng a set of offit-ial Ihieres snd their tools whose acts of Infamous and tin ushiog corruption, Is without precedent in the history nf any civilised country. That this Test er rip, putrifying ma as-of politi cal and nf official corruption should have origin, aied and reveled in the wantonness of destruc tion, In Ilia very heart of our metropolitan city seams incredible, and yet such Is the fact. How is this condition of ufT.irs been brought about? imply by the great masa of Intelligent citizens failing to discharge their duties nt tha primary convenll'ins and si the ballot bti. They have followed the pursuits of money making, and have allowed a aetof cut throat thieves to take hold of their city govornmout aud control its taws and use its funds for their own personal ben. til. lu this manner tho tai payors hare been robbod of millions of moner. Had as these matters are, H is indeed foi lu nate that they are no worse. It Is indeud a mat ter nf satisfaction to know that public sonttinent of the right kind is now operating. Tho thiuves and their tools hare been met. at the ballot box with a signal and timely rebuke, and it remains only for Justice to finish what the people have began.

Official Stealing in Germany. Tho tfvirth nmi Jl .me ears Clearly the Germans have no genius for stealing. The summing rp of financial affairs in I'm si a for the past year shows a total ofninetcen thousand d.d lars lost by oflicial peculations, and as the offen ders a.rn all in prison, serving nut rather long terms, it is Imped that next year's showing will be even better than this, particularly ns there is now no war to demoralize the public servants IlappT Prusia I Let tho I'nited St-rti-s faithfully administer ber State laws as she is now doing the f edora law, and she may yet rival Prusia in that stand ard of happiness which proceeds from oflicial hones ty, National Arbitration.

"niTXET IIHOAD AXS." HENRY CHANCt. The above named gentleman, a ho now resides In Fremont cnnimonced his caroer as a temper ance lecturer In tho Hlack Swamp. 1 very well remember his first efforts. He woro very curly, shaggy, long locks and was not very particular about the cut nf his coat. There was an inimit able waggishncss about his tnannor. The boys, and some of them pretty old st that, uso to feel the symptoms of a 'shake' in the sides and epc rienoe groat difficulty in the effort to keep the muscles of the face In order, even when they saw him at a dlstanrtv Hut In his lectures hs man aged to keep his hoarers pretty well slirred up. Those who Were seated with til tn In the stand would often feel the force of his muscular logic. He. would in (on go through all manner of mo tions, hitting right and left. On one occasion In the eftort to attract the attention of the people, he turned around and in a playful war ran his flagors through the hair or a tlislingnlslien uut Tory sober faced dlvlno. Hut, to his cnnslerna" lion, his fingers b.'came cnlanglod In the Rever end gentleman' wig so that ha pulled II ohT en- lire and exposed a bald head. This) sleight nf hand movement rxcited much laughter, and r.road axo" not having anticipated such a result, fell considerably embarrassed. Rut he soon regained his wonted seifpnsseasion, and turning towards lliu bald-headed notable, he said in his peculiar inimitable droll way, "my dear sir, I beg your pardon, Pdid not know that your skull-cap was loose." Thecffcct was electrical. The whole audience broke out into roars of laughter. There were some, howover, who attended his lectures, who laughed out of the other aide of their mouth. While he ever spared the drunkard, ho hewed the drunkard linker most unmercifully. It was his custom tn hire whiskey Sellers to tnko a scat on the stand. If they could stand the edge of his n.e to theond of the lecture without wincing ho paid them promptly. Uut his blows often started blood. The proprietors orjsalooiis and rum boles threw at him "eggs that had lust their health," and sometimes threatened to shoot him. Once or twice he waa pretty roughly handled, but for tho most pari escaped nil harm. Soma thought thnt although his le:turi'S wero thronged, they were too olownish to bo useful Rut there was "method in his madness" which an attentire hearer could not fail tn see. His questions were well put, and his illustrations were all to the point. Many of his hearers well remember his story of "How Betsy and I Killed; the Hear when Pal saw the boar coming Into the door of his hut, lit forgot lha buby m the cradlo and climbed up for dear life upon one of the beams. Hut l!ot.-y bi' i.-d the axe and soon slaughtered old bruin. While the conflict was going on, Pa looked down from his safe retreat and cried nut In high glee, Hire it to him BelFy. give it him?" Pret'y siin after the light was over, Pat m it one of his neighbors and in a consequen tial nir, as If he had dona a great ttliiug, said, Mid you hear limy P.utsr and killed tho bosr Those only could feel the full force of the cut who lived in the early days of.the temperance ro form, when ministers, congressmen and justices of the peace Reeking popnlniiiy, stood aha. f and hid themselves till they saw the people shouting temperance, nn 1 then joined' i n the huzzas and cried out to the lop of their voices, "Did you luar how llutsy ami kilbd the bear T To this class of men "Broad axe" showed no mercy, kn( bringing down his heavy blade directly upon t'teir heads did somo rough .hew ing. In those diys mm, mi t sum ji im s ivoin -n not often how ever -bo it ever said to her credit drank iutox icating liq uors because they rerily thought "it did both soul and body goad," To convince the people that they were taking poison, took a long tune. Tins required closo, accurate work, llroad axo comprehended tlie situation, and brought ttis axr closo to the .line. He proved that rum an! whisky an I the like, was the "Devil's dye stuff." "It I. umed ihe drunkard's stomach, col ored his nose, put snakes in ids boots, fuddled his brains, stole hi purse, clothed him with nigs, made him dance tlie delirium tremens to', the djvil's music, threw him into the ditch, the wife of his bosom and bis little ones wero afraid him he stole the food out i f their mouths rum, whipped abused aud murdered them," short he would say, when the devil wants any body to do a wicked or mean thing, he gives them a dose of his dye stutf. Aud then after has tormented s poor fellow snd ltd him around by the nose all his life time, he sends him to the drunkard's grave and the drunkard's hell. After a course of lectures in which be con vinced his hearers thst they were really drink ing this admixture of the devil's getting up, gave notice that he would burn up what the gro cers hadon hand. Iu the evening lie mounted the cart on which the whisky barrel had been brought near the church, aa I gave orders to it on fire. As the Haines ..rose he pointed with his finger to the barrel snd cried out to the peo ple, see here, "the devil's dye stuff burns blue,' no wonder it gives the drunkard the "blues" and makes everybody and everything look "blue.' The next step was to repeal the license law. Then to pass a law forbidding the sale of intox icating drinks tohabiliul drunkards and minora. Tlie next step was to induce the people- to exe cutothelaw. Finding that Ibis law did wholly meet the evil, he secured the passage the present Ohio Liquor Law, which holds' traf. fiekers and the premises on which the sales made, responsible for the damages caused the use of I ho liquor. IIu recently in'ormed me that ho was trying to secure the passage of a law which will com pel the drunkard to giro in his testimony as where he bought Ihe "devil's dye stuff. May our llroad uxu preserve its keen edge and swing triumphantly till the last chip is hewn iifi'and the old block is fairly hewu and made tur the Guod Templur s use. ONE OF THE BOYS.
