Letter from Ohio.
Cincinnati, Ohio,")
September 26th, 1873. J
Deae Advocati:
THI BEAaOH WHY
you had no letter last wtek, was because I
didn't send you one; For all practical
purposes a sufficient reason. Something
like the one given by the lawyer, in excuse
for a client who had not obeyed a summons.
"May it please your Honor," said he "I
have tea reasons to offer for the disobedi
ence of my client. The firBt is, he died be
fore servioe could be made: the eeoond is"-
"Never mind the other nine reasons; the
first is sufficient," said the Judge. But I
didn't write because I was called to the in
terior of the "dark and bloody ground" and
have but now returned; and "take op my
pea" to tell you what Deacon Smith, of the
Cincinnati Oatette, did to a printer, and
war Dip it.
The Deacon ia the truly good man, made
famous bv the efforts of the New York Sun,
and the Cincinnati Commercial. He has
red hair, and a sawmill voice and looks both
ways for bunday. His main horror ia the
fact that the Commercial and Enquirer
uDuia Bunday editiona whioh. aa you
are printed 8aturday sight, while
the Gaietle, publiehed Monday morning,
la neceisarily, printed Sunday night Wot-
withstanding this notorious laot, the good
ueaoon, owing te his obliqne vision, cn
not be made to comprehend the situation.
But why condemn him for that little fault?
Is a man who takes his Bourbon straight,
and who doesn't part his hair in the middle,
to De blasted Tor one faultT
KOl A TBOCSAKD TIMIS oI .
But this isn't the story; and I am thus
diffusive about the food Deaoon. the better
to impress you with the terrible Jiktioe of
jiis oaring aeea or Dlood. The Ieaoon
prides himself on the way he Slings psti.
His npstrokes are light, and his down
strokes heavy; exoept when he writes in
Italian and then, of course, the style is just
the opposite. Some think hie penmanship
is the best thing about his writings Well,
the Deaoon onoe wrote an article for a little
paper, published by some Fair, held for a
oharitable purpose, in this city, and his
jubject was Charitv. He thoneht of writ.
ing a composition on 8pring; but, as the fair
was held in Winter, he didn't. And he just
am nimseir out on that artiole. It was
like copper plate. And in that artiole be
said, "Let the soil of charity be cultivated
at home; in the sanctity of the fireside It
will uature;"and the miserable printer who
aad worked on Horace ureeiey s editorials,
and couldn t read good writing, set it up
tbdslt:
Let the soil for cheese, be cultivated
with loam; in Si Keok'e fertiliiers it will
mature." And when the good Deacon saw
it, he was mad! He swore, He gi'lped
uown Beveral more swears. He called one
of his wioked partners, handed him a gun,
and, in silence, pointed to the manuscript
and then to the fair paper. He looked on
this picture and then on that. The stood
Deacon then buried his face in a copy of
me uaiette ana wepti me wicked partner
iroue uiio ine composing room. There was
a loud report! smoke!! a shrill orv for
mercey:!! and that wretched printer, ob!
wbkrr teat he?
t dok't mow.
You need not be told that the Coroner's
Jury passed a series of resolutions compli
menting the good Deacon for his prompt
action, and assessed the coBts on the wicked
partner. Every story should have a moral.
And the moral of this is, that if I bad a
wicked partner and a gun, some one might
get hurt in the Advocati office. I agree
with Artemus Ward, that a man who can't
spell is a ornary cuss. Your printer makes
me spell operation" with two "p i" con
sider," with two "d's" and "another" with
I two
n s." Now I oousider that another
operation of that kind will give rise to
serious consequences. Take warning by
the late of the dead printer, and forget not
me wrath ot Deacon Bmith.

lack of sense which the leaders of the

loo much in the manner of a school boy

is poor, lie is, however, a man to impress
the spectator with a sense of ereat force of
character, and considerable intellect. His
forehead is splendid; but the eyes too small,
giving him too much the appearanoe of
shrewdness, rather than of possessing the
faculty of taking broad views of men and

After Sherman was through, Dick Corwin.
formerly a resident of Cincinnati spoke.
tie told of his love for Cincinnati and her
people; how, once, he was young and now
was oiu; but now ready he waa to work for
the Republican party; for, said he, "on the
Republican party hanes the fate of the
Country," which reminded me of the old
lady who, when told the salvation of the
country depended on the success of the
Democratic party, exclaimed,
"Uh! Lord, upn what slender threads
Do hang eternal thines."
Dick is mistaken. Politicians of all par
ties have said the same thing. But parties
have died and will die; and vet the country
is not lost. The safety of the oountry lies
in the virtue and intelligence of ite people;
and should it ever come to hang on the suc
cess of any political pary, Democratic, Re
publican or any nther, it bad better hang
itself outright.
A CCBIOCS FEATURE
in the many aided Ohio campaign, ia the
report that Sherman and hia frienda deaire
the re-eleotion of Thurman te the Senate.
If Thurman be beaten, the auccessful man
will most likely be Delano, who stands so
high in administration favor, that ha would
eclipse Sherman; who, being now the only
Hepublican Senator from O hio, necessarily
wields a very laige patronage. Another
curious feature, is the formation of a party,
by men of all political views, whose princi
pal plank is "JNo Candidates." No one who
is a candidate can belong to that party. Any
one hereafter becoming a candidate must
leave it. They propose to make a ticket
from the regular parties and vote for it. So
we w HI have at tne polls the Republican, the
Democratic, the Liberal, the Temperance,
the Labor Reform, and the "Non descript"
parties. I reckon there will be plenty from
which to chooae. There aie also the disaf
fected Germans and Irish, and the Young
Mens Christian Association.

I aee by the Elk papera that you are not

complaint ia chronic in the backwoods.
Having so often fought, bled and died in
the aame fight myself, I can appreciate the

would have a hand in the row. Aa it is. I

Th Chronicle! of Ellick.
eBArna I. '
1 And it came to pass, in the seventh
month of the off year in politics, that the
Dlmmyohrats of Elllck assembled together
2 And took counsel ia the city over by
the way of the Ridge; which Is the ancient
capital of the Province of ElUck,
8 That they might present to the peopl
offioers to rule over them; annotating them
with certlfioatea of election, and ordaining
them into a Court U ouse Ring..
4 Now the Prnvlnoe of Ellick was always
governed by Rings; which in the common
tongue, meaneth the "Ins,"
A Aad the candidates whe were not
choosen were called the "Outs;" and being
Outs, they went up and down by Cursey
and flinnamahone, and lifting up their
voices, cried,
6 Aad their cries went even unto the
ahingle whlttlers of Jay, and the hide skin
aers of Jones, and to the uttormost bor
ders of MilUtooe.
7 And they said; Oh! people of Ellick,
Lo! you have chosen another ring, which
we would not have been, (because you
wouldn't give us a chance.)
8 Mow it was the custom of the Dlmmy
enrata of Ellick, after each convention to
have abbolt.
9 (Now "abbolt" meaneth a busting up
of things generally )
iu Ana tney had abkolt In the year
whereof these things are written.
ji dul, naving naa abbolt, they were
Itr. a . . .. ..
badly scared; and they said,
12 Verily, we have busted things a little
too completely this time.
13 And, repenting, they said: Perad
venture we have over done it this time: and
and those who were not Dimmyorats an
swered "You bat! "
14 And the chief cause of abbolt this
year, was the desire of a Messenger,
who dwelt in the grore nigh to the mill
race or Dick, who had been a Judge in
Ellick,
lo (And Uouk'ome Dick within one of
again being a Judge, pertaineth not
hereto.)
16 (Now the Messenger of the grove
was not the Messenger of whoa the Scribe
wrote, in days gone bye, when he waa
loyal.
17 (But it waa his son; and both are
now disloyal and gave their voiees that the
Dimmychrats should have abbolt)
18 lhat he might have the custody of
the money of Ellick, and sell unseated
lands in the first year:
19 And also one Olcjoebiell, who dwelt
on the hilltops and brewed choice liquors,
desired to do likewise, and he was a jolly
oll f.u
20 But there was a rumor in the land
that Olejoe did look with exceeding favor
upon a Dimmychrat, who was called Jimma-
cluskey.
21 And it was written on the slates of
the caucus, that Olejoe's hash waa to be
cooked, because of this Jimmacluskey, and
so it wae.
22 Now the council baviog gone home,
the ancients of the DimmychraU said
among themselves,
28 Verily there is but one way to get eut
of this; the Lion and the Lamb mus. lie
down together; aud be fjrzeiful of tutu!
, s f
iniquities
24 And we will call a new Council of the
Dimmychrats, and " everything will be
lovely,
25 And the Ooose will be elevated to an
altitudinous point. And they did as tbey
agreed; and called a new council. And
here endeth the first lesson.
CBAVTEB II.
1 And the new council met in the hall of
Justice, when Matthew had rung the bell;
and Matthew was clad in a swallow tail,
and its buttons were of brass.
3 Ana being assembled, and the high
places having been filled, one of the chief
men arose and spake, saying:
t. nunny vniei: isenoia there are
O U .1 Sit M .
brethern here who ceme not forward; and
he bid them oome up.
4 And then spake a dweller in the camp
of Horton: and he waa a small man but his
head was level.
5 And he said, "Oh! Dimmychrattl
things horten't to be aa they are; and we
cannot perceive it in those lamps: and we
will ngt be garnered in lo your oorn crib.
Let the Meesenger and Olejoe five wav.
and then we will come in."
6 "Otherwise, not. For it can be seen
by the unassisted optic, that Olejoe has got
this oouncil tight and fast.
7 And aa be is already cboaen, we think
it useless to go through the motions," and
he sat down.
8 And the Messenger of the grove said
J cat's the ticket," and be was willing to
throw up the sponge: but Olejoe lifting up
hia left eye
V Lxpoaed it before the people; and
asked if they beheld anything with verduie
clad, therein? aud he atuok.
10 And immediately there waa a row,
and abbolt.
11 And the High Priests from Horton,
and the High Lands, and those who labor
where the Creeks spring up, and the Mill
oiunes cry aioua, gave their voices a gain
for abbolt, and tbey lit out,
12 And there's a chance for lota of fun
in Ellick. And the scribe standeth afar off
and enjoyeth the tuu at a distance.
13 And although these things are also
written in the records of the Messenger of
the grove, the name thereof being the
Ellick Dimmyohrat
. 14 Yet I also have written them, for a
better remembrance of the thing; and for
particulars, see a mall bills.
15 And here the scribe rested: but as
rumors of the fight in Elliok come to him,
he will writ again.
16 And here endeth the aeeond leaaon.
Stl that your name is on the
tration list.
