Editor I remained several days in Columbus after writing my lost, and as I was taking my morning promenade one day iBawthe familiar shape of Char lie McClure, holding up a door-post in front of the American Hotel. Having been away from Hlllsboro for nearly a whole day (which makes the average Hillaboro youth very lonesome) he wit) glad to get an opportunity of looking at somebody who used to live there, and ho joined mo for a stroll. CALLING ON THE OOV. "What do you say," said the tramp, (which is me), "to going over and paying our respects to the Governor?" And Charlie said that was just what ho was thinking of doing. So we entered one of the big iron gates and walked up one of the wide walks in tho beautiful capltol grounds and up the great stone steps to the office of Ohio's Chief Execu tive. Of course about so much red tape business is necessary before you can meet face to face with greatness, .and I guess there is probably less of it at the Colum bus State House than at others which I have visited during the course of my plaid career. Asyou may some day want to call on some Governor, it may not be out of place for me to here give you a few words of advice on the subject. Advice is my ono strong point. If there is any one thing thatl am better at than anoth er it is giving advice, and I believe that thoso who have been there will acknowl edge that this is about the way of it. ADVICE. Tho visitor will call at the office at some time between daylight and sunset, enter ing the room labeled, "Governor's Office" (but the Governor ain't there he's in an adjoining room.) Here a young clerk or secretary or something, who fully appre ciates the importance of his position, wil tell you that the Governor is not in, or that he has gone to Cincinnati, Oshkosh, or sommers-or-other. If you lie, and say that your business is of great importance (and you certainly will) he will toll you to tako a seat, ihat the Governor is in, he believes, but that he is very busy. And so ho is. He is probably refusing, for the nineteenth time to give somebody anap polntmont to some petty offlco, or for the forty-seventh time, telling a bald-headed and red-nosed lawyer with a red mus- .tache that he will positively not pardon his client (who was sent up from Moss back county for embezzlement or high way robbery as the case may be.) Yes, he is probably busy. The subordinate will peep into into the back room, and will then tell you that the Governor will see you after a while. You will then take a seat, kind o' natu ral like, as if sinking down on guberna natorial upholstery were nothing unusu al to you in fact, as though youhadbeen used to it all your life. You will be sure to suspect that the parties who are sitting near by are observing your embarasc ment, and whispering about it. You do not know, and yet it is a fact, that they think yon are regarding them with simi lar suspicions. You will sit and wait, and occasionally turn around and speak tremulously to to your companion, and all the time the hands of the big office clock are rushing wildly past the figures on its face, and you realize that you have' about three minutes left, in which to converse with his excellency, go eleven squares, and fill another engagement. At last you decide to postpone seeing the Governor until s'motherday, and you so inform the sub ordinate and make tracks. About the third time you go through with this ex perience and they find you are deter mined to see the Governor or bust', you will be told to step into the backroom, and at last there you are. The above advice may; not facilitate things for you, but it may learn you to be patient. Well, by-and-by, Charlie and I were invited into tho Governor's back room. His Excellency was busily engaged in conversatlon'With a bony, dried-up little old man, and after he left a big man with a hirsute head and big mustache said his turn was next, and the Govern or enjoyed a few minutes tete-a-tete with him, during which' the Governor frequently knit his brows, chewed his under lip and shook his head negatively. I suspected the caller wanted his cousin, doing time for horse-stealing or arson, pardoned, though of course' I may have been mistaken, I think Charlie thought so, too. At lost, he quit and yo monopolized the.Governor for a while. "Governor," saidil in my moqt gentle accents, "I am happy to meet you, I assure you I am."' I said that to reas sure film and remove any embarrass ment he may have felt at being In my presence. . - "I have been waiting sometime in order to Interview you," I continued, 'but J now haye very little time left, I had almost despaired of .seeing you 'at all, but, as I just remarked to my friend 1im- 'uv' Anfvtvimlnfv Mnmmaltaf Mn write' an interview without the trifling formality of talking to the 'Interviewed, and I was thinking I'd have, to do that. "Yes," replied His Excellency," and, that's the way most of them write them. But that ono in the State-Journal this morning is genuine." He refbrred to the interview regarding his remarks on Jeff Davis, made at the G, A. It. en campment. "I don't know JefT person ally, but I know htm well enough by reputation." ', , "You are aware, of course, that your name is being frequently mentioned for the Presidency in '88?" said I, interrog atively.. "Yes," with a good-natured smile, "I see it mentioned 'in the News-Herald this morning." ' Here I was perfectly conscious that I blushed perceptibly, but I'-don't know whether he'notlced it or not. ' If he did he was good enough not to' let on. And after a few more words of little importance the, Governor kindly ax tended me an invitation to drop in and loaf round tho office whenever I felt so disposed wo parted. In regard to his REMARKS ON' JEFI' DAVIS Governor Foraker said : "So far as what I said about Jeff Davis is concerned, I have no apologies to moke. Much of the feeling that Beemed to have been aroused is due to the fact that only a misleading extract of my remarks seems to have been pub lished in the Southern papers. I re ferred to him, as you will see, only in his relation to tho people of the South, who were honoring him. I respect the soldiers of the South for their heroism and bravery, and never have had any trouble getting along with them. But I despise such men as Davis, who brought mucn misery to nis country, ana shall never hesitate to say so. Here is what I said on the subject: '1 never yet have seen the time, since the war, or before the war closed, when outside of the hostile lines, I could not clasp hands and have respect for the brave man who could tako his life in his hand and battle for his convictions, though they were ever bo wrong, therefore it is that I can understand n why the people of the South can honor those men who were, led into that contest, but I can not understand why they should ever honor mensucn as Jell Davis, who, knowing better, misled them to their ruin in the attempt to destroy the best Government that the good Lord ever permitted the people to have. Whatever others may represent, this man Jeff Davis who talks about liberty, represents only human slavery, the degradation of labor, the treason of secession' and rebellion, the horrors and infamies of Libby and An dersonville, all in short that is most ma licious, vicious and dishonorable in American history to talk of 'him as an'f."rest and change" says the waiters got illustrious statesman who is to be lion ored with Washington in history, is to insult every sentiment of loyalty and' decency in this great country he did so much to destroy.' " FORAKER FOR PHESIDENT. Thero can be no concealing the fact that Joseph Benson Foraker is looming away up as a possible even probable- candidate for the next Presidency. One thing is certain, the Bepublican party could do much worse than nominate our Ben, and if ho can't get there, then none of them can. His qualifications are unsurpassed, and he is a recognized chief among the disciples of modern Republicanism. He is a man of whom, if you would meet him on the street without knowing him, you would say to yourself : "Thero is a man of ability." He towers as did Saul among his fellows, above tho Solons and leaders of the present day. The Washington National Republican of May 10th mentions his name as one of the strong ones, and journals, politicians, and the intelligent public who have sense enough to tell which way the wind blows, have long realized that he has before him high honors and a career of rare brilliancy. If I had anything to wager and was a betting man, I shouldn't hesitate to stake my all on tho belief that J. B. Foraker will livo to do honor to the White House by being its occupant, and that at no very lar distant day. And thenwon't we Highlanders "throw up our hats and holler 1" At this writing I am in THE CHAMPION CITY Again, after an absenco of a year and a half. Time has not dealt o'er-kindly with Springfield. When I first honored the city with my knightly tread it had all the bustle, activity and vices of a new Western mining town. Money was plenty, wages were good, and every went, as the saying is. I am certain that all my wages went ; but then I was young, and didn't draw more than steen dollars a week. Buildings were going up, anybody could get work, and there was life, energy and enterprise enough to turn the head of the slow-going Hills boroan. Now it is all changed. Wages are low. Money is scarce. The placard "To Let" may bo seen on the door of many a building which at that time would not have remained vacant a sin gle day. There aro many reasons for this. Old Bill Whltely, the champion machine man, is' charged with' causing the pres ent state of affairs. It, is certain that things need not have been thus. It is an awful illustration of the power of capital. Some day I am going to make the regulation of capital tho subject of a whole three-column letter, when I shall air some of my own, peculiar, original theories on the subject, and when I may have something to say of Springfield. I was going to do it now, but I want to give it more space than is at my disposal at present. There used to bo just about some thing leas than a million RILL8B0BOANS IlkBE, But many of' them have flown. Among the stayers whom I have seen is Jap 'Marshall, of that model journal the Sunday New', Fred liar wood, of the Qattttt, and family, and Mr. John Dog tteWnd family.' I also met Mr., John Corner, formerly a resident of Hlllsboro. There are, lots of worse people in the world than Jack. While hero I have revived some pleasant acquaintances of auld lang syne. I find "Doke West still on the Sunday NctvB, and Up Kllifritat still in the .big room around at the present Globe office. And good old George Harter, ono of the beet, kindest and fattest men in the congressional district, is the main guy in the office of tho now Champion City Timet, upon which Whltely is squandering a printer's fortuno every day. But' he can do many a worse thing with his spare change than divide it among the printers. Harter was the great-I-am on the Transcript when that jkheetwaj published where the Globe iifpublic notrw, and I remember him as one of the kindest of employers and most genial of gentlemen. Among the gentlemen of John Beising's Big Six and Mose Foreman's Bands I have also met many friends of other days, and I am really sorry that I can only remain here three days. Tho people of Springfield are trying to claim that she is going to boom ngain right away j that the shops are prosper ing again, and that she will live over again the halcyon days of '81-'2-'3. I hope so. It is a strange but true coinci dence that Springfield can date her de cline from the time that Barrero II and myself shook her dust from our feet. It may also be worth mentioning that we didn't shake any of her dust from our pockets T because I hadn't saved any, and Be because he likes it too well.

DOWN TO CALICO, A Story in Six Chapters. I1Y JANIE DIMPLE CHIN. CIIAlTEIt VI. The dctcctivo stood still, moved briskly up the walk. and Dick This was their first meeting. "I believe you aro Mr. Moore," Dick said, when they stood side by side. The detective nodded and replied stiffly, "I believe you aro Mr. Fessenden." "I came hero to see you," said Dick, eyeing Moore keenly. The detective re turned the cold stare. "And I was just starting out to hunt you." Mr. Moore's look implied tho cause for such a search. "I understand you, sir," Dick return ed in response to the detective's silent implication. Then tho two stood a mo ment on tho doorstep, but neither spoke. "Let's go in," said Dick, and he plac ed tho key in tho night-lock and throw the door open, explaining as he did so, how he had received tho key from the housekeeper, when ho met her down the street. Dick stopped to shut tho door, and the detective passed through tho hall and into Mr. Fessenden's bed-room, where Dick followed him. Mr. Moore took tho arm-chair by tho desk, and shoved a chair toward Dick. When both were seated Dick opened the ball by saying, "Well, sir, I havo read tho reports in the morning newspapers, and now I want to know something about this case." "If you have read tho morning papers, you know my opinion in the case," the detective answered, coolly. "All that remains to bo done is to work up a few additional proofs." Mr. Moore knew this expression was hazardous, but lie did not intend to "back down" until some now cluo com pelled him to. "If you can't do better than that, I think you need some help." The detective did not hoed Dick's sar castic fling. "What are you going to do about it?" he asked. A quotation of Tweed under such cir cumstances did not please Dick. "I think," ho replied, warmly, "if I wero working on this cose, and could gather no stronger array of evidence than you present, I would not dare to make known my suspicions to any one, much less claim in public print that I had found tho criminal." Mr. Moore arranged some papers on I the desk. Then ho looked straight at Dick. "This is a serious matter," ho said. "I was employed by Mr. Seymour to work up this cuso, and I have done my best. I have found the man. Hereto fore you took no interest in the cose, and at this late day, you come in to find fault. Now, sir, you have no business to inter fere." "Business to interfere," Dick repeat ed, in blank amazement. "Very strange, sir, that I have no right to know your theory of my uncle's murder, especially when you accuse mo of murdering him. Mr. Moore, I am a lawyer, and I know as well as you, that the stuff which you havo gathered, and which you call the proof in this case, is as absurd as a tun nel through the earth. I left the case with you aud Mr. Seymour, not wanting to appear as an avenger of blood. When you and he have mado such a gi gantic blunder, I feel like taking hold of the matter myself. "You forget what tho ovidence is against you, Mr. Fessenden." "Give me the time you have had, Mr. Moore, and I can come nearer proving you guilty than you havo to proving me guilty," was tho speedy rejoinder. "You would be afraid to introduce such non sense before any jury, for you would be laughed at. Now, what havo you more than the published statements ?" "I believe I told you I would not un fold my views of the ovidence, but the main points havo been published. Those you know." Tho detective knew that Dick's state ments were unvarnished truth, but he had heard criminals arguing their inno cence before, and he was not satisfied with simple denials. "Then if you won't unfold your views to me, I will unfold some of mino to you. I havo not been working up this case, but naturally I have thought about it, and I tell you, to begin with, that the person I suspect is Fred Seymour." "Humph," tho detective interrupted, sneeringly, "you blame it on young Sey mour to screen yourself." Dick roso from his chair and walked over to the detective witli oyes flashing and fists clenched. "Mr. Moore," he said, "that is enough of that kind of talk. This is my house, and if you don't act like a gentleman while here, I will put you out of it. I asked you for tho ovidence, and if you can't produce that you shall not taunt me with accusations. I had intended to lead you to a reasonable solution of tho case, but if you won't be led I will dis miss you." The detective eyed Dick, but did not move. , "Keep cool, sir. I am not frightened. You cannot dismiss mo, for I am acting under instructions from Mr. Seymour." "And Mr. Seymour," Dick added, "is acting under instructions from me, so, in short, you are my servant." This was a new phase of tto subject to Mr. Moore, nnd his indiscretion be came manifest. Moreover, ho did not care to try his physical strength aga'nst the muscular young man, who stood be fore him. "Well," he said, "proceed. You shall not bo interrupted." Dick remained standing. '.'You wero not at tho Coroner's in quest." "No, but I have a report of tho testi mony here," and tho detective pulled a paper from a pigeon-hole. "Let's see Fred Seymour's testimony." Mr. Moore ran his hand over tho pages, while Dick stood behind him, looking over tho detective's shoulder. "He testifies," said Dick, "that ho came in at the front door and passed through this room into tho next room there, and sat down at tho table oppo site my uncle. Ho describes his posi tion there, and does not say ho got up or moved his chair till he went away." "Well." "Then step this way, please," and Dick went into tho adjoining room. Dick took a chair nnd set it by tho table, whero Fred testified he sat. "Sit down there," said Dick. The chair was loose-jointed, and Mr. Mooro examined it suspiciously, before he obeyed. Then Dick placed the door ajar. "What do you see in the other room ?" "Tho corner of the bed." "How could Fred Seymour see the box?" The detective did not answer, but fol lowed Dick back into the bed-room. There he scanned tho position of vari ous objects. Silence ensued while Dick waited for an answer. "Tho bed may not have been then whero it is now," Mr. Mooro said, mus ingly. "That Is the only place that bed can stand in this room without blockading a doorway." Dick replied. "And do you suppose my uncle amused himself that afternoon, by moving the bed back and forth from ono side of tho room to the other? Why, sir,-that bed can't be moved without being taken down. It will fall down. It is just like the rest of this furniture." Again there was a pause. Dick wait ing for Mr. Mooro to speak, but tho de tective was meditating. Dick sat down at the desk and began to peruse the tes timony. The detective's perplexed thoughts were interrupted by Dick say ing, "Hero is another point that ought to be investigated. Seymour testifies that when he gave my uncle the note and tho check, my undo put them both into Ins outside coat pocket. Where are thoso clothes ?" Without a word tho detective went to the closet in the corner, took down the coat and vest of tho murdered man, brought them out and laid them on the bed. The sight of the sleek, threadbare outer garment brought a strange feeling to Dick, and a lump came into his throat, but when tho detective fumbled through the coat pockets, in a business-like way, the tender cord which had been touched, ceased to vibrate. Only one paper was found. That was the canceled oiotc. The check was not there. When Mr. Mooro had satisfied himself, a troubled expression came into his face, and -he stood gazing at the crumpled paper and the dead man's clothes. Then ho sat down by the desk in a studious attitude, and fixed his eyes on the floor. Dick did not suggest that Fred probably knew the wherabouts of that check, but allowed tho detective to draw his own conclusions. "Look hero," said Dick. The detective looked up, and Dick held tho coat to tho light, so that a small hole could be seen near tho middle of tho back. Mr. Moore was on his feet in an instant, examining the bullet-hole. "Where Is the vest ?" he asked, but without waiting for an answer, he went to the side of tho bed, and reached over to tho wall, where he had tossed the veft, while examining tho coat. As ho did so there was a crack, the bed-rail got uncoupled from the head-board, and ono corner of tho bed foil to the floor. "I told you that bed would fall dpwn on the slightest provocation," said Dick, repressing a smile with difficulty. But the detectivo was too intent upon this new cluo to notice tho proof of Dick's truism. "There's blood on the vest," Dick said, when Mr. Moore had brought it to the window. There was no reply. "That proves," Dick went on, "that my uncle was murdered in tho day time, and that the murderer took off the coat and vest to make it appear that ho had been murdered at night." "It proves, too," Mr. Moore replied, "that tho murderer knew Mr. Fessen den's habits, and knew whero ho hung his clothes whon he went to bed." The speaker looked sternly at his com panion as ho said this. Dick did not wince, but retorted, "Nothing of the kind. My uncle al ways hung his clothes on the back of a chair, or on the bed-post, when he went to bed. That you can find by asking Peter Crowley or Jemima." Again Mr. .Moore dropped into the chair and relapsed into silence. Tho sudden developments troubled him.
