HAPOLEON, 0 MARCH 2. 1S82. The pistol of Guiteau was the salva tion of the Stalwarts. Hut Guiteau will be hung. GuiTEAi; wants to write a book, says a news item. He has just two months to do it in. Navigation is open upon the northern lakes. This is from six to eight weeks earlier than usual. The Plain Dealer says the Ohio Legislature is visiting Washington at aomebody elsos expense. Too true. Bill Ciiandleb is to step into the shoes of the Stalwarts as Secretary of the Navy or what the Republicans call a Navy. Postmaster-General Howe decides that the "stamp frank" is not a legal frank, and the written name of Con gressmen must be on the franked mat ter. It is reported that Hunt is to leave the Navy Department this month. Slowly, but surely, Arthur is gather itie around him his Stalwart friends and followers. The Republicans of Defiance county will present the name of C. A. Flick -ineer to the State Convention as a cannidate for Member Board of Pub lie Works. He is a merchant. Arthur ha? hard work to find a man to take the Russian mission, it is reported. His oye skips over Ohio, as in this State there is one Repubh can to every square rod ready to hold office. The nomination of John C. New to be Assistant Secretary of tho Treasury, which was not fit to be made, was confirmed yesterday . Cm. Com. How harmonious the Republican party is! And still more harmony : He (Cockling) Is be-spattc-red with the blood of the nations murdered . Chief Magistrate. Senator Hoar, of Mass. The widow of ex-President Polk asks a pension. She is very old and poor, probably too poor to get a Re publican Congress vto vote her aid. Had she thousands in Government bonds she might stand more of a chance. Democrats of the different town ships should call their spring caucuses at once, for the purpose of putting in nomination candidates to be support ed at the elections in April. We make no charge for publishing these announcements, but request that com mittees hand them in. The committee to audit the ex penses of tho lace President's illness has fixed the compensation of the doctors in the case as follows: Bliss, $25,000; Agnew and Hamilton, $15,000 each; Keyburn and Boynton, $1,000 each; Miss Edson, 15,000; Crump, $3,000; and all other employees of the White Houso two months extra pay. Surgeon General Barnes is recommended for Major Gcner Uhfp and Dr. Woodward for a lieutenant Colo nelcy. Horrible: Senator Hoar, of Massa chusetts, when Conkling's nomination earn up for consideration in Execu tive session of the Senate made a fierce and bitter speech against the confirmation, saying among other things that Conkling was le-spattered tvith the Hood of the jnations murdered ilrief Magistrate. Toledo Dem. Nov Volume). With this number the thirtieth volurun of the Dkmochatic North w tut it commenced. The paper WM Ublished in 1852 and hat been pub lished weeklr ever tince with the ex ception of tashort tugpenfcion. It has grown in that period from a compara tively small sheet to itt present pro portions, it now being one of the largest country weeklies in the State. Its subscription list numberc nearly fifteen hundred names, having nearly douoled within the past nine years. That the Northwest has been appre ciated by the citizens of Henry coun ty its rapidly increasing subscription list testifies, and that it is a medium sought after by advertisers the liberal patronage bestowed upon it by our business men shows. We have nolprom ises to make for the future, but the high standard of the Nohthwest will not be allowed to wane. We return our thanks to one and all of our pat rons during the period of the twenty ninth volumn, with a hope that they may extend their business relations through the volumn just commenced. The Democratic Corpse. The Democratic party is surely a lively corpse, and has been gaining upon the Republican arrangement as facts and figures will show. Kepub lican iournals are in the habit of chronicling the death of the Democrat ic party, or announcing that it is rap idly goiug to pieces. The Philadel phia Telegraph, Republican, replies to the wild statements of a contemporary with o few facts and figures of an in structive character. It savs: There returns chow that while the Republican vote has steadily proportionality decreased tho Denio craUc vote hua steadily and certainly proportion ally increased. Surely as fate the Republicans have been losing ground and tho Democrata gain ing It. Take first the official return of 1888. 1R"6.

Tho election of 1876 can not well be considered. It was mud dled by fraud upon both sides, but it Is probable that Tilden had a majority of the electoral "and popu lar votes. Taking the four last elections together, however, It will be eeen that the Democrats have been getting nearer to the point where they can seize the "spoils," and there is no more stupid thing to bo done on the part of the Republican journals than to attempt to create the Impression that the Democratic party is in the last Btagcs of dissolution and that It la only the Republican party that is vital with principles and invulnerably intrenched in popular favor. Had the full Democratic vote the same vote that.Tilden got in 1876 been polled for Hancock in 1880, in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi,- Lou isiana, Virginia and some other South ern States, Hancock's popular majori ty over Garfield would have been not less than 150,000. But after the Oc tober election in Indiana, the Demo crats of those States grew discour aged and did not cast their full vote. A party that has -a following of five million of votes, organized and main tained without the aid of Federal pat ronage, can hardly be called a dead institution. The redistricting question has thrown the Ohio House of Represen tatives into convulsions. The Demo crats, with the exception of General Devereux, adhere to the caucus deter mination not to have anything to do with the matter in its present stage, and the Republicans are quarreling desperately among themselves. The refusal of the Democrats to accept places on the committee of Twenty is on the ground that by serving on the Committee they would be to some ex tent committed to whatever outrag eous gerrymandering bill may be re ported. It looks now as though the redisricting will be defeated by con flicting ambitions in the Republican party. Enquirer, A Republican office-holder says that the presidency would amount to little or nothing if the appointing pow er Bhould be taken from the President. The power to distribute the offices as rewards for services at the elections is, indeed, the sparkling diadem upon the head of our elective monarch. But this power taken from him, he would still be the commander-m-cniet or tne armv and navy and of the militia of the States when in service, and still in control of the heads of the executive departments and charged with the ex ecution of the laws, together with his further duties in connection with the charge of our foreign relations, and his Congressional legislative power; all of which duties are sufficient to require his entire time, but which have been heretofore grossly glected on acr count of the ' appointing power. American Register. Tub Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture reports that the wheat proxpectt were never oetter in Ohio than now. la tome of the north western counties, in the fall.coinplaintu of damage by tlje fly were -made, but as the winter advanced the croo came on until it has overcome any damage the lub'Ht may have done. If no backset meets the growing crop, the wheat harvest of 1882 will probably be the largest the State has ever known. Another swindle has been devised by the canning sharper to get the un suspecting farmer into his toils. An alleged speculator in country p-oduce calls on a farmer, purchases ten or fifteen dollars worth of eggs, butter or poultry, says he wants a receipt to show the firm that he paid the money, breaks the point of his pencil before the signature is reached, then takes from his pocket a fountain pen, and the farmer uses it, signing his name. The swindler then goes to town, sells the produce, erases the body of the receipt and writes instead a promis sory note for fifty or one hundred dol lars, and has it discounted at the bank. l he mention ot J. xj. JNews name throws Halstead into convulsions, es pecially so now that Arthur has called New to be Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. And now, that Conkling is to be made an Associate Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, we are afraid it will become necessary to apply ice poultices to the cranium of Halstead. And ice is so scarce, too. The Prohibitionists are contemplat ing a change in the name of their par ty. The proposition to christen it the "Home Protection Party" seems to e favorably received. But the name is not of much consequence. The fact remains that it has fought the traffic in liquor in Ohio for more than thirty years, with uniform success in being beaten. It has failed to educate the people up to the idea of one man leg islating for his neighbor's stomach. Cm. Cum. A resolution has been introduced in the House providing for final ad journment on the 13th of March. There is no reason for the Legislature to remain in session longer than that time as the appropriation bills are all in, and necessary legislation, excepting the matter of redistricting the State for Congressional purposes, has been transacted. Of course there are a couple of hundred bills in the hands of Committees, but the longer the session continues the more bills there would be. Some folks have a penchant for writing laws and the only way to cur tail their profound wisdom and great knowledge is to adjourn. Defiance Dem. Ellis, the man who confessed that he, with two other men named Craft and Neal, were, guilty of the double rape, triple murder and arson at Ash land, Kentucky, has now, when he comes" to be tried himself, Craft and Neal having already been convicted, made a second confession, in which he says that his first was a lie. Ellis is a liar and perjurer anyway; and there is an obvious motive for his second con fession, while there is no ne, except the pangs of a guilty conscience, for the first. Statistics show an alarming in crease in malignant scarlet fever. The deaths in New York City during 1880 were 618, and last year they were 1, 964. The deaths for seven weeks of this year, in the same city, have reached a total of 670. And yet de caying fruit and vegetable matter lit ter the sidewalk on Gay street in front of Marzetti's peanut stant from week's end to week's end. Zymotic diseases are nurtured, as every physician knows, by these rotten substances.

THE SPIRITUAL BODY FED THROUGH THE LINOS. When the organs of respiration are mentioned, the nose, throat, Irrynx. trachea, bronchial tubes and air cells con stituting the lungs are meant. The organs of respiration form the structure through which we breathe. When we close the lips and draw air through the nose it passes over the throat, through the larvnx. traohpa ni hrt-an. chial tubes into the air-cells. Thus it may be seen that all the organs of respiration combined from one continuous air-pass- fiDui uicatmug BirutHure. This air-passage from the nose to the lungs is covered with a membrane iner as the body is with skin. The surface of til's membrane is covered so closely with short hair-like tubes, that even under strong magnifying inspection it is barely i,v,"""" uiutcru any iniersuuai space. Alt these tubes have tiny orifices, or mouths, which are opened and closed by orbicular muscles, which relax and con tract with every systolio and dyastolic action of the heart. These mouths suck in and spew out with every throb of the pulse a thin transparent mucus which keeps the surface of the membrane wet. The importance of this membrane in the economy of respiration can not be too highly estimated. Life could not be sus tained without it. Were it not for this wet surface the repeated inspiration of dry air passing into the lungs would soon destroy the delicate tissueof the air-sells with fieryinflaamation. The office of this membrane is to the vital structure what the stomach is to the physical svstem. It digests the vir and attracts elements nuiu il iur vnai purposes. ay me vital structure is meant that interior organization winch is endowed with motion, sensation, intelligence, and ciiuumig me. in an oia nook it is spoken of as a '-spiritual body;" Plato, Aristotle, ana oocrates recognize it as the "interior sen. can it as we may, it is an intelli gent inter-pervading essence of the pnysicai structure; and the physician who does not understand the laws tnrougn wmcn it manifests its presence, in sicKness and in health, is, to sav the me least, not ful'y qualified in his pro iession, no matter in what school of meaicine ne nas graduated, or how many nuijuio ma uinu muier may nave con ferred upon him. Beautifully related to this inner bodv are the organs of respiration. They draw from the atmosphere supplies to pruiuuie us growtn ana perpetuate its existence. Throueh them mao-nptin and electric elements are attracted for the indwelling spirit, just as nutrition is sucKeu up by the mesenteries to sustain tne pnysicai structure. The analogy is perfect. i he anatomy and nhvninWv nf tho human lungs are wonderful. They are superior to those of animals. The very fact that the vesicular - structure ulti. mates in air-chambers, that the vnsculnr system insinuates its tiny net-work of canals all over the walls of these cham bers, that the bronchial tubes terminate in air-cells, that Darenchvma is a suh. stance of polar attraction, and the fact that this whole structure is in harmony with the heart through the pulmonary veins, and with the brain throueh the sympathetic nerve and lympathetic glands, forces the conviction that the lungs were designed to receive and or ganize atmospheric elements into en during structure that is governed by principles of justice and eternal laws. very respectfully, N. B. Wolfe. M. n. 146 Smith St., Cincinnati, O. In referring to Dr. Wolfe, and his mode of treatment, the Evenina Record. of Adrian, Mich., says: He is a physician of large learning and of twenty-five years of successful practice in Cincinnati, in the treatment of Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, Loss of Voice. Bleeding from the Lungs, and kindred diseases of the Respiratory Organs. Though he has been continuously located in Cincinnati. O., since 1857, he has prescribed for, and cured thousands of sick people living in all parts of the United States and Canada, many of whom had previously been given up by friends and physicians as incur able. Those who live at a distance and wish to consult him. but can not visit him in person, should first write for his circular of printed questions. By writ ing answers to these, any one can send as true a statement of his condition as if he made his report to the doctor in person. From this circular statement the doctor can accurately diagnose the disease and prepare inhaling remedies forits removal. This with the inhaler he Bends quickly uy express, wnn instructions lor Using them, to all parts of the United States and Canada. His address is 146 Smith Street, Cincinnati, O. Constitutional Amendment. Regret has been often expressed that Jefferson had not been a member of the convention which framed the constitu tion of the United States. He was in France at the time. It appears from his Works that he was in favor of an easy mode of amending the constitution. On this subject he said: "Whatever be the Constitution great care must be taken to provide a mode of amendment when ex perience or change of circumstances shall have manifested that any part of it is unadapted to the good or the nation." And again he said: "'Facility of amend ment is certainly requisite to maintain it (the Constitution) in a course of action accommodated to the times and changes through which we are ever passing." In England the constitution may be altered by a single act of the legislature (Parlia ment). (Jefferson's Complete Works. Vol, VII, p.323.) Under popular government, alterations in the organic law should not be to fre quent or inconsiderate. But as Jefferson said, they should.be made so as to main tain a course of action accommodated to the times and changes through which we are ever passing. The force of this all must admit: and that such occasions has now occurred for amending the Constitu tion of the United States no intelligent man, desiring to preserve and improve our Government, will deny.
