It is a fact we have insisted upon with some energy, that a man may be able to tell "how far the Tomhigbee runs up," to the satisfaction of an -Examining Board, and still be deficient in moral prinoiple. As a man's honesty cannot be determined from his handwriting or his knowledge of Algebra, it would seem to be necessary to have some one speak from personal knowledge of either the applicant or his Touchers, as to his reputation for honesty. If there is any better person to do this than the Congressman from his District, we would be clad to know it. Chanee Tor a Promt.!!,- Young; Cow Lawyer. Thf great want of Solon Shingle, after finding some one who had seen anything of a bar'l o' apple saas, was to find n promising young cow lawyer. The Stale of Ohio also stands in need of a promis ing young cow lawyer. Are you aware, most respected proprietor of a cow or cows, as the case may be, that there is a State law to prevent such animals from running at large, except by permission of the County Commissioners? The Toledo Blade, which is published lo a small town on the Maumee where the past urage or the public streets is a perpetual 'temp tation to domestic animals, has furl lisbed us a brief abstract of this law, of which we avail ourselves. It seems that, by the statutes of Ohio, (Swan & Saylor, age 7; and as amended March 30, 1875: vol. 72, Ohio Laws, page 170,) is oeciared to be unlawlul for any person or persons, being the owner Or havinor ..liarm. nf n W... . 11 ll B " """, ".tn-, came, sheep, goats, swine or geese, to suffer the same to run at large in any public road or highway, or in any street, lane, or alley; ..... and any person violating the provision! of this act shall foj-feit and oar for vary such violation, a penalty therefor, not lea than on dollar, aor son than Ira dollar; eon limed violation after notice or proaecntion, .hall be held to be an additional on mm. lor anon and every day of each continuance. Section six provides, thai any peraon finding any animals mentioned in this act at large contrary lo ita provision, may, and any eonatabln of any township, or marshal or constable of any oity or incorporated village, on view or information, ataU take np and confine the same forthwith, giving notice thereof to the owner, if known, and if not known, by posting notice, describing each animals, etc Section seven provides, that the person or officer taking up such animals shall be entitled to charge and receive from the owner of inch animals the following fees, in addition to those authorised by the law regulating estrays, to-wit : For taking up and advertising each animal of the horse kind or mule, on dollar, each head of neat cattle, eeventyfive cenls; each swine, fifty oents; each sheep or goose, twentyfive cents, and also reasona-le pay for keeping the same. Mayor Marx and eity authorities of Toledo are juat now making an effort to enforce this law, and their example is worth following in other cities where railroad subscriptions are met more promptly. Has Columbus any promising young cow lawyer who will undertake the casef Defbkes, of the Miami Union, was on the stage when Allen made his speech to the Convention, and here ia what be thinks of it : Governor Allen's speech to the Demo cratic Convention in response to his nomination wae undoubtedly the most disgraceful performance ever enacted by any Governor. Hia low, vile abuse "of the Republican party stamps him as one of the lowest and most vulgar demagogues in the State. 80 low and disgusting were hia remaika that we have yet to find tbe first member of his party, who makes any pretensions to character and decency above a pot-house blackguard, attempt to justify them. That speech alone ought to lose mm twenty thousand votes in the State. Govemrr Hayes would not descend to so "low a deep" if thereby he could secure the Fre-itlency. Pertinent Iuqnlrlea. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : Can you inform your readers under which law and by what authority our City Council made a levy of 15 mills for city purposes ? Such a levy is a clear and palpable violation of law, and I doubt whether the taxpayers of Colum bus will submit to such an imposition. Three mills for opening and extending streets is rich, and attords a nice speculation for aharka to fleece the public. It ia only a little matter of $82,000. By the by, can any one tell what has become of the $50,000 levied last year for a sinking fund ? Taxpayer. MEMORIAL. nr. Kara nil... Dr. Ezra Blias was well known to a large number of prominent business men in Ohio and the Eaat, from his long connection with the Banking Business in this State and in New York city,,and from Mb prominent social position. The announcement of his death some time since has caused considerable inquiry, particularly as to the later years of his life, during which Dr. Bliss spent much of his time abroad.' We have therefore obtained a few facts from friends for the purpose of presenting a short memorial sketch of his life. Dr. Ezra Bliss was born in Vershire, Vermont, in 1815. His father, Dr. Ezra Bliss, having a large family of children, this son was taken to Maine and educated by his eldest brother, Dr. Hiram Bliss, He graduated in Medicine at Bowdoin College, in 1837, and then came West to seek his fortune, traveling through a number of the Weatern States. He final ly Bellied in Iowa City, where he practiced his profession for nine or ten years. His specialty was surgery. In 1848 he married Mary, daughter of the late Hon. W. B. Hubbard, a distin guished Banker of this city. In 1849 Dr. Bliss was elected cashier of the Toledo Bank, and from that time onward he was engaged in banking, so long as he was able to pursue any business. He soon formed a partnership with Herman M. Hubbard, and engaged in pri v"ite banking, in Toledo. In 1855 he re-m05 d to New York city, establishing the well kn.""1 "rm of Blias, Williams & C0.1 Rankers we" known in Wall atreet and throughout th' West for many years. After a year or more 01 paioim irouute from his eyes, during which he received no relief, Dr. Agnew, .' Oculist, advised his going to Berlin to the celebrated Elinike of Prof, von Graele. There he remained some time, receiving benefit; but hisgenural health becoming impaired, he traveled much, consulting the most emi nent medical skill in Europe, but finding no cure for hia increasing maladies- Rheumatic Gout. An English physician (Dr. Campbell) finally recommended tbe baths of St. Catharine, Canada, where be received great benefit under Dr. Mack's especial care. His friends say they can not speak too highly of this rest for in valids, where every comfort of a home ie found. Permanent cure was not hoped for. Dr. Bliss talked with the greatest calmness of his approaching end ; said "his house was set in order," and that he awaited with joy the summons that should take him to his Saviour. Death had no sting for Buch a man, and the Grave had no victory over him. He hailed Death as the beginning of life eternal, and welcomed the grave as a release from all pain. Years before, he had united with the Church at Toledo, and was confirmed by Bishop Mcllvaine in 1850. This brief sketch is the merest outline of a life filled with kindly actions, per formed with the unobtrusive modesty of a true Christian gentleman. The elevated esteem in which he was held by all those who knew him best, was at once his highest eulogy and his most honorable and lasting memorial. A decision waa rendered in the Supreme Coure ot Ohio yesterday sustaining what is known as the Worthington law, which says the city of Cincinnati shall contract no debts unless it has money in the Treas ury to pay them, BY TELEGRAPH TO TBB OHIO STATE JOURNAL ATHENS.

The Odd Fel lows of this and adjoining towns are to day celebrating the anniversary of 8ereno Lodge. There la a large attendance, notwithstanding the heavy rains last nakht and this morning. Dinner in the College Campus and epeeches are the order of tbe day. Three brass bands were in attendance. Our citisena are very much exercised over the recent action of the College Trustees asking land owners who have not purchased the College lands in to do so within five yean. The law paased by the last Legislature will materially injure the sale sf property, aa no sensible person will be anxious to shoulder the chances of a lawsuit. Dr. Ueorge D.

The Scioto Valley engineer corps haa reached this place, and is now working around tbe city. Our citizens have not given np hopes for the two new roads, and under this etimulus the place is improving rapidly. I don't think there ia anv danger of its ever becoming a great seaport town, but it ia bound to have a population of forty or fifty thousand in a few years. Its beau- tnui location, surrounded by lerlile valleys, ia an attraction that will he appreciated. Many travelers who alight at the depot think it is Columbus in disguise when they aee the street cars, and soon realize the difference when they aee the beautiful streets.

New York, June 29. Joseph Loader waa arrested late last night on complaint of Colonel Beecher, fur perjury. Price appeared as a witness ttgaiuat him, mak ing affidavit thht he did not know Loader previous to 1872, and knew nothing about Tilton's house until recently. He said Loader told him that now would be a good time to make some money. J udge Morris appeared for Loader, and Tracy and Hill for tbe complainant. 1 he J udge ordered both Loader and Price to be locked up for examination. Mr. Morris said yesterday his side was ready to begin again within an hour after the discharge of the jury, using the testi mony ot Loader and i'rice. Suspicion. Movement. In the 1loln- uy ui me .jury aaoom. The Times to-day has the following in its story of the Tilton-Beecher jury: About lour p. m. yesterday, those who happened to be in the corridor were as tonished to see Shearman, Murray and Bigelow, and lawyer Abbott's clerk, walk briskly from the court room to one ad joining that in which the jury were, with two windows looking directly into the windows of the latter room, at a distance of twenty feet. An attempt to follow them showed they had secured the door by placing a chair under the knob. When the point was found from which a view of the interior of the room could be obtained, it was seen that Shearman and Bigelow and Abbott's clerk were engaged in an animated debate in front of one of the windows, while Murray was at the other, conversing in a loud voice with Christopher Filler and Geo. Hall, who were standing at the window opposite. At this point the reporters burst in the door and entered the room, when Shear man, Murray and the clerk instantly made their exit, liigelow remained nearly half an hour, the reporters watching him closely, when he look his leave in apparent disgust. As soon as Fitler saw the reporters he closed up the blinds. A view of the room subsequently obtained from a house in Bonum Place showed that the twelve were again in consultation.Another nfeasag-e from the Jury-Loader a Blackmailer. The Tilton-Beecher jury have not yet agreed. This morning they sent for the testimony of Beecher and Moulton, and it was furnished. It was rumored around the Court building to-day that Loader, arrested on charges of conspiracy and perjury, has confessed that his story and published amaavit were manuiacturea ana untrue. J. J. Price, fhe upholsterer who a few days since with Loader made affidavit that he had, while laying carpets at Tilton's house, seen Mrs. Tilton and Beecher in an equivocal position, to-day swears that the former story is untrue and the result of a deep laid conspiracy. The Jury mill nut. The jury entered Judge McCue'sroom at 8 o'clock, and at 10 the Court House waa locked for the night. A Clnclnnalian Hlehly 4'onipll. tuent.u, Cincinnati, June 29. Colonel 8. P.

The local government of Hong Chow prondftea to send independently ten thousand taela worth of porcelain and Bilks. The death ia announced of Tao, Vioe-roy of Kausuah, and the moat powerful official of the old Chineae race in the Empire, with the single exception of Lyang Chong. After repeated delays work on the telegraph between Fuchow and Amoy is to be resumed. The Chinese authorities openly declare their determination to exterminate the aborigines of Formoca. The latest plan of the invasion adopted is destroying the interior forests by igniting balls of cotton saturated with oil. Many valuable camphor groves have already been destroyed. In indirect encounters with the savages the Chinese have thus far been worsted. Oa May 23, Trinity Sunday, the Church of the Holy Trinity in Shanghai was erected into a Cathedral for the diocese of Bishop Rusaell in North China. Fifty thousand Mahometans are now residing in Narking. The authorities of Chin Hinkiang express regret for the recent destruction of the American Miaaionary Chapel, and offer to make good all lowea. Arrangements are in progress for the opening of extensive coal mines in Kwantung province. A Chinese officer of high rank was ex ecuted at Taiwan Fu for cowardice in battle with the savagea of Formosa. Military reform Las been begun in the province of Fu Kien by the introduction of foreign arms and drill among a limited number of troops. There are jealous quarrels in consequence, and serious riots between soldiers of the new and old schools. The National Bank of India has opened a branch at Shanghai. A rebellion has broken out in Manchuria, caused by oppressive exactions against mining laborers. Fifteen hundred troops have been sent from Tientsin. A proclamation from English philanthropist agninst the Peruvian Coolie trade ia published and widely circulated in the Chinese language, and is also advertised in the native newspapers. It is intended aa a wholesome warning, but much ridiculed as tardy and now superfluous, the Coolie traffic having beenstop-ped soon after the action taken by Japan iu the famous Mari-a-Luz case. The tone of the comments in English newspapers published in China on the Margarv murder show less regret at the calamity than exultation over the oppor tunity ottered of securing new concessions from China and taking absolute possession of Btirmah. The complicity of the Bur mese King is boldly assumed, and the ne cessity of annexation universallyinsisted upon. Mr. Wade, the British Minister, is accused of neglect in not demanding restitution from China. The Chinese Government proposes, in the event of conquering the savage territory of Formosa, to build walled towna there aa fast aa taken. In consequence of coolie reports from Cuba, China peremptorily refuses further departures of emigrants. The Spanish Charge at 1'ektug pronounces this to be a violation of treaty. A serious quarrel and futile attempt at arbitration by the diplomatic Ittrps bas resulted. China says Spain may go to war il she chooses, hut emigration shall not be resumed ex cept on condition of the reception of Chinese Consuls in Cuba fur the protection of laborers. Discussion is postponed till the arrival of the Spanish Minister in Peking. China is sustained by a majority of the foreign envoys, and there ia little doubt that the hpanish representative will be compiled to yield. On Alay 20 the brttlsh steamship Uoug- InsB waa attacked by Chinese smugglers at coo Chow, and a title-writer named Jilock Lock shot. The Chinese were beaten off and four killed. The United States Consul General at Shanghai is criticised for trying an American named Glover, in the Chinese aervice as Commissioner of Customs. The suit is brought for damages caused by hia action in an official capacity by order of the Chinese Government. Il ia claimed that the Consul's jurisdiction is improper ly exercised. A great typhoon visited Jiong Kong May 31. The 8teamship Poyanz waa wrecked near Maco, and one hundred and twentvfour lives lost.

Flnanees of Two Northwealera Road.. Boston, June 29. A meeting of bondholders of the Chicago, Dubuque and Minnesota, and the Chicago, Clinton and Dubuque Railroad companies, was held this forenoon for the purpose of hearing a report of the committee of investigation appointed at a previous meeting. The report covers two columns. In substance il states that figures collated from, the statements nf Messrs. Joy, Graves and Walker to February 28, 1875, ahow that $352,022,72 are unaccounted for in the construction and railroad com paniea' accounts. It further states that wasteful and extravagant management is apparent, and embodies an opinion of Judge Hoar to the effect that any bondholder who has purchased hoods on the faith of the circulars of June 7, 1871, or March 7, 1872, he being a stockholder of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, and still holding bonds, may bring a suit in our own courts against any or all of the members of the construction companies who, as directors of the Chicago, Burlington and Qujncy, volcd for the iasue of these circulars, but it ia not so clear that the holders of bonds purchased in open market would have such a remedy. Moreover, any bondholder may have a remedy against the trustees of the Chicago, Dubuque and Minnesota mortgage for any depreciation in the value of their bonds caused by their issuing Turkey River Brauch bonds in violation of the trust and againat the Directors of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, who were members of the construction companies, for any depreciation of their security which might arise from the sale of these bonds to third parties without notice. The following was adopted by the meeting : That the committee of Investigation be instructed to continue negotiations with parties againat whom claims are supposed to exist, and in case stipulations satisfactory to them are offered, to send circulars agreeing to foreclosure to all bondholders for their signatures; that in case the negotiations failed, suits be brought in accordance with Judge Hoar's opinion, and that in case negotiations were concluded and signed, the committee continue theirinvestigation relative to the status of the roads, and take the necessary proceedings to Becure the rights of bondholders aa mortgagees. Content for Puaaeflalon of the Hem-pills and Little Rock Koad. Memphis, June 29. The transfer of the Memphis and Little Rock railroad to R. R. Dow yeaterday by President Greenlaw, without the sanction of the Board of Directors, creates considerable excitement here. President Brinkly, who owns a controlling interest in the road, after obtaining an injuction from Chancellor Walker last, evening, enjoining Dow from taking possession, attempted to reach Little Rock to oppose Dow in any attempt to have himself appointed Receiver, which Brinkly thinks was the real object of the transfer, but was unable to obtain an engine, aa President Greenlaw has placed the rolling stock under the orders of Dow. Brinkly leaves for Little Rock this afternoon, however, and it is evident that a great amount of litigation will be the result of the action of the President, WASHINGTON. telegraph tolls on government messages.Washington, June 29 The confer ence between Telegraph companies and the fostmaater General took place to-day. There were present, Orton of the Western Union, Blossom for the Southern and Atlantic, and Dunn for the Atlantic and Pacific, in the absence of General Eckert. Alter a long discussion the rostmaster General informed them that he would not now decide, but would notify them that it was probable he would reduce the rates onequarter of a cent on each word, making it threefourlha of a cent instead of a cent, as at present. Orton gave notice that his company would not consent to such a reduction. Eckert sent a letter, saving his company was satisfied with present rates, but hoped in a short time to oe anie to accept mucn lower rates lor service. Extensive Bruise Work Burned- Paterson, N.
