The Canton Repository puts its " Sparks and Splinters " together. There will be a cremation in that locality some day. It is said that Benjamin F. Butler has handled 20,000 dogs in his life, and has never suffered any inconvenience from it. But, how about the dogs? According to the Dayton Journal, it has " a malicious fool " among its readers. On further investigation we find that the fool rends the editorials. The editor of the Toledo BlaJe makes ' .a personal question of having the opinion of the Commercial as to infant damnation. We have been doing the editor of the Blade the injustice of taking him for 1 an imperfectly developed adult. Our friend of the Bucyrus Journal is ' surprised to find the Cincinnati Gazette "very unjuBt, very selfish, and very narrow in its strictureson the postoflice bill."

The 'ditor of the Gazette has neither uian- fhood, honesty" decency nor Sense. " A It is the most astonishing thing in the world. Have you noticed it? Creswell j has been more bullied and slandered Dy the Democratic and Independent press than any other Cabinet officer of this Administration. He lias gone straight along, a good deal like Grant, doing his duty as he understood his duty, and paying as little attention as possible to labored mis constructions and misrepresentations that would have disheartened most men. Now, after the most elaborate and deeply laid plan of assault has just failed, and the bad animus of the attacks has been made so apparent that the New York Tribune and the more decent of the Independent papers have joined in shaming his slanderers and announcing his triumphant issue out of all their entanglements, he resigns, And. at once, all these late slanderers unite in shouting, What a splendid, hon est, capable oflicer he was and what w irreparable loss he will be to the Grant Administration ! They do not see how the Administration is to wng along with- I out him he was the only man, you would . think, that they had ever had any conn ' dence in. j Such is life. With the reasons for Mr. Creswell's resignation we have no acquaintance with his ability and honesty we have con siderable acquaintance. We have not chosen heretofore to subject either himself or ourselves to illnatured remark by speaking of the perpetual misconstructions of reckless men, even where we knew of our own knowledge that they were in famously false. Now that Mr. Creswell has retired, it would be doing him less than justice to fail to add our special re grets to those of the public generally, and to speak a word as to what we know per sonally of his official character. We have never met any man who bo performed every official duty as to more unmistaka bly create the conviction that he was de voted with his whole powers to the hon est, faithful, impartial and singlehearted performance of his duty In the public service to the uttermost. The Dallas Real Estate Bulletin says of the future of Texas : "At the present rate of increase in population, in ten 5 years Texas will be the second or third I stale in the Union in numerical strength, j It now produces more cattle and horses f than any other, and la about equal to any other in its exports of cotton. Its lum-ber production is rapidly passing to the front rank. It has much the lamest and grandest endowment for public schools of any State on the continent. In the pro- duction of corn and wheat it is advancing i apace with its population. hat may i we not expect of such a estate 7 " A TOUNoman calling himself William il. MoDinson, alios Ira brown, is traveling through the country representing him self to be the agent or proprietor of a pruning shears manufactory at Batavia, Ohio. There is no such establishment at Batavia, and Robinson is a swindler. Farmers and others should look out for him.

Special to the Ohio State Journal. Athens, June 29. Mr. G. W. Putnau, of Athens, went out into the country the other day to look after some sheep he naa pasturing on a colored man's farm some five miles from town. . While looking through the fields he made the discovery that the negro's cabin had been burned, and on going to it found the owner lying in the ruins almost burned to a cinder. He, however, ascertained that the man had been murdered, as his head, or what remained of it, had a bullet hole through it, and portions of his lower limbsshowed marks of an ax. It is supposed to have been done a week or ten days before the discovery. Strong suspicion rests upon certain parties in the immediate neigh borhood. An inquest was neiu, ana me ii rv returned a verdict in accordance with the above statement. . Ham nod Broom Corn Jlurned. Specia. to the Ohio State Journal. Lancaster, June 29.

No vote was taken on the bill submitted by M Lambert de Sainte Croix. The committee decided to draw up a constitutional bill of its own, and for that purpose appointed three commissioners, viz: M. Ventavon and Compte Daru, Monarchists, and M. Charles de Locombe, a Liberal Conserva tive. This selection shows that the per sonal SeDtenuate has triumphed, and neither the Septennate, Republic or definitive Republic have anything to hope from the committee of luirty. HPAIJt. CARLI3T VERSION OF THE ESTELLA FIGHT. Bavonne, June 29. The following ac count of the recent fight before tatella and the death of General Concha is de rived from Carlist sources : The Republicans made their first attack on the left bank ot the Itiver .ga ihurs- day, and followed it up on Friday, on the evening of which day they had forced the Carlists from their nrst line ot delense. The next day, Saturday, they tried to carry by assault the heights immediately commanding Estella. In the attack they failed and were driven back. Their re treat became a route, when General Concha was mortally wounded. The total loss of the Republicans in killed, wounded and missing is 4000. General hebaenea entire division nar rowly escaped capture, and was saved only by extraordinary exertions of the artillery. The assault waa made during the night, under cover of which the Re- DUblicaa succeeded in withdrawing an their cannon. THE OFFICIAL REPUBLICAN VERSION, Madrid, June 29. Official dispatches place the lose of the National troops in the engagement before Estella at 1500. General Concha, after taking Abarzuza, inarched directly opon Estella. He found the Carlists massed at Muno behind in trenchmenta, and a general charge was ordered. General Concha placed himself at the head of his troops, taking his po sition in the center ot his lirst line. While advancing rapidly with the entire line he received a ball in the chest, fell from his hor-e and died the instant he touched the ground. General Echngue then took command, and ordered the army to retreat to Ateiza, Sarraga, Ber-binzana, and Tofola. Serrano's energetic measures. ' Madrid, June 29 Evening. Marshal Serrano has just arrived in the city. Eighteen cannon have been dispatched to the Army of the North. The Government Is organizing fifty batteries for immediate service. The spirit of the army is still good. The body of General Concha will arrive here to-morrow and have an imposing funeral. POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF CONCHA'S DEATH. Paris, June 29. The death of General Concha is considered here an event of great political importance. It is believed Concha intended to proclaim Prince AI- phonso king as soon as the campaign against the Carlists was brought to a successful issue, and the Madrid Government deeply mistrusted him.

Prof. John Wise recently read a paper on Lightning and inunoernoiis oeiore the Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, in which he expressed the opinion, deduced from extended observations, that the lightning-rod is utterly useless as a protection from the thunderbolt. "If the rod," he remarked, "could do what is pretended, viz : draw the surcharge of electricity from the cloud silently, disarm it of its force by drawing it in silent stream to the point of the rod, not a bolt should ever descend upon a building in Philadelphia, with its thousands of rods peering toward the cloud-region." The only defense from thunderbolt, according to the Professor, that has yet been Droved efficacious, is the metal roof. The greatest damage done to a building thus protected is the perforation of the metal at the point where the bolt strikes; and this is, in the heaviest discharges, not over from a half to an inch In diameter. From a series of observations extending over a quarter of a century, the Professor has noted no difference in the mechanical effects of a thunderbolt striking buildings with or without rods, save that nearly all the cases of ignition were presented by buildings having lightning-conductors, A New Kind of Rock Breaker. A new grading machine of ingenious construction, and which acta with great power and efficiency, has been invented in England, its design being to reduce hard substances, such as rocks of granite, ailica and other materials, to a hnely pulverized state. The size of the mouth is twelve by five inches, and any stone of that size auicklv reduced Dy its action, ine moving jaw is swung from below on stout srosspin, to the two sides, and is made so that it has the greatest motion at the top. and the least motion at tne Dot torn. The toggles are worked irom an imward connecting rod, actuated by steel eccentric shaft, running in an anti friction metal bearing near the sole plate. The usual wedge motion and spring rod hrinirinff hack the iaw are supplied, and the whole mounted on a foundation plate. An improved mixing apparatus is attached, by means of which the stuff is immediately and thoroughly blended, as it is delivered from the spout. The New York Graphic concludes an editorial review of real estate prospects in these words: "Everything seems to indicate there is but one channel for a new speculative movement, and that real estate." - GRANITE MENTS. MONU- Explanation With Reference to their Importation and" Manufacture.' Orrics or tbb Cambbidub Cirr ) MABBLK AMD QBAN1TI WOBKB, CAHBaiDoa O.ti, Ind , June 20, 187. ) To the Columbus Public : ' ' . Having been engaged in the Granite and Marble business for the past eighteen years, and having some three years since formed an alliance with one of the largest and most reliable houses in Aberdeen, Scotland, in the manufacture of Scotch Granite Monuments, I have adopted a system of doing business that enables the people to purchase direct from the factory, the work being made expressly for them without the intervention of the third, (borth or fifth party. My intention is to open an office for the sale of this imperishable material in every city in the West, as fast as it is possible for me to do so. I find in nearly every place that I have opened an office, some dealer, who Is under the impression that he has the exclusive right to the trade in this particular line of goods in his neighborhood. This seems to grow on them till it becomes a disease and the disease becomes chronic. I have made it a rule, in all cases, to allow these self-constituted guardians of the public rights to advertise me to tleir heart's content without notice; but you have in your midst a' firm who exhibits the most violent type of this disease. They die hard. This firm is doing business under the name and style of J. A. Robey & Co. I do not pretend to know who the Co. is, and I do not care to. It is sometimes tacked to the end of a party's name for the purpose of covering up. In March last I opened an office in your city, Under the management of H. C. Hyre, for the purpose of furnishing the peopleof Columbus with a tound and per fect article in Scotch granite something they have never been able to secure from J. A. Robey & Co. If J. A. Robey & Co. wi II refer me to a single Scotch granite monument that they Jiave erected, that is not defective, I will withdraw this charge; but I have yet to see such a piece of work from their establishment. The ink had hardly become dry on Mr. Hyre's business card, until these guardians of public weal rush into print after the following style: No. 1. "firaniln and Marble Mnnnineuts. "a card to the public. "Certain parties, lately arrived in Columbus, are representing themselves as connected with foreign marble and granite works, and by a series of misrepresentations have induced a few people to purchase monuments that's what hurts J, A. Robey & Co.; they should have said a large number of monuments at prices far above what they can be bought for in Columbus manufactories. Instead of their prices being thirty three and one-third lower than ours, as they claim, they are twenty per cent, higher. We make this statement in order to protect citizens and others from imposition. How self-sacrificing! The good people of Columbus scarcely realize what a benefactor they have among them. And will say that all orders left with us will be filled at prices much below what these foreign agents rre charging. Signed "J. A. RoiiEY & Co. "April 18." After this flaming effort on the part of these public guardians to annihilate us, all nt their own expense, an unappreciating and ungrateful people still continue to patronize "Them Foreign AgenU." Base ingratitude I Some have gone so far as to visit the establishment of J. A. R. & Co. with designs, specifications and bids from "These Foreign Agents" to give the said J. A. R. & Co. an opportunity to take orders at the great reduction they speak of in Card INo. 1. The boast of these bloviators has proved an idle one. "These Foreign Agents carry on the work. J. A. K. & Co. look around again. Something must be done. They are losing their trade. Say J. A. R. & Co., "that card of ours should have cruiked 'Thetc Foreign Amnts.'" Instead of having had that effect, read this : "Wanted Ihe public to know that the branch office of the celebrated Scotch Granite Monumental Works, of Aber deen, Scotland, is permanently located here, and we are responsible lor wnat we say and do, il. U. HYRE, "Manager." The above contains nothing but faets, as J. A. R. & Co. will hnd out before they get through with us, the following card to the contrary notwithstanding : - No. 2. , "Wanted The public to know that the above statement Mr. Hyre's card is caculated to deceive the reader, as will be seen by the following letter, dated Glasgow, May 28, 1874, and addressed to A. Kobey dc (... (Joluuibus, Uhio. "As to the advertisement you inclose, we would say that there is no such brm in Aberdeen as the celebrated Scotch Granite works of Aberdeen. Signed " R. Cruikshank & Son." We happen to be personally acquaint ed with Messrs. R. Cruikshank A Son, having visited them at tlu-ir quiet little office in Glasgow. J. A. R. & Co. have furnished us, by the publication of this letter, a full and satisfactory reason why they erect the class or work they do, and why they cannot compete with us in price. R. Cruikshank & Son are monumental brokers in Glasgow, never having built a monument, but buying up and selling to small dealers who have never tasted salt water the class of work that J. A. Robey & Co. are handling. Tins they have a perfect right to do. Should J. A. R. & Co. desire to deal direct with a firm manufacturing Scotch granite monuments in Aberdeen, and that one of the most justly "eelvbrated Scotch granite vortt" in Scot land, if they will address myself or u. Leslie Jamieoon, Crown Uranlte Works, Aberdeen, Scotland, they will learn some thing that will be of future benefit to them. They will also learn that the cel ebrated Scotch Granite Works of Aber deen, represented by Mr. Hyre, is no myth. Should they desire further information if they will address an inquiry to the Cus tom House officials, Aew lork, they will learn that the undersigned, whom Mr. Hyre represents, is the largest importer of Scotch granite in the United Mates. Should they desire still further information, if they will confer with as privately, we will inform them why all the work they get from Scotland is defective. By pursuing a course of this kind they can be of snore benefit to the public (and we all know that the public need their advice) than by rushing so violently into print. Respectfully, J. W.
