THE KIND OF A NOTICE AN OHIO MAN BUYS FOR ONE DOLLAR.

To day I was silting at the reporter’s table in the House, when a tall, lean, lank individual leaned over and whispered in my ear : ‘ Give me a ketch in the morning?’ ‘Give you a what ?’ ‘ Give me a ketch give me a touch for a dollar. I will see you after awhile and hand you the money,’ and he walked off. It was G. i,L. Turton, a man from Miamisburg, Montgomery County, who has been up here lobbying for Perkins’ (School Bill, and association with the lobby of the Consolidated Widows and Orphans Bill has demoralised him. Two days’ stay here has led him to believe that he can buy statesmen here for a dollar and a quarter a cord, and get newspaper men thrown in for a dollar apiece. I told him he should have a little touch for a dollar. At dinner, 1 was sitting at a desk in the Neil House, writing, when Colonel L Turton came up, laid a dollar bill on the table and mysteriously said —‘ There’s that little peonine. fix me up. Fix me in the morning. Just give me three or four lines. Say I’m a sound Democrat, and a promising young lawyer of Miamisburg, and that I am all sound ou the goose now. I kin depend ou you, kin I ? and here’s the mon ” —and off he went, leaving me the sole and happy possessor of a torn one-dollar bill. —The Notice —Mr Turton is a young lawyer. Mr Turton is from Miamisburg. Mr Turton is a Democrat. Mr Turton is sound on the goose. Mr Tun on probably escaped from the Dayton Asjlum. Mr Turton would make as strong a candidate for AttorneyGeneral as the Democrats can put up. He knows the value of men. He commands a unanimous support in the Miami Valley. Children sit on the fences down there and cry for Turton. Long live Turton ! Turton and victory ! Turton and a one-dollar bill ! Turton forever, and d—n be he who first cries, ‘ Turton, enough !’—Pickaway, in the Cincinnati Enquirer.”
