I We always thought it a good idea to take notes of anything we hear or soo^hat is news. i it fixes it better la tho memory, for in this way a person seems to save something fof bis time in hanging around, and I do not think I would be iluing tiic readers of-the Pi.ux- OEALKR justice it I did not tell tiiera what I liaard in regard to the conversation made public two weeks age. There to a good deal Of mystery about eavesdropping, and some people believe that it is awfnlly mean, if not actually devilish to do it. I have heard folks say "I wouldn't be an eavesdropper for all the world." [ will stmply wty thai If Gard and Emery had not talked so loud and the broken glass in the letter box had been repaired I should not have heard what was said, and should have lieon unable to furnish this truth­ ful account. It is not easy to stand in the postdfflce for an hour, ostensibly waiting for mail, and catch every word that may be ut­ tered in the back part of iha office without being detected; so if we misrepresent either of tho gentlemen we would be pleased to ascertain the fact at a* early period. We would like to make the correction exceeding­ ly, and would feel that we had not lived and lied in vain. What attracted my attention in the beginning was an exclamation from the Postmaster; he had been reading the conver­ sation in ttie PLAIN DEALER and Jumping up he struck his left breast a violent blow which gave torth a hollow sonnd and got off some talk garnished with brim-ctony expreseious which I don't care about repeating, I heard htm say: "The unprincipled, ignorant, hun­ gry hound must have had his ear to the key­ hole all the #hile we were talking; I would just like to have patched the red-eyed son-of-- a-gun with his ear resting on my door knob, I w»uld have transformed him; don't I wish I know who It was! (Jin-ml Rut Emery there 'is no use of disguising the fact. Matters are waxing hot and there is a public opinion being created on this subject that bodes ho good to von. KMKRT-I AM awaro of that fret. It Is a sad truth, sad beyond expression. It is not tiecanse the people do not like me; I am popu­ lar #ith all the boys, bnt it is this opposition to the principle of keeping one ra.tn in office year after year that iscausing all this trouble and now our conversation on that point being made p<;b!io will not help the matter any. UARO-That is so. my friend, I would not have had my views thus given to the public for a very large amount of money. It will give activity, elevation and conspicnity to the whole movement, whereas It would have re­ mained inert, depressed and undistinguished; is soon as tiie people it now that I am inward­ ly impressed that Morse is entitled to the office I am afraid there will be no restraining them. Hi>w would it do to say in the fkntinel that the whole business was made out of men of straw awl of i>ours<> easily slain. EMKRV--That would be a very able refuta. tlon of it; it is mild and conciliatory in man­ ner, and Arm and decided in the <|iiestion at issue. It would l»e unanswerable and yet conld not be misunderstood. It won't do to deny the thing as the I'e'low might come ont with an atBdnvit, ilien we would be gone. Your suggestion is a goo<l one; evade the question by asserting that it is not worth do- fending aud say that It was gotten up to in- j ii re me. ^ARD--I will either do that or say nothing. I think, on the whole, nothing is the best, "there is no controverting tne fact that any man should be allowed a monopoly of a public office; no testimony can i<e adduced to show thit it is best to allow it, and the proposition that no other person can be found except you to All the office successfully can not, of course be mainiuined. If it were not for the f.ict Uiat 1 am under obliirations to yon 1 would lay in my paper that every good citizca ought to resolve on one thing: to give no conntenanco to third.terinf*m and fearlessly ami decidedly to rebuke any man or set of men engaged in perpetuating it. I would say let there be an en I to it, ir tlioie Is not; md If there is not now a rising up Inlinwonted strength and unanimity of action on tlio part of the voters ;o stirk to it we shall live bitter, ly to regret it. [Sensational applause]. Kow the real tost is to eoino whether one person can settle himself In tho best ofl|co in the county and retain it term after toriu, reaping a large salary from the public, or whether as of old It shall b > passed around. If in the coming election Ihcliards is el«*e*oil to a third term then truly we h»ve no furthef hope iu the direction of maintaining the Republican party#in p«wer. It will break upon the minds of the people that a few men have firmly seated themselves in power and that the peo. pie nre altogether unable to remove them. Rvory true friend of the Republican |tart.v, who has its interests at heart, should feel tlie importance of the coming struggle and do the utmost with liimsf If and others to brlngabout the iefeat of Richards. Let there be an end to third-termism. That's what I would ssy. ••Rut," said Emery. GAKD-- SO "but" about it; that is what I would say if I was honest with my readers and honest with myself. EMKRY-Gard, I am astonished at yonr elo qner.ee, and I am not such a* toril as not to know that snch a course would be right. I have told you myself that you did not make the Sentinel tho paper you ought; that you were pursuing a course utterly incondstent with your clirislUn profession, Nat urally you would rather l»e right than wrong, but physi. ea'.ly you are unable to b^ so; that is the case with me. I know I ought to step ai-ide, but before any conviot ons and resolutions have time to ripen into action, the love ot office re­ gains its asccndancy. I am not afraid of you; you are in my power, and I propose to keep you there. You want the postofllcc for a third term, and therefore you can not oppone moon that ground. Let me remind you ot an old proverb: ••I'h.-siciau. heal thyself." GARD--Enough! more than enough. We are in the stme boat and must sink or swim to. get her, the past is a pledge for the lutnre; 1st us be friends and co-laborers in this contest.

If you were to stand directly iu front of and facing Master George Rehn. you would never mistrust that there w'as anything strange or pecular about his physical structure, but If you were to step to his side you could have * plain view of his wonderful and strange physical constructure.
