VALUABLE FARM
8 o. a LRAsR % FoUR YEARs.

Z
That well known farm. situated at North
Bend, in the State Of Ohio, is offered for
rent for four years from the 9TH Of March
1871. The present occupant, General
William Henry Harrison, being about to take
lease from the people for the "White
House, at Washingt ton, isdesiTous to letsaid
farm upon reasonable terms to some good,
practicable farmer. The land is situated in
the Far West. but owing the the galIantry of
its present occupant, in former times, no
fears need now be entertained of being dis
Itnrbed by the Indians. The owner would.
object to the cultivation of such fancy af-
fairs as the Mulberry and Rose bushes. and
also insist that the good, old and substan-
tial grains, such as corn and rye be raised.
The land being well adapted to the culti-
vatinn Of cabbages, Mr.. Van Buren, will be
entitled to the first refusal. There are no
hickory upon the place. Should Van Bu-
lren engage the premises he can be accom-
modated with sDeeping willow grove, in
one corner of the farm, as place ofsolita-
ry resort. The fences are all straight, and
! should the above gentleman take the lease,
he WI be Strictly forbidden not to tear them
1 down for the erection Of the old zig gag.

Application may be made TO Daniel Web
ster, Boston; Nicholas Biddle, Philadelphia;
1 Henry Clay, Lexington, or the old farmer
j himself 1T North Bend.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING AT BATH.

DEMOCRATIC MEEllNG a baih.
The Democrats and all others summoned
with great flourish oftrumpets to attend at Bath,
on Monday last and hear the genuine loco foco doc
,rines expounded by tho Honorable FELIX GRusDY.
the Hon. FRANCIS THOMAS, and several others
Messrs Grundy and Thomas alone got TO hand.
The assemblsge of people very small, con
sidering the means that had been used to secure
large AUDIENCE and we imagine that full moety
of those who attended, were drawn Ihither, by
port, ,ha. the Buckeye Blacksmith, would be pre-
sent and reply to the Loco focos. The estimates of
the number, ranged from two to six hundred. Our
own estimate was four hundred which we are sure
was full one. Mr.. GRuSpY, however, in the open
ing of his speech, called the gathering ca" assem-
blase and we suppose that must se;tle the point Of
the numerical force.
Henry BrDISeER, ESQ, successiVey introdu-
ced the speakers, accompanying the introdaction
with few eloquent remarks, in praise oil their
bilities and dsinierested devotion to the cause
Mr.. GRusDY attempted to be extremely pathetic
upon the occasion of reysiting the place OF Bis ma
,iyi,y, and was struck all Of sudden with great
for thirty years and more he has been in the habit
Of passing, his way to and from the seat of CO.
vernment, within a stones throw Of his native coun-
ty without ever before thinking it worth whlle to
make visit. He spoke quite cleverly for about
two hours, but treated of topics novel remark
able. He spoke with respect Of Gen. HARRIsoS,
and declared that he had spoken of him pretty mush
in the same way, at the Baltimore Convention, for
which he said he had been abused BY an indignation
meeting at Cincinnati, by the Wing press through
out the country, and "5y lille newspaper np in
MartiHsburg."
Mr.. THOMAS spoke about On hour and hall, d.
recting his remarks mainly TO the ub-rreasury.
The whole affair was rather fiat, and there was
manifest disappointment and modification at the
diminu,ve number of the audience.
Mr.. GRuNDY, on his return passed through Mar
sinsburg, and delivered address in the Court
House, on Tuesday evening. We we're no, present,
but from the reports have heard OF it, il was
much the same thing heard in Bath. The story
was repeated yesterday in SheSherds,own, from
which point, presume he turnsd his face toward
Washington, mortified with the reflection that the
people of the Mountain district we're not quite a.
green as he had supposed.
After the conclusion OF his speech in Msr.insburg
Capt. JoHS STRiDER, OF Jefferson. addressed tho
People, from stand erected in front Of the Court
House. in reply We were not present, but have
heard the opinion generally expressed, that lie sat
isfactoriIy refuted all the charges made by Mr.
GKusDy, against the Whigs, and carried ths Wal
into Africa, with some effect.

MR.. GRUNDY-THE STANDING ARMY.
This gentleman, during bis remarks in the Court

his country he had quite forgotten to do so,

lions connected herewith "a task that ought to be
a pleasure to Freemen, Wherefore,
Resolped, That we deem it appropriate TO cele-
bra,e the day By BaI bacue, &o.--and to this end,

what number will unite with US in the same.
Under the above resolution, w. A. Sommervlle,
