would increase both her abilityand her
disposision to buy freely Of other for
sign Staples.
We note, therefore, with hearty
eradication, tie accounts which reach
us 10 our exchanges Of the building Of
Wooden factories in the West, Of cot
ton factories 10 tie South, and the es-
Enlistment OF new branches OF Man
ufacture in every part II The County.
Il is through such manifestations that
our Protective Tariff is TO perform It's
great worth Of rebuilding The prosper
ity Of the County, by opening new
sources and varieties Of employment,
and, by bringing the producer and
consumer much nearer together, in
crease the rewurd Of the former while
diminishing the cost to the latter. On
| ly let this policy be steadily persevefed
10, and the improvement in business,
or the demand for labor, and its Pro-
ducts, will be steady and certain.
Yet we are not expecting what is
called a season Of Prosperity in 1888.
We know that prices, whetherofLands
Of Products, or Of Labor, are and must
be low while our Currency remains as
contracted and imperfect as now; and
we would not have il expanded by any
sudden impulse. There will be few
great fortunes made rapidly this year
and we care not il never again. But
Of the real Prosperity which is exhib-
tied in steadily prosecuted, add expan-
ding Industry; in the erection Of bull
dings, the improvement Of lands, the
introduction of new arts and impro-
we'd processes, and the realization Of a
large aggregate return for the years
industry, we trust this year will not
be unfruitlul. For those heavily in
debt in proportion to their means, it
will be a hard year, as have several
before il; for those who can 6nd no
employment suited 10 their capacities,
or adequate to their support, it will al
so be hard; though we trust that both
the number and the privatons Of these
will be much diminished. We shall
be greatly disappointed if'43 does not
leave us as a people, in a decidedly
better condition than il found US.

CrRcuIT COURT, APRIL TErM, ls43'
We the Grand Jury for said State,
effected Empannelled, Sworn, and
enlarged, do make the following pre-
Sentiments, 10 wit:
We call most uryently the attention
ofthe community to an important sub
iect which has been brought to our
consideration, and one which in our
opinion, embraces too nearly The inter
es,s, The security and the harmony Of
all peaceful and respectable citizens TO
be passed over with a slight glance.
Through its baueful and noxious inAu-
ence, properly has been shamelully
and heaulessly sacrahced, whole fam
lilies have been impoverished, and the
quiet 6resides of all the honest and
law.abidiug portion Of the community
disturbed.
Il has been the practice for some
time past Of set Of sharpers who in
fest TIE community, and who reside
in Columbus, to search the records Of
Court for years back, hunt up deiunct
Judgements and Executions, and, un-
der filse pretences Of law, have them
levied upon the property Of individuals
whose occupations leave them no Tine
to suspect or guard against such COW
ert and perfdious acts Of swiudlIng. II
has not unlrequenlly been the case
that brides have been taken 10 suspend
these proceedings where the sufferers
have been averse TO the expense and
perplexitils Of lawsuit, and this still
more, we think, merits the censure Of
the people, and constrsins US TO pre-
sent them as nuisances of the most
odious and disgusting character. To
such an extent has this practice been
pursued, that properly, even when
regularly exposed to sale, will scarcely
bling Q third Of its value, for fear Of
some suspected flaw in the tile, pro-
duced by the Vaccinations and false
hoods Of these prying swindlers. Such
scandalops perversions Of the law
such disregard Of all moral and social
duties, and such violent Outrages Of
the peace aud dignity Of the commu-
nifty; call for strict and unmitigated
censure, wherever the parties may be
found-whelher in the ranks Of an
honorable pa ofesuoH, in the enjoyment
Of Offices, or in the common walks Of
life. Il is not deemed necessary al
this time to mention particular names,
The very existence Of such neiarious
proceedings, and the fact that the mat
Ter has been brought before the Grand
Jury on the authority Of honest and
credible Witnesses, together with this
public presentmenl, should serve to
direct the suspicious Of community ia
the risht quarter and fasten the odium
on those whose Conduct has deserved
liz. We have felt ourselves too sol
EMMY bound both by our Oaihs and the
strict charge Of His Honor, the Judge
to let a nuisance Of such monsTou:
extent pass our observation.
In conclusion, we beg leave to ten
der our best acknowledgements to Hi
Honor, the Judge, for the attention
he has shown US whilst in the dis
charge Of our duties, and to the Soil

MAN before he became established in the better
way" The character of rum-seller, his treat
ment of a drunkarJ, and his zeal for his master,
the devil has seldom if ever been portrayed in a
more mastery style by ,caking men, than We
have them in 'Stephen's Dream while the de-

poet could sketch them.
The twonty-,hree lines following the words,
"Now for life or death" are worth more than the
price of years subscription Of the Torrent to any
one who may have poetry enough in his compost
ton to appreciate them. The art Of the old enc

did not avail him. for the "cloven hoof," which
