The Way TO GET RIcH-The only way By
which capital can increase is by saving. II
you spend as much as you get you will neve!
be richer than you are. 'Tis not what a man
gets, but what he saves that constitutes his
wealth. Go, learn the first two rules of arth
metic-learn addition and subtraction. Add
to your present capital any amount you please
subtract the sum which you add, and tell me il
the last amount will not be the same as the
| first. Every merchant should, in every yeaI
OF his life, make some addition to his capital
You say you get but little, never mind; spend
less than that little, and then next year, you
will get more, for you save. There is no roy
al road to wealth any more than TO geometry.
The man who goes on spending all he gets and
expects that by some lucky hit he shall be rails
ed TO wealth, will most likely sink into power
Ity-for, into cases of adverse fortune, he ha,
then no resource; whereas by economy, he
may lay by a stock that may serve as provis
ion in case of adversely. A man saws that the
| times are bad-the seasons are bad-the laws
are bad. Be il so; but, were the case rever-
sed, it would make no difference to you. Look
at home; you spend more than you get; how
can you be otherwise than poor? How MANY
a respectable family have fallen from high
station, which they worthily aud honoraby
filled, because neither the gentleman nor the
lady had been familiar with the first four rules
of arithmetic. Had they known how TO check
the accounts of their agents, their tradesmsn,
and their servants; had they known how to
compare their recripts with their expenditure
and to see which preponderates, all their diff
culties might have been avoided. A very small
acquaintance with the principles of commerce
is sufficient to teach that, if man spends ev-

MURDER fN CosHocToN CoUNTY-The citi-

TO the greatest excitement on Thursday morn

deliberate murders ever recorded. Between 6
husband boarded at Jones Hotel, in Roscoe,
was engaged in washing, and German, who
was hostler, and who calls himself John Thos.
Carhart, was requested by the landlady to
bring water for Mrs. Wades. He brought
some, and in few minutes some one CHANGED
to 60 into the room where Mrs. Wades had
been occupied. and discovered blood on the
floor. Search being Immediately made, she
was found in cistern in the same room.
Upon getting the body from the cistern, she
was found TO have received deep wound up
ON the left side of The neck, which must have
killed her instantly. An axe was foud near
BY with blood upon it, whichappeared TO have
been partially wiped off, Carhart was soon
found at work in the barn, with some blood
upon his clothes, and upon one place on his
pantaloons were traces of blood, evidently
wiped from some instrument, and which had
been partially washed off. Blood was also
found on fork in the barn, as from the hands
Carhart was immediately lodged in Jail, and
denies the commission of the murder Mr..
Wades had lately opened a drug store in Ros-
coe. and Mrs. Wades had been there only three
or four days. She was from this county, a
daughter of Mars Wagar, of Rockport, whilh-

LocoFoco PRrpIcTIoNs.--The Union, true to
the brag policy adopted by the Enquirer in
1910, has already commenced to ''brag. boast
and bluster,' in regard to the Presidential cleo
ton:
As an evidence of how little reliance is to
be placed, upon its calculations, 1t is only nec-
essary 10 refer TO the Enquirer of September
%, 40, which thus adverted to the election
then pending--"Mr. Van Buren will certainly
get the vote of New York, and he must be
elected or liberty is in danger New York is

sdered fool Tho doubts it. We claim for
Mr.. Van Buren,. Pennsylvania. Maryland,

destined to be elected. General Harrison can
not be certain of more than 60 woes"
Those, therefore, who In "making up their
betting book" rely upon the representation OF
the Union, may learn from the above, what re-
lance is TO be placed upon its predictions, ev-

ed upon 10 address the impatient crowd.
Like true soldier never avoiding duty
---he sprung right upon the hoor,. ,.--his
arms and hands elevated in the position
naturally assumed by one, who feels a
consciousness of vast responsible
ty resting upon him. and as if each word,
that might fall from his lips, would
be caught and treasured as proceeding
from those ofan oracle. He went off in
his own peculiarly felicitous style, =. using
to the best advantage, his full manly voice
and clear annunciation, accompanied, !,
in the strictest artistical harmony, by his
cultivated and faullless gesticulation.
The only thing to be regretted, as maring
the elegance and brilliancy of the per-
formance, is. that the 'hot haste" of his
impassioned eloquence drove him into
frequent 6sticuffs with Dr. Syntax.
O!ifyou only could have seen that face
of his, -.-ordinarily so smooth and comely,
and bearing countenance beaming with
benignity and love towards his fellows,---
now so distorted aud unnatural, from
mere mental exertion and agony, you
would have believed, for the moment, as
did those who witnessed it. fol worry sym
pathy forthe sufferer, that he had nothing
but the good of his country in view, for
which he had fought on bloody fields, on
far-of. foreign climes, and not, for one in
stant, the Prosecutorship of old Fairfield.
He told, in strains of sweet and flow
ing eloquence, how he marched the army
in Mexico, over mountains and through
valleys and chapperal, surrounded by
dangers sufficient to strike terror through
the souls of men of less courage and
prowess than himself. He had however,
like the Father Of his country, escaped
unhurt; and when wars alarms were DER,
he like Cincinnatus, had returned TO his
farm, to await the call of his countrymen!
He was overcome by sense of the me-
cessity of throwing himself, body and
mind, into the present political struggle,
exhibiting as he had no doubt he would
a happy and harmonious union of rare
civic and military genius. His heart
swelled with the emotions of duty, and
he felt it would be worse than desertion,
in one so fitted to influence and sway his
fellow-men, to falter or remain inactive.
Thus qualified for high deeds, and
stimulated, by the irresistible impulses
of lofty patriotism, to the discharge of
his whole duty, he exclaimed, with De-
mosthenian vehemence of voice and ac.
tion,---"I have put on my sword and ar.
NOR, and shall never lay them down, un-
til the last Federalist is dead and buried,
and Democratic requiem sung over his
gravel"

niGs; give him the kindly benefits of the

LANCASTER. OHIO;
Friday Morning, August II, Is4s
COmgrcssiomlI Non,imaliom.


By the proceedings, in another column,
it will be seen that our present able and
efficient Congressman has been nomina.
ted by the late District Convention as
Candidate for re. election.
We are gratifed at the result of the
deliberations of the Convention. Dr..
EDWARDS has proved himself worthy
representative ot his constituency and in
all things has faithfully expressed their
principles and measuresby his efforts and
votes in the present session of Congress.
A young member, he has won the con.
hdence and esteem of his associates, and
while he has reflected the views and feel.
ings of those who sent him, he has very
properly refrained from consuming time
ny embracing every opportunity to gain
the floor to make speeches, contenting
himself by the faithful performance of
his duty as an efficient working member.
We need more such members there.
With fewer speeches and harder work,
much time would be saved, the sessions
OF Congress would be shortened and the
public money less lavshIy squandered
ltis hardly necessary to recur particu.
larly to the course of Dr. Edwards. How.
ever, we wish to say word on subject,
which at the present time, fills large
space in the public mind. We refer TO
the subject of free soil. While we feel
perfectly willing to abide by the COM
promises ofthe Constitution aud grant all
the tights allowed by that instrument to
our sister States, interfering with their
peculiar lnstitulions"in no respect what.
ever'yet we claim that neither politically
Iorsoclally are we bound to assist in exten.
ding the area ofslavery, and as friends of
freedom should resist every attempt to
spread its blighting influence over terrific,
ry nowtree.
When called upon, DR. Edwards has
not hesitaied to cast his vote against the
extension of slavery. and we find him,
both in the Compromise Bill and the
Oregon Bill, standing up for northern
rights, free states. aud free territory. In
this we are confident that he has faithful.
ly represented the feelings ofthe citizens
OF this district, of both parties.
There was no opposition to bis course
and none to his nomination. There were
other prominent men Of the district pre-.
sented by their friends, to the Conven.
'ion; but when it was discovered that a
decided majority desired the nomination
OF DR.. Edwards, all cheerfuly acquiesced
in the decision.
The Wings Of Fairfield have now a
dutyto perform. Their favorite Candi.
date has been selected aud they owe their
brethren OF the other counties of the dis.
irict handsome poll for DR.. Edwards.
Let it be given aud we are assured that
these will perform their whole duty and
something more.

New Telegraph Line.

A project is now under discussion a.
mong tho citizens of the towns interes-
ted, for Telegraph Line from Athens to
Columbus. The distance from A. to G.
is 73 miles, and the cost of the line will
be about $1,000. New Offices would
probably be established in Logan, Ian.
caster and Lithopolis. These towns are
now without any Telegraphic connection,
and the proposed line would better ac.
commodate them than any olher---as it
would not only connect them with Co
lumbus, and the lines converg;ng to that
point, but would connect at Athens with
the Baltimore and New Orleans Line.
We should suppose that Lancaster alone
would at once subscribe the whole amount.
1t is not as heavy subscription for that
place as $4,000 for Athens, and that is
the amount subscribed by A. in the B.
and N. o, Line.--- Marietta htelligeacer.
We here have another proof the old
adage-"Go away from home for news"
