from the Worcester Egis is well worthy
the attention Of the friends of Mr.. Thomp-

"A gentleman who came over with this

reports that Thompson during the passage
did not conceal that one of his purposes in
visiting this country, at this time. was to
promote the dissolution ef the American
Union!"
If this fact was known at Boston at the
time Thompson undertook to speak there
it is not to be wondered at that there wa.

New County Project.

Since the disunion of old Geauga, Char
don, its ancient county seat, has been
standing on its outer limits, far away from
its geographical or business center. There
is now a movement on foot to establish
the county seat at Burton, the home OF the
FoRDs and HlTeHeocKs-men who have
always ruled that county, as with rod OF
iron. This is opposed by the Chardonists,
and as an offset or counter project, propose
to give Lake two or three townships on
the north; take May field, Orange, and So
lon from this county, Twinsburgh from
Summit, and Aurora and Mantua from
Portage; making the county seat at Cha
grin Falls, a much better selection every
way, than Burton, If this is done. we
shall ask Mortified from Summit, and
Columbia from Lorain, to give us our full
dimensions and fair proportions. Such a
change in Geauga would not only better
accommodate that county, but greatly ben
eft this city. 1t would throw the five
counties Of Lake Gsauga, Summit, Cuya-
hoga, and Lorain into straight edged and

The Sandusky County Democrat, in
speaking of the death of Mr.. Wood, closes
its remarks with the following brief histo-
ry Of his life and character:
Mr. WooD was born ut Ellisburgb, JEFF
ferson CON Y, June I'd, 1901. In 1925
his father emigrated to Ohio, and settled
with hls family in Streeisborough Portage
TO. where they remained eight years, du.
ring which time Mr.. Wood was for near
two Y ears q member The family of Hon
Reuben Wood. In 1888 he removed TO
Woodville, Sandusky Co. which township
was named after the Wood family.
MIR. Wood was twice elected TO the
House of Representatives, and once to the
Senate Of Ohio In 1849 he was elected
to Congress to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the death of Hon, R. DICKINSON, who
had been elected TO second term upon
which he had not entered During the
long and laborious session Of last winter
and summer, Mr.. WooD discharged the
duties of his station with honor 10 himeelf
and satisfaction to- his constituents. tle
had great industry, perseverance and good
hea rledness, and these qualifications were
ever OF the command Of the people, whose
servant he recognized himself to be. ble
was democrat of the most answering
and radical kind. --as4 ~
AMOS E. WooD was a friend we valued,
and we mourn his loss; but it is not eur
design to present eulegy on his life and
character. Nevertheless, in some points,
We desire to hold up his example for imlta-
ton before the youth of The land. Born
of industrious and intelligent, but poor pa
rents, bred in what at The time was the
backwoods- lacking what would now
be considered the comnoneSt advantages
in education and opportunities for mixing
with society and procuring practical
knowledge of 1.-THE World" yet he raised
himself to high social and political d;stinc-
ton, and greatly endeared himself TO the
masses Of the people wherever he was
known. In addition he amassed hand.
some property, without compromising his
reputation for integrity os business man.
He was neither great nor brilliant, but
| sagacieus and clear sighted man. His
strongest point was honesty-his second,
ndustry-lhild, perseverence-fonrth, ear
nestness. He could neither be bribed no r
brow.beaten from the path of rectitude and
principle; labor was necessity of his nu-
ture, un,iring zeal and energy and an
earnest belief in the right and practicable.
ty of whatever he undertook, appeared to
90 hand in hand in his mental and moral
composition. These qualities made him
practical, effective man, and enabled him
not only to gain the affection of the people
generally, but to outrun many competitors
superior to himself both in natural abilities
and acquired accomplishments. Unexcep-
tonable morals and the strongest affection
for relations, and friends, were additional
traits of character in Mr.. Wood, which
are worthy of cultivation by all.
Our deceased friend was cut off sudden.
ly, in the prime of life, and in the midst
of his usefulness. The loss to his former
constituents is great, to his family irrepar.
able. May we emulate his virtues and
forget his faults.
