splendid premiums will soon be decided,
and those who desire to secure one Of the
prizes, must be expeditions in his work,
They viii be decided July lst, and paid over
to the successful Agents Immediately. As
yet there is not enough competition for
them to justify Us, but the offer has been
made and we have no wish 70 retract but
We certainly anticipated a very large acces-
sion to our list Of patrons As tits, we shall
have very respectable list of fpatrOns at the
expiration of the time, and better one than
any other published in Ohio, religious or Sc,
cular, caters to. We are content, and thank
our friends for what they have already done
and what they will yet do-whether any
more premiums are offered or not. All who
have lists in their possession, and who desire
to compete for the prizes, would do well to
forward them Immediately.

Co., Tenn. SOU for Organ.
Bro. j. H. Hamilton, Circleville, o., 50
for Organ. In his letter containing the re-
mittance, Bro. H. says:
"These are the only subscribers for the
Organ in Harrison Township, Plckaway Co.,
and l am in hopes that the introduction of
these, will create call for more. have
thought that Except Circleville) no town
ship in the County was more cursed with
grog shops than Harrison besides, it is in
this township is located one of the largest
Distilleries in the SciOto Valley. We have
opened the campaign against them, and ex-
pect to battle hard for the victory The in
terest in the county upon the subject, is on
the increase. Our indefatigable Brother
Green, is doing noble work in different
parts of the county. think some are
raising up that will second his efforts and
assist in pushing forward the glorious
work. We will report progress from time
to time in connection with remittances and
subscribers. "

ision, Edinburg, o., S4 for Organ. The Bro.
gives good account of the cause in his
locality. They are all right.
Bro. P. s. Sage, Allensville, Switzerland
Co., Ind, ST. for Organ. Bro. S. says, he
likes to encourage independent papers in
all moral and political questions, and that

sometime since because of our defense of
the common school system.

many Temperance people up here but they
would rather make cheese and get thu
dollar for it, than 10 take a Temperance
paper. | hope there will be revival in thu
ranks of Temperance here. There ought t.
be. / sometimes think that Dollars ant
Cents have deeper hold on the mind
of some professed Temperance men, thai
the cause of Temperance. By their fruit
ye shall know them. They can add farm t.
farm, and loan money at 10 per cent. bu
few only can afford to spend dollar for

We have no right to complain for wan
