RuNAwAy.-Some person was
careless enough 10 leave his horses
loose in front Of Meals Mil, last
Wednesday. when they got frightened
and made quick time out State street,
down Second to Court and out that
street, down the creek and away
over the hill, upsetting drays, wag-
ons, knocking over cows. but very
fortunately doing no other injury to
the persons on the streets than 10
frighten them. The like could
hardly happen again leaving as little
injury in its track. People cannot
be too cautious with their horses
They ought to recollect that such a
runaway puts in peril life as well as
property. There was another runa-
way on Saturday, but we hear oI
no damage on account Of it.

Macarthur Republican contains the
following relative to new furnaces:
Our friends, r. C. Hoffman and T..
R. Stanley, OF Jackson, and a Ports

erect a Furnace in this county
They will probably commence work
some time during he present month.
The exact location oil this Furnace
is not yet determined upon, but will
be, we are informed, in len or fifteen
DAYS.
An Athens company, OF capital
and experience, have it in contempla-

paay is abundantly able, and will
erect "Nest Egg Furnace" Sue

Archbishop Purcell, OF Cincinnati,
has published a letter addressed 10
"Roman Catholics and all whom it
may concern," on the School ques-
ton. He complains because the
Catholic population Of the State can
not have their portion OF the school
fund to appropriate as they shall
think proper. We should be glad to
present the letter 10 our readers, but
its length forbids. We should like to
have them see what is claimed by the
Catholics, and the grounds of the
claim.

The CRow.BAR LAw.-This bantliEg
of Ohio Locofocoism is likely to come
before the U. s. Supreme Court, and
have its legality tested. The Treasurer
entered the Banks of Cleveland, un.
locked the vaults and took, in bills, the
amount of the tax and poundage, $751;
981, and deposited the same in the safe
of an Insurance Company. The same
day a Mr.. J. G.. Deshler, of Buffalo,
called on the Treasurer, and demanded
the money as his property, showing at
the same time an assignment by which
the banks had made over to him (Desh-
ler) the entire amount. On the Treass
urer refusing to deliver up the bills, Mr..
Deshler sued out writ of Replevin in
the United States Supreme Court of
Ohio, and the money was handed over
to him, on his giving $4,000 bond
TO await the action of the Court. This
crow-bar law provides that bills so taken
by the Treasurer shall be sold, instead
of being paid over in satisfaction of the
tax. As we understand the matter, the
whole question of the constitutionality
of this tax law thus comes up before the
Supreme Court.

SINGULAR PHENoMENoN.-T h e

shower of rain in that vicinity a
