SCHOOL ExAMlNATIoN.-On Friday lust,
we attended the Examination, at Mr.. Giles
Academy. We were surprised TO find SO
few Of our citizens in attendance. Mr.. g.,
we understand, has been laborng here,
faithfully and efficiently, for four years, to
build up school which shall be an honor
TO The town. How he has Jared, pecuniurily,
we know not; but this we know: he has
utterly failed TO awaken that interest among
our citizens in behalf Of his undertaking,
which it justly merits, and without which It's
Permanency, prosperity, and usefulness are
endangered. in the forenoon, less Than q
dozen visitors were present, and some ol
these were from the country. In the after
noon, during the most interesting part Of the
exercises, the small school.room was moi
half filled. Need we be surprised, then, il
we find lack of energy, life. and anima.
lion, in pupils as well as insiructorsl Our
only surprise was to find so much yet in
existence. If citizens desire 10 see this en-.
'erprise fail, they have only 10 continue
these manifestations Of ukewarmness. The
school may he kept in existence by money,
and be very quiet and orderly sohool--ex.

which may beset them, wha, will they be

The GREAT FORGERY TRIAL.-We were
in Cincinnati, and heard the greater part Of
the evidence on the trial Of Kissane and
Findley. Ii was The most extraordinary
trial we ever Witnessed. Judge Finn, who
occupied The bench appeared even more
anxious for the acquiual Of the prisoners
than their own counsel. The greatest ex.
ciIemen. prevailed throughout. The city, and
we had some fears that violence would be
resored 10 by The populace. So deep and
bitter is the feeling against the Judge, that
if he cannot be impeached, an effor' will
be made TO abolish the court. We have
not space in our columns for detailed &C.
count Of the trial. Both Kissane and Find.
ley were convicted. The latter escaped
and, al last accounts had not been re,aken
Kissane's counsel applied for new trial
with what success we have moi heard.

rises she will again ply in the Pomeroy and

The COLUMBUS AND Hooking VALLEY
RAlLRoAD,-We see by our exchanges that
company has been organizedfor The pur.
pose of building this highly important road,
and books Of subscription have been opened
at Columbus, Lancaster, Logan, Nelsonville,
Athens, Lithopolis, and Winchester. 1t is
thought that the citizens Of Pomeroy will
be best accommodated at A,hens. We fear,
however, that our citizens will be so busily
engaged at home, they will no, have time
to visit Athens for the purpose of investing
their surplus capital in this enterprise. The
books will remain open until the 25th OF
August Proximo. The capital stock is fixed
a. two millions Of dollars, and in order 10
effect a full organization OF the Company
under,he general corporation law All actual
subscription OF 10 per cent. is necessary.
