a Speck Of War.

The citizens of Erie, in Pennsylvania.
are in a state of great excitement on ac-
count OF a proposition by the Lake Shore
Railroad Company to change the gauge at
that place so that the present delay and incon-
venience arising from different guages may
be avoided. The alterations Is about to be-
made under the authority of an act of the
last Pennsylvania legislature; but the peo-
pie of Erie are determined TO resist the
change sat all hazards and to the last ex-
temity." They held a meeting on tho
10th inst, and passed resolutions which the
Post says, ''amount to arenk nulliicatio' ,,
and arr likely to lead to an open war;
They say the law was procured by bribery
and corruption, and is not binding on them.
They are determined TO tear up the Railroad
at all points where it crosses the streets Of
the city Of Erie. The council met the same
evening, and ordered tie hish:con$tabe to
tear up the rails, and made it the duty Of
every citizen to aid i'll the work when cal
led on, under penalty Of FIVE dollars, and
imposing " penalty Of 100 for resisting the
order. Truly they have stirring times in
Erie. We hope the matter will be settled
without bloodshed! = WuSA. Union

in CarrOlltOn, on "Wednesday and Thu slay,
October 10Th and Goth, The arrangements
for the Fair, are gotten up in the best style.
One hundred and ten dollars are contributed
by gentlemen of Caryollton, to be awarded to
the ladies for the best specimen of female e.
questrianism. Over one hundred ladies'

constitute the Committee for awarding this
premium. Those from Cadiz are-Miss
Mary Taggart, Miss Mary Dewey, Miss Ma

Cannot something be done in this county,
to make the coming Fair attractive? there
can, if some men of energy take hold oil
the matter. To depend On the officers OF
she Harrison county agricultural Sosiety is
useless; for as general thing, they are Il
set Of old ;ogies, who never made one sd-
vancing step IN their lives. Every county
around Us Is trying to do something that
will make their fairs have one attractive fea.
lure at least, we mean specimens of female
equestrianism. Two or thee hundred dol
lars could be raised Ior this purpose, in this
county, if the mater is only taken in hand
We know this because have heard some
gentlemen say they would give twenty dol
lars each for this purpose. We say to the
young men, so to work, raise the funds, APP
point the committee; and if the society. will
not assist you, act independent of them,

will turn out to be grand fzze. For the

to make our fair complete, is action and en-

Cassvillc, O.
N ew Pavements.

We understand that our eonnci, intend
in few days, to pass an ordinance in rela-
ton to the pavements in Cadiz. This is
something that is needed, and if they will
have the ordinance strictly enforced after it
is passed, they will receive a good many
hearty thanks from our citizens. Tt might
be well for those who own property in town
to attend to having pavements made, or
those that are made, and which are out of
order, repaired Immediately. This would
save our excellent Marshall some trouble ,fol
he enlorces all ordinances that are passed
by our town council.

The Declaration Of Free Soil
Candidate forced into the
Light

The Cleveland True Democrat OF Wed
nesday says:
ave are desired by Judge Bissel to say
that he is no: nor cannot be candidate for
Lieutenant Governor ON the Free Democrat
ticket" tEc
The Democrat adds: at will be remem-
beIed that Judge Bissel declined the nomi-
nation Immediately after it was made, Our
friends" the democrat continues, "thought
/; best, however. not to accept it, and hence
kept the name on the ticket"
We werenot unprepared for this move
nnenE on the part Of our Free Soil oppo.
nents. The Lieutenant Governor as Pres.
ident Of the Senate, has the casting vote in
ease ofa tie, and the signs have shown the
intention Of that party toplay into the hands
ofihe wings by casting their vote for Allen,
the wings nominee. Whether the peremp-
Tory refusal of Bissel to allow his maize
louyer to be used, after his refusal to be
candidate had been communicated, will
blow the coalition Or expedite it, are facts
which the future must test. Of one thing
we are certain, and that is, intrigue and
prafigacy in political matters will not be
