WASN'T SHE SruNKY?-A couple who
had lived together for some years in seem
ing contentmcit one day went fishing, and
tied their boat by rope 10 post in the wa

down the stream, and a contest of words i'm
mediately arose as 10 the real cause Of the
parting Of the rope.
The wife said it must have been cut with
the scissors, but the husband, an unreeline
old Iogy, stoutly maintained that it was q
knife that done The business. Scissors! said
the wife. knife! said the husband. Scis-
sors, knife, scissors, knife, said both; but a,
last the husband, losing his temper, cried
out:
IF you say scissors again, Ill duck you.
Scissors! said the wife, determined to hold
out to the last
Away went the old woman into the we
ter, and as she came up the first time, she
beloved Scissors!' at the top of her voice
Tho old man pushed her down again.
Scissors! sputtered she, in fainter tones
as she rose again, but tie old fellow had her
by the head, and plump she went down for
the third time. Now she rose more slowly
and as her waterlogged form neared the
surface, having lost the power of arlicula.

thrust her hand out of the water, and imita-

The old man was then convinced that il
was useless to try and fetter womans
speech.

Prospectus of tie Wyandot Pioneer.
IN view Of the rapidly improving condition Of
The county of Wyandot and town of Upper
Sandusky, aud for other reasons not ncces-
sary TO bementioned, ) have purchased a new
press, type and ether printing material fer the
enlargement of the PIONEER. 1t is my intention
to attempt TO get up as large and neat paper
as any one printed in any of the adjoining eoun-
ties; and in SO doing, shall have to look to the
citizens of the county for the support necessary
for its continuance. The liberality of the peo-
pie WILL therefore determine the success and pub
| lcation of the paper, and it will be expected
that each man interested in the future growth
and prosperity Of Wyandot county will freely
/ lend his aid in securing subscribers.
The PIONEER, in politics, viii be Democratic
and at the same time, claim nothing for itself
that will not be extended to others While the
editor has his PECULIAR MOTIONS of political and
other matters, he believes that other men have
alike privileges to their opinions Although |
may publish a political paper, it must and Will
be free from ALL FACTIONS, and controlled alone
by the editor When say this, it is not my in

De received for shall at all times be pleased to
counsel with my friends upon all matters per-
tanning to the best interests of county and the
publication of the paper. If however, might
differ with others in opinion that difference can
alone be changed by full conviction Of my
! error
The FARMER shall not be neglected, as good
| L. to 70 h
interests. A gentleman Of ability, has kindly
consented TO aid me III this department of the
paper, and with his aid, hope TO be able to rem
der She country subscribers, good service.
The mechanic and laborer will always find
the columns of this paper open for the defence
of their rights and the advancement of theil
prosperity. In fact all classes will find our pa
per ready to vlndicate every thing calculated tt
promote the greatest good to the greatest mum
her.
With this exposition of what the Pioneer will
be, I ask every gentleman, who can, to come ur
and subscribe, and get as many more as he car
to do likewise. The prosperity of every tow
and country depends moro or less upon the pa
per of the county; and that the paper may bt
what it ought to be, let it have good living
support.

PURIFYING POULTRY HousEs.--I take
this opportunity of suggesting new mode
of purifying fowl houses, which l have
adopted with success. If you consider it
deserving publicity perhaps you will give
it place in your next number; can re-
commend it from my own experience as
an excellent plan; it is as follows: About
once in month, or when you have no
sitting hens in your house, clear out your
old nests, and stop up all the crevices in
the doors, &C.: procure about peck OF
sawdust, but it in the center Of your
house and set FIRE to it; let it shoulder foT
about a quarter of an hour, taking care
to keep the place properly closed, to pre-
vent, as far as possible, the escape of the
smoke; the victim if any, will be com
pletely destroyed, and your fowl-house
will smell sweet and clean for at least one
month.
