1T is not what man EARNS which makes him

PRECAUTIONARY TROPHIES.

MI. CURTIS, the surviving Executor
of the Washington family, has recently
presented to the President of the United
States, for the benefit of the people of the
United States, the Standards taken at
the battle of Yorktown. The National
LnteAigencer says:
"Among these old standards are a
British and Hessian one. The British
is the ~regimental colors of the 9TH regi-
ment of the line. In the centre of the
famed red cross banner, is the Order of
the Garter, surmounted by a crown, with
the motto, { Honi SOFT ga NAL q pense.'
The Hessian standard is deliberately
worked. In the centre is an eagle soar
ing aloft, in one talon a truncheon of
command, in the other an olive branch.
Motto, Pro PrinceSSee ct PatrIa: 1775.'
Both flags are of silk, and nearly
eighty years old, dilapidated by time,
the British flag having suffered some
what from relic-seekers, who have ap-
p~ropriated to themselves scraps of the
renowned banner that once foated in
terror over a continent, with a view to
revival in modern times of the ever glo-
rious memories of the surrender of Corn
wallis"

BULLARD,s

We have visited this beautiful PIANO.
rama four times and would gladly visit
it a dozen times more. Independent of
the pleasure received in witnessing its
exhibition, we would not take ten dol
lars for the knowledge we have obtained
from it respecting the situation of the
city itself, and the location of the prin-
eipal streets, public buildings, squares,
parks &c. Asa work of art it approach
es perfection as nearly as a work of the
kind need to. Every thing stands out
IN bold relief. Trees, posts and tele-
graph poles neither lean nor lie down,
kbut stand out as natural as the originals
themselves. No fancy scenes are rep
resented on the painting. Every thing
was copied from real objects and Incl
dents. No one car view this Panoram
without admiring the artistic skill, the
eminent good taste in the introduction
of Incidents, and the patient labor of the
Artist who brought it out. His coun-
trymen owe him an everlasting debt of
gratitude. Pe~cuniarily it must pay, for
SO much merit cannot fail to draw large
houses.
Thus speaks an exchange, of Billiards
Panorama, which is soon to be exhibited
at Ashland.

IL We publish below an abstract of
the Annual Report presented to the
American Bible Society at their recent
anniversary in New York.
During the year past, two of the
Managers have been removed by death.
"Eighty-two auxiliary Societies have
been recognized
"There have been added to the Socie-
ty, ninety-eight Life Directors; and Life
Members LIZA
"The receipts of the year, for general
objects of the Society, amount to 1884,
$40 so: being an increase over last year
of SAT 1913 08.
"The number of Bibles printed during
the year is SOC, 600, and of Testaments
$4,000; making a total of S62, 600.
"The number of volumes issued is
s15 ,399, being an increase of 16,029 and
would have been larger but for the un-
avoidable suspension of operations for
six weeks, owing to removal to new pre-
misses. The entire number of volumes
issued since the formation of the Society
is 9,9O3, ISL.
"Grant of Bibles and Testaments
have been made to Auxiliary Societies,
to Sunday and secular schools to penal
and humane institutions, seamen and
boatmen, lighthouses, and various socie-
ties and individuals for g~ratuitous dis
tribution.

The Ohio Statesman is no more. The
proprietors Of the Ohio State Democrat
have purchased the Statesman Office
from Mr.. Cox, and the two papers are
now united in one, with the name of the
Statesman and Democrat. Mr.. Cox
has spent a short but profitable careerin
the political arena of this State. Here
alizes the full force of the old saying,
/" put not your trust in politicians )" for
if ever a young gentleman was mistaken
as to the politicians of Ohio, Mr. Cox is
the man. One thing can be said of him
at all events-he valued not the Al
mighty Dollar more than his own honest
opinions. What he said he believed
no milk and a0ater articles appeared in
his paper. In this he exhibited a spirit
of Independence not always found in a
political editor.
The editors of the Statesman and
Democrat nov say they are in favor of
the foreign and domestic policy of the
Administration. IF we recollect Alright,
but a few weeks have elapsed since they
disapproved of certain measures Of the
Administration The editors claim that
the President opposed the Nebraska Bill.
Very likely this is true, but he certainly
has a queer way of showing his opposi-
ton to it, as he has already signed it.
There seems to be a little " mastery in
activity in the expression. Take it all
in all, we do not like this
Wiring in AID wiring out,
Leaving the people still in doubt,
Whether ths snake that made the track,
Was going south or coming back :"
The Statesman and Democrat is much
enlarged, and has an advantage over any
other Columbus paper in having the Ia
test telegraphic dispatches Business
men trading South, cannot do better than
to take this paper.

Monetary and Commercial Matters.

We are glad to be able to state that
the money market is easier and that nc
gotiable paper of first class is now doing
at Gallo per cent, while capital is accu-
mulating in the hands of lenders. The
Banks are d~iscounting more literally,
and we shall look forward with some
considerable degree of faith for decided
ly easier times in monetary matters. The
London correspondent of the New York
Commercial Advertiser, who is under
stood to be the able financial editor of
the London Daily Times, has a few words
which will be interesting to our readers,
as follows:
"The accounts brought by each steamer
from New York, of increasing pressure
in the Money market, and declining prices
for all descriptions of American seeuri-
ties, create constant surprise o n this side.
Looking at the large arrival of gold late
ly reported from California the accounts
also of the productiveness of the mines
this season, the cessation of specie ship
ment from New York to England, the
unmitigated demand for breadstuffs on
this side, the prospect of a large trade
from America in all those articles which
can NC uScu dS SuUSblIuLCS lOE 4SuOoAdA
produce, the certainty of increased en-
pleyment for all neutral ships, and the
total conviction that by no conceivable
| circumstances are the United State like
ly to be compromised in the contest, the
fact of each phase of the affair produ-
cling almost more monetary alarm in
America than in London is most singu-
lar. The only solution thus far offered
for it, is the extent to which American
securities are held in Europe, and the
probability of their being returned for
realization. But times of trouble here
would seem to be those in which your
stocks would be most sought for, and
latterly there has certainly been no evil
dence of any great quantity being sent
back" g.
This is a common sense view of the
case, and one which the facts Justify
is, the position of the New York Banks.
The statement of the last week shows
that the Specie strength is increased
nearly a million, while the Loans and
Discounts are half a million less. The
Deposits continue to accumulate, and
much more than the footings of the
columns indicate, as the Clearing House
returns show an average clearance of a
million and three quarters per day in
the Exchanges. The actual deposits are
increased to millions as leastl The Banks
are now in a stronger position than for a
long time. The shecie reserve is larger
than since 10th December, and is three
millions greater than in August when
the weekly statements commenced, and
when the Loans were seven millions more
than now, and, our foreign trade now
stands nearly SIS, 900 900 more favora-
bly, than it did at this time last, year
Stocks have now an upward tendency.
The rate for Sterling Bills is 100 IA a

more agreeable than in Ohio. The
health here, as a general thing, is good,
except along the water courses IN the
fall. There we consider malarious dis
tricts and would advise all newcomers to
avoid them. We have a much healthier
country than Ashland county.
MoRALs.-The morals here are al
good asin other places. We have almost
every kind of religious societies here
that you have in your county, such as
Methodist, Presbyterian, Associate Re-
formed Baptist, Congregationalist, Uni.
ted Brethren, Disciple and Lutheran
and, in fact, the condition of society i,
much better than you will generally find
in a new country.
Persons coming here must not expect
to find things as convenient and polished
as in an old country. Iowa has only
been a State about eight or nine years

The express train going east this e
ing ran over a COW on the track q few
miles west of this place. !
The locomotive and first baggage car
were not thrown off, but the next three
cars, comprising a first and second pass
enger and one baggage car, were thrown
down the embankment twelve feet deep.
The baggage car was entirely smashed
to pieces, and the second class car was
very badly broken. The first class car
was not much broken. aes 50
In the second class were a number of
Norwegian emigrants, who, it is reported,
were travelling east by mistake.
The scene in this ear was horrible, six
persons, five men and one woman being
instantly killed, and four others so much
injured as to die the same night.
In the first class car several persons
were slightly injured.
One gentleman residing in the interior
of New York State, was standing on the.
platform from which he jumped-down the.
embankment, and the car falling on him,
killed him instantly. We have not yet
learned his name.
The persons injured were taken to
London and Hamilton, andtheir injuries
attended to.

IMpoRrANr FROM MExIoo.

The AlOarez Party TictoriOus-Lgno-
nsiniouS Retreat Of Santa Anna soith
the loss Of $4,000 Men.
Below we give the particulars of the
defeat of Santa Anna, emitting the high
sounding proclamations OIL both sides:
In the afternoon, towards sunset, the
hills surrounding the town, Valparaiso
were perfectly covered with Alvarez's
troops, who Immediately started in pur-
suit of the enemy, and completely sue
ceeded IN literally cutting them to pieces,
capturing their animals by hundreds,
1.-THE greater part of which had been sto-
len from the ranches of Alvarez, Comon-
fort, and Moreno;) and it is not quite
certain that Santa Anna will reach Mex
leo, as he is only as far as ~Chilpancinge,
with one thousand braves. For the par
t~iculars of their engagements, your read
ers are referred to the official bulletin.
1 will merely add that Gen. Alverez, in
a private letter, states that the river Po-
pagallo was actually colored red with
the blood of the killed and wounded, and
that some unfortunate General, who was
slightly wounded, and was being carried
in Santa Annals litter, was completely
riddled with balls, and the men for some
time thought it was the Captain-G General
who had been shot.
When matters settle down a little, the
following pronunciaanento VIII, 1 have
reason to believe, be issued
For President-Juan Bautista Cev-
allos.
For Minister of War-Juan Suarez
Nevarro. 81
For Minister of Foreign Relations
Ignacia Comonfort.
For Minister of the Treasury-Mel-
Choir Ocampo.
For Minister of Justice-Juan Anto-
MO de la Fuente.
A better selection, in my opinion, could
not be made. They are jail gentlemen
of talent and liberal sentiments; and this
Republic; with such a President and
Cabinet, whose only aim would be the
interests of their country, without aspi-
ring after empty titles and@imperial
mantles )" would be once more herself
again; and God speed the day when the
rights and liberties of free commerce will
be again restored to a trodden-down peo-
pie.

THE GREEK RESURRECTION.

The Paris Moniteur states that the
latest news from Epirus is satisfactory.
The revolutionary party was ~loosing
ground every day, and the greatest mum
Der of the villages in the district Of
Prevesa had sent in their submission
Faud Effendi had 5000 men at Arta,
Eight thousand muskets of Belgian
manufacture, and destined for the Greek
insurgents, had been seized near Malta.
A later account says that Macedonia
is invaded by 1000 Greeks, under Cha
mis- Karatasso, a former aide-de-camp to
King Ohio. They have committed the
most attrocious- excuses. In one place
they shut up $50 Turks-men, women
and children-in a mosque, and burned
them to death.
The subsidy given by the Gear to the
Greek Government amounted to l,0O0,-
900 drachmas per month. The Russian
Government is reported TO have given
letters of marque to the Greek pirates
and that they are now infesting the Lee
want.

DRmOCRATHC PRIMARY MEET.
49, NGSL

The call of the Central Committee of
this county, appears in to-day's paper.
Although the day set is earlier than for
merly, but, ii. is believed, it will suit
more than if set at the usual time. There
was quite . strong expression in favor of
this change from Democrats in all parts
Of the county, with one exception. The
time given by the Committee is about
the same a~ssheretofore. The great OBJ
jeet IN ne change is to do away with the
practice, of candidates spending all they
are worthin elsctioneering, and troubling
the farmers ipthe midst Of their throng-
eit season. The first of July is just be-
fore harvest, and ifa farmer ever has
any time TO spend in the summer, it is
probably then-at least thai day was set
by the Committee at the request Of far
ners. 1t may not suit some, but it can
not beset to suit all aGive and take
. little in order for harmony, is always
necessary
H IS the ardent desire OF many that
no undue means will be made use of to
nominate or defeat any candidate. Let
every candidate stand and go before the
people ON his merits, and If successful he
and his friends will have the more reason
to rejoice. But little, in our opinion,
is accomplished by slandering the oppo-
nents Of the candidates you support.
Remember, everything for the principles
and harmony of the Democratic party
9nothing for men," Recollect, also,
that but few of the many candidates be-
fore che people, can succeed seBe must
be defeated. And Shouldn't be our riend,
your friend, or any body elses friend, we
must submit to the viii of the people.
