The Old Grave Yard,

Some time since, we made mention o
the bad candition Of the Old Grave Yard
and are now compelled to sllude to thC
subject again. We had occasion to vii
this place of rest for the dead, a few days
ago, and was surprised to see the misera
Bile condition in which we found it. The
passway through to the yard was almost
impossible, for either carriages, persons
on foot. We DO hope, fvr the sake oI
those that lie beneath the sod, that this
matter may be attended to. Let there be
a subscription taken up, for the purpose
Of fencing in and making other repairs,
in tho way of bcautifying this place Of
final rest of the dead.

For the Ohio Statesman.


FRANKLIN 'lP., JACKSON Co Sept. 10
Ed. STATESMAN Dear Sir: | want to
give you some of the doings of the mid
night prowling, church.buning, dark
lantern, oligarchy association in this COM
munity. Well about this time last year,
they established one Of their midnight
grand ccnters in this township headed by
two who would be sons of Levi, one pro-
Tossing to zeal mems bodies, and occa.
sionaly administering consolation to Their
spiritual wants; the other follows p d.
ding goods from an old rickety store,
and trading horses. and preaching ocCa.
sionally. These men with their crazy
deacon, have set themselves up for polit.
ical re'ormcrs. Well, [ think they have
got two out of three of the Wings TO join
them, end some dozen or so of crazy, sap.
head Democrats, who did not know what
they were about, only as some person
to d them. | do think, they are made up
OF the last men on the face of Gods foot
stool. They hold their midnight jubileps
at little forty dollar grocery, on the
Railroad, kept by man who does busi,
ness under other peoples names. to keep
from paying his honest debts. | have
heard respectable men, belong to both oi
the old political parties, say that they
were afraid to speak their minds publicly
against them, for fear OF private injury,
Knowing the desperate character of some
of the acknowledged members Of the o.
der. So you can see the reputation that
some of the professed followers of the
meek and lowly One choose to walk hand
in hand with. when they want their low
and dirty work done. You may set little
Jackson county dow for a handsome ma
joily for the Democratic ticket this fall.
