been held at Columbus, and asks US to

Promise of Crops

! MAHoNING There Is n hnc prospect
of an abundance of all kinds of fruit In
this section the coming season, with the
exception of peaches, which, it is feared,
we're mostly killed by the severity of the
MISUNDERSTANDING Ohio Republican.
TUscARAwAs.-The Tuscarawas Id
vocate says that the copious and refresh
ing showers, with warm weather for some
days past, are starting vegetation rapid
ly. Wheat in this neighborhoed never
looked better. And this is the case, as
far as we can learn, all over the State.
GEAuGA.-We are having fine spring
weather "about these days" Warm
and reasonable showers are visiting US,
and vegetation is springing into life
Never was spring more joyfully Weicom-
ed in this section than now, and the pros
pect for a season of abundance is cheer
ing.-Geauga J~e6ersontaa.
SpR1NG.-Our farmers are pretty gen.
orally engaged in the spring blowing,
and the crop of spring wheat and pats
promises to be large. Gardening has
been commenced some days in advance
of last year, the ground being in good
condition to receive the early seed, such
as peas, tomatoes, bects, onions, lettuce,

The prospect for fruit was never better.
If no killing frost comes in May, we
may confidently look for the greatest
fruit harvest ever known. W. are well
assured, from personal observation and
authentic information, that we shall not
have more than half a crop of wheat
Glover and Timothy look badly, but oats
are springing up fnely.-W Western Star.
STARK CoUNrY.-The Massilon Netos
of this week, speaking of appearances in
that ueighborhood, says:
"DuriBg the present week this yioini.
ty has been favored with eopious show.
ers of rain nearly every day OF night
The effect of this haa been to give an
impetus to vegetation, which, if not
married by future drouth or frost, will
give us abundant crops. The grass
looks welfnearly everywhere, and, with
a few exceptions, the grass is thriving
finely. Throughout this section of coun-
try we hear similarly favorable reports

The Ashland -Times-Recapitu-
Iafion


In the commencement Of the cam-
paign, we commenced the fgh. believ-
ing that the Ashland Times was "Hse-
fHh." That it played havoc with any
unlusky wight who prssuned to cross
its path. The issue has been one of
their " courting, and of long stand
ins. We regretted the necessity which
compelled as to ehastize them in the
manner in which We did. We regret it
on account of many of our subscribers,
as we'll as for . reason personal TO our
self. We had no desire to +" SILVER q
lance" with u dign5fed nsighbors-
the record and the facts prove this. One
element in u composition was pre-
sumed on toe much, aud hereafter We
hold ourselves in readiness TO meet the
:" Barrister nzer the "Jew" at all
times, hroygk oar cokxmns, with peace
or " war to The hilt" on CALLS who
seek to get their MILK by plunderiug il
from their nsighbOrs. The war 10 over,
and probably We part to meet 10
more" but We hope they may regain
whatever reputation they may have lost
in the past controversy. The "'Twa
Dogs" have . little ability, but with
their bad character, we fear it will new
er benefit them much.
We have convicted the Editor and
his man Friday Of q wilful attempt TO-
lie about u. But few in this eommu-
nifty think otherwise. We insisted on
them substantiating their charges in a
definite shape. This the Editor has not
done-neither has the " present Clerk"
The statement was false and dare not
be sscorn to. As our nsighbor in his
last issue drops the controversy
"gracefully retires leaving " moth
ing with which to take issue, We must
also leave the field. The charges we
made about sxorbitant prices having
been made BY the agent of . certain
company, it will be remembered by our
readers, has not been disproved, and We
only mention it because the Company

Test

As the Journal of this city has said,
that it is conceded - that A. P. Stone,
Of this city, who signs the call for Know
Nothing Convention CT the 18th of July,
is not . Know Nothing, We are anthor-
ised by Know Nothing 10 state that
he has SAT side By side seith Mr.. Stone
IN a Knoao NothingL Lodge.
This makes up = fair iasue Of fact,
and Mr.. Stone can answer for himself.
The Journal does not deny of course
that Mr.. Van Slyke, the other signer
of that call, is not q Know Nothing, as
everybody here knows that he is, and he
figured largely in the Cincinnati pro.
ceedings; but that he is President of
the Washington Lodge Of this city. It
is not very material, but q Know Moth
ing informed us that he saw him acting
in that capacity, and We are informed
that he organized one, if not more of
the Township Lodges in this county
The fact of his being a Know Nothing is
not of course disputed, and hat is. the
question of real importance.-Ohio
