Judge Calvin Pease

The late Judge PEAsE was noted for his rich
and Poignant wit, and especially his humorous
and harmless puns. 1t is related, that the late
Gen. SnoS PERKINS was about TO honor the vii
lage of Akron, which then, we believe, was near
" all owned by him, with a name, he thought
he would give it an application upon which
Judge PEAsE could make no pun. So he named
it Akron, on account of It's high location. Akron
is a Greek word meaning the top or summit
The General then challenged the Judge to pm
the mar e. The Judge quickly answered "Ak-
ron? Akron? o Aeheronr" Aeheron, the Greeks
supposed, was a location in the birthstone regions
The citizens of Akron would doubtless now con-
slider it an exceedingly doubtful compliment to
apply the name AeheTon to their fair town. A
drunken Irishman, it is said, was once travelling
along the road. wishing to reach Akron, hut in
quired the road TO Acheron, he was told he was
in good ray to get soon to Acheron, but he must
turn to the right in order to reach Akron.

School Teachers of TTumbuIl County;
Old Trumbun against the State,

H. H. BARNET, in his last report, shows that
there was last year a greater number of Female
School Teachers in Trumbull County than in any
other county in the state. the number being 2S9.
Hamilton was the only county that exceeded
Trumbull in the tOtal number Of male and f.
male teachers. The amount expended in this
county last year for teachers wages was 3d.
SIG, a. Total number of schools was 2S6-
Number Of youth enrolled in the TrrnnbuIl Co.
Public schools was IL ,427. There are vet many
youth in Old Trumbull, who Though the igno-
rance or avariciousness of their parents, 10 no
avail themselves of the benefits of our public
schools. Every friend of our free institutions
should use his earnest endeavors, as his saered
duty, to bring all their youth to enjoy the privi-
lcges Of our free schools. These youth are soon
to be our citizens, and voters, and our safety and
prosperity demand that every ~exertion be made
to prepare them to become intelligent and up
right members of society.

Fatal

A German, says the Pitts. Dispatch, named
Adam Schisler, from Mahoning county, Ohio
got into the cars at that city on the 9th ult., with
a through ticket to Harrisbmgh, and when in the
neighborhood of the Pennsylvania bridge, neal
Dauphin, he was awakened by the conductor
and asked for his ticket. At this he became
very indignant, and showed fight. Shortly af
ter, the cry was heard through the cars that a
man had jumped out of the widow; and upon
stopping the cars, the manglod remains of the
unfortunate individual were found lying on the
track. His head was crushed in the most shock
ing manner, and one of his feet almost severed
from his body. The Coroner held an inquest
on the remains, and rendered a verdict that the
deceased came to his death by precipitating him.
self from the window while the cars were in mo.

Artificial Teeth.


A set of Porcelain Artificial Teeth were exhi-
bited to us by DR.. SPEAR, of this place, (whose
advertisement may be found in another column,
which seems to us to combine many advantages
Not only are the teeth porcelain, but so also are
gums, (which are eolored to r semble the natur-
al, and glazed and the artificial roof of the
mouth also. There is no metal at all, but por-
eelain only. This obviates the sharp angles
where the roof and teeth unite, which so affects
the voice and articulation in some cases where
the metal plate is used. There are no c~revices
in which particles of food can lodge, and create
an unpleasant taste and smell. If, when the
practical test of long use is aPplied to them, they
answer the purpose for which they are intended,
as well as to all appearance they may do, they
will certainly be a decided improvement.

The Turf.

A fine foot race came off on Friday afternoon
on the west side of the public square. Two
Irishmen full of the genuine spirit of the Fourth,
and armed with stones made chase after a Yam
kee who they supposed had insulted them. The
Yankee, badly frightened, expecting every mo-
mcnt to be pelted in the rear with a rock, lead off
handsomely, hotly pursued by the others Fright
gave s~wiftness to the legs Of the pursued, and
old rye made crooked the ways of the Irishmen.
The trio being not slightly boosy, made the ex-
hibitiOn highly ludierous. This gymnastic per
Torrance, or anticipation was about the only
affair that happened in Warren on the fourth,
worthy Of notice.

A Mammoth Pie Plant.

We were shown a few days since, by o. L
DRAKE, Esq, of Freedom, a specimen of Nam
moth Pie Plant, which is certainly the largest
we have ever seen and much larger than we sup
posed it ever grew. The stalk measured 9 in.
ches IN circumference. 1t was > feet high, and
a line running around the outer edge of the leaf
measured seueHteeR feet. 1t was raised by Mr.
DRAKE in his garden and is said to be of bette
quality than that ordinarily grown in this vi
cinity-POTfQ0e Sentinel.

Ball at the Gaskin House.

On the evening of July 4th, the landlords of
this popular house, gavea Ball, which in its con-
eeption and execution, reflected great credit on
the proprietors. The company was not large,
but sufficiently 50 t~osrenderthe affair spirited and
pleasant. The music was ''done" by the Youngs-
town Harp Band, and those who delight in the
graceful exercise of dancing, say that they never
f'tripped" to sweeter strains, or more correct time.
But when summoned to partake of refresh
ments, the d~eceraeSs of the hosts and Others con-
cerned was made more fully apparent. All that
good taste could dictate was exhibited to please
theey and crafty the palate. We cannot par
ticularize, but the whole affair passed off TO the
entire satisfaction of all concerned, and will en-
hanee the popularity of the already popular
landlords of the Gaskill, and their better halves.
One of the most eommendable features of the
Ball, was that at an early hour. the company
dispersed, thus obviating the physical debility
which ensues after a night spent in dancing.

The Fourth of July.

The anniversary of our independence passed
of IN Warren very quietly and pleasantly. Al
though there was no regular public demonstra-
ton, Yet the day was enlivened by numerous en-
trees and exits of excursion parties of our young
country friends. The youngsters fired off the
usual number of fire crackers, much to the an
noyance of spirited horses and to the danger of
their drivers.

C. M. Rail Road.

The trains have run regularly over the Cleve-
land & Mahoning Rail Road between Cleveland
and this place, since the LIST inst Although the
road is not yet ballasted, the track, for the great
er part of the distance, is very smooth, and the
whole is sufficiently so to admit of making good
time. There is no doubt but that when it is fin
ished, it will be equal in snoothness and solidi-
ty, to any road in the United States. The citi-
zens of this county are beginning to realize the
difference between going to Cleveland in the
morning, remaining there six hours, then return-
ing before supper time, after enjoying a ride in
luxurious cars, and the old mode of joltng over
q bad road to Ravenna, then cars to Cleveland,
using up about the whole day, staying ever an
other day in Cleveland, then taking = third day
to get back, and at three-fold the expense.
Stages and hacks connect with the rail pad
at this place, enabling travellers to reach this
point from all direetions. Anew line of hacks,
connecting with the trains, has been established
between New Castle and this place. CoNovrR
runs his Omnibus between Sharon, Pa, and
Warren. A daily line runs to Kinsman and
Meadyille. We hope the mails will soon be
brought by rail, which viii be a great improve
ment on the present tri-weekly system.
