A Bad business,

J. II. Reed, Esq, one Of our most talented
lawyers, has purchased a farm near Bowling
Green, on which he intends to reside in future.
The rich soil of Wood county is more inviting
to him than tie practice of law though we
presume he will not abondon his profession.
The general good behavior Of the citizens of our
county makes light harvests for the lawyers,
and we should be pleased 10 see all of them
hunting up some other mode Of livelihood
But there are certain necessary evils which we
must endure, and, among these are lawyers and
doctors. Perhaps that is not the proper term to
use, and we will modify it by saying that the
people make sores and lawyer and doctors ag-
gravate them--pardon u.s. heal them thus
they are only APPENDICES TO the unnecessary
evils and indiscretions of their fellow men.-
Our friends of Bowling Green should not get
into difficulties, and thus call Mr.. Reed from
his agricultural pursuits TO settle them, but if
they do, he understands the secret of law, and
like all Others of bis profession, is always on
the right side You can depend on that.

Thar FLoUR.-Last week we alluded to
the fact that the Hydraulic MIL was making
flour from new wheat. We then spoke with
out the documents; but not so this time
Major Averill caused bag of that same,
full to the mouth, to be deposited in our sane
tum, and now we can testify of what we have
seen and do know. To say that the flour is
beautiful and good might nswer under some
circumstances, but to those who have been
fed on the -four from grown wheat during the
past year, and had their ears tipge with the
constant illnatured rem rks of some angelic
bread-baker, this would hardly be sufficient.
The bread "comes up" like surface wells
after a soaking rain, and then it is SO
white and beautiful that Genessee man
or woman could not avoid exclaiming " beau
tiful " at sight of it. Therefore, those who
would have a smile play upon the countenan-
ces of their old sweetheart bread bakers,
and have the staff of life light and white,
should call on the gentlemanly dealers at
Peck IL Co.'s Mill.

WEsD4-There are many kinds Of weeds
in this world-noxious weeds of the mind,
that the school teachers talk ABOUT; widows
weeds, that ungallant gentlemen sometimes
allude TO and then there are weeds that are
weeds-and of these latter Il lady has reques-
ted us to speak, and the city fathers must be
made acquainted with the wishes and com
plants of the city mothers. B. it known,
therefore, that many Of our street walks are
so completely hemmed in with weeds that
thcladies experience much difficulty in passing
them. One thoroughly hoped would have
to take the middle of the street. When they
are wet, as they have been for the past few
days, those who pass them come out with all
the appearances of an unstarched water
nymph. A few dollars would remedy the
evil, and we hope it will be attended to at
once, before the seeds ripen for another crop.

Defiance last week, put in nomination A. P
Edgerton, Esq Mr.. E. was a member of Con-
gress at the time of the passage of Douglas
inquitous Kansas Nebraska bill, and voted
against it. This made him somewhat obnox-
ious to portion of the delegates, especially to
those from this county. After many ballots,
efact was established that he must have the
vote of the Wood County delegates or give up
all hopes of securing The nomination. This he
could not get without swallowing fine Cihcinati
platform, and rather than not have the nomina-
ton, he gulpcd it all down-Pierce Douglas,
Slavery, and all. To whatlo depths aspirations
sometimes lead men.
