Not Original.

We learn that the officers on the Like
Shore Railroad have recently stolen and
adopted conductor Crawford's plan Of
distributing fans among the lady passen-
gers during warm weather. Although
the aforesaid, and other roads have been
in operation several years, they never
discovered the wants of the travelling COM
muity, in this respect, until the efficient
and gentlemanly conductor on the c. &
NJ. Railroad showed them how to render
their lady patrons comfortable.

Our Railroads.

The G. & NJ. Railroad is now carry
ing freigh, from Niles, although the pass
enger train runs only 10 this place. By
next Saturday night, if the weather is ia
vorable, the track will be laid 10 Girard,
when the regular train will run through
to that place, which will be the temporary
terminus ofthe road for about four weeks,
when it will be opened to Youngstown.
The Mineral Ridge Railroad is graded
from the Mahoning River 10 the Coal
Bank, and the iron is fast being laid; and
the track will be ready to deliver coal at
the river. for the canal transportation, in
a week or ten days.
The Underground Railroad is also do
ing a good business. Six male chatteis,
all young men, passed through this place
on Saturday, en- route for Queen V%ictoria's
dominion.

Letter from Niles.

NILES, Aug. III, 1856.
NesSrS. Editors Il observe a writer,
over the name of Buckeye in the
Democrat of the 18th inst, pretendS 10
inform the readers of that very worthy
sheet, of a Fremont Fizzle at Niles.
Lest this may influence persons at a
distance, 1 write this /; for here it would
have no effect wha teyer, as any one at
all acquainted in Niles, knows that FIRE.
mont will poll at least ten votes 10 one
polled for Buchanan. The fact is, no
Fremont meeting attempted to convene
on the evening referred 10, nor can l
learn hat Mr.. Smith made any appoint
ment to be here. Certainly he was not
here, nor was the school house opened.
A few boys, said to be some of the
young bloods,' were drinking ale at the
Falcon House, and carousing around,
and l understand, had a drunken fight !;
but how hat could be construed into a
Fremont 6zzle, is more than l can con-
ceive. Such efforts 10 bolster up a sink
ing cauSe will only rebound to its injury.
To show that Weathersfeld is all
right, 1 might name many prominent
Democrats who are going TO vote for
Fremont and Dayton-amongst whom
areJamesD Dempsey, Esq, Gen. BOles, and
all the D family.
The ~long-looked for cars are running
through the upper part of vi village,
and tomorrow will enter woods on Col.
Robbins farm. Yours, &C.,

Elder Rains Sermon,

ELDER JOHN Balm, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, preached a sermon in
the Baptist Church, last Sabbath eve
ming. upon the subject of "The Duty o..
the Pulpit, in relation to Slavery" His
text was, from LIST Corinthians, 9TH, 23d:
" Ye are bought with a price. Be We
not servants of men,"
The Elder took the position that slave
ry deprived the slaves of the privileges
Of the Gospel, shut them out from the
word of God, and doomed them 10 prac-
teal heathenism, and substantiated his
declarations by reference to the manner
in which religion is administered among
them.
He argued further, that the ordinary
relation of master to slave is one of con-
tinued wrong, a constant, shameless
violation of the law which commands us
to love our neighbor as ourself.
On both these grounds the Elder pro-
claimed it the duty of the pulpit TO de-
nounce the crime as fearlessly and
thoroughly as any other offence against
the law of God.
His sermon abounded in strong. manly
exposition of the wrong of seeking to
extend slavery by political action, and
some of his upon the trucking
politicians who would denounce the
clergy for doing their plain duty, were
as severe, as they were well merited.
Those who heard the discourse will not
soon forget it.
The Baptist choir sang a piece at the
close, which was admirably adapted 10
the occasion, and as admirably executed.
SUDDEN DEATH.-Mr. Stanley Spencer,
of MoLtville, in this county, went u
into one of his fields on Thursday
ming last, after his COWS, was seen bya
boy who was in company with him, to
stogger toward a log upon which he sat
down, apparently in a fit. Assistance
being procured, he was led 10 his house,
in an unconscious condition, and re-
manned so until afternoon, when he cx-
pired. The physicians in attendance
pronounced it an upOPleplic fit. Mr..
Spencer was an industrious worthy citi-
zen, and his death is a severe aflliction
TO his family, and a loss TO the town

The following account of the COnven-
ton we take from the MaLoning Register.

A motion was then made that the

A Bustle among the COunterfeiters.

On the 10th inst, a man by the name
of CJnsden was arrested in New York
for counterfeiting. Forty thousand dol
lars in counterfeits On the Union Bank
of Providence, r. l., and on the Union
Bank of Swanton Falls, VT, were found
in his possession, together with all the
implements of their manufacture. He
had been in the business FIVE years.
Last Saturday, Edgor Manly was re-
quired by Justice Loomis to give bail
for his appearance at a higher Court, for
passing some of the same counterfeits.
Last week, also, a mar and a woman
were arrested in Ravenna, for passing
some of the same.
Robert Freer, of this place, was COM
mitted to Jail last Friday for the same
offence, but with a different counterfeit.
We advise the rejection of all SIS on
the Union Bank of Providence, or Union
Bank of Swanton Falls, unless you are
certain of their genuineness. The bills
are well executed, and there is no know.
ing what amount may be in circulation.

cover the county, are being arranged,
which will be addressed by eminent
speakers as soon as Congress adjourns.
DIR. Elder, of your city, has also been
invited to canvass the county, and his
acceptance will be hailed with delight
in every section.
"Thus far, the Buchanan meetings
attempted in this county have been
grand f@zzles, and distinguished chiefly
by a total absence of enthusiasm. His
friends, who understand the range of
politics in the county, are very much
discouraged. And well they may be,
for an inglorious defeat in his own
county awaits him."
