No reply had been received by Prus

powers on the Neufchatel affair
Meantime Prussia persists in forciblC
meaures, and has notified the German
Diet that her own troops are sufficient
for the emergency. Thirty-five thou.
sand troops will assemble at Berlin by
January, and march under Genera
Vongroken upon Switzerland.
The later power is behaving with
great gallantry. The population is
called to arms and responded with en-,
thusiasm.
Twenty thousand men will be armed
Immediately, of which ten thousand
under Gen. Vourgciss will defend
Vasle, and the remainder under Gen
Sergler will garrison Schoffnausen.
The van and reserve Of the army
will operate in the field. Unlimited

voted. The Federal Diet is convok
ed for the 9th ult.
The war with Persia is very unpop
ular in Great Britain. The Londof

English and French presses think Il

In regard to pianos, the returns
show that the five counties which take
the lead in this description ofpropcr-
ty as are follows
Hamilton, which has 1929; Cuya-
hoga, 4S7; franklin, 229; Montgom-
cry, 1913; Erie, 157.
Erie County, according to its size
and population, beats the State for
pianos. The counties of Paulding,
Noble and Fulton, have no pianos,
but we shall not presume that because
they have no pianos that the good
people thereofhave "no music in their
souls"

tics:

This makes the grand estimate oI
personal property belonging to the
people of the State of Ohio $293,392,

fair to presume that there is a large
surplus which either from purpose or
accident has not been returned at all
Allowing that we have in this State
two millions and a half Of population
the average to each man, woman anC
child throughout the entire State
would be considerably over $100.--
Remember the figures given above dC
not include the net property, the hou
ses and lands of the State. We thinl
the people of Ohio have every reason
to feel Satisfied with their lot, and tC
give thanks to God for the manifold
blessings he has vouchsafed to them.

Pennsylvania U. s. senator.

Col. John W. Forney, editor of the
PennSyLuanian, and Clerk of the
House, during the last Congress, has
been nominated by the Democrats Of
the Legislature for U. S. SENATOR
His election is not certain. Some
eight members, said to have been
bought up by Simon Cameron, re-
fused to attend Or be governed by the
caucus. The Democratic majority on
joint ballot is only four. Intense ex.
citement prevails on account Of the
factious course of the eight mem.

DThe Portsmouth Republican is
terribly Seuer0 on Hon. Howell Cobb,
of Georgia, because he has issued a
book "on the 'scriptural examination
Of Slavery in the U. States, calcula-
ted to secure civil and religious lib
erty to the race in Africa" The ed
itor tells Cobb that he had better con-
fine his 'labors Of love nearer home,
and in the next paragraph sagely ad-
vises that he 'had better go to Africa,
and concludes by declaring that he is
not fit to live where the nineteenth
century reflects its bright rays!' Il
Cobb isn't used up man, now, the
fault is not in the obtuseness Of the
Republican editors pen,. but in the
capacity of Cobb to endure sharp
things!

"Pasker Wheel" Suit Decided.

'Haikef WHICH, sun OeClueUs
A late number of the Cleveland
Plain Dealer contains the result ola
suit to recover damages for infringe
ment upon the patent of the "Parker
Wheel" Several of the citizens Of
this county have been compelled to
aid in the contribution to the 'purse.of
the assignee Of Parker, for similar
Infringement. For instance, if the
owner of a mill was found using q
"Parker Wheel" he was summoned to
trial in the United States District
Court at Cincinnati, and rather than
60 to the expense ofgoing there and
employing counsel, he would pay
from $50 to 500 to settle, which was
so much clear gain on the part Of the
plaintiff. af,
The suit Just terminated at Cleve-
land, before Judge Wilson, Of the
District Court, is said to have been
thoroughly tried and elaborately dis
cussed, occupying several days, and
the verdict Of the jury was for the de-
fendant. We hope this suit will have
the effect to terminate the troubles
about those matters, and induce tue
plaintiff to cease his filchings from
those who have been so unfortu-
nate as to have one of the Parker
Wheels. Hooking Sentinel.
