County InfirmarY.

We invite attention to the order Of
the County Commissioners providing
for a vote upon the question of a
County Infrmary. So iaras we have
converSed with the people we have
yet to find single one who objects to
the proposition. All admit that an
Infrmary should be established as a
matter Of economy, and we are GER
tain that the interests of humanity de-
mand it. We may have something
more to say on the subject before the
election.

Iowa Election.

The Grand Cedar Qowa) Rapids Of
the 18th, in noticing the election, says
that the new constitution has been
adopted by not more than y thousand
majority. About tour-fiths of the
counties already heard from have elec-
ted Democratic officers. This is, per-
haps, the truest indication of the sen,
timent of people upon those ques,
tions which, on all hands, are admit
ed to be strictly political There is nc
doubt but that at this day the State is
largely Democratic, and should il
prove that the new constitution is
adopted, it is absolutely certain tn al
the gubernatorial chair will be filled
next term by Democrat.
Ohio will follow suit in October, by
electing Payne and the Democratic
ticket.

Ono STATE FAIR.-The State Fair
is to be held this year at Cincinnati,
commencing on the 18th of Sept.
and continuing four days. The Ma

vortised to carry passengers and

Cincinnati at hall the usual rates.
No doubt a large number of our citi-
zens will embrace the opportunity to
attend the Fair and do up a little bu,
siness in the city at a small expense.

Of fashion. What pilgrimages are
made, what prayers are uttered for

its charms.

~We observe that there is a gen.
eral disposition on the part Of the
Americans to adhere to their own can
didates. In Hamilton, Highland,
Muskingum and other counties in
which the party has any strength, full
tickets have been nominated. In
Meigs, Gallia, and Lawrence move
ment is on foot among some Of the
leaders of the American and Repub-
lican parties to fuse and divide the
offices. IF this arrangement succeed,
it will be another instance of the eco
hesive power Of public plundcr. -
We apprehend, however, that the peo,
pie will reject all such corrupt ar
rangemOnts and send the unprinci-
pied bargainers to the shades OIL
obscurity.
