shooting Mr.. TATE He had frequently
blocked the road with brush. logs and rails.
had thrown down the fence and let the cat
tie into the grain fields, and various other
depredations which Mr.. TATE bore thinking
that his spite would soon be satisfied; but
it grew the worse the less the notice was
taken of him. On the day the fatal occur
renee transpned, Mr.. TATE had gone to
neighbors house on some business, on re-
turning, found TwEEDY again tearing down
his fence, when the following alteration
took place, as quoted from letter sent to
his friends in this vicinity. "Mr. TATE said
what in the world TwEEDY are you destroy

Mr., EpIroR:

Mr.. EDITOR:
Keep cool should now be the motto for
the people when the mercury stands at 90
in the shade, and Old Sol is pouring his
scorching :ays upon the parched ground
Such has been the state of affairs here for a
week past, and we feel like trying Sidney
Smiths experiment, of taking off our flesh
and setting in our bones to COOL With
such temperature, business must neces-
sarily be dull and as our two principal crops,
Wheat and Tobacco have been shipped,
further operations in the produce line will
be light.
We are pleased to learn that the wheat
prospect in this region isvery promising, and
our farmers will be in the midst of harvest
this week, and the best of all is-that, at
their very doors, they have the best wheat
market in the State-no wonder then that
the elongated visages and croaking voice
of the sons of the soil give place to cheer
full faces, for they have bright prospect
ahead, land the crops, soil and comfort of life
around Barnesville, are unsurpassed.
am happy to state, that the amount re-
quired to complete the new NJ. E. Church
has been subscribed and the work on the
building will soon commence, and be fur
nished by October. The old house occupied
by the Methodist, has been purchased ant
will be repaired and by the society of Disci
pies as a place of worship. The latte

meetings here, which have been attendet
with success. A number have joined, AM

Mr.. EDITOR: | see in your sst issue d
tiattering notice of your visit TO the public
school of our village. On the evening of
the Sd OF the present month. there was an
exhibition ofthe literary societies connected
with it. The parents and friends of the
scholars were present en- maSSe, and the
number of strangers in attendance, gave
ample evidence that something was expec-
ted; nor were they disappointed, for the per-
formers acquitted themselves reditsbly,
showing by the taste displayed in the selec-
tion OF their declamatory exercises, and b e
the vigorous and clear style of their original
productions that the thorough training they
have received has not been been in vain.
Although the room was so much crowded as
to be uncomfortable, yet good order was
preserved to the close, and it was remarked
by several of the spectators that they were
never present on similar occasion where
the au dence was SO quietly disposed and SO
generally interested.
understand that it is the intention of the
Board of Education to make a division in
the school, and thus give better opportu-
nifty both 10 beginners and more advanced
scholars, and that hey intend to accommo-
date such persons Of the surrounding neigh
borhood as desire to profit by the advantages
toIbe secured by thi s arrangement.
1t is becoming more and more common
for villages to furnish opportunities for
academcal instructed to the youth of thei r
several vicinities; and surely there is no
better way 10 educate children than to give
them the benefit of the home district school
SO far as it will advance Them, and then for
instruction in higher branches to send them
to tn nearest good school where such in
struclion is impaired, (for very few single
districts will support high school) In
this manner they may become intelligent
men and women while yet under the watch
full eyes of parents, avoiding the evil inhu-
ences Inevitably thrown around the students
of colleges, seminaries, &c, the consequent
ces of which frequently are so ieplorab'e.

@The famous steamer Buckeye State
seven years old last February, went down
a few days ago for the last time-to be bro
ken up at Cincinnati. her machinery to be
transferred to a new boat. In May, 1850,
under Capt. Sam. Dean. she made the cell
ebrated run from Cincinnati to Pittsburg,
the best time ever made up the Ohio river
raising the ''24 hour pole," placed. we be-
lieve, by the Telegraph No. ., in ls4s,near
the mouth of Little Hooking, and planting
it some six miles above, a short distance
above Parkersburg; point which no boat
since has been able 10 reach in "a hours
from Cincinnstti. The splendid "Union
line" steamers, in 1928. said they were 60
ing to carry the pole to Marietta in "a hours,
and made attempts at it; but the Buckeye
State still has "the horns," an honor which
her memory will probably continue to wear.

kIoT Last night the quiet of our town
was disturbed by strange sounds and strange
scenes. Boys and men, and men and boys,
were hurrying hither and ,hither and among
them was a man-we went say who, but he
was sin liquor pretty deep. The last that
was heard from him, he had been pretty deep
in ,well contiguous 10 the steam mill, and
came out with the determination to leave
town in the morning, we guess the boys
gave him free pass.
They next visited learned gent about
six feet in his boots. They did not get hin
into the we'll, but they emptied near wei
of water on his premises, and it is likely tn,
cooling beverage quieted for time th'
spirits. In this case they acted very rudely
