result in much benefit to the county, as
there are other sums due the county in
the way Of rent. The Commissioners in
tend to give the matter thorough over
hauling, and to make every delinquent
cash up.
Mr.. Mott, in his argument, let the cat
out of the wallet completely. 1t seems
the jail has been rented for school ol-rooms,
that the Auditors office was occupied by
Mott himself after his time was up as Au-
ditor, and that the Prosecuting Attorney is
using his office as Justices court room.
The Auditor said for one he was much
obliged for this information, and he would
be on hand to collect all back rents and
deposit it in the treasury where it proper
ly belonged-said he wanted to see diff
ferent arrangements about the Court
House-that the Probate Judges Office
should be where the Prosecuting Attor-
news now is, and vice versa-hoped to
see new and better arrangements made
previous to his leaving his Office, and
then if the people lulled into asleep again,
and let things get wrong, it would be
their own fault.
We find, by looking over old files OF
the Pioneer, a kind of farewell address
and prayer by Mr.. Mott when he left the
office as Auditor, officially, and from that
it would seem he intended to step out
and not go near, except on business =
But this little $500 matter has shown
things in different light. Itappears, by
his own admission, that he still remained
in the office all or large portion of the
time during Mr.. Hoyt's two years. Now,
as the County was furnishing an office
and wood for Mr.. Mott during that time,
we hope he will not wait to be sued be.
fore paying over. Let him step up to the
Captains Office and settle, or he, too,
may realize that Jordan am hard road
to travel" We know that Mr. Mott is
a distinguished lawer, is Mayor Of Uppe,
Sandusky, and is said to be an aspirant
for senatorial bonors-but we. tell him
the Republican Board of Commissioners
will do their duty without fear, favor CT
affection"
But to make long story short, let us
give the the old hangers on around the
Court House little bit of advice It is
certain the x-payers of Wyandot Coun.
ty are after you, and if you are wise, like
Davy Crockett's coon, you'll say, "don''
shoot-as it is you, Col. Crockett, III
come down !"
Mr.. Mott, in his argument, twitted the
Auditor about his great promises Of the
large amounts of peculation he was going
to develop in case he got into office
The Auditor told Mott they expected to
to sue him for S., 300 he had paid for
building the Court House over and above
the contract, if the matter was not out
lawed. and if it was, they expected to pc
tition the Legislature for special act to
collect the amount.
Dennisoa was present taking notes,
and will, doubtless, attempt to give the
subject whitewashing, and throw into
his report liberal number of falsehood,
and ISLANDERS, as is his wont, but he will
deceived nobody.
We must not forget to mention that the
County obtained judgment in the sui
with Hitchcock, for Sc, 90 and interest fol
five or six years.

10 The Ministerial Association of the NJ
E. Church for this District, held session in
this place yesterday. morning. Five or six
clergymen from other places were in attend
ance. The exercises consisted of reading
original essays and criticising the same--the
brethren present participating as well as
the ministers. We were present about an
hour, and found the proceedings highly in
teresting, andaot little amusing We GER
tainly gathered some new ideas as to the ex-
tent to which oral criticism may be carried
1t is matter of regret that the congregation
was not larger.
The only essay We were fortunate enough to
hear, was one read by Rev. Jacob Fegtly, of
this place. 1twas an elaborate effort to show
the greater efficiency of an itinerant than of a
settled ministry. The Arguments We're mainly
drawn from the Bible, were well put together,
and, as whole, the essay evlnced care and
labor IN the preparation, and fully established
the positions assumed. 1t seemed to disarm
criticism.
In the afternoon the Sabbath Schools met.
but we were prevented from attending, and
cannot speak of the exercises. We understand,
however, they Were highly interesting and
profitable. Several addresses were delivered
The Ministerial Association again met this
m orning.

DEMAGoGUEIsM.-The ''hog- latin" edi-

passing the law for the protection of game.
In this he shows his demagogueism or
ignorance. Does he not know that the
law referred to was extensively petitioned
for all over the State-and by those of
his own party as well as Republicans?
that it-did not pass the Legislature by a
party vote. but that Republicans and
Democrats voted for and againstit? We
do not expect much of the leatherhead of
the Vindicator, but he should keep him
self little better posted, or he will be-
come the laughing-stock of even the
most ignorant of his own party.

r The Vindicator, which, for weeks past,
has been lecturing the County. officers on
their lack of economy, inattention to the peo-
ple's interests, de-, in its last issue black
guards the Commissioners and Auditor for
proceeding to collect a small sum of money
due the county from Billy Hitchcock. When
ever you hear Locofoco preach economy !,
rest assured it is all gas-done for effect
When in power no such word is known to
their vocabulary. Their motto then is g Live
while you do livel" Had they not been dis
missed from office in this county three or four
years ago, there is no telling what would
have been our financial condition at this time
That party is incapable of administering pub.
lie affairs without running into all manner of
excesses, and seldom goes out of power with
out a long list of frauds and peculations to
mark its career. This county forms no excep-
ton to the rule. But the Republicans of Wy
andot have well nigh cleansed the Augean
stable, and next fall they propose to finish
the job, when the putrid remains of Locofoco-
ism will be shoveled under without benefit of
clergy, only to be exhumed by some future
antiquarian in his search for materials to cap
a climax of human depravity. So mote it be.
We do not understand the Vindicator to deny
that Hitchcock honestly owes the money for
which he was sued, but that sheet will try to
create little capital for its party and sympathy
for Hitchcock on account of his being Grip
pie. Our own opinion is, that cripple or no
cripple, a man has no right to retain money
that don't belong to him.

CLEAN UP-The warm weather has
at length come, and the interests of our
village demand that every precaution
should be taken to preserve the general
health of the community. Immunity
from sickness is, in a great measure, in
our own hands, Pools of water standing
about on vacant lots, and in streets should
be drained, before they become stagnant,
and diffuse their poisonous malaria
through the atmosphere-cellars where
there may be decaying matter. should
be carefully attended to-and lime freely
used as disinfectant Itis the duty of
the town council to attend to this matter,
and we hope they will give it their asten-
ton forthwith, and not be guilty Of re-
enacting the folly Of tlocking the stable
door after the horse is stolen" TIE
people will hold them strictly accounta-
BILE for disease engendered through their
neglect. Every householder, also. should
see to it that his own premises are
thoroughly purified. Remembers the
old adage that can ounce of prevention
is worth q pound of cure

Great Republican Triumph in Minnesota!

Every Buck African journal we have
opened for over week past has contain
ed glorifcation article over an imagina-
ry Buck-African triumph in the election
of delegates to frame Constitution for
the prospe ctive State of Minnesota. The
Republican papers have said little, feeling
sure that the young giant of the North
West that owes all her prosperity to free
labor and free institutions, would not dis
appoint the expectations ofthe Republican
party. The result has justified their ex-
pectations. Minnesota is Republican to
the core. The pro-slavery party "crow-
ed before they we're out of the woods
The triumph of the Republican party
is complete, and that too in the face of
the most stupendous frauds perretrated
by the Pros Slavery party.
The Minnesotian of the 9th inst, brings
the following returns: Republicans elect
ed SO, Democrats 35; to hear from Is,
making Republican majority, even
should all the districts to be heard from
return pro-slavery delegates. But there
is almost a certainty that half-a-dozen OF
them are Republicans.
The St. Paul Pioneer, the Democratic
organ, of the 9Th, says: 'tWe are appre-
hensive that we 'shrieked,' too soon in
reference to the large Democratic ma
jority in the coming Constitutional Con-
vention. Southern Minnesota sends an
almost unbroken delegation of Republi-
cans We fear the Abolitionists have

FOURTH OF JULY.--We have not heard

ing to take some action in the Natter
The towns around US are making their ar
raagements to celebrate. We know the
patriotism of the Wyandot tribe is, equal
to that of their neighbors.

CLEVELAND. Nov, {

/
FLOUR-Receip's during the pas
week were about 1890 bbls, being SOC
bbls more than the week previous. The
market is steady and firm. Some weeks
ago VIC stated that it was the confident
belief of some of our best informed dea.
lers that owing to the war in India, and
the indications of failure of the Potato
crop in Great Britain, the demand for ex-
port was destined to progressive increase.
That belief is now fully verified; the for
eign orders are steadily aecumulating and
as the impediment recently offered by the
dead lock in the Exchange market is grad
uaIly being removed, the exports are rap
idly increasing. We cannot however ex-
pect to see much if any advance here
during the close of navigation.
WHEAT-Receipts for the week foot
up S8.92s bus against 1880 bus the
week previous. The market has ruled
firm and buyers have had the advantage
throughout.
CORN-Receipts 1898 bus against 2,
7S9 bus the week previous. Most of the
large sales were made at 51@53c. And
car load parcels from store at 53@54.
HOGS AND P0RK--The stock of
Pork previously held in this city is ex-
hausted. There has but little tlanspired
as yet in the way of packing, and we have
no facts to communicate, IN Cincinnati
holders continue anxions to sell Hogs and
prices are further depressed, and the mar
ket is dull. A lot Of 500 sold yesterday
for December delivery at IS, and we un,
derstand this is the outside rate offered for
November delivery. Slop-fattened have
declined to 4@4,75 gross, and very dull.
In Louisville the usual packing season is
rapidly approaching, but as yet we hear
of no movement whatever on the part of
packers, drovers and spectators, The
market is at stand with no prospect of
prices being established for some time to
come. At Madison, Indiana, early in the
season, $4,000 hogs were contracted for
at &c. net, for which, together with lots
engaged at the market price when the
season commences, the business men of
Madison have advanced $230,o00. At
Evansville Indiana, and along the Wabash,
there is an utter Indifference among buy
ers to operate at the decline in prices.-I
A house in Evansville, Indiana, entered
into an engagement before the panic for
5000 head at an average of IS, to be de-
livered on the Wabash. We hear of sew
eral purchases in Gibson county of small
lots at SIS.
BUTTER--There has been consideral
activity chiefly in the better grades. Com
mon and low qualities are not sought after

Here is the latest for destroying crickets;

remedy. He says he tried il, and on go.

of which, on examination, proved to have

sneezing."
That is as good as method we have
heard of for killing rabbits, which is to
paint round dark spot upon the end of a
log, in the woods, then scare up the rabbits
in the immediate neighborhood and they
will make for the dark spot on the log,
mistaking it for hole, run against it and
butt their brains out.
