In the danger of Bronchitis and Pneumonia, which
often follow in the train Of neglected cold and in

and argument sufficient for attention, not only to the
preventive means, but also to the curative Of

Coughs sometimes proceed from disOrdered or dys-

at Chillico,he on Saturday last. The Gazette
says that the court house was packed to
suffocation. many being compelled to re.

Old men were there who had not attended
a political meeting for years. The crowd
was addressed by Hon. Caleb B. Smith,
who spoke for an hour and three quarters,
and held the audience spell bound with his
thrilling eloquence and unanswerable logic.
He was followed by Fix Gov. Corwin, who
informed tie audience that the speech of
Mr.. Smith was the best political speech he
ever heard. There was in Gov Corwin's
speech al; the eloqucnce, bumor and sar-

People's State Convention

We understand that call from the PEG.
pie, without reference to party, for Peo-
pies State Convention at an early day, at
Columbus or Dayton, will be Issued in a
few davs. This call eminates irom the
peop.e who are citizens of mai,ri'y of the
counties OF the State, and the convention
it will be seen will put to shame the meagre
caucuses of Office holders and office seekers,
recently held by the two dominant parties
The object of the Convention will be TO
nominate State ticket totally free from
party machinery, which will wake up the
two spoilS par ties, and i: is hoped, hurl them
from power HiHsboro' (O) Citi2en.
FiGdlesticks, brother Scuit, your idea Of
n Conve nton to nominate State ticket,
perfectly "free from party machinery" is
IN absurdity. We have no fault 10 find
with the State ticket nominated bv the late
Republican Convention in Columbus. The
nominees are good men; and you might call
fifty Peoples Conventions and make no
improvement We expect to support the
ticket; and this is the general feeling in
this section of the State with all who do
not intend voting foi the Locofoco candi-
dates You better draw the charge from
your little loud sounding, desperate kicking

the brars, where there is no game but

Northern Ohio Lunatic ASYLUM.

~
At an adjourned meeting of Trustees,
held at the Asylum on the Sd of August,
1858, tie following Preamble and Resolu-
tion was adopted:
WHEREAS. Since the last meeting of the
Board of Trustees of the Northern Ohio
Lunatic Asylum, and the adoption of tie
resolution to close the Asylum on the lst
of September, proximo, as appears on the
record of that meeting, the Governor of the
State has intimsted disposition to afford
the Institution "materiaI aid" from his con-
tingent fund for its support during the
months of September and October, provided
he could be satisfied by the report OF the
Committee on Benevolent Institutions, or
other members CT the Legislature, as to the
prudence and economy OF its management.
and the necessity of additional means to
carry it on; and
WHEREAS, Several members OF the Leg
islature have this day convened at the Asy-
lum and elected such information by their
inquiries as appears in the following report:
We, the undersigned, members of the
Legislature of the State of Ohio, do hereby
certify that We have given TO the affairs of
the Northern Ohio Lunatc Asyi ium care
ful and complete examination. We are
satisfied that since the month of Decem-
Der, 1857, the institution has been econom-
ically, judiciously and properly managed.
and we take pleasure in testifying to the
| fact.
We find as is supposed by inadverteLce
or oversight on the part OF the Legislature
that the sum of four thousand dol ars ne
cessary to carry on the Institution for the
last two months of the quarter, ending the
fiscal year 1858, was placed to the credit
of the first quarter of the fiscal year '59
and that tie Trustees find themselves un-
able, for want OF funds, to carry on the In
stitution during the two months commenc-
ing September LIST, aad ending November
lst, 1858. They have therefore voted to
close the Institution during that period.
Under these circumstances, believing
that great injury would be inflicted upon
the unfortunate inmates of the Institution,
by sending them to their homes. and the
jails and prisons of their respective coun-
ties; and believing our views will NEE: the
entire approval of the Legislature and the
people of the State, we earnestly recon-
mend to the Governor IF the State that he
furnish to the Trustees, ont of the Execu-
tive Contingent Fund of the State, the ne
cessary sum of four thousand dollars to en-.
able them to carry on the Institution until
they can rerch the approp ration made fol
its support on the Isl day of November
next. III. CANFIELD,

MR. EDITOR: Ive been waiting Tor some
Of the older teachers, to make move about
getting mp Teachers Institute in Belmont
county, sometime during this fall; and as
no one has said anything in public on the
subject | concluded to call attention 10 this
point. 1t will be con ceded tha. something
of :he kind is needed Tor the improvement
of teachers in Belmont; as much SO as in
any surrounding county. The profession
OF teaching has to be acquired as any othe r
art or profession, anc it were well for each
teacher to make himself proficien! in his
business. The cUuoies of jefferson and
Harrison are to have Union Institute,
commencing On the 23l OF August, for one
week. This is as it should be. Let the
Belmont teachers unite with the teachers of
some adj2ining county, and get up an In
siitule, Or what would perhaps be better
TO get ur Normal Institute upon the plan
put lshed in TnE CHRONICLE, of 29;h Ju,y.
Teachers, get that plan and read it, and
then let us Eear iiom you in reference 10 Ii.
aud let US act upon that plan, or some other
for improvement as teachers. The
services of Mr.. J. Ogden, of Mansfield
aud Mr.. e. S K yce, OF Norwelk, Can be
secured as Instructors, by giving them
timely notice. J. EDWARDS.
p. s. Since writing the above receiv-
ed The Ohio Journal Of Education, from
which learn quite number Of Institutes
are now being held in the Southern part Of
tie State; some for one week, others for
three and four weeks each. Let us get up
one in this part OF Ohio. E.
REMARKS We trust the Teachers of
Bemont county, may not neglect the sug-
gestions of Mr.. EDWARDS. They are of
more than ordinary Importance to every tru e
Teacher. Teachers Institutes have been
tested too well for US to question their
utility. We thought that the efforts of the
Teachers in the vicinity of Barnesville last
spring, were likely to succeed well, but the
Committee whose duty it was to call the
next meeting, seem to have forgotten them
selves. Would it not be well Tor this Com
mittee to call meeting at an early day,
and make some provision to have good
speakers engaged Tor the occasion. We
urge early action-[En. CHRoN.
