would have said :" thy people shall be
my people, thy God my God; where thou
livest, will live, and where thou diest, there
shall my bones be laid" but God has ordered
it otherwise, and He calls His people where
He will. Live near to Jesus, aud be united

in one mind, striving together for the
faith of the Gospel. Not long since, was
talking with the venerable Lyman Beecher,
and could see that his bodily powers were
fading. / asked him what was the chief OBJ
ject of life, as he had found it. Frightening
up with life and animation, he replied with
hearty emphasis, "'.0t distinction, not money,
but SGUing SouLs." This be our work. 1t
matters little where We work, if at last we
shall ourselves be saved, we shall meet as
fellow members of the church triumphant to

We shall sing around the throne, and the
echoes will reach each other though a eonti-

bid us welcome, and Heaven shall be our

THE ARREST OF THE Communicable
briefly mentioned yesterday the arrest of two
men calling themselves Robinson and Ing
ham, for passing counterfeit bank bills.
On Monday morning clothing dealer,
upon Lorain street met officer Furnal and
detective L. B. Whitney upon the market,
and told them that two men had offered him
a counterfeit bill. They got into his buggy
and rode to his store, but the men had gone.
They had mentioned their intention of going
to Brooklyn. The officers then returned to
Whitney's house, and, taking his horse and
buggy, drove toward Brooklyn. Arriving
there, they saw horse and buggy standing
at the door of the old tavern, which CORES
Ponded with the description which had been
given of the conveyance which the two men
had had. Entering the bar room, they saw
no one, but while at store near by they
saw man unfasten the horse and drive off,
the other one having walked on toward
Brighton. The officers shortly followed and
as the first buggy had stopped at an old tay-
eIn blduu Ou tue west sue Ol the EOhuJ the
officers took post of observation in the
tavern opposite. One of the men (the one
who had walked went into the Post Office
and passed one of the bills, and the two then
rode toward Breeksville: The officers fol-
lowed, and under pretense of being the own
ers of the horse and buggy which the men
were using, they pursuaded them to go back
to the tavern. Here they were arrested and
searched, and about SIS of good money
found upon them, together with one S5 bill.
The buggy was then searched and between
the lining and the leather of the side, Fur
nal found roll of over 5000 of counterfeit
money. II was mostly of Sc upon the Com
monwealth Bank, of Philadelphia, of which 50
much has been put in circulation of late
The men were brought to town and lodged
in Jail.
The counterfeits upon the Commonwealth
Bank are exceedingly well done, and ealcu-
lated to deceive an expert. 1t is best to re-
fuse all So bills upon that Bank.

Day GOODs BAZAAR.-The passers upon the
south side of Superior street, between Seneca
and the Park, cannot have failed 10 notice
the exquisite taste which is always displayed
in the arrangement and decoration of the
show windows of the Dry Goods store of
Messrs. Sherwood & Oakley. At this time
they are radiant with the beauties of new
spring goods, and bevy of ladies were
constantly before them yesterday, admiring
the fabrics displayed to their wistful gaze.
Not all, however, stopped at the outside Of
the entrance. However pleasing as was the
sight to the fair shoppers, the luxury Of
pricing the articles, and of delicately hand
ling the goods which Obliging clerks spread
in almost endless profusion upon the coun-
ters, was too great to be resisted, and so, all
day long, the salesrooms were thronged and
selections were being made. It was pleas
ant and yet hard task for the purchasers,
for although shopping is among the neeessi-
ties of city lady's life, yet there the supply
was so ample, and the styles so varied, that
it was hard to choose. Dress goods, from
print to brocade black and colored silks;
delaines, ginghams shawls, from the plain
blanket to those flashing back royal tints;
ribbons which were destined to awaken
pangs of envy in female, and thrills of adj
miration in male acquaintance muslins,
brilliants, and all else were there, and al
selling at one price for rich or poor. It was
a pleasant sight for careless bachelor, but
aggrevGting 1--WE should judge) to the man of
family whose wife and daughters consider q
promenade "down town, " and call at sher-
wood & oakley's as part of their household
duties. The spring trade is now fairly open,
and the warm bright days require appro-
pirate costumes, and SO, while Fashion
reigns supreme, the portals of Sherwood &
oakley's Mammoth Store will be passed by
many "ladie faire" anxious to inspect the
contents of the cases constantly arriving.

dence OF scholarship, success IN teaching,
&c, ns apPieants may furnish.

to give place TO some one who would have
time better to attend to the duties of the

struction connected with the Board of Fx-
aminers.

- stOckmen, and all engaged in raising
horses, will, by referring to advertisement in
this paper of B. R. Beavis, administrator,
find a rare chance to buy beautiful horse,
as the famous stallion GOdOlphin, brought
here by his recent and deceased owner, from
Vermont, is advertised for sale by the ad-
ministrator. GOdolphin is beautiful jet
black, is 51< hands high, years old, and as
a trotter has no superior in Northern Ohio
for style and speed He made the best time
in harness at the Ohio State Fair in 1858, and
he also took the premium of $500 offered
by the Cuyahoga County Fair last fall for the
best and fastest trotting stallion. He was
sired by Sherman Black Hawk, known as
the North, or Myrick Horse; dam by Hills
Vermont Black Hawk. His yearling colts
in this vicinity are highly priced by their
owners. f4.
GodolPhin may be seen by calling upon B.
R: Beavis, the administrator.

iyn, n. Y. New York; D. Appleton & Co.
1850.
Inexcellent text books for teaching French

the elements and principles of that language
in aseries ofprogressive lessons, our language
abounds, but these text books are generally
deficient in treating of the syntax of the Ian

THE FAsr Train TO CHIoAao.-The time
made by the special train via the South
Shore Route from Buffalo to Chicago was as
follows: Buffalo to Erie, ss miles, hours
and 20 minutes Erie to Cleveland, % miles,
hours 21 minutes; Cleveland to Toledo,
Il2X miles, hours 81 minutes Toledo TO
Chicago, IA miles, hours 10 minutes. The
running time then of this lightning train was
but thirteen hours and .forty-eight minutes
from Buffalo 10 Chicago, and nine hours and
seven miautes from Cleveland to Chicago, a
speed between the cities never before equal
led, and over series Of Railroads surpassed
by none in the country for ease and safety.
The North Shore train, which, according
to the card, was to arrive in Chicago thirty
FIVE minutes ahead Of the South Shore, really
arrived there fifteen minutes after the South
Shore train. Good for our side.
This contest for speed was really great
international race from Buffalo to Chicago.
The North Shore Line left Buffalo an hour
earlier, so that the South Shore Line left
Buffalo at the same time that the other left
Suspension Bridge. The North Shore dis
tance, via. the Great Western and the Mich
igan Central, is 5I3 miles. The time was
10 hours and 40 minutes, including stops,
making an average of about SO miles per
hour. The South Shore distance is 5S9 miles.
The running time is given abovej the time,
including stops, was Is hours is minutes, an
average of about S51I miles per hour.
OF the South Shore Line the Cleveland &
Erie Road made the best time. The time of
the Buffalo & Erie was about Ss miles per
hour, of the Cleveland & Toledo about S5, Of
the Michigan Southern fraction over 80,
and of the Cleveland & Erie over 4O]z. So
the South Shore beats the North Shore, and
the Cleveland & Erie beats the crowd hurra

LAST NIoHT's CoUsC1L.-The most of the
Councilmen were in their seats last evening.
The most important action taken was the
passage of the ordinance to pave Superior
street and curb the sidewalks. A remon-
STRANGE signed by nearly oil the property
holders upon the street, was read, and a
motion made to reconsider the vote, but lost:
30 the ordinance stands, and the street is to
bepaved. Previous to this being done, how
ever, an ordinance should pass, widening the
sidewalks and narrowing the roadway.

EXTENT OF THE LAKE CoNNERCF.-Some idea
of the magnitude of the commerce of the
Lakes may be formed from the number of
vessels which pass Detroit. The Shipping
Master, Capt Hall, keeps record of all ves-
sells that pass during the hours of daylight,
and he reports that 1875 steamers, barques,
brigs, and schooners have passed that port
from the opening of navigation, March 9th,
up to noon of Monday last, period of two
months and eight days. The Detroit river
steamers are not enumerated, nor are the
seows, &C., that carry wood, stone, &c, up
and down on the river.
The number as above is derived as fol-
