COMMUNICATIONS.

MEssRs EDIToRs-Pursuant to previous no
ticc nearly all the legal voters in district No
in Hardy Township, met at their, rWalkersl
School House, in said District, on Thursday
evening last, to take into consideration the
necessity and proprety orpctitioning our leg |
islators to reduce the salaries of our public
officers, so far as justice, equity and the pow
er given them will permit.
On motion, JAMES SKELtY, Esq, was called
to the chair, and J. W. BEATTY appointed
Secretary. The object of the meeting was
then briefly stated, and petition to our State
Legislature asking them to reduce the salary
of every State, County, and Township officer
tion) was then read and presented for sigma
lures. There was then free interchange of
opinion upon the subject in general and short
speeches were made by several gentlemen
present. The prevailing sentiment appeared
to be that Rctrcnchment and Reform, espcci-
ally in these war time, are undoubtedly nee
essary. The petition was signed by nearly
all present. Ga motion Messrs David Robert.
son, Louis Donald and John Moore were ap.
pointed committee to draw up memorials to
Congress, asking our representatives there to
reduce the salaries of all officers of our gen
eral government, so far as in their power to do
so. This memorial was presented before the
meeting by the committee, and was ratified
and adopted, and will be printed and copies
sent throughout the County to procure sigma
lures. On motion a collection was taken up
and sixty. .one cents was contributed and put
in the hands of the Secretary to assist in de-
fraying the expenses Of getting enough Of
copies of these petitions printed to circulate
in every School District in the County. 1t is
to be hoped that similar meetings will be held
throughout the country, in every School
District, and that the sentiment of the peo.
pie be fully made known on this subject, and
if our Legislature will not take heed to the
will of their constituents, they sh oud be
declared unworthy of the position they oc-
cupy and others put in their place. Whilst
we believe that every public officer should be
allowed a reasonable and respec table salary
we also believe that allowing exorbitant sal
aries, holds out too much inducements tc
men % seek office, and tends to lead to cor.
ruption, and should therefore be checked by
the people. JAMES SkELLY, Pres't.

One Dollar Year.

Some five or six persons have stopped the FAR
MER within the last three months because we would
not take dollar year for it. We cannot afford
to publish the FARMER tor that price. Offices
that pulish daily and make up their weekly from
the type used in the daily can stand that price,
butwc cannot. Our paper is more valuable to the
people OF Holmes county than any paper they can
get from abroad, We give all the general news,
the home news, the home advertisements, letters
from our own soldiers, the official advertisements
of The county and many other things of special
Importance TO the people of this county which
cannot be found in other papers. great part of
what is published in foreign papers is wholly with,
out interest to our people, while what we publish
comes directly home to all. We must use all our
friends alike, and those who cannot pay our usual
price must discontinue the paper. We are sorry
to part with them for they are men who usually
pay up promptly, but if they cannot conscentiousy
benefit us nor help to keep up live Democratic
paper in our midst we must bid them an eflecton
ate farewell.

A New Volume.

Last week completed the thirty-sixth year of
the HOLMES COUNTY FARMER This week its thir.
tyseventh year commences. From the establish.
ment Of the FARMER it has uninteruptcdy been
the official paper of the county. The subscription
list is now about 200 greater than it was one year
ago. The paper has always enjoyed State rep
utation as a sound and reliable Democratic organ.
How far VIC have succeeded in keeping up that
reputation is for our readers, not us, to Judge
We have endeavorcd to do our duty, and the great
increase in our subscription list, together daily
assurances ofapproval from prominent Democrats
incliaes us to the belief that no county paper in
the State enjoys fairer reputation than does the
FARMER. And, it should be so, for no county in
the State contains a trucr Democracy than does
"Litte Holmes" Sore heads and boilers can
make no impression on our ranks. They had that
made doubly sure last fall.

The plaintiff in this case is from Ashtabula
county; the defendant from Tuscarawas, The
first trial was for breach of marriage contract, in
which the plaintiff recovered a judgment OF 500.
The second was for bastardy aud the jury found
the defendant guilty, and the Court assessed a
penalty OF S400. Outsiders are always interested
in cases Of this kind, and many are on the lookout
for the precise place for the "la ugh to come in"

having been quite severe in his cross.examina.
ton of the plaintiff, upon the witness stand, ask
ed her whether any otter person than the defen'

her, which was answered in the negative; and
then Mr.. S. asked whether any approaches had
been made to herr She replied that approaches
had been made and that Mr.. STAMBAU0H was one
of the men who had nsulted her, Again it was

A Good Haul for Paint Township.

GEORGE f. NEWTON, our efficient County Au.
,ditor, has for long time been endcavoring to
s'un down s'mc school money wrongfully taken
from Paint Township. In July last Mr.. NEWTON
wentto Columbus and after considerable trouble
succeeded in the recovery of eight hundred and
thirty two dollars of principal of Section Sixteen
School Funds, and had the same placed to the
credit of Paint Township, where it properly be-
longed. A few days ago he received by express
five hundred and thirty dollars of the interest
thus recovering for Paint Township the nice sum
of thirteen hundred and sixty.two dollars, which,
had it not been for the untirng exertions of Mr.
NEWTON, would never haze been recovered His
investigations show that Paint Township has
been losing this money since l646 Mr.. N
thinks Saltcreek and Prairie Townships have los
n considerable sum of Section Sixteen Schoo
Funds and believes itcan be recovered Mr.
NEWTON is entitled to great credit for his zeal
perseverance, industry and ability in hunting VI
this matter.

We have quoted a para graph from the
London Market Lane express, exulting in
the promise then oiiorded by the wheat
crop of lc62. The number for March 2i,h
the latest now at hand-speaks in quite
different tone, and we think a fam for
eign demand for American breadstuiis is
almost inevitable, even in the event of {.
reasonably good crop in Great Britain, so
completely will the old stocks of grain,
both there aud on the continent, have
been exhausted before the next harvest is
gathered in We quote the following
notes on the week Immediately preceding
the 9th uit:-"lie past week has proved
the rouChest and wettist Of the winter
The ground, hitherto comparative dry, has
now become sodden, ana but very little
work could be wrought on the land. The
sowing OF agricultural seeds as we'll as of
sprIug corn is necessarily postponed and
the condition Of the wheat has 10 chance
of immediate Improvement. The light
soils. however, where the wheat has un-
earthed by frost, will lie solIditied, and
the com already sown viii have no lack
of moisture TO keep it forward with the
return Of more genial weather AS re-
spect the wheat plant generally, 1t yet
looks healthy. but some places are rather
rank. and there are reports OF wire worm
and slug in Essex, especially on the clays
on clover lays These extraordinary
changes should moderate our confidence
as to the coming crop, both as respects
time and quantity. - t5lthhy Gentlen.ap>
