A NEw NEWSPAPER. IF not contra.
band intelligence we may say, it is given
out that Mr.. JonN CAsKY has purchased a
Printing Press, aud Is about to buy type
with which to start another Republican
newspaper here early in the coming spring.
There amt much left Of the Republican
party in this county and we suppose the idea
of Mr.. G. and his friends in starting another
Republican paper here, is to save it from
utter annihilation. Since GRIFFITH and
his clique took it in charge, the Democratic
majority in the county has nearly doubled
itself But how two Republican papers are
to live where one has only the shadow of u
support is to US mystery
We shall welcome Mr.. G. back into the
fraternity because we know that whilst at
his hands, the Democrats may receive hard
blows yet they will be fairly dealt, and instead
of trying to pull down the town by system
of lying, he will try to build it up.

The Philadelphia Age gives an account of /;
most brilliant torch-light procession and en-
thusiastic Democratic meeting at Borden
town, New Jersey, on the evening of the
Bird inst. After noticing the iluminations
transparencies, notices, ETC., the Age says
"rhc principal speaker of the evening wa
young CowEN, of Ohio, who did II in true Dem
ocratic style, and in the most able manner, Hi
speech was pronounced by all who heard II on,
of the best of the whole campaign"

PosT OFFICE Our old aud esteemed
friend, JOnN CoRBUs, is making an effort
to procure the Post Office at this place. He
belongs to the Ankcny clique, who are bitter
enemies to the present Postmaster and his
friends. Squire CoRBUs is n most. odrot
poltician--hc invariably votes with the
winning party Two years ago he voted
with the Democracy and we carried Ohio,
since then he voted against US aud we have
been beaten.
CAsKY, the present Postmaster, is aud
always has been opposed to the Democratic
party. His father and brothers were Dem.
ocrats, but john took his instructions from
oldJonN SAXToN, of Canton, and has fought
the Democracy all his life. Some twenty
years ago he started an opposition paper il
this place, and he so managed as to build
up considerable party, and kept the Dem
ocratic majority in the county down to
thousand, or less, so long as he had charge
of the paper.
We are inclined to the belief that CORFU,
will win. Thisist the day for political weather
cocks CAsKY has made good Postmaster
but qualification is not essential in the ap
pointmcnt ofLTNcoLN's officials.
Judge WELKER being the Member o
Congress elect, the whole matter will res
with him. We don't care how much the,
quarrel about tit is dog eat dog so far a
Democrats are concerned but we have som,
curiosity to know how Judge WELKER vii
r DISPOSE of the matter.

GREAT JUBILEE.-Next Thursday being
the anniversary of the birth Of ECLAMpsUs,
the founder of the Order of Sons of Malta,
will be celebrated everywhere by all brethren
'in good condition" According to ancient
history and the traditions of the Order
ECLAMpsUs was born on the oath of Nov
ember A. NJ 1913. His first movement
after coming into the world was to give the
grand hailing sign, which has been hand
ed from generation to generation without
being divulgcd to the outer world up to the
present day. ECLAMpsUs founded the Or
der on the 18th anniversary of his BIRTH
JULIUS CESAR was the first one initiated
into its sublime mysteries. He was made
Supreme Grand Commander, and immedi-
ately proceeded to introduce the Order
among the ancient Brtons. The "wel bal
anced minds" ofthc island were immediatly
captivated by its sublime and impressive
rites, and it was not long until the power of
the Druids begun to wane before its grand
and ancient inculcations. All the Kings of
England, with one or two exceptions, since
the days of Alfred the great were mem
bcrs of this Order. The Egyptian Pyramids
were built undert its auspices, and it is clearly
shown by the traditions of the Assyrans
that CADMUs, who carried and introduced
letters into Greece, was one of the most zeal
Gus Highcockolorums of this same ancient
and honorable brotherhood. This fact has
been ascertaincdb by the record of the Knights
Of the Duck S nest degree, of which ne is the
attributed founder. The "Wangs' of China,
it is well known, are chosen from the men,
bers of this illustrious degree. We make
mention of these notorious facts in order to
illustrate the historic interest and tradition
AIRY glory which attaches to the occasion of
the approaching celebration.
1t has been the custom for many centuries
to spend the day in hunting feasting, and
dancing; but out of respectto ABELINcoLN' S
Sunday, the brethren throughout the United
States will on this occasion dispense with the
feasting and dancing, and commemorate the
day in hunting. Colonel w. G. McDowELI
is the Grand Sycamore for this county, and
he is making ample preparation for "high
time among all the brethren who shave
not departed The Colonel has secured a
permit from General HEINTzELMAN for the
members of the order to buy all the amuni-
lion necessary for the occasion. He has al
ready secured Al dogs and expects to obtain
about 60 more. 1t is hoped each brother
will bring his dog muzzled, so as to prevent
accident The hunt will commence at pre- =
cisely o clock and l3 minutes A. NJ. 1t is
requested that the brethren pay strict atten
ton to the time for the laugh to come in. 4"
The Colonel S dog DICK will lead the van and
keep the procession steady"
The Sublime Grand Council of Ten will
go on horseback, headed by Col. N +. joss
and GEORGE REED, with Robson FRENCH
and j. L. Maxwell bringing up the rear,
JOINS pocket full of indictments against
brethren who are ''crapulated'
All those who wish to see the procession
start should be where the new school house
is being built at the appointed time

fell where it was aimed, and the fires of
Miss Browns wrath began to be kindled.-
She impulsively sought the Committee
whose names had been attached to these
lnvidious articles and demanded redress.-s
But the committee having never signed
their nam es to said articles, and half of them
having never attended the examination at
all, Miss Brown began to speculate upon the
moral code and the ninth commandment,
and finally came to the conclusion that she
would plead her own cause before the pub
lie, Consequently when an other aunive:-
sary rolled around, she came upon the plat.
form and m ade the subjoined explanations:
FELLOW CITIZENS AND FRIENDS; I consider it
but an act of Justice to myself and school that
submit for your reflection the following state
ments: A great deal has been said directly and
indirectly by q certain class, IN our community
in prejudice of my school and method Of teach
ing, &c. For the benefit of those who have so
far busted themselves, would simply state that
my plan oflnstructlon Is the same upon which all
the good and celebrated schools Of the eAst are
conducted, and until the wise people of Granville
can prove me better plan, l shall continue to
maintain it. AS for my exhibitions, have
never aimed that they should be ''t6Sts scholar
ship, or eXcellencies in any branch ofeducation."
My object in giving exhibitions has been to inn
press upon the minds ofyoung ladies in pleasing
and attractive manner, classical and historical
truths also to make the closing exercises of the.
school such as will confer the greatest amount of
pleasure upon Patrons and friends. With these
explanations trust the people will be hence
forth forever satisfied. and willing to tolerate
another exhibition which we design giving to-
night. My object The present year is to impress
the great facts in trelife of Washington together
with the prominent events connected with the
discovery, the settlement, and the Independence.
of our country, embracing historic period Of
about three centuries-from 1892 to 1792-upon
the minds and hearts of the young, In my esti-
nation, the great ideas connected with the in
and development of civilization and
Christianity in the New W orld, in their nature
aud results, are of such moment to mankind,
that they should be made prominent in every
system of education. and be instilled in the
minds, and embalmed in the memories, of the
youth of our land. Perhaps other teachers can
suggest better plans to perpetuate the truths, to
interest and instruct young ladies in their priv
ileges and duties, and to hold up to their view,
the character and career of Washington. If 80
let them bring them forward, and they will meet
with my hearty adoption"
Having thus spoken, Miss Brown courtesied
and sat down. and if there have been any
made since, we have yet to learn
them. Should we hear of any more we will
lay them before you in our next issue g.,
TITUS.

LIFE The WORLD OvER Peter Of

Palace of Pitt, Ferdinand II particularly
admired the representation of weeping

artist merely depressed the corner of the
lips and the inner extremity OF the eye

danger of bursting his sides with laughter,
who in moment before seemed breaking
his heart with weeping.
If this be true in the world Of living men
slight, very slight are the causes that make
