Killed and died of wounds,
To the People Of Wood County.

Are YOU aware of the situation We are now
Supervisors, in regard to our county and
town matters? Is it possible that our towns
can be cut down to a mere nothing, new ones
formed against the will of the people: Can
our Board have such will % act before the
wishes Of the people are expressed? Or are
they ignorant of the man they are transact
ing business with and do as his will directs,
to the injury of the people and county? If
they are not acquainted with this Dictator Of
the town of Mcclellan :? l will state few
truths for the benefit Of the Board and peo-
pie, SO that they may not be decoyed by this
oily being in mans clothes. After the fall
election OF 1852, in Springfield, it did not go
to suit this George Hilcs, and he made this
remark THAT Cd ID son-of a Ditch Of
the town of Springfield ought to be sunk" -
He has tried to do it. We will look little
further along. lie comes up for candidate
for County Supervisor. What says he then
Fellow citizens of the town of Springfield,
YOU have been misled to believe that wish
to injure your town. Not so; but rather ]
will pledge my acord and honor that I will
never help, aid or sign any petition for the
taking Of any part or division of the same in
the town or county, if | am elected one Of
the Supervisors, without the will of the peo-
with it warning from II. B. Philieo of Grand
Rapids, stating that Samuel Hiles had said in
the presence Of Judge Cate and others that
Geo. Hiles would divide up the town of
Springfield; and further, that if he was elec-
ted, such division would be made, and that
his election was certainty. The statement
was read to the people at the polls. Samuel
Hilcs being present, said that it was base
ialsehood; that he or George never said any
such tn ng, neither would they, and that he
would guarantee his word and honor that
George would not iRju ure the town or meddls
'ieA II IN its injury. But the town has been
divided. Who has done it: Net the people
nor the will of the people, but through Geo
Hiles it has been done. Who was the town
of Dexter? Geo Hiles. Who is the town
Of Mcclellan? Geo. Hiles. And the county
of Wood will be Ges. lilies if few more
proceedings like the late proceedings of the
County Board are enacted, and if two of its
members allow the one to rule them. The
plea tnat Dexter had not property eneugh to
keep up a town organization, was bat poor
one, fol any one posted knows that the three
firms (Hiles, Remington and Bentley control
property enough to buy the town of Spring
field, were it valued in proportion to that
town. These are facts as they stand.

per comr,cnding the consistency Of the editor
of the Pilot in supporting Fremont, seems to
have excited his wrath. He opens his whole
battery on US. We survive. His big qen is
that we supported Fremont in 1856 VIXEN he
was Il KnowN Nothing, according to oar own
confession Yes; we voted for him then, be
cause he was the only candidate presented
wko was opposed to the aggrcssions CT the
slave arIstocraey Of the South and because
his opponent was in close communion with
JEFF. Davis, Toombs, Floyd, and the men
whose treason plunged our country into sea
of blood But Hawlcy voted for him for an
other reason. HawIcy was then an avowed
know-Nothing, and gave his support 70 Ere
moat because he was in part pledged to the
principles of that party.
Fremont has at last unmaskcd, and stands
forth in lis true character, as the most uu
principled and cheapest of demagogues Him
self the author Of the first measure Of eman-
cipation and confscation, he was urged fOg
the Presidency by the most ultra abolition
lists, for whom Lincoln was too tame and even
Chase not sufficiently radical. He owes the
empty honor which he at present enjoys to
the Influence of this class of men. But nc
sooner does he see that there is chance of
securing some assistance from the conserya-
tive element than he shamelessly faisiScs mis-
own record, spits upon the men who have
made him, and writes a letter which Vallan
disham could endorse, with the exception Of
two or three sentences. And Hawley wants
the Copperheads TO accept the bid, and take
JcsSie's husband at his price.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.-A pain
full accident, resulting in the death of a little
daughter of John P. koebler, of Westford, oc-
Cured on Thursd.y last, by the accidental
discharge of a gun. Mr.. koebler had been
out LanIing, and upon returning handed the
gun to his little son to carry into the house,
first taking off the caps that no accident
should occur. The little fellow snapped the
gun two or three times on his way TO the
house, and upon reaching the door, he point
ed it at his sister and snapped it again, when
1t vent off, the contents entering the breas.
OF the little girl, killing her instantly. She
was about three years of age. 1t is strange
why the gun should go off with no cap on
and stranger still that it did not go off before
it was pointed at the girl, as it had been
snapped several times. 1t is one of those
strange fates for which no human being car
account--Bsarer Dam argus.

THE WALL STREET NICT1Ms.-Lct
California succumb and Pixies Peak hide its
diminished head. Wall street and the pur-
licus thereof are the true Dorado. No occa-
sion to dig there. Walk in, gentlemen, and
make your piles What shall it be-Erie or
Harlem? Or perhaps you prefer cinnabar,
or gold, or coal Take your choice. Lift up
your fingers, make your bids and take at the
flood the tide that leads to fortune Every
day the throng Of spectators increases on
the Rialto. Outsiders are drawn in bv hun
drcds and faster than prairie fire the deliri-
um speads. Meanwhile the cool old heads
whose purses long and who can afford to
bide their time, i,o:l III with a calm smile.
Now and then They make demonstration
among the grcenhorls, and shortly afterwards
a cleaned-out crowd leaves 1.-The street; aad
vanishes into dimeless obscurity. Its vacant
place, however, is quickly occupied by new
throng Of imbeciles, and thus the pleasant
game of financial snap dragon goes on. 1t is
amusing to q mere looAer-on in Vienna to see
the stock Of a bankrup. railroad selling at
pretty nearly the same price, dollar for dol
lar, as minted gold. We don't pretend to
know how the thing is done, the art of turn
ing moonShine into money being touch
above our alchemy; but VIC have a shrewd
snspicien that some of the gilded bubbles
which are AT present floating SO saily in the
atmosphere Of Change have pretty nearly
fulfilled the purpose of the gentlemen who
sent them up. AS long as fools will supply a
soap basis for the manufacture of such ephe-
mera, they will doubtless be made to soar and
shine But by and by, when Fooidom take
the alarm, and Panic pricks the airy nothing,
there will be rather a nice time in Gamble
town. Meanwhile We advise all verdant per-
sons who may be contemplating cross-cut to
wealth and independence by the Wall street
route, to walk down the thoroushfare with
their money in their hands and drop the same
into the slip at the lower end. This plan will
save them world of anxiety and all the time
they would otherwise waste in getting rid of
it in ''the street"

$1,000 REWARD.

The above reward will be given to any per-

colds, whooping cough asthma, and consump-
ton, which is equal to DR.. Strickland's Melli-

the above complaints, also splitting of blood
and night sweats. One fifty cent bottle is
sufficient for any one to try. The worst cas-
es Of chronic cough, asthma whooping- cough
and primary cases of consumption are cured
by DR.. Strickland's Mellhuous Cough Balsam.
1t can be had at any druggists. 1t is differ
