COUGHs, BRONCHITIS. The entire free
dom from all deleterious ingredients render
"Brown's Bronchial Troches, or Cough
and Voice Lo2enges, a safe remedy for the
most delicate female, or youngest child, and
has caused them to be held in the highest
esteem by Clergymcn, Singers and Public
Speakers generally.
BULLY FOR PRAIRlE.-Prairic is one Of
the townships recently redeemed by the De-
mocracy. They have carried it for the last
two or three years by very small majoritics.

Against the Bonds,

No APOLOGY. Much of the space III
this weeks paper is takenu up with the great
speech recently delivered in Congress by
Judge BLISS. 1t truthfully rectcs the fol-
lies and crimes of the abolition party, and
it is powerful vndication of the Democ-
racy. Every man should read it carefully
We offer no apology for the space it occu-
pies in to-day's paper.
For LINCoLN.-A very emphatic LIN
coin man was in town a few days ago. He
was no other that JIM Mccoy, the abolition
candidate for Representative in Coshocton
County last fall. He was positive Of I'm
coin S election, and said: ''If Jesus Christ
was to come down and run for President
Lincoln would beat him Jun is a favor
ite with the dccency party.
QUoTAs FULL.-Under the last call Wal
nutcreck, Knox, Ripley, Monroe and Wash
ington townships have filled their quotas
Hardy has furnished eighteen. 1t was sup
posed that would fill our quota; but it wa,
afterward ascertaned that we were assessed
for twenty-three. 1t is, however, suppos
ed that we will get a credit for veterans suf
fcient to make up the deficiency. If so
some arrangement should be made to pay
those veterans a local bounty.
TRAIN Your DAUGHTERRs.-Moth
train your daughters tn understand the du
ties of the household, and to know the the
cries of domestic pursuits, if you woul'
have them become good wives and uscfil
members of society. Instruct them how t.
make light and wholesome bread and tc
them what most of you know to be true
that the Chemical Saleratus is the article t,
use in its production. 1t is made at FoiI
port, n. Y, by d. B. DeLand & Co., an
sold by respectable dealers.
SOMETHING NEw.-A strange preacho
belonging to the Methodist Episcop;
Church happened to be in this place o
Saturday last, and complied with an invita-
ton to preach ON Sunday evening. And
strange as it may seem, he preached an abl
and eloquent gospel sermon, such as
Christian Minister of the Gospel should -
1t being so different from those usual
