CIRcLEvILLE, Feb. 10th, 1865.

| CIRCLEvILLE, Feb. 10th, 1865.
The Warm Air Furnace invented and
manufactured by Mr.. Peter Martin, of Gin
cinnati, was put into the Union school
building Of this city in November last, and
thus far it has given entire satisfaction. 1t
surpasses other furnaces in the following
important particulars: 1t has, compara-
lively a greater heating surface; produces
alarger volume of heat with given amount
Of fuel; the condition of the air in respect
to temperature, moisture and purity, is su-
perior; the admission of cold air, the sup
ply of warm air for the several rooms, and
the fires, are more easily regulated.
To avoid scorching and decomposing the
air, as is done, to some extent by other hot
airfprnaees, and to secure to each ION an
abundant supply of pure, fresh air, warmed
to apleasant temperature, as well as to pro-
tect the wrought-iron air-fues from
the effects of the fire, it is essential that
the warm air-flues leading to the school
rooms, should be at least twelve
inches in diameter. This will insure the
influx of such large and rapid current OF
fresh air as to prevent the wrought-iron
flues from being goverheated, and thus secure
the durability of the furnace, and keep the
warm air in healthful condition. 1t is
deemed proper to State in this connection,
that our Board of Education was induced
to order Mr.. Martins Furnace, because two
other furnaces had been previously used in
our school edifice without satisfactory re-
suits, and because, after careful examina-
tion of large number of furnaces and
other modes of warming school houses and
but also in Eastern cities. Mr.. Martins was
believed to be decidedly the best.

", Columbus, Ohio.
,-,r MONDAY MORNING, April IL, 1865.
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased Almighty God
IN his Infinite wisdom to remove the Chief
Magistrate OF our country from time TO
eternity, and to shroud the great Joy of the
nation in the pail of mourning; and
| WHEREAS, BY the death Of the President
we are ,bereft of one of the most esteemed

tragic death of the Chief Magistrate Of our
country has filled US with deep sorrow; and
that with heavy hearts we tender our last
tribute of respect to, his sacred remains,
mingling our tears with those Of the ma
tion'at his untimely end. -s-'i
Resolued, That through the death of fAbra-
ham Lincoln the North has lost one of her
purest patriots and wisest couiselors, the
South one of her best friends and most
generous eonciliators, and the great Amer
lean Union one of her most successful and
noblest Presidents.
Resolued, That in our great sorrow we
will still look up through the gloom that
envelops US to Him who directeth the des-
TIMES OF Nations, and who, though often in
mysterious manner, we know, dOeth all
things well and turneth the evil intentions
of men to good.
Resolued, Thatalthough the fiendish hand
of the assassin has stripped his mortal re-
mains of life, he still lives, lives in the
hearts of millions of loyal citizens as one
of the proudest monuments of Christian
heroism and philanthropy-and also, we
trust, Ia better world beyond the tomb.
Resolued, That Clio Hall be draped In
becoming manner, and that we wear the
badge of mourning for the usual period of
six weeks. "
Resolved, That copy of these resolutions
be sent TO the sorely striken and bereaved
family ofthe deceased President, expressing
our sincere sympathy in their sore afflc-
tion, and the earnest prayer that Provi-
dence may grant them and the nation grace
and strength to bow submissively to His
divine will. t#.gE COMMITTEE.

did MT re enlist that he would reduce the

that he would distribute privates amongst
other regiments. 1t appears he used every
device that his heartless ingenuity could
could invent to prevent ment who have
honestly served their term of three wears
from coming home. and he even did re-
duce the non commissioned officers to the
ranks, who would not re enlist. But "a
sooon as his owe term OF service would let
him out, be resigned and came home -
He lives at Iowa City, and ii this report
Of him be true, he ought to be mustered
into the service as private for another
term. This officer is unworthy Of the

~. Com. Porter deserves we'll of ths
country for his successful attack upon
Fort Fisher. And proud of victorie:
wherever or by whomsoever gained the
country will not fail to give TO each of it's
successful som, the measure of praise due.
Farrsgut is victor and hero and the
nation honors him. Porter rs the victor
and naval hero of Fort Fisher and the peo-
pie have no disposition to withhold from
him the glory he has won thereby. And
yet they protest against Commodore Por-
ter challenging their hosannahs by arro-
CANT and bombastic dispatches. He has
Seen very unfortunate with the pen, how
ever aimirable with the sword. His pol
icy has been in marked contrast with the
unassuming aud unobtrusive modestv of
Admiral Farragut, aud the difference has
been immensely in the atter's favor.
The maliguaucy of his spirit toward
Butler, so potent in everything he has
done or written since the first attack upon
Fort Fisher, has not served to enhance
David d. Porter's popularity with the
masses who have seen and. .still see in Gen
Butler. despite any aud all errors, an eff
Ger who has rendered valuable service to
the country and the cause. We hope for
his own sake that Commodore Porter will
not feel called upon to publish any further
dispatches. unless he can make of them
the cficial record Of facts and not inflated |
fulminstious against living generals or
dead marines. "Porter and him glori
fed is refrain that Porter should leave
others to sing.
Does his offensive pronunciamentos
awaken criticism? Il may ind in his sue
cesses little to praise and in such fiascos
