and recognizes the hand of Providence in
the removal of Mr.. LINCOLN. In the one

A COrNTN' INFtRMARY. Few citizens
properly appreciate the pressing necessity
for an Infrmaryinthis county. One insane
person is now in the county JAIL two more
are about to be removed from the Asylum
to the county, and there arc several others
now confined in the county who will in u
short time be thrown upon it. 1t is highly
probable that in less than year six to eight
insane persons will be in the hands of the
Sheriff to be confined in the county jail -
Those familiar with the Jail, know that it is
utterly impossible to keep them in it. But
even if it contained the necessary room, it
Is an unfit place to keep them.
There are quite number Of paupers
supported by taxation, at a heavy expense,
who, if in an Indrmary, would earn their
keeping in working on the farm. Some of
the insane could earn considerable and be q
benefit to themselves if placed in such an
institution where the necessary care would
be ever present to guide and direct them.
The county has now OH hand building
fund of three thousand FIVE hundred dol
lars, which would go far in the purchase of
suitable farm. Small buildngsca can at first
be erected, and in such manner that addi-
tions can be built as necessity requires,
An lnfrmary is demanded by the interests
OF the taxpayers, the honor Of the county
pleads for it, and humanity to unfortunate
fellow beings prompts all to urge it.

In MouRStNG ALI our exchanges
Union and Democratic-comet to us this week
dressed in deep mourning-except the
Holmes County Farmer.
The above, from the Bucyrus Journal is
designed to convey the impression that We
justify the murder of the President When
the editor Of the ,Journol penncd it, he knew
we denounced the assassin, deplored the
death ofMr. LINCOLN as nationalcalamity.
and sympathised with his bereayod family.
The editor of the journal has wilfully
misrepreseuted at this time of general sor-
row for the purpose of venting his spleen
against political opponent One who
would do so is none too good to become an
assassin. Cowardice alone is oil that dis
qualities him TO commit any act We would
not have his contemplate, veuomous aud
wicked heart for all this world could give.
Should we ever attempt to deal thus un-
farely with a political opponent or any other
of Gods creation, We hope our hand
may be palsied in the act that our friends
may be saved the disgrace of having been
associated with one SO lost to every sense OF
honor.
