A HAUNTED Houss.-slrange noises are

A HAUNTED HousB.-slrange noises are
heard of nights at the house OF Mr.. Graves,
residing little east of Quincy Centre, usu-
ally In or about the sleeping roomof his
little son, abodt twelve years old. IL has
caused quite an excitement In The neighbour
hood, and any have been there to ascertain
the cause, and some have continued their
investigations during the night intervals,
but their precise location could notbe as
certatned-they seem TO be In different parts
of the rbom--nor Is the cause satisfsctori-
" nscertalned. Some say II is the work of
tho splrits, as Whenever the voices are heard
n nervous twitohinG of the boy's muscles is
observed, whether sleeping orwsking t0c-
casionaily, when the boy goes out, stones
are tn own at him by Invisible persons,
which fall near tn him, sometimes hitting
the house, but no. him. No one seems to
be present at such times exceptsuch as are
there for the purpose Of detecting the trick;
yet, straBge TO say, no one has yet been seen
to throw one of those stones, which seem to
he flying at or towards the boy at all times
of the day when he walks out, and many
of them have been picked up and preserved
in pile, but no one has as yet hit him -

DR.. 5. calls the attention Of the public to the
following advantages Of his improved system;
lbt The teeth Of his manufacture will never
corrode nor change color by any acids, and arc
three fourths lighter than any other.
"a. No teeth or roots need be extracted, as the
artificial ones can be inserted over them.
I'd. The roots will be made inofensiye and
never to ache.
4th. No temporary teeth are needed, as per-
manent ones can be made Immediately, thereby
preserving the natural expression Of the face,
which, under the old system, is frequently dis-
figured.
9th. This work has been fully tested for over
Ave years by many OF the first chemists and
physicians OF this and the old country.
DR.. S. has also invented white indestructi-
BILE metal nlling, with which the most sensitive
teeth can be allied without pain, and can build
up a perfect sound tooth on any side roots, which
will last through lifetime.

Iron Interests Of the Country.

On the oath ultimo the ''Third Quarterly
Meeting of the American Iron and Steel As
sociaiion" convened at Chicago, ILL.,, which
was presided over by the President, Z. B.
Ward, of Detroit, on which occasion all the
States interested in the production of the raw
material and in its manufacture were duly
represented, which remained in session two
days. and has given the country its proceed
ings, which in our estimation, in point of i'm
portanceis inferior to no other industrial in
terest Of the country. After a careful inves-
tigation Of the proceeding of the meeting, we
present the following as an analysis of the
conclusions at which it arrived, together with
the reasons on which they are founded, which
embodes q state, Of facts not only new but
startling to the country, that until now "a
branch of industry which had been consid'
eredin prosperous condition, is on the eve
lnf ruin by. the impolitic action of one Of the
Pomeroy weekly telegraph. [volume] (Pomeroy, Meigs County, Ohio) 1860-1866, 1865-06-22

nea. On Wednesday last, delegates of the
loyal people of Ohio convened at Columbus
to put in nomination suitable persons to be
supported the coming annual election, for
Governor and other State officers, the proceed
ings of which body we have not been advised
down to the time of going to press Although
we are not prepared to speak advisedly as to
who will be the successful nominee for the Of
fee of Governor, this much we are prepared
to say: that it will not be Governor Brough,
our late popular and successful Chief Magis-
trate, whom we are sorry to learn has for sew
eral reasons declined a second canvas for this
position, by letter under date the 10Th inst,
and which, we regret, the crowded state -four
columns will not permit us to publish the cur
rent week. t.-'
The retirement Of Gov Brough from the
candidacy for such Office it is supposed, and
indeed will in all probability, open the way for
a spontaneous and unanimous nomination of
the distinguished soldier and patriot, Major
General Cox, of this State, who has served
the country SO faithfully since the outbreak of
the rebellion We have no personal knowl-
edge of General Cox, and only know him as
one of the successful and distinguished Cen
erals who have attained eminent distinction
| in the defence of the Union.
| In this connection the editors of the 'Cincin-
natl Gazette, who appear to be thoroughly
posted in this behalf, say: ~.
General Cox is lawyer by profession, a
gentleman of high order of talent and cul-
ture, a statesman of experience in the Ohio
Senate man inflexible in political princi-
pies, and q soldier of distinction He has
served in the field from the outbreak of the
war without intermission. He went through
the campaigns in West Virginia, and for a
long time held the Valley of the Kanawha
and Gauley against the repeated efforts the en-
eny made to recover it Hewas recommends
ed by Gen. Mcclellan for promotion, for con-
duct at the battle of South Mountain. Thence
he returned to West Virginia, and from thence
went to East Tennessee He served through
the Atlanta campaign, and his brilliant con
duct in the capture Of Wilmington is fresh in
the public recollection. He is soldier of a
brilliant reputation, q statesman of high prin
ciples and gentleman without reproach-
His nomination will strengthen the party and
maintain the high character of.the Governor
shin of Ohio"
