tisement, in another place, of the Ohio
State Asylum for Idiots. The institution
was organized on the basis of . Law pssssd
By the Legislature on the l7th Of April,
1857. In 1861, q joint resolution of that
body, authorized the Trustees to receive
and hold land money and building mate
rails, for the benefit of said institution. In
March, 1884, the Legislature appropriated
$4,000, 70 be used in the purchase Of e site
and the erection Of suitable buildings for
the Asylum ; and last April, they spPro-
priated SB0,OO0 more for the same purpose,
Al the same time the Trustees were
Authorised 70 purchase, or receive by gift,
o tract Of land suitable for q site for said
Asylum, and in such locality in the State,
considering healthfUlness Of situation,
facility Of sccess, prices of living, and cost
of land and building materials, rs such
Trustees shall find most desirable and best
suited Tor the purpOssbb.said Institution.
The Trustees Of this institution would b
happy to receive propositions which any
persons may feel inclined to make for

"THE COURSE OF True LOVE- N1vER DID,"
&o.-Jsmes ]. HolbrOok, indicted for biga-
my, was brought before Judge FOots yes
terday, and changed his plea from not
guilty to guilty. It will be remembered
that Jeems and his former "wife" were
charged last Spring with the crime of in
fanticide. In q short time after that brave
exploit was achieved, he went out about
fifty miles from this city, and, unbeknOwn
to wife No. l, took unto himself another
bosom-companion, who, in turn, was igno-
rent of his matrimonial status. Perhaps she
regarded Jeems a piece of perfect purity,
although this is next to impossible, for she
has 9 very bad character herself. How
ever, she took him for better, for worse,
and behold the matrimonial fabric faded
away into thin air, yesterday at the bsre
utterance of the magic evil word, 'guilty."
Jim stood upright, chewing gum, and
chieAy notable for his long, slim, tallow-
candle-y legs, which need dipping again,
and for his spe- head covered with long,
sallow hair arranged with numerous cow
ticks and crowns. He took his seat beside
'vife" No. 2,-wife no longer. She bowed
her head upon q hand profusely tricked
out with large, Haunting brass rings, and
seemed to weep. She asked the privilege
of accompanying Jeems to the Jail. The
curtain fell.
