not mere conjectures. but facts, established by the
experience Of the past year. That first little stock
Of goods brought here a little over a year ago, was
pronounced by some a rash experiment, but it
did pay, and out of 1t has grown a trade amply re-

and beneficial to the whole community, and still
the cry is for more men and more goods. No kind
of business is overdone, but in every department

to come here and engage in business. We have
no use for "speculators" so-ealled-we purposely

i. Douglas s. Co, Machtnists.

Since our last issue we were shown through
the machine shop of the gentlemen whose
names head this article. 1t is situated in
the south part of own on Canal street, East
of Nam. The building Is fifty feet long,
forty feet wide, and two stories high. In it
we found the different machines necessary
for the carrying on of the business; among
them were four turning lathes, two planning
machines, one self feeding drill press, be-
sides a complete set of tools, such as are re-
auired in fitting, &c. They employ con-
stantly fifteen hands, and manufacture en-
gines, saw mills of all kinds, fax brakes, &c.
The saw mills manufactured by this firm
have a reputation second to none in this
country, Their stock of patterns is very
large. They have FIVE complete sets of en-
CINE patterns, ranging from sixteen to ff-
ty horse power. The demand for their
work is excellent, and is principally from
this section, and Western Pennsylvania
They are now manufacturing a fifty horse
power engine for d. H. Wilder for his pail
factory at Cory, Penn. The business of
this firm has for some time been steadily in
increasing, so much so that their present
quarters have become inadequate and more
room is needed. They are now building a
a foundry on the opposite side of the Canal,
to be connected with the machine shop. 1t
will be ready to go into operation abOutthe
of next month, at which time they will
be prepared to manufacture almost every
thing in the shape of machine castings.
The senior member of this firm, Nj. T.
Douglas, is a practical machinist, who has
been engaged in the business in this town
for more than sixteen years, and has estab
lished an enviable reputation. The junior
members, Messrs. James h. White and II.
Z. Hapgood, are young men who give the
their personal superintendance,
md are well and favorably known in this
community.

A few weeks ago, a man travelling under
the name of James s. Sanford, made his ap-
pearance in our town, bringing with him a
patent -four sitter, which he proposed to in
troduce to our citizens. Having secured
board with Mr.. William Gay, he at once
commenced opperations-selling his sitter
and pilfering. He broke open the trunk of
Mr.. Geo. Henry, one of the boarders, who
was away from town at the time, and took
from it a new suit of clothes, and wore them
for some time, and was wearing them when
Mr.. Henry returned to town last Saturday
evening. Sanford soon learning the arrival
of Henry, knew his stealing would be found
out in the morning; and that night, after all
had retired, he went for the pockets of the
boarders. From james Garret, he took a
silver watch and fifteen dollars; from a man
named Thomas, a pocket book containing
four dollars; and from Mr.. Danforth, five
dollars. Leaving the house, he made tracks
for parts unknown. ESQ 9lI

Nh EDITOR "A new revision of an old motto.
reads: what cannot be endured. must be cured.
The, burden of our school examinations. has
long been felt. Tedious journeys to Warren,
through mud and rain. long hours spent in unrav-
cling knotty questions, Hastings. and headaches.
form episodes Ia many a teachers life, never to be
forgotten. Not that our teachers, as a class, are
unqualified or Incompetent, nor do they shrink
from a thorough, impartial examination. where
they expect justice done them. Commissioner
White, in his report, speaks quite fatteringly of
Trumbull county schools and their teachers.
In other States. professional certificates are
given to those who have taught, acceptably, a GER
tain number of terms. and whose qualifications
award to them a number one certificate. Can not
our six months system bedone away with, for those
who have earned for themselves reputations as
teachers? suppose they were to pay, each, a con-
tin0enf dHnaity of.hfty cents, payable semi-annually?
school law cannot be altered, can the matter not
be compromised, so that the inconvenience may
be a little more equally. distributedf The law

The expenses of three are much more easily paid
than the eX senses of thirty.
Again, written examinations are open TO serious
objections. Oral examinations not only give the
teacher q better chance Of telling what he knows,
but the examiner. also. can better judge of the
ability to impart knowledge. It is hardly more
than natural, that in selecting half a dozen ques-
tons, more or less, by which to determine the
qualifications of 9 large class, some knotty, crook
ed. puzZling questions should creep in; No doubt
the applicant has ample time for thought; but Mr..
Editor, when you know q thing-sure-how many
hours will it take you to make up your mind
whether you are right or wrong? when you do NOT
know, how much ransacking of the brain will It
take to elucidste the facts?
The law requires of teachers that they be found
competent to teach certain branches. Are Mental
