The 0berlin Ne1Cs has the following
personal items: DR.. Titus Chapman, an
old resident of Oberlin, was buried last
Sunday. Chauncey D. Brown, a gradu-
ate Of Oberlin in the class of 60, died in
South Salem, O., on the 18th of April.
He had been engaged in the ministry, and
afterward served in the army as an artil-
lery officer. Rev. Palmer Sets and his
wife, formerly of Oberlin, were on the
steamer City of Memphis at the time of
its loss by explosion a few weeks since,
but escaped with the loss of their baggage.
The Elyris Democrat says the prepara-
SONS for the increased business resulting
from the change of the railroad TO Elyria
via Oberlin, are progressing fast. The
company has nearly finished the engine
house and turn-table, and the new repair
shop has been commenced. An office for
the track master has been built adjoining
the east tank, and the new freight house
will be up soon. The iron has all arriv-
ed. and will be laid as soon as possible.
The east half of the track is laid, and the
remainder will be laid from the Oberlin
end.
The monument erected TO the memory
of Hon. j. NJ. Vincent has been completed
and placed over his remains in the Elyria
Cemetery. 1t consists of a square column
of italian marble, resting on a base of the
material, and surmounted by an urn
properly and tsstefully draped.

The Primary ELECTIONS.

We have returns from six of the nine
townships not heard from yesterday morn
ing. Two of these Olmsted and Boston, each
casting one vote, go for Parsons. -Four,
Dover, Norton, Springfield and Stow,
each casting one vote, go for Spalding.
Three are yet TO be heard from-Frank-
lin l, Green l, Northampton .. 1t is con-
fdently believed that all these will go for
Parsons.
Later returns from gainesville and
Hudson, which Sundays returns give
to Parsons, show that they have gone for
Spalding.
The Second, Third, and Fifth Wards,
which were carried for Spalding by fla
grant and undisguised fraud, will be eon-
tested, and proofs that Parsons delegates
were elected by a majority of the Union
votes, so manifest that no one can fail
to be convinced by them, will be laid be-
fore the committee on credentials. These
wards have eleven delegates.

m. Fraud, IN tbeCIty EIectIOu.

Anen the deFdCuJ udy aAteI Oagi"C
cused the friends of Mr.. Parsons of nego-
tiating for Copperhead support we
branded the charge as false, and warned
our readers that it was made only as a
cover for an audacious attempt on the
part Of the Senter clique to carry this city
for Mr.. Spalding by an avalanche OF
Irish Democratic votes. Any me who
stood at the polls of the Second, the Third
and the Fifth Wards, on Saturday night,
will bear us witness how sadly true our
prediction has been proved. We assert,
and intend 10 prove, that eDeTy n Of
those yards a0as carried for SPaLdiMg By
C~opperhead potes, by imported UOtes and
bv double votes. Here are the facts.
They are not bare assertions, but they
will be sustained by the sworn statements
of our best citizens, who witnessed them
with mingled shame and indignation
The Second Ward was carried fol-
Spalding by twenty-five majority. II
will be proven that at least seventy-fye
Democratic votes were polled- 1t can be
proven that votes which were challenged
and rejected were afterward secretly
dropped into the bsllot-box by one of the
Judges. There was no poll-list kept, and
everything was helter-skelter.
In the Third WErd one hundred ana
ninety more votes t0ere pOILed than for Goa
last fall. These outside votes were
thrown by Irishman, every on of them
Democrats, led to the polls by the State
Center Of the Fenians, a notorious Spal-
ding man. Over two hundred Irish votes
were thus polled- No pOll-list was kept,
and the judges were overwhelmed by this
army of Democrats.
In the Fifth Ward the same mockery
was enacted. 4 hundred more Uotes aoere
poHed than last gear for Cor. The
leading Democratic politicians of the
war we're busily at work for Spalding.
andit was by the Democratic votes which
they influenced that the ward was carried
for Spslding.
These facts are not random assertions.
They ara susceptible of proof. They will
be proven. The proofs will go before the
Convention, and we call upon it to set
the seal Of its condemnation upon these
practices. If it winks at outrages like
these-if it condones them by silence 1t
will inhict a g%rievous wound upon the
purity of the Union party, and sanction
a precedent for all fraud and every cor
ruption.

General Knrfs-

After announcing himself, with some
what of a flourish, as a candidate for Con.
gress General Voris withdrew from the
canvass q fortnight ago, and devoted al
his energies 10 secure the reelection of Mr
Spslding. For this purpose, our ex-can.
didate ran on the Spalding ticket for del
egGte to the Congressional convention i.
the second iOard of akron. The fact that
he WIS defeated by g vote of two to one
in his own ward shows that the good peo-
pie of Akron cannot be influenced ever
by so setive a politician as General Voris
TO lend their support to the continuance
in power of the Senter- johnson clique.

Massachusetts, with all her pre-emi
hence in civilization and education, ha,
some peculiar wsys of doing things, that
look queerly from a distance. Not long

less, after the establishment of these facts,
the Cambridge school committee resolved
that the case did not require any action

AMERICAN WATCHES.
REASONS WHY THE
AM ERIC A WA G n
Made at wALTHAM, MASS.

Is ThE BESI.
1t is made on the best principle. Its frame is
composed of sOLID PLATES. No jar can inter
fere with the harmony of its working and no sud
den shock can damage its machinery. Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Qtself IA
nous for its novelty, as well as for its effective
ness) and is therefore proper y made. The watch
what all mechanism should be-ACCURATE,
SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECOHOMICAL. Ex-
cept some high grades, too costly for general use,
foreign watches are chiefly made by women and
boys. Such watches are composed Of several hun
dred pieces, screwed and riveted together, and re-
quire constant repsirs to keep them in any kind of
order. All persons who have carried "ancres -
''lepires'' and English Patent LEVERS are per-
fectly well aware OF the truth Of this statement.
At the beginning Of our enterprise, more than
ten years ago, it was our first object to make a
thoroughly good low priced watch for the million,
to take the place OF these foreign impo3ltions-the
refuse of foreign factories-which were entirely
uDsaleable at home and perfectly worthless every
where.
How well we have accomplished this may be IN
derstood from the fact, that after so many years
Of public trial, We nov make o Z THAN HALF
OF A THE WATCHES SOLD IN H UNITED
STATES, and that no others have ever given such
universal satisfaction. While this department. OF
our business is continued with increased f~.cilities
for perfect work, we are at present engaged in the
manufacture of watches Of the very HIGHEST
GRADE KNOWN TOCHrONOMETRY, unequal.
led by anything hitherto made by ourselves, and
unsurpassed by anything made in the world. For
this purpose we have the smplest facilities. We
have erected an addition to our main buildings
expressly for this branch Of our business, and
have filed it with the best workmen in our SER
vice. New machines and appliances have been
constructed, which perform their work with con
summate delicscy and exactness. The choicest
and most approved materials only are used and
We challenge comparison between this grade of our
work and the finest imported thermometers. We
do not pretend to sell our watches for EEss MONEY
than foreign watches, but we do assert without
fear of contradiction that for this came money our
product is incomparsbly superior. All our watches
Of whatever grade, are fully warranted and this
wsrTantee Is good at al times against us or our
agents in all parts OF the world.
CAUTI0N.-The public are cautioned to buy
only Of respectable dealers. All persons selling
cOInterfeits will be prosecuted.
