IMPORTANT TO DISCHARGED SOL
DIERs.-We clip the following ertract from
The CbiIlicothe "Advertiser," which we
heartily recommend to our returned Soldier
Friends:
"Certsn travelling claim agents are food
ing the country with hand.b .bilIs-advertisin
in glowing terms for Soldiers Discharges,
and promising speedy collection OF all claims
due discharged soldiers, upon very liberal
terms &c Now these men may be honest.
and then again they may not. At any rate,
the Attorneys ond claim agents of our own
county can do this business just as well,
and most probably better, living where it is
an easy matter to procure additional testi.
mony. il needed. In any event your local
cgents and Attorneys have every iLducement
to discharge the business honestly and
promptly, while Attorneys, Agents and
Brokers. living in a distant city, and who
never expect 10 do any other business for
you, care but little whether they maintain
the good opinion Of their clients or not, and
will IN many instances charge exorbitant
fees if they do not swindle the claimants
out of the half or the whole OF their claims
Employ no person whom you do not know,
and none outside ofyour own county.

a MONUMENT TO SAMUEL MEDARY.
1t is proposed that the Democracy of Ohio
erect monument over the remains of the
late Gov. Medary. 1t is fact we'll known
to the intimate friends Of that distinguished
Democrat that at the time of his death he
was poor. II ever there was in Ohio an
honest man, Samuel Medary was one. He
was hasty, impulsive man, ardent in his
likes as well as his hatreds, but withal one
of the kindest men the sun ever shone
upon; The Democracy Of Ohio in erecting
a monument to Governor Medary would only
be justly commemoating the memory OF
m n who, for years, was one Of their FORE
most leaders. Judge Thurman. General
Prentiss and Dr.. TreyitL OF Columbus,
have agreed to act as custodians of the mon,

them will be applied to this purpose. ANY
