Temperance.-As score of new mem-
bers were added to the roll of Good Tenn
plars, on Friday night last. The lodge is
fast gaining ground, starting as it did
with a limited number, and has accomp-
lished incalculable good. Is there any
good reason why every young man and
lady in the city of Tiffin should not leave
their autographs on the record book of the
lodge ?-Iy6in Tribune.

Indignation Meeting.-At

Indignation Meeting.-At large
and respectable meeting of the citizens of
Upper Sandusky convened at the Court
House, on Sunday, the 22d inst, to take
into consideration the injusticedone them
in the recent decision of the Merrill case,
d. C. Murry was called to the chair and
DIR. J. H. Williams appointed Secretary.
On motion Committee of thirteen men
was appointed to draft resolutions express
ing their disapprobation of the decision in
the above case and of the presence of the
Merrill family in this community, except
ing the wife and children of the deceased.
The people then adjourned to 3o'clock.
p. NJ, to hear and act on the report of the
Committee, at which time they again as
sembled and passed the following resolu
tions:
WHEREAS. iii the opinion of the people
of Upper Sandusky, Fitzland d. Merrill
came to his death from the effects OF q
pistol shot fired by the hand of his brother,
Ansel DeForrest Merrill; and
WHEREAS. They believe that safd Ansel
DeForest Merrill did wilfully, and with
malice, aforethought, shoot his brother.
and that said act deserved at least the
punishment of murder in the Second de-
gree - therefore.
Resolued, That we regard the verdict OF
the jury which discharged the said Ansel
DeEorrest Merrill from custody, and from
punishment, as an outrage upon the citi-
zens of this county, and a mockery and
bullesque upon the usual proceedings in a
court of Justice.
Resolred, That we accord all due regard
to law. and to the finding of courts-yet it
is but justice to declare in this case, that
the law abiding habits ofthis people alone
prevent them from meteing out that JUS
tice to the criminal which they unani-
mously believe has been neglected in a
court of justice.
Resoloed, That we believe Ansel DeFor-
rest Merrill to be an unsafe and obnox-
ious individual and his further presence
here is an offense to this law-abiding peo-
pie, and that ID. G. Merrill, his brother,and
Ansel Merrill. his father by first abusing
the widow of the deceased second by the
course they have pursued to clear the de-
fendant from the crime he has committed,
and third by using every effort to destroy
the character of the deceased, merit the
just condemnation ofthis whole communi-
ty, and we unanimously ask that all the
parties, herein named, leave this county
Immediately.
Rcsoloed, That we deeply sympathize
" I'LL Tie WluOW anu OfpliallS III Inef De-
reayemcnt and destitution, and we will
use our best eXertions to keep her and her
children from want.
Resoiped, That Committee of three be
appointed to consist of David Ayers. S.
Gipson and S. w. Holmes, to Immediately
notify the said parties of these proceed
ings and the sense of this meeting.

country is but story Of fights AMONG them
selves. The quarrels If the Fenlan Presi-
dent and Senate, Of O'lahony aad Roberts,
have been re-enactcd On . smaller scale IN
almost every circle Of the Brotherhood. Mr..
Brennan told some very plain truth on this
point. He said the Fcnians had had al the
sympathy. aid and encouragement that could
be properly expected from the American
people, and that their want Of success thus
far wss their own fault. Tic attempt to
take Canada, be sand, failed partly from the
action Of President johnson; bat more from
the want Of harmony. energy, and oonccn-
tration OF purpose On tie part Of the Fenians.
That Is undoubtedly So Had the Fcnian
chici;ains rad the foresight to send their
arms to the ,orJer little before or at least

This seems quite sensible. but we pre-

Fenians. It is freely stated THAI arms are

started out on the high seas; and a rising is
imminent in Ireland. But all viii be as
fruitless Is the past efforts Of the kind. and
for the same reasons. The Igishmen must
become cooler and less reckless must learn
subordination must put less trust IN selfish
and knayish leaders and must bide the time
when England's extremity may be Ireland's
opportunity, before they can strike with the
slightest prospect Of success. Til then

burdens Of the Green Isle, and the time and
