EpIroR JOURNAL; l shall take you at your
word. You state, my boy, that the columns Of
your " valuable sheet" will be open to all commu-
nicotions touching the removal of the c, unity seat,
pro or con, written in respectful manner. With
this assurance from the tripod, | proceed, and
shall touch upon the question after the pro style
decidedly-leastwise vastly moro pro than con.
In the outset il may be as well to state, that l
am ferneust Perrysburg all the time, and am in fa-
Of removal Of the seat ofjustice to this place
FOR several reasons, first and foremos, among which
is the fact that possess in my own right and IT,
tie town-lot in this ourishing part fthe county,
and removal will quadruple its value. A large
number Of my neighbors are in the same boat.
We mostly own lots, and, to a man, we are in fa-
vor Of removal. Many Of us have invested in real
estate in the suburbs, and this fact materially adds
to our reasons favorng removal, besides giving
additional weight to zeal on this all-importau
question. appeal to you, my boy, il we would
not prove false to ourselves and doubly false to
our pockets, If we did not urge removal by every
argument within our command and did not take
some pains to make the dear good people of Wood
County regard the advantages of the enterprise in
the same light that we do.
We are well aware that you Pcrrysburgers are
beginning to squrm right lively. But this is just
a commencement for we Bowling Grecuers will
cause some of the tallest Kind squrming by the
morning after the election in October next. You
will then have some cause for squirming, for let
me whisper a word in your ear, my boy; Our
plans are so we'll laid, aud our schemes so nicely
perfected that our success is assured. There is
no fear of failure.
1t is true, do not expect to secure our triumph
without some opposition, but our road is smooth
one comparatively. The more northern townships
have been secured in favor of the measure, by the
assurance that zoe win assign them to Lucas
'Ts true ,ce cannot do this, as do not comprise
the people Of both Lucas and Wood Counties al
though we claim to speak for Wood County-for
we already bcgin.to think that Bowling Green is
Wood County. But, as was saying, my boy, i
we can make the people Of these townships believ,
that we can assign them to another county, ant
thereby secure their support" what's the hodds, ;
my boy? The end iusti6cs the means.
One impression that is abroad, I wish to correct
tits not true that we intend to fill all the count,
offices with candidates from this place. On TIN
contrary, we shall generously give way in few
of the minor positions. We are not disposed to b,
at all churlish in this regard. Nevertheless, it il
necessary to keep the reins well in hand.
If you print this, my boy, l will give you auoth
er communication, as there are several other point
1 wish to touch on.
Yours, for the county seat

Close Of Seminary at Maumee
City,

The closing exercises, for the year, Of the Central
Ohio Conference Seminary, at Maumee City, took
place Friday evening, June 10. This institution,
founded only five years ago, has experienced the
usual struggle for existence of such institutions,
but is now fast rising to character worthy of its
name. Owing to the enlistment of many of its
students in the army, it was suspended one year
during the war. In August last it was re-opened
under the charge of Professor Il. d. PorE as prin-
cipal, and Miss MARY MoDERMoT as Assistant.
Both these are graduates Of Boldwin University,
and Thorough educators, The former, atter his
graduation, filled Professors chair in his Alma
Mater until called to take charge Of this Seminary.
Under their lsbors it has enjoyed "a prosperous
year, having had in attendance eighty students
larger number than was expected after its
revOrses and suspension.
The examinations took place on Thursday and
Friday, and were highly credtabe to both teachers
and students. The exercises, Friday evening,
were very Satisfactory to the audience which
crowded the house, Notwithstanding an admttance
fee was charged, tho proceeds of which 60 to
improve and furnish the buildings.
AT the close of the entertainment Friday evening
a very pleasant episode occurred, showing the
estimation in which the teachers are held by the
students. Without the knowledge ofeither teacher,
the students had purchased for each some six or
eight fine valuable volumes, comprising history,
poetry, SCIENCE theology, &c., to be presented as
surprise. They were presented in appropriate
addresses to Miss McDERMoT by Miss HATTIE
HERBERT, and to Professor PORE by Captain
SANDERsON. Ii was such perfect surprise to
both they could scarcely reply, but did so in a
few words of thanks, with broken accents and
tears. The incident made a deep impression on
all present.
AT the annual meeting Of the Board of Trustees
resolutions were passed expressive Of their salts
faction with the labors of Professor Pore and Miss
MCDERMoT, and the Board has employed them for
another year, at incre lsed salary. This insti-
tuition meets a want of the Northwestern portion
of our State, and is worthy Of liberal patronage
Those desiring to have their sons and daughters
we'll educated near home, will do well to send
them here. TNB,

The Storm of sunday and Monday.

The protracted storm at the beginning Of
the week was attended with much disaster
to the shipping interest of the lakes Infor
nation from various sources is to the effect
that some twenty-five or thirty vessels hav'
received more or less injury. In the vicin
ity of Cleveland. two vessels from thatp
were completely destroyed, attended will
a loss of seven lives. The Cleveland Her
aid says:
Tie beach for two miles is strewn with
pieces of the wreck of both these vessels
Two or three trunks have come ashore, but
up 10 the time when we left the scene
these disasters none of the victims of this
terrible storm had come ashore.
The storm last night, was as severe ol
land as twas Oh the water, if not as destruc
tive to life and property. Chimneys wer,
blown down in different parts of the city
shade trees suffered severely, and the de
struction of signs and awnings is past al
calculation. 1t is the general expression
that SO severe storm has never before Wis
tied us at this season of the year. w,
have heard of no serious accidents to per
sons on land from the effect of the gale.

The Storm.

On Sunday last about noon, cold steady rain
commenced falling and continued with uuabated
power until Monday afternoon. Monday was a
cold, dreary, stormy day-one of the most disa
greeable we have ever experienced. Fires were
at premium, and overcoats, shawls and umbrellas
were Indispensable. driving western wind
showed the bottom of the Maumee in many places
Navigation was simply impossible. The storm on
the lake is reported to have been one Of the most
severe that has occurred for many years.
