A valuable tannery was burned at Pier
pont Center on the 10th inst. The tan
merry was just across the street from the
saw mill that was burned but a short time
ago.
j. W. Pulsipher, Esq, of Dorset, has a
three year old heifer that a month ago
(and is doing better now was giving
thirty-one pounds of milk each day, from
which was churned daily one pound and
and two ounce of butter. There may be
still better COWS in the county, but con-
sidering the age, this is certainly an ex-
traordinary one.
Statistics of the township of Austinburg,
gathered from the lists OF the assessors, show
that the town contains the following tax
bic property 1863 horses ! mule III
hogs; l,l75 cattle; 1921 Sheep ~ dogs
only taxed, total number 81 vehicles

wool shorn 22,36l pounds.
From the Conneaut Reporter:
On Tuesday night the houses of Mr..
George Hanan and A. HARDWOOD, in the
eastern part of the town we're robbed.
Mr.. Hanan lost two watches and a guam
tity of money, while Harwood's loss was
bet weon $500 and $500 in cash. The
thief is supposed to have been a nan
known in these parts as Stephen Sweat
land, who was temporarily stopping in
the neighborhood.
Ebcr Sanford, Esq, of South Ridge,
sheared, one day last week, from his Span
ish Merino buck two years old a fleece of
beating all at the County Shearing, at
Jefferson, the 10Th inst. He also sheared
from another three years old, l71 lbs.
The weight of the two years old, after be-
ing sheared was but 100 pounds.
We are panied to record another and
most distressing accident which occurred
this "wednesday morning from the in
discreet practice Of firing revolvers. Mar
shall Preston and jerome Warner, two of
our village young men, whose judgment
should have taught them the better part
ere this sad occurrence, were in the rear
of Mr.. o. Phillips residence on Main
Street, and espying privy which they
misteok for a hen-house, the target was
Immediately raised and the test of skill
commenced. Warner fired first and then
Preston when a cry of distress was uttered
by Mrs. Abigail Phillips, who was in the
privy. She proceeded toward the house
but had gone only about ten about ten feet
when she fell to the ground and immedi-
stely expired. Upon examination the
fatal ball was found to have struck her
just above the right hip, penetrating sufi-
deep to cause death as above stated.
Mrs. Phillips was 63 years of age and the
mother Of a large family of children.

Soda Ash-ForsiEn Dependence.

a single artlcle Is Indispensable 10 the
bread we eat, the soap we wash with, to
our windoW-glass, tumblers, and the very
paper we use for writing, newspapers, &c.
| Without Soda Ash in its crude and re-
fined forms, these necessities of life can
not be lad in any perfection-some not
at all. Fer each and all of these articles
of prime and indispensable necessity, we
are at this moment wholly dependent on
Great Britain. A war with hat power
would cut off our supply of Soda Ash and
its chemical products, and leave US who'll
" without the means, save from the rem
nant of the imported stock on hand, to
carry on for one day our manufactures of
glass, SOAP, and paper, and to make bread
for family use This marvellous depen-
dence of a civilized nation for the comfort
Of its daily life upon the favor of afor-
eign people or the chances of continued
peace, is more than a national disgrace
it is national peril. 1t is the solemn duty
Of this Congress to lift the country square
out of it.
British manufacturers have undersold,
and broken down our OWL, and have
made profits, out of their monopoly, for
the past three or four years, of from three
to four hundred per cent. and their aver
age profits have been n hundred per
cat.
They employ workman in their Soda
Ash factories for fifty cents a day-social
and Political paupers, enslaved to capital
and caste-and make their profits from us,
managing, meanwhile, under "free-tradeo
pretences, to prevent American workmen
from being paid three fold their pitiful
wages in our W factories, and eating
the bread made from our grain to the mu-
tual benefit of all. The elements of Soda
Ash manufacture are;
1. Salt, Coal, Limestone and Sulphur,
or Iron or Copper Ores eontaing Sulphur.
II. Kriolite, Coal and Limestone.
Kriolite is a mineral, ~procurable in Green
land, which dispenses with Sulphur in
the manufacture of Soda Ash.
An these elements are distributed over
the United States, and are in our posses
sion and within our control.
Our consumption of Soda Ash and its
products is
Of Soda A:h annually, Ss;0 : tons.
eaa s9&a ssod., ESQ $50 q
Our yearlyimports from England are
S4,375,O0Og e
Soda Ash fer which we were helplessly
compelled to pay what the British asked,
ruled in 1865 from 81 cents per lb. to II
cents per ID, and is now 81 cents. The
high price extorted from Americans last
year, would have paid for establishing the
Manufacture of Soda Ash in the Uuited
States and kept it going for five years,
and secured TO US forever steadiness of
supply and stability of prices.
To make glass Soda Ash alone is used.
To make Soap, Caustic Soda, Sal Soda
and Crude Carbonate of Soda are used.
To make Paper, Soda Ash generally,
and Caustic Soda and Sal Soda are used.
To make Bread, Cakes, sc, B~icarbOn-
ate of Soda is used.
Nearly all of the 1900 tons of Bicar-
Donate Of Soda annually used in the
United States, is consumed in the form of
Yeast Powders.

or its products are absolutely indispensa-
BILE to the making of Hard Soap.

From the Oberlin NelCs
Professor Cowles has nearly completed
his commentaries on the Prophets, which
will be ready fer the press in a few
weeks. They will form three or -four
volumes, and have been highly commend
ed by such distinguished divines as Drs,
Bacon, Thompson, Morgan, Presidents
Finney and Woolsey and Professors
Stowe, Porter, Fairchild, Barrows &c,
&c. No arrangement has yet been made
for their publication, the great uncertain
ties Of the book-making business sadly in
terfering with such enterprises, so long as
the times and tariffs are so unsettled.
We suppose this series of commentaries
will rank as the nlagnun opus of Pro-
fessor Cowles' life and have no doubt
that the immense labor, research and
biblical learning that has been given to
them viii place them among the stand
ard books of their class.
A soldier, whose upper jaw, right arm
and right leg had been shot away IN bat
tie, was showed off the cars at Oberlin, by
the conductor of the Night Express last
Saturday evening, because he had not
the money TO pay his fare to Coldwater,
Michigan, where he was going to find
friends. Some Of citizens found him
on the streets on Sunday in the rain, cold,
hungry and shelterless, and helped him
to food lodings.

Slapped during the winter by Mr.. Mercer
70 the Pacific coast arrived safely at San
Francisco April 2lst The announce
ment that the love-laden steamer had en-
tered the Golden Gate set the Pacific me-
troplis crazy. A crowd of unmarried
men, ranging from thirteen to eighty-fve
years of age, rushed to the landing and
offered all sorts of subsidies for the priv
ilege of going out to the steamer, which
swung gently on the waters of the BAY
being tied TO a buoy some hundred feet
Rom shore. All access to the vessel was
denied by that hateful duenna, Mercer
who declared his intention of securing a
fresh steamer. transferring his fAiP-eaESs
without landing. and sending it to 0lym-
PA. Washington Territory, 10 which point
the the lucious freight was originally 0
signed. Mercer evidently intended that
California shall be no richer in wives for
his enterprise. Notwithstanding his cruel
precautions it is rumOred that thirteen
San Franciscan bachelors, BY means of an
old submarine armor which they took
turns in using, succeeded in reaching the
celestial craft at nightfall, and, before the
sentinel on guard detected their intrusion
and informed duenna Mercer, an even
bakers dozen of the feminine mariners
we're duly engaged to marry the bold
swimmers, who turned out to be sons of
the wealthiest:citizens of the coast Of

And the Gnashing of teeth with which
the Olympisns will vent their dissppoint-
ment might well stsrtle a man of less
nerve than Mercer: but a Mercer who
can make the voyage from New York

An increase of tariff scarcely felt BY
