SPECIAL NOTICES.
NO &c e.

I The beautiful Piano Fortes of GRovEsrEEN
& Co., are deemed by all good judges to be the
Ultima Thule of instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what is wanting to make
musical instrument more perfect, although
we are slow to admit that the limit of i'm
provement can ever be attained.
Before they had brought their Pianos to
their present excellence they had submitted
them to competition with instruments of the
best makers of this country and Europe, and
received the reward of merit, over all others.
at the celebrated Werld's Fair. 1t is but ius.
tice to say that thejudgment thus pronounced
has not been overruled by the musical world.
Still, by the improvements lately applied
by them to their Pianos, it is admitted that a
more perfect instrument has been made
They have accordingly achieved the paradox
of making excellence more excellent. Sure
ly, after this, they are entitled to the motto,
.Excelsior," tE may29.

s DThe Court of Common Pleas of
this county closed its labors on. last Sat
urday after session Of three weeks du-
ration. It was one of the heaviest ever
held in the, county, and the marked i'm
proyement in the heath of Judge Ken
non was a complete refutation of the
falsehood the Radicals have been indus
triously circulating, that his health was
failing, and that if elected he would be
unable to hold court. Every one who
attended our court co d not have failed to
notice that the health of the Judge im-
proved daily, and that it was much bet
ter at the close of the term than at the
opening. The Radicals dare not assail
the private or judicial character of the
Judge hence they resort to lying about
his health. 1t won't do, gentlemen; you
must try something else.- Guernsey JEFF

1~ Benjamin Murphy, formerly of
this place, was killed near Hendrysburg,

by being kicked by acolt. He had star
ted to the tobacco field and stopped in a
field, across which he had to go, land in
which was a colt he was treating
something being wrong with one of its
legs: TAe supposition is that the colt
kicked him, as when found his head and
shoulders were very much bruised.

tai AssocIATIoN.-Th Committees in
several of the townships, to whom GER
tifcates of membership to the Monroe
County Soldiers Monumental Associa-
ton have been forwarded report that they
have no difficulty in disposing of them.
"When is the monument to be erected?
and how high is it to be?'' are questions
propounded, to US nearly every day. Our
answer invariably Is: "Whenever suffi-
cient funds are reported to ensure against
a failure, the work will be commenced" !"
and from the rapidity in selling certif-
Gates We can answer all who have any
doubts in regard to the matter, that the
Monument soilE be erected The second
question is just as easily answered. Each
township will be entitled to block in
the Monument. the size Of which will be
four feet square; the base will be the
county block, and the whole will be sur
mounted by cannon; in front of the
Monument will be soldier on guard, in
bronze.

BASE BALL CLUB.-The club is pro.
crossing splendidly; in fact, the members
decided few evenings since to elect new
officers, the old ones having become per-
feet; the old 'uns retire covered with glo-
ry; we were Secretary, and it would do
any base ball player, who fully under
stands the game, good to take look at
the mysterious hyrogliphics we set up O.
nights to record in the booksof the club.
In the exercise we were considered a
pretty sharp Base Baller, and could catch
flying just as easily as walking; catching
on the first bound we were not very ex-
pert at, as We failed to bound with sufi-
cient rapidly; but after taking about
three bounds generally managed to take
the ball without any difficulty Jo,ol balls:
the umpires were continually calling out
foul balls, especially after having eaten
hearty suppers of Shanghai; all the mem
bers and spectators acted as umpires-do
all clubs have as many? This club can
beat any other club in Eastern Ohio;
have heard of the playing of the Barnes
vile and st. Clairsville clubs, but they
certainly don't understand the rules of
the game, as our boys play an entirely
different game; and should either of them
play match game with our club they
will be taken down pretty rapidly on the
Rules and Regulations as understood by
their opponents.
