Strange, passing strange, that help

my, is barbarous. The writer must have

a thrust of the bayonet. I'll venture

should have visited Round Top" few
years since, and perhaps he would have
breatheu in enough enthusiasm to have
placed the Government under more ob

to be serious, the people of Wyandot,
from the information in their posses
sion-not received from partizan sourc-
cs-believed it to be their duty to assist
in relieving the wants of the South as
far as they could. One halt of the sub
scribers to that fund were Republicans,
and most of them have show their col

something more than gas to do it.

Messrs. Ault man Il Co., of Canton
Stark County, o., lave been compelled
on two occasions to branch out to other
places, because of the lack of railroad
facilities at that place. In 1864 they
built very extensive establishment at
Akron, Ohio. which gives employment
to very large number Of mechanics.
And now they are about to build an es-
tablishment at Mansfield, O., of capac-
ity to turn out fifteen hundred thresh-
ing machines year. Can any one cal
culate the amount of wealth which that
establishment will bring to Mansfield !?
And now we desire to impress this
fact upon our people. just SO long as
we do not possess more railroad con-
nections, so long will manufactures
pass us by. The growth ofany town is
always slow, and it's business stagnant,
without them. We have as good facil-
