FIGHT AT CAMP CHAsE-Yesterday af-
ternoon a negro called London" who
lives at the Soldiers Home-a laborer
there, we believe-was assisting in tearing
down the old barracks at Camp Chase,
when he got into dispute with white
man named Hawks, on the Suffrage ques-
ton. The negro swore he would vote at
the ensuing election, declaring that if any
white man challenged him he would shoot
him. One word bred another until the ne
gro ended the discussion by calling the
white man a I'D liar," and breaking a
chair over his head. Hawks wounds are
pretty severe, his scalp being laid open in
gerous.

PLANTATION BITTERs will not raise the dead,
But they cure the sick. exst the depressed,
And render life thing to be enjoyed.
We believe there are millions of living
witnesses to this fact. Dyspepsia is hor-

it. 1t is a most invigorating tonic, for
weakness and mental dependency. Those

AGRICULTURAL FAIRs.-The agricultural
fair season is at its height, and more superb
weather than that of the week was never
granted managers, exhibitors and specta-
tors. Out-of-door life is gathered up in a
huge display of its most attractive features
and specimens. You can see, in imagina-
ton, farms stretching beyond farms, and
the ''cattle on thousand hills" A sturdy
and thrifty population, with its industries
and social pleasures, comes up before the
view. A picture of plenty is photographed
on the memory. Happy faces of agricul-
turists and good homespun people crowd
on the delighted vision. For pretty scenes,
suggestive of comfort and tidiness, and
moderate gains, and general content
mant, our agricultural fairs are not
equalled. They are the true harvest home
of the farmer. He attends them as much
to meet his brother cultivators as to take
prizes or figure in the public prints. His
way of enjoyment is his own, and he gets
as much out of it as anybody could, per-
haps more. We are led to these thoughts
by remembrance that this is the last day
of the Madison township fair at Groveport.
Perhpas there will not be as fine a town
ship fair in Ohio, as that now being held
in Groveport. On Wednesday there were
over 900 entries. 1t is a pretty drive down
there, and if our readers wish to put in a
delightful day, and enjoy the society of
whole-souled energetic people let them go
down to-day. There will be wheelbar-
row race run this afternoon by parties
