Look to Your Titles !

I T may not be generally known that the title to
L large portion Of the Real Estate in Wood
County is defective-but such is the fact. These
defects arise from misdeseription of the prop
erty, informal execution and acknowledgment
of conreyances, uurecorded deeds, tax sales and
titles Judgment liens, irregularities in sales under
execution, mortgages, &c.
Hundreds of mortgages and other membranes
upon lands remtin uncancelfed on the records,
although the debts they were given to secure have
probably been paid Thousands of tax sales have
been made, incumbering lands and lots, many of
which have been redeemed but not cancelled, but
large number still exist valid hens the prop
erty sold. Over 1900 OF the deeds on our county
records are either enormously executed, or
wrongly recOrded-mOst of the errors undoubtedly
occur in the making of the deeds, but many in the
recording of them. -r.sra
In view Of these facts, we are preparing, and
have nearly completed, Mt great expense and i'm
menSe labor, a complete abstract of the title TO
every tract of land and town lot in the county,
giving the original entries and purchases from tie
State and United States, date of the deeds, kind
ct conveyance, consideration, full description of
the land, where deed executed, date of record,
book and page where recorded, number of Wit
nesses, number of seals amount Of revenue stamp,
&c. ~. 'p
So complete will these Abstracts be, that if
every book in the Recorders Office were destroyed,
an accurate description of every Instrument re.
corded there, could be procured from our Office.
WIN Inese lacllueS we are pfepdreu,' on tne
shortest notice. to give all necessary information,
and written abstracts of title, at reasonable prices
to all who may desire the same.
With these Abstracts before us, we also have
facilities for preparing conveyances Of every de-
scfiptiOn, unequalled by any other office in the
county, aud which will DO made out by us at usual
RATS. We will give special attention to remedSng
defects in titles, removing iucunbranees, procuring
lost deeds, getting original patent or copies Of
same, and perfecting titles generally.
Every owner Of Real Estate should know the
full history Of bis title to same and that it is
recty placed on the record; and every prudent
man will refuse to buy any lands or lots wthoat
first being fully satisfied that the title TO Same is
perfect, clear and unimcumbered and these facts
can be ascertained from us at a small expense.
Our charges will be as follows; ssf.F
For nm examinations of the title to a lot or tract
OF land, with verbal opinion same, from 81 to
So, according 10 Talas aud number of transfers..
Fer full abstract OF the title, with written
opinion ame, 80 and over, according to numbor'
OF eonveyanOes of the land, and labor in making
out same. 'H1'"e71-t'
A reasonabls deduction win be made to appli-
eapts, for chain of title to two or more tracts, and
also to attorneys and agents who make frequent
busin~ss calls upon Us. -tl - b

THE ISSUE OF EQUAL POLITICAL
nIGMTs.THE ,ls suErRAGEs ,I.,I I,as,s,.s AMEND-

THE Manhood Suffrage Resolution, by
which the word white 10 to be stricken
from the Constitution Of the State Of Ohio
occupied the attention of both Houses oil
the Legislature last week. During that
time, tho resolution seemed TO have been
transmogriaod into temporary football
and was vigorously tossed from one House
IN tho other, to the ediRcation OF few and
she anxiety OF many. ts.
On Saturday afternoon, however, the dif.
ferenCss between the Senate and House were
reconoiled, and the resolution passed by
the required three-ffths majority, with the
House amend ment retained, which disfran-
ohises all persons who served in the rebel
army or navy, and all draft sneaks aud de-
serters from the Federal army.
We arc glad that the issue has boen
male. II is now placed fairly and squarely
before the people for their decision. We
rojoiog that the gauntlet of battle has been
thrown, aud that the great contest in the
coming campaign will be for principle
worthy Of the keenost blade aud the bright.
est steel We are content that the Union
party should bear the "odium Of impair
tial suffrage. We had rather suffer defeat
with the Right, than revel in victory with
the Wrong. But VIC do not anticipate de.
feat. We havo too much confidence in the
people to believe that they will suffer
themselves to be swerVed from the right
path by u senseless and unmesuing preju-
dico, the natural result Of slavery and op.
preston u--uttelly unworthy an intelligent
people.
That party which was committed against
the Government in its hour Of peril is com.
mitted to.doy against giving political rights
to the black defenders of that Government.
In this that party preserves its. consist
ency +; and the Union party that proved
TO be the salvation Of the Government,
can only maintain lis consistency by ali
opposite course. The earnest Union mon
Ure thus pledged upon this great issue,
and in their Convention. on the 10th of
June next, they will, without doubt, give it
unanimous Endorsement. With the in
spring motto cf Equal Rights inscrbs ID
upon their banner, we have no fears for the
result. The solid columns and unwaverng
battalons of the great Union party will
march on to certain victory, and place our
noble State in the van OF political progress.
The only way to preserve the machinery Of
our Government and it's free institutions
intact, is to place political power in ihe
hands Of those who, at the risk Of their wi
lives aud all they held dear, rallied to its
aid in the hour of peril and to wrost such
power from those who deserted their ooun
try in that same trying hour.
The day dawneth Organize at once
On to victory Let the verdict that iS tc
be given in Ohio for Equal Rights, in Oc
toher next, be one that shall be over
whslming aud emphatic.
