A LIVELY TIME.-For some time
past there has resided in Marion
township in the neighborhood known
as Elm Street. q miserable old
wretch named Hill; his only com.
panions being a son equally deprav-
ed, and woman with whom it is said
lie lived in state Of adultery.
Disturbances Of various kinds
were frequent in the vicinity, al
though most of the residents in that
vicinity are well-disposed people

quented the house, but it seems that
no active measures were inaugural
ed looking toward their removal.
Thus matters stood until the wo-
man sickened and died. One OF the
undertakers from Fiudlay was called
upon, and performed the duties usual
in such cases. In a few weeks the
undertaken, keeping an eye out for
No. l, sent in his bill. The old man
would not honor it. whereupon an
execution was forthwith isSued and
an officer dispatched to seize upon
certain goods and chattles owned by
the old man.
When the officer msde his appear
Auee, Istn ana ms son met them with
threats of personal violence. The
officer called upon a young man
named Jackson, for assistance when
the old wretch beat him in such q
manner that he was glad to retreat.
A man named Whiteman then ap-
peared on the scene pursuant to
call," but received a terrible blow
upon the head which rendered him
incapable of assistance. .
All things have an end, however,
and in due course of time Hill and
his son were arrested and conveyed
to Jail. ..4 =
The following night the enraged
citizens assaulted what they term
4" Fort Hill," and utterly demolished
it not leaving "one brick on top of
another stone"-logs suffering equal
ly.
Hill and his son were bailed out
with the understanding that they
should scratch gravel" and never
more be seen in the country.

EDS. JRFF.-It is said that the
woman, with the six children and the
cart. who passed through our town
I few days ago, and whom some of
our citizens generously sent of on
the cars, was in part an impostor.-
At least 80 far as desire to ride free
on the railroad is concerned. Some
fifteen dollars were contributed, she
was ticketed to Toledo, and the bal.
ance Of the money put in her hands.
But they say" she rode no farther
than Fremont, unshipped and took
to land again, with the cart, it is sup
posed begging.
Now it Ii unpleasant for any one
70 be imposed upon; but we envy
not the hearts OF those who congrat-
ulate themselves that they are too
to be victimized in this way.
The disposition to do what was done
for that family, (and they were a
pitiful sight, is one Of the noblest
that dwells in the human heart and
persons whose perception is so acute
as to alsoays detect imposture, and
thereby always save their money. are
strangers to the principle of genero-
sity. Such persons only discover
their selfishness to others, instead of
their acuteness. Al any rate the
who generously gave a dol
lar or two apiece, did just what the
Of the case demanded,
did q noble act, and saved Hancock
county an annoyance at a very low
price. Better be imposed upon twice,
than to turn away one worthy object.

EDS. JEFF Our town has of late
been undergoing such q thorough
renovation-has virtually become re
constructed-that We thought 1t ad
visable to give you few local items
with regard to it. The work Of grad
ing the streets, laying the sidewalks,
guttering, &C., has been progressing
finely since my last communication
These improvements hare altered the
general appearance to that extent
that we think we can boast ofhaving
the neatest, most quiet, and most de-
sirable village for those loving good
order and quietude, in Hancock coun-
ty. One difficulty that ought to be
remedied is our hampered, pent- up
condition. Persons who would be an
advantage to this or any other place,
would like to settle here and prose
cute some branch Of industry, but
cannot on account OF the tenements
being scarce, no houses for rent or

holders, seeing this need, will be in
duced to make additions to the vii.

suppose it had scarcely been hidden
in the earth more than five or six
years. While viewing these remains
of once numerous people who, not
long since roamed in our forests,
fished in our streams, and engaged
in the various amusements pertaining
to their semi civilized natures, but
who are now fast becoming extinct,
our thoughts inadvertently wander
back to the many associations in con-
nection with the early settlement OF
this county, and the conspicuous part
played by those, whom now in our
midst, only remain in these silent but
impressive lectures on mans mortal |

EDS. JEFF.-While various of your
correspondents are publishing to the
world the characteristics of the towns
in which they happen to reside. / fail
to find in any of them accounts Of
such wonders as we possess in the
vicinity of Vanlue. Near this place
on the farm of David Smith, near the
roadside is curiosity which is daily
passed by people who have no idea
what they are losing by keeping their
noses straight before them. 1t is
nothing but spring, but such a
spring.! The water is as pure as
crystal and throws out a stream that
measures, as it passes through q
waste gate, over two feet in width
and between two and three inches in
depth, this measurement being taken
when the water is running very swift.
ly. We understand that Mr.. Smith
contemplates putting it under proper
restraint, and erecting grist mill on
the site Of one which is now in ruins,
and which was run by this stream
some twenty years since. Neither
,drouth or wet season appear to affect
the volume of water in the slightest
degree. Another curiosity Of WHICH
for a long time many Of the older
residents have had knowledge, but
have failed TO take interest in, has
been brought again before the public.
This is also located on, or rather nm
derneath, Limestone Ridge Some
days since. while plowing, asman
named Henry Grundle discovered,
by his horse breaking through the
ground, the existence Of an apparent
|iy deep hole. After digging swsy4
considerable ground he sounded the
depth Of the cavern with 65 feet Of
rope, but failed to reach the bottom.
Tradition has it that under this ridge
there is a cave Of great magnitude,
Indeed ! have been told by an elder

and a straw stack on the farm of
Gideon Close, Esq. on Limestone
Ridge, Big Lick township, were ut
