Tuesday afternoon was rather mud

whose home is in the country, conclu-
ded that he would not walk, and see

was triumphantly riding his steed to

without first knocking the bad whis-
Ky off the horse.

! While quackery and humbuggery
have been stocking the shelves of our
drug stores with preparations which
are totally inefficacious to do the work
which is attributed to them. DR.. Helm
bold, of New York. has gone on with
his researches, and has enriched sci
ence with some of the most valuable
extracts that have gone into popular
favor in many years. The great sue
cess attained by Helmbold is alone a
sufficient guaranty that he is not among
the quacks, but that his discoveries
have really been valuable acquisitions
to science.
The success which has been attained
by this great pharmaceutist has been
attributed to the liberal manner in
which he adyertises; but when we con-
fess that this has been, to a great eX-
tent, the means of bringing his valua-
BILE preparations into notice, their real
success has arisen from their know n
value, established by fair and success

tried them. And this is the safest
guaranty that he has of his success
He has been a benefactor to science

The Last Call!-Make your re-
turns or pay the penalty! By the Uni
ted States Internal Revenue Laws, re-
turns of Income and Special Taxes are
required to be made to the Assessor or
Assistant Assessor, on or before the
first day of March of each year; but as
many ofthe people ofmy Division have
neglected to comply with the provis-
ions of the law up to this date, / pro-
pose to make one more effort to secure
their returns and save them the penalty
to which they subject themselves by
such neglect. I will, therefore, visit
the following places on the days speci-
fed, for the purpose of receiving said
returns,:-
Nevada-Monday and Tuesday, March
and 10.
Carey-Thursday and Friday March
12and 13.
Marsailles-Monday and Tuesday
March 16 and II.
Mexico-Thursday and Friday March
10 and 20.
At my Office in Upper Sandusky from
that time to the 2Sth day of March, 1868
after which date will, in accordance
with law and instructions, proceed to
assess all those who have neglected to
make their returns, and in such cases
the penalty will invariably be attached
from which there is no appeal.

DisI,a.ndad.

The members OF the Hose Compa-
ny gave public dance on last Friday
night. The attendance was very small,
and this gave offence to the Company,
whereupon they threw down their hats
and disbanded. 1t is reported that
some of the citizens spoke of the Com
pany in terms of disrespect, but such a
report is not entitled to the considera-
tion of mosquito. 1t is CANNON.
The fact is that larger part of our
citizens do not attend dances, and
many of those who do were not advised
of the intended ball. Indeed, the first
we knew of it was when we saw the an
nouncement from the Union office.
Now if our friends don't want to make
a Democratic affair Of the fire depart
ment, why were not the readers of the
PIONEER advised of the intended dance
We wish to assure our friends of the
Hose Co. that our citizens not only en-
tcrtain the highest regard for them
but will respond literally to all theil
wants, when properly solicited.

Some one contributes the following

Some one contributes the following
to the Fostoria News:
''Although checkers, believe is the
favorite game with the 'moral' part
of the community, much time is con-
sumed in thosenseless games that might
be devoted to something moro benefi-
cial. Men frequently become so alb
sorbed in these games as to neglect
their business. In fact, I have seen
persons neglect customers when they
called to trade with them, for the sake
of finishing a game of checkers OF chess.
Those who play checkers should not
blame those who play cards. One is
just as bad as the other. Every good
citizen who wishes to see the right ex-
ample set before the rising generation
should discountenance all these prac-
tices." o.

ssKathrina'' is the title of a work
from the pen of that distinguished and
popular author, sTilnothy Titcomb,"
a copy of which has been very kindly
presented to US by the publishers,
Messrs Ingham & Bragg, of Cleveland,
Ohio, and for which they have our sim
cere thanks. The aim OF this work is
to illustrate the power of true woman
to ennoble and to elevate man; to re-
veal to him the true end of life, and to
lead him to press after it with the same
earnestness and determination which
have marked his struggles to realize
his dreams of ambition.
Although mainly narrative in form,
parts of the work are dramatic and
lyrical and scattered through the
poem are passages unsurpassed for
their exquisite and pathetic tenderness
The poem is, in brief, the ripest work
of its author, and its measures are sure
to secure it the same cordial reception
and extraordinary popularity enjoyed
by its predecessor, "Bitter Sweet

Another Horrible Accident

AnOUnGf 11OTE1Dlc t4CClUCuts---
Our community was again thrown in
condition ofsadness OH last Saturday
morning by the announcement that
Father Reinhart, pastor of the Catholic
Church, was found dead at the Depot
crossing. The deceased desired to go
to Bucyrus, but reached the depot
about ten minutes too late for the 2:06
A. NJ. Express. Between three and
four O'Clock, a freight train arrived
but he was informed by the conductor
that he could not ride on that train, as
the rules of the Company positively
forbid the conductors to allow any pas
sengers whatever to ride on the freight
trains Mr.. Reinhart said that he was
very anxious to go, but the conductor
replied that he could not take him as
he would render himself liable to be
dismissed. Mr.. Reinhart then walked
away and his body was found terribly
mangled close by the side of the track
few minutes after the train started.
His right arm was entirely cut off very
close to the shoulder, his chest much
crushed and his body otherwise bruis-
ed. A large pool of blood may yet be
seen where the body was found. The
most rational supposition is that the
deceased came to his death by an at
tempt to get on the train while in mo-
ton. and the coroner's verdict is in ac.
cordance with the above supposition
Father Reinhart was about "A years
of age, well educated, very pious, and
entirely devoted to the interest of his
church and congregation. He was 6
native of Germany. He stood very
high in the estimation of all who knew
him, and his untimely death has filled
them with great sorrow. He was bur-
led in the vault of the church on Mon
day forenoon. The ceremonies were
very imposing, and were conducted by
Bishop Rappee, of Cleveland, o., as
sisted by another Bishop and ten O
eleven Clergymen.

Church Gambling.-An exchange
makes the following pointed remarks
GU growing custom at church fairs ::
1t is astonishing to see the amount of
church gambling now practiced at the
fairs held by the various denominations
1t would seem they thought the end
justified the means. let them be what
they may. We do not see how any one
calling himself Christian, can give
countenance to such things, much less
minister protesting to be Christian
The things practiced at fairs are as di-
rect gambling as may be seen among
any professional gamblers; but because
it is a church it is passed over in 81
lence, and patronized by leading mem
bers in the different churches, with the
minister in the foreground.

TRACK LAYER.-The Railroad Track
Layer now in use in California is said
TO operate successfully, and places the
iron rails in position at the rate of
one mile per day, though some of the
work has been done at the rate of two
miles in twelve hours. The machine
is car sixty feet long and ten feet
wide. IL has small engine on board
for handling the ties and rails. The
ties are carried on a common freight
car behind, and conveyed by an end
less chain over the top of the machine,
laid down in their places on the track,
and when enough are laid a rail is
put down on each side in a proper
position, and spiked down. The track.
layer then advances and keeps on its
work until the load of ties and rails is
exhausted, when other car loads are
brought. The machine is driven ahead
by locomotive, and it is stated the
work Is done so rapidly that six men
are required TO wait on il, but il is
asserted that they do more work than
twice as many could do by the old
system, and that the work is done
quite as well. The chief contractor
on the Vallejo and Sacramento rail
road, whore the machine is in use
gives il as his opinion that when the
machine is improved by making a few
changes in the method Of handling
rails and ties, it will be able 10 put
down FIVE or six miles per day.
