NEVER GIVE Up.

Never give up, brother, never give up!
God has a blessing for those who work hard;
Why should you murmer, and grunlble, and
fret,
And envy the pleasures from which You're
debarred?
Work like a man,
Do the best you can;
This is the wise s. and happ;est plan.
Never give up, brother, never give up!
Though the future looks lowering, and
gloomy, and drear:
Though tho sun shine not now, yet it may
very soon,
Soon may come light,
And all will be bright,
Only struggle and strive, and do what is
right
Never give up, brother, never give up
Though yoar burden be heavy and dark be
your way,
The bow in the clouds only comes with the
rain,
And when night is deepest then bursts
forth the day:
Soon troubles will cease,
And your sorrows decrease;
Only trust in the Lord aud then all will be
peace-Leisare H1us

re- The . Evening Herald, which
hath an editorial circulation mostly, is
continually charging us with stealing
its items. Why, bless you, neighbor,
yon never have any worth stealing. not
even those which you copy from your
exchanges. 1t would require the best
and most approved microscope to find
an original local in your paper The
people have decided between us ; our
merchants and tradesmen fully appre-
ciate the efforts of the DAILY MONITOR
in their behalf, SO much so, that we can
scarcely supply the increasing demand
for our wide-awake paper. We do not
wonder at your failure we feel little
sorry, but we cannot help you. The
MONITOR will pursue the path marked
out at its birth; we do otintend to be
led into any foolish personal disputes
with every little cur that whines at our
heels we have higher mission before
MS, which we shall perform. You may
growl as much as you please-since
the loss of your teeth your bites have
harmed none but yourself. The DAILY
MONITOR is filing the want that has
long existed in our city-and unparal-
elled success has attended our labors. =
The MONITOR is success. From the
start it has relied for support from our
own business men, and our advertising
columns prove that our paper is appre-
ciated by all classes. Our carriers both
in the upper and lower wards are daily
receiving new and regular subscribers.
Our readers will pardon us for devoting
so much space to this subject, but we
promise not to again trespass personal
matters upon their attention. One

SENSATIONS DURING AN EARTHQUAKE.
The causes which produce the grand
and terrible phenomena of earthquakes
are doubtless various. The generation
Of gases by chemical reaction, and the
development of enormous volumes of
Isuperheated steam, by the contact Of
water with the intensely heated inter
ior of the earth, are without donbt the
most common and potent The dis
lance below the surface at which the Sc
forces act, although undoubtedly great,
is unknown. The sensations produced
upon people by earthquake shocks have
peculiarities which must be felt to be
realized, as it is impossible to give any
adequate description Of them. The
most graphic description we have ever
heard, was given to us by gentleman
who has experienced several of these
occurrences, both at sea and on land.
The sensation at sea, he says, is often
described as resembling the shock pro
dnced by ships striking upon reef,
but ther is feeling of something diff
ferent, sort of instinct of something
further away and more powerful, which
accompanies the first feelings of sur
prise and alarm, sort of mysterious
pulsation through the water, which,
once experienced. is not easily forgot
ten. On land he describes it as being
like what would be the feeling of per-
son standing upon flexible, buoyant
substance, like an immense tarpaulin
spread over the surface of liquid mass
in state of violent agitation. The I'M
dulations succeed each other 50 rapidly
and irregularly that it is impossible to
time ones steps to meet them. Per-
sons are suddenly and violently prostra-
ted, while the mysterious subtelranean
noises, the peculiar appearance of the
sky and atmosphere, the universal alarm
of all living things, conspire to produce
the most appalling spectacle that the
imagination can conceive Scientific

The PoRT. We took a stroll
around the +" Port" yesterday afternoon
and found it full of wonders. New and
BEAUTIFUL houses are springing up in ev-
cry street, and look where you will,
improvements may be observed. The
mills, founderies and factories are kept
running all day, while many of them
employ large number of hands at
night-the busy hum of the machinery
being heard all over our city. The
heavy columns of black smoke can be
seen at all times during the day, and at
night, the heavens are lurid with the
red glare OF the flames ascending hea-
venward from the tall brick chimneys
The new rolling mill especially is wor-
thy visit Here heavy railroad bars
are turned out in an incredible short
space of time, while massive pieces OF
iron are severed almost as easily as
Morgenroth would cut steak. The
spectacle at night is nob'e one ;
puddlers," like giants, stripped a.
most to the skin, stand in front of and
constantly attend to the immense fur
naces, which boil and seethe with lava,
the emission of sparks affordiug a
grand pyrotechnic display.
We have imagined that the lot of a
poor printer was hard one. but
we guess the +" puddler" has quite as
hard time to provide for the wants of
those committed to his care. The iron
ore is brought direct from the mines to
this immense establishment, while the
labor and cost of re-shipping railroad
iron to market is omparatively small.
The g Port in this respect possesses
advantages over any ther city in the
country. Excellent railroad facilities,
together with nayigable waters at our
doors, renders it certain that this city
within the next ten years will not only
take high rank among manufacturing
places, but its population will exceed
that of any other city in the State, if
we may except Newark.
No one man need be idle in this city.
There is plenty of work for all. Men
Of capital are coming here daily, look
ing for opportunities to commence bu-
siness, and it only remains with ourpeo-
pie whether they shall be encouraged
to settle among us. We bid all such
welcome--we have room enough land
enough, and if there is scarcity of
houses, we shall soon have enough to
accommodate all who wish to come
here to get rich.

D@ The Guernsey Times says of Ser
geant Bates, the soldier who carried the
flag from Vicksburg to Washington:
"Uhat if he did carry The flag through
the Confederacy? Any other eopperhead
or rebel could have done the same thing.
If true soldier, genuine loyal man,
who followed and defended that flag in
the hour Of trial, amidst the clash of
arms and smoke of battle, had underta-
ken the feat, he would doubtless have
been murdered ere its accomplishment"
Sergeant Bates was q true soldier, hav-
ing served to the close of the war in the
First Wisconsin Heavy Artillery. "What
if he did carry the flag" To show to the
People that the publications of Radical
editors ard Northern carpet-bag politi-
clans, that Union mans life was not
safe in the South, were internal lies;
and that they loved the flag termed by
the New York Tribune ia Haunting lie. )"
JOSEPH, "amidst the clash of arms and
smoke of battle" sounds heavy, but there
was nothing of that kind experienced by

A Temperance Move for the Ben
elit Of the Radical Party in Mon
roe County.
Some two weeks since a petition was
gotten up and circulated by the Radicals
of Woodsfeld, praying the Town Council
to restrict the sale Of intoxicating liquors
within the Corporation. The petition
was signed by one hundred and twenty
six voters. About thirty voters refused
to sign it. We were among the number
that refused, giving as our reasons that
an enforcement of the State law was all
thatiwas necessary, and that it had been
gotten up more to benefit the Radical
party than the community.
A meeting was held at the NJ. E.
Church on Thursday evening, the 10th
inst, at which the Town Council was ap-
pointed Committee to inform all liquor
dealers that they must conform to the re-
quirements of the State law, or suffer
prosecution, fine and Imprisonment. The
Committee, on the day following, visited
every liquor dealer in town and very
plainly laid down the law. The Commit
tee went strictly in accordance with the
following from Swan & Critchfeld, page
1881: :.
SEC. /. Provides that it shall be un
lawful for any person or persons to sell
intoxicating liquors to be drank in, upon,
or about the building, or premises where
lsold.
SEC. II. Provides that it shall be un
lawful to sell to minors.
SEC. III. Provides that it shall be un-
lawful to sell to persons intoxicated, OF
who are in the habit of getting intoxica-
| ted.
SEC. VIII. Provides for the fine and
Imprisonment Of persons violating the
provisions of this act. Provided, thai
the provisions of the first and fourth
sections of this act shall not extend to
the sale of the wine manufactured of the
pure juice Of the grape cultivated in this
State, or beer, ale or cider.
This action of the Committee was en-.
ltirely too mild for the hot heads who have
this matter in hand; accordingly at a
meeting held on Tuesday evening, the
21st inst, a Committee was appointed to
inform the aforesaid liquor dealers that
they must abstain from selling in any
way, shape or form; in short to close up
We have understood that the Committee
possessing more Judgment than zeal
which is more than can be said Of the
meeting, J neglected to carry out their in.
structions.
| Here We have presented meeting tha
proposes to abolish laws passed by tht
Legislature Of tha State Of Ohio.
| We took occasion, when the petition
was being circulated, to exhibit to Dem
ocrats that everything of that kind tha
had been gotten up in this eonnty fol
years past, had for its basis the benefit o
the Radical party; and within a few day
We have had conversations with Demo
orats who signed it, in which they in
formed us that they were fully satisfied
of the correctness of our views. Oul
advice now is, for all Democrats to give
this Radical temperance swindle wide
berth; the Council performed its duty
faithfully and all are perfectly willing
that that action shall stand as the action
of the people.

MIR. Stanbery and the Morgan Co.
Herald.


That our readers may fully understand
the process by which Radical Editors
grow wealthy, we furnish them few ex-
tracts from a communication to the Nc
Connelsvilfe Conservative, of March 10,
1868, signed by E. NJ. STANBERY, Rad
ical Prosecuting Attorney of Morgan
County: 80
"Mr. Brown editor Of the Herald, }
charges Mr.. Fl. johnson for whole col
umn six months about $40 co. while he
charges the tax-payers for one-fourth
column, same time, s93 90; and for fve-
sixths of q column six weeks S120 90, or,
in other words, when he works for Mr..
Johnson he makes $50 90 per column
per annum, but when he works for the
taxpayer he makes at the rate of 1882 90
per column per annum, and if anybody
stands between him and the money box
of the public, he must be stricken down.
Ct refer to bills in the Auditors Office to
prove what I say.s) 4
Mr.. STANBERY then Sits the Radical
Editors's exorbitant charges in another
way: - -
Let US take another view of this mat
ter. At the rate Mr.. Brown charges the
taxpayers, he would make as follows, pei
annum. He has about sixteen columns
of his paper for advertisements. This al
S8S2 90 per column, per annum, (the
rate charged to the county would be
S14,112 90 per annum and more than
s45 90 per day. besides his subscription
and job work, which more than pay all
expenses of his, Office. While you, Mr.
Tax payer, are toiling hard at one, two
or three dollars per day to make bread
and little something to enjoy in old age
Mr.. Brown sits in his easy chair, and
charges you at the rate Of s45 90 per day
for his services when working for you;
and, when the Commissioners and myself
stand in his way. we must be abused
slandered and villifed."
Is it any wonder that Morgan Town
ship changed, at the late election, from ;
Radical majority Of 40, to an ayerag,
Democratic majority of 2R
Mr.. Pyle, the successor of Mr.
Brown, had better not succeed Il
Browns questionable honesty, as he il

Pyle; better drop it.

.Democracy vs.. RadicalIsn.''

- ~ 2 ~ re tl
A few weeks since we informed the
public that the Morgan County Herald
charged niney-thmee dollars for publish
ing the Constitutional Amendment six
months. And that we charged thirty
f0o dollars for publishing the same, the
same length of time. m
We informed further that the Editor of
the Herald charged one hundred and thir-
ty dollars for the TreasHrer's tax notice
and bills, while We charged for the same
work only t9g.fve dollars.
We called the attention of Taxpayers
to the difference between the charges Of a
Radical and Democratic county; because
the charges were really little better than
picking the peoples pockets. m
The Editor of the Herald failed, In his
reply, to controvert any thing we had
said; but notwithstanding that wound up
with this flourish; "Haying disposed ssof
the Spirit of Democracy" IS
The neao Editor is laboring under the
painful fact that Morgan Township went
Democratic,a few days since by an average
majority of 20. Last fall the township
gave Hayes, Radical, majority of 40;
hence the editors weak reply. With a
proper circulation Of the charges made
BY the Herald for county printing, Nor
gan County will go Democratic the COM
