JUST RIGHT.-R. NJ. Clark, the County
Auditor, is engaged in the laudable busi-
mess of compelling full return of. prop
erty for taxation by certain class of
wealthy men who have heretofore been
swinaIing the State and county out of IA
large amount of taxes When in the
Auditors office, by adding on to their
returns, We succeeded in compelling a
number of men to enlist and swear to
their return who had always refused to
DO either. Mr.. Clark has succeeded in
one case in getting S25, 600 on the dupli-
cate where the return was only $1,000
Mr.. Genin's return amounted to SlS,iS
and the amount of personal estate, in
Guiding $50, 900 in government bonds, as
returned by the Executor, is Sill, ,000.-
We hope Mr.. Clark will continue the
work of hunting up this class of delin-
.quents until every man in the county
will be assessed at what he is worth.
IF fifty men swindle the Government
sout of their share of taxes by false re-
turns, the aggregate amount of taxes col
Iiected will be no less, for their share of
Ttaxes will have to be paid by those who
ARE already paying their proper quoto.-
1T is the interest, therefore, of every tax
payer who honestly returns his property
for taxation, ito see that his neighbor
docs the same, and where there is case
,of fraudulent return the Auditor should
ibe notified of it so that he may bring the
delinquent to justice.

MErHoDISM IN BARNESvILLE, OHIO
DIR. J. Drummond is closing his third
year of pastoral and pulpit labors in this
cong regration. During his term of ser.
vice parsonage, c0mmodious, weli-loca-
ted, well arranged, has been built, and
is now entirely free from incumbrance
Industry and good management have
effected this, and have thus provided a
good home for the itinerant who shall
have the privilege of serving the Barnes
vile congregation.
The church there is prospering. Each
Sabbath morning and evening finds il
well filled with a substantial and
thoughtful congregation. There is visi-
BILE growth in all respects. The pastor is,
in pulpit services, renewing his youth,
and, in pastoral labors, manifests the
vigor Of former years. The society is re-
ceiving additions to its numbers and
conducting with energy and judgment
all its appropriate evangelical move
ments. A pleasant and prosperous fu-
ture must surely await it.
A numerously attended Sunday school
meets in the afternoon of each Sabbath.
1t is well officered and furnished with
equipments necessary to effective work.
A good working force is binding tender
hearts and minds 10 the Savior and his
atonement.-[Pi Pitts. Christian Advocate.

Boston Wool Market.

TheAdvertiser. of Friday. says the receipts
for the week have been 3,03 bales against 1884
bales for rthecorresponding week of last year
The sales of the week foot up to 55OOOOfbs of do
nestle and 1856 bales of Mediterranean and South
American, and 60 bales of EastIndia, Syrian and
Mexican.
The market continues inactive, and although
there is more Inquiry from manufacturers there
is a wide difference between their views and
those of sellers. Cash buyers could readily OBJ
tain concession of &c 2 b on fair lots of extra
woods, and pullers would also be willing to yield
something on the price of supers; but neither
dealers nor pullers are willing to make that con-
cession that manufacturers demand, and trade
is consequently confined to the purchase of such
quantities as are needed for immediate use
Extra fleece mas been selling at prices ranging
from 49, &c for fair lots to sic for good Ohio;
double extra has sold at 55@57c for Ohio and
Pennsylvania, and picklock has been in some
demand at Csc. Combing wool is scarce, and
the sales of domestic have been at full prices
At the present price ofcombing wool in Canada,
it cannot be laid down here for less than zoe,
which is as high as buyers are disposed to pay
for fair lots. There have been several sales of
sound lots of unwashed to scourers at previous
rates. and this description is quite firmly held.
The market as whole is quite firm, but what
effect the persistent hammering OF manufac
turers will have on prices remains to be seen.

BY reference to an advertisement in
ti,.s issue, il will be seen that We offer
our residence, known as the Peck prop
erty. for sale. We find we cannot prop
eriy take care of it without occupying
too much of the time required to look
after and get up The CHRONICLE; and.
as we intend to make its management
and care, our principal business, we have
concluded to sell the above property so
as to have our entire time to devote to
the paper.
Any person desiring q complete rural
residence, with all the advantages of the
town added, should examine this prop
erty. There is land euough-10 acres
in connection with it, and grapes and
small fruits enough on it, to make it prof
liable to the owner, if properly managed.

Allegheny Cattle Market,

From the Pittsburgh Gazette, Dec. s, lS6s.
CATTLE.-The market was exceedingly dull
to-day, which was owing mainly to the incle-
ment condition of the weather. The number
on sale was not large, reaching about 500 head
the market was hard one; the butchers did
not even seem to be out in full force, and those
who were in attendance did not buy very freely
seeming disposed TO hold back in anticipation
that they would be able to do better towards the
close There were but few Eastern buyers on
hand, and the miserable weather kept away a
good many country buyers who are usually
here every week. Prime to extra butchers stock
sold at S7@7 80, and medium to good do at S6@G
so. Stock cattle may be quoted rom at 81 50@5
50, according to quality and condition. There
was a fair proportion Of good cattle, though the
greater number consisted of rough steers and
cows. go 4' g
SHEEP AND LAMBS.-There was n very full
supply on sale to-day, but with an improved de.
mand, brought about by the presence of several
Eastern buyers, the market turned out mucA
better than was generally expected at the OPEN
ing, and there were but few if any left over un-
sold. Compared with last week however, prices
have undergone no quotable change, though
had it not been for the outside buyers there
would most likely have been decline. Prices
ranged from 81 to 2 80 p head ---
HoGS-The market for this class of stock is
firm and fairly active with a demand fully up
to the supply. In prices, there has been no ma
terial change since last week. though there is q
firmer feeling; we quote in n retail way at I@9c
for fair to prime heavy averages.

BEAM.-Mary c., wife of Mr.. Jacob Beam, died
| Friday morning, Dec. 18th, 1868, after brie
illness, aged q years, months and day.
| The following beautiful lines were found
where she had lain them away, and are strange
ly ind cative of her thoughtfulness and strong
affection:
am dying, husband, dying in the morning ol
my bloom;
Let me lie upon thy bosom ere leave thee for
tomb:
Press thy lips to mine, dear husband, and catch
the parting breath,
With thy loving arms around me shall have
no fear of death.
Thou wilt mourn for me- my husband, thou wilt
miss thy fair, young bride:
When thou wakest in the morning thou Will
miss me from thy side;
And pang will rend thy bosom when thou
see'st my vacant chair.
But thou'lt think, beloved, of Heaven, and VIII
know thy wife is there.
Thou'lt be Ionly, husband dear, for many a
weary day;
Thou wilt miss the cheering Iove-light that
frightened once thy way;
Oft thou'lt listen for my footsteps, and my low
and loving tone,
And forget that I am lyingin the church-yard
cold and lone.
Then thouflt waken from thy dreaming and
the bitter tears will flow
When thou'lt think upon thy lost one in the
church-yard lying low;
have thought of this full often, as lay upon
my bed,
How thon'It weep for me, dear husband, when
I'm numbered with the dead.
Nay grieve not so, my husband, tits trial sore
know,
But kiss the hand that chastens, and calmly let
me go;
Bow to His WILL dear husband, who chastens
but in love,
And thou wilt shortly meet me in my blissful
home above.
And thoult remember, husband, our precious
only child;
And thoult direct his footsteps thro' this sinful
earthly wild;
'Tis charming thought, my husband, to my
dying moments given,
That thou'lt be his guide and guard when am
up in Heaven!
Kiss me once more, dear husband, my strength
is getting low;
'Tis hard to leave thee husband, yet tits Gods
will should go;
On thy heartily faithful heart, love, yield
my parting breath,
die, dear husband, yet feel no
sting of death! Com.

THAT FERRY.-A few weeks ago We
noticed the fact that NJ. r. Hutchison
had started Ferry between Ritchie-
town and the Ohio side, just above Boggs'
Island. We now learn that there is a
conflict for the right, and that David
Detwiler has license to run ferry at
that point and has his boat on hand to
enjoy and occupy his right. He claims
that he is the only person who mas such
right and that the other party is tres
passer.
