ied.--June 3D., 1868, at the resi-
dence Of her daughter, Mrs. A. Straun,
near Chillicothe, in this county, Mrs.
Rachael Stephenson, at the advanced
age OF 76 years.
Rev. w. A. Nye, Of Chilicothe,
preached the funeral sermon juno
4th, at the M. +. Church in that place,
from the text: eff q man die, shalt he
live again." and at its close spoke in
terms of praise and admiration of the
life and character Of deceased, who
had been conscientious and consis-
tent christian, for more than half a
century. At the close Of the sermon
her remains werc carried to their
last resting place, followed by a large
concoursc of people, and laid by the
side of her husband, who about six
months since died, at the ripe old age
of 80 odd years.
Mrs. Stephenson was born in Vir-
ginia in 1892, and with part of her
relatives emigrated to Indiana in its
early settlement, residing there until
about Is years since, when she came
with her family to this State, and set
tied near Chilicothe, where she resi-
ded until her death. Thus another
representative ofthe past century has
departed, after having lived to see
three generations spring up and pass
away before her.

A PATcH.-The Pella Blade tells
the following good one on Patch,
tip-top good fellow, and bully con-
ductor on the d. V. r. r. We have
no reason to doubt the story, either,
for the Blade always speaks know
ingly.
TINK so.-A good one is told on
our friend Patch, Conductor ON the
d. v. r. r., who by the way is q re-
al ssSam Patch" Of good fellow. A
Dutchman, recently from "fadcr-
land" and acquainted with only q
dozen or 80 words of English, was
travelling on Patch's train afew days
ago, and finally says, "Misther Con-
ductor, how far nit do next sta
ton 2'' sTen miles," says Mr..
Patch. II tink So" says tho Dutch
man. After passing tho station he
enquircd again chow far nit de next
station :" aTwelve miles," politely
answered the Conductor. aYaas, /
tink co." says the inquisitive passon-
ger. And SO it passed at each station,
the same answer and the same re-
Spouse, till Mr.. Patch became annoy
cd, and to give the old Dutchman an
extinguisher, to his questions, finally
says, "Why SO many questions, do
YOU think I am an Internal fool ?'-
HYaas, l tink so, / tink So" quietly
responded the old Dutchman.

Married.-Sunday evening, June
It'll, 1868, in st. Mary's Protestant
Episcopal Church, by the Rector,
Rev. J. E. Ryan, Mr.. Jos. FL. PorTs,
and Miss M. FLORENCE WEBER,
daughter of. W. Weber, Esq, both
ofthis city.
Accompanying the above notice
was one dollar greenback, which
proves conclusively that both parties
knew what they wero doing when
they emigrated to the State Of Mat
rimony, and We predict that if any
new States should in the course of
human events, be admitted into the
Union they have just formed, that
they will be loyal stars in the con-
stellation.
The married two-thirls Of the CouR-
TER firm tender their congratulations,
and tho unmarried bachelor third
being absent. we fear to include, be-
cause it seriously affects him to say
anything about marriage, in fact
makes him angry to see . marriage
notice in the paper, and we begin to
suspect, that he has been trying hard
to emigrate too, but has not yet found
anybody that would keep him COM
pany, and tho poor fellow is afraid to
60 it alone.
We find this interesting little item
in the Gate City, which settles be-
yond doubt at much vexcd ques-
ton, whether Sam. Clark would

time ago as lying in a critical condi-
ton from the effects Of dose Of
glass administered by his own hands,

Of her ambition, and in default Of
payment Of fine went to Jail for 10

be mans wife, and roosting with
him unlawfully, and for boisterous
and lewd conduct generally, went to
