New FENCE--The Union Fence Co. are
putting up one of their substantial fences in
front and by the side of the new school house
on St. Clair st. 1t adds greatly to the looks
of that fine building.
FAIRPoRT.-D E. Bailey, Esq, reports that
they have resumed work on the piers at Fair
port. The appropriations of last year are suf-
ficient to complete the work undertaken by
the Messrs. Bailey. The $6O,OO0 appropriation
last made for our harbor, has not yet been
touched, and will, i'll all probability, be ex-
pended in lengthening the east pier, and in
Strengthening the west one so as to make it
parallel to that on the east, apd then the river
will keep its mouth open and free from sand,
and ready to swallow any and every sized YES
sci that may seek an entrance.
PERsoNAL.-Gen. Easement is in town look
ing hale and hearty as though he hand'nt been
laying from three to five miles of Pacific Rail-
way track daily since early in the spring.
The General reports favorably concerning
the health of all the boys from this vicinity.
The General gives it as his opinion, that by
the 4th of July next, passengers will be able to
90 from here to San Francisco by railroad
So may it be- The SHOWS of the Rocky Noun
tains will be very soothing on that hot day.

WHAT DOES SHE MEAN I'm the last num-
her of The Recolutop, we find the following
mysterious sentence over the initials ''E. {. 5"
"We can vote and take care of our babies too,
but when that good day comes, and woman is
independent and self-supporting-a she will
be when with the ballot she opens to herself
the colleges, the trades and the professions-she
will then choose the father of her children and
sunder all the unholy ties that now degrade
and desecrate the family relation" This SEN
tence involves two or three distinct PROPOSE
tions, either of which admits of a very mis-
chievous Interpretation, if viewed in the light
of any orthodox standard of morals. IL nu-
mates that women now have no choice OF hus-
bands and the natural inference is that, with
the triumph of ''woman's rights" is to come
an era of "free love-" or promiscuous materni-
ty. lin which men may or may not have a
choiceO and the abolition of all fixed family
relations. Is it the mission of The Rerolwtion
to either directly or indirectly introduce such
ideas TO our sisters and daughters

RUNAwAY-A horse belonoing to and driven
by Mr.. Robert Woodruff, took fright on Friday
evening last, ran up Main to Center street, and
finally fetched up near Van Pelts Grocery
Store. Mr. Woodruff was thrown upon the
walk and considerably injured about the face,
not dangerously.
PorAToEs.-From observation and general
report, we can say of the potatoe crop-alrs
well. The vines look thrifty and of good
color, indicating that they have taken firm
root The crop needs rain at present. The
dreaded Colorado bug is creating more appre-
hension, but sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof" They can't do much damage

M-. Editor: The Erie Fire Compony re-
quires larger number of men to bring out the
capacity of their machine, and obtain fronr it
the effectiveness of which it is suSceptable.-1
The company need to fill up its ranks and
man it fully and efficiently = thirty men.
This want has led the foreman on behalf of
the company, to ask the attention of the citi-
zens to the importance of sustaining, to the
highest degree the usefulness of the fire de-
partment and appeal to them to aid in filling
up the company. The fact that our village
has been fortunately preserved from fire is a
pleasant one, but the policy of relying upon
good luck for the future, will hardly be admit
ted to be sound. A destructive fire may occur
at any hour, and find us un-prepared While
too, we have the means of security, should
not these means be made available to their
full extent, by bringing into the company a
full roll of members. These are inducements
not only to those who have property at risk,
but also to those who are subject to- road tax,
military and jury duty,-each of which would
be tax that would more than counterbalancc
the expenses of each member of the company.
1t is known that the company was started
by the elder citizens of the village, but a
cordial tnritatiOn is now extended to all good
citizens, to give us helping hand to keep up
sufficient force to quench the raging ele-
ment whenever it may threaten us.
While we are in perfect harmony with Pro-
lection Co. No. 1, )" and mean to combine our
efforts with theirs for the general good, we
wish to present Phalanx of strength that will
cope with any corporation of our size in the
state
Hoping that all good citizens will give this
appeal their attention, and rally to the STAN
dard of the fire department
We remain yours, &c,

THE LONDON Press ON THE NOMINATIONS.
-Telegrams announcing the final result of the
ballotings in the National Democratic Con-
vention, were promptly received by the Lon
don journals These dispatches evoke coui-
ments from the press generally unfavOrable to
the success of the ticket, and indicate a
better knowledge of our politics and political
men, than is sometimes shown of the geogra-
ply of this side. The London Standard thinks
that sanguine Democrats themselves may well
doubt if Horatio Seymour can defeat the most
popular American. The London Ne,cs says
the Radical party will exult over the Demo
cratic defeat which is certain to follow the
selection of so weak a candidate as HoratiO
Seymour. The Ne,os thinks the country need,
ed stronger and more healthful opposition
than it is likely now TO have, and believes thai
the intelligent Americans will soon acknow.
ledge this with regret. The London Herald
treats the coming contest as forgone conclu
| sion. The Herald is I" not sure" if the best man
the Democracy could select could not oppose
Gen. Grant with advantage on the question Of
keeping faith with the Southern States and the
bondholders, but Grants personal eminencc
and popularity would probably elect him in
| any event
