HIsroRIcAL SOCIETY RELIcs-The County
Commissioners of Ashtabnla county, says a
Jefferson correspondent Of the Herald. have
recently caused a suitable showcase to be
made and placed in the Courthouse, for the
safe deposit Of ancient relics Of the County
Historical Society. The relics here presented
are interesting and curious, many of which
are of Indian origin, found in Indian burying-
places, camps, &c. There are several files OF
old newspapers here preserved-the Weekly
Recorder, printed at Chillicothe, OhO in 1915 /;
the Ashtabula Recorder, published at Ashta-
bula, in 1924, by Asa w. W. & j. Hickox.
This was the first sheet printed in the county.
There are also copies of the Windham Comm
Herald, printed in 1896, looking decidedly
musty. The last and most ancient-loOking
specimen of typography is a warrantee deed,
conveying certain lands in Norfolk township,
Litchfield county, in the Colony of Connecti-
cut, executed May 2S, 1865, during the sove-
reign reign of King George the Third. ,,,,

The ECLIPsE.--This grand astronomical
event came of according to the previously
announced programme, and justified and
verified scientific Representation. An un-
clouded sky propitiously favored observations,
and made the business very interesting one
from about five o'clock until near sunset Ii
may lie truthfully put down as a perfect sue
cess in the line of exhibitions. II came off
promptly upon time, and when 1t got through
1t was done, and nobody was yexed and tired
with the bad taste often exhibited of an undue
continuance. During Its greatest obscurationa a
strange shadowy pallor of light overspread the
earth, and gave to the countenance the hue
and aspect of death. This fact impaired to it
a feeling of awe, but was not of sufficient
intensity or duration to make 1t perceptibly
profitable and salutary upon Democratic igno-
rance or sbduracy, SO that the abandonment
of the error of their ways may not be classed
as among the fruits OF this Unusual event
Though this may cause some Republican dis
appointment, 1t could not he helped. At Ra-
leigh, North Carolina, the eclipse was total.
This was the nearest point Of totality to us,
but the belt Of about one hundred and fifty
miles extended across our continent from
Alaska to Alabama. The rest of the world
had nothing to do with ii, for the reason, per-
haps, that such q panoramic show could not
have been gotten up anywhere else, II, indeed,
it could have been adequately appreciated.
If there was any mistake about the matter, II
was, we think, that the chief point Of obscura-
ton was not at jefferson, that the full effect of
Its awe and grandeur might have been there
produced. and the power of the editor Of the
Sentinel as the local divinity and spiritual agla'
