meetings? They understand he il
speaking for the Democratic party
YOU may be sure, else they would
not touch him. 1t is simply a cloal
to hide his real purposes, that h,
may the more readily gull some
body. 1t is the trick of dema
gogue.
Rev. R. A. Arthur, well knowr
in this city, has been transferred
from the West Virginia NJ. E. Con
ference to the Cincinnati Conference
and is stationed for the coming veal
at Manchester, Adams county.
-Cary's speech, we Judge, inter.
ested the money lenders, if it did not
the workingmen. We saw a mum
ber of these per cent fellows hanging
around his hotel Sunday morning,
seemingly pleased and anxious to
get look at their friend.
The steamer Victor No. 3 will
make an extra trip next Tuesday,
for the accommodation of those wish
ing to attend the SHERMAN meeting
on that day.
Col. CoNNELL, the Democratic
candidate for Attorney General, was
here by appointment of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee,
Thursday evening, to make a speech.
Our very clever and accommodating
Sheriff, Capt. BLAZER, had the court
room all ready, but the crowd did
not come. Twelve, counting the
speaker, were all that appeared. As
a result, there was no speech. We
condole with McCafferty, Gates &
Co. over their sore disappointment.
GRANT, the peoples friend in
truth and in deed, has reduced the
working expenses of the govern
ment, since he took the reins in his
hands, about TWENTY FIVE per cent,
and the public debt, in six months,
over $49,000,000. "Actions speak
louder than words" Farmers, me-
chanics, laboringmen, it is no time
to "swap horses" Vote for Hayes
and the entire Republican ticket.
-"Seven by nine"--Cary.
He could have done better, but
those late hours, on the steamer,
playing eucher for the drinks, played
the very ID with him. His friends
will excuse him this time.
Coates ajar," by Miss Phelps,
which has achieved so much noto-
riety in the literary world, has no
reference whatever to Gates, the
Democratic candidate for Treasurer,
all reports to the contrary, notwith-
standing.
The Democratic wire workers
are circulating a story to the effect
that the Republicans are using
threats against them. We do pro-
pose, on the second Tuesday of Oc-
tober, to give them "Booten" for
Recorder.
1t is reported that the "Old
Guard" pass their time during the
love feast's they hold, in closing
their eyes and singing,
Oh! where is dear, good Daniel?
Obi where is dear, good Daniel?
Oh! where is dear, good Daniel?
Safe in the promised land.
This has reference to the return
of Gates to the fold.
F The following is the business of

S Our old friend H. H. Drown,
formerly Captain of the steamer Wild
Wagner, and who everybody in this
region knows well, has become sole pro-
prietor Of the Spencer House, Cincin-
natl, one of the best hotels in the
Western country. There is no one
more deserving of prosperity, and the
patronage of the travelling public, than
Capt Drown, for he is untiring in his
efforts to please, and is kind to every
one, be he ever so humble The table
well, every one in this section knows
what the table on the Wild Wagner
used to be, and Capt. Drown keeps up
his reputation in that line splendidly.
We rather think the Captain improves
on it. We trust all who may be going
to Cincinnati will not forget the Cap
tain and the Spencer House, for he is
one of US and well deserves our patron
age. This is no paid puff, at so much
a line, but written because we like the
man and knoso tito be true.
County Infrmary.
We are indebted to ]. j. POOLE, Esq,
clerk of the Board of Directors, for the

ters for the last quarter, to-wit:
