The Eclipse Of August 7th.-An
Eclipse of the sun or moon is not now re-
garded With the snPerstitiOus awe vita
which It used to Oppress the minds Of men,
before science had demonstrated its cause,
and the regularity ofits recurrence. It now
becomes an object of study, of interest or
curiosity, in proportion as individuals regard
it There are usually from two to seven
eclipses in each year. When two they are
of the sun, when four two of each, when ak
four of the moon aud two Of the sun, when
seven five are Of the sun and two of the moon.
These are but partial. The present eclipse
is called total, and will be 80; along the line
Of total eclipse, and Tor 10 mileson each side
of said liue, which begins near Lake Baikal,
in the South part of Siberia, and sweeps up
in curve to the northeast, crossing into
America near Behring's Straits, then bend
ing gradually to the south passes near
Des Moines, Iowa; Springfield, ILL.,; Lexing-
ton, KY; and Raleigh, ~ O.; ending in the
Atlantic Ocean, about 700 miles east of
Charleston South Carolina.
In this vicinity the eclipse will commence
about half-past four and end about half past
six. At about half-past five the eclipse will
be greatest, and then about seven.eighths of
the suns surface will be excluded from view
by the moon. At its greatest the appear

ADDREss-soLDIERs' ORPHANS
HOME.

On Sunday evening the Pastors of some
of the churches of Fremont suspended their
usual evening services for the purpose Of
giving theircorgregations the opportunity of
joining the citizens of Fremont, in meeting
at the Methodist Church, with special refer
ence to the duty they owed to help the move
ment forward, that proposes to provide and
sustain Home for the destitute children Of
soldiers OF the State Of Ohio, who we're killed
or died in the service of the government
General r. P. Buckland presided at the
meeting-which was opened by singing and
prayer, by the Rev. DR.. Bronson. After the
remarks of Gen. B. explaining the object
sought to be attained, and urging the duty
upon all to cooperate, the Rev. G. W. Col.
lier-who by appointment is charged yith
the duty of laying the matter before the
people Of Ohio, and securing their aid-gavs
an interesting account of his visit to Homes
similar to that which is contemplated for
Ohio 1n the State of Wisconsin where 300
children are thus cared form Iowa where
1000 children are adopted and provided for;
land in nlineis where 275 children are re-
eeiTing like care, the Home haYing been
opened only three weeks ago.
The Rev. DR.. Bronson, of the Episcopal
church, followed the Rev. Mr.. Collier, urging
the enterprise as a moral duty, which neither
christian or CITIZEN ought to ignore. he
Rev. A. Wheeler, Of Berea, who is supplying
the pulpit of the Methodist Church in the
absence of Mr.. Collier, spoke in favor of the
movement and Rev. Mr.. Bushnell, of the
Presbyterian church, urged cooperation as a
christian obligation, and spoke hopefully of
the spirit with which Ohio would respond
to the call.
A committee, consisting of Gen. Bucklan2,
chairman, T. Stllwell, David Belts, David
June, and l. NJ. Keller, was appointed, who
met at the office of Everett d Fowler, on
Monday morning, where 1. N. Keller was
chosen Secretary, and after consultation,
adopted the following resolutions:
ResOEved, That we hail with pride the Of
fort that is making to provide home for
the children of our dead soldiers; that it will
be found in the abundant success attending
this effort throughout the State, that its de.
lay was not because Of unwillingness, ina
blity or forgetfulness of the soldier that
Ohio's place in the column in the future as
in the past will be found in front.
ResoIUed, That Fremont and Sandusky
county sent her strong, brave, men in no
stinted number, to fight the battles of her
country; she will furnish her share Of the
money necessary to provide home and ed
ucation for the destitute orphan children of
the soldier who, in the hour of danger, stood |
between US and wars desOlation.' -

Soldiers do not think he is right and fol-
low him. Do as yOu would have done, had
he deserted you at Stone River or Ohica-
mauga, Say, we can get along without
him, and let him go. Every man must make
his last step in this world. and 1 think he
has raised hiH foot for that step.
Z he must have foEgOtten the letters be
wrote in SO and "a, especially his letter to
the General Assembly of the State Of Ohio,
IN which be says, who entertains the SEN
timsnt, Is Iit only for slave; he who uiters
it at this time, moreover, is traitor to his
country, who deserves the scorh and con-
tempt of all honorable men, AccordiBg to
his own letter, he cannot expect much Ieas
than scOrn and contempt from sll thinking
men; and there are thousands who have ten
der wounds and dear sacrifices To remembeF.
which viii not be forgotten during this gem
erat;5l.
To see the fathers, mothers, brothers and
sisters, at the decoration Of soldiers graves,
would convince you that the past was not
forgotten. There are too many memorials
standing in our cemetsries to be easily over
oOked or forgotten. But we voters must
look to the future as well as the past There
is work to be done this fan, and we must all
be up and doing. IfyOu cannot do much,
get out anyway, and perhaps you can get in
the opposite partzt way, 50 you wiz do
some good in that wuy. Every man must
work, and every woman must talk until the
campaign Is over. This election Is no small
affair. 1t ID taking man from our ranks to
ill up vacancy in,their'S, or for the want
Of one that is available enough, they come to
us.
1t seems strange that they should be re-.
duced to the painful nscesaity:of nominating
one Of the Lincoln hirelings. But they
find that the Lincoln hirsliDgs' are the men,
after slI;snd no doubtsince the danger is past,
they wish they had been Ofthem themselves.
But that time is past, and the best they can
do is to take up what the Republican party
has left off. =
1 have nothing to say sgainst Gen. Rose
Grams. During my acquaintance with him,
he was gentleman and good soldier; but
am sorry be has got where he is, and tor
fear that some other good soldier might be
drawn in his train, warn you to beware Of
the cheat that will be practiccd upon you
this fall, AN OLD SOLD1ER.

New Ourrsncy.-Fifteen cent notes are
now being issued for general circulation, and
new style Of ten cent note has been put
in circulation. The vignette on the fifteen
cent note is figure of America cOveredwit
an eagle-crested helmet. The scroll work
is admirable, and so intricate that to the
naked eye many of its beauties are not Visi-
bic. In dimensions the new notes are small
Ter than the old ones, the 10 being 3 SIG
inches long by 7-s wide, and the Is 3 12
by 1 1916. The paper on which they are
printed is also much better than heretofore
used, having been made of linen stock
specially imported. The National Bank
Company is preparing plate, which will be
in all probability the finest engraving of the
series. II is the reverse of so cent note,
and for beauty and intricacy of design and
artistic execution is equalled by few works
of its kind and excelled by none. The face
of this note is to have portrait of President
Lincoln.

How to Increase the Growth Of oul
Town.-The following lines are like sands
of gold, and will turn into ingots, TO any
towns, city, or community, that follows tbs
counsel contained therein; U II
The true secret of the growth of any place
is mainly owing to the inducements and en-
couragements held out to strangers to settle
among them. Encourage active and worthy
men, whether they have money or not
Their labor alone is worth money. Stimu.
late ever legitimate enterprise by giving il
all the friendly aid 10 your power. Cultivate
public spirit and help your neighbOr; if he
Is in danger of breaking down, help him up
If he gets fairly down, before you know his
situation, set him on his feat again; his mis-.
fortune is to be pitied, not blamed, and his
talents and labor are worth money to the
community. Besides, it may some day be
our turn to need corresponding sympathy
Let US speak well of our neighbOrs. Tall
wen and encOuragingly of our town, of its
growth, its prospects, its advantages, and,
il short everything likely to advance its
welfare.

We commend the following article to
the careful reading of our citizens, There Is
not word in it but is equally applicable to
Fremont. Manufacturing is the life-blood
of every community; and in proportion as il
is meagerly or plentifully carried on, the
community is impoverished Or prosperous.
Let our citizens examine the subject, and 60
to work. If we cannot have large agricul-
tural works. let Us have at least a lock fac
tory, or novelty works or more wagon
shops, or wood working establishments.
Everything Of that kind will tell. We have,
in the hands of one our citizens, patent
lock, one of the best, If not tke best ever in
vented. He is willing aud anxious that our
city should have the advantage of its manu-
facture. Locks are constant and ready sale,
and will be as long as houses are built and
occupied II can be manufactured cheaply,
and will afford large profit. It's manufacture
here would employ more mechanics, and

city. VIII not our citizens take hold of it I

No eclipse so great as this has occurred
since the summer of 1886, although more
moderate one occurred in 1854. Another
like that Of 1854 will occur in September,
1875, but none like the present until the
year 1900. The best way to view the eclipse
is through smoked glass, and if the day is
clear no one should lose the opportunity Of
bsboldiDg its beauty. There will be no
postponement, however, con account of the
weather. and should the day be cloudy
many will lose the opportunity to behold a
sight which may not occur again in their
life time
