The cotton prospect, 50 bright four weeks
ago, has been visited by a blight that will
cut short the hopes entertained Of the yield
to a considerable extent. This blight II un-
accountable, unless produced by the long
dry spell that at first gave the plant such an
appearance Of prosperity. Suddenly IL lost
its green fourishing color, and assumed the
turn yellow and ml or leaving the stalk In
many instances bare and the hollis fail tc
realize a good size. So we fear after ali the
hopes we had, there will be a shortening
in the yield of cotton this year,-Canton

Letter from a Republican.

OKOLONA, Sept. 22nd, 1869.
Editor Clarion The county is rapidly
uniting on the Union Republican ticket. All
that we lack is that the uninformed people
should be fully enlightened as to the respec-
tive parties. With few exceptions, the
white men will be unit-except a few who
are willing TO sell their country for place.
There is an effort being made by the Ex-
treme Radicals TO impress upon the eolored
men that loyalty consists in their being enc
mics of their own race. This is not their
language, but their meaning. A few low
bred white men is all they (the Rabid Radi-
cals) will have with them.

a Private Opinion for Public
WISa.

Rev. James Lynch publishes card adj
hitting that he wrote the letter of June
22nd declaring that the North and the
South were equally responsible for slavery
and the war, that the white Republicans
(RadicaIs) in the State were few in num-
Der and without influence, and that the
colored people would stand shoulder to
shoulder with the Southern whites as soon
frage and Universal Amnesty. He says,
however, the letter was marked "conf-
DENTAL" though he asseverates that it was
written for public use. We are not ap-
priced that this private document for gen
eral circulation, was so marked. At all
events it was not written to a gentleman
of this city, as he supPoses. The letter
to a citizen of jackson was written sever
al months afterwards, and since he has
introduced it we viii remind him that it
is much stronger i'm its reflections on the
white Republicans Of the carpet-bag per
suasion than the one we have published.
If Lynch insists that this private letter Of
his for public use, was nevertheless ''con-
fidential," he cannot say as much for his

THE NEW RAnRoAD.-The matter of q
new line of Railroad from this city via
WoodYille, Tifin, New London, Wooster,
Massillon, Canton, New Lisbon, Ohio,
and Beaver, Pa, to Pittsburgh, was bro't
before our railroad trustees, on Saturday
last, by Hon. Martin Welker and Gen.
Harvey Howard, of Wooster. These gen.
tlen0n expressed great confidence in both
the feasibility and the importance of the
project, and gave assurances of strong To-
cal support. Active steps are already be-
ing taken toward the organization of a
company for its prosecution, and an early
survey is regarded as certain. The Pitts
burgh connection, important as it would
be to the road and to Toledo, is not the
only advantge TO be derived from it. At
that point it is designed to connect with
the ConnellsVille road, being a branch of
the Baltimore and Ohio from Cumberland,
Nd, to be completed this year. The dis.
tance between Toledo and Pittsburgh wo'd
by this route be shortened some 20 miles,
while that to Baltimore would he reduced
from 625 to $50, being u saving of rs
miles. The importance to Toledo of q
good Pittsburgh connection has frequently
been referred to in these columns, furnish
ing, as it would, not only improved adVan-
tages TO the already large trade Of the two
cities, but also opening to rs the choice at
that point of the three important markets
of New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
Hence we hardly need express our interest
in the project proposed, which has the ad-
ditional high recommendation of placing
Toledo in connection with several Of the
most important points in northern Ohio,
and opening to Us most valuable coal IA

A VERY VALUABLE BoOK. ALWAYS
take pleasure in recommending a book
which has all the qualities that meet our
ideal of what good book should be; in
which the subject is one of interest and
Importance, the style attractive and pleas
ing, and the illustrations and details lucid
and complete. We find suct q book in
the Peoples Edition of ConybeaTe and
Howson's Life and Epistle's of ST. Paul, -
just rePublished in this country by the Ma
uonal Publishing Company of Cincinnati.
This work has all the attractiveness of
fiction, in the exciting events of its nara
tives, with the certainty that they are the
truthful records of well authenticated facts,
embracing grapic and eloquent delineations
of the early life, education conversion,
teachings, labors, travels, sufferings, per-
lis, prosecutions and missionary career of
the great Apostle. 1t stands alone and un-
approachable in its speciality, all that cod
be desired, in the way of history, state
ment, comment, criticism and illustrations,
relating tO-the vital subject of which it
treats. The great learning and power and
beauty of style, do not constitute its high
est praise. This is found in its moral and
religious spirit, in its pro eminent Christian
candOr and impartiality, in its solemn
earnestness for historic truth, its manly
and unyascilating faith in the doctrines
proclaimed by the fearless subject of its
biography, all combining to make it one
of the grandest monuments of sanctified
intellect and learning ever reared to the
honor of Sacred Truth.
This reprint will be more highly priced
than any other, as it is the only Complete
Edition published in this country with
translated notes.
1t has in addition an able and exceed
ingly valuable dissertation by DR.. Leonard
Bacon. the eminent Professor of Theolo-
gy in Yale College, preparing the reader
for the graphic account of the life and
writings of the great Apostle. p It's pictor-
ial illustrations, its type, paper and bind
ing, are in keeping with the rare merits of
the book.
Mr.. J. V. Lerch is the canvassing agent
for Canton and Massillon, and No one
more worthy could have the work.
