church was filled, mostly with children
and youths in their teens, who enjoyed
themselves grAndly. The appearance OF
somebody personsting Santa Claus, in
proper costume, fairly set the little folks
wild with delight. A pleasant feature OF
the evening was the presentation Of a
fine gold watch, in behalf OF the school,
church choir, and others, to Miss Ernst,
in appreciation Of her services at the or

ED. CHRONICLE As every city, toUr
and village in TrumSuIl county seems tc
think that they should zach have q rail.

to say? We have got one just completed,
the Niles & New Lisbon, and another in
prospect. The youngstown d RAVENS
has been surveyed through here, and DIR.
Porter, who was leader, knows about
where railroads ought to be built. 1 see
the Independent has the roadlocated past
Niles, because the grade is a little level
er; but railroads don't look after a few
feet of grade; it's freight they are after,
and that's what Niles hasn't got, as there
are more tons shipped from Mineral
Ridge in one day than from Niles in a
month. Mr.. Independent, that's where
ne get you.
The qualified voters ofSub- District No.
9, met at the school house on Tuesday
morning to vote for that sub-district to be
a separate school district. When the
votes were counted, every one was cast
for the separate district. The following
persons were elected Board of Education
for the separate school district of Min
eral Ridge: Joseph Stuart for three years,
Jonathan Warner for two years, and Da-
Vid D. Morris for n year. The Board
met on the 18th inst. and organized by
electing D. D. Morris, President, Jona-
than Warner, Treasurer, and Joseph
Stewart, Clerk.
A protrscted meeting has been in pro-
gress atthe Methodist Church for the last
two weeks. Miss Anchor, who breaches
occasionally, in a second Henry Ward
Beecher, and the sound, orthodox ser
mons that she breaches, never fail to fill
the church when it is known that she is
going to speak. She is certainly q bright
jewel in the church. About twenty per
sons have Joined the church.
The Ashland furnace, that has been out
for two months for repairs, was blown in
last week and is doing well.

within its precincts to disturb, in the
slightest degree, the %equanimity of its
people since the great Bear Hunt of 1867,
We nave had no murders, no hair breadth
escapes, either by land or sea; and no
"etopement;" and have no reason to sup
pose that any Of our young ladies would

you might about as well look for frogs in
Ireland as for any considerable number
of rats and mice in Southington. And

certain occasion, when the oysters were
at stake, it is said competition for the ap-
pendsges Of those little Varments ran so
high that at the day of final reckoning,
one party, more foolish than the foolish
virgins, was found to possess all the tails,
and the other party most ehesrfully paid
for the supper, and had a little money
left.
And now, your Honor, as the lawyers
Esy, we attribute no malice aforethought
to yourself, but strongly suspect that
some person, i~nstigated by the devil, and
not having the fear of God or nan before
his eyes, has been drawing rather largely
upon your extremely good nature.
Allow US to kindly suggest to the gen.
