DEMoREsT's "YoUNa AMERICA. Young
America is one of the most popular juven-
lie publications; there is freshness to ii
that we find in no other, and variety that
satisfies even the desire of children FOR
novelty. Half the good things to be found
in other childrens periodicals have been
derived from this, which seems inexhaust-
ible in Its suggestions. One of its very
best features is the interest it cxcites in
children, by allowing them to appear as
correspondents in its columns. 1t is well
worth the small sum asked for it, of 81 so
per annum, with a premium. Published
at 93S Broadway, N. Y.

- Proceedings have been commenced in
the Common Pleas Court of this county,
by man named Lewis H. Miller. and his
wife, Victoria Miller, of Illinois, to obtain
possession of certain property in this place
which they claim belongs to Victoria Mil
Ter as an heir of Julia Miller, who formerly
lived in this place. The property owned
by Julia Miller is the lot on which the
grocery Of John Sanders and part of j F..
Ely's new block now stand, and some
other lots in another part of town. Julia
Miller had five children. She left this
place number Of years ago, taking with
her one child, a girl, then a babe, and
leaving the other four childien with friends
or relatives in this vicinity. Whatever
became of her and the child she took with
her, we believe was not certainly known,
but she is supposed to have died some
time after leaving here, and the four chill
dren she left here disposed of their portion
of the property. The fifth heir was neger
heard from until recently, when this Lew.
is H. Miller comes up and claims that his
wife is the child taken away from here by
Julia Hill, and is entitled to one-ffth of
the property owned by her at the time of
her death. R. A. Harrison, Of London,
and G. A. Palmer, of this place, are AttOr-
neys for the plaintiffs.

MONTHLY STooK SALEs.-G. N. Paul 4
Son propose to inaugurate system oI
monthly sales Of stock and personal prop.
erty ofall kinds, at this place, commencing
on Tuesday, July 18th, 1860. A Register
will be kept and all property assigned to
them for sale entered in the order in which
it is assigned, and offered at auction on
sale-day in the order in which it is enter
ed. These monthly sales may be made of
great advantage to the community if peO'
pie will take hold of il and bring in their
stock and other property which they have
to dispose of to be offered on sale days,
thus bringing together large amount Of
stock for buyers to select from and thereby
inducing buyers to attend. 1t will work
advantageously to both buyers and sellers
and furnish good market for the sale of
such property. These monthly sales are
in operation in number of places around
us, and work very successfully, as we
hope to see them do here. We would like
to see large amount Of stock and good
attendance of people at the sales on Tues
day, July 18th, 1869.

BANp.--We are informed that an effort
is being made to organize Cornet Band
in this place. The plan proposed is, that
the citizens raise money by subscription
to purchase instruments, and the band
agree to furnish music for all political oc-
casions and for the Agricultural Fairs for
two years in payment for them. The
plan, we should think, ought to succeed.
Almost enough money is paid out annually
to bands from other places to purchase
set of instruments and organize band of
our own, which would be a great source Of
pleasure and convenience to our citizens.
7. D. McElwain, we believe, is sndeGvor-
ing to effect the organization. n
w Rev. Mr.. Pindur, the Catholic priest
who ministared to the Catholic congrega-
tions at Circleville and this place, was
married few days since to Miss Sulli'
van, at Cleveland. That's what's the
matter. The Rev. came out in card.
which we published few weeks since,
renouncing the Catholic theology, and was
accommodated from the priesthood by
Bishop Rosecrans. 1t was wickedly init.
mated at the time that woman might be
the cause of his distaste for the observance
of the duties and eeremonlals Of "THE
Church"
