Dear Sir-Moses H. Hussey, Esq.,, OF North Ber-

ing your Super Phosphate of Lime for fertilizer.
He says the Phosphate made difference in his crops
OF one half 1000 bushels) worth lbeng noted varie-
tes 80 per bushel, amounting to $1,000 thereturn
that $500 worth of stable manure would not have
brought large crop, beside the vast difference in
have to the same conclusion, and if the stand
ard OF yeur Phosphate is kept up, the consumption
will increase beyond calculation. Our advice to you
is make the best Phosphate that you can, and there
will be no lack of buyers; but woe to the manutac
turer who sends out a worthless article.
Yours truly, THOMPSON s. PUTNAM.

On Saturday night following they
entered the Warehouse belonging
to James Smart d. Co., broke open
his safe, and abstracted greenbacks
therefrom to the amount of about
800.
On Tuesday night last, they
broke q pane ofglass out Of q win.

Store and helped themselves to a
couple of pairs of boots, worth
about s27.
On Wednesday night, they en-
tered the Scioto House and visited
several of the rooms where persons
were sleeping, managing to get
possession Of 80 or 80, with which
they escaped unmolested. During
the same night they visited Tom.
Fee ny's Grocery, but were fired on
and frightened away. They also
attempted to break into the house
Of DR.. Jones, but were discovered
and &C mpelled to beat a hasty re-
treat. Making an attempt to get

they awakened Geo. Brunner, who

"vIsEBLE ADMIxTURE."


A case involving the validity OF
the "Visible Admixture" law of our
Democratic Legislature, was tried
last week in our County Court, the
result of which will be a salutary
lesson to those Democratic Trus-
tees, In this county and elsewhere,
who have heretofore refused to re
ceive the votes Of colored citizens,
in ODE Iience to the provisions OF
that law, and in disregard Of the
decision Of the Supreme Court, de-
claring it unconstitutional, null
and void"
At the last October election,
Messrs. Morrow, Polk and Mccoy,
the Democratic Trustees of Penn
ty,., refused 70 receive the votes OF
Sinclair Southard, Kee Rickman,
and Borderly Rickman, three col
ored citizens, who were clearly en-
titled to vote, under repeated de-
cisions of the Supreme Court, they
having a decided "preponderance
of white blood" The parties sued
the Trustees and employed Hon.
Mills Gardner and G. b. Gardner
Esq. to conduct the suit, The
Trustees employed Messrs Mat
thews, Sloane 4 Steel, and Barrere,
to defend them. The case came
up for trial, before q jury, cOmpos-
ed Of ten Democrats and tvo Re
publicans, with Democratic
Judge presiding. Only few wit
nesses had been examined, proving
clearly the prepondcrance Of white
blood In the plaintiffs, when the
council for the pfTrustees became
alarmed and proposed to compro.
mise, by accepting q verdict of S5
damages, and costs of suit. The
plaintiffs council accepted the prop
osition, and q verdict was rendered
accordingly. So it was decided by
a Democratic jury Of Highland
county, that colored citizens haze
a right to vote, the Democratic
"Visihle Admixture' law to the
contrary Notwithstanding And
the Democratic Trustees of Penn
tp,, have a nice little bill Of about
81, 200 council fees and costs to
pay, for gratifying their partisan
prejudices and refusing to receive
three Republican votes. Rather an
expensive luxury, gentlemen. Such
is the unpleasant predicament into
which our Democratic Legislature
have got three gentlemen of their
own party, by their mean, vindlc-
tive and unconstitutional legisla.
