Benefits Of MANUFACTURES.

| Are manufactures beneficial to a town
or communityf There seems to be but
one answer to this question, and that is
an affirmative one. In the first place, 1t
requires capital to establish them upon
successful basis. just so much wealth
then is already added to the town or
community, which will lessen the taxes
in the proportion as 1t Is part of the
aggregate wealth of the place. This is
one benefit derived. In the second place
operatives are necessary to carry on the
work. Employment is thus given to a
certain number of persons, who receive
pay for their work. This money is spent
among our business men, or at least a
part Of it is, for the necessaries Of life.
These men make their profit ON what
they sell, and thus indirectly reap ben
eft from the primary source of labor.
But this is not all. The workmen art
enabled to lay aside part of their earn
ings, and are by and by enabled to pur-
chase lot and build themselves home.
Is not this benefit to the community:
Is not every house that is built Just so
much more wealth added to the town:
Most assuredly it is. Nor is this all. An
establishment of this kind is continually
drawing money from abroad, as well as
securing at home, from the citizens OF
ist own community, what would other
wise necessarily 60 some where else for
the purchase of these necessary articles.
Many other reasons might be given why
manufactures are benefit to COM
munity, but we shall confine ourselves
to giving one or two instances of what
these institutions have done toward
building up place. Akron is known
far and wide for its business capacity,
and its rapid growth. 1t is all due to
the numerous manufacturing establish
ments. What has made Canton the
second city in size on the Ft.jWayne
road, between Pittsburgh and Chicago:
The answer is evident-manufactor
Let us 60 little farther east, on the
same road and we find Beaver Falls.
Two years ago 1t was an old, dilapida-
ted town of, perhaps, five or six hum
dred inhabitants. To-day its population
is nearly four thousand. Hundreds OF
new houses have gone up, sprung up, as
1t were, out of the gronnd.
The great secret is this: They have
one of the finest Cutlery establishments
in the country. They have also very
large File Factory. And then you Won
der what is going on in that long build
ing near the bank of the river, where
they keep up such terrible Gathering.
You 60 in, and find it to be Shovel
Mandatory. You go little farther
up the river, and you come upon the
Beaver Falls Glass Works. Then we
wonder what that long brick building
several hundred feet long--just in pro-
cess of erection is to be, the name OF
which we cannot ourselves, at present,
call to memory. 1t is for the manufac-
ture of some useful implement. There
is also large Stove Factory, and sever
al other smaller works. Hundreds OF
hands find employment in these various
places. The consequences are, the town
has had an exceedingly rapid growth.
All that is required, then, is capital and
encouragement, to make any town grow
and improve.

Winter has commenced in earnest.
During the past week it has been very
cold. The streams are all frozen over
to the depth of several inches. All day
Tuesday the ice packers were busy lay

eight inches thick.

Take Your Home PAPER.

The following excellent piece of ad-
vice is clipped from the November num-
ber of that most excellent of magazines
Godey's Lady's Book:
"We have always endeavored to i'm
press this upon our readers. Take your
own paper before subscribing to any out
of the town, county, or State in which
you reside. A good paper makes an in
telligent people. And in order to make
a good paper, it is necessary that the
publisher should have the capital. And
in order to get the capital he should have
a good subscription list. After that II
you want the Lady's Book, club with
your paper. You will get it SO much
cheaper"

Mr.. James Loveridge, one OF the Oldest

The Howe Sewing Machine.

We should judge from the numbe,
manufactured and sold a week, in the
United States, that this machine was the
most reliable for all kinds of sewing now
in use. Twenty-four hundred a week
ire sent out to the public. Notwith-
standing this large number the demand
for them is such, that the company have
been compelled to enlarge their Factory
and when completed will turn out 500
machines per day. l7tf.

Glover Seed.

More than seven thousand bushels of
Clover Seed have been bought and
shipped from this place during the fall
and winter. Who'll, Uhler & Co. have
shipped over $500 bushels, and H. & B..
Herzer have sent off nearly 5000 bushels,
while George Reed has purchased nearly
thousand bushels. Mr.. Reed, did not
commence buying until late in the sea-
son. There certainly must be a good
deal OF money scattered through the
county. The crop this year has been
good in this section of the country, and
the demand all the time increasing. We
think, however, that now is a very good
time to sell

The Democratic candidate for Prose
cutting Attorney, who is also the editor
of the Herald, having undertaken to sit
in judgement upon the qualifications Of
other people cannot complain if his own
are inquired into. We therefore respect
fully submit whether one who has suf-
icient legal knowledge to justify the as
piration to the Office of Prosecutor
ought not to know that the clause of the
Constitution which exempts Senators
and Representatives from arrest, during
the sittings Of the Legislature, does not
exempt an Assistant Clerk of that body
from liability on judgement obtained
against him in a civil suit And yet i
is by no means a secret that the Demo
cratic candidate for Prosecutor, who is
| also an Assistant Clerk Of the Senate
made application TO a Justice of the
Peace to have money which he haC
paid on judgement obtained agains
him in a civil suit refunded on th,
ground Of his privilege from arrest o.
execution in consequence of his being
an officer of the Legislature. An As
sistant Clerk of the Senate must be {
privileged character indeed, if his priv
Heges extend so far as to exempt hin
: from liability to pay for his food anc
raiment. But what shall we say of {
candidate for Prosecuting Attorney
whose knowledge of the organic law o
the State is so limited that he shoulc
seek to avail himself of Legislative priv
elege to have money paid on civi
, judgement refunded to him?

Yesterdays Summary of War News in the
Cincinnati Gazette.

Yesterdays Summary Of War News In the
Cincinnati Gazette.
On the Sth of August, two days after
the battle Of Woerth, Gen UlriCh, who
had been left IN command of Strasbourg,
was summoned by Lieutenant General
Van Werder to capitulate The sum
mons was refused, Gen. Ulrich declaring
that he would not surrender as long as
he had a soldier left to defend the city.
Active operations were at once begun
On the 9Th Of August the first shells
were thrown into the city, and from that
day on the siege has been pressed with
v1gor and persistence. The defense has
been as heroic rs the bombardment has
been terrible anS incessant, and viii
pass into history side by side with that
Of Saragossa. For forty-three days the
resistance was maintained-only three
DAYS less than the time occupied by Gen.
| Grant IN the reduction of Ficksburg.
Tuesday afternoon, the z7ths the white
fag was raised, and at two o'clock yes
terday morning the surrender was effec-
ted. One hundred and fifty officers and
seventeen thousand men laid down then
arms, and to-day the Germans are II
possession of the city.
The effect of this capitulation on the
fortunes of the war It IS not hard to pre-
dict. Seventy thousand men, engaged
in the siege, and the heavy guns thai
have been used, viii be at once free tC
be transferred to Paris. Moreover Prus
sia is placed in possession of another
/ important line Of railroad, and com
munication with Baden and the othel
South German States becomes easy anC
direct. That the capitulation viii have
a controlling influence on the war we dC
not believe, but its moral effect, as wei
as the material addition it permits to b.
made to the Prussian forces, will aik,
| operate in favor of the invader.
From Paris we have the usual rumor
many of them contradictory, and non'
of them indicating anything decisive. 1
is explicitly denied that Bazaine has ex-
pressed any intention of capitulating. I
IS denied that Orleans has surrendered
The French Government, It IS again re
ported, is considering the question of ;
removal from Tours.
