changing hands than for some months, a
fraction over 1000 head being sold in this

during the same time were 202 car loads
of cattle, and 81 cars of sheep. The mar

The appended items are from last Sat

The Hubbard miners are consulting
whether to take the proposed reduction
of ten cents, or strike.
"A strange animal is said TO have been
seen for two OF three mornings near
Niles, with long tail, and travelling some
times on all fours, sometimes erect, and
sometimes by rolling. We suspect it is
the devil, left Youngstown since the pas
sage of the Liquor Ordinance.
Mr.. Henry Ernst met with a severe

means a board flew back out of it which
struck him a tremendous blow in the

and tainted. Being brought to conscious
ness, he again tainted. The shock upon
his nervous system was fearful. But
medical assistance wasimmediately sum-
moned, and he is at present recovering
slowly.
We have the dog LdW in full force.
No town of its size can boast more ours
than Niles. Scarcely a day passes but
from Squire Moore's to the river a dog
fight is seen, and in each case scores OF
witnesses of both sexes and all ages,
crowding round, may testify TO the dog
ged stubbornness of the combatants. A
team passed through the street recently,
accompanied by a dog. As they passed
the "old row." eight dogs and a purp
sailed forth for a chase. 1t was in the
morning, and they were free from hoarse-
ness. The voices ranged from a fine So
prano down to a heavy double bass. The
chorus they raised would have lone an
old hunter good. 1t was beautiful sight
and sound, but a failure in the one thing
desirsble-a tight.

Scarlet EeYnr.

Scarlet Fever.
As this disease is said to be quito
prevalent just nov in this city, we give
room to the following froman exchange
A New York Medical journal says
An eminent physician Of Boston robs
scarlet fever of many of its terrors by
prescribing for the patient warm lemon
ade with a little mucilage, as often as de-
sired, and the application of warmth to
the stomach. He directs that a sheet
should be wrung out of hot water and
laid on the stomach, renewing it as often
as it cools. Nothing else but the lemon
ade is to be given. With this treatment
he guarantees that not one in a hundred
cases will prove fatal. We have known
cider alone to cure more than one obsti-
nate case. A vegetable acid appears to
be the specific. Enough salt in child
ren's victuals may also be said to be a
prophylactie for eruptive fevers.

Items from the Hubbard journal

In response to numerous invitations
issued throughout the county, by his
honor, Judge Tuttle, delegates from ev-
cry township have been interviewing
the Grand Jury, which has been in ses-
sion most of the past week, in relation to
to a Grand Liquor Dealers Convention
which is announced to be held at War
rem some time during the coming week.
The delegation from Hubbard was over
thirty in number, which will insure US
a strong representation in the conven-
ton. The exact time of meeting is
not generally known, but it will
probably come together at the call OF
Sheriff Dickinson, who, it is thought,
viii exercise a sort of supervision oyer
the whole affair.
The impression has gone abroad that
all the miners hereabouts are ION a
strike" This is untrue, as but two OF
the mines in this region have been idle
for over two years. These two are the
Veach and Burnett, and Stewart coal
banks; the former has been idle about
six weeks, the latter about two weeks.
Mr.. ]. w. Leyde is ready to employ
from twenty-five to fifty men at his iron
ore mines.

Court Proceedings.

The case of Ralsa Clark rs. ReubeI
Sponsler, which was upon trial wheI
our report of last week closed, occupied
the time until Thursday, when a verde
was rendered in favor of the plaintiff fol
Sl,4S7.TT. The verdict, upon the frs
trial, was for about 5000. Taylor & Jone:
for plaintiff; Hutchins, Glidden & StuI
for defendants.
On Thursday the case of Edward Kecb
rs. Charles w. Andrews ct al, was tried
to the Court. This was a suit upon 8
land contract, and resulted in a decree
for plaintiff as against the defendant, C.
W. Andrews. Stun and Beaver for plain
tiff; Judge Glidden & Judge Sutliff for
defendants.
But little other business was done
during the week.
On Monday the case of Enos Austin ct
al. as. Wightman, was tried to the Court.
This suit was brought to reform a lease
Of the Austin House property, made
by the defendant to the plaintiffs about
April 1st, 1869, which, it appears, was
for five years from date, but was not
acknowledged as required by the statute.
Plaintiffs claimed that the omission to
have the lease acknowledged was a mis-
take merely, while defendant insisted
that at the time the lease was executed,
plaintiff Austin did not want the lease
acknowledged, and distinctly declined
to have it acknowledged. The Court
found for plaintiffs, and decreed the lease
reformed, as prayed. Judge Hoffman
for plaintiffs ; Ratliff & Moses for defend
ant.
George W. Newton was granted a di-
vorce from his spouse, Lilly A. Newton,
on the mild grounds of adultery and
attempts on the part of Lilly to kill
George. Ratliff & Moses for plaintiff.
On Tuesday morning several prisoners
were brought over from the Jail and
arraigned on divers indictments, one of
which was for assault with intent to kill,
and another for assault with intent to
commit rape. The cases will probably
be tried during the week.
The case of Lucy Woodwork as. Leroy
Sanford, wherein plaintiff claims dover
in the American House property, at
Niles, was called up, and trial to the
Court commenced Tuesday as our report
closes.
