Murder on the Chesapeake and
Ohio b. r.

On Monday last man named Robt.
Hamlin, late of this city, was shot dead
on the first section of the Railway this
side of Charleston, W. Va.
The facts, as far as at present ascer.
tanned, are as follows:
A young man named Welch had
been cooking for the workmen in one
of the messes, but for some cause his
services were discontinued and he was
paid off. On his receiving his pay a
deduction was made for some bed cloth
ing which was observed to have been
secreted by him in his bag or box To
this deduction WEIGH took exception,
and having ascertained that Hamlin
was the person who had given the in
formation respecting it, he went to
Charleston, purchased revolver, re-
turned to the vicinity of the work, and
meeting Hamlin after some words, shot
at, and killed him, the fatal shot pass
ing right across and through the abdo-
men. Hamlin died on the packet Hunt
ington, Tuesday evening. on his way
to this city, Welch is still at large.

Prospect for Symmes Greek.

We have, at last, snthentic intelli-
gence, that President Hun tington in
tends to bridge the Ohio river at the
mouth of Symmes Creek, and to ex-
tend the c. & o. R. R. up, the valley
of that stream to Columbus. 1t has
been known for some time that COM
binstions, at Columbus, have been
steadily at work to procure the pro.
longation of the line in that direc,
ton, and the prospective success of
these schemes was the cause assign.
ed for the sudden apathy of Colum.
bus in the c. & 1. project.
We, however, learn that the aim of
President Huntington does not meet
with the unanimous approval Of the
Directors, and that the opposition OF
the latter is so warm that slight
doubt still obscures the prospect

ALBINo SNAKE.-Col. T. S. Gra-
ham, just from the vicinity of Gau-
ley Bridge, West Virginia. place
abounding in curiosities-tells US
that one day last week young man
from New York-a snake hunter and
charmer-captured alive, after two
days hunt, a white snake, five and a
half feet long. Its eyes were red
and its tail terminated in a horny
point, as sharp and hard as a locust
thorn. The top of its head from
the nose to the neck was covered
with a shell of the hardness and
texture of q turtles. The man who
captured it seemed to have it
charmed, aud would let it wind
around his neck and squirm, and
hiss its red forked tongue in his face
with perfect Indifference. He was
taking it to a museum in New York
City, and expected to receive $500
for it. We don't know what will be
captured in that region next-Parts.

E The attention of parties inter-
ested is called to the following para
graph, copied from the rules and reg
ulations of the Gas Company:
"All persons are cautioned against
unconnecting the meters, or in anyway
interfering with them, as they will be
charged for all injuries caused to the
meters. and repetition will render them
liable to have the gas turned off and
the meter taken away, and NO FILTER
will be allowed under any circum-
stances whatever to interfere or uncon-
meet any METERS"
We are requested to call attention to
another matter. The contractor for
putting up the city lamps has missed
two lanterns, and, in expectation that
they have been left with parties in
town and then forgotten, this notice is
prepared. If parties know of their
whereabouts, they will please leave
word at the Gas Works.

For Fever and Ague, intermittent Fever,

Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &C.,
and indeed all the affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatio
poisons.
As its name implies, it does Care, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis
muth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, il in nowise Injuries any pa
tient. The number and importance of its cures
in the ague districts, are literally beyond account,
and we believe without n parallel in the history
Of Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by the
Acknowledgements we receive of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other rem
edies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be
protected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.
For LigeT Complaints, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, it is excellent remedy, stmu-
lating the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an excellent remedy, producing many truly
remarkable cures, where other medicines had
failed.

onr Public Schools.

The Public School building is now
undergoing some very important
repairs. Arrangements are being
made tor heating according to the
best improved method. Ventilators
are being introduced, and much
more room will be secured.
Our Board of Education are on a
sharp look out for the health OF the
children in these Improvements.
Red hot stoves and a foul atmos-
phere, from a want of ventila
ton, have made their sad record of
headaches and sickness Of various
kinds, in our schools long enough.
We are glad to see different state
of things. Another very important
measure is to be introduced. Month
ly reports Of every pupil in school
are to be made and sent to the par
ents; after they sign them they are
returned to the teacher to be used
again the next month, and so on for
each month during the year. Then,
at the close of the year, these month
ly reports will be arranged showing
the standing of the pupil for the en-
tire year. The report includes days
attended and absent; Times Tardy;
Per cent in class, and per cent in
department. This will place the
entire school life of the child direct
ly under the parents eye.

EPress of business, and want of
room, has prevented US heretofore from
speaking of our County ticket. An
other C, siieration, also, delayed COM
ment. The ticket speaks for itself,
and no commendation by its friends,
or censpre by its enemies, can add to or
detract from it. POWELL, MCDANIEL,
MULLINEUx--these are names known
to all, and they stand for honesty and
faithfulness. There are many other
good men in the county, but none whose
characters stand above those of our
nominees. With such ticket, the Re-
publicans of old Gallia can go into the
campaign certain that their choice will
be ratified by the people.

son Of Mr.. C. SEMoN, on last week.
An insect, of some kind, stqng him in
the foot, when the part began instantly
to swell, and quickly spread over the
entire body, which within a quarter of
an hour had quite the appearance of a
person suffering from dropsy. By the
aid of stimulants, freely administered
internally, the inflammation gradually
subsided, and he is now out of dan
ger.

prop gone. A comparative statement,
prepared at the Treasury Department,
shows that the expenses Of the Gov
ernment under Buchanan were $e.01
per head, and under Gen. Grant, last
year, $1.64 per head--both in gold
The Democratic structure must soon
go down again, SO rapidly are its props
being removed.

R The Colored Baptist Associa-

R The Colored Baptist Associa-
ton held their final meeting, at the
Fair Ground, on Sunday last, and
was largely attended. From an
early hour in the morning until long
past noon, crowds of persons, color
ed and white, arrived in buggies,
Wagons and every conceivable
mode of conveyance, until the ap-
proach to the meeting place became
quite choked up. Five steamers
added their living freight to the
throng, and about two o'clock the
largest gathering of colored people
that ever assembled at Gallipolis
were present. Nevertheless the
crowd were perfectly quiet and
orderly, and although refresh
ments were to be had, in plenty, no
unseemly conduct marred the quiet
religious department of the hun
dreds who have but lately escaped
from the lowest state of bondage; On
the contrary, their whole demeanor
might be compared much to their
advantage with many camp meet
ing of the white race, at which we
to have been present
and to have heard of.
Shortly after one o'clock P. NJ. the
exercises were opened with a hymn
and prayer, at the termination of
which Rev. J. NJ. MEEKs, of Circle
vile, addressed an attentive audi
ence, in O. discourse of nearly an
hours duration, and with an elo-
quence and force such as we have
seldom or ever heard excelled. His
text was taken from one of the epis-
ties of St. Paul, which he explained
with q clearness and precision,
which proved him to be q theologian
of no ordinary capacity and research.
After another excellent sermon, the
meeting adjourned, to assemble
again at the churches in town in the
evening. Not single accident or
unpleasantness occurred during the
the whole day.

E It is utter foolishness 10 ex-
pect that any protective tariff man
can be elected to Congress from this
District, on any Columbus
Journal.
Then elect Jewett and be done
with it. 1t is far better to have an
out and out Free Trader, than to
have one of the hobnobing kind.
