Trial of Moving Machines.-On Mon
day last, quite an interesting trial of moving
machines came off on The farm of Mr.. MCCAR.
ray, about two miles west of the village of
Weston. The trial origina ted with challenge
given by the Climax and Leader managers, who
failed to put in uheir appearance on The field.
Their reasons for exhibiting the white feather
was not stated.
notwithstanding this retreat OF the original
beligerents, there was a fine force Of machines
on hand to engage in the contest of which, from
the report the committee, the Sulky of Toledo,
and the Champion Of Springfield took the lead
ing Fart, In addition to the SO the Buckeye and
Etna entered the list with ight good spirit, and
il they failed in securing favorable report
from the committee it arose from no fault in the
effort put forth.
In order to test efectually the capacity ofthe
several machines, the committee caused them
to operate across the line of dead burrows on the
field, then passing on lines parallel with them,
aud then to pass over the burrows and uneven
surface of the field in an oblique direction. The
committee carefully examined the cutting ca
pacty and the quality Of the work executed by
each machine, on the several diversiLies of SUR
face In the field. ....
The report of the committee Is follows:
WESTON July 1s, 1870.
At the trial of mowers had this day on the
farm of Mr.. MoCA .JoHN MOK EB, b. s. BE-
vKRsrOcK and EVAN JONES were appoated a
committee to decide on the merits Of the com
peting machines, of which the following were
entered for trial; The Sulky Of Toledo, Cham
pion, Buckeye and Etna, The decision OF the
committee was IS follows
LIST. The Sulky is considered by them supe-
ror in ightness of draught and ease OF hand
ling.
I'd. The Champion is deemed BY them supe-
rior in point of strength and durability,
The committee also state that the work done
by each of these machines was so nearly uni
form that they cannot adjudge the superior
ity withouta further trial of their capacity aud
dTaught.
Sd. The Buckeye used on this occasion had
been FIVE years in use, they did not, therefore,
consider its imperfect work fair illustration Of
that machine as now constructed.
4th. The Etna was in bad order. Whether the
work performed by II was attributed to tho ma
chine or its operator, the committee could not
determine.

Returning HOmc.-Some of our young
men in this vicinity who experienced an attack
of the western fever, are now returning home
again. WILLIAM HAYS returned some two
weeks since after an absence Of about two years,
having visited portions Of Illinois, Iowa, Mn.
nesota and Wisconsin. He speaks in aattering
terms Of some portions visited, and thinks Of
returning. LoUY SMoNDs returned last week
alter an absence Of over two years in Minnesota
and Idaho Territory. JAMES wETN iaE, of Has
kns, returned on Monday from a two months
tour through the western States. He is favora-
bly, impres ed with portions of the west, more
especially the roads which, he says are decided
improved over those Of Wood county.

HIo' Tnh for y nieSln---B BV the decision of
Judge PENNYwELL, at NOrwalk, on Tuesday last,
our go-ahead ueghbors of Toledo have got rid
of the obstacle which impeded their grand rail-
way enterprise. We may now expect to see
some active work performed, and it will not be
long until the vast coal fields of Ohio aud
the vast lumber region of Northern Michigan
will be made direct tributaries to the weli-being
Of Toledo and of its citizens. From its central
location and unsurpassed advant ages for ship
ping by lake, canal and its vast network of rail-
roads, we may confidently expect to witness in
Toledo, within the next ten years, an increase OF
commerce, Of manufacturing enterprise and OF
population that will, in its comparative results
rival the growth of our most noted and most
prosperous cities. Hence we rejoice with our
neighbors in their recent triumph at Norwalk.

THE MOTHERS LULLABY.


Might bss drawn her curtain round,
Darkness steals along the ground,
Der our spirit fails q calm
Like some sweet, anhointing balm.
Softly, gently comes q strain,
Like the sound Of pattering rainj
'Tis mothers tender plaiut
To her child, without restraint.
Oh! what sound is half 50 SWEET
What with music so replete,
As this tender, gentle lay,
While we bid farewell to-dayf
What world of joy IL holds,
As her child she nearer fOldsj
Fen the music breathes prayer
For her darling slumbering there.
Lower, softer sinks the strain,
OFT repeated u has been;
Still her patient watch she keeps
Der her darling while ho sleeps.
How her mother love is stirred
BY the precious little word,
Gentle blossom 'mOng earth's flowers,
Darling treasure he Is ours.
Nearer to her boy she bends,
To her God this prayer ascends:
Keep. oh keep his spirit fair,
It'll you call him TO you there.
Softly, gently falls the strain,
Like the sound OF pattering rain;
'Tis q mothers tender plant
To her child, without restraint.

County Commissioners RepOrt.-As
prom ised last week we lay before our readers
the Report of the omm issoners of Wood Coun
ty. Owing to the extreme length of the Report
Of the Ivestigating Committee, Messrs. TYLER
and LAsKEY, we shall be compelled to continue
it through two or three weeks, the first install
pant IN annaar - ---------s tt5s'SS. TrS
therefore request each subscriber to carefully
preserve every copy of the papers containing
said reports. that he may be the better able TO
judge for himself of the capablity, honesty, &c
of our public servants in this county.
Not great while ago Judge LATTY, who is
an experienced Auditor, upon a glance at the
condition of affairs in our county, remarked that
they were in very bad shape, and that we would
have trouble before long
Last fall, after the usual time for the Commis-
sioners report to be published, we inquired of one
Of the officials what was the reason of the delay
The reply was that the Commissioners would
not have their Report published this year in or
der to save the expense of publication. How
extremely economical!

a Nnd Family Mistory.

The New Orleans Picayune tells the
following; Shortly after the close Of the
war Mrs. Beach, living near Carrollton,
went insane. The cause of her derange-
ment was attributed to the loss of her
husband in one of the numerous conflicts
in Virginia. Notwithstanding the I'M
sound condition of her mind she went
about her daily duties as usual, taking
care of her children (she had two, Q boy
and girl), and sewing for their support.
1t was only in conversation that her in
trinity was apparent, and her utter aver
sion for society. Naturally weak and
delicate in her organization, her over
taxed strength gave way under the ar
duous work, she performed, and day by
day her thin, pale face grew careworn,
and her soft and silent. footsteps drew
nearer and nearer to the grave. But to
all inquiries of friends about her health
she would shake her head and say, IN
well; | can't die; who would care for
my little ones?" The sad and lonely
life of the woman excited compassion,
but she would take no aims. She tolled
early and late. But not great while
since she sent for a gentleman living a
short distance from her, and when he
arrived said to him, " am going to die
now my children are provided for. In
less than two days she was dead, and
cotemporaneous with the, fact came the
intelligence that by the death OF an uncle
her children had become the heirs to a
large fortune in Maryland.
