fairest way to decide as to the merit

to appoint men who possess good
judgment in regard to musical per-

that their decision may be impartial,

IMPROVEMENTS Ts.-Taking a walk to
the r. r. Depot, yesterday, we were
really surprised at the improvements
there-within a few weeks. New
cattle yards have been built, (which
will be ready for use in day or two,
the grounds graded and macad-
amized in the best style and so thor
oughly drained as to render any nui-
sance to accumulate there impossible.
There are few stations along any r.
r. line where the property of the
company is kept in such admirable
condition as that in Upper Sandusky,
and for this most desirable condition
at our Railroad station, D. S. Peter
son. the supervisor, deserves unboun-
ded praise for his energy and taste
and the officers Of the road, for their
liberality.
Mr.. M. O'Donnell has also made
creditable improvements about his
residence and property.
