Communication.

The following communication was
handed to the Farmer, but refused pub
lication:
MEssRs. EDITORS: see in last week s
Farmer a communication relative to the
Infirmary, signed w. Cowen, which, like
his other communication, is full of false
hood and misrepresentation, a fact well
known to Cowen himself.
In regard to the Infirmary Matter
stated the facts in previous communi-
cation.
1t is curious to. see what an effect it
has on some men to elect them to some
little office. Gen. u. S. Grant was not
so much elated, nor did he put on half
the airs when elected President, as did
this creature Cowen when elected In
firmary Director. And how was he
elected In away that no honorable mar.
would have accepted the office.
In Hardy (his OWN township where
the Democratic majority is from two to
three hundred, he was beaten IA votes
by Republican. In Berlin where he
is well known, and where the Democrat
ic majority is about 75, he was beaten
81 by Republican, and in the balance
of the county he ran shamefully be-
hind the ticket.
/ am creditably informed that not one
of his near neighbors Of either party
cast vote for him, and had he been as
well known throughout the county as he
is at home, he never would have been
privileged to play the petty tyrant about
the Poor House.
Cowen appears to be concerned about
my posterity. He need not fear that
any of them will ever be educated with
other peoples money.
He also talks about abiting against a
file" Could he not give person little
mutton? 1t would not be SO hard on the
teeth.

g Mother, Sing 'Old Dog Tray.' y

The equanimity of the Sunday morn
ing worship in an Oberlin boarding
house was broken in upon by the young
est member of the family, boy of five
summers. The portion of Scripture
having been read by the theological stu
dent who had charge of these exercises,
he called upon the lady of the house.
who was a singer, to lead in singing
some hymn appropriate to the Sabbath
day. While the mother was trying to
call to mind such a hymn, aDar" called
out, Smother, sing sOld Dog Tray"
Not one of the boarders could have
tohistled just then had the reward been
Boss Tweed's fortune. But no longer
delay of the worship for hymn-singing
was thought practicable on that Sum
day morning. H.lg .gspgp g

Sudden Death.

On Saturday morning Mr.. j. Harvey
Philips near Paint Valley, started on
horse back to Holmesville about nine
o'clock, and when about a mile from
home had an apoplectic fit, and was
found lying in the road an hour OIL. two
afterward, senseless. His horse was
standing beside him. He had evidently
either fallen from his horse or had
stopped his horse and got off before the
fit.came on him, which is most likely the
case from surrounding circumstances
He was found and taken home about
eleven o'clock. Drs. Pomerene and
Wise were send for Immediately but
could do nothing for him. He died on
Monday morning at seven O'Clock. Mr.
Philips was fifty-eight years of age
man highly respected in the commu-
nifty, and a member of the Presbyterian
church. Buried on Wednesday.

A Few Hints.

1t is very common practice with
persons in entering Post Office to ask
"is there anything for me-" Now while
the Postmaster or his clerks are gener-
ally supposed to know everybody 1t
should be recollected that there are
times when Postmaster or his Clerks
will not know who "me" is, and it is no
more difficult for John Smith to enter a
Post Office and ask for John Smith than
to ask for "me" or "us." @Me" or "us''
family seems to be the most numerous
of any that visits Post Office. If a
Postmaster knows n name for certain he
will look without the person asking for
"Me." The public can better recollect
the names of the Postmaster and his
Clerks than they can of several thou
sand people. Plain English can always
be understood, and relieves the Post
master and his Clerks of a great deal OF
embarrassment. If you have box, give
the number of the box.

Our readers will see by reference to
our marriage notices that c. p. Daily
Esq, proprietor of our Marble Shop
has entered upon matrimonial life. We
hope he may have calm and peaceful
voyage down life's river, that his barque
may float gently, free from harrassing
storms. A good wife is the greatest
blessing that can be bestowed on man.
She is treasure more valuable than all
the diamonds and rubies of the world.
We therefore congratulate this young
couple, and hope that their cup of bliss
will ever be overhowing-that they may
go hand in hand to the end of long and
useful, life, so that when lies work is
done, many may rise up and call them
blessed. --r- -.---e~

The Great Chicago Fire.

Elsewhere in our columns will be seen
an advertisement of a new publication
published by the Union Publishing Co.,
being complete picture of Chicago be-
fore and after the Great Conflagration.
The Authors embrace the best talent the
City affords; Mr.. Upton being the Lite
rary Editor of the Chicago Tribune, and
Mr. Sheahan, the editor, each with his
part to perform, is sufficient evidence
that the work will be done well, and
not too hastily. In this respect, this
book will be far ahead of anything that
has, or will appear, and all who want a
correct history, will find in this some
thing that they can hand down to fu-
ture generations.
The work will be fully illustrated
by the best artists, to which will be
added correct Map of the City, and
mechanically, as well as historically, the
book will be second to none.
Our readers will find something in
this, without doubt, that will interest
them, and also be beneficial. We be-
speak for this book a sale, both home
and abroad, fully as large as an Ameri-
can book can possibly obtain. 12-14

Try this Trick.

The latest amusement is termed the
Printers Delight, and is performed in
the following manner: Take sheet OF
note paper, fold it carefully and enclose
bank note sufficiently large to pay up
all arrears for subscription, advertising
and job work. And what adds i'm
mensely to the feat, is to send along the
names of few subscribers, "with cash
to balance" Keep your eye on the
printer, and if you detect a smile, the
trick is success. Delinquents, try this
trick, and if it don't do your hearts
good nothing will.

curiosity was on exhibition in the yard
Of the Butler House. Mr.. F.r.seemed
particularly interested in the poor
hing.
