"RIP,VAN WINKLE", on the Whisdey Ring,
is rather romantic in its conception, and per-
haps well enough for its style, but its mode of
handling the saloon subject does not COM
mend itself to our taste The evil is a suifi-
ciently serious one for grave treatment. Be
side. our young friends chirographY is rather
blind, and il requires too much time to unrid-
J. die the thing. Printers have too little time
for delberation and stndy over careless manu-
script
FIRE-While Mr.. J. A, SHoECRAFT and Ia;
ly were absent from home on Saturday even
ing last and their house, upon the Austin
burg road, near that of Mrs. j. b. Watrous,
was in charge of the children, it took fire
from defect in the pipe or chimney and was
consumed. The furniture in the first story
was saved. Considerable repairs had just
been put upon the house, and the family had
but recently moved into it, There was no
insurance, and the loss will probably be some
$1,000. besides being turned out OF house and
home at this inclement season of the year.

of that city. She, however, discovered her
pprsller. and succeeded in eluding him. The
story here is, that the fugitive having been en-
trustsd with considerable amount of money
and gold watch. took the cars for Erie, and
there finding female acquaintance. took a
psw departure fer Cleveland. resulting as
stated. The watch, we learn, has been secur-
ed, but the iruant is still upon the wing.
FAILuREs.-We have never heard so many
tpmplaints as of late, from our subscribers
about the failure of the Telegraph to reach
them. That they should be delayed some
times, in these short days-days of Thanks
giving and Presidents Messages not
be surprising, but that total failures should
q occur for successive weeks, Is not little un-
accountable. II is a little grievous that those
who wish 10 read our paper cannot have the
