FIRE ALARM.-Now that we have a
Steam Fire Engine, and our town is
gradually becoming citifed, it would be
a good idea for our citizens to know
where to look for a fire when one occurs.
Our town is divided into FIVE Fire Dis
tricts. and in. ringing an alarm of fire and
designating the locality of the same. the
number OF taps Of the bell, after ringing
a general alarm, shall correspond with
the number of the district in which the
fire is located. This is a general rule,
but has not been followed heretofore.
For the Information of those concerned
we give below the different districts:
District No. I, north of William and
vest Of Sandusky streets No. 2, west
Of Sandusky and south Of William No.
8, south of William and east of Sandus-
ky; No. a, east of Sanduslzy and north
of William !; No. 5, all that portion of
the town east of the river.

GENIUS CAGED.-There IS a poet in

ly bent on rushing into print He sends
us two Of his inspirations this week and
conveys herewith the dreadful intima-
ton thaShe is preparing three more for
our next paper. As specimen of his
poetic fervor and Of what we are to ex-
pect from a muse which can thus set pris-
on bars at defiance. we subjoin the follow
ing Homeric stanza:
Here in the prison cell I set,
Waiting. waiting always for my trial yets
Must live here like dogs and rats
Live here all the time with coming rats"
We forbear any further quotations
from this new claimant for literary hon
ors. Such literature is too heavy for
these columns. It is not. however, a
novelty. We know Of poets out of
prison who do but little better.

A Note of Warning

The following which we copy from the
Wheeling Register, should be suggestive TO
our people. We cannot afford to lose the
Convention, because if We do, we misrepre-
sent large portion of our people. If the
Convention is voted down, the obi act of the
Flick amendment Is defeated and large
class Of our citizens will DO still deprived
of their political rights.
cit is time that the Democrats and Con-
servative men Of this and every other couu-
" In this State were waking up to the i'm
portance of the question to be voted upon
on the 24th inst considered rs n marty is
sue. The apparent apathy that preyadcs
many localities where the friends of the
Convention are largely ia the majority must
he shaken off. If the Convention is beat
en-, that result will be substantially radi-
cal triumph, aud will be so claimed. II
Will also Indicate the probability OF the G.
lection of Radical Legislature next fall.
a Radical Legislature under the present
Constitution aud having the Courts under
control, will inevitably restore the disfran-
easements and all the odious legislation Of
the past. The defeat of the Convention will
he the entering wedge 10 restoration of
the old order of things, the rc-cnac,ncnt of
the test oatbs, the prescription Of the citi-
zens, the tyranny of the Registrar. and the
whole catalogue of iniquiiies from which tue
State was freed by the Democratic victory
last year. Can you, dare you entrust that
party With power again before the Consti.

a colorcd fellow citizen went in,o = store
and finding the merchant, as he supposed
too busiy engaged with a customer 10 at
tend TO his wants, proceeded to Gil his pock-
cts with sundry valuable articles living on
the counter. 1t was dexterously done. bp.
the vigilaut eye of the owner saw what
transpired. As the gentleman was nassinr
out of the door with his booty the merch-
ant arrested him made him unload. and
then handed him over to the tender mer-
cies OF the law. The thief was indicted ard
arraigncd before a court * jury of his peers.
The facts were proven as above stated. The
learned Judge charged the jury as follows (:
