WoRRALL 4 Enthusiastically,
we dropped IN on Worrall & Nc
Vey, blacksmIths, who are carrying

there found FIVE frst-class work.
men busily engaged in the various
BRANCHES of the business. Mr..
WorTall very kindly stopped his
work and explained to us the mys-
terles of Beach's Patent Axle Guage,
of which we have heard so much,
and which we would like to here
portray, had We space. Suffice it
to say that Its use gives this firm
great advantage IN the way of set
ting wheels, over others who do
not use it. We noticed that a por-
ton of their forcs was engaged in
IRONING q light buggy for Leonard
Sigler, and on which was being adj
justed a pair of Powers Patent
Springs, which are fast becoming
all the rage in this locSluy. 1t is

of blacksmithIng promptly, from

MCCoNNEsvILLE, Ono,
Feb. 9th, 1871.
Ed. Conservative In your issue
of Feb. Ord, you publish from the
Pitts. Christian Advocate an article
under the caption of singular Cir
cumstance." That this was origin
ally published, and you requested
10 publish the same, to the preiu-
dice of Unlversallsts, l can not
doubt. L am a little surprised that
the well known Orthodoxy of the
Methodists is becoming shaky, and
|.clasping hands with the Spiritual
lists. When the Spirituallst reads
the account you give, narrated in q
Methodist journal as a matter of
fact. he will 1nwardly exclaIm,-
The world still movesl" There is
nothing 80 singular after all in
what this clairvoyant medium saw.
If you turn to Bpiritualistic journ-
ais you will find recorded more
singular circumstances than this
one. Why do not our Methodist
brethren, and you, copy their reve-
~lations? One is just as true as the
other. The matter rests Just here i:
They could not be so well used to
prejudice the minds of the people
against Universalist interpretations
Of Christianity. The object of the
article is to make the readers be-
lieve that U~nlyersalists are both
turbulent and opposed to personal
salvation. This we most emphat-
ically deny. We know of no other
salvation than personal salvation
Our clergy clearly and distinctly
urge the necessity ofpersonal saliva
ton. Not salvation from endless
.damnation, but saved from sin thro'
Jesus Christ.
In the main, l disbelieve the ac-
count. 1t savors too much of the
'paralyzed tongue" that was so
thoroughly ventilated in the col
umns of thS Cincinnati Commercial.
Names and place had been gwen.
But no one knew of it, save the
Rev. DR.. Wirener, of the Presbvte>
rian Church. He was the mighty
man that God obeyed by paraIyzing
the tongue of Rev. Moses Park, of
Athens, Pennsylvania. The Oldest
inhabitants were a~stonished when
they heard the story. The records
of the Masonic Lodge, of which Mr..
Park was en- honored member, were
overhauled, but nothing Of the kind
was revealed.
There r two sides to a story,
ana, for the sake Of truth, l propose
TO inquire into this singular Cir
cumstance." L can not CONCEIVE
why it is that persons calling them
selves "Evangelicals" will resort tc
the lowest methods and stab US in
the dark, but dare not meet us in
manly debate or argument, unless
IT is that "Error breads tho light"
1t may be that UnIversalists some
times rIdicule the Methodists. But
do not the Methodlsts often give
occasion for r;diculs 2

LAST Sabbath Rev. Henry Coop
er preached his first sermon on his
second year in MeConnelsville.-
Just previous to the sermon, the
Trustees of tho Church read a res
port of the financial proceedings Of
the Church for the year past, and
stated that a subscription paper
might be found at Adair Brothers
Book Store, on which all persons
desiring to subscribe anything to-
ward Mr.. Cooper's salary for the
ensuing year, could do go. After
this statement beng made, Mr..
Cooper arose and said that he do.
sired the Trustees to understand,
that in receiving subscriptions to.
ward his salary, they should re-
ceive no money from any one who
made his money, directly or lndi-
rectly, from the Liquor Traffic, that
he considered there was blood on
such money, and that if any one
subscribed money TO be derived
from the traffic, that be desired the
Trustees not to coltect it, but to
Immediately erase the sub
or mark it paid, and that
he would have the amount deduct
ed from his salary. He said that,
Unpleasant as it was to make this
statement, he could nos consIstent-
~, as a Minister of the Gospel, do
otherwise. He said he had entered
into the war against the Traffic,
and that he intended to continue
the fight as long as the enemy ex-

AT the election of School Direct
ors for this School District, on fast
Saturday, Hon. F. w. Wood and
John Boone received B9 votes out
of l23 cast. Everybody, almost,
supposed there would be but the
one ticket run ; but some parties,
who have not the interest of our
public schools at heart, got up a
ticket secretly, running Epplng P.
Brown and Richard Bible, two col
Ored men of our town, and would
have elected them had not the trick
been found out. We understand
that the running of Brown and Bis
be was without their consent or de-
sire, and that, had they known it,
they would have put 3 stop to it,
But the best LAID plans of mice, men

and, fortunately for oar school mt
e@rests, this one was no exception to
