Gates Pimples, Spots, Scorbutic Dryness, Indu-
ration of the Catanecus membr ane. ETC., dispels
Redness and Incipient Inflammation, Hives,
Rash, Moth Patches, Dryness of Scalp or Skin,
Frost Bites, and all purposes for which Salves
or Ointments used; restores the skin to a
state of purity and softness, and insures contin-
ued healthy action to the tissue of its vessels on
which depends the agreeable clearness and vi
vacity of complexion SO much sought and ad-
mired. But however valuable as remedy for
existing defects of the skin, H. T. Helmbold g
Rose Wash has long sustained its principal
claim to unbounded patronage, by possessing
qualities which render it Toilet Appendage OF

combining in an elegant formula those promi-
nent requisites, Safety and Efcacy-the inva-
riable Accomplishments of its use-as Preserv-
alive and Refresher of the Complexion. 1t is an

DOTY'S WASHING MACHINE,
Lately much Improved-and the New
Universal Clothes Wringer

Improved with RowELL's PATENT COG WHEELS,
and the PATENT STop, are now unquestionably
far superior to any apparatus for washing
clothes ever invented, and will save their cost
twice year, by saving labor and clothes.
Those who have used them give testimony as
follows:
"We like our machine much; could not be
persuaded to do without it and with the aid Of
Doty, we feel that we are masters of the posi-
ton. Rec. L. Scott, Bishop n. r. Church.
''In the laundry of my house there is per-
petual thanksgiving on Mondays for the inven-
n."-Rev. Theodore l.. Cuyler.
"Every week has given it stronger hold
upon the affections of the inmates of the laun-
dry. Y. Observer.
81 heartily commend it to economists Of time,
money and contentment." Rev. DR.. Believe.
"Friend Doty-Your last improvement Of
your ASKING Machine is complete success.
assure you our Machine, aftera years use,
is thought more of to-day than ever, and would
not be parted with under any circumstances
-,Solon Robinson.
The N. Y Weekly Tribune, of Dec. Is, 1869,
in answer to a correspondent, says: "Of WASH
ers, there is none to be compared with Doty's."
PRICES-A Fair Offer.
If the Merchants in your place will not furn-
ish, or send for the Machines, send us the retail
price, Washer $14, Extra Wringer So, and we
will forward either or both machines, free of
freight, to places where no one is selling; and
so sure are we they will be liked, that we agree
to refund the money if any one wishes to return
the machine free of freight after months
| trial, according to directions.
No husband, father or brother should peynsa

The Local Election.

The electionin Perrysburg township passcdoh
very quietly ,only about six tenths OF the aggre-
gate vote being cast.
The contest m Iinlv existed on Representative
and Prosecuting officers. The Democracy nomi-
mated one Of cur o'd and most respected citizens,
MICHAEL IiAygs,. Esq, With the hope that his
well known and deserved popularity would in
duce the Republican citizens Of Perrysburg to
desert their old fellow laborer in the party ,JoHS
NoRRIs, Esq. In that conclusion, however, they
did not succeed to any great extent, as Mr.. NoR-
RIs vote was only 26 less than that cast for Gov.
HAYES.
SO in the case Of Col. SHANNON, the Rcpubli-
can candidate for prosecutor, the Democrats nom
mated Perrysburg man. II. II. DoDGE ESQ.,, to
run against him, with the hcps to defeat him By
. combination Of the numerous vuters Unidentified
With DoDeE in religious sentiment those engaged
In the violation Of the liquor laws Of the State,
and those who we're personally opposed to the
Colonel. In that they were also disappointed, as
on counting the vote Col SHANNON was found to
be only 80 behind that cast for Governor.
The Republican vute of Perrysburg townshir
on Governor is nine lesSthan that cast for Gov.
ernor HAYES in 1859, while the Democratic vote
is eighteen in excess Of that cast by them in the
eame rear.

The Raging Fire Fiend |!

The unusually dry weather prevailing for pc
ri' Of more than two months past, is producing
disa Irous results several lines Of railroad and
on the woods and prairies Of the West, where,
from tie ahsenceof ter, the fire fiend has oc-
cAsionei enormous losses.
At several points on the d. & N. road fires have
perva ded winch have destroyed some 800 cnrds
OF wood, damaged tue track and retarded the pro.
gress ofthe trains.
On 5he Lake Shore and Michigan Southern
road there has been many fires and much We ol
and other property destroyed. On the Wabash
railroad and in proximity Herewith, the fire feud
seems to have reveled in the very wantonness Of
destruction, thousands of cords of wood, miles q
fence and many buildings have been DESTROYED
The frightful condition Of af'lirs on this road
my be inferred from tue following from the Fort
Wayne GGztte:
'rhe country is all burnel ND between \, "
Haven and DeaInce. A conductor reports that
hve miles Of fire were running behind him as he
came between Defiance and Emerald. The lines
are all down and we have M word or knowledge
of trains. Number 10, regular through freight
train, is near Wo1dburn. Sixteen cars Of corn
have been burned 10 the ground. Engine No. 26
ia rff the track. WoOdbuIn is burned TO the
ground. Two of the finest horses in the country
were burned todeath, before they could be res
ened. People were running to the liver, while
animals, BEARS wolves, &c, are running to the
ftreams for protection. The yellow, seething
Missing flames are rushing over the praIries like
an avengiDg angel, carry ing destruction in thelI
track"
Dispatches from Detroit ON Wednesday report
n large section of Michigan east of Saginaw in a
most distressing condition. Large sections u
country have been swept by fIe, and Saginaw
city was only saved by extraordinary effoIts o
her citizens. The Furnishing villages Of For
resville, White Rock, Elm Creek, Sand Beael
md Huron City arc reported entirely destroyed
and others partially burned. A number Of live.
are known to bs lost, aud it is feared the worst i.
not known.
Passengers travelling over the New Albany &
Chicago road report that prairie and wood fires
are raging along the line between New Albany
and Lafayette, and that miles upon miles of fence
stacked grain, cornhelds and not a few houses
and barns have been swept away.

Prompt Justice.

The Democratic papers have been raising a
great outcry about defauIting Republican uffic-
ials, among others the late Paymastcr HoDGEs
has figured very conspic1ously. By the follow
ing dispatch from Washington, twill be seen
that the proper authorities have acted promptly
in the case, and the swindsr lIorGts receives a
Just punishment. Will our Democratic brethren
show any such example within their Official
circlc3
The Washington dispatch is as follows:
VAsuINGToN, Oct 9.-The court t-mnrtal which
recently tried Mr.. Hodges tor emhezzlement. sen.
fenced him to be cashiercd To foriet all pay
and allowances that may be due him at the date
of sentence, to be imprisoned at hard labor for
ten years in such peniteutiary as the proper au-
tbority shall direct, and thereafter to be mpris-
oned in such penitentinry until he shall refund
to the United States the amount Of his cmbczze-
ment, S445, 500. The latter would be equivalent
to imprisonment for life. The PRESIDE Mt, there
fore, to day disapproved this part of tie finding
but approved that which consigns him tn the peni
tentiarV at hand labor for ten years. Tue peni
tentiary at Albany is designated as the place o.
confinement.
