WHEN CHURCH SUBSCRIPTIONS ARE
BINDING.-A case has recently been de-
cided by the Supreme Court Of Ohio in
volving the validity of subscriptions for
church purposes. The general princi-
pie established is, that after church has
incurred any liabilities on the strength
of subscriptions, these subscriptions are
legally binding In the case decided,
the subscription was for the payment of
a church debt, and the court held that
the subscriber was bound to pay. A
subscription may be withdrawn before
there is an Indebtedness, but not after
wards.

Somehow the horses in this section
are catching the spirit of Ego ahead"
On last Saturday afternoon a team be-
longing to Mr.. Richards, started from
the furnace, and took a route up Frank
lin street, then down Main street by the
west sidewalk, at s-speed that terrified
old ladies and small boys. Fortunately
the side walk was nearly destitute OF
people, but a sewing machine belonging
to Mr.. N. B. Tyler, vas knocked over,
and damaged some. They finally
brought up by the engine house. In
trying to leap yer an open buggy they
fell short oftheir calculation and fell on
it with their whole weight, utterly de-
molishing it. On Sunday eve a team
belonging to Kistler and Harris ran of,
damaging the top and dishing a wheelo Of
a splendid new carriage.

Railroad Matters.

The Ashtabula, Youngstown &
Pittsburgh R. r. Co. appear to be
pushing their enterprise with much
energy, and indications favor the early
commencement of work on the line,
and the completion of the road at no
distant day. Ameeting Of the stock
holders was held in Ashtabula, on
Wednesday last. Mr.. McCreary,
President of the Company, said he
had been in correspondence with Mr..
n. Randall, of Syracuse, N. Y, a
railroad man Of thirty years expert
ence, who was willing to undertake
the building Of the road from Ashta-
bula to Youngstown, for the sum of
S4OO, 900, payable in given amounts Of
cash, stock and bonds. This sum has
been apportioned as follows: $780,
900 to Ashtabula county, sufficient
sum to tie the road to Bloomfield
$50, 900 between Bloomfield and
Youngstown, making 5000 900. The
Lcu4AAlAu6 S4oofu1V VI E~EootNe1 ACAAA
ed, has been pledged in Pittsburgh.
A conditional contract has been en-
tered into for the completion Of the
road to youngstown, including rolling
stock equal to three trains of cars. de-
pots, docks, wster-tanks, &c. The
Company has purchased the five
miles Of the Liberty & Vienna r. R.,
from the Girard Crossing to YOungs-
town, at a cost of $4,000 per mile.
This gives them the cheapest and
most feasible right of way through
Youngstown that could perhaps have
been secured
The railroad committee appointed
at a late meeting of the citizens Of
Warren, to raise subscriptions here in
aid Of this enterprise, called a meet
ing for yesterday evening, but as we
had to 60 10 press before the meeting
was held, we are Of course unable to
report what was done. Hist to be hoped
however that some definite and ener-
getic effort will be made to secure the
building Of the road through Warren
